Everything I love is gone
Lost the vision, lost intention
Cuz I rolled up everybody's thoughts
And I smoked it like a blunt
Suffocating, it’s hard to breathe in
Try to be real, but even lovers can dim the dream in you
When we were young, we would
Climb up in the apple tree
Never scared of crazy things
Now I think I care too much
We smoke on what they think of us
I feel like
All my intentions are wasted
Trippin’ on the words that you don't even say
(Never be never be never be wasted)
And all of the hours, I'm taking control
They try to burn me out
They try to roll me out
They try to smoke me out but
Counting my blessings
Thank god
I like what I see when you're not around
Cuz you only try to pull me down
In the pool of misery
I used to drown out all my dreams
Never in me did I believe
Had to let go of everything
I had to burn down everything
To turn into super saiyan
I'm tripping but you never said it
We used to climb up on the apple tree
Never run from anything
Now I think we care too much
We smoke on what they think of us
I feel like
All my intentions are wasted
Trippin’ on the words that you don't even say
(Never be never be never be wasted)
And all of the hours, I'm taking control
The isms and chisms
Fizms and bizims
Slizims and blizims
They try to have me stressin’
But I’m counting my blessings

Runnin'

Have you ever found it
Have you really found love?
Do you ever doubt it
Or are you floating so high in the sky?
See I had stopped thinking about it
A million faces on the ground
They never gave their heart away
So I never gave you anything
Now all you do is hate me
Say what you want
I'm not runnin'
From love, love, love, love
I'm not runnin'
Runnin'
From love, love, love, love
Not like the last time
Well all you wanted was to learn about me
I won't commit to anything
And all you wanted was to get to know me
The broken hearts are on the dance floor
We're all dancing for a heartbreak
When we're runnin' from the same things
But I don't want to live that way
Life is not forever
Say what you want
I'm not runnin'
From love, love, love, love
I'm not runnin'
Runnin'
From love, love, love, love
Not like the last time
Oh if I gotta change
Then that's what I gotta do
I won't let nothing at all
Keep me away from you
Don't think you'll ever catch me runnin'
You won't catch me runnin'
Say what you want
I'm not runnin'
From love, love, love, love
I'm not runnin'
Runnin'
From love, love, love, love
Not like the last time

Walking around you’re the coolest on the street (oh you’re cool ugh)
Rockin’ your outfit from Japan (is that foreign though)
The one you bought on vacation last week
You’re still on your parents plan
All of the peculiar things
Seem to be alright now
Easy following the coolest team in the fair weather
Used to laugh about talk about us
Better catch up you can’t live without us
Pretty people
Pretty people
You swear swear swear that you know me
Pretty people
Pretty people
I’m swer’ swer’ swervin’ on you
With the big ol’ butt
You got becky with the big ol’ butt
Is it fake or not
Tell me is it fake or not
Move to the city you’re the coolest on the street
Torn up denim rock expensive style
Run from your home in the burbs had to leave
Smoke trees and watch anime, Melrose Avenue
Hundred dollar shirt at the thrift store
Keep those receipts from the thrift store
All of the peculiar things
Seem to be alright now
Easy following the coolest team in the fair weather
Used to laugh about talk about us
Better catch up you can’t live without us
Pretty people
Pretty people
You swear swear swear that you know me
Pretty people
Pretty people
I’m swer’ swer’ swervin’ on you
With the big ol’ butt
You got becky with the big ol’ butt
Is it fake or not
Tell me is it fake or not
Pat the powder on the face to keep the glow right (cake the face)
And she hit the tan spot enough to keep the brown nice (to get the melanin)
Doing what you gotta’ do to fit in
Dime penny worker use your body just to
Get up in the club or the spot
The club fireworks ain’t cheap
Boo trust, you turnin’ up or not (we turnin’ up though)
The catch up game is a must
You ain’t hip if you don’t fall for lust
The bird is the word swerve on the
Rings, kids, and things
Hollywood monogamy is a curse
But it’s worse when that new bag’s outta stock
Or the jock at the gym ain't on your clock
You got gains but you’re scarecrow space locked
The life style is a force but we still flock
All of the peculiar things
Are known to be real lit now
Steady following the coolest teams in our fair weather
You just can’t laugh about us talk about us
If you can’t catch or can’t live without us
Pretty people
Pretty people
You swear swear swear that you know me
Pretty people
Pretty people
I’m swer’ swer’ swervin’ on you
With the big ol’ butt
You got becky with the big ol’ butt
Is it fake or not
Tell me is it fake or not
The selfie stick is coming out tonight
The selfie stick is coming out tonight

