j.p. the Soundtrack, Volume 2

SIDE 1: FLOODS OF THE WORLD WHICH WANT TO DROWN ME

• Flood Jars of Clay Jars of Clay (c)1995
  It's how i feel sometimes (actually, most times), with all the busy-ness in my life, and my lack of depending on God

• Pressure Point Sounds of Blackness Evolution of Gospel (c)1992
  i think the song says it all

• Hero Steve Taylor Now the Truth Can Be Told (c)1993
  i keep fantasizing about how i can be a hero, but there is only one true hero

• Big Man's Hat Charlie Peacock West Coast Diairies, Vol. 2 (c)1990
  Talking about my ego, and the consequences

• Somebody to Shove Soul Asylum MTV Unplugged, Vol. 1 (c)1994
  i need somebody to shove me...out of my comfort zone

• All That i Need is to be Loved Moby Everything is Wrong (c)1995
  Both the style and content reflect my mood at times (to me it's a love song for God)

• Black Box Raspberry Jam Oceanic (c)1995
  This song reminds me of my mom...

• Paint It Black Rolling Stones Aftermath (c) 1964
  Also the theme for CBS show "Tour of Duty", how i feel at times, even as a Christian (especially in high school)

• We Take the Blame Worldwide Message Tribe Dance Planet (c) 1994
  This is a great example of how Christians should be taking responsibility for the world's problems, rather than blame everything on the actions & attitudes of "sinners"

• Violent Playgrounds Preachas Violent Playgrounds (c)1993
  This what i live around everyday; either Verse 1 or Verse 3 will be the future for children in Uptown

• The Antagonist G.R.I.T.S. Mentally Unreleased/Underground Remixes (c) 1996
  This song really speaks to me, and especially Christian males dealing with " issues"

  SIDE 2: FOUNTAINS WHICH FLOW WITH LIVING WATER

  For all the blame and judgment i put on others, i'm really the biggest criminal in my life

  This is part 2 to Criminals, what i need to carry out every day, but often don't.

• Abhor Evil 12th Tribe Livin' in Babylon (c)1992
  This is a (spiritual) warrior song

• Winter Men of Standard Men of Standard (c)1996
  Biblical, but very real. I first heard it on WGCI (106.7 FM -Chicago, IL)

• Love Thy Neighbor Ladysmith Black Mambazo Two Worlds, One Heart (c) 1989
  This montage of Scripture verses gives me some direction for life: take positive action

  As of this writing, i don't understand all the words, but enough to know Jesus' grace

• Color Green Rich Mullins A Liturgy, A Legacy and a Ragamuffin Band (c)1994
  This is a legitimately happy & joyful song. It makes me wanna run around on some grass field

• i'm Happy Kronos Quartet Pieces of Africa (c)1992
  This is a happy song.

• Glory Halagroovin' SFC (Soldiers For Christ) Phase III (c)1992
  This has brought me joy. It's brought to you by the best (the "Godfather", if you will) in the Holy Hip Hop scene, Sup (a.k.a Super- C a.k.a Chris Cooper) & Friends

• Joy Worldwide Message Tribe Jumping in the House of God (c)1996
  i often forget that because of Jesus i have a real joy, a joy that transcends circumstances

• Washed Away Arrested Development 3 Years 5 Months 2 Years in the Life of... (c)1992
  A metaphor for Life. So..."will you help us...please?"
