Mis Ancestros Dijeron...

32 marks the age in which I experienced death up close and personal for the first time in an array of ways, leaving me lost in thought yet heavy in contemplation. I began to realize things about transition, time, spirituality, healing, growth and resilience that changed my whole perspective on life.

God Damn

Heard Cole GO OFF on First Person Shooter with drake and it inspired me to do my own remix to it! Had to get spooky wit it. Let me know what ya think.

First Person Shooter (Remix)

I heard Scary Hours 3 and was even more inspired. It really felt like bars were back. And after listening to my older catalogue, it brought back this hunger in me i havent felt in a long time and i felt the need get off.

Evil Buttons is my version of Evil Ways and Red Button By Drake. Lmk What you think and who you think did it better.

Are you a fan of the golden age of Hip-Hop? Reasonable Doubt, Ready to Die and Capital Punishment were some of the best albums of the Era. They are also the key inspirations in Josh Jacobs’ new single “What up”.  This is the third single off his mixtape I Know Now. The Song is a microcosm of a young child from New York who becomes enamored with Hip-Hop. “What up” exhibits a nostalgic combination of fascinating lyrics with stellar flow.  Josh Jacobs is celebrating the birthplace of both him and the culture he loves. Fans can expect a thought provoking song full of pride and respect.  Most notably, the song sparks a healthy dialog about forgotten Latino originators and legends.

(LYRICS) 



You ain't, You aint,

Bout that life 



(You ain't bout that life, you ain't bout that life, you ain't, you ain't, you ain't bout that life, you ain't bout that life, you ain't, you ain't, you ain't, bout that, bout that, bout that) 



No frauds on this side, I swear I'm good,

Ain't got time for no people acting all Hollywood, 

I put my pants on one leg at a time,

What make you think yours are Betta then mine,

Big money, big booty bitches,

I get those too,

But I ain't gotta get a piece of ass just cause I buy em something new, 

Good looks and a hard body run in my genes, 

So I won't settle for a basic bitch, to get in those jeans, (naaaa) 

Homie why always fronting,

You steady bluffing, 

Stay up on that poker facing,

And showing nothin, 

Shorty why you getting crazy,

I ain't ya husband, 

Should start acting like a lady, 

And quit the cussin, 

From Brooklyn, you could tell just by swag,

I just keep it simple,

Wasn't one to ever brag,

Try to keep it real, 

So you won't see me talking reckless,

Cause Everything you say you got ain't really that impressive 



You said you was a rida,

But you ain't doing nada,

You said you was a model,

But you just poppin bottles, 

You said you was a hustla,

But you ain't doing numbers, 

You lieing to yourself 

(You ain't bout that life, you ain't bout that life, you ain't, you ain't, you ain't bout that life, you ain't bout that life, you ain't, you ain't, you ain't, bout that, bout that, bout that) 



Why you acting so boujie like yo shit don't stink,

You ain't smelling like roses baby,

That what you think,

I love me a bad one, especially if she's stacked,

ain't got time to no attitudes, I ain't wit all that,

To get respect, you gotta give respect, and that shit is earned, 

So if you talking like you next in line, you Betta wait yo turn,

I don't care if your that entitled, Betta check yourself, 

Don't make go old school on ya and get my belt, (haaaa)

Shorty why you being shady,

It ain't for all that, 

Pull up in a new Mercedez, 

And get a call back, 

I get that to be successful is an attraction,

But why you gotta be so thirsty,

Wit your reactions,

want it, I ain't knocking all the work, 

Cause if you really live it,

Your deserving of the perks, 

Ain't nothing wrong being humble even when you got it, 

But even if you don't, then why you gotta lie about it.



