Lyrics "Paradise" by Journeyy Am i dreaming or not Am I in some alternate world somebody bought All I see is purple clouds, theres water but you cannot drown, feels like I'm thinking out loud And the mirrors are broke How can i see with all this purple smoke And the music soft and calm now that im here it feels wrong Hope that you enjoy this song You roll the dice, now youre on thin ice Hear the bugs dont bite automatic lullibies purple clouds in the sky Welcome to my paradise Theres an aurora outisde, I feel it in the air everynight Birds that dont fly, People who can never die, Rain drops when you cry Why am I here, I feel a slight emotion of fear I'm fearful yes indeed, thats pretty much all the things I've seen Paradise, Paradise, Paradise, Paradise You roll the dice now youre on thin ice Oh here the bugs dont bite automatic lullibies purple clouds in the sky Welcome to my Paradise. Excellent Lyricism. So proud of him, he's going to do great things, never look back kid

I don't want to talk his potential or skills down BUT it could have been that some adults helped him OR (and I guess this might be more true) he used AI generated lyrics. You just mentioned the sheer perfection of matched syllables.

Give him his contract . Such an adorable kid! ✨

[@scribe712]

Good singers are a dime a dozen. There's more to earning a contract and selling both records and concert tickets than just talent. Not sure why so many people don't realize that. Otherwise every person with talent would be in the music business and doing well. But they're not.

[@mokaLARE]

Not yet. Let him enjoy his childhood. A lot of talented kids like him grow up being anxious and depressed because of the pressure parents and the industry put on them: recording, album making, touring etc. That is too much for adults already. Now imagine a kid.

[@Shegoesbyfe]

It wasn’t meant to be taken literal or that deep. I’d hope & would assume he has good parents who are doing their part to ensure the timing of any deals and ensuring he’s prepped for the music industry if that is the path they chose.

[@RanmineKimbini]

So much talent. Please take him far. Thanks for asking for his contact. 🙏👏

[@celestesmith1761]

​@@Shegoesbyfeexactly. But at the same time I understand what you mean. Yes there is a lot of talent out there, but it's obvious this kid has it. I haven't seen a child this young that can write like that. I might be wrong. I do hope that his parents are preparing him for a life in this business , like you said, if he chooses this life. Not many ppl know but Debbie Gibson produced herself, wrote her own music, and handled her contracts and such at just 16. It isn't recommended I'm sure. It's obvious this kid does got "IT"!

[@jacobmccain8794]

His ability to hear and create Melodies, the sophisticated lyric writing, the piano skills, and his incredible voice tell me he will 100% be a star selling out stadiums!

"There's a war in the sky , i feel it in the air every night" then later in the chorus he says , "I'm fearful yes indeed thats pretty much all the things I've seen " its perfectly describing the current palestine genocide going on from the kid's perspective. Genius .Like these few lines "birds that don't fly" "people who can never die" these contradictory phrases like the birds are dying( he's surrounded by death) and yet in the next line he conveys the ideal HIS ideal place His idea of paradise where people don't die. "Raindrops when you cry " it could probably mean the tears of people crying because of war in skies so the raindrops fall in his paradise . Im in love with this song ❤ wonderful its simple yet so powerful.

[@hollypatterson5376]

This child reminds me so much of my oldest child, Mykal. My child was self taught on multiple instruments, wrote thousands of lyrics and composed hundreds of songs. First competition he ever entered, was his high school show when he was in ninth grade. He sang one of his original songs while he played piano. It brought the house down. He not only won the competition. He won the admiration of other students, staff and teachers. I remember his English teacher saying that he had no idea that my child had all that inside. Just last week is the one year anniversary of losing my child of suicide at the age of 22. I will never be able to adequately explain that feels. Just make sure that you look at your child every time they walk in the door or even in the room, put your phone down and give them your undivided attention every time they wanna show you something or speak to you. I'm so grateful for the type of parent I was. I think if I would've had him 10 years earlier, I would've screwed it all up. Remember the child hardest to parent is the one that's no longer there. Doesn't matter how many other children you have they don't replace what you've lost. Hug your child for 20 seconds at least a few times a week. Every day that you love them. Learn their love language and speak it to them. I wish nothing but this child, journey, the greatest life that can be had. And I look forward to hearing more.❤

Lyrics: Am I dreaming or not? Am I in some alternate world somebody bought (?) All I see is purple clouds There's water but you cannot drown Feels like I'm thinking out loud And the mirrors are broke How can I see with all this purple smoke? And the music's soft and calm Now that I'm here it feels wrong Hope that you enjoy this song You roll the dice Now you're on thin ice Oh here the bugs don't bite Automatic lullabies Purple clouds in the sky Welcome to my Paradise There's a war in the sky I feel it in the air everynight The birds that don't fly People who can never die Raindrops when you cry Why am I here? I feel a slight emotional fear I'm fearful, yes indeed That's pretty much all the things I've seen Paradise x4 You roll the dice Now you're on thin ice Oh here the bugs don't bite Automatic lullabies Purple clouds in the sky Welcome to my Paradise

His audition finally aired. I seen his audition back in April when they filmed it and he was my favorite. They cut out the part, however, where Simon admitted to finding him on TikTok and wished he audition for the show. This was also one of two songs he sang for his audition, his first being a Bruno Mars song.
