Just heard his mom passed away. From someone who also grew up with a difficult relationship with his mother and an absent father, this song speaks volumes. Sometimes, it's hard to forgive our parents, but those are the ones we had placed before us. Some of us out there are the product of our parents generational trauma.
I'm glad he got to make amends with his mom. My relationship wasn't the best years back, but I understand why my mom is the way she is, and how rough and harder my grandma was on her. Happy to say that our relationship is good now.
I am a mother (and a present father) who wasn’t always treated the best but my daughter is Starting to come around. I couldn’t listen to even a quarter of this song without balling my eyes out and still am.
@@lazikbro12 honestly I hope so he said this song was I believe the last time he'd write about her but wouldn't answer the same question I asked. I think if it did he should have said yes but he didn't need to say anything more than that
RIP Debbie Mathers 😢 I'm happy Em got to make this song for her before she passed. He got to show his true appreciation, especially after such a crazy rollercoaster of a relationship during the peak of his career. Much love
Even tho we know they didn't talk once he got clean he looked after everything and maybe he has seeing her more his so private there is still alot of sorrow and if he just payed for everything cause I grew up but just always was dressed okay and most important I used to cry when this came out cause my mother was going through a breakdown from losing a brother was hard but I remember thinking she never be the same but she is thank god em will still feel this Rip to Debbie

The grief you feel after losing a parent that you had a complicated relationship with is different than other grief.

This song perfectly expressed some of the complicated feelings I have about my mom, it was released after she was gone. I've often wondered what this loss will bring for Marshall.

I hope he has strong support during this time and is gentle with himself.
My oldest son told me this song reminded him of us about 10 years ago now. Crushed me. Woke me up. I moved back, never moving away again. I'm a proud Grandma of 3 beautiful grandkids and my son is clean. Rest easy Debbie. You raised a good man.

I love that you can print or write down his lyrics and read it out loud as if it were just a regular essay/ letter/ poem. Another good example is walk on water..