You said you was a rida,

But you ain't doing nada,

You said you was a model,

But you just poppin bottles, 

You said you was a hustla,

But you ain't doing numbers, 

You lieing to yourself 

(You ain't bout that life, you ain't bout that life, you ain't, you ain't, you ain't bout that life, you ain't bout that life, you ain't, you ain't, you ain't, bout that, bout that, bout that)

Fear Remix 
Music video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJ5Hxn10Wro

Lyrics : 

Ima keep it straight to the point, 
I love my Island, 
so it's hard to see it hurting, 
especially when people dieing, 
doing what they can for some food and water surviving,
 and wondering where the help is, while they looking at the timing, 
no phone or electricity,
 you gotta be kidding me, 
looking at the news and I'm fuming, 
I can see como and FEMA, my people working
 but Jesus there ain't enough of these people
 to pick it up, they saying stuff to mislead you, 
this a preview of the future, is this what it's coming to, 
talk behind our back but then lie when we right in front of you,
 theres more to my Island then beaches, weather and woman, 
there's beauty, love, and  a history if you payin  attention,
 Im Taino homie, a Nuyo Rican from the NY, 
repping where I'm coming from, ponce to bed sty,
 if it were up to me, I'd probably fly out on a red eye,
 and do what I can to help em rebuild, so instead I'm 
using my platform to raise awareness and rep, 
for all my Ricans, let's come together in taking a step, 
in the right direction, for real, 
Potus want us to fail,
 to make a change in the world we must be changing ourselves, 
before we turn to the hate, we must continue to love, 
na this ain't just for ma island man this is for everyone
, times is harder then usual, in the mist the struggle, 
let us unite as a unit, so we can rise from the rubble 

Uh, homie why you always on some sucker shit, 
Uh, homie why you fuckin up the country, 
uh, your hole cabinet is full of puppets 
and it's looking like the muppets done translated to the government, 
to spread the word is just a number on me bucket list, 
and I don't give a fuck bout what I'm up against, 
a hurricane, a shooter, or commander in chief, 
cause we got 45 reasons just to see you impeached, 
you spreading fear, 
fear of being linched or sent to prison, 
spreading fear, fear or fallen victim to division, 
na I ain't a politician, but the time is ticking,
 till we're out of wishing things were different since the Donald's risen, 
he's been spreading fear, fear if we ain't rich then we're alone, 
he's spreading fear
 americas a house but not a home, 
so you'll either feed the problem or be part of the solution, 
talk is cheaper when you gotta pay your dues for resolution. 
Fear.

Lyrics:

Jay if you listen to everybody, you won’t be shit, 
they just reaching, want you doing what they say is recent, 
gotta ride the wave so they can see shit, on some beach shit, 
surfs up homie, if I wipe out, then its lights out, under sea shit, 
take a time out, till I find out what’s the secret, 
to success in this Day and age, I’m afraid failing so I’m ready to beat shit,
to the white meat, in a meat freezer, on a meat cleaver, rocky 3 shit, 
I’m knee deep in the game, like I’m praying, 
so he’s sees when I’m speaking my pain,
I’m c.c when I’m bringing the heat, 
and I’m beastly when I come off the chain.

They don’t wanna see me when I’m spazzing, tweekin’
They don’t wanna see me causing damage, reason,
They know I could really be a savage,
Eating,
I could put your crew into a panic, 
Screaming 

Competition, is none,
Stop pretendin your on top, 
Your puttin a front, 
Not the realist to come,
I’m as sick as they come,
Time to get Em to run, 
I was never the one,
Politician  is done bruh

Now I’m doin major thangs,
Going military like I’m major Payne,  
Getting pretty scary how I’m chasin thing,
Step into the world of the stranger things,

I maintain, but I ain’t the same, 
I been change, but it ain’t my name, 
I did thangs,  but I ain’t ashamed, 
I take blame but  im take my aim 
at any lame tryna taste the fame
when they don’t really tryna work for it, 

They want it to come to them, ain’t that Ironic,
They must high like they smoking the chronic,  
To think with that logic, the shit is retarded, need that Ebonics , or hook Em on phonics, and put down the gin and that tonic, stop being moronic, the topic is chasing your dreams and creating a profit, but ain’t about it, 

I been on a mission and ready to roll out,
Was tryna hold out, 
I’m ready to go now,
I’m taking the floor now, 
And shutting the show down, 
And never will slow down,
Till all of them sold out, 
They ain’t let me in, so I’m kicking the door down,
Jay got heart, I’m ready to thrown down,
Jay got skill, I’m ready to flow now, 
Jay got drive, I’m touching the floor now, and going at top speeds and still on the road now, uh
Like a mothera fucking motor sport,
They say they can see me being legendary, 
But I tell them all to just hold the thought, 
speak that shit into fruition now, 
See my vision With a pen and pal, like been endowed, while I’m spitting vile, with a crooked smile, plead the 5th and go straight to trial ma man WOOO!

