“No Realer” is a grooved-out ballad with 808 driven funk to lift the head of any suffering believer from looking down to bobbing in faith. Funky guitar melodies and a soulful falsetto serve up a plate of soul food for the hungry. If you’re experiencing hardship, this song is a needful reminder to look unto Jesus who endured more than we could ever imagine. “No Realer” is the encouragement to pray for that second wind you need to run this race with patience.

Known humorously as the “Rapping Pastor,” Charles has embraced both his Pastoral role and his ability to go bar for bar with the best with hopes of using music as one of many viable forms of ministry to reach a lost people.

LYRICS

Bridge (Pastor Charles A.R.):
I don’t know what you’ve been through, 
But he has too,
And what he bring you too, he’ll bring you through

Chorus (Pastor Charles A.R.):
Now I done took a lotta hits bro, 
It don’t get realer let then this though,
Back bleeding when they hit him that whip, 
No pain can compare to Jesus, no you ain’t had it like this bro
Yeah it was dark for a minute when his lids closed,
3rd day Light shining a disco, 
Remember pain it endureth for a night, 
But joy come in the morning, everything will be aight 

Pastor Charles A.R.:
I’m well aware of what you’re feeling, & I won’t dismiss it,
I wouldn’t dare be so insensitive to your existence,
I know the distance, the stress and depression’s so persistent,
You by yourself with nobody else, you feel no assistance,
Know how you feel when you feel how you feel bro,
Like on the real, Lord I trust you what's the deal though?
Imagine Christ when He had to pay ya bills bro,
Knowing you’d be killed on that Cross but you still go,
You get exhausted you feeling it from the race,
Look unto the author and finisher of ya faith,
Set aside ya sin the heaviness make ya faint,
& run the race with patience and take off the ankle weights,
So I strengthen the feeble knees, 
Lift up the hanging hands, praise and receive his peace,
How I’m complaining? Murmuring when they murdered him?
Jesus took every nail, know it hurt him when they inserted them

Chorus (Pastor Charles A.R.):
Now I done took a lotta hits bro, 
It don’t get realer let then this though,
Back bleeding when they hit him that whip, 
No pain can compare to Jesus, no you ain’t had it like this bro
Yeah it was dark for a minute when his lids closed,
3rd day Light shining a disco, 
Remember pain it endureth for a night, 
But joy come in the morning, everything will be aight 

Pastor Charles A.R.:
I know pain, I know struggle, I complain, 
But isn’t it ironic, half the time I’m to blame,
and I know rain, riding my lane on this road to recovery suddenly I done hydroplaned,
I won’t lie or hide my pain, I’m gone cry, why refrain?
Do you remember Jesus crying in gethsemane, 
Blood replacing the sweat now can you say you’ve cried the same? 
Yeah, dark nights on the front line,
Lift ya eyes, after night comes the sunshine,
Have they abandoned you? Devised wicked plans on you,
Nehemiah keep building cuz Christ cemented His hands on you,
Would feed your Judas if you knew that, 
In the future your Judas would prove to be an intruder, 
Nah you would do it, you’d prolly give him the boot
Homie said he was your shooter, not knowing it’s you he’d shoot at,
Simply put, I’ve concluded we could measure our,
Suffering to our savior, we certainly got it better cuz, 

Bridge (Pastor Charles A.R.):
I don’t know what you’ve been through, 
But he has too,
And what he bring you too, he’ll bring you through
Chorus (Pastor Charles A.R.):
Now I done took a lotta hits bro, 
It don’t get realer let then this though,
Back bleeding when they hit him that whip, 
No pain can compare to Jesus, no you ain’t had it like this bro
Yeah it was dark for a minute when his lids closed,
3rd day Light shining a disco, 
Remember pain it endureth for a night, 
But joy come in the morning, everything will be aight
