CHAPTER 1 [Prod by: Flying Lotus] <Verse> Eye opening opportunities,all inclusive my brother, unity is up to you and me, Speak sincere love fluently when it comes to doin me, I was never one to partake in truancy,when I came, it was a game please let me explain, Education was more like a chance for relation,ships, That sailed across the sea as we, Navigated through the turbulent waters of adolescents, All the emotions in the ocean were always a blessin, whether low or high tide,Humility or pride, Our appearance should be defined, by what lives deep inside, No matter how hard I tried I never felt acceptance, So I chose to love myself,And let Yeshua be my best friend He was there in the beginnin and He’ll be there in the end, Even when I disappoint ,betray, and let Him down, He be like “I love you J. you know I’m gonna stay around”, You can clown if you want homie, thats all well and good, But I take comfort in the peace He gives, I hope thats understood,Pride for our neighborhood- Cause in part it made us who we are, Shine like a celestial being so much more than a star, so far, Its so dark,As we embark on the next chapter, Sometimes tears come like rain after the laughter, And at times life can seem to be a metaphor for a natural disaster.

CHAPTER 2 <Verse> Every now and then I hear that familiar voice again, Tellin me my futures bright, so I continue to write, Only share my insight when someone asks for advice, Every single day I stay fightin for my life, As dark battles light, make a left if it's right, My heart longs for a wife, and some kids to tuck in at night, A home to call my own, three prayers to throne, Lord knows I don't wanna die alone, So I chew on the meat and spit out the bones, Don't get too attached to ya earthly homes, We're predestined for good works, eternal thrones, And heavenly robes, become who you were made to be, Instead of religious clones, Find a sincere circle that loves you, And look out for more than just your own, Cause if not you as guilty as the one's throwin stones.

CHAPTER 3 <Verse One> I’m explicit when I rip it, But withhold judgement just a minute, Til you seek and find the definition, Truly listen to the vision I’ve been given, In regards to my life’s mission, I’m not in competition with my brethren or my sistren, The invisible coalition will no longer be missin, The nameless generation is embracing humility first, It’s been said before the Kingdom works, When we do it in reverse, counter culture swarming vultures, Let the dead bury the dead, It’s for the birds so they take that shape instead, Fly around dismembered bodies, Arm Leg Leg Arm Head, I don’t mean any disrespect But what should you expect from a Fayettenam Vet, Who’s been verbally persecuted by everyone he met, I bet I’ve exaggerated at least a lil bit, As a matter of fact, I know that to be true, But it hurts so much more, When the betrayal comes from you, And with that being said I simply bid you adieu, Especially if ya foot fits one of these shoes. <Verse Two> I wrote this faithfully ferocious, With hopes that one day they will quote this, Because it gave eternal focus, A paradigm shift that isn’t hopeless, By now I pray you’ve noticed that I have no ulterior motives, My intentions are pure & that’s a direct product, Of my desire to please the Lord, Even if I get ignored, I’ll continue to soar, Like the wings of an eagle forevermore, Consider the Ravens, their needs are met daily, Just speaking common sense, I’m not tryna convince anyone to pay me, Although I wouldn’t mind 20 bucks for every rhyme, Written from here on out, Gave CD’s away for free cause the message isn’t mine, Just offering Good News while I still have time, Billboard built a chart, many emcee’s wanna climb, But if that’s not in the card’s I’ve been dealt, Well homie that’s just fine.