Josh Jacobs -  Everything  (Remix)

Lyrics:
Fuck you looking at?.... Look...
Gimme some trash talking, and some bad comments, 
back talking, and some sad non sense, 
guilty conscience , a couple shots of tequila, shnopps and anything they got them, feeling brave enough to try and say 
what they think inside but don’t want to say 
in the public eye, because they all. afraid that if they say the words, then we gon throw em shade, 
then put it all in pot and turn it, 
Let it boil until we got it burning, 
Keep it working, 
until we serve it, 
Then let em taste it, 
So what’s the verdict, 
The hatoration is what we serving, 
 It’s the creation of what you heard and, 
What you said and, how you word it, 
But u don’t really wanna say that shit in person, 
Bitch get of dick, you just got it soft, 
I be spitting crowbars on my shit, 
Bout to pry you off, 
Get it, get it,
Hard work gon beat talent any day, that’s why I’m grindin, grinding,  
Alter ego doing what I say, my homie simon, simon, says,
Touch yo head, now touch yo toes, this right here for all my woes, thats my peoples and my struggles cause they always come and go, 
You would think I was a skitso  how I’m switching all my flows, 
I can see right thru your cover, as I leave you all exposed, 
Oh I spark your interest, 
And that a coincidence,
How you look at me like you into this,
You would think I was breaking the internet, 
Like I’m kim and shit, 
I got your attention, so much so,
 That You feel the need to troll, every time you see me when your scroll, uh, 
Ok, ok, ok let me get this straight,
You have that much time up in you day to leave a bunch of hate, ok, ok, 
Only person you should really hate on is yaself, if you ain’t doing shit, don’t come at me for putting on myself, 
Everything happen for a reason, 
If I’m doing my best, then I’m recieving, 
Everything that I earned, it got me cheesing,
I can give 2 fucks if ya be seething, 
We don’t call this luck, we call it reaching 
Every goal we set, then call it even,  
Betta get your life right, make a sacrifice, and stop wasting bread on the night life, 
That’s just my assumption, 
I might be buggin, 
how you poppin bottles for $300 
And ain’t invest in nothin, 
That’s consumption, bruh, 
That’s says something bout you,
So Lemme remind you, 
If you ain’t about that life, 
You got no right to judge what i do 
I do everything, rapping, promo, control my socials, pay for my photos, network, book my shows, I feel like Han Solo, 
I move in silence training, writing, exercising, 
and improvising my next move, 
while capitalizing in quiet, until it’s time to start ringing the sirens, bringing the violence, sounds of a tyrant, 
cheers from the crowd as I rally the riots, 
scaring opponents and acting defiant, 
breaking the mold as I pray to the highest, 
lord, please forgive em for they do not know they truth, 
they condemning me but do not see that this is why they lose... BITCH!

Everything (Video Link in Description)

Josh Jacobs - Bohemian Rapacity

"Mama I just killed a man, put a gun up to his head, 
told him this for the world, pull the trigger now he's dead, 
woke up to a nightmare, wishing I could go to sleep again,
 cause it was feeling better in the world that I was dreaming in, 
fuck it, make the best of it, let em talk his rhetoric, 
Ima speak my peace while writing rhymes and sending messages, 
to everyone that listen, from the Christans to confederates, 
we only have one life, it's time to cherish it, 
now lemme break it down, I done built this platform from the ground up, I was once a fish outta water, like a flounder, 
now I'm doing surgery, I'm on my doogey howser, 
sticking like a shit stain, homie check yo trousers, 
a force to be reckon with, been working on my power,  
lifting spirits up, like squatting victims from the towers, 
moma I ain't mean to make you cry, but if I die, 
I'll coincide amongst the legends while I'm staring from the sky like...

(Pause) 

Back like I'll I neva left, I just had to take a breath, and stretch, 
but l I ain't miss a step, I knew I wasn't finished yet, t
his ain't me you seeing, it's a silhouette,
 a shadow of the man that I've become, you smoke and mirrors with a cigarette,cross ya fingers, count ya blessings, this is chicken scratch, you gon know it, once I'm flowing, you gon feel my best, 
You ain't doing ish unless I say so, boss ish, lemme put you on the pay roll !!!

