Rapper Jin unleashed a sneak peek of a new track “Just Music” off his upcoming “Sincerely Yours” mixtape. Although it’s not final, it gives you a sense of the direction he’s going in. The autobiographical song shows how music has brought him both joy and misery over the years. Much like his Say Something Mixtape, Jin uses music to convey a message. He doesn’t write songs just so he can write songs. Jin understand that it has the power to lift up and bring down.

He’s had several song with similar topics including Beautiful Story and Say Something. We can’t wait for his “Sincerely Yours” mixtape.

Lyrics to Just Music by Jin

it’s quite plain to see
without music I don’t know where I’d be
now I’m feelin’ like I’m finally free
but this ain’t just music to me

it can lift me up
it can bring me down
that’s why I’m turnin’ it up
I hope your listenin’ now
this ain’t just music

see me and Hiphop have quite a deep history
a relationship filled with much joy and misery
started out as strangers soon became friends
got exposed to rap music at the tender age of 10
maybe 11 but let’s not get technical
took me on a journey that I never expected to
embark on like tryin’ to see with blind eyes
no idea what was in store for me at all time flies
now I rise nearly 20 years later
pushin’ 30 my careers just goin’ into labor
what I’m tryin’ to say is no need to research
what you are witnessin’ right now is a rebirth
I don’t write songs just so I can write songs
cause the right song’s impact is quite strong
less random punchlines more great rhymes
I’m tryin’ to change lives the way God changed mine

it’s quite plain to see
without music I don’t know where I’d be
now I’m feelin’ like I’m finally free
but this ain’t just music to me

it can lift me up
it can bring me down
that’s why I’m turnin’ it up
I hope your listenin’ now
this ain’t just music

music can be a platform for self expression
how to overcome struggle learnin’ life lessons
even though to just fall back is so temptin’
I’m all about movin’ forward progression
reality is just somethin’ that you can’t deny
it can make you laugh and it can make you cry
the lies are often unseen by the naked eye
and they’ll sell you anything just to make you buy
quiet as keep we influenced heavily
overlookin’ lyrics busy caught up in the melody
next thing you know you naturally sing along
deep down you realize that something is wrong
blindfolded mind is bein’ molded
but it ain’t your fault the only thing promoted
on the regular contents flooded with nonsense
so the question remains can you hear your conscience?

it’s quite plain to see
without music I don’t know where I’d be
now I’m feelin’ like I’m finally free
but this ain’t just music to me

it can lift me up
it can bring me down
that’s why I’m turnin’ it up
I hope your listenin’ now
this ain’t just music

they say it’s just music but I know better
once upon a time I would listen to whatever
now I know never underestimate the power
it’s eatin’ up my soul I ain’t tryin’ to be devoured
yeah yeah it can lift me up
yeah yeah and it can bring me down
yeah that’s why I’m turnin’ it up
yeah yeah I hope your listenin’ now

it’s quite plain to see
without music I don’t know where I’d be
now I’m feelin’ like I’m finally free
but this ain’t just music to me

it can lift me up
it can bring me down
that’s why I’m turnin’ it up
I hope your listenin’ now
this ain’t just music
