Verse 1: I was 12 years old when I decided to rock the nation // I was sick of school, I was tired of indoctrination // I needed somewhere to hide so I locked the basement // and grabbed the microphone with a smile as I blocked the hatred // from those who doubted me 'cause I could do without it, see // I knew what I wanted to do, 'cause music is allowing me // to be free now as I look out over the crowd I see // these kids reminding me that dreams are never out of reach // so I'll keep conquering from north, west, south to east // 'cause nowadays I've got more than one mouth to feed // (you see) I went from gravel and pebbles to mountain peaks // so look at me now mom and dad, aren't you/I bet you're proud of me?... // Chorus: Once again - here I go // walking down that same old road // I've been high, I've been low // I've been lost but now I know // it's my life - it's my pain // I've seen sunshine, I've seen rain // through the storm - look at me // and you will see some kind of hero... // Some kind of hero... // Some kind of hero... // Some kind of hero... // Verse 2: Watch me turn a simple song into a masterpiece // right in front of everyone who's ever laughed at me // stepped all over my dreams and had me doubting myself // [ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/j/jaewon-lyrics/some-kind-of-hero-lyrics.html ] 'cause the first time they did I made a vow to myself // to never set my dreams aside for anything // that I wasn't going to hide, just write, but many things // came in my direction that I couldn't quite understand // couldn't comprehend, that's why I became a running man // staying up late nights trying to cure my stagefright // barely seeing daylight, living an insane life // it was obvious that I was running out of fuel // but I didn't give a damn that I was flunking out of school // this dream was all that I had and I would die before I'd let 'em take it // man, you must be blind if you can't see my dedication // it's so much more than just ink on a paper // so my spirit will live on through the tunes I've created... // Verse 3: Yeah, I admit it, there were times I was sick and tired // they thought I was gone but this dragon's still spitting fire // so focused, while these other cats sat back // I just kept marching with the swagger of a badass // I'm doing things that these legends have never done // and you know the funny thing is; I'm only 21 // but they keep denying there's a legend in the makings // waiting for me to abdicate when this is just my coronation... // jaewon.se

Verse 1: I keep thinking 'bout the dream I had last night // can't remember how long it's been since the last time // we sat down, had a proper conversation // I know that the way I'm living is causing complications // and it weakens me, it's overwhelming // when I try to call you but ain't got no reception // on my phone, I'm alone and it's crushing my hopes and // aspirations, there's a sudden rush of emotions // and sometimes when reality escapes // my mind, I thank God that I'm man enough to say // when I made a mistake and admit that I was wrong // I just take my feelings, make 'em fit into the song // and sing it to you, I just hope that you can hear me // (hear me...) and see the real me 'cause I can see you clearly // then I wake up, shaking and shivering, cold sweats // all over my body, I'm feeling homesick... // Chorus: Here we go now, baby // I've been on the move for so long // the road is getting darker // pray that you will lead me home // and I don't know, girl, maybe // I've run out of reasons to hold on // but then I hear your voice and // know that it will lead me home... // Verse 2: This is what I've been working for the past nine years // baby, lift your chin, I know feels like we're light years // apart but in a couple of days I'll be right there // to hold you through the cold nights, lead you through the nightmares // no more waking up crying in the middle of the night // I'll be happy to see your face on the pillow next to mine // feeling your wonderful scent as I'm kissing your face // and you're giving me goose bumps when you whisper my name // so we live and never regret, forgive but never forget // I just want to treat you right and give you the respect // that you need from a man, be the best I can be // 'cause when I feel you there resting on my chest, girl, I feel at home... //