I was on the same situation for a lot of his songs, like When I'm gone
You don't grow up with parents like this and sort it out. You can reach a point of seeing them for who they are and accepting that person did the best they could with what they had but it doesn't get sorted out or resolved. With every passing day, with every new life event, there is more trauma added and pain to sort through later. The things to forgive them and yourself for only stops amassing after their death. I understand your sentiment, it just isn't the reality of how these things work.
I always loved this song when I bought the album in 2013. I was too young to understand the story. But now I can and Marshall was right, it was a tangled web they had. Just relieving he got to apologize to his Mom for everything.
@@amandariley1160 Yes its normal that his music has changes - as he has changed himself. Yes stan is one of the best, those two others I didnt listen. I listened to rap before in the past so not familiar with anything from Eminem past Recovery (2010)....but when I stumble upon some song like this one, and when compared to those old songs - the difference is huge...so maybe not bad, I just dont like it.
I cry every time i hear this song. This is the first time I've watched the video and the part where Em pulls up and hugs her just broke me. My heart goes out to him and Nate. I can only imagine the mixed emotions they're feeling after her passing.
I had a drugy mom who would feed me xanax and i have a beautiful daughter and baby mama problem's me md Eminem have a lot in common why i Relate to his music got addiction to drugs gor clean for my daughter and learning to forgive my mother also
RIP Debbie Mathers. Thank you for birthing a legend that blessed humanity with his creative arts. Thank you Em for demonstrating love in its purest form. You conquered hate! You conquered bitterness. You’re a champion and your life is a model to all those struggling to overcome the hate of their childhood inflicted by loved ones.
His lyricism is incredibly transparent. There's almost no art, no metaphor, no poetry here. It may be heartbreaking and real, but this is not music. This is as straightforward as a facebook post.
You are not a fan that is why you don't understand this side of Em.. this is Marshall here spitting about his life.. if you want metaphor and poetry listen to Eminem the rapper and if you want more than that listen to shady for internal rhymes, bars, wordplay, homophone triple entendre, speed, all the fucking elements that you want in a rap.
My brother killed himself when I was little and my mom became an alcoholic. She couldn't cope. I used to get so mad at her and listened to Cleaning Out My Closet on repeat to piss her off. I grew up, I realized what she went through was one of the hardest things a mother could endure and I found myself appreciating her in a new way. She died from the alcoholism, I had to take her off of life support. I kissed her forehead as she died in my arms and all I could hear was this song in my head. I lost my dad last year, he got murdered. I found myself wanting my mama and looking for her strength. She wasn't here but I found that strength because of the love she gave me when she was here. I love you mama. Rest in peace💕
So I've looked to someones forehead for 7 minutes. = go viral today with *A U T H E N T I C H I T S* *DOT* *COM* get mad hits Get Real *Instagram* Followers *Twitter* Followers *Facebook* *Likes* *SoundCloud* Plays...!!?
I’ve always loved how he criticizes his younger self on being blinded on how much he really does love his mom and how much she means to him.. it’s a blessing he snapped back to reality before she was gone and it was too late
you do realise 99% of the problems were cause HE caused them?....all she ever did was speak the truth, in every interview, ever....but he milked the drama for the sake of $$$$$$. So that fanboys like you would scream ''fuck you debbie! now this looks like...'' etc.... If he really cared, he'd giver her every penny he made off defaming her.
“That’s when I realized you were sick and it wasn’t fixable”.... to anyone with parents who struggle with addiction or mental health; find the answer in compassion and understanding. I’m sorry for all you have or will face.
Tried to but it has gone nowhere....it's the same cycle that won't stop...unfortunately some people are just better off not being involved regardless of blood relation
Now with the recent news, this song is even more heartbreaking, and even more of a masterpiece. Definitely in my top 3 Eminem songs. Fly high Debbie Mathers, thank you for everything 🕊️
Even the fact that this was shot from the perspective of his mother shows his intentions even before hearing the lyrics fully. I’m proud of him for this. It’s easier to be mad and find more reasons to be than to forgive and be open to change. It goes both ways though. Both people need to be willing. This song will always be one of my top favorite songs because of how much I relate to it. I listen to cleaning out my closet and this one in order and it’s actually helped a ton. As someone whose not good with expressing their emotions through words and just analyzes them instead, I feel heard and like my emotions are being brought to light. Thank you, Marshall for all you’ve done and continue to do. Forever GOAT.
How is this sung from eminems perspective by himself and somehow his mother's point of view? Guess she is broke and using him again like mother Mary did to jesus
RIP. Debbie Mathers we all appreciate you bringing this amazing, talented, loving person to this world and caring for him and being a true mother to your kids
@@lucas8561 it's not like an easy thing, the problem is he already had a fucked up life and his mother was making it worth on him like why didn't she just give him some support some love but she added to the cruelty that he was facing throughout his story growing up without a father figure.
You are a legend ❤ Your mom needs more love after all she is your mom. I'm sure she regretted this decision 1min after she left. Always show love to her.
This song just makes me love eminem even more. It takes a lot to forgive (considering everything he's expressed on records before regarding his mom) and I just love that he's honest with himself and his fans. Always was.
This song is really beautiful tbh. In this song he's apologizing to his mom for "cleaning out my closet" but you have to understand his mom had a drug problem and pushed all of her anger on her young son. When he wrote that song he was filled with rage. Now in her later years he knows what kind of mother she was but he realized what she was going through a single mom with a drug addiction. He feels guilty for making that song but I understand why he did it. He's so sad to see his mom finally wearing away. He does love her and this song is so nice.
My mother was alcoholic, and also addicted to medication, when I was young like 18 me and my mother would argue and fight a lot, we would physically fight, I had a huge hate for her, she was the person I hated the most in this world. Today I'm 34, I don't hate her anymore, I just feel sad for everything that happened, I feel sad for her sometimes, I totally understand Eminem in this song and in cleaning out my closet, and Jade is right too
If someone told me 17 years ago that he's gonna make this song, I would told them no fcking way, never gonna happened! It's amazing to see how much this man has grown and matured, after everything he's been through... And I feel lucky and blessed for being able witnessing this whole journey... It was such a great experience! ❤️
Right in the feels. Every damn time I listen to this. And I love it. I may need to go back and listen to every other song he’s ever wrote but this just may be his best lyrics ever.
Fatherless boys tend to blame their loneliness and depression on their mothers instead of blaming the real enemy, its sad man, I wish it wasn't like that.
RIP Deb, You made a living legend, and you are apart of his legacy a huge part, we all love you both, hope you good em i know you must be going through it. keep your head and health up!❤ that goes for everyone i love yall and we should all appreciate the family we have and show all the love we can to them and even strangers it doesnt cost anything to be kind and love one another. I hope you all have an amazing prosperous life! Tell Your Mom's, Dad's, Siblings, you love them!
It takes a real man to apologize to his mom and try to make peace after everything they have been through. That's another reason why I respect Eminem so much.
No you don’t. I was on OG fan and I even attain some of my upbringing towards him as I didn’t have a father in my life and I used people like Eminem to fill that gaping hole (pause). But I hate this gate keeping mentality of “you had to be there or you’re not a real fan”. I’m sure there are many fans who were born after the year 2000 who love his old work and can understand the importance of this track. If certain things speak to you on a deep level, we don’t have to discredit others’ understanding. Just my 2c. Peace bro ✌️
I'm a grown man but no joke, this song makes me cry every single time I listen to it. It makes me think of my own family and the strained relationships I have with some of them; it's painful to even think about and I feel an immense guilt most of the time, yet I have no idea what to do.
I think you should tell them how you feel. I think Eminem made this song to tell his mom how he felt. There’s something very relieving about talking about those painful memories.
There is something special about this song, when you listen it when you’re a little kid you dont feel the lyrics as good, but as you get older you understand..
