Danger Zone
Music
Release Date: 12/22/2015
Danger Zone is a study of contrasts. JJAHBG's 8th full length album, Danger Zone leans heavily on the band's trademark elements – poppy genre hopping while mixing serious or poignant tracks in with more bombastic or outrageous offerings to creat a dynamic ebb and flow that is uniquely their own.
JJAHBG captures their signature sound perfectly here. The satirical tracks are more outrageous than ever: profanity laced rap songs about championship belts and the evils of socks, punk jams honoring Slate's quote-unquote favorite artist and the consequences of bringing strange women home, and catchy but inexplicable EDM inspired tracks about emergency runs to Las Vegas and escaping the clutches of an REI executive. Mixed in are the more poignant tracks. Songs about loss, depression, or anxiety. Danger Zone is yet another triumph from JJAHBG, proving they are the masters of their craft.

Lyrics
Determination
Stripped from my dojo home
Young and buck
Goddamn they didn’t give a fuck
Forced to go north
I didn’t intend, but they did imply
That I was intended to be a bride for an exec at REI
I’m ripe for the taking
Fuck that noise, I’m on poise
Ready to plan my escape, drawing my cape
I won’t be no trophy wife for an executive fucking whore, yeah
Fucking whore, yeah
Fucking whore, yeah
Finally, I’m roaming free
No light can pierce though these eyes
Armed with pure determination
I’ll soon reach those blue skies
Opportunity arises when fools take a trip
Trekking through the forest
There will be no rest for those that fail the test
Nobody will see when I slip past, out of here fast
Because it’s fucking cold as ass
I’m going to bail on this shit ship
Give em the slip
I’m going to flee the scene like Kate Winslet
Like Kate Winslet
Like Kate Winslet
Finally, I’m roaming free
No light can pierce though these eyes
Armed with pure determination
I’ll soon reach those blue skies
Finally, I’m roaming free
No light can pierce though these eyes
Armed with pure determination
I’ll soon reach those blue skies
Blinded by the sun reflecting off of my own white legs
Trusting my chi, I flee
Freeing myself from the clutches of shitocracy.
Break necks, snap spines
I do what it takes to escape
I may be wrapped in fabric but don’t underestimate
I’ll come at you like a ton of bricks
Smash you in the face like some fresh squeezed juice
But the juice is your brains
But the juice is your brains
But the juice is your brains
But, but, the juice, the juice
But the juice is your brains
Finally, I’m roaming free
No light can pierce though these eyes
Armed with pure determination
I’ll soon reach those blue skies
Finally, I’m roaming free
No light can pierce though these eyes
Armed with pure determination
I’ll soon reach those blue skies
While you're sleeping
The stars come out while you're sleeping
The heart goes on
I am not afraid of what will come
I'm not alone
Not alone
The stars come out while you're sleeping
The heart goes on
The heart goes on
I am not afraid
I am not afraid
Of what will come
Of what will come
I'm not alone
I’m not alone
I am not afraid
Of what will come
Of what will come
Of what will come
While you’re sleeping
Where's your belt, brah?
They call me down with that street beat
Call me the future, see me cast in concrete
I never been opposed to painted white rows
Or dropping elbows on the faces of ho's
Hating on immortality
That’s what I call the refuge of the weak
Well what are they supposed to do with my prose
All these powers, and I ain't even peaked
Well that’s why I got the strap
How about that
Taken in the space of an afternoon nap
It gives me the power
Gives me the right to ask
Yo, where your belts at?
Where’s your belt, brah?
Where your belts, brah?
Where’s your belt, brah?
Where your belts, brah?
Where’s your belt, brah?
Where your belts, brah?
Where’s your belt, where’s your belt
Where your belts, brah?
Every man has a weakness
Well mine is pride
See me cocky and snide
Its hard to stay real when women cop a feel
I get more hand than Bradley Beal
Well challenges come, and challenges go
And when the challenge is done, you know what I hold
It rests on my shoulder like atlas' boulder
And I'll keep on holding it until I'm even older
The kingdom, the power, and the glory are mine
I tell myself that as I sip on my wine
Sometimes that weight feels real heavy inside
But you know, I like it just fine
I like it just fine
I like it just fine
I like it just fine
Where’s your belt, brah?
Where your belts, brah?
Where’s your belt, brah?
Where your belts, brah?
Where’s your belt, brah?
Where your belts, brah?
Where’s your belt, where’s your belt
Where your belts, brah?
Slate’s in the house
Are you ready?
I don’t think you’re ready
You just run out of time
Four, Three, Two, One
Fuck that
I know where my belts at
Tightly clasped, in my grasp, in gun number one
Wheres gun number two?
Knocking the fuck out of you
Equipped with a spark chamber
Designed to produce a muzzle flash
Straight straight to the face
So get out of my space
I am that champ
So don't you forget that, fool
Where’s your belt, brah?
Where your belts, brah?
Where’s your belt, brah?
Where your belts, brah?
Where’s your belt, brah?
Where your belts, brah?
Where’s your belt, where’s your belt
Where your belts, brah?
Where’s your universe?
Where’s your belt, brah?
Where your belts, brah?
Where’s your unicorn?
Where’s your solid gold?
Where’s your belt, brah?
Where your belts, brah?
Need to add it to my repertoire
Where’s your heavyweight?
Where’s your belt, brah?
Where your belts, brah?
Where’s your savior?
Where’s your ultimate?
Where’s your belt, where’s your belt
Where your belts, brah?
Need to add it to my repertoire
Where’s your belt, brah?
Where your belts, brah?
Where’s your belt, brah?
Where your belts, brah?
Where’s your belt, brah?
Where your belts, brah?
Where’s your belt, where’s your belt
Where your belts, brah?
You know
Fuck belts
I’m going to take your pants
David guetta
I devote my life to making that green
Step in my shoes and you know what I mean
I’d feel used but I ain’t got no soul, no
Didn't your mama tell you I'm a corporate whore
Corporate whore

