Andrew Jackson Jihad (AJJ) - Sense, Sensibility Lyrics






Earnesty and clarity
Those wonderful mentalities
Of decent positivity
Are all that we can strive
But misery and poverty
They follow me and my family
And though it seems that I can't win
I think I have to try
But everyone's afraid of me
They'll never see that we all bleed
The same damn blood each night

So you'll go your way and I'll go mine
I hope we meet up later on down the line

Sense and sensibility
And peaceful productivity
A pretty girl with broken wings
Is all that I desire
But there's so much hostility
In all the things surrounding me
The awful glow of enmity
Is trying to stop my shine
So I try to look inwardly
At all the things inside of me
But sodomy and buggery
Keep bubbling to the top

So you'll go forward and I'll go back
I hope we catch up with each other on the track

And I've been thinking awkwardly
About the things that are holy
Like Jesus, Joseph, and Mary
And Mary Magdalene
And even theoretically
I don't think I could ever see
The perfect human being
Jesus lived without sin

So you'll go upward and I'll go down
You'll go upward and I'll go down
You'll go upward and I'll go down
I'll see you in hell when we die

  19. k.... h....

    And I'll go up and you'll go downnnnnn.... I'll see in hell when we die.. :) O.O Somehow I love it :3

  20. B.... R....

    Been watching videos on melody. They constantly talk about how to fit the right amount of words into a sentence. Sean bonette totally doesn't do that in this song haha. He abides by no rules.

    B.... R....

    what are you talking about; he seems to get a perfect rhythm going with syllables

  21. A.... ....

    I like the end of AJJ songs!

    A.... ....

    Seems odd to me that you would so actively seek out music you don't like. Are you some sort of masochist?

    A.... ....

    @AeroProductions
    I am indeed a masochist. How did you know?

    A.... ....

    Lucky guess.

    A.... ....

    @AeroProductions
    If you wanna beat me, okay.

    A.... ....

    Progressive Feminist probably guessed it because your nane is progressive feminist

  22. W.... A....

    I really like that I'm not the only person who's very soul is defined by really wanting butt sex.

    W.... A....

    Whitman Alleman Day four in the ghost house.

    W.... A....

    Actually...

  23. D.... ....

    Does this remind anyone else of Bear Necessities from The Jungle Book for some reason?

    D.... ....

    Pee Beeyar top drawer scholar. Be more anal next time

    D.... ....

    They're probably referring to the way the song sounds rather than just the title of the song, but good job scoring your VerySmart points for knowing incredibly famous English literature. Everyone is applauding you.

    D.... ....

    Pee Beeyar Wow you're so cool dude

    D.... ....

    @Pee Beeyar I know this is 2 years old but I can't tell if you were joking

    D.... ....

    The bear necessities there actually kinda depressing you can't avoid the problems in your life 😂

  24. J.... J....

    and i like smoking crystal meth

    J.... J....

    But darling I love you

  25. L.... M....

    Actually, Jihad means "struggle." It's commonly misinterpreted as holy war because, and I forgot how the phrase actually goes, but because during the Hussein speeches he kept referring to a phrase correctly interpreted as "struggle with swords." Not attacking, just informing.

    L.... M....

    Is war not a sub-struggle?

    L.... M....

    5 years late but for the last 1000 years or so, jihad has been exclusively used for holy war.

  26. V.... ....

    fuck that, sean and ben deserve recognition and success. i hope they make it big so that their messages can spread and impact other peoples' lives as much as they have mine.

  27. B.... R....

    Hello people. I wanted to say that AJJ is in my top 5 favorite musicians and one of musics best kept secrets (although they're definately rising in fame) but i hope it stays on the DL. I'm a 21 y/o musician and i can't and won't say their inspiration shows in my music I thought I'd leave this spam here bc i know ppl who like AJJ are also fans of other underground music. Come check out the songs on my channel and tell me what you think! all songs have a link to my youlisten page for free download

  28. p.... ....

    But darling I love you.

    p.... ....

    same chords :DD

  29. A.... ....

    Well, I like telling dirty jokes.

  30. L.... ....

    The way he bends that last phrase "I'll see you in hell when we die" just sends shivers up my spine. This is just so incredible. I cannot hope to fully express how much I love this song.