I was 15 when I discovered this song, my dad was a dj so thanks to him I Learn from a young age about Eminem, thankfully I have a good relationship with my mom and this song just makes me happy and sad, it’s been a long time since I’ve herd it
THIS IS WHY... Em is a legend. RAW, PURE, emotion that the world can relate to. IT'LL NEVER GROW OLD. Your music will last forever, as long as humans don't become numb to feeling LOVE, HATE, HAPPINESS, SADNESS, JOY, PAIN, AFRAID, and ASHAMED. HIS MUSIC CAPTURES IT ALL. HE'S A BLESSING TO THE WORLD 💯
Windows Vista lol it’s HIS mother. You don’t get to decide who he should and shouldn’t forgive. Geez someone’s bitter over someone they don’t even know 🙄
RIP Deb, Em so so sorry for your loss. This song along with Cleaning out my Closet was the story of my mom and I. My mom took her life by OD 10 yrs ago. I feel your pain and confusion, your a good man, brother and father and I tip my hat to you!!
The fact that I didn’t grow up in a broken home(I’m thankful for this & im so sorry to anyone who has grown up in broken homes), and STILL feel I love this song & can relate, you know the artist is doing their job.
Tbh I feel like there are three levels of homes a broken home a family that loves u and acts like it and a family that isn’t broken but is consistently bullying you being rude etc
@@chavalomiguel5587 nooo I live in Europe and every house around me are council houses and they are run down like mine. I am not saying this for sympathy just letting you know that some parts of Europe are very poor
Em gave the hardest and greatest apology even when he was justified in is anger and when nobody expected or imagined. This song came from a place of strength developed by self forgiveness and love. Thank you Marshal RIP Debbie Mathers🙏🏾
I grew up on Eminem. I was a young, white kid in the ghetto, raised by a single mom, and had a similar upbringing. I used to relate so much to his songs and feel like he was speaking for me, so to hear this and see that no matter how rough I thought it was, there's always hope for a loving family, it just hits too hard.. you gotta really understand the Marshall Mathers story to realize just how significant this song is. I'm really happy he made this for not only himself and his mother, but for all those who had strained relationships with their parents growing up.
I deeply relate to Eminem because I came from a broken home, I resented my mom for the longest and it wasn’t until I was an adult that I realized how sick my mom was, this song makes me cry because I feel the same as Eminem, I had the same feelings he had when he made “Cleanin out my closet” because it reflected how I felt at the time about my mom, what just made me become a sobbing mess is when he says “And I'm way too old to cry, the shit is painful though But, Ma, I forgive you, so does Nathan, yo All you did, all you said, you did your best to raise us both Foster care, that cross you bear, few may be as heavy as yours But I love you, Debbie Mathers” And “And I'm mad I didn't get the chance to, Thank you for being my mom and dad” I’ve never related to lyrics as much as these. I regret the horrible things I’ve said to her and learned to forgive despite the pain that was caused, now I’m loving her from afar, we are not close now in anyway but every time she acts out I just remember that she’s sick and can’t control her own actions like a normal person can
Im so sorry for what happened to you, I also have a broken family, the sad part for me is that is just far from over and relating to “kill you” “my mom” “ cleaning out my closet” “remember me” and so much more had me sad for all my childhood, but whenever she tries to hurt me with her words or actions I just remember she’s ill and that me responding will not fix that
I completely understand you. My childhood was garbage and I was wonder everyday why I was born in family like that. My family is toxic toward me and i am nothing but a black sheep for them. And it makes me sick everytime when I hear these words such as "i love you" or "you are everything for us" or "you are nothing but a delusional bully". I was getting sick of this. I felt broken after my mom passed away and my ex girlfriend ditched me away. I didn't even want to celebrate holidays but afterwards I went because after all i am part of that garbage family being raised by drinkers, gossipers and father which i dislike his hypocrisy because he did something good. I am almost 20 studying hard in the university of my dreams and fighting for a happy and productive life.
I don't know how you can forgive. I have a younger sibling. The things she does to her hurts more then what she does to me. I don't want to be a victim it is what it is and what happened happened but how does forgiving help when you can't get away yet?
I feel the same way. My dad recently just passed and my mom left us about 8 years ago and I've been with him the whole time, 17 now and it's an early time to lose one like that but I'm still here, me and him always used to listen to Eminem all the time, this one especially. The point being is that my mother is in a abusive relationship where she was brainwashed from an abusive peice of shit boyfriend, first hand have experienced that. Made her cut me out of my life and she recently contacted me and I went off on her, now regretting it because I really do want to mend things with her I think
I hear this more then I want too. My mum passed away in 2017. We had a rocky relationship and she became my best friend when we were both forced to be still. I was pregnant and she was battling with cancer. I had my baby on my own and 4 weeks later my best friend passed away. I have so many regrets, please if any of you can please try and mend your relationships because when it's taken away its the most heartbreaking thing you can ever imagine. Peace and love to all. X
This song seared me to the soul when it first came out. No song has ever been more relatable in my entire life. My little brother was taken away by the state too and our mom was also mentally sick and I am just now, at 28, starting to see things differently and starting to learn to forgive. This song will live rent free in my soul for the rest of my life.
Forgiving someone who hurt you, with or without them knowing this, forgiving will humble you and it's so much better than carrying hate and discontent. Life is challenging for everyone. I'm happy for your growth in this matter. When I heard this song the first time, my little girl played it.She said "Mom have you heard this song by Eminem? Listen to it " We were 3 deep standing in the dining room cleaning up after eating and the girls put that sing on and alot like all of the others felt my eyes started welling up with tears.bI was trying my best to hold back, that's how I am, don't cry ever unless you're alone. I stopped moving so did the girls like time stood still , listened I the whole song. This is kinda where the story began. Idk how to explain it, I'm happy Eminem finally found peace from his experience. God bless you all and may you broken pieces start mending you ♥️😘🖤🖤@brandy top fan Eminem
flufferella conspiracy oh sweet salty Christ that song freaked me out the first time I listened to it and it seems as if he has clamed down a lot since those days as that song did come out in 1999
Being a fan of Eminem since I was in elementary school, I’ve laughed at and with his songs, found inspiration from them and even found it developing my passion for music. But he also opened me to understanding music is art, and art is an expression. But this song reminded me expressions and passions can change, just like humans. And this song has shown that so well that I have to hold back a few tears almost every time I listen to it. I think I can honestly say this is my all time favorite Eminem song. May even have trouble changing that choice no matter what he puts out after this.
Eminem is growing up along with his fans. When I was younger Cleaning Out my closet hit so close to home, so many things his mother did to him, mine did to me and I had so much anger towards her...but I have long since forgiven her, I understand mothers try their best and sometimes, because of their own problems, they get it oh so wrong... and this song says it beautifully. It is like we are going on the same journey through life and I can relate to each stage.
Monique Smith only true fans over 27 who remembers when that song came out can understand impact this song has about his mom how he hated her and how he's learned to forgive her as he grew older and now since he's walked in her footsteps with addiction he understands takes a man to acknowledge that Eminem is one of the greatest rappers alive
"SING FOR THE MOMENT" and "CLEANING OUT MY CLOSET" those were the ones. the ones the parents hated... Today they understand and know why it was always playing.
When you are the same age as Em, and follow his career as I have, and loved each and every level of Eminem, this song makes you truly realize how amazing he is. It makes you realize that as we grow older, we see what is truly most important in this life. Kudos Em. This song is pure gold.
You can clearly hear the emotion Eminem had when he sang this song. The transition from being an angsty adolescent, to a parent himself. I just like how in the end, despite everything, he still loves his mother. Such a beautiful song.
I always wanted more but I always had enough . I used to be mad at my mother because what we didn't have but never grateful what we I did have . never again will I not respect my mothers sacrifice. Yesterday we were grinning ma now we winning !
Rest in Peace Debbie. You gave birth to an outstanding man.
And abused him when as a child.