I be, on it, neva, stop,
Only, restin, when I, drop,
Let a , hater, go and, hate 
Let em, say it, to my face,

Get inspired, get you ass up off the floor, 
stop yo moppin, quit yo yapping, work and stay up on yo toes, 
yo, this a dope incision, put in open wound, and sown inside, 
and under the worst conditions, let em electrify, and come alive,  frankstein, Let it be known that I will be monster, 
I'll be the one implementing the  karma,
 I'll be re instating Obama, starting drama, rest of the game I will concur, follow it up the script, make it a movie, turn the game into groupie, watch as I give her the ugh, wait 

Mama listen I ain't meant no disrespect, 
men are coming from a woman, gotta put myself in check, 
all the metaphors I'm spitting got these people gettin vex, 
rap is rap, if you ain't cool with that, then take me off yo set, 
I was sent to strike an equilibrium with this and that, 
but all this chatter chat, got people up in arms and getting strapped, mama nothing really matters anymore, atleast to me, 
the only thing that I could do is speak the truth, and let them see"

(Lyrics)
Looks could be deceiving, you don’t know my demons,
Yawl ain’t been acquainted, you don’t know my secrets,
Ya just see the outside, look a lil deeper,
I done seen the bottom, ya just see the sneakers,
I carry the dirt from off the ground in which I’m walking on,
 hurt was like the gum that caught my step and kept on holding on, 
smiles that filled lens that took picture that I posted up,
Frowns that fill the room from all this drama had me choking up,
Things ain’t really ever what they seem, and ya would neva know,
Make your own assumptions from the things in which I chose to show,
judging by a screen and application you Use every day, 
wishing life was like snap, 24 then fadeaway, 
ya see josh Jacobs,ya don’t seem the man behind the man behind the mask,
bro your fucking killin’ it, you coming up, you rising fast, 
ya songs are dope, you give me hope, inspire me to leave my past behind me, Shit if they only knew the way to find me, 

(Hook)
Nothings ever really what it seems,
Ima keep on grinding by any means,
Ima keep on grinding by any means,
Ima keep on grinding by any means.
(Repeat 2x) 

Judge me by my cover,
See the show I give you,
Execute performance,
Giving you my visual,
If I ever die, you’ll see me at my vigil,
The man behind the mask was just an individual,
This music was my blessing and my curse,
I never thought it could,
Take the place of me, and then replace it with a Hollywood,
Vision of myself, as I live beyond my means, 
as I give you 16 of the hardest bars you ever seen, 
as I let my artist ego give me my identity,
Just so I can be excepted and people remember me,
My performances on stage were but great, but they could measure up,
To the performance I give everyday with puttin up a front,
Really think ya know me, all ya know is what I do, 
what I write and what I look like,All that I allow you to,
and the ones that really know me from my family and my friends , 
still don’t know the pain I hold from my past and all my sins

(Hook)

This is all I know,
This is what he gave me,
It’s in my control,
This is how he made me,
When I feel alone,
Im asking for him to save me,
Cause I don’t wanna go,
And leave the world thinking I’m crazy,
Battle with a stroke of genius
And living a normal life,
While looking at how society shaped us in all it’s light,
How culture change how we think,
On what we think is important,
How sacrifice turn to strife,
How fun has turned to indulgence,
How love has turned into lust,
How money turned into power,
Manipulation and stature, abuse to get what is ours,
How having it for your own, without distributing wealth,
Has led to a life of greed, and doing it all for self,
I question all my ideals, and the image that I convey, 
the person I think I am, as I’m going about my way, 
and grinding to be the best I can be, 
but now I’m sitting here questioning what does that really mean, 
who will I be, cause

(Hook)

