You and I
Orange Sun in strawberry sky
Run go come, we go build a shrine
Psalms and song, we may live inside
You call, I come, we go, Carnival
Like nothing I have seen before
Million dream with the story of
Her and Him never finding love
Heaven was hiding you
I so desire you

Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba (mm)

Os anjos vão ser
Tocar, cantar e dançar
O céu e a terra
Em harmonia vão abençoar
Nuvens que passam
Chuva que vai e vem
Mas por onde você passar
O Sol vai brilhando também
Com você, nessa festa
Maravilhosa de três dias de Carnaval
Nessa festa
Maravilhosa de três dias de Carnaval

Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba (me dá um beijo, mm)

Hallelujah Heaven

(Jeymes Samuel feat. Lil Wayne, Buju Banton & Shabba Ranks)

(Hallelujah, Heaven say Hallelujah)
Hallelujah
(Hallelujah, Heaven say Hallelujah)
Hallelujah, baby
(Hallelujah Heaven, Hallelujah)
Hallelujah, baby
(Hallelujah)
Young moula, baby (Heaven say Hallelujah)

Yeah, uh
Hallelujah
Holy shit, I get high as Buddha
Put you on a highway to heaven like I'm your Uber
I maneuver through Miami like I was Tua
Like I was Shula in King of Diamonds like I'm a jeweler (Hallelujah)
Hallelujah
From Hollygrove to Honolulu (Hallelujah)
Me, Shabba, Buju, the holy ghosts will probably spook you
It's kinda coo coo, it's New Orleans a lot of voodoo (Hallelujah)
Pour holy water in my codeine sippin' like yoo hoo
Goodness gracious, I look at faces they look like satans (Heaven)
They look like hatred, I look no different it's just the matrix
Them gold bullets come out the pistol they look like Dathan (Heaven say hallelujah)
Is this the pearl gates or the cages incarceration? (Hallelujah)
My congregation don't operate like a corporation (Hallelujah)
I want my flowers and flower vases, I want carnations
I want begonias, I want petunias and flower groomers (Hallelujah)
'Cause I'm a god so when you see me say Hallelujah

Hallelujah
I'm a god so when you see me say, "Hallelujah"
Hallelujah
And I'm a god so when you see me say, "Hallelujah"

All praises to the most high
Savior Devine
With many great men, you have blessed mankind
Many worked hard, others they destroyed
Many were martyred for the good works tortured
But the saints kept marching on
We know that the Earth is the Lord and the fullness thereof
The world and they that dwell in
We know there are so many kingdoms but let me tell you only one king of kings
Glory to Jah in the highest, children, let's praise him
Repel all evil and sin
Hallelujah (ayy)
Hallelujah (ayy)
Ha-Hallelujah

Shabba
God give mi di strength, mi give him di glory
Shouting, "Hallelujah"
Glory, glory to the father, shouting, "Hallelujah"
God give mi di strength, mi give him di glory
Shouting, "Hallelujah"
Glory, glory to the father shouting, "Hallelujah"
Now the devil is a beast, unleash distress no peace
Among wicked, he leave destruction, death and grief
So contrary to whatever the pagan believe
God aguh break dem han' and pop out dem teeth
Before they take our life and drink blood at their feast
Mek dem know the righteous is elite (Shabba)
None can treat us, just like the least
If you know seh di Lord annoint
Outta life you be delete
My soul is well and my life complete
God almighty keep me outta dem reach
Pagan a fight a battle, an' you must get defeats
Wickedness inna darkness, mi know God see it
Hypocritical, yo God nah sleep
I am a son of God, listen when I speak
Righteousness I seek, his precept I keep
God nah slumber, God nah sleep
God give mi di strength, mi give him di glory
Shouting, "Hallelujah"
(Live right)

JEEZU

(Jeymes Samuel, Doja Cat & Kodak Black)

(feat. Adekunle Gold)

Jeezu, protect my soul
Wash my sin and let me fly
Jeezu, protect my soul
Wash my sin and let me shine
Mama, I have made my lay, no
Papa, they will know your name, oh
Jeezu, protect my soul
Wash my sin and let me fly

Easy my road, navigatin' the pain and the struggle
Tears overflow, in the ghetto ain't nothin' but trouble
Where shall I go? In the fire we burn or we hustle
Findin' my glow, but the light, you won't see what it cost you