The grief you feel after losing a parent that you had a complicated relationship with is different than other grief. The loss of who they were, who you hoped they'd be, who you needed them to be, who they'll never be. This song perfectly expressed some of the complicated feelings I have about my mom, it was released after she was gone.
I've often wondered what this loss will bring for Marshall. There will be battles fought between him and the other personas he carries in his head as he tries to process the anger, the pain, the guilt, the sadness, and even the relief that comes as you no longer wait for this phone call. I hope he has strong support during this time and is gentle with himself.

Glad to know that he wrote this ten years ago and helped her once she was diagnosed. Rest in peace Debbie.
So much pain and love in one song. Beautiful song and great attitude, Eminem. Is never too late to forgive and be forgiven.
i didn't know you liked Em, really like your videos tho
Carl johnson HeilRJ03 is your idol?
Claude Harris Sure,EMIN3M too. Be answered by any of them could make me to fly.
sorry claude harris i was talking about heil and eminem, not you.
da hell did that come from?, ofcourse i knew that but i was just surprised that a youtuber is your idol
His storytelling is just on another level
Also Nas :)
I love that you can print or write down his lyrics and read it out loud as if it were just a regular essay/ letter/ poem. Another good example is walk on water..
That is why i will always love and respect Em. His songs connect with me and I can relate to his struggles, he motivates me to become a better man👌

