    Damn... NF always has very subtle references to his older tracks-
    Think about this- Nate is saying that the devil won’t leave him alone and that he will basically send demons to torment Nate. Who do we know that does that in his other songs? That’s right- fear! If you know the story that goes throughout NFS music you will know that he references fear all throughout his music. Towards the end of the journey so far in intro III, he says that he buried fear so it doesn’t get to him anymore, and in this song he mentions that he’s letting it get mad since he’s not letting fear (in this case the devil) get to him. He also references the room that fear is in, etc.
    So basically all of the fear/burdens that he has had throughout his life was sent by the devil. That’s deep.

    [Verse 1: NF]
    Focus on it every single day, I wanna figure out a way
    To get ahead of what I think I know is coming
    It's obvious you got a problem if you always tryna make it seem
    As if you've never been afraid, then why you runnin'?
    I could never look at what I do the way that other people can
    And walk away, I can't be separated from it
    Stickin' out my neck is how I made it where I'm at
    You wanna cut it up but can't, man, they can never take it from me
    (I'm) Outlandish, take chances
    Gotta get it while I can with my damage
    My sanity could leave but if it vanished
    Don't matter to me, I'd still manage
    Gue-Guеss you could say I'm at an advantage
    My vantage point can be quitе lavish
    Got so many cadences
    No way to pick one, which bag is my hand in
    Depends what mood I'm in
    Oh, no, I'm in a mood again
    Lord knows I'm a hooligan
    Losin' it, who can get gruesome with
    You if it comes down to what you can bet?
    I shoot direct, defuse the threat
    And they wonder why the music has a huge effect?
    Could it be 'cause I've been the go-to when it comes to depth?
    'Cause I'm the one that they be callin' when the people get fed up
    And want the music with the visuals, I got a vendetta
    For any part of me that wanna make it hard to get set up
    And take away the happiness, it can be kinda pathetic
    But when I look at everything that's tryna give me a headache
    I gotta be honest, I really been the cause of it, get it
    'Cause I can see a side of me you'll never see, you can tell when
    I'm at the breakin' point, I finally had to sit with the devil
    I went into hell and I asked him what the problem is yellin'
    He tried to get me to live with him, even called me a sinner
    And told me everything about me doesn't feel like a winner
    So why continue when he's tellin' me I might as well give up?
    I took a moment, thought about it, feelin' caught in the middle
    But got offended when he told me I would live in a kennel
    And I can never leave it, even if I made it to Heaven
    He'd find a way to get me back and send a demon to get me
    I'm like "Woah (Woah), hold up, I don't think so"
    Skin and bones meet my ego
    How's he look? He don't eat much
    Let him starve, I don't feed him
    I just beat him, I just leave him in his womb, in a fetal
    Let him cry, let him yell, let him scream, I don't need him
    Lift off when I'm ticked off, my pitfalls I latch onto like a pit dog
    I sit calm with a sick thought of a sitcom of the life I live
    Life I live's more like a sci-fi flick
    I hide in, wanna watch? Dive right in
    My silence doesn't mean I'm dyin'
    Just means I'm careful with the time I spend, so
    [Chorus: NF]
    (Look, look) Look what I, look what I done (Ayy)
    Helpin' 'em people I love (I love)
    My life is not what it was (No)
    I do whatever I must (Woo)
    Count on one hand who I trust (Ayy)
    Count on one hand who I trust (Yeah)
    Count on one hand who I trust (Ayy)
    Count on one hand who I trust (Ayy)
    [Verse 2: Tech N9ne & NF]
    Tech N9na, next king up
    Everyone knowin' that I'm a death bringer
    That lingua vexing ya
    Leavin' a regular rapper resting, bruh (Chyeah)
    This is what, I give it such
    An incredible wicked rush, a vivid gush
    Of poetical livid stuff to rid his gruff
    Said, I better go rip it rough and I lit it up
    The prestige I gather from people lovin' the Tech speed (Whoop)
    Lyrically elect me, Jet Li
    The beat, it got ya bobbin' until your neck bleed (Whoop)
    That is tellin' me "Let's feed"
    On the bitter the bogus the hitter will focus
    Deliver the doses and give a critter the dopest
    Spitter to flow sick and now the quitter corrosive
    A swig of the roguish'll give your liver cirrhosis (Chyeah)
    The boogie monster rappin' with NF in the hoodie
    Want to step into the session and fully conquer
    The weapon to lessen our profession go bully bonkers (Chyeah)
    Left in a wreck, never checkin' nor could he stomp us
    Take his crown
    Thought he was gonna make us run away in a battle with his fakish frown
    Shake his ground
    Like I'm a Mechagodzilla, I'm such a killer when I break it down (Uh)
    These flows are the cheat code for the weak Joes
    That need those Elite bros with the heat, so
    They can eat on the D low
    Off a beast yo' ego, got it vetoed (Chyeah)
    Please close your beak foes, delete scrolls
    Taken from me, thiefs chose to try to decode (Chyeah)
    Reload the beat, so I can reach each soul
    No cease, no finito, release (Go!)
    I am the chosen and everyone is beholdin'
    My energy is golden 'cause dominion is being broken
    From enemies in the open approachin', I'm never jokin'

    What I like about this song, is that NF is publicly Christian and you can see that influence on his music. Even in this song. Meanwhile tech N9ne has had his own issues with religion and faith and has even made songs about it. So to see these two come together is actually impressive to me and I hope beneficial to tech N9ne given his own history with faith. I'm hoping NF can help him on that journey whatever it may be

They will typically show a word...then shock them.with imagery and sounds to induce a certain response...feels like there is a science to his fast flow....kinda how heavy metal can get away with expressing truth due to the distortion of sound...the mind still picks up what it is able to absorb...(I'm not high, btw) tech is a genius.

    Well done mate. Tech always makes for a really hard breakdown and NF didn't let us down either.

    Again. Great breakdown. See you on the next one.