I murder many men, but I ain't proud of my sins
We don't even like each other, for real, you know the deal, play pretend
With all this money made, I thought it wouldn't be a tragedy
Now I realize my happiness all depend
I am at these niggas neck, I had enough time to rest and self-reflect
I did enough for my writing in a pen'
My soul glow like Haiti, I'm a nightmare, baby, so crazy
They say I should be the one to dream big
Said a prayer for my relationship with my third kid
Won't even look at me like she can sense all the shit I did
Fresh off the bed, I ain't jumped off rappin'
Came home to the family with the fam like f*ck Instagram
Locked up in the box, you in jail, in the jail
Know that feeling people got your ass behind the door, scram
From the project to a sale to a mansion to a cell again
Like, goddamn, could a young nigga live?
I'll fight the police, say he ain't got my mil'
Cold ass sale got a nigga turned pink
Bag in through the sink
Shittin' where you eat and where you lay your head at
But it's the only time you sleep
My daddy was a Rolling Stone, but he's still a legend
Wondering if a nigga like me can go to Heaven
I'm your Snipe for life, Thug, you ain't never gotta second guess
When we were babies, my daddy said if we can't beat him, get a weapon
Prison reform, no prison deform
Why he always gotta leave a dang stain everywhere he go?
Niggas got my name in the kiosk machine
Tryna get me kicked outta the dorm, so they can flirt with the CO
Z told AD to keep me out of trouble
They believed me in me, they knew my lil' badass was gon' blow
I've been on this road thuggin', runnin' for a long time
I've been wantin' to cry, the Bible say it'll clean my soul

Jeezu, protect my soul
Wash my sin and let me fly
Jeezu, protect my soul
Wash my sin and let me shine
Mama, I have made my lay, no
Papa, they will know your name, oh
Jeezu, protect my soul
Wash my sin and let me shine

Yo, y'all ain't know me back then
I was tapped in corners, I was backed in
They gon' judge me only based upon the fashion
Mama taught me only judge 'em from they actions
Free of guilt, because you never caught me lackin'
I know they watchin' me
When you got integrity, there's no room for apologies
Now they actin' kind to me 'cause I ain't in economy
Cats dogmatic 'til they see I got the dog in me
Oh, you mad now?
Oh, you hurtin', shawty need a signature
Pass the Kirkland, I see she thirstin', see me and they nerd out
I been doin God's work, haters got the word out
Y'all got an agenda, but we'll see how that gon' turn out
Many false prophets leavin' brothers with a firm doubt
Father, please forgive me, for today, they finna learn now
Put me in the dirt, and you gon' see, I make it worthwhile
Mandela Effect 'em now, they'll remember
Back strokin' through my fan letters, I made the web fed up
Turned a Charlotte to some pancetta
You up in arms 'cause I eat better, now be jealous
I'll bring ya true colors front and center
Get you feelin' fight or flight, and wonderin' why you don't need feathers
I'm a legend
Trust the process, you won't regret it
Make 'em crack, no Arm & Hammer, it's sorta like armageddon
Ain't got no Fendi, so you offended
Baba Yaga, I'ma kill all you bitches with one these pencils
More aggression, so unaffected, you need affection
I'ma show you all the truth 'cause you gettin' too used to bendin'
Over, Roger that 'cause I'm a soldier
Doja, all them cats, I'm your owner
Own 'em, all them bags, already stole 'em
Call Winona, if you talk to me nice, I might let you hold 'em

Jeezu, protect my soul
Wash my sin and let me fly
Jeezu, protect my soul
Wash my sin and let me shine
Mama, I have made my lay, no
Papa, they will know your name, oh
Jeezu, protect my soul
Wash my sin and let me shine

Champagne

(Jeymes Samuel feat. Jorja Smith)

Reconsider those wrongs
As they're all days gone by
I still know that I love you
But champagne won't last forever
No regrets what we've done
For you only live twice
Seldom kisses are
Sun, the moon, and stars

Darling, I'm alive
Alive
Darling, I'm alive
Alive

Oh, oh
I won't live and let die
A single memory laying here
Soldiers, sailors, spies love me
In spite of stormy weather
Watch a hummingbird rise
I never wanted to say, "I do"
One day you and I will look back and smile

