Hope
(Music and Lyrics by BEN JUD)
So I thought we need a miracle
And I thought we stand no chance
When anything seemed lost
And locked ten feet under the ground
No I couldn’t find the answers
To all the questions I have asked
But I found the simple truth then
When I was walking in the woods
There is beauty all around us
In every corner every stone
So many things are worth to fight for
So many things are worth to care
And my family’s still around me
And I got a loving wife
Oh I can’t wait to have some children
And to make this place their home
That’s why I still got hope
That’s why I’ll always hope
For us
Glad You Made It
(Music and Lyrics by BEN JUD)
[verse 1]
I dreamed about it every night
I think I found a place to hide
The music hideaway
The place I wanna stay
Everyday anyway
Even when the sun don’t shine
I know that all my stars align
At the music hideaway
where I just wanna play
Everyday anyway
[pre-chorus]
I might not really think about it
But this place is gettin lonely too
I know that I can’t live without it
And now I’m glad you made it too
And I might not really think about it
But this place is gettin lonely too
I know that I can’t live without it
And now I’m glad you made it too
[chorus]
And now I’m glad, I’m glad you made it
Now I’m glad so glad you made it
And now I’m glad, I’m glad you made it
Now I’m glad so glad you made it, glad you made it
[instrumnetal]
I’m glad you made it, yeah, oh
I’m glad you made it
[verse 2]
I see the light is shining through
The windows right behind of you
I can’t see your face
but the scene is full of grace
Everyday anyway
[pre-chorus]
I might not really think about it
But this place is gettin lonely too
I know that I can’t live without it
And now I’m glad you made it too
And even when I think about it
Now I know that I can be with you
At the music hideaway,
The place I wanna stay
Everyday anyway
[chorus]
And now I’m glad, I’m glad you made it
Now I’m glad so glad you made it
And now I’m glad, I’m glad you made it
Now I’m glad so glad you made it, glad you made it
[guitar solo]
[instrumental]
I’m glad you made it
I’m glad, I’m glad you made it
Oh
I’m glad you made it
Feel so delirious
[Bridge]
Feel so delirious
Ain’t got no remedy
Somehow mysterious
Eventually I’m glad you made it
Feel so delirious
Ain’t got no remedy
Somehow mysterious
Eventually I’m glad you made it
Feel so delirious (so delirious)
Ain’t got no remedy
Somehow mysterious
Eventually I’m glad you made it (I’m glad you made it)
Feel so delirious (oh)
Ain’t got no remedy (ain’t got no remedy)
Somehow mysterious
Eventually I’m glad you made it
[Outro]
Feel so delirious
Ain’t got no remedy
Somehow mysterious
Eventually I’m glad you made it
In My Chest
(Music and Lyrics by BEN JUD)
[intro]
Hoo…
[verse 1]
Remember the first night
We were so young
I felt like a love child
When I took your hand
[pre-chorus]
Love dropped in like never before
While Robin Thicke was on the radio
Love came quickly knocking on my door
While Robin Thicke was on the radio
[chorus]
Oh, somehow this feeling never changed at all
Hoo, I always got it in my chest, yeah
In my chest
[instrumental]
I always got it in my chest
You
[verse 1]
I still can’t believe it
You feel like a dream
Still when I think about us,
And how we built up our trust
I would think are we insane
When we’re throwing popcorn
Then we wake up in the morn
And we’re making sweet love again
[pre-chorus]
Love dropped in like never before (never before)
While Robin Thicke was on the radio (take a good girl)
Love came quickly knocking on my door (on my door)
While Robin Thicke was on the radio (the radio)
[chorus]