Corporate whore
Yeah, I'm a corporate whore
So give me all your money
Then give me some more
Yeah

Yeah, hit ctrl+c with a flick of my wrist
Find me a singer who will attract more plays
That’s the recipe to how I get paid
Corporate whore
Yeah, I'm a corporate whore
Corporate whore
Yeah, I'm a corporate whore
So give me all your money
Then give me some more

Waving my arms around

Pretending I'm doing shit

She is just a girl
She is just a girl who
Paints herself in the colors of the world
They all stare but no fucks were given that day
Were given that day
She is just a girl who
Paints herself in the colors of the world
They all stare but no fucks were given that day
Were given that day
Far away in another land
Tricked from her inheritance
By some slight of hand
Raised to believe
In everything but herself
Stow her desires
Dreams on the shelf
She is just a girl who
Paints herself in the colors of the world
They all stare but no fucks were given that day
Were given that day
She is just a girl who
Has the power to change the world
Toils in obscurity
Unrecognized
Fire in the city
She's working from home
Don't need your pity
She works alone
There’s a fire in her heart
You just don't get it
She's a work of art
You just don't get it
She is just a girl who
Paints herself in the colors of the world
They all stare but no fucks were given that day
Were given that day
She is just a girl who
Has the power to change the world
Toils in obscurity (Toils in infamy)
Unrecognized
She’s villainized
breathe
It’s never
It’s never as bad as it seems
When your back's against the wall
Facing shattered dreams
It’s moments like these
When you find out what you're made of
Constructing your ideas
Or lost in a maelstrom
They're all arrayed against you
But don't let them bring you down
They're all out to oppress you
But don't let them bring you down
Inhale, exhale
Breathe
Inhale, exhale
Breathe
Inhale, exhale
Breathe
Inhale, exhale
Breathe
Inhale, exhale
Inhale, exhale
Inhale, exhale
Inhale, exhale
You got to
You got to get in the head space
When your world has fallen upside down
That it's right side up
You got to
You got to punch that fear in the face
Stare down, he’s on the ground
And just say, just say “sup”
They're all arrayed against you
But don't let them bring you down
They're all out to oppress you
But don't let them bring you down
Inhale, exhale
Breathe
Inhale, exhale
Breathe
Inhale, exhale
Breathe
Inhale, exhale
Breathe
It’s never
It’s never as bad as it seems
When your back's against the wall
Facing shattered dreams
It’s moments like these
When you find out what you're made of
Constructing your ideas
Or lost in a maelstrom
Inhale, exhale

