One of my favorite rappers of all time, The Jokerr and a video from his upcoming cd
And here are the lyrics in case it gets a little too fast at parts.
Verse 1:
So, you ain’t heard about The J yet? Shut up, you don’t know what I’m gonna say yet
Livin in a rage, given in a cage, company cut now I’m coming to get a paycheck
Homie depending on how you’re looking at it I could be considered a renegade or a gentleman
I may dress funny, but I’m one of a kind, the son of a giant, and God Zilla wouldn’t consent to a DNA test
So I got a complex like I gotta be the baddest at everything that I do and I feed the madness
Got a ding and a bruise and the key to sadness, and I’m still trying to figure out who my dad is
Though I gave it every effort yo I still came up short, I left it to the government appealed enough courts
It never got me anything definitive and nothing ever turned out quite my way no…
So I looked to the sky, looked to my God, digging down deep hey, look what I find
Another cruel scheme and a crook to abide at the bottom with a pole, line, hook and an eye
Just waiting for me with the bait in the sea (thinking I really gotta be a) fool if I take it
But I did and go…. (Down down down)
(Vocal split)
So (what did I) de(velop) with (all) my time, (in the dark) trapped (cellar) in (hall) my mind
(I don’t know) What (happened) or (how), but I’m (Tearing all) you (rappers ) on (down) now
You can hear the Jhemani calling in every word
I’m back from the dungeon to bring you something you’ve never heard
Chorus:
E-Ver-Be (For)X4
Now how do you know what secrets the labyrinth may hold
If never you’ve opened up its treacherous door
E-Ver-Be (For)X4
Now look to the sky oh ever so high we’re going up
Further than we ever have soared
E-Ver-Be (for)
Verse 2:
Now I’ve been told over and over that I’m over the top with flowing
But I’m like “Oh no I’m the Jokerr, the one and only, so lonely.”
And if imma keep it going then I gotta do what I gotta
To stand out in the crowd of imposters from Atlanta to Gotham a lot of
Rappers especially try to assume the role
Then try to accuse me of being unoriginal like you wouldn’t know
It’s beautiful; going up against uno numeral induces funerals
For stupid kids with pseudonyms they just ain’t suited fo[r]
But look how I rip it, it’s over the top, it’s so wicked
It’s never quite what you would expect but it’s always better its different
I come from all different angles; it’s so involved and entangled
The pursuit of perfection with exceptional depth and dimension
And I know that you might have heard of plenty other Jokers singing rapping Juggling joking jingling dancing and more
Well the reason I’m different when you say that the whole Jokerr gimmick is such a bore...
Is I do it better than…
E-Ver-Before…
Chorus: X1
Bridge:
It’s the battle day, and we’re ready all, with a steady aim
We’ll never fall, we’ll never fade, we’re a people of honor (Sing it out now hey)
It’s the battle day, will we be gone? Or will we stay?
We’ll never know we can only pray, after it’s over things will be different than E-Ver-Before…

Same as Nomp and Tel Aviv here, I was going to make a big speech about how I remember the good old days of playing that song on Guitar Hero: World Tour. Oh well, missed the opportunity again.
"I <3 Justin Bieber, 50 Shades of Grey, 1D and Brokeback Mountain.
Also, I once shared a sleeping bag with Heath Ledger. Paqan > Aztec"
"Anything I can do Callisto can do better.
I have a crush on Goose. Gungrave is my BFF."
'The real number one female player in Echo.'
'Pro Gamers: The up and coming squeakers of the halo world.'
Lol I like that song but it is overrated in my opinion, should have realized the difference with the extra "r", back on topic did any of you actually watch the video?
Goose if you like that I can post a lot more, and I will start by adding this amazing song
Verse 1:
Hello my traveling friends, have a seat, listen in
There's something that I'd like to share... Go ahead? Ok then
Now let me introduce myself, I'm the Jester of this court
(Hurry up and get to it already!) Oh be patient, I'll be short
I'm here on a mission I'm here on a quest, a thousand days and not much rest
At the mention of intervention by the henchmen, imma get tension off my chest
Now I don't need to rap in a southern drawl, I don't need to act above the law
But when you leave I want you all...
(pick ups)
Tellin everybody on the planet that it's coming to an end...
Here I am once again, hat bells ringing and a big long chin
Underestimated from the moment that you see me till I brew a little potion and you breathe it all in
Then the room starts spinning and the walls all burn, people in the pictures un-pause and turn
Then you look up and I'm sitting in the corner with a scepter while you're taken and not given any bit of concern, now...
Turn around and look, (hey) how you gonna deal? There's no one there to help you and I bet nobody will
They look at you like nothing but a burden to be taken you get drug into the dungeon and locked to the steel,
Locked in and sealed, locked in until the guillotine's ready then you're copped for the kill
Welcome to the world of The Jokerr tell me how does it feel?
Chorus 1:
Hey, I don't fit in, and it’s ok
I'm with you now, I feel your pain
I know it’s wrong, I know it hurts
Believe me thought, it could be worse
I tried and tried, to no avail
I did it all, I only failed
So here I bring a simple song
If you feel the same, come along
Verse 2:
Back in the day when they shook my hat, it took a little bit of time but I took it back
The Joke in effect came in the night to claim the life of the first born of the crooks that jacked
So in that sense, I'm kinda like the angel of death, sweepin over the valley creep in and strangle they breath
And I don't wanna kill kids but I gotta do what I gotta do when I gotta do it if it looks as that
Now I applaud anybody who attempts to stop, cause people can't even imagine an event to top
What imma bring, the badda bing, the kinda thing that with every syllable given I'm makin em wanna pretend to pop…
To bring law to the masses, offer the passes, then I'm bout to smooth go off on they asses
Downright vicious, [its] gonna sound like this...