Verse 1: Good morning world - time to wake up // to a brand new day, feeling great - yup! // that's right, baby, show 'em what you're made of // and I'm a do the same, put my feelings on the paper // but before I transcend the limitations // allow me to send an invitation // to (all of) my enemies and friends who've been awaiting // this moment, (I want to) thank you for your patience // thank you for providing the energy // that I need to survive in this industry // forward with a smile 'cause I'm living free // finally, now that I'm on a winning streak // you better believe that I've paid my do's // got caught (up) in the storm but I made it through // then I came back in my favorite shoes // now I'm a let 'em talk about it while I make my moves... (C'mon!!)// Chorus: This is where the journey starts // keep on following your hearts // maybe this is just a dream // but it's my way of living free // if this is where the story ends // I have no regrets my friend // maybe this is just a dream // but it's my way of living free... // Verse 2: True story - You see, I went from the stoop to the stage // stepped up, grabbed the mike and it blew 'em away // [ From : http://www.elyrics.net/read/j/jaewon-lyrics/living-free-lyrics.html ] exceeded every expectation that they had // prejudiced fools with their heads in the sand // were forced to wake up to a new beginning // of unchained melodies, moving rhythms // and a star shining to fill the vacancy // in the hearts of the people, it's plain to see // that I've got my own plans and ambitions // not sure what they are, but a man on a mission // nontheless, always handling my business // never going to quit... Now can I get a witness? // nowadays I just lock and load // and I'm a chase that bread 'til my pocket's full // they told me everything I wanted was impossible // but I just kept dreaming of rock'n'roll. Let's go!... // Chorus. Bridge: I'ma do my thang thang - I'ma do my thang... // Verse 3: Just when you got sick at the thought of rap // I came back with something sick and I brought it back // in the days, took you back to the days of cooking rap // stumble down a crooked path, forward without looking back // please support an endangered species // of hungry artists and play the CD // take it all in, sit back, let it marinate // beautiful fairytale told from the barricades // beautiful fairytale told from the barricades... //

Verse 1: Hi there girl, how you doing? Now forget about your hardships // for a minute, let us sit down at the bardisk // I usually prefer working over parties // but tonight I'm a rockstar, not an artist // (so) don't pretend, baby, you know who to go to // for that old school vibe, mixed up with that soulful // funkyness, oh so fresh - it's Stonerude // so cool, well, all right... Now let me show you // how we can go from partying our asses off // to eating burgers on the floor like David Hasselhoff // before the night ends and if you're bringing the right friends // the sky's the limit. You ready? Well, let's ride then... // Chorus: (x2) Feel the vibe, feel the vibe // all my party people get down // Feel the vibe, feel the vibe // if you came here to have a good time... // Verse 2: they know that it's JaeWon // rocking fresh shoes, step into the room with my shades on // Say, who? You know the dude who will make songs // with a chemical effect similar to an A-bomb // Boom! As the night goes on, just let that song play // see you sitting in the corner, homie, why the long face? // I've been working all day too, so I'm sorry // but that's a lame excuse when you came here to party // I've got to admit it I'm easily inebriated // on the dancefloor, feeling the heat when DJ's playing // that hot shit. Well, I don't mean to keep you waiting // so keep it shaking on the floor and I'll see you later... // Chorus. (x2) Verse 3: All right people, that's the last call, so clear out the dancefloor // everybody's stampeding out, shaking the asphalt // now it's 3 o'clock and we're dancing on the rooftops // to that 70's funk that's banging out the boombox // doing everything from the running man to the moonwalk // we rock on from Stockholm to New York // can't waste time, I say life is too short // to worry at all - let us all take our shoes off... // Chorus. (x2)

Verse 1: I heard... I, I, I heard... the early bird is the one that gets the worm, I'm // fresh out the nest, already taking it worldwide // (you poor thang!) people compared you to Mr. Curbside // and threw your demo out the window as soon as they heard mine // those executives and A&R's want that hotness // ain't got the key to success so they're calling on the locksmith // JaeWon is a monster, kind of like the lochness // used to fly with the luggage, but now I sit in the cockpit // and I'm about to have some fun with it - run with it // hun-gry like a beast. You want it? Then come get it // Oh, he done did it again now, thinking he's all that // you should either get with it or forget it and fall back... // Chorus: Bogus bounce, bogus bounce // everybody's talking gangsta but they ain't really down // Verse 2: From Australia to Asia, Eurrrope to the US // I step into the ring leaving competition toothless // too fresh, others rappers feeling useless // walking 'round the house all day in a robe like they're Hugh Hef // I know you've heard I murder tracks like it's nuthin' bro // now c'mon, let's put the funk back in dysfunctional // (Aoooow!!!) I'm a keep going, keep moving like a rebel // I'm a keep talking trash over groovy instrumentals // I'm a hell of an eloquent, diligent fella // with a lyrical sentiment, not necessarily intelligent // killing the melody, feeling adrenaline filling me // doing it for the hell of it, giving this business some elegance // now I'm a take you back to the basics // since 1999 I've been working the graveshift // now watch me turn my biggest interest into a paycheck // it's my first release and I just gave this industry a facelift... // Bridge: It's ok... Good times... // It's ok... Some fun... // It's ok to have a good time every now and then... // It's ok to have a little fun from time to time... // Hahaha... // Chorus.