CHAPTER 4 <Verse One> I walked into my closet to deposit another dark outfit, I didn't wanna hang out with,I doubt this, Will be the most poetic words, you’re ears has ever heard,, But to me potentially they can help you see, Hopefully you won’t notice me just my vocal tone visually. A decision to offer the vision on a place I used to be, Turned from and walked away, Even though my favorite button down, Is beggin me to stay, it used to turn my eyes a shade of gray, And make me do the opposite of pray, no communication, More intrigued by relations I could have with a woman, My khaki's gotta cuff and crease, So baby I'm pursuin, Hey girl how you doin?, We haven't spoke in so long, She thought I was livin right, But,I'm feelin like tonight, Might go so wrong, listen I've got convictions, And I'm not tryin to string you along, I'm just tryin to live my life, According to The Word and what I write, But I'm also being honest, I struggle with the darkness & the light, aight?!? <Verse Two> So as I write this next psalm, With blood on my palms, I know something went wrong, My actions crucified Him again, My decisions were the nails, And the hammer my sin as I drove them both in, How can you be my best friend, Even when I tend to betray you, What say you?,Your grace is sufficient when I disobey you, I know I can't play you, my heart is transparent, You see deep within the darkness its apparent, I've got some pent up anger cause I'm still not a parent, No wife, no kids, is the single life what I'm destined to live?, Tell me, are these selfish aspirations, Fueled like gasoline to fire by my own frustrations, My minds the location, birthplace of temptation, Actions in my heart, my sins manifestation, Father you know that it's Jason, and I'm pacin, back and forth, Smokin cigarettes til they become shorts, You are the source of my hope and my joy, You have angels by your side I need you to deploy, Cause the enemies surroundin me with so many decoys.

CHAPTER 5 <Verse One> It's like this I write this with a gel tipped bic in my fingers tight grip, As my wrist glides from the West to the East coast margin, Marchin words as they stir every emotion like the ocean, When pride becomes more alive than low or high tide, Die to myself on the daily til I rise to the occasion, Of makin music of the positive persuasion, Reminicin when Frank and I received a standin ovation, In the talent show at our Catholic confirmation, Only to come to the realization I had still never received, An explanation of true salvation, But thank God for His mercy and patience, Which led to sincere confession and eternal reconciliation, This is JClazzification... it seems to me… <Verse Two> Eternal MC's seem to be an endangered species, Ask God to release these-Chains maintained, In the crevices of my brain, then help me to explain, Why the pain still remains, Many hearts have been wounded, With no intention to do it, it could've been your best friend, You went to school with, the female you were cool with Til she outgrew it or the elder callin you foolish, Instead of giving you a tool-kit, People that dismissed every single one of your gifts, Just like Peter, we're all sand that Satan wants to sift, So if ignorance is bliss, then for me temporary misery it is, I hope to encourage kids, no matter where they live, Inner-city, outer limits, the countryside, Or the suburbs I know it sounds absurd, That words hold the power, of life and death, The days are growing darker and there ain't much time left, I plead with you be mindful of how you invest each & every breath, I can't force your hand but I can walk you through the steps, I'm not referring to AA my brother, but God bless, There is a Higher Power, Creator, Supreme Being, It seems like so many avoid the power in His Name, Consider Christ outdated, but He's always been the same, Today, yesterday, and furthermore forever, Sometimes I have to speak blunt in my rhymes, Cause the gospel may not shine if I'm tryna to be clever, I often pray that I was better, more of a wordsmith, You know a real deal lyrical linguist, But if I have no love what good is speakin in tongues? That's a whole another bridge to cross, I'll walk it when it comes, There's no need to play dumb, Every single day we live we serve someone, Whether the enemy subconsciously or the beat of our own drum, I'm just tryna make my life, Music that's exclusive to the Risen Son.

