Advocate
With native origins hailing from the Pacific Northwest Advocate officially kicked off his song writing and recording journey from the tender age of 12. Emcee and prolific songwriter at heart his influence is from the Psalms of David to the Clark Sisters, Paul Wilbur E-40, Tupac, GRITS and Outkast. I compose songs for those that are have felt like the underdog and wrestle with imposter syndrome, self sabotage, self limiting beliefs, procrastination, mislabelling by authority figures, those that have been broken, hurt, violated or scorn by life. I write and Advocate for all those listeners that desire to be reinvigorated with a message of life hope and a greater future found in a thriving and vibrant love relationship with their Creator and Designer.

Answer
Answer
Answer 
 
Verse 1
Overmedicated culture
Put warriors to sleep
Came to wake a generation
swords in their sheath
Underneath meek exterior 
Ability to obliterate
Wicked mind-states
Or increase crime rate
Destiny Not a blind date
choose your outcome 
Replay this album
Hunt truth like a falcon
Public housing
To the hamptons
I bask in
Immortal son rays
In desserts
Or in the aspens
 
CHORUS

Answer
Softly
(Repeat 3X) 
 
 When that angers present
Tell them demons 
Get up off me

Answer 
Answer softly
(Repeat 3x)
 
Eyes upon the kingdom
Taking up my cross
 
 
VERSE 2
War on poverty was really a war on black fathering
3x’s as likely 
as prior to diabolically 
placed legislation 
To motivate a disintegration of our nuclear unit
Making us anti prudent
Language of poverty 
We became too fluent
Poppa’s a rolling stone with government 
Saying 
Just do it!
Lay with that woman get her pregnant 
Then dip out
Now be awakened realize
That’s a cowards route
Told to have a whole squad
Never love a single chick
Serpent pitched a cold scheme
Got us hating covenant 
Elders watching youth strip
Cougar moms wiling out
Taking wild Girl trips
Tell me what is this about
Youthification 
Like 
Kruger or Jason
13 ruin dream 
Stop hallucinating 
orphan generation 
In need of wisdom 
They needing you to lead em
But you rolling with them
Make a decision
Just trying to clear my head
I know how you feel when
All You seeing is red
Things said
To destroy
got under your skin
Ready to take off on somebody
Retaliate
 sin
Why they get up in your bubble
Why they out here starting trouble
Rumors flying
Always lying when they open they lips
Don’t trip
Step back breathe
Just for a second
I’ve been in this situation
Needed peace as a weapon
Used to pop off on a dime
Blackout in my flesh
Pops told me it’s a fast way to prison or death
Told me pray for my enemies
Get your temper in check
Serpent in the wings waiting
With a leash on your neck
Cut his cord
New life with a double edged sword
You ain’t no sucka
If you suffer for doing right
You Noble
Self control is a fruit of the spirit
Stop going loco

The Blood of Jesus
Advocate

VERSE 1
Immersed in the spirit with no snorkel
Eating scripture love every morsel
Let it digest up in my torso
Power of faith 
When it is raised
Creates a force field 
Blocking sorcerors
In Christ I’m an immortal
Sleep for a minute
Raised up as royal
Saint’s sin can’t taint running the soil
Keep my lamp lit
Don’t be asking for my oil
Live in the miraculous realm
Cuz its normal
Seed time harvest
King’s mind artist
He freed my charges
Redeemed my body
Elohim time martyr
While you bling I honor 
Jesus Christ the lion of Judah 
No one is harder
Smarter than the average
Labeled a young maverick
Take risks walk on water till I splash in
Bask in his presence till I look just like him
Went from a coward to a spiritual titan
 
Through the blood of the lamb we’ve got
VICTORY
Ain’t nobody stopping us
VICTORY
Ain’t nobody dropping us
VICTORY
We are more than CONQUERORS
Victory
(REPEAT)
 
VERSE 2
 
This is for the low wage earner
High school educated
Blue collar worker
Filled with frustration
Nickel and dime 
Seems like a crime
When I get my 
Paycheck 
Straight stress 
Searching for my paycheck
Hole in my pocket
Trying to talk legacy
Kid’s saying nonsense
Mainstream hating me
Radio aint playing these
Cuz they bring liberty 
To all of the captives 
Trapped up in this industry 
Simply put
We raise up the standard
Searching for the answer
Better throw your hands up
Call on my dad Cuz
He heals cancer
Jesus is the one turning lame
Men to dancers
Hard rock’s to gems
Boys to men
You torn within
Then get born again
He’ll turn your mourning into the sound of Joy 
Every yoke of bondage destroyed
Oh Boy

 CHORUS
 

BRIDGE
 

What can wash away my sins?
What can make me whole again?
What can cleanse my dirty soul?
 
Nothing but the BLOOD of JESUS
JESUS 
 
What can wash away my sins
What can make me whole again
What can cleanse YOUR dirty soul
 
Nothing but the BLOOD of JESUS
JESUS
