Lyrics to My Reason by Tommy C x J.Reyez x Jargon

(Tommy C’s Verse)
Some people ask me why I stay home,
Everybody’s out at the club tonight.
And why you trapped in the studio?
Why aren’t out there living life?

Truth is I don’t dream at night.
Cuz I’m living it everyday.
Long as I got you right here.
Nothing’s gon change the way I feel.

(Pre-hook)
Imma keep grindin’, you can best believe,
That I won’t, won’t, won’t give up.
And go on and let it rain,
Tornados can’t stop me, no that ain’t enough.

You give me the drive,
So that I will make it through,
I close my eyes and there’s nothing I can’t do,
Blood pressure rising, no I ain’t smokin’ but I swear I’m feeling high.

(Hook)
It ain’t about money,
It ain’t about the fame,
I take this thing serious,
It’s not a game,

If you wonder why I do what I do,
Simple answer, it’s all for you,
I do it all for you, you,
Everyday it’s all for you, you.

It ain’t about money,
It ain’t about the fame,
Wonder why I do it?
You’re my reason.

(J.Reyez’s Verse)
I see em in the line, they all anticipating
before the music starts, seconds to greatest
bright lights and all of the beautiful faces
they all embrace it and I’m feeling so appreciated

I’m looking grinny, I smile at my enemies
sorry do I know you? nah you ain’t a friend to me
why do suckas lie just to get in the industry
love me or hate me, yeah bitch I’m bittersweet

I’m so greater, I dont understand the haters
another Asian in the game, they under estimate us
yeah I know I said it, another Asian pride line
but I influence, while you watching on the sideline

who better than myself to train me
I gotta represent for my people, take a swim in the mainstream
and what is swagger when you mention it to me
I don’t care, I just know that my perfection is the key

(Hook)

(Jargon’s Verse)
Look, I don’t do it for the man, man never notice
I Just do it for my fans- they the fuckin coldest
My life, my struggle, my deepest fears
My fans, are my reason, I’m even here!

I’m married to the game, no wedding ring
cuz I know if I leave, I’ll lose everything
n I aint ready to quit now, I aint gon sit down
I handle my shit now

Try to tell em what I stand for, haters like I don’t care
He’s (J)ust (A)nother (R)apper (G)oing (O)bviously (N)owhere
n Jargon supporters understand the definition
But the def’ in definition’s why the haters neva listen

instead a dissin, pay attention what I’m spittin
if you look a lil closer, might relate to how I’m livin
n if you gotta ask, why I do
i aint no different, this my reason- man I’m just like YOU

Asian American Jesus : short film

Asian American Jesus
Asian American Jesus has been on the film festival circuit. If you missed it, you can now catch it online. In the short, writer-performer Samantha Chanse plays six different compelling and memorable characters in this hilarious and insightful mockumentary exploring post-racial art, excuses for bad poetry, and the truth about dying on stage. Here’s more about the short:

Meet Truth Is Real, self-professed ‘mad scientist of the spoken word,’ and the subject of college freshman Suzette Law’s final project for her Ethnic Studies class, ‘Performing the Diaspora: Asian Americans and the Arts.’ Suzette grudgingly pursues her task by interviewing various experts on Truth Is Real’s work–the executive director of an Asian American Arts organization, the chipper barista of… an independent coffee house that hosts open mics, a college professor, a lone fan, and, of course, Truth Is Real. Suzette gradually arrives at a new understanding about post-racial art, excuses for bad poetry, and the truth about dying on stage. Interspersed with excerpts of performances by Truth Is Real, this hilarious and insightful mockumentary is written and performed primarily by the multi-talented Samantha Chanse, and is directed and co-created by Yasmine Gomez.