CHAPTER 6 <Verse One> I want you to listen to the Red Letters written there’s a position, I’ve been preparing you for since the beginnin, But the conflict is crucial like every decision, That you make on the daily, and hey can you blame me? These days we livin in are lookin like the last, Two things that matter are the Present, As well as learned lessons from the Past, No need to predict the future, Just stay on the narrow path, Your actions will always outlast every word that you speak, Prayer is communication, each relationship is unique, I’d rather tell you how I’m weak, Than teach something spiritual, I don’t live out in my physical, my faith isn’t mystical, Or comprised of literal legalistic religious rituals, I’m just a broken individual with some hope, Tryin to spread love- and any obstacle I face, I meditate, then rise above, Or at least that’s the plan, never make assumptions, About the heart of another man, How can you understand something that you can’t see, I’m sure of what I hope for and that works for me, I share what’s inside sometimes reluctantly, So I just sow seeds of truth because they’re functioning. <Verse Two> As for today lemme say that there’s pain in this pen, So I’m draining it then while explainin to men, What I say ain’t pretend, Perceptions reality or perceptions a fallacy, I won’t take offense if you train your thought to challenge me, Cover me with wisdom as you point out the principality, You see tryin to battle me, Sometime’s there will be sibling rivalry, Based on flawed theology, rooted in hypocrisy, We’ve been called to love sincerely, So our differences aren’t stoppin me, Even if you do not rock with me, I feel like I won the lottery, Life’s an adventure not a game, I’m not playin no Monopoly, All I have was freely given, I’m livin on intellectual property, So if you land on top of me it was orchestrated properly, Everything on Earth is unfolding just how it oughta be, So I’m truly not surprised that faithful servants are despised, And some put their trust in lies, Compromise their convictions, As they listen to what keeps their ears itchin, I learn more about myself as I pen each composition, I’m just playin my position, praying for Divine intervention, While making music without any inhibitions.

CHAPTER 7 <VERSE ONE> Sometimes we’ve gotta remind ourselves where we’ve been, While not bein blind to what’s upon the horizon, Old things have passed away, While the new won’t always stay, Everyday is an adventure in and of itself, Strivin for eternal riches instead of temporary wealth, Workin on my health as priorities shift and progress, It hasn’t been an easy road if I’m completely honest, I no longer look at women as a sexual conquest, Or approach my life’s journey like some sort of contest, I’m just doin my best with the tools that I’ve been given, Recite what I write til it manifest a vision, To encourage souls of those that listen to my composition, Always have purpose at the core of my propositions, Driven by the Spirit, my hope is that you hear it, And you once you get near it,Change is Gon Come, Like Sam Cooke to ear drums, so pay attention, Listen close please tell me what you hear, A sound that's profound if it's His voice drawing near, Trust me, perfect love cast out all fear, This is my second, my minute, my hour, my day, my week, My month, and to be blunt I think it’s finally our year. <VERSE TWO> A torch waved in the dark to spark a revolution of light, Tonight's the night, decipher wrong from right, And live accordingly, Some wonder why truth is simply ignorin me, I've asked so many questions, I've sought out all the answers, I've knocked on many doors, I'm not sure anymore, What I'm truly livin for, I need more forgiveness, Than grains of sand upon the seashore, Because it doesn't feel the same, I no longer feel ashamed, When I do things for my own selfish gain, At this moment I'm not proud of who I became, So come back and see me in a different time frame.

CHAPTER 8 <Verse One> Some people play pretend, They can be family, foe, or friend, Truthfully treasure ya time and be wise, With whom you place it in, memories from way back when, Can create a smile or a cringe, depression can descend, It depends on your perception, that words possession, Is like a parable, a powerful lesson, If it's bearable, be kind, rewind, as you recline lemme remind, That every single line is shareable, Sow to please the Spirit, and reap from the same, Renew ya mind until it's changed, And release others from their chains, I share my story and explain, The purpose behind my pain, These words are not in vain, The unseen will remain, temporary loss, Is the cost of eternal gain, whipe away my shame, As my mistakes replay within my brain, Reminded of my past, but alas it didn't last, I'm present in the moment as I grasp another opportunity, To live out unity in a like-minded community, And truthfully its up to you and me, so so so... <Chorus> Hello, goodbye, let me introduce you to the new guy, Hello, goodbye, let me introduce you to the new guy... <Verse Two> To be honest I don't appreciate, How you're always pointing out my weight, Like I'm not reminded of it daily based on my lower back aches, The shortness of breath it creates, And the amount of time it takes for me, To get from place to place, Let's address the elephant in the room, Which I assume is synonymous with my size, And if thats all you see in me, You're obviously only using your eyes, I despise simple minds, That base solely on looks and only judge covers, Without reading the books, The heart of the matter is what truly matters, I hope if your technologically sound, Then you're computin the data, I'm not doin this for likes or to spike my shares, I'm doin this for the outcasts bein treated unfair, And have nowhere to go to receive acceptance, So I speak God's comfort, receive this blessin, I'm just bein honest, not tryna teach no lesson, But if you've started second guessin and questionin, The way you've been treating people, maybe its about time, To make adjustments for the sequel, You can't hear none and see none, But, you can choose to speak no evil.