Oh, somehow this feeling never changed at all
Hoo, I always got it in my chest, yeah
In my chest
[instrumental]
I always got it in my chest, yeah oh
I always got it in my chest
[breakdown]
I got you where I wanted you
I got you in my chest
[bass solo]
[Bridge]
I got you where I wanted you
I got you in my chest
I got you where I wanted you (I got you where I wanted you)
I got you in my chest (I always got it in my chest)
I got you where I wanted you (Yeah)
I got you in my chest
I got you where I wanted you (Somehow this feeling never changed)
I got you in my chest (Oh)
[Outro]
I got you where I wanted you
I got you in my chest
Believe in Myself
(Music and Lyrics by BEN JUD)
[verse 1]
I wonder what my life would look like
If I watched it from a different star
If I sat there with a telescope
On Jupiter or Mars
What would I think about myself
Or how would I like my life to be, instead
(Huh)
[verse 2]
I wonder if I made my friends come over
For an evening episode
Would I tell them to grab a drink
And to make themselves at home
And would my life be entertaining
Or would they fall asleep to soon, instead
(Huh)
[chorus]
And when I’m closing my eyes
I’m not worried at all
Cause I know that I’ll be all right
Knowing that I have myself
Watching over me
From a distant star in space
And when I’m closing my eyes
I’m not worried at all
Cause I know that I’ll be all right
Know that I’ll be all right
If I believe in myself (huh)
If I believe in myself (huh)
[verse 3]
Wonder if I noticed someone watching
From a distant star in space
Bet this world just looks amazing
From a different place
Are my problems that important
Or should I just take a deep long breathe instead
(Huh)
[chorus]
And when I’m closing my eyes
I’m not worried at all
Cause I know that I’ll be all right (be all right)
Knowing that I have myself
Watching over me
From a distant star in space (star in space)
And when I’m closing my eyes
I’m not worried at all
Cause I know that I’ll be all right (be all right)
Know that I’ll be all right
If I believe in myself (huh)
[guitar interlude]
If I believe in, if I believe in
If only I believe in
If I believe in, if I believe in
If only I believe in
[breakdown]
I wonder what my life would look like
If I watched it from a different star
If I sat there with a telescope
On Jupiter or Mars
What would I think about myself
Or how would I like my life to be, instead
(Huh)
[reprise]
If I believe in, if I believe in (oh)
If only I believe in (If I believe in)
(If I believe in) If I believe in, if I believe in
(waiting for the brighter days to come)
If only I believe in
If I believe in myself
Brighter Days
(Music and Lyrics by BEN JUD)
[verse 1]
A thing that happens everyday
Seems like nothing lights my way
Could not believe it when I said
I’m lonely too
I never felt like this before
I’m lying naked on the floor
Could not believe it when I said
I’m lonely too
[pre-chorus]
But everybody’s gotta be lonely sometimes
That doesn’t mean you need to be lonely for life
[chorus]
I’m waiting for the Brighter Days to come
Waiting for the lighter ways to go
Waiting for the Brighter Days, many Brighter Days to come
I’m waiting for the Brighter Days to come
Waiting for the lighter ways to go
Waiting for the Brighter Days, many Brighter Days to come
The Brighter Days to come
[interlude]
Dada Doo.. The Brighter Days, The Brighter Days, yeah
Dada Doo.. The Brighter Days
[verse 2]
I change the colors of the wall
Just to make the feeling go
Could not believe it when I said
I’m lonely too
I’m putting all the things aside
But it doesn’t make me feel alright
Could not believe me when I thought
I’d be okay.
