Chris Rene是第一季The X Factor 的最後決賽者之一。

這首歌是他在第一次初選時上台唱的歌,在最後十位決賽的時候也有再重唱一次。

這是一首他自已做詞做曲的歌,當我第一次聽到的時候,就覺得他不需與其它人競賽去簽那年薪五百萬的唱片約,只要拿這首歌去賣,大概很快就可以賺到他的五百萬了吧。

對我來說,他是一個很激勵眾人的存在。

他出生在一般的家庭,因為交到壞朋友而開始吸毒犯案等等,甚至進到監獄服刑。

出獄之後則一直從事垃圾工人的工作。而後在親友的說服之下去參加了X Factor的選拔,當時在台上Simon還要他先發誓自己再也不會碰毒之後才答應讓他進到下一個階段。

之後,他總是不斷地宣揚,不管你是什麼人,什麼身份,有夢想就要全力以付地去追求,也可以變得像他今天這樣。而他,就是一個活生生的例子。

所以每次聽到這首歌的時候,總不免讓人有種心頭滿滿的感覺,因為最近才終於可以在YOUTUBE上找到這首歌的MV,所以特地貼上來與大家分享喔。

Chris Rene - Young Homie

Open up my mind with these spoken words, 
Let this music heal like an overture, 
She's the only one, one, one, yeah, 
And so I roll with her, ooh, 
That's how it's supposed to be, 
Living life with loved ones close to me, 
Shh, ahh, this is the remedy, 
And I got the recipe, I don't need no Hennessy, 
Yeah, it's been three years now, 
Haven't had a drink and I'm starting to see clear now, 
I'm putting all my fears down, 
I can hear the cheers now, 
Seeing peace signs when I look around, 

Hey, young homie what you tripping on 
Looking at life, like how did I get it wrong, 
Life's too short, gotta live it long, 
To my brothers and sisters when will we get along, 
Hey, big homie what you tripping on, 
What you really tripping on, 
Life's too short, gotta live it long, 
To my brothers and sisters when will we get along 

Give peace to the war in the streets, 
Give peace to the eve of the creeps, yeah, 
I just ride, put my hand to the sky, 
Live life like I'm never gon' die, 
See we be fighting and fussing over nothing, 
So much destruction, looking upwards, 
Combusting like nothing, now listen, 
It takes an education, to change your reputation, 
From bad to good, your even better now your elevating, 
They be singing, family singing, everybody's chilling, 
Not gonna stop this, living on the feeling, 
Man this is the real thing, tell me can you feel me, 
Wait until they drop this, dancing on the ceiling, 

Hey, young homie what you tripping on 
Looking at life, like how did I get it wrong, 
Life's too short, gotta live it long, 
To my brothers and sisters when will we get along, 
Hey, big homie what you tripping on, 
What you really tripping on, 
Life's too short, gotta live it long, 
To my brothers and sisters when will we get along
