N.E.R.D. - Locked Away

[@_jjw_]

This sounds like it was recorded in the Fly or Die era, not ISO. In particular the drums sound just like those on Jump, Don't Worry About it, etc.

[@darkeese7732]

It definitely sounds like FOD, but its plausible it was recorded at the verrry end of the ISO era before they changed up their sound.

[@ThiefOfBaghdad]

@@darkeese7732 i believe this was 100% made for whatever they were planning for the second album originally.. mainly because In Search Of was already an album they had released (in 2001) before they had even linked up with Spymob and started using live instrumentation! also the drums do really sound like Jump and other tracks, that is actually a really valid point!

[@chill7015]

It was most definitely fly or die. That album sounds completely different than any projects pharrell or Chad has ever worked on (to date). I remember buying it my senior year in hs and being in shock by the sound.

[@slurpee4203]

the drums do sound like jump, you’re right!!

[@glekaz8849]

they had that early 2000s LA sound

[@trashboat4331]

this song makes me so happy. I’m 17 and I’ve been a fan of N.E.R.D for the past 3 years of my life and I love this band so much. They always make me happy especially through these tough and depressing high school years. I have cd’s and fly or die shirt and I LOVE them so much. thank you Pharrell Shae and Chad for making me happy with life 🖖❤️

[@lilbabytears]

Enjoy it kiddo. I felt the same way at 17 and this song still makes me happy at 25. Music never dies

If i would be that legendary artists in music. I would just release a compilation album of unreleased music every 2 years. Like all artists who ruled the 2000s music should be doing that but nooo. Like for example: Dr. Dre. He thinks that The chronic was so amazing that he was afraid to not top that album like c'moon.. it was 2000s of course it would be even better, stupid. Even if a hip hop song in 2000s was not good, it couldn't be trash because of the amazing style/vibe 2000s had. Who the fuck is excited about new albums anymore.

[@arkarmz589]

This should have been a hidden track on fly or die I think it would've fit on the song maybe

[Intro] Uh, uh, uh, uh (Hey) [Verse 1] Changed your mind I made you live a lover's life Changed your mind about all guys No kiss at the end of the night But it bewilders me When I'm sure that you can see So when I ask you, "How you think it'd be?" Just when I thought you would say to me, no! [Pre-Chorus] You keep me locked away You don't want to admit About me and you, hey! But I don't care, 'cause [Chorus) You make life worth livin' You make love worth givin' You make time worth spendin' (Thank you) Well, why ain't we worth admittin'? [Interlude] Uh, uh, uh, uh (Hey, yeah) [Verse 2] When you were in my arms Though inside, I could see the stars As if they were not far I read what they were saying They said the world is yours With her, you make it better So imagine you two together It'd be so amazing [Pre-Chorus] You keep me locked away You don't want to admit About me and you, hey! But I don't care, 'cause [Chorus] You make life worth livin' You make love worth givin' You make time worth spendin' (Thank you) Well, why ain't we worth admittin'? [Interlude] Uh, uh, uh, uh (Hey) [Verse 3] Hey, but what if you Miraculously feel what I do? Our split up can't beat us two It's like you speak in invisible-proof And you're writing the same Except you swap our names Trying to figure out this weird ass game And you're like real confused, shit [Pre-Chorus] You keep me locked away You don't want to admit About me and you, hey!

The gospel means “good news”. The gospel is the proclamation of who Jesus is and what He did for His elect only. The entire Bible (Old testament and New Testament) foreshadows and proclaims who Jesus is and what He did for His elect only (John 5:39, Luke 24:44). Jesus is the Son of God (John 3:16), fully God and fully man (John 1:1 & 1:14) and second person in the Trinity (Matthew 3:16-17). The gospel is God’s testimony concerning Jesus as revealed in the Holy Scriptures by the Holy Spirit which proclaims how Jesus the Christ (John 1:41, Matthew 16:16) was born of a virgin (Matthew 1:23) and born under the law to redeem His elect who were under the law and save His elect from their sins (Matthew 1:21, Galatians 4:4). God’s elect /sheep are the people past, present and future from every tribe, tongue and nation God actively chose to redeem/ justify/save based on Christ. God chose in Christ before the foundation of the world was laid according to the good pleasure of His will for His glory (Revelations 5:9, Ephesians 1:4-5). God actively created and chose a people from every tribe, tongue and nation before they were born for salvation whom God has always loved because of Christ and only Christ (Romans 8). God’s elect are vessels of mercy prepared beforehand for glory to make known the riches of His glory (Romans 9). God’s elect/sheep are God’s chosen vessels of mercy that are Jews and Gentiles because of Christ. (John 10, Romans 9:23-26, Hosea 2:23) God is Holy (Isaiah 6:3). God’s law is holy and good (Romans 7:12). The law of God demands perfection in word, thought, and deed at all times (James 2:10). The law was given through Moses (John 1:17). The law condemned all mankind and brought knowledge of sin (Romans 3:19-20). All people are under sin and none are righteous (Romans 3:9-18). Sin entered the world through Adam and death through sin and death spread to all mankind because all sinned. (Romans 5:12-13). Jesus Christ is the Passover lamb without blemish (1 Peter 1:19) for His elect by God’s sovereign grace (1 Corinthians 5:7). Just as the Israelites were released from Egypt after the death of the firstborn (Exodus 11-13) - Jesus Christ the firstborn of all creation (Colossians 1:15) justified all His elect at the cross from the wrath of God(Romans 5:9-11). Jesus willingly went to the cross (Philippians 2:8) and offered one sacrifice for all time for His elect He sanctified (Hebrews 10:11-14) as their representative and High priest. Jesus was crucified for the elect’s sin and raised for their justification (Romans 4:25). It pleased God the Father to crush His only begotten Son( Isaiah 53:10) and God the Father accepted Jesus’ perfect sacrifice on behalf of His sheep( Acts 2:23) . Jesus paid His elect’s sin debt and there is now no condemnation for those who are married to Christ (Romans 7-8). By Christ’s knowledge He justified all His elect (Isaiah 53:11) and finished His mission (John 19:30). All of God’s sheep will believe God’s testimony concerning Christ because Jesus justified them by His perfect sacrifice on the cross. Not one sheep Jesus died for will perish. Jesus is the good shepherd. Faith(believing God’s testimony concerning Jesus) is the fruit of what Jesus accomplished for His sheep. God’s sheep are righteous before God by the imputed righteousness of Christ provided at the cross as prophesied in Psalm 32 and fulfilled in John 19. All Jesus died for are regenerated at God’s appointed time to believe God’s testimony concerning Christ on who Christ is and what He did at the cross( Acts 13:48).