CHAPTER 9 Intro: I think to myself, creativity used to listen to me, But now it's turned deaf from the bullets objective of innocent death, The masses hope to make it right, But the ignorant insight turns left, I hear the voiceless utter their final breath, While those that are deceived say see, How can he speak if he can't breathe, How can we as humans grieve in peace, After indisputable video footage is released, Just like the beast that murders without cause, Another acquittal followed by misguided applause, Pause- For a brief second if you will, Imagine bein related to the deceased- exactly, How would you feel? <Verse One> They say life is what you make it, So risks I'm gonna take it,                         Write songs you can relate with topics to be debated,                                   We got bread so let's break it, whether food or financial,                               Reach out to those who love you, When facin somethin you can't handle,           Each verse is like a candle on the mantle in a dark room,                             Hopefully givin light like the 3 nights after sleepin in a tomb,                         Rise to the occasion keep makin calculated choices,                                   Become a voice for the voiceless, while blockin out negative noises,           Everyone's opinion shouldn't carry so much weight,                                     It's better to give more versus whatchu take, Work hard to get it, even harder to keep it, Reverse the curse if you intend to bleep it, Satanic strategies seduced by Vicki’s Secret,                 I pray everyday my wife is the next woman I sleep with, But I can't make promises, only dedication, Complainin about Sharia Law, But this ain't no Christian Nation by far, So think first about the statements your makin, Before they come out ya jaw, These are just simple observations that my heart and soul saw.       <Verse Two> I try and speak to God each day, And ask that I don't wander aimless, Not part of the blameless, but I strive to live my life shameless, J is Clazzified because I wanna remain nameless, Tryin to live with a purpose, Instead of goin on searches to be famous, What would I really gain if the platform was temporary, Speakin politically for me isn't necessarily hereditary, Although social commentary is potentially in my D,N-A, Him say I made so many mistakes I wanna take a break, And make amends today, burned so many bridges, To the third degree I see friends tend to stay away and say, My ears no longer wanna hear you speak in fear, When we were peers I read it loud and clear, As month to month became a year, And now you're no longer here, So glad our paths crossed like a deer, The moments were sincere, the love it burns deep inside, But pride denies, the wounds inflicted, Used to spend the night, but now it feels like I’ve been evicted, The hurt has shifted to prolific pain and gains bitterness, Within my brain, it's strange but my heart is dark and full of anger So it's stranger cause I let the unforgiveness linger, But if it's in His plan now I understand why I am-God's middle finger.

CHAPTER 10 <Verse One> Nobody wants to bake the musical cake, Cause it takes too long to creatively make, In this microwave society, they're defrostin notoriety, Just to see if we will violently respond to the spawn of chaos, Within the soundtrack they provide, Hip Hop's much more than misogyny, But obviously they wanna take us for a ride, And unequally divide up a slice of Patty's pie, I navigate my path using my 3rd eye, Speaking multiple messages waitin patiently for people to reply, Introspective when I pry into the chambers of my heart, It's like a white sponge dipped in black paint, man it's so dark, But I've embarked on a journey with Yahweh as my attorney, So I tell Him all the details so that He can learn me, I know the proper word is teach, what you think, I don't know how to properly speak, I made the mistake on purpose, To see how far your judgement would reach, So now you've been exposed within the confines of your own soul, If He can make the stones cry out in praise, Why would you ever wanna throw? Why would you wanna throw a stone at a glass house? Check it out... <Verse Two> Yeah I've got a sinful mind so I treat my thoughts like an IED, When I step on mines, shouldn't have to ask if you get it, Or boast that I'm gifted with the rhyme, let my lyrics define, This soul that was designed to have a celestial shine, Light brings forth darkness without being disregarded, We'll give account for every word and every deed, Done on this earth, so I'm steady sowing seed, You know my steez, then know your worth  The kingdom only works when we do it in reverse go against the grain, To maintain-we should bless instead of curse, Celebrate my life, when my bodies in a hearse, But if the tears disperse and you were a friend of me, Just let my spirit live on through ya memories, Hopefully I'll leave a liturgical legacy before my times up, New heaven, new earth, No White Flag's reunited, You know where to find us.

