Jehst Returns in 2012 with one of the most antcipated hip hop albums in the United Kingdom. The album marks a new era for jehst having released his highly acclaimed albums/EP such as High Plains Drifter it seems jehst wants to take a different approach this time round.
The first track on the album is 'True Intentions' which is a great opening track, the song and whole album moves away from the gritty & dark style jehst displayed on previous albums and has a more relaxing and thought provoking display of his lyrical abilities.
Track #4 is titled 'Thinking Crazy' and is focused around a subject I'm sure many of us have experienced, being broke. The opening skit brings humour to the track,followed by Jehst rapping about the situation and possible avenues like robbing every enslaving bank out there.
The next track following Thinking Crazy is titled 'England' which features Jehsts rebel behaviour by not conforming to Modern Day Life in England. The Track gives a realistic view point of the country and it's not so hidden truths which ends with Jehst still showing his love for the country.
- I've still got love for the Place where I'm living
- But right now there ain't nothing great about Brtain
If you've been a fan of Jehst since day one or have only recently discovered his music, this album is guaranteed to please your ears.

Tears in the Rain Lyrics
- Let me pour out my bleeding heart
- It was all fucked up from the start
- I was just try'na play my part
- And they say it ain't the winning that counts
- It's the taking part
- But when you lose maintainings hard
- And if you choose to complain they laugh
- At your pain so you pick up the pad
- Put the needle to the vein
- It's the same old same
- I've seen it all before
- And I'm sure that I'll see it again
- Strange Days
- When people act in strange ways
- And end up locked in strangeways
- For the way they behave
- The sky is always a shade of grey
- That's why I'm try'na make my pay
- And escape the UK
- It's a love-hate relationship
- No doubt - do I wanna stay?
- Nah, I wanna break out
- Cause the rain clouds overhead
- Got me feelin dread
- Got me feelin like I'm already dead
- Nothing left to lose
- If it was left to you, would you ever try to step in my shoes
- And finish my work
- If I was under the dirt
- There's only so many bridges, that's another that's burnt
- Another confirmed my fears
- I've been feelin the hurt for years
- Dealin' with my people and my peers
- And the cries for help,
- Fallin on deaf ears
- I guess everything must end here
- And it must end now
- Shut, shot cause' I'm closin down
- I'm broken down
- I hope that there's no one around
- To see my Tears in rain, dealing with the years of pain
- I'm still here tryin' to maintain
- Still here tryin' to maintain
- It's the same old same yo it's always the same
- It don't change
- Tears in rain, dealing with the years of pain
- I'm still here tryin' to maintain
- Still here tryin' to play the game
- Still rollin the dice
- Gambling not knowing the price
- And if there really is a God I must owe him my life
- If God exists then I owe my life
- Enemy or friend? Friend or enemy?
- I touch tracks tenderly with a suicidal tendency
- And when I'm gone nobody can fill the vacancy
- They'll never say I was a victim of complacency
- In the place to be seen I was home banging beats
- Baggin trees try'na make ends meet
- The only way I know how, for now
- I couldn't stay at my mum's I moved out of the house
- I'm too proud, crafting to earn a pound
- And it's my own little niche that I'm carving now
- Don't ask about the ups and downs
- Can't you see that I'm still try'na turn my frown upside down
- I cry the tears of a clown
- Tears in the rain
- I'm like a dusty old photo in a rusty frame
- An old relative you can't remember the name
- And if it wasn't for me
- Things just wouldn't be the same
- To see my Tears in rain, dealing with the years of pain
- I'm still here tryin' to maintain
- Still here tryin' to maintain
- It's the same old same yo it's always the same
- It don't change
- Tears in rain, dealing with the years of pain
- I'm still here tryin' to maintain
- Still here tryin' to play the game
- Still rollin the dice
- Gambling not knowing the price
- And if there really is a God I must owe him my life
- If God exists then I owe my life
