Are You Even Real? (Official Visualizer)
Makeup by Dain Yoon
Shot by Josh Stadlen
Directed / Edited by Ryder Ripps
Lyrics:
There’s no five years
there’s no ten years
Only this
queen of queen of queen of queens
There’s no knife
‘Cause there’s no tension
Only this
lucid dream of dream of dreams
All I can do is trust in her
Late nights I can see the lust in her
Acid rain is a first for her
Skies open up ,share a cup with her
Cracking seals, guilty no appeal
Trip down the hill, strawberry fields
Are you even real?
She said tell me how you feel,
Are you even real?
Are you even real?
Well maybe I should study my reflection
Best to know,
How I seem I seem I seem
I spend the day
Dreaming of connection
Just to feel
How you feel you feel you feel
All I can do is trust in her
Late nights I can see the lust in her
Acid rain is a first for her
Skies open up, share a cup with her
Dream of connection
Tell me how you feel
Tell me how you feel
Are you even real?
Are you even real?
Then she ran
Then she ran
Then she ran her hands through my imagination
Then she ran
Then she ran
Then she ran her hands through my imagination
(Are you real?)
Dream of connection
Tell me how you feel
Tell me how you feel
(Are you even real?)
Are you even real?

I found myself listening to this song over and over. It’s one of the most dreamy atmospheric songs I’ve heard. You can literally feel love giving life and purpose. Life is what you make it. Things have meaning because we decide they have meaning. There’s something to be said about falling in love though. When you find someone whose soul you can absolutely embrace and feel overwhelming comfortable with. It really does make you question if they are real. Those moments when you can just stare at them and it makes you happy to the core. Then they run their hands through your hair- and it’s like heaven on earth.. they really are real. Beautiful song.

James is a refined artist. All his music is carefully crafted.

[@LucidStrike]

Which is funny, because he says they start off with him basically noodling around.

[@calvinking6409]

Just found out about this guy. A black man from the projects, and just really domesticating myself as I find "Me," I get this on a very deep level of individuality. Who we are as humans? What we look for? In life. Someone to connect with! This melody speaks volumes..

[@calvinking6409]

Damn, thanks for the likes everyone!! Much love

[@johannesgutenburg6425]

Looooooool

[@PoemSetToMusic]

🙏 heard 🙏

[@WazigeLogica]

Yeah.. Someone to connect with.. That longing for that someone that gets you completely without the need for speech even. Not just know you enouh to know what you're gonna say but know you in an all encompassing way. Your whole beeing. That one soul to reflect you.. That one soul that is you in another body. Have felt desperately, deeply lonely at times.. Like I was so isolated I could scream from the depths of my heart but feel like noone could hear and my sounds wouldn't reach the edges of this solitude. Deeply home-sick like knowing where you came from prior to birth and instinctively wanting to go back but not really remembering where it was.. But that's ok.. Today I can see the spark in strangers eyes and see fractions of myself (home) there, too.. Little pieces. And that's enough to get me through for as long as it takes.

[@calvinking6409]

James gives me all the feels ,deep deep down in my soul. So much emotional intelligence.

[@youroldthingwayyoungerthan6917]

He's an evil psychopath who kills off or frames for crimes anyone who might compete with him in the music industry. He even prevents them from LISTENING to music if he personally doesn't like them & claims he gave them their gifts so he can take them away. This narcissist actually believes no one really lives until HE comes into their life, so he feels like he is entitled to taking away anything. Go to hell, Antichrist.

[@stevenwolf2647]

Impeccable melodies, harmonies and writing but holy smokes that production is OUTTA THIS WORLD! The effects chosen, the transitions the mixing, the bridges, the back vocals... man what a genius.

[@annaandrea8320]

That is what I used to say to my ex all the time. "Are you even real"? By the grace of God, we are no longer together. Idk felt like this song spoke volumes to me. The violinist that plays in the song, also had a part in writing it as well. Which is so crazy, found him years ago, playing covers. And here he is, playing in this amazing song! 💗

[@orangevideo]

As a singer/songwriter/producer he is one of the best this quarter century. As an artist who pushes himself toward uncharted realms, he is near peerless