Josh Jacobs - Best Life Remix
Lyrics : 
I’ve been told that I was impressive, In press,
 but these blog neglecting the rest of my story up in they text, 
from my recollection, I’m blessed, but from my own perspective 
I’ve yet to reach my potential and yet 
I’m Insured in recking this game how my drive has been so progressive, 
From lessons, immaturity and adolescence 
to conscious thoughts and some wisdom, don’t you box me into that section, 
I have my vices, ass is one of em, and yes I like it, 
along with a couple drinks and some women, it’s so enticing,
 I was scared of living my life on the edge, for fear of being judged, 
may not be a yankee, but I bout to hit this chick for fun, 
home run derbie, some of them thirsty,
 and others are tryna play so hard to get, 
but that shit just ain’t working anymore,
 came to grips with rejection and understood the meaning , 
if they ain’t wit it, it’s they loss, dont overthink the reason, 
and question if your good enough to have the baddest one,
 I done had my share of the baddest and they the saddest ones,
Nothings what it seems, cause it’s sewed up at the seams, 
all you see is the outside but you don’t see the inbetweens, 
a structure could Neva stand if it ain’t held up by the beams, 
without a foundation, how can you expect to build up a dream?
 Either you pay it forward or they put you on a lean, 
and neva let you off the hook, but you gotta be like Kareem,
 and play the game of life, put in that work or else you’ll the price,
 cause time is like the irs, it’s Neva checking twice,

No more holding back, ain’t no strings attached, let em snap,
 monkey off yo back, world ain’t on your shoulders, give it back, 
put it on your lap, or Re adjust it like a SnapBack, 
or just return the favor like a clapback, 
I’m living my best life, that’s right, never dead, wes snipes, 
name all in your mouth like tooth paste, what that crest like, 
if you hating that means I’m a winner and I Neva lose, 
Park talk, running like a engine but you Neva move, 
this is what I do, this ain’t who I am, and now I know, 
name dropping drop on def ears like Geronimo, 
I am not the number of my followers or on my likes, 
i am not controlled by the assumption of the Stars and Stripes, 
I am what I am except it to the fullest, 
blow it out yo ass if you don’t like it, take your finger and pull it, 
if I’m misunderstood then good, another thing that I’m good at , 
I’m amazing, I know I’m short, but you could not overlook it, im sayin

Cause I’m living my best life, got love all around me, no matter what I’m dressed like, with mo money, come mo problems , but Ima keep on doing me reguardless, homie what up (repeat)

Best Life Remix

Josh Jacobs - Great Prod. @2_one_2

"Ain’t been the type to be second best, 
ain’t never cool being 2nd place, 
Have your opinion on what you like, 
You, him, and I we got different tastes, 
What you consider to be a hit, 
I may consider to throw away, 
All I can ask is for you to sit, 
And jump out your seat when I’m pressin play, 
Cause I got some heat,
Your putting on repeat, 
While drivin in your car, 
And rollin down the street, 
And going to the bar or restaurant to eat, 
And showin to your girl, 
And she’ll be lovin me, 
And askin who is that, 
While sipping on her drink, 
And adding to the list of who she’d like to meet, 
To follow on the gram, 
While tellin all her friends, 
About this Spanish rapper rapping so intense, oh,
Pardon me if I offended you, 
Cause that ain’t what I would intend to do, 
 But right now I feel like an octopus, 
And everyone’s stuck in my tentacles , 
And I ain’t even reach my pinnacle, 
Ain’t even close to what I’m fine to do, 
Cause positivity’s commendable, 
Don’t like it then get off my genitles , 
I’m a path to do great things, 
Like the Great Wall up in Beijing, 
Not the wall here in the US, 
This for immigrants with a big dream, 
Keep ya head high, 
We ain’t 45, 
But we here to ride for you, instincts, 
And I’m representing what I’m representing cause I’m in sync, and I wanna 

Be great , 
be kind, 
be smart, 
be fine, 
go hard, 
get mine, 
be great , be great, be great 
Be saved,
Be loved,
Get paid, 
Show love, 
Re made, 
Be great, be great be great (repeat) 

(Background) wanna- be - great, wanna -be - great , wanna be , wanna- be - great, wanna -be - great , wanna be , (repeat) 


(Bridge) Lately, I’m all about my business,
Lately I’m all about my day ones, 
Ya don’t really peak my interest, 
So I be Makin moves till the day comes 

