Crash is one of the new shows I’m into and Panic is one of the most likeable and original characters on the show. I really think he’s going to be back after this show – it’s his breakthrough performance.
So, in, I think, episode 4 Panic (Jocko’s character) goes to the studio and raps for the first time. What comes out is quite amazing, I recommend you watch that episode for a more complete experience. Otherwise, proceed to the MP3 that I got directly off Jocko’s myspace page.
You can play it right on this page (Edit: download link removed, per Jocko's request in the comments) or support Jocko by buying his album off Amazon for only $0.99 (see link below). I know it's really not my kind of music but I can appreciate good lyrics and execution. Enjoy.
Here's a streaming version:

This is Jocko Sims. Please remove the song from your website immediately. I appreciate your support, and I don't mind you streaming for searchers to play it, but you don't have the right to offer the download on your page. It is copyrighted, and available for purchase online.
Hey Jocko, no problem. I'll throw up a streaming only version later, if you don't mind. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for the support. Email me. I'll send you something…

(typed myself by listening to song)
Head Up By: Jocko Sims
Violent aint what im trying to be
But this violence follows me
Never had money for a P.H.D
Now I get money when i make these beats
Give to my hood, When i wake these streets
Speak from my heart motivate my peeps
Everyday i struggle trying to find some peace
Never had shit, Never be shit
But i keep my head up
Nigga gotta get dat g's
Live in a dream
But its alright
But it aint all good, We misunderstood
So im bound to repeat the same ol thing
Same ol ghetto 20" rims on on the whip, gold chains, and the Diamond Rings
Smoking that cheech, selling crack cocaine
Tatoo's of the dead homies
Here goes the po po, Get on that
Never made it past the age of 18
Thats why brothers like me get locked up, Made to Sling shackles, In the club with the pants saggin
Packed up in the back of the wagon, Ya'll get off me, Your killin me softly, Brush it off me, Speak quick and low
But I gotta go
5-0, when i freeze my pay roll (oh)
Its unlikely that i do the right thing like spike, Nigga's too caught up
Look at all us, Want to ball up
In the the club, in the mall up, till we fall up
Im lost trying to fine my way back home
I’ve been gone for way too long,
I Was a king, now im back claim my throne
A black king in the black family that I was taken from
Always dreamin, Tired of stealin, Theirs no hope for me
Im gonna struggle, That’s the only way I see
I just wanna do right
Father gave me this life
Everyday is a fight
But I still keep my head up high
Head Up!
Nigga gotta get dat g's
Live in a dream
But its alright
But it aint all good, We misunderstood
So im bound to repeat the same ol thing
Same ol ghetto 20" rims on on the whip, gold chains, and the Diamond Rings
Smoking that cheech, selling crack cocaine
Tatoo's of the dead homies
(Uh)
No time to think, Take a deep breath don’t forget to speak
Bring to the Lord my life to keep, Been through a lot of trouble way too deep
Down on my soul but I gotta flow speak
But I know what to be quick, Never too slow
Trying to tell nigga’s how to run the show, How to do well, How to blow up
Nigga roll up, Fucking hands up, Can you feel me
Po-po’s out still trying to kill me
The world knows, just still wondering why I have to try
At night I cry
Doing the very best I can,
But im the man, Nigga yes I am
Nigga bet I am, Nigga better be proud
Better be wild, I’m a be wild
Violent aint what im trying to be
But this violence follows me
Never had money for a P.H.D
Now I get money when i make these beats
Give to my hood, When i wake these streets
Speak from my heart motivate my peeps
Everyday i struggle trying to find some peace
Never had shit, Never be shit
But i keep my head up
Nigga gotta get dat g's
Live in a dream
But its alright
But it aint all good, We misunderstood
So im bound to repeat the same ol thing
Same ol ghetto 20" rims on on the whip, gold chains, and the Diamond Rings
Smoking that cheech, selling crack cocaine
Tatoo's of the dead homies
Head Up!
Nigga gotta get dat g's
Live in a dream
But its alright
But it aint all good, We misunderstood
So im bound to repeat the same ol thing
Same ol ghetto 20" rims on on the whip, gold chains, and the Diamond Rings
Smoking that cheech, selling crack cocaine
Tatoo's of the dead homies
Gotta Keep My Head Up
(Ooohhh)
(Yeah, Yeah)
(Keep your head up, Keep your head up)
(Oh)
(Keep your head)
(Oh)
(Keep your head)
(Yeah)
(Ooo)
(Yeah)
(Yeeeahhh)

Brilliant! Thank you for the lyrics – looks quite accurate. I'm sure many readers will also appreciate your efforts.
Duuuude i love this song this is fucking great man !! Keep Up Tha Goodwork Jocko!
love this song..!
dude i wanted to support the guy, cause i'd normally just go ahead and pirate me a download. but i really appreciated the music and when i discovered it was his only song i wanted to encourage him to put out more.
except that when i tried to buy from amazon.com they refused to sell it to me because i changed my billing address to a non-US one.
Where is the logic in that? What possible reason would they have to block non-US residents from buying a song!? it's not some national security state secret typa stuff. i am furious!
