Short Biography

Jesse Means was born as the fifth child of eight in the southern state of Alabama in Montgomery.

Nearly one year of age, Jesse lost his father to tragedy, leaving the mother to raise the family alone. Although money was always short, he graduated from High School in Lowndes County until the 11th Grade and moved to Birmingham. For a short while, he attended Alabama A&M University in Huntsville , Alabama.

Jesse studied electronics at Gilmore-Bell Vocational School in Bessemer, Alabama. Although he was a grade A student in Electronics, he decided to persue dance and loved a variety of different styles of music. He had been singing since the age of 7 and later in life became a member in the church choir. Also, he was a Public Speaker in the 4-H Club, in Lowndes County in Hayneville, Alabama for the Lowndes County Extension Services. For a number of years, he won numerous awards competing in Public Speaking contests, throughout the state.

When he attended Alabama A&M University, he majored in Sociology and English Literature, where he learned about creative writing and poetry, which later allowed him to compose lyrics.

Years later, he worked a lot of odd jobs to support his music, poetry and songwriting. He also worked in the aviation field as an operations specialist at Birmingham Shuttlesworth Airport, in Birmingham, Alabama for 12 years. Later, he moved to Germany to persue new career opportunities. Jesse always had a love for poetry and through the years, he has written about 500 songs and 300 Poems to date.

Jesse has recorded several songs and performed regularly at local hot spots and clubs with his own material and some cover-songs.

Jesse also toured in Bulgaria for a month and also in Cologne at Tanzbrunnen, and in the city of Erfurt.

Jesse currently works and lives in Germany and continues to write on a daily basis.

No Limit

In reverberation, and in druthers, your words rebellious, we go away from;

If truth be given, have I many doubts;

In abundance the profits obtained, truth will out;

In breathing air, the human sustenance betrayed;

From the powers that be, the world appears, like the seventh crusade;

Off limits to smoke, a taboo to drink;

Off limits to eat, and outwardly to think;

If you eat this, you will get fat;

If you smoke this, life fades to black;

Bear in mind we are all here, at the bat of an eye;

To live our lives rather than, vexing in reverse, to transmogrify;

Life begins when we decide to live it;

Without misgivings and with infinite spirit, there is no limit.

The King James Climb

In locus of Ohio, a shooting star, emerges;

In Akron, like the milky way, you hail from;

Globe-trotting, all over the universe, to dominate;

In the game, that you play, so effortlessly, we celebrate;

A fanfare of cheers, and happiness conveyed, that resonates; and with every ring gained, wholeheartedly, you appreciate;

A power forward and a shooting guard, in the star sign, of Capricorn;

A Laker beyond the game, to emulate;

In alms, from start to finish, he gives his all;

A force of admiration, in the lives of the youth;

And through his dedication, to the game, of basketball;

He’s a role model and a leader to follow, in truth;

In a glimmer of light, his efforts are timeless, in the stars, among spacetime;

And through diligence, the game that he plays, was worth the climb.

The Honey Bees

A bear eats honey, for his love of sweets;

Trees of bees, the bear, the honey and the fear, fear in honey bear, the bees of trees;

Taste for honey, eat the bears of trees, trees of bears, that eat honey for taste.

Bees of will, the stings in all; all in stings, the will of bees;