Starlight
What’s this loving worth
Was this love your first
Because this love, it fucking hurts
Left me feeling so much worse
Is it all the same
When it’s thrown away
Now there’s nothing left but pain
And your heart, it goes to waste
Gone, but you're never far
Alone, but I'll never tire
I see you
Twinkling up among the stars at night
I hear you
Singing me to sleep on restless nights
Gone, but you're never far
Alone, but I'll never tire
I see you
Twinkling up among the stars at night
I hear you
Singing me to sleep on restless nights
Trouble
I stare into those big brown eyes
Eyes designed to terrorize
Their daggers pierce into my heart
Even when we're miles apart
I can't buy that coconut rum
Lock the door leading to my room
She parties with all kinds of men, but
I can't have girls over ever again
I can't take the trouble
I'm always in trouble
Every time I get little ass,
She's bursting my bubble, yeah
Because shes there, its not fair
She's fuming in the next room
Her temper is explosive,
Makes the walls kaboom
I got the feeling that she's pissed at me
Well, whats new? I'm in good company
I can't take the trouble
I'm always in trouble (He’s always in trouble)
Every time I get little ass
She's bursting my bubble (She’s bursting his bubble)
I can't take the trouble
I'm always in trouble (He’s always in trouble)
Every time I get little ass
She's bursting my bubble (She’s bursting his bubble)
Yeah
We're banging on the headboard
My lamp falls with a crash
We hear some angry cursing
The sound of teeth being gnashed
We step out of my room
And she's glaring at me
We step out of my room
And she's staring at she
Oh, them days of no trouble
They belong in the past
So I gather up my girl
And get the fuck out fast
I can't take the trouble
I'm always in trouble (He’s always in trouble)
Every time I get little ass
She's bursting my bubble (She’s bursting his bubble)
I can't take the trouble
I'm always in trouble (He’s always in trouble)
Every time I get little ass
She's bursting my bubble (She’s bursting his bubble)
Yeah
Socks are for bitches
Socks, socks are for bitches
Socks, socks are for bitches
I walk through these streets
Crunching through the snow
Check out these temperatures
30 below
Look left and right and what do I see?
Bunch of sock wearing bitches
Roaming the freeze
They've fallen for the liberal media hype
That socks under shoes fit just right
Self righteous bastards
Calling me crazy
Can't work it out
Their brain is too lazy
But I know the truth
Yeah I got the proof
That it’s all just a scam
I’m going to blow the roof
Off of this lie perpetrated by
The owner of the sock industry worldwide
Socks, socks are for bitches
Must be something in the water here
Socks
Must be something in the air
Socks are for bitches
So which one of y'all mind telling me why
All y'all bitches wearing socks in here
So which fools wear socks nowadays
Too damn holey for their own good anyways
So say you give in
Buy yourself a pair
Spend the whole day looking for a sock to wear
Its like you got a black hole lurking in your drawer
Furniture is determined to make you poor
Spend all your time
Place your socks just so
Come back later and where did they go?
Well I'll tell you where
They teleported back
To an unholy factory on the edge of the map
Package em up in new sock smell
Then off to target because they're ready to sell
Its a conspiracy
Perpetrated by sock industry
Yeah
Its a conspiracy
Perpetrated by sock industry
Yeah
Free your feet
Free your feet
Free your feet
Free your feet
Bunch of dumb lemmings I see everyday
One foot in the sock
And one in the grave
All wearing socks
They do what they told
And don't ask why
Because their mama said so
All round the world kids starve in the streets
Homeless people just looking for eats
While sock tycoons rake hand over fist
That corporate greed is making me sick
War? Socks
Crime? Socks
Hunger? Socks
Disease? Socks
Famine? Socks
The plague? Socks
Hatred? Socks
Bedtime? Socks

Shenanigans are to be had
I’ve got a list of deadlines ahead
Deadlines I’m missing
I’m tired as shit from staying up all night working
Bill for bill
Notices are due
Well yeah?
Yeah?
Fuck them
No time, no time, no time
No time, no time, no time
No time
I ain’t going
Ain’t going to do jack all damn day
Is it wrong if I just want
If I just want to play
I just want to stay up (I want to stay up)
All night (I want to tear it down)
All right (I want to drink until the dawn and the lights turn out)
Where it’s warm (I want to be warm)
And the lights (I want to feel born)
I want to feel the sun burn and I want it now
Chalice in hand (I got hand)
Fill it to the brim (Slate Fuel)
I am stumbling and my tummy is rumbling
Going to get some food
Chalice in hand (I got hand)
Fill it to the brim (Slate Fuel)
I am stumbling and my tummy is rumbling
Going to get some food
No time, no time, no time
No time, no time, no time
I just want to stay up (I want to stay up)
All night (I want to tear it down)
All right (I want to drink until the dawn and the lights turn out)
Where it’s warm (I want to be warm)
And the lights (I want to feel born)
I want to feel the sun burn and I want it now
Chalice in hand (I got hand)
Fill it to the brim (Slate Fuel)
I am stumbling and my tummy is rumbling
Going to get some food
Chalice in hand (I got hand)
Fill it to the brim (Slate Fuel)
I am stumbling and my tummy is rumbling
Going to get some food
Winter Chill
The rain falls
The fog rolls in like a dream
Jaded
Faded
Bleached with it’s own color
I remember what it felt like
Last December’s winter
So cold
So very cold when it pours
So cold
So very cold when it pours
Darkness knows no love
Darkness knows my name
Twilight after hours captures me
I remember what it felt like
Last December’s winter
So cold
So very cold when it pours
So cold
So very cold
