Artist: Jay Electronica
Song: The Pledge (Eternal Sunshine)

Part I - Eternal Sunshine
Part II - Paper Thin
Part III - Voodoo Man (omg, best shit ever)
Part VI - FYI

Jay Elect's calling card...

I had seen individual parts uploaded, as well as the full version, except with subpar quality... so this is for those looking for a version like... this one ;)

This is a little thing I edited on my editing program... it was fun cuz I love this song so much and I got to play around with the pics and text and such and why would you care...

----------

*I KNOW these lyrics have errors... I copied them from a site... I fixed a lot of them but an error caused the edit to not go through, and I'm too lazy to fix them all again at the moment. -miguel

she said she never fell in love with a superman
christian muslim protestant lutheran
i told her that bein a mortal is the portal to the
true nature (of growth to) christ like buddah man
thats why i never speak the traditional garbage of a
knife fight, bright lights, white ice to the fans
the radio is just a stereo like a house in a home
and a chairs and the chair acts with the van
go to work go to church, let your dreams die
bowtie final call in the beanpie
yamulke for hanukah, wishlist for christmas
this is the jist of the life that we lead, why?
so you could fit in, with the closed minded in the sit-in
and get clotheslined in the id-end
i could care less about a plaque and a bid-enz
get punked on tv by my frid-ends
dont get a nigga wrong, i get tempted by the
rewards that all come along with makin nigga songs
but what does it mean if im a muslim and you a jew
and because of that alone we dont get along
and when you talk like this and try to walk like this
the radio stationsll never put a nigga on
just mims, just 50 just Wayne
just jeezy and franchise boys and jimmy jones
fuck that, fuck rap, this god house
kingdom music for the hard rocks
ima spit it til trl get it and hot 97 hit a nigga with a bomb drop
ask flex ask slay ask who kid
just blaze said jay hes the new kid
i took eternal sunshine and i looped it
no drums, no hook, just new shit
-----
the handling of a hearts a very delicate art cuz its paper thin
one irrelevant thought that started out as a spark
could be a poisonous dart that leaves a permanent mark
thats ice cold in the day; it burns in the dark
and makes you never wanna see her face again
tee hee what a place im in, lead me to the station
a one way ticket, dont look back,
one cold tear that frozen crack
a whole lot of pain im holdin back
chef said F that, roll the sack
i said, if my skull was cracked, and blood ran out to the cul-de-sac
that could not match me where im at
my memories flash me there and back
yep, there goes me right there and black
holding hands not staring back
she starts crying, i start denying
that its my fault im aware of that man
in hindsight signs be glarin back,
wheres the map to show you where ya at
i could hear the cryinyelling i can smell the thai smoke
i can hear the starter pistol wheres the track
ring, no answer, came home late, jane told dick she had a date
but theys just chillin, and at that moment, the right brain says to the left just kill em
make the headlines, make the frontpage
wild out in the courthouse man thrill em
they all say the boy dead wrong but i feel him

  • i listened to a nine minute song for about an hour now

  • This single piece of music has its own place in Hip-Hop history. This man is genuinely a genius. Ironically reminds of Nikola Telsa in more ways than 1.

  • 2:06 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

  • @PieandBiscuits It's from a movie called Turtles Can Fly

  • nicki mnaj's stup hoe song has 10 million views in 4 days, yet this, 364k......wtf man, does anyone else see a problem with that?!?

  • he's Wu Tang material but, in his own league seperate from Wu Tang, a real legend already, and a damn shame that his stuff isn't main stream, if people knew what real music was, he'd be one of the most piad artists today, not nici minaj or katy perry, or justin beiber or roscoe dash or any bullshit for that matter

  • Does anyone know what the excerpt before Part III is from and what it's significance is? I'd really appreciate it!

  • @TheCorazyCam Its not for purchase it was released for free on his Myspace in 07. Jay has no official mixtapes or albums, you can grab some unofficial compilations(Style Wars EP, What The F*ck Is A Jay Electronica or Electrochemicals) on datpiff or various other sites. As of right now I believe he has no purchasable music other then a few singles on iTunes (Exhibit C / A; Close Your Eyes and Landspeeder under the group The Bullitts). Peace.

  • 4:17 always gets me

  • I feel as if I'll never full understand the true meaning of this song

  • This whole thing is amazing, thank you Jay for creating this...