CHAPTER 11 <Verse One> I’m just A Typical person, grab a Mic and Rap a Port, Around some boats as they float, And the fisherman emote quotes of spiritual hope, Usin their scope of interest, To explain through the pleasure and pain, Of why they got in this, it’s easy to ridicule the religious, When it seems ridiculous, but read a chapter a day, And see if you can live this, I don’t need your permission or require your forgiveness, Although mistakes that I make may create, An opportunity for unity and reconciliation, Because honestly I personally don’t agree, With some of the statements I was making historically, So if you were ignoring me and my pleas for forgiveness, Just let it be known that I’ve grown and the errors of my heart, Have been shown to me, now I see, I wasn’t completely, Without judgement on “A Vision” from the REALITY ep. <Verse Two> I sow seeds with hopes of the Son flowering, Life is the big league so chew and digest, Instead of just devouring everything, I place upon your plate, Food for thought, take ya time and rewind then tell me how it taste, Don’t over evaluate if you can relate, To how I share my faith, I struggle on the daily, With my original mind state, but I’ve been given a clean slate, My mistakes are what He separates from East to West, To be remembered no more, So sure I play my cards close to chest(chess), Pieces get moved all across the board, With strategic plans to find peace after the war, Clutch a double edged sword, while the Lord does my bidding, Is it true forgiveness or bitterness from not forgetting? Spitting in the booth, saliva slides on ya eye lids, is it workin yet? If not, just keep tryin kids, Live a life thankful for the sacrifice that He made, To be honest its gonna be a struggle everyday, Let ya actions speak louder than the words that you say.     

CHAPTER 12 <Verse> Shout out to the sisters and brothers that are smugglers of the Bible,       Under the threat of a rifle, in third world countries, Where there's a deeper meanin to survival, And prayin for your rivals, where you can be beheaded,       Or have ya tongue sliced out, simply for proclaimin the love,                   The Messiah talked about,Where they have to reroute daily walks,       And be strategic when they talk, cause their bodies may be literally crucified,   No outline in chalk,Where Satan really stalks like prey, Meanwhile we do that,         Spelled out another way for like 10 minutes a day, And blame the enemy,When somethin doesn't go our way, We've got it fairly easy in America,           Wouldn't you say? Given the brief examples I put upon display,         Everything ain't always black and white, Sometimes theres a shade of gray,               Like the hairs upon my head or scattered within my beard,                         Legalistic Pharisee's more focused on the fact, That you crackin a beer, but don't see clear, Cause their conscience is seared,                             Sliced, cut up, and filleted, They the type that like a self-righteous parade, Takin notes on Sunday, stay aiming at the target, On a judgmental gun range, Shootin semi-automatic rounds at anyone that sounds different,                 Or refuses to bow down to the title of their so-called giftin,                         Listen this may seem like I'm bein a little harsh,                                           I'm only tryin to melt hearts that are frozen by Jack Frost,                           I even tossed in a corny punchline during crunch time,                                 Just to let ya’ll that all my rhymes aren't necessarily sublime.