I was on the same situation for a lot of his songs, like When I'm gone
His ability to speak his emotions through his lyrics has always been something that i will admire

That's Talent Right There

And how do you know she never put a like on it after years later nobody reallt knows when they got right@4567tiki
You don't grow up with parents like this and sort it out. You can reach a point of seeing them for who they are and accepting that person did the best they could with what they had but it doesn't get sorted out or resolved. With every passing day, with every new life event, there is more trauma added and pain to sort through later. The things to forgive them and yourself for only stops amassing after their death. I understand your sentiment, it just isn't the reality of how these things work.

One of Eminem's absolute best songs he's ever written, sheer beauty.
lol compaed to his old stuff this is sooo bad, its like its not even eminem
@@MrBirkic The rap community isn't used to rappers living long. He grew up.
Yep. Stan, Headlights, and Walk on Water are my faves. I love River, too.
@@amandariley1160 Yes its normal that his music has changes - as he has changed himself. Yes stan is one of the best, those two others I didnt listen.
I listened to rap before in the past so not familiar with anything from Eminem past Recovery (2010)....but when I stumble upon some song like this one, and when compared to those old songs - the difference is huge...so maybe not bad, I just dont like it.
I’d put this at #2, after arose. Arose is literally sad as hell 😢
Rip to Eminem, mom, Debbie. Thank you for bringing a legend into the world.
eminem didn’t die only debbie which is the mother
He means Eminem’s mom debbie
@meteoedits1130 oh okay
I cry every time i hear this song. This is the first time I've watched the video and the part where Em pulls up and hugs her just broke me.
My heart goes out to him and Nate. I can only imagine the mixed emotions they're feeling after her passing.
This song deserves atleast a Grammy nomination.. One of the most underrated song in the history
It deserves 5 grammies this song made me forgive mine.