Road

Don’t try to save me
Don’t try to save me
Don’t try to save me
Don’t try to save me
I’ve been walking
Down this lonely road
There’s no one for me
And there’s only the cold stone
Don’t try to save me
I’ve been walking
Down this lonely road
There’s no one for me
And there’s only the cold stone
Don’t try to save me
It’s not warm
It’s not warm here
Leaves are brown, colors gone
But your rays shine on me
And you wonder why I always want to be alone
You should know that
All my life, I’ve been running from
The ones who loved, afraid to trust, love
Still you shine down on me
You’re the LA sun that never wants to let go
I’ve been walking
Down this lonely road
There’s no one for me
And there’s only the cold stone
Don’t try to save me
Don’t you think there’s something wrong with me, wrong baby
I cannot cry anymore, tears rolling back on their own
Only know how to be in control, of emotional
But I know, that you’ll keep holding on
Can’t look you in the eye
Cuz this is the part where I break your heart
Cuz it was never meant to be, ooh never meant to be
In your reality
I’ve been walking
Down this lonely road
There’s no one for me
And there’s only the cold stone
Don’t try to save me
I’ve been walking
Down this lonely road
There’s no one for me
And there’s only the cold stone
Don’t try to save me

Ways to Go
04:53

I don't like company
When I got problems
Cuz I won't have much to say
To make you still love me
Don't take it personally
It's not what you think
I'm just scared and unaware
Of the future responsibility
And I want you to know
I don't really wanna take this anymore
Life just swings back and forth
Like a broken door
Said you've been there before
Need to do this one on my own
But I don't wanna be alone
We got a ways to go
Before we reach top of the world
But we got a ways to fall
Before we hit the bottom
Of the ocean floor
Of the ocean floor
Everyone's going out
In crowds
Looking for love
Just to slow it down
Even when it's too fast
Even when its wrong
So I'll call you when I'm ready
And I won't waste your time
But by now all my dreams are
Waiting on the other line
And I want you to know
I don't really wanna take this anymore
Life just swings back and forth
Like a broken door
Said you've been there before
Need to do this one on my own
But I don't wanna be alone
We got a ways to go
Before we reach top of the world
But we got a ways to fall
Before we hit the bottom
Of the ocean floor
Of the ocean floor
We got a ways to go
Before we reach top of the world
But we got a ways to fall
Before we hit the bottom
Of the
We’re on top of the world
We’re gonna rule the world
We’re on top of the world

Learning the simple lessons
Swimming in the juice
Embrace the imperfection
And you’ll find your way
Forget the words they say
They don’t understand
Just be the bigger man
You’re a black man
And you’re educated
Underrated, so be your own
President, don’t wait for it
Go out and get it and grow out your hair
There's power in the skin you wear
Someday you’ll understand what it means to be a black man
Swimming in the juice
Swimming in the juice
Swimming in the juice
Believe it when you say it
Believe in your reflection
And your passion
If it don’t drive you crazy
Then it's not worth the stressin' stressin' stressin'
Keep it moving keep your family and
Think about it then just do it
You’ll know when you’re really in the juice
You’re a human
We’re on the same world
Remember
Not to bury all your love
Don’t you know that you’re worth the universe
You got to play your hand
Don’t you ever be afraid of being a black man
Swimming in the juice
Swimming in the juice
Swimming in the juice

Runnin' Remix

I know that you just can't believe it
Took a couple seconds just for it to sink in
Cuz I can make a good thing heathen
Turn around and leave cuz I was overthinking
But I just need you to know that I'm not runnin'
From you
I’m always finding something wrong
A hundred ones past threw that door
Hundred past threw that door
Hundred past threw that door
I’m always find something wrong
Reel you in before you’re gone
Reel you in before you’re gone
Reel you in before you’re gone
Who you kidding gorgeous
I know what you tell your friends
If I’m your number one they gotta be irrelevant
Just delete your Tinder, and cancel that date
I get off at seven, I hope you’re free at eight
I gotta couple questions, hoping you can answer some
Like what you really want
And what you’re running from
If you in need of love just relax and let it come
Get it, just let it cum
That’s an entendre for you
Can we last, yes we can
That’s some Obama for you
You see I’m just being honest
That’s always been my problem
But fuck the gossip I gotchu
And know that I’m for real
I was wondering if we could talk
About the logistics of you and me being involved
That’s a problem I can’t solve
My abandonment issues ain’t letting up at all
Cuz I’m not running from you
I’m running from myself
And that’s a hard truth I just can’t sell
Cuz to love you, I’ve got love myself
But baby, this doesn’t bode well
Always finding something wrong
Babe leave my heart before you go

Jeremy Jones Los Angeles, California
Indiana-bred, LA-based artist Jeremy Jones has been obsessed with music for as long as he can remember, but the music of his youth was nothing like his new single "Road". Throughout his childhood, mainstream music wasn't allowed in his devout, Jamaican household. Instead, he grew up listening to gospel music, playing violin and viola, and singing in church and musicals. He's come a long way. ... more
