The first EP in the SCRIBES series.

After James lost his son in 2010, rap was not something he was able to do any longer. Needless to say, it had a true impact on him and he approaches life. Now that he found his art again, he wants to bring some of that life experience to the masses.

Follow the SCRIBES series as James continues to go full on tackling some of the biggest issues of the human condition.

The SCRIBES series will release a new EP the 3rd Tuesday of every month.

My first EP

This is my first ever solo EP. I am super proud of these songs... It's not just me destroying the booth or trying to show you how amazing I am... I'm really letting that all go in these songs and just being me, the real me, underneath all the other stuff there's this.

I really put my essence into this one. I really hope you all enjoy it!

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
You can hear my heart sing tales from a life that’s seen dark dreams
And a part of the heart I’ve been guarding,withered like some sardines
Out on a bay in the middle of may… I’m a little afraid,
That what I’ve been given to say is a little too late
Cuz we are never free until we cease to be these evil things that never let us see
Like Lennon: let it be…
The chest it’s best to let it breathe, so the heart can heal
And I pray to god that it will…
Until then I’ll scribble what’s real
I feel like I’m right in the middle of fields
The little child in me he is tickled, he giggles and squeals

Chorus
The sun beamin down, and some need it now
But the dumb lead em now, and the numb’s weeded out
I wonder meanwhile if one can be found
If one can become the sun and let love be the crown

Let love be the crown

Verse 2
But they thinking of necklaces, mercedes and lexus’s
It’s not what they have, they just wanna get the rest of it
Not about expression it’s about become the best at it
And I get it, I’m a rapper too, can’t you tell?
See, I wanna excel, and I don’t wanna fail
But what is shiny is behind me I just want my health
I just want to help,
I don’t want no golden fabric, I just want this felt
I don’t want the same, I just want it changed
It’s like the hunger games, every mother’s pained
And no one cares for another’s pain
And every other brother’s aim like the brother cain

Chorus
The sun beamin down, and some need it now
But the dumb lead em now, and the numb’s weeded out
I wonder meanwhile if one can be found
If one can become the sun and let love be the crown

Let love be the crown