  31. T.... ....

    Nope, It actually means struggle, like any daily struggle,doing homework, getting along with parents, mental Illness

  32. H.... H....

    This song...

    This song...

  33. G.... Q....

    A pretty girl with broken wings is all that I desire.

  34. s.... ....

    a crusade is a holy actual WAR where as a jihad can be a personal sense, such as this band

  35. J.... J....

    Clarity, attempting to be achieved here? ha.

  36. C.... ....

    i thought 'crusade' was a holy war

  37. C.... ....

    are u muslim, do u pray to many gods? and are those gods real? do u eat dinner with ur shoes off?

  38. P.... T....

    He's not a dick, he's understandably angry because of the widespread misconception about the jihad, a term which he's explained for us, rather than just spouting profanities.

  39. P.... T....

    Jihad is a badly interpreted concept. It only very rarely means holy war - that's the lesser jihad. Like you said, it's a struggle. The greater jihad is the struggle against every day life, and the struggle to survive. It's not a physical crusade. Everybody has their own personal jihad.

  40. p.... ....

    Shit, man, I thought Islam was a peaceful religion.
    Can't we all just get along. And if you don't like the music, just move on.

  41. J.... C....

    i googled it lol, it said "an inner spiritual struggle and an outer physical struggle."

  42. N.... T....

    Such a good album.

  43. A.... ....

    Nah, I'm bored at work with nothing to do. Also, I love AJJ, but I'm not going to get all pissy and fight someone just because they don't.

  44. A.... D....

    You seem like an intelligent person, so surely you can find a better usage of your time than arguing semantics/philosophy with some kid on youtube who likes folk punk.

  45. s.... c....

    Anyone Who dose not like this will get the shit beat out of them by me.

  46. U.... J....

    it would sound better if it were slower

  47. A.... ....

    What is Google?

  48. S.... S....

    No it's not. It literally translates to "struggle".

  49. M.... P....

    its not a holy war its a war against non belivers

  50. A.... M....

    Ironically, it is.
    Sorry if this was answered already hah

  51. l.... ....

    Fuuuuuuuuck Yeh!

  52. l.... ....

    Oh damn wasn't expecting this.. Fuck Yes!

  53. V.... ....

    i saw him play this song last night. hes so amazing

  54. s.... j....

    @Anarchy15Peace how do you know that? he sings about girls all the time

  55. 2.... ....

    1 person does not have sense nor sensibility

  56. A.... ....

    I had no idea that Andrew is gay, not that it matters its just interesting

    A.... ....

    His names Sean and he's not gay he just likes butt sex

  57. B.... L....

    I like the Pink Couch Session the best, a lot more energy.

  58. d.... ....

    @JJohnson1988

    it literally means "struggle"
    the "holy war" aspect is pretty offensive

  59. C.... A....

    @EmbraceRacism bro, im pretty sure your thinking about "infidel", not "jihad". i just googled it and it means struggle, not an unbeliever.

  60. v.... ....

    Best whistling solo ever

  61. D.... D....

    @JJohnson1988 it should be stressed that in conventional islamic thinking, jihad is a very broad term for a struggle. it can be like a crusade, but it can be an internal struggle like a person's attempts to resist temptation

  62. W.... R....

    @JJohnson1988 Well the literal translation just means "struggle"

  63. A.... J....

    Still very good but the slower version is much better in my opinion.

  64. J.... J....

    @xen0saga "Holy war", a crusade for a principle or belief, a struggle, etc.

  65. S.... S....

    actually its 7th from the bottom on the right.

  66. S.... S....

    It wont seem to let me post it.

  67. P.... G....

    @rammfan2732 wheres the link?

  68. S.... S....

    @ebony0129 ummm i could send it to you if you want, but here's a link to it on youtubbe (you could always rip it from there)

  69. P.... G....

    @rammfan2732 do you know where I could find the original?

  70. S.... S....

    Im kinda upset. I liked the original better. This version seems rushed n my favorite part was replaced with.....whistling. lol. oh well, the other songs are still kickass.

  71. M.... j....

    chances are it is
    but i dunno for sure

  72. A.... ....

    I wonder if that's Kepi Ghoulie whistling...