(pick ups)
Everybody listening The Jokerr said you better be prepared...
Yeah, put em in the air, you don't like the rhythm of it I don't even care
I'm the man of the hour demanding the power to banish the cowards down to Atlantis and then imma meet em there...
Then I'll hit em with a boulder and turn them over to Satan, let him cut 'em into slivers and burn em up into bacon,
Better run if you're pretending, I'm on a mission listen I got a vision The Jokerr won't even try to make it fair...
Cause I'm huge coming in loud and bold, killing whatever they sent down in droves
Parked in a medieval dark without even a spark, living a gentlemen in a shrouded soul
What do you know? I’m still around, better duck when you hear the bell ringing sounds
Coming after those who sent me down.
Chorus 2:
Hey, I don't fit in, and it’s ok
I'm with you now, I feel your pain
I know it’s wrong, I know it hurts
Believe me thought, it could be worse
I tried and tried, to no avail
I did it all, I only failed
So here I bring a simple song
If you feel the same, come along
Bridge:
Back when I wasn’t but a little lad never knew there was a division between kinds
Figured they would look at the facts and never react irrational my what an innocent mind
I looked at ‘em all took in it all oh how badly I wanted to be honest
Never knew there was an inevitable element of evil in people I would come to so admonish
Now I’m here after many long hard years, after many dog gone tears
And permanent scars intervened on the flesh of an innocent Jester doomed to absolve all peers
And go all alone roaming the night in lonely cold and darkened gloom
Destined to walk alone all the way into my tomb
Now that I have your attention ladies and gentlemen, relax and listen to the soothing vocal enchantments of Lady Mirabelle…. Let your eyes follow the swinging pendulum.
I know some of you feel the same way I do so let’s all sing together…

Bumping this thread for any fans of good rap to listen to something new and also adding my favorite song of his
Verse 1:
I wake up early and clench, thin and drab
While the shackles on my ankles slice skin and scab
I get up they drag through the halls of my pad
While the comfort of the nights dream dissolves and its sad
I walk to face the cabinet in the bathroom and stand
With a bottle of my favorite pain killers in my hand
I tip it and scatter a couple thousand milligrams
Then I toss it with my head spinning like a ceiling fan
I glance to my reflection but it’s too dark to perceive
And luckily cause if I could I’d start to vomit and heave
Some people call it esteem, for which myself I do lack
A lack that manifests with every second sheltered crude act
I can’t control it at all, it gets progressively worse
A stomach wrenching lust for which I excessively thirst
It’s like a monster that lurks behind the moss and the trees
That gets me cornered every eve as I drop to my knees and scream…
Chorus:
Help me God. I’m a wounded soldier
And in a canyon I now lie
I fell behind and now an old black compass
With the needle gone and my nine is all I can find
I know it’s wrong, but my legs are gone
And I know it won’t be long till I’m found
And then they’ll torture me and I just can’t let that be
So with this gun, I think I’ll go one last round…
Verse 2:
I’m about ready to give up recall it and pack
Just say forget that and gift wrap you all of this crap
The first quarter of my life and it’s already so old
A terrible road trip and they won’t let me go home
I’m like a blunt force trauma bruise I used to be blue
But then I changed over time as pollution ensued
Now I’m just callous and bitter in this excuse for a mood
Droopy and glued, I just want to cut loose and seclude
And who knew someday I’d be so afraid to entrust
And who knew someday I’d be such a slave to my lust
And who knew that everything I’d once held so dear
Would melt so queer then dry into a clay and encrust
Who figured I would stare from behind a prisoner’s door
Right at a warden, poor, in spite of my wisdom and lore
And when the time comes I find something I should resign from and
(I don’t wanna do that anymore) I ignore and scream…
(Chorus X1)
Bridge: (Preaching by Craig Hill from sermon “Identifying Shame”)
“Then you know what happens? What you do on the inside is you begin to fight against that thing… …What happens as soon as you do that? What happens is the shame working on the inside rises up again at an opportune time and it begins to torment the soul and create that yucky feeling. Hebrews talks about pushes the soul out of peace is what it does, and when the soul is out of peace you begin seeking to do something to move that soul back into peace. And see the flesh comes with a plan, ‘here’s what you need to do just do this…’ And it’s that thing that you just vowed not to do…”
Bridge Vocals (Luna The Dark Enchantress):
Rain comes down all over
Rain comes down all over
Rain comes down all over
Again…
Verse 3:
Digging myself every empty grave I see to be dug
(I don’t wanna do that anymore)
Watching myself run from every opportunity for me to be loved
(I don’t wanna do that anymore)
Always harboring a bitter anger for my father and his wounds I hide
(I don’t wanna do that anymore)
Being reluctant to concede when I need to in plumes of pride
(I don’t wanna do that anymore)
Telling my body yes (I don’t wanna do that anymore)
Waking up feeling depressed (I don’t wanna do that anymore)
Poorly managing money (I don’t wanna do that anymore)
Trying to change others (I don’t wanna do that anymore)
Thinking my life’s a mess (I don’t wanna do that anymore)
Treating the ones closest to me worse than strangers
(I don’t wanna do that anymore)
Always feeling like having bursts of anger
(I don’t wanna do that anymore)
Sitting and feeling hopeless (I don’t wanna do that anymore)
Being unable to focus (I don’t wanna do that anymore)
Shaping my life to impress (I don’t wanna do that anymore)
Oh yes, hey I’m screaming out…
(Chorus X1)