RIP Debbie Mathers.
Thank you for birthing a legend that blessed humanity with his creative arts.
Thank you Em for demonstrating love in its purest form.
You conquered hate!
You conquered bitterness.
You’re a champion and your life is a model to all those struggling to overcome the hate of their childhood inflicted by loved ones.
Try and imagine seeing Em in the studio recording this track. Guaranteed to make you cry. We love you Marshall!!

R.I.P. Debbie Mathers ❤ Eminem you're a true legend! This song hits deep in my heart! Much love to you and your family 🕊🕊🕊
This song hits real hard. Eminem's ability to tell stories through his lyrics is amazing.
His lyricism is incredibly transparent. There's almost no art, no metaphor, no poetry here. It may be heartbreaking and real, but this is not music. This is as straightforward as a facebook post.
@@slothrop4751huh?
@@slothrop4751 so true but in a good way
@@slothrop4751mumble rap fan?
You are not a fan that is why you don't understand this side of Em.. this is Marshall here spitting about his life.. if you want metaphor and poetry listen to Eminem the rapper and if you want more than that listen to shady for internal rhymes, bars, wordplay, homophone triple entendre, speed, all the fucking elements that you want in a rap.
My brother killed himself when I was little and my mom became an alcoholic. She couldn't cope. I used to get so mad at her and listened to Cleaning Out My Closet on repeat to piss her off. I grew up, I realized what she went through was one of the hardest things a mother could endure and I found myself appreciating her in a new way. She died from the alcoholism, I had to take her off of life support. I kissed her forehead as she died in my arms and all I could hear was this song in my head. I lost my dad last year, he got murdered. I found myself wanting my mama and looking for her strength. She wasn't here but I found that strength because of the love she gave me when she was here. I love you mama. Rest in peace💕
i'm really sorry 😥
@@lutfidandy I appreciate that. No need to be sorry though. My family may be dead but I'm lucky to have known them at all

63 years old. It's one of the best songs. So real. Thank you.
I know right
his mom passed away.
I’ve always loved how he criticizes his younger self on being blinded on how much he really does love his mom and how much she means to him.. it’s a blessing he snapped back to reality before she was gone and it was too late
You learn with age I guess
Oh, there goes gravity
@@redthewifeyhunter4034 You just realize that life is too short to carry all the hate.
you do realise 99% of the problems were cause HE caused them?....all she ever did was speak the truth, in every interview, ever....but he milked the drama for the sake of $$$$$$. So that fanboys like you would scream ''fuck you debbie! now this looks like...'' etc....
If he really cared, he'd giver her every penny he made off defaming her.
@@NoNoNoNopeNopeNopeNo😂 your ignorancy is showing.

Defooooo!
Mr Nobody when?
Jimmys Dallas he announced it early this year but didn't confirm any date.
Angie Nunez 😀😀😀👍🏻👍🏻😄😄
Even the fact that this was shot from the perspective of his mother shows his intentions even before hearing the lyrics fully. I’m proud of him for this. It’s easier to be mad and find more reasons to be than to forgive and be open to change. It goes both ways though. Both people need to be willing. This song will always be one of my top favorite songs because of how much I relate to it. I listen to cleaning out my closet and this one in order and it’s actually helped a ton. As someone whose not good with expressing their emotions through words and just analyzes them instead, I feel heard and like my emotions are being brought to light. Thank you, Marshall for all you’ve done and continue to do. Forever GOAT.
This is 💯 so true & I feel the same! Wishing continued blessings for you 🙏❤️🙏
How is this sung from eminems perspective by himself and somehow his mother's point of view? Guess she is broke and using him again like mother Mary did to jesus
RIP. Debbie Mathers we all appreciate you bringing this amazing, talented, loving person to this world and caring for him and being a true mother to your kids
No joke this song helped me forgive my mum for running off when I was a kid. Shut her off completely for years then forgave her.
😔
This song is the perfect example of how much we can grow and forgive/forget past fights and bad stuff
@@lucas8561 it's not like an easy thing, the problem is he already had a fucked up life and his mother was making it worth on him like why didn't she just give him some support some love but she added to the cruelty that he was facing throughout his story growing up without a father figure.
You are a legend ❤
Your mom needs more love after all she is your mom.
I'm sure she regretted this decision 1min after she left. Always show love to her.

