Time for a new sound Ain't that what we all need? /Yo, it's your boy Musicboy, whaddup/ Everybody touch your hands to the sky And realize the power that you got inside Everybody touch your hands to the sky And realize the power that you got in... //What I'm sayin' is Why am I not on MTV? It's my damn channel - you named it after me! Think they tryin' to teach me I - Need to work for everything I want in this life, cuz Why - all the intelligence? Why - All the extravagance? Might - this be my way to ask you Who you wanna be? chorus: //Or are we just gonna keep on at Rollin', rollin, in the same way Going, going, Through the same day, Blowing, blowing, our money in the same old fake shhh Floatin', floatin', flowing ever higher!! -And blow!! Ain't it about the time that we Open up our eyes and see the light Are you the things you buy? Or tell me are you really free? Cuz, Why - all the intelligence? Why - all the extravagance? Why - if you don't wanna grow Tell me are you really here, for [chorus] Bridge: I wanna see you grow I wanna see you shine See you livin' your dreams as I live mine And please Remember to Dream You see reality is just reality Until you redefine [chorus] How was I supposed to keep that inside my mind? Move sum' Get on the floor and go If you wanna get some If you wanna get some

They wanna hear from the activist me, So I wrote this song so to activate me They wanna hear from the activist me Or should I stay home, watch TV and do nothing? Bring back the real I write my songs electronic, but I'm TRUE I hope you all feel me Searching for some authenticity At the root of this matrix - where could it be? All I see is this vanity, and plastic prosperity, and Reality has become it's own tragic parody, we - Look up to idols of plastic, But look inside tell me what is our fabric, and I sing chorus: Wojohh!! Can we bring back the real? Does anybody still know What it feels like to feel? I said Wojohh!! Can we bring back the real? From the root of this matrix, built up out of fakeness I hope and I pray that we will Bring back the real Remember when - you used to go up to the club And turn your radio up for real music? What? Remember when - you used to watch TV And everything you see, wasn't 'supposed to be' reality? Remember when - our heroes were true heroes? Micheal Jack - oh we miss you so... I'm not sayin', I'm the next best thing I'm just tryin' to bring the real back, help me sing, say [chorus] Ok this is for everybody out there Who be gettin' tired of that fakeness, that bullcrap I'm gonna ask y'all to put your hands up for me one time Everybody put your hands up Clap with me, bring the real back with me Everybody put your hands up Clap with me, bring the real back with me [chorus]

//Ess lua cheia Ja bensoam nha alma, Enchim cum paixão Pam screve, pam canta çeu es musica, Pam tocas, pam fazes parte di mi, Com mim jam vra parte die quem k ja ouvim (translation: //This full moon Has blessed my soul, Filled me with a passion So that I write, that I sing these songs to heaven, That I play, that I make them part of me As I have become part of those who have heard me) Soulfuller Moonlight, I write my mind to the stars My heart reaching for heaven, Might my prayers reach that far And low; praying so hard as if there might be a God, I'm so, dazed by my life and overwhelmed by this awe- Some night Now our dreams only read what's the inner sense, Of us in our lives, and our lies, lost our innocence, Myself, my life, in this night, my significance Question marks the difference To whoever hears this Whomever it may be of concern to Whether you heard my joint on MTV Or copped it off of youtube If you heard my soul screaming it to the city while, Full of moonlight, full of wounds I Still bleed when it hits me now... Whenever whichever way my mind connected to yours True Reason for my existence manifested in true form Born to shine Say it loud and with pride Stand tall, hear me, thou shalt all know I Watch my stride, conquer the darkness by the light For a less misguided life, for all mankind Slow Air: chorus: What I need, for my soul to shine Some alone time , so to slow my mind Running, hyperventilating won't get me anywhere Please give me the time to be, and just breathe Some slow air... Sometimes I just need some time to just be My down self Some time for me to just be with me, and no - nobody else So please, baby believe me, when I say it's nothing personal But if you really want me to grow, you gotta know how to let go, When it's time to let go - don't ask me Why I be leavin', where I'll be at? Who I be meeting and when I'll be back, You need to understand for me to be the best I can for you, Sometimes I need to think of what - [chorus] Sometimes when I look at the world, I feel y'all could learn from me 'Cuz y'all be runnin', not knowing where you going Why don't you take some time to breathe? My friend the other day said I'm a bum, Cuz I don't bring home the cash And then my other friend replied; If you want meaning in life Is that where it's at? 'Cuz tell why are we runnin'? What's it all mean? Why are we gunnin' so hard for that green? Take it from me; if you wanna reach high, Sometimes you gotta take it slow, and lay low and say [ chorus] [ chorus]