CHAPTER 13( Intro: I am not who you think I am... and to me your not, who you thin, I think you are...So let's just be ourselves cause thats worked for us thus far, at least for me anyway… <Verse> I'll never understand why he shot his own man's, Point blank in the face, with a gun in his hand, But the gun understand was his skewed point of view, A legalistic pharisee, modern day to me and you, Religious rules & regulations, deceived by Satan like us all, Never received revelation of being a new creation,
 After the fall, It was obvious to ya’ll he had a crack in his foundation, A manifestation of self righteous separation, But justification comes thru who place your faith in, It's absurd to me that purity seems to be, Something viewed as unattainable, By you and me and everyone we know, I understand its a plan, to go high instead of low, Seek God’s face then watch self-control grow, While never placin expectations of your own on anybody else though, As we know, it's a narrow-road that not many follow, I stumble on the regular, but it just goes to show, My desire to feed the fire keeps me vulnerable, Hang onto them stones ya throw, keep judgement to yourself, Love your neighbor as they choose their own path, Be concerned with your heart and wait for the aftermath, Kept this in the stash simply cause I felt alone, My filthy righteousness is fightin this…welcome to the danger zone, I stand before your throne with modesty and honesty- Clutched in each hand, flow like milk and honey, Til I reach the promise land, We the people are the instruments of mercy in His band, If we choose to be its new to me, but it certainly ain't news to me, I was informed,I was warned, but I still touched the flame, Ignited all my passions and I wasn't the same, Burdened by my shame during disobedient time frames, But it came and went and then it came again, Some dying to live we live to die that’s the game we in, Some became a slave to their idol while abstainin from sin, I was set free by the Nazarene, but at times ain't seein my freedom, I guess I gotta find a balance and that my friends is the challenge, My walk is deeply personal, my feet have so much mileage, Cover me with wisdom don't offer me a broken system, If you’ve been done wrong just forgive em, Even if its easier said than done, Let’s do life together walk a marathon instead of run, How easy we forget that this journey’s not a sprint, I’ve seen a glimpse of eternal reality, thats why I’m not concerned, When someone tries to use their intellect, To challenge me and battle my beliefs, Its not my responsibility to make you believe, Only offer what I’ve received, speak my piece and then leave, But I’ve learned that I’ll return if you have sincere questions, We can seek the truth together and share our life lessons.

CHAPTER 14 <Verse> Divinely Orchestrated Eternal Representative=DOER Nobody Or The Artist=NOT A Has Everything Aligned Redesigned Eventually Rewind=HEARER The first three lines were acronyms that will shine, Light into your heart and His presence down ya spine, I live it how I give it there's no need to pantomime I'm opposite of that if you seek then you will find, Exactly whatcha lookin for but, theres no more salmon on the seashore, We breakin bread these days, our spirits staying fed these days, Prepare my own meals cause this lifestyle is real, There's no need for me to conceal how my soul truly feels, To some she was wild as a child, Baby sister, big sister, she wore both titles proud, Used her imagination when her siblings weren't around, Wore her heart on her sleeve, never let em emotionally tear her down, Daddy's little princess so she happily wore the crown, As she navigated the sea's of adolescence, Her Father would never let her drown, And this child's Mom was the same way man, Never let her down,Not to say that hard times never came to town, They just knew how to deal with obstacles as they approached, Stayed prepared for the fire,Cause they were aware of the smoke, You've gotta laugh through ya troubles sometimes and make jokes, While the life that you live each day is like the words you wrote, In love notes,be better than your last letter, Always thank your Grandmother, For knitting each and everysweater, T ell her that you love her and you'll never forget her, She was the one that got your Mother through all the stormy weather, I pray that I do better than I did last year, I’m living in the present moment, So I own it with no fear, vision clear, Preparations for the plans that my heart holds dear, If you’ve got some ears to hear, then listen to this composition, Discover who you truly are and simply play your position, Stay out of contention with your goals and your dreams, Manifest destiny it’s not as far away as it seems, So don’t give up yet, it’s so close you can almost taste it, I’m staying transparent I have no reason to fake it, That’s only my perspective but, I hope that you can take it, Book One is almost done enjoy the moistness of the cake I’m bakin, Let your loved ones smell the flowers now, Instead of funeral arrangements, And if your not satisfied with life just keep pressing on and being patient, Cause I believe at the end that everyone can make it.
