    A moment of silence for those who will never find this song...

    There are very few musical geniuses out there. Ray Ray is one of them. He reminds me of Prince and Shuggie Otis. He can play an entire album by himself flawlessly. I hope this brother continues to bless us with his talents. He appeals to the listener which might be why we don't hear from him too often. He's more of a conceptual artist than a mainstream artist. Keep jamming brother Ray!

    Prince is not dead.
    His spirit is still among us by connecting to certain artists

    He's always in three places
    Spaces undefined
    Heart is always racin'
    For something he will never find
    Eyes are black
    Black and cold
    His soul has been shaken
    So shaken
    I believe he knows
    The sun could never reach him
    The view looks like a bomb
    The paradox is far away
    His brain weighs at least a ton
    His mind is so stressed out
    Tryin' to be a king
    When everyone around him
    Sees the clown and
    They're laughing at him
    Look at this idiot
    Don't know he's been set up to fall
    Can't find the truth in any friend
    And all he ever does is want drugs
    [Chorus]
    This world is drunk
    And the people are mad
    This world is drunk
    And the people are mad
    This world is drunk, ooh
    This world is drunk and
    This world is drunk and the people are mad
    Verse 2]
    He doesn't get a listen
    Not even to himself
    He spent 4 years away
    Was led astray
    Convicted for fraud
    He said he knows more now
    Now that he returned
    The books that he read there
    Told him he had gone too far
    He's always feeling left out
    And he always left his friends out
    He never understood why
    That most of his friends are just bums
    He's tryna live better now
    He says he needs that family life
    He can tell he wasted much time
    Winter time has taken his life
    And making him miserable
    He never feels he's in control
    He finds it hard to walk away
    So all he ever does is stay drunk
    [Chorus]
    This world is drunk
    And the people are mad
    So mad
    This world is drunk
    And the people are mad
    So mad
    This world is drunk, ooh
    This world is drunk
    So drunk
    This world is drunk
    And the people are mad

    This man speaks the truth in his songs. He knows everyone has been through hell and back in some type of way. Creating songs that reflects today's struggle, in daily life challenges, is relatable to many people around the world. This is the reason why he will always have support from his fans. Do you Raphael.