Darling, I'm alive
Alive
Darling, I'm alive
Alive

I was broken, look at me now, I'm fine
You were wrong about us
So why would I fall in lie?
Two in love are flames
Together, we burn so bright
Now I stand alone
But look at my shine
Look at my shine, I'm alive

But darling, I'm alive
I'm alive
Darling, I'm alive (ooh)
I'm alive

Sacred Love

(Jeymes Samuel feat. Yemi Alade)

One, two, three
Love, love, love, love, love
You thought that you could dance and play with love
But your steps have always rendered you out of time

I said love, love, love, love, love
I gave you everything
You said you don't believe me, baby
Your pessimism draws a line

I said that I don't believe you
You showed me nothing of a sacred love

Then I'll make it sacred
Time is an illusion
Based in our confusion
Everything around you
I have always found you
We have lived through so many lives
Yet we're always here

I'm so in love with you always
To comprehend it is a waste of mind
We may never know the reason
But your feeling is feeling mine

And don't forsake me
Never
Let me speak
Ever, ever, just take my life
It's a sacred love

I don't know if I can make it
Give it, I can take it
Trust me, I won't make it back if you break it
Eradicate the season of blame
For a sacred love

But I don't know if I can make it
Give it, I can take it
Trust me, I won't make it back if you break it
Isn't that the reason we came
For a sacred love, love, love, love
For a sacred love

It's making love when I lose you
It's the sacred heart, I fear

That I don't know if I can make it
Give it, I can take it
Trust me, I won't make it back if you break it
Eradicate the season of blame
For a sacred love, love, love, love

Isn't that the reason we came
For a sacred love

Came here for a sacred love

So way before you were born, and long after they're gone
Just sing my song (song)

Tears in my champagne 'bout you
Quit playin' girl, you know I'm crazy 'bout you
You know that week you ran back to your momma house
Ask my friends, the can vouch (Ooh)
Slept on the couch, 'cause the bed ain't a bed without you
Luther songs looped up in my head
Love you for my life, and I put that on my dead
Put that on my daddy's new porch, cigarettes
He blew cancer rings, I got toxic traits
Coax the ghosts, out my body got me straight
I don't want no smoke

Godqueen

(Jeymes Samuel feat. Kid Cudi)

Veer toward me
Drift upon the quiet sea
Tears anoint me
Silence is a part of me

Take it slow
I'm on the edge, don't push, go slow
I stay adrift, don't rush, go slow
Heaven is elemental
Our souls transcendental
I'm on the edge, don't push, go slow
I stay adrift, don't rush, go slow
Heaven is elevating
Our souls levitating

Veer toward me
Close your eyes and gravitate
Your hair anoints me
Silence is the sound we make
And if I whisper in your ear
Words will fall apart
Only sound we yearn here
Is our heartbeat

Take it slow
I'm on the edge, don't push, go slow
I stay adrift, don't rush, go slow
Heaven is elemental
Our souls transcendental
I'm on the edge, don't push, go slow
I stay adrift, don't rush, go slow
Heaven is elevating
Our souls levitating

You and I are intertwined
Can it be a state of mind?
Nothing ever disappears (oh)
Is it all we long to hear?
Sanity is lost at sea
You will stay adrift with me
I knew I was in the dark
Follow my heartbeat, it beats slow

I'm on the edge, don't push, go slow (slow)
I stay adrift, don't rush, go slow (slow)
Heaven is elemental (ooh)
Our souls transcendental (souls)
I'm on the edge, don't push, go slow
I stay adrift, don't rush, go slow
Heaven is elevating
Our souls levitating

Dear Heaven

(Jeymes Samuel)

Is there a heaven?
And is anybody there?
All the angels in the water
Are drowning in somebody's tears
I'm a sinner
And I don't know if I can change
If we only have a moment
Let's cherish the moment we make

Here, now
I promise to release you from your fears now
Take me at my word, we'll kiss the sky
The sun has no defense for you and I
You and I

Oh, maybe it's your kind of way
Maybe this is Heaven's gate
Maybe I'm your King
Or maybe I don't know a thing
Maybe you're too far away
Maybe you know God awaits
Maybe it's your touch
Or maybe I just dream too much
But you're beautiful
You're everything, everything and more