I got up early and wrote this ish,
I ain’t get sleep from the day before, 
I’m on a mission to make it big, 
A premonition to go on tour,  
Self motivated, I’m pushing myself to a limit that I’ve never been before, 
Underestimated, I been praying every night, and askin god to show you all, 
Who would of thought when I show my flaws, 
 people would really start gravitatin, 
guess I musta been my hardest critic ,
Or I Neva used my imagination, 
But now my energies are charged, 
ready for my service,
Stepping up my bars, 
Pulling back the curtain, 
Everyone applaud, 
I’m realest ever, 
Confident and hard, 
(Beat drop) 
Sorry if you feel that I ignore you,
Either I been busy, or I ain’t got nothin for you, 
I wish you the best, I speak my truth, 
And nothin less, cause you ain’t loyal, 
So why are you expecting me to call? 
(Uh-uh) 
It’s looking great for me, 
No it ain’t plain to see,
I don’t show everything,  
I do it blaitenly , 
Don’t need attention from IG to make me see 
That I am lit, cause all that is make believe , 
It’s been that way for me, 
I see you watching me, 
Either with love it with hate or hipocrasy, 
Made it a point to not live in monotony 
Just to ensure that no one is here stopping me I 

Be great , 
be kind, 
be smart, 
be fine, 
go hard, 
get mine, 
be great , be great, be great 
Be saved,
Be loved,
Get paid, 
Show love, 
Re made, 
Be great, be great be great (repeat)

Work Lyrics: 

“Take yo breath, this is it, this is as far as you get, this yo ending, reached yo limit, no commitment , no intent, no ambition, you ain’t driven, you ain’t really bout this shit, you ain’t sacrificing nothing, 
you ain’t never been legit”
That’s the devil talking to you,
That’s the monkey brain,
He puttin thoughts inside yo head that make you think that you might go Insane,
You ain’t tryna feel the pain,
Comfort be that novicane,
Stuck inside a cycle that’s familiar cause it’s all the same, 
Money, power, shorties, smoking L’s and sipping 40s, watching tv for 6 hours, ain’t up early in the morning, 
Sulking over where you are instead of knowing where you going,
Crying over what you lost, insteading of knowing  that your growing, 
This is therapy for me, 
Hurt is turning to a cancer, 
Always questioning myself,
When I already know the answers,
Things get clearer When write, 
When I think about it first ,
My potential is on high,
When I already know my worth 

(Hook) I put in 
WORK ( 7x) (overtime in background) 
It’s taking
WORK (7x) (overtime in background) 
I put in
WORK ( 7x) (overtime in background) 
It’s taking
WORK (7x) (overtime in background) 

Confidence is key,
I hope y’all agree, (yea)
Sensitivity is cool, but to a degree (yea),
Insecurities be really turning nothing into something  unless something is in front of you but you ain’t sayin nothin, 
They be throwing out the red flags like a challenge, 
Use your kindness for a weakness just to take advantage, 
treating people like they gold,
When some are below average, 
Some are real,
some you can’t tell by how crazy the mask is, uh,
Friend or foe or ex or hoe or someone that you wanna cuff,
Placing expectations or some people that don’t know enough, 
They don’t owe you shit, so get over it,
Family too,
Can’t stand by themselves what make you think that they gon stand for you, uh,
This is therapy, this is how im making sense, 
Of everything around me, 
Take it in so I won’t take offense, 
Striving for success, when I don’t know how it’s defined, 
Till I look deep in myself, and then apply it to my grind I 

(Hook) 

Relapse, detox, relax, see where you be at,
Addictive habits and vindictive acts of passion and cleanex to wipe the tears from your face as you face your ego and see that, 
Your ego is like a drug and withdrawals are making you react, 
Like mental patients with no patients ain’t taking no medication, 
And sit in soclution until you wait for a revelation, 
Predicated on saving your life when your in control of ya mental state,
But ya ego is preventing your elevation, 
But that ain’t no excuse, 
Standing still in your emotions will get you killed 
To survive, you keep you emotions in motion, 
And moving forward in stride,
While you keep a constant composure, 
Right,
Cause nothing that is worth doing will be done over night, 
I got it, 
Let me take the wheel on this road to life,
Ima hold it tight as I fight noise of this poltergeist, 
Putting in my hours till I put to rest the pain and doubt, and fight so I give something to talk about, ima put in