Dus. Dit is een liedje voor de grap Voor degene die begrijpt wat een grap is Dit is een liedje uit mijn hart Voor degene die begrijpt waar m'n hart ligt chorus: Dit is mijn Ghetto Ballade Voor m'n boo die me liefheeft ondanks Dat ik niet bepaald rijk ben, en niet echt gangster Maar voor haar 'de man' Dit is m'n Ghetto Ballade En ze weet deze ish is for real Mami verzwaart m'n swagg, rechtvaardigt m'n bragg, En het wordt nooit teveel... Mami zegt dat ik zo dope ben, Terwijl ik kleding-wise 'zo' ben en saldo-wise altijd rood ben Soms zie ik niet in wat ze in me ziet, Maar volgens mij kijkt zij anders, volgens mij kijkt ze in m'n ziel... Dus soms voel ik me imbeciel, wanneer ik twijfel aan dat ding dat ze voor me voelt, Maar nooit twijfel aan dat ding dat ze voor me doet het slotakkoord op mijn harmonie: mama ik woon hier!! En mami zegt het is m'n swagg, oh Want baby jij bent ook zo ghetto Baby je hart zo groot, puur voor je imago Zing ik hem zo [chorus] En weet je nog, hoe het begon? Jij en ik, op een bankje, aan het einde van de zomerzon De schemering die zette in Zomaar ineens was jij meer dan zomaar een lieve vriendin En hier Wil ik wonen Met jou Hier wil ik wonen met jou En mami zegt het is m'n swagg, oh Want baby jij bent ook zo ghetto Baby je hart zo groot, puur voor je imago Zing ik hem zo [ chorus] [ chorus]

Néo Areyon 03:30
It was a beautiful day When you came into my world And made it yours, all ours To play in And as I see you grow Each day I grow along with you I give you all I can And pray that you know that I am yours and you are mine, That's how it'll always be Tattooed your name across my heart, And hope to die, If I ever fail, or hurt you Just pray that I deserve you You are the one that makes me Feel the drive to be, the best I can , and chorus: I wanna show you, that I can do, And I will do anything I want in this life, And then I'll show you That if you try, It's as likely for you To do anything you want, hey It's a beautiful day, yeah You make it - a beautiful day, yeah

about

...Because Dreams are all we have.
Look around you, at the world around you. The devices we use everyday that have become so plain to us we don't even realise they're there. Look at the landscape; public transportation, sidewalks, buildings, planted trees. The art, billboards; city noise and poetic music. Our world has been shaped more by the dreams of men, than by anything else. 
Does this mean it's becoming ever harder to dream new dreams? Possibly. Does this prove that the dreams of men often can turn into sad, hurtful things? Probably. But more than anything it means that it's becoming ever more important to dream. This is my dream. And thank you for helping me to make it come true.
But everybody has dreams. Everybody has passions, things that they are gifted for, that comprise the TRUE added value you can have for the world. The truest version of you is certainly going to be the best 'you' for the world around you, and no less for yourself. you are holding my dream in your hands. But what is yours? Remember that dream. And Remember to Dream it.


Thanks where they are due.
A first thank you goes out to my friends and family, by blood or by heart, everywhere in the world. Without your unstoppable support I would be nowhere, and going nowhere either. A special thank you goes to my parents and beautiful sister, with their neverending patience and tolerance of my being 'special'. And of course to my beautiful son Néo Areyon to whom I dedicate this CD.
My wonderful Jamilla; more than anything, if I am becoming something, it is because of your unconditional love, support and acceptance of this unearthly passionate creative dreamer I am apparently uncovering within myself. Thank you for believing in me, and for believing with me. 1099. 
Musical/creative thanks to LaVoix, of course, D.M., and miss Kay; Jefferson P., PK, mr. Datiq, Cream and the TVOH 2011 A-team. This project would also never have come to the present form without the creative and often laborious aid of Paul Vis and Alexander Barmentlo. Thank you!!!