Nate is the perfect singer for this, his voice is so unique. Absolute perfect compliment for Em's rap
And he was great with Pink as well
There is not many singer named Nate that can fit this song narrative. It's very fortunate the Nate Ruess get to be the one

Not to mention Eminem’s little brother’s name is Nate as well.
@@pompeyparker6369 Well didnt know that , didnt do a fact check right now but if its the case its either by chance or another genius decision

H
This was happening years ago what
@@BeeVyr shhhh, let her enjoy it
Fr me too
Kenia Ortiz this song came out 6 years ago. Eminem won’t make anymore emotional songs tbh cuz of how badly Revival went
This song is really beautiful tbh. In this song he's apologizing to his mom for "cleaning out my closet" but you have to understand his mom had a drug problem and pushed all of her anger on her young son. When he wrote that song he was filled with rage. Now in her later years he knows what kind of mother she was but he realized what she was going through a single mom with a drug addiction. He feels guilty for making that song but I understand why he did it. He's so sad to see his mom finally wearing away. He does love her and this song is so nice.
Windows Vista, don’t hate the person. Hate the disease. The disease steals them from you. But worse, it sabotages them.
My mother was alcoholic, and also addicted to medication, when I was young like 18 me and my mother would argue and fight a lot, we would physically fight, I had a huge hate for her, she was the person I hated the most in this world.
Today I'm 34, I don't hate her anymore, I just feel sad for everything that happened, I feel sad for her sometimes, I totally understand Eminem in this song and in cleaning out my closet, and Jade is right too
If someone told me 17 years ago that he's gonna make this song, I would told them no fcking way, never gonna happened!
It's amazing to see how much this man has grown and matured, after everything he's been through...
And I feel lucky and blessed for being able witnessing this whole journey... It was such a great experience! ❤️
Well said 👏
Right in the feels. Every damn time I listen to this. And I love it. I may need to go back and listen to every other song he’s ever wrote but this just may be his best lyrics ever.
But watch him top this too lol. ♥️♥️
Fatherless boys tend to blame their loneliness and depression on their mothers instead of blaming the real enemy, its sad man, I wish it wasn't like that.
@@ChristusRex081 prolly true but he wasn't saying she never did anything wrong. All he was saying is that she did her best😂

I hope you all have an amazing prosperous life! Tell Your Mom's, Dad's, Siblings, you love them!
It takes a real man to apologize to his mom and try to make peace after everything they have been through. That's another reason why I respect Eminem so much.
Exactly . We expect too Much from people
Eminem Please Reply To Us
You have to be an old school Em fan to understand the sheer magnitude of this track. Good on you Em for this.
No you don’t. I was on OG fan and I even attain some of my upbringing towards him as I didn’t have a father in my life and I used people like Eminem to fill that gaping hole (pause).
But I hate this gate keeping mentality of “you had to be there or you’re not a real fan”. I’m sure there are many fans who were born after the year 2000 who love his old work and can understand the importance of this track.
If certain things speak to you on a deep level, we don’t have to discredit others’ understanding.

I'm a grown man but no joke, this song makes me cry every single time I listen to it. It makes me think of my own family and the strained relationships I have with some of them; it's painful to even think about and I feel an immense guilt most of the time, yet I have no idea what to do.
I think you should tell them how you feel. I think Eminem made this song to tell his mom how he felt. There’s something very relieving about talking about those painful memories.
Ditto ❤️
I feel you brother. My family and my childhood are garbage.
just talk to them before it's too late. it's god damn hard to live your life without saying the word you should've.
You should give em a call and just ask them how their day is and let them know you love them

It will hit more.

