What This Is

“Chains No More” is a soulful anthem of liberation and healing. Real Juan, Doc Gryphon, and D$ explore inner freedom, faith, and rising beyond the struggle.

-Real Juan-
Real yyc in the flesh representin
It can only bring you down if you let it
Physical spiritual mental oppression
Forsake vanities n your transgression
A life lived in truth is how you’ll learn a lesson
No critical thinking that’s outta the question
Confession deceived by their deceptions
Viewer discretion distorted perceptions
Cowboys n Indians like a modern day western
With intention prayers are manifestin
Wth a unseen force that they be messin
Yah is one ain’t no second guessin
The grief sorrow shame faced the rejection
Body mind spirit making the connection
With the sword of my spirit as my only protection
Started as a sperm n egg immaculate conception

-Doc Gryphon-
It was hard to start again
But now I’m a better man
If you’re still fighting through
I hope you know I believe in you

-D$-
Alarm goes off wipin the sleep from my eyes 
Another grave day digging that nine to five
So I hit my playlist its “Me Against the World”
Empty my clip against the page letters begin to swirl
Expelled from high school V.P. hated me
Runnin with the wrong crowd? Hindsight they played me
Dropped out of college with itty bitty knowledge
All for a girl and friends who’ve never bothered callin
Just an ass kid needed my ass kicked just classic 
Mouthy piece of trash but I always kept’em laughin
Days at the shelter community service
Learned about the homeless whom still have a purpose
Month spent at Kairos rehabilitating and waiting
Out the debilitating fear but it faded
I created and made a newer version of me
It took a while to reboot but now I’m livin free

-Doc Gryphon-
It was hard to start again
But now I’m a better man
If you’re still fighting through
I hope you know I believe in you

Chains No More

Chains No More feat Real Juan, Doc Gryphon (Prod Profit Money Beats / Madi Jade)

“Zero Fame” is a rebellious underground anthem from D$ and SpDoubleOG — rejecting clout for truth, purpose, and lyrical fire over gritty production.

I come with the might like my mic is Mjolnir
Flab no abs no cape just a primate or
Missing link was from outer space out of place 
In time or dimension the ascension of our minds connected
Telepathy but empathy has yet to be learned
Exempting nobody cause we all gotta learn
Earn the respect of the universe like JFK
Hey they muted first exploded minds like Rudy Rudiger
Just keeping it silent run history to legend
Then to myth, until no ones asking questions
Dig for the truth and research not meme search
Headlines ain’t fact and the facts is getting meaner
It’s all about the glam tits and ass have you seen her
Him singing hymns bringing limbs to the cleaners
We leopards in this chapter time to get cleaned up
Before the end is nigh and the nigh is getting meaner

-D$-
Rise from the ground growing from the dirt
Fly with the brave like we was Thunderbirds
Heroes for the world villains for the burnt
Zero fame ensured but we here for the word
Rise from the ground growing from the dirt
Fly with the brave like we was Thunderbirds
Heroes for the world villains for the burnt
Zero fame ensured but we here for the word

-SpDoubleOG-
I set it off in every one of y'all's cities (True) 
Respondin' to my thoughts, wav's gettin kinda sinny (True) 
Perpetual blitz backpackin' nigga hold up 
My conscience is my fist 
Playing scrabble to keep my "word up" F**k your fairytale ass, bitch 
You look Collected in the Vatican, unveiled yo fake ass trick 
Stomp the yard inside my dreams, nigga big bang 
Everything I stride to do, Indie big change 
SpDouble doesn't do "O"ppositions (Nope nope nope) 
Instead I am making "G"angsta propositions 
Send yo resume to The Beat Lounge 
We move different over yonder, holdin' steady sound 
It's Subliminal, Scattering the Material, 
Live it up like a miracle, memories like imperial 
Flying like a dirigible, flowing is astronomical, yeah this is so unstoppable 
And failure is improbable

-D$-
Rise from the ground growing from the dirt
Fly with the brave like we was Thunderbirds
Heroes for the world villains for the burnt
Zero fame ensured but we here for the word
Rise from the ground growing from the dirt
Fly with the brave like we was Thunderbirds
Heroes for the world villains for the burnt
Zero fame ensured but we here for the word

-Amar Monroe-
When the music touch ya soul you can't turn away 
No matter young or old better now than late 
Won't pretend I don't love it enough to wade 
Cause when the music touch ya soul you can't turn away

-D$-
Sweet nectar of bass with treble ears encased
Melodic transformation dancing in your brain
Your decadent that wrecked me, yeah!? 
With the world I’d like share, you
My soul forever cherished the day that I played
Tupac Amaru Shakur’s “Changes” got me to change
That’s just the way it is brail on my forearm 
Eclectic vibes with a pen Pumpkin’s smashed “Disarm”
The spirit of music a muse for the amused 
Lyric to tingle the soul with life from the abused
Ever since I was a kid I rocked hiphop (pause)
Back when pumps were reeboks with knee socks
Hyper-colour shirts, or them comfy Club Monaco’s
Play day at school lunch-time with Domino’s
You’re always there that means so much to me
Spanning generations sharing your vulnerability

-Amar Monroe-
When the music touch ya soul you can't turn away 
No matter young or old better now than late 
Won't pretend I don't love it enough to wade 
Cause when the music touch ya soul you can't turn away

