Artist Discography



Verse 1 (Jehst)
I stay lazy laid back catchin U.V. Rays /
I feel like I need to blaze to make it through these days / Of stagnation /
My crew see ways to reach peace /
Their creation of beats, deep bass and free speech /
From the cheap seats I watch the rain sweep streets /
I wake from deep sleep and embrace the sun /
Run the rat race to make first place or none /
Set the pace with drum breaks and scrape the funds together /
To see me through / to do whatever I need to do /
I believe in you and your cause /
So take the tape of pause /
Let it play and record / check the DJ then spend a day indoors /
I'm absorbed in scores / tryina iron out the flaws in the beat /
More draw to keep my cipher complete /
Kids playin in the street out the window hear the rhythm /
I'm hidden / my loops are the fruit thats forbidden /
I drop words / envision the nightsky by day /
By night I envision the daylight to stay /
A single step ahead at this pivitol stage /
J-star upgraded for the digital age /
As the sands fall / I stand tall below the fire ball /
The sky illuminated by the light that inspired all /
Evolution / I'm tryina reach a resolution /
Persue revolution and review my contribution /

Hook (Nmonic & Jehst)
My body clock tick tock by day
My body clock tick tock by night
My body clock got me up to play
My body clock got me up to fight
My body clock tick tock by day
My body clock tick tock by night
My body clock tick tock ok
My body clock tick tock alright

Verse 2 (Nmonic)
The night is my time to rise and shine /
Coz when theres moonlight in my eyes I'm at my prime /
My instincts are fine / as I adapt to the dark and I start to find /
My self within this nocturnal /
Embarking on journeys I then chart in my journal /
See I'm savin 'em for later use /
Coz every day has a dream and another excuse /
To break loose and run away /
Escape to the neon fires where shadows play /
Pray they can stay on forever /
They pay their far for never never land /
And together they fly / Behind the responsibilities and then sever the tie /
They rise them to the sun / I watch Ikarus fall and see it has begun /
It's the beginning of the end /
See I'm back to day one and I have nothing my friend /
Not a penny to my name /
So I guess I'll just have to jump the next the train / again /
So I guess I'll just have to jump the next the train /

Hook (Nmonic & Jehst)
My body clock tick tock by day
My body clock tick tock by night
My body clock got me up to play
My body clock got me up to fight
My body clock tick tock by day
My body clock tick tock by night
My body clock tick tock ok
My body clock tick tock alright