[chorus]
I’m waiting for the Brighter Days to come
Waiting for the lighter ways to go
Waiting for the Brighter Days, many Brighter Days to come
I’m waiting for the Brighter Days to come
Waiting for the lighter ways to go
Waiting for the Brighter Days, many Brighter Days to come
The Brighter Days to come
[interlude]
Dada Doo.. The Brighter Days, The Brighter Days, yeah, ohhh
Dada Doo.. The Brighter Days, Brighter Days yeah
[chorus]
I’m waiting for the Brighter Days to come
Waiting for the lighter ways to go
Waiting for the Brighter Days, many Brighter Days to come
I’m waiting for the Brighter Days to come
Waiting for the lighter ways to go
Waiting for the Brighter Days, many Brighter Days to come
The Brighter Days to come
The Brighter Days to come
Tryin’
(Music and Lyrics by BEN JUD)
[verse 1]
I’ve been missing sleep since I went away
But no mountain high or steep could have made me stay
So many times we speak but then find no way
But this will be over now
Only denial, If I never gonna try,
Won’t let the days go by
Leave nothing untried, no no
I only gotta keep on trying, yeah
[chorus]
Got a pocket full of dreams,
As crazy as it seems
Wanna buy you golden rings
I don’t waste my time
Cause I’m tryin’, I’m tryin’,
I’m tryin’ everyday
Got a pocket full of dreams,
As crazy as it seems
Wanna buy you golden rings
I don’t waste my time
Cause I’m tryin’, I’m tryin’,
I’m tryin’ everyday
[verse 2]
The moments that I speak out the truth in me
Are the moments that I feel powerful and free
So many times we’re blinded by what could be
But this will be over now (this will be over)
Only denial, If I never gonna try,
Won’t let the days go by
Leave nothing untried, no no
I only gotta keep on trying (I keep on tryin’)
[chorus]
Got a pocket full of dreams,
As crazy as it seems
Wanna buy you golden rings
I don’t waste my time
Cause I’m tryin’, I’m tryin’,
I’m tryin’ everyday
Got a pocket full of dreams,
As crazy as it seems
Wanna buy you golden rings
I don’t waste my time
Cause I’m tryin’, I’m tryin’,
I’m tryin’ everyday
[interlude]
I keep on tryin’, I keep on tryin’
I keep on tryin’
I keep on tryin’, I keep on tryin’
I keep on tryin’
[bridge]
Got a pocket full of dreams,
As crazy as it seems
Wanna buy you golden rings
I don’t waste my time
Cause I’m tryin’, I’m tryin’,
I’m tryin’ everyday
Got a pocket full of dreams,
As crazy as it seems
Wanna buy you golden rings
I don’t waste my time
Cause I’m tryin’, I’m tryin’,
I’m tryin’ everyday
[outro]
I’ve been missing sleep since I went away
But no mountain high or steep could have made me stay
So many times we speak but then find no way
But this will be over now,
As long as I just keep on tryin’
No More
(Music and Lyrics by BEN JUD x Magnum Coltrane Price)
[verse 1]
I’m ready
I guess I found myself
I’m ready
I guess I found my own way to go
Sometimes it’s happens too fast
I thought it would last
Til it became clear to me
Sometimes It happens at last
When I thought it had passed
Here’s my chance
[chorus]
I wanna start living my life
No compromises taken from here, no no
I wanna live, like I fantasized it
No compromises taken from here, no no
No no more
[interlude]
Hoo, …. No no More
[rap - Magnum Coltrane Price]
(Thinkin’) Ain’t it something always tryin’ to get back
You win one loose two what’s up with that?
It didn’t make me stronger
You killed me
And only `cause of that baby
You filled me
I rise everyday
just to spite this destiny
I fight everyday
Just for you to see
Not ever backin’ up on
To go forward
Not ever slowin’ down
I got a goal to go towards (ey yo)
No tell me what you thinkin about
Cause your mind creates reality no doubt
But not like the matrix or a video game
I hear we only got love and shame (love and shame)
Love and shame cannot be your compromise
Love and shame so you know that you’re alive
Live for real oh don’t you live that lie
Live for real oh don’t you live that lie (yeah yeah yeah)
[chorus]
I wanna start living my life
No compromises taken from here, no no
I wanna live (yeah), like I fantasized it
No compromises taken from here, no no
No no more (no compromises take from here)
[interlude]
Huh …
(Don’t you live that lie)
(No no no)
Live for real oh don’t you live that lie
(Don’t you live that lie)
(Oh)
(No no no)
(Don’t you live that lie)
[outro]
No no, no no more
No no, no no more
No no, no no more
No no, no no more
No no, no no more