-Madi Jade-
been makin underground connections like fiberoptics
treble, bass, but never mid (never that) 
music all in my mind like, like nootropics
y'all know ever since i started madi been a trending topic
a princess in the pocket of a beat that's from profit (profit's beat tag)
perfect thing to compliment a streetside sonnet
flip my notes into notes and go make a deposit (cash register sound)
my siren song scared all the skeletons out my closet
wasn't til i rode a .wav that i started to heal
found me a place where real recognize real
neck deep in the daw mic'd up talkin to god
linked with 4 other visionaries to write this song
the record's what's left long after we're gone
the only time we can control is tempo and velocity
do it today we're not promised tomorrow 
and like Amar Monroe said, don't wait too long

-Amar Monroe-
When the music touch ya soul you can't turn away 
No matter young or old better now than late 
Won't pretend I don't love it enough to wade 
Cause when the music touch ya soul you can't turn away

As It Is (Prod MC Mike G)

“Indian Act” is a hard-hitting protest track that blends sharp lyricism with unfiltered truth, confronting the deep scars left by colonization, systemic racism, and government control over Indigenous lives. D$ and Real Juan dismantle political hypocrisy, the legacy of the Indian Act, and the generational trauma of stolen land, culture, and identity. With verses that swing between historical reality and modern injustice—from residential schools to missing and murdered Indigenous women—the track pairs righteous anger with a vow of solidarity, standing up for truth, community, and survival.

Power control people corruptible
Ego trippin thinkin they untouchable
The way we treat each other is so terrible
For this to change it’ll take a miracle
We gotta get outta self-destruction mode
Depressed discouraged is how the heart grows cold
Healing from trauma ain’t impossible
People treated like property being bought and sold
Truths wanted back by popular demand
Hope n dreams stolen by their hands
They broke all of thy sons’ commands
Those in politics show they don’t give a – damn

That I could never treat someone like that
Got your back so you don’t even have to ask
All that I got gonna give you what I have
My Native land or my habitat
Taken it straight to the streets where the actions at
Lies die when they face the truth and facts
If you were in shoes how would react
Like being trapped in the Indian Act

Eyes low walking slow single file no choice
Rancid food little shelter voices into the void
Generational training perpetrated by your might
Love thy fellow human unless they ain’t white
Our heightened senses meant we needed to be frightened
Slain by the “righteous” cause they were so “enlightened”
Love things over us people vultures steal our culture
Made us experiments MK Ultra
Etched on paper claimed to be our saviors
Changed our names royalties delayed by makers
Interest owed like how government bank rolls
We raise our hands and you say look at them bitch and moan

That I could never treat someone like that
Got your back so you don’t even have to ask
All that I got gonna give you what I have
My Native land or my habitat
Taken it straight to the streets where the actions at
Lies die when they face the truth and facts
If you were in shoes how would react
Like being trapped in the Indian Act

High-definition flows in stereo
Authority comes n then it goes
Freedom’s a lie they sell to people
When it’s crooked path or the lonely road
When its only lies that your ever told
Paying a tax on some land they stole
You threaten to kill another morning Monday
That’s okay? Cause you was in church last Sunday?
Bending the truth just to hide your face lift
Your mentals on a rental and your past are all faded
Murdered Missing Indigenous Women with no peace
With Over seers the Racist Canadian Mounted Police

That I could never treat someone like that
Got your back so you don’t even have to ask
All that I got gonna give you what I have
My Native land or my habitat
Taken it straight to the streets where the actions at
Lies die when they face the truth and facts
If you were in shoes how would react
Like being trapped in the Indian Act

Indian Act

Born to a biracial couple, Real Juan was named. However, when he was adopted as a baby, his new
family renamed him Brian Ralston. He (Real Juan) would like it to be known that “I’m not trying to make
any puns about real ones”.
From an early age he observed his father write songs, and begun to rhyme (rap) before he was 14 years
old. Then at 14 he begun penning his rhymes to paper. He was “inspired by Run DMC, and [had] some
friends from Barbados and Jamaica, that I would jam with. [They had] turn tables and would throw
down some rhymes”. Which would lead Real Juan to “enter battle of the band competitions in high
school”.
Real Juan left music in the mid 2000s and was building houses. He would build houses until his ”mental
health took a turn for the worse. I got diagnosed schizoaffective disorder and ADHD n have been getting
treatment and have been in therapy ever since”.
In 2015 Real Juan would begin his journey back to music and hiphop, creating an album named
“Robotica”. However, with the success of creating a critically acclaimed album he “continued to struggle
with mental illness concurrent disorders, until getting treatment in 2018 in Ponoka AB Canada”.
The time Real Juan spent in Ponoka would be spent healing, and he found that in writing. He wrote the
album “Sick as your secrets”, and say’s “The therapy of songwriting itself has been a big part of the
healing being done in my life. I think my main inspiration is the highest Yah! I should’ve been dead many
times over from my struggles n situations that I’ve been in. Like, [my name] “Juan” means “Yahuwah is
gracious” n I’ve seen it first hand. I’m a man of faith, not organized religion. I’ll tell you the truth cause
I’m not a liar; I rap for Yah because I couldn’t make the choir, lol, guess that sums it up as what
motivates n inspires me!”.
To date Real Juan has 12 full/EP albums to date and it doesn’t look like he’s stopping anytime soon. Real
Juan has begun tapping into the music video arena and looking to add more videos on his YouTube page
@realjuan3909 along with releasing new music.