Will you still love me
If our world begins to change?
I don't know what is to happen
But know that I'm set to remain
You have held me
When I was settled in the cold
If we only hold a second
Let's treasure the second we hold

Here, now
I promise to relieve you from your tears now
Take me at my word, we'll touch the sky
The stars reserve a space for you and I
You and I

Oh, maybe it's your kind of way
Maybe this is Heaven's gate
Maybe I'm your King
Or maybe I don't know a thing
Maybe you're too far away
Maybe you know God awaits
Maybe it's your touch
Or maybe I just dream too much

But you're beautiful
You're everything, everything and more
Mmm, and more
You're everything, everything and more
And more

Magdalene

(Jeymes Samuel feat. Alice Smith)

Magdalene
Like the diamond in your eyes
I can read between the lines you lay
Magdalene
I omitted what's inside
But I feared if I implied, you'd just fade out

By the time I call your name
You will no longer remain
By the time I call your name
You will no longer remain

Better by design
Lost inside your smile, I always fall
Can we walk a while?
Racing, I run to your beck and call
Let me watch you fly
Walking by your side
Watching as you fly
Talking at your side

Magdalene
Will you let me come alive?
For without you I will die in vain
Magdalene
You're the mountain I will climb
In your absence, every day is the same now

By the time I call your name
You will no longer remain
By the time I call your name
You will no longer remain

Read between the lines
Joy inside your smile, I always find
Try to read the signs
God, queen, I admire your grand design
Teach me how to fly
Running by your side
Waiting for your smile
Such a grand design

By the time I call your name
You will no longer remain
By the time I call your name
You will no longer remain

Magdalene
Like the diamond in your eyes
I can read between the lines you lay
Magdalene
I omitted what's inside
But I feared if I implied, you'd just fade out
By the time I call your name
You will no longer remain
By the time I call your name
You will no longer remain

Teach me how to fly
Running by your side
Waiting for your smile
Such a grand design
Teach me how to fly
Running by your side
Waiting for your smile

Varinia

(Jeymes Samuel feat. Terry Callier)

Go to sleep, hear my call
I'm somewhere lost within the waterfall
Awake to find a joyful me
I'm lying underneath the cedar tree
Varinia, the sun is the world in which you run
You're free as the rain through your window
Saying

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Golden child, fearlessly
You smile upon the gaze of destiny
Beyond the cloud, a dawn awaits
That houses all the souls of yesterday
Varinia, the stars form a diamond where you are
You're free as the birds through your window
And she said

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Away
Run away, run away, run away
For I've a shelter in the storm
It's a place where I am warm now
And, love
I can say, I can say, I can say
For I was found, now I am lost
Within the beauty of your voice now
Forbid me to ever leave your side
Forbid me to ever leave your side

Away
Run away, run away, run away
I can bathe within the sun
It's the person I've become now
And, love
Love, love, love
I can say, I can say, I can say
For I was found, now I am lost
Within the beauty of your voice now
Forbid me to ever leave your side
Come on
Forbid me to ever leave your side
Come on
Forbid me to ever leave your side
Forbid me to ever leave your
Side

And I won't leave your side
And I won't leave your side
I won't leave your side

Nazarene

(Jeymes Samuel)

Gale force winds from the east I see
Hail stones coming up behind of me
Tidal waves beat up the road I stroll
Thunder and lightning as the tale unfolds

And, oh
What a world we made
What a bed we laid
When the sun shall fade
God, take my sins away
And, oh
What a life we live
What a fight we give
In your final scene
Cries of the Nazarene, oh

Old man time and his weathered hands
Must keep working for his tethered plans
Years fly by all too rapidly
Absent time with his family

Words written on his grave
What a bed he laid
And his son shall say
"God, give him time again"
Oh
What a life we live
What a fight we give
At the final scene
God bless the Nazarene, oh

And If I ever have to make it on my own
I pray the sun don't hide and leave me all alone
And if our destiny is somehow intertwined
I pray the hourglass extends the sands of time, time, time

God bless the Nazarene
Oh
Oh, God bless the Nazarene
Oh
Oh
Oh, God bless the Nazarene
Oh
Oh
Oh, God bless the Nazarene
