J. Allen's Testimony of Faith in Christ. His favorite song of the album!
lyrics
Jono:
I will rejoice in the Lord all my life.
He is the only one who saved me from my strife.
I was down.
So alone.
Empty.
And Weak.
But God was the Answer
I needed to Seek.
Dear Lord, where would I be?
Without You, I would die.
I may never repay You, Lord,
But You know I will try.
Oh, I was down.
So alone.
Empty.
And Weak.
But God was the Answer
I needed to Seek.
[Translation of Tongues- I will forever sing my praise for the Lord and keep Him in my heart. I came to Him at weakest moment, not knowing what to expect and He saved my life. I tried so many other ways to make myself happy. In the end, God was the answer. With my sins forgiven, I can truly live. Thank You God. In the name of Jesus Christ, Thank You for saving my life. Amen.]
I felt down.
I felt alone.
I felt empty.
No one cared.
I felt down.
I felt alone.
I felt empty.
No one cared.
Too much in my head...
Socially isolated.
That was me, God.
That was me, God.
That was me, God!
That was me...
So I sought out the best doctors to fix what was in my mind.
But it seemed I could not leave depression behind.
So I hid my pain from all.
I hid it deep inside.
'Till one day I broke down,
I looked up, and I cried,
"What is the point, Lord?
What more can I give?
How can I go on?
Why should I live?"
"How can You love me,
A man that's so weak?
What is the answer,
The answer I seek?"
Again, I asked.
"What is the answer,
The answer I seek?"
And they said.
R. Adams, I. Comer, Romane & Lettuce:
"God is the answer,
The answer you seek."
Jono:
"What is the answer,
The answer I seek?"
R. Adams, I. Comer, Romane & Lettuce:
"God is the answer,
The answer you seek."
Jono:
"How can He love me,
A man that's so weak?"
R. Adams, I. Comer, Romane & Lettuce:
"God is the answer,
The answer you seek."
Jono:
"How can He need me,
A man that's so meek?"
R. Adams, I. Comer, Romane & Lettuce:
"God is the answer,
The answer you seek.
God is the answer,
The answer you seek.
God is the answer,
The answer you seek.
God is the answer,
The answer you seek.
God is the answer,
The answer you seek."
God is The Answer.

Emma G sings with passion for what is good and is not afraid of those who are filled with hate. She possesses a very empowering and beautiful soul which she shares through her music. Bassman Jono
Drew "Droopy the Broke Baller" Anderson works to raise a new generation of conscious minds. In whatsoever he does, his words reassure love conquers hate and that justice will prevail. Bassman Jono
Nick Classic is the next voice of a generation ready for real progress. His commitment to his music is evident and his ascent to stardom is quickened by commitment to his faith in justice for all. Bassman Jono
One senses the late Marlene Marder (of Kleenex/Liliput) would approve of the sharp, imaginative punk tunes from this Baltimore group. Bandcamp New & Notable May 25, 2016