There is something special about this song, when you listen it when you’re a little kid you dont feel the lyrics as good, but as you get older you understand..
TRUE 💯
Fact 💯
The reason why I came back to listening this song❤
This is how life is. Age and experience bring clarity and a deeper perception of the complexities of life.
I was 15 when I discovered this song, my dad was a dj so thanks to him I Learn from a young age about Eminem, thankfully I have a good relationship with my mom and this song just makes me happy and sad, it’s been a long time since I’ve herd it
I can't stop crying as I listen to the lyrics. No one can beat EMINEM! Nobody can!
Marshall Mathers can
❤️🔥❤️
I also get misty-eyes while listening heart touching song
i can beat him in a fist fight🤷🏾♂️
Only 2pac or biggie
A man that can admit when he has taken something too far, no matter what has happened to him, takes guts and isn’t for everyone much respect
THIS IS WHY... Em is a legend. RAW, PURE, emotion that the world can relate to. IT'LL NEVER GROW OLD. Your music will last forever, as long as humans don't become numb to feeling LOVE, HATE, HAPPINESS, SADNESS, JOY, PAIN, AFRAID, and ASHAMED. HIS MUSIC CAPTURES IT ALL. HE'S A BLESSING TO THE WORLD 💯
Windows Vista lol it’s HIS mother. You don’t get to decide who he should and shouldn’t forgive. Geez someone’s bitter over someone they don’t even know 🙄
If you enjoy emotional songs, I’d suggest listening to NF. He’s amazing
A modern day Shakespeare
RIP Deb, Em so so sorry for your loss. This song along with Cleaning out my Closet was the story of my mom and I. My mom took her life by OD 10 yrs ago. I feel your pain and confusion, your a good man, brother and father and I tip my hat to you!!

R.I.P. Debbie, you gave an outstanding man and singer.
I grew up on Eminem. I was a young, white kid in the ghetto, raised by a single mom, and had a similar upbringing. I used to relate so much to his songs and feel like he was speaking for me, so to hear this and see that no matter how rough I thought it was, there's always hope for a loving family, it just hits too hard.. you gotta really understand the Marshall Mathers story to realize just how significant this song is. I'm really happy he made this for not only himself and his mother, but for all those who had strained relationships with their parents growing up.
Literally me ASF
The use tu yyiyy😊
Johnald - What you wrote is truly so beautiful! Wishing continued blessings for you always 🙏 ❤️ This song makes me cry. Every. SINGLE. time. 😭
bro idk i see no hope in that instead of creating one
I fully agree and understand from south Africa I felt his pain when I was a child but thank you Eminem for helping me through my life
I deeply relate to Eminem because I came from a broken home, I resented my mom for the longest and it wasn’t until I was an adult that I realized how sick my mom was, this song makes me cry because I feel the same as Eminem, I had the same feelings he had when he made “Cleanin out my closet” because it reflected how I felt at the time about my mom, what just made me become a sobbing mess is when he says
“And I'm way too old to cry, the shit is painful though
But, Ma, I forgive you, so does Nathan, yo
All you did, all you said, you did your best to raise us both
Foster care, that cross you bear, few may be as heavy as yours
But I love you, Debbie Mathers”
And
“And I'm mad I didn't get the chance to,
Thank you for being my mom and dad”
I’ve never related to lyrics as much as these.
I regret the horrible things I’ve said to her and learned to forgive despite the pain that was caused, now I’m loving her from afar, we are not close now in anyway but every time she acts out I just remember that she’s sick and can’t control her own actions like a normal person can
Im so sorry for what happened to you, I also have a broken family, the sad part for me is that is just far from over and relating to “kill you” “my mom” “ cleaning out my closet” “remember me” and so much more had me sad for all my childhood, but whenever she tries to hurt me with her words or actions I just remember she’s ill and that me responding will not fix that
I completely understand you. My childhood was garbage and I was wonder everyday why I was born in family like that. My family is toxic toward me and i am nothing but a black sheep for them. And it makes me sick everytime when I hear these words such as "i love you" or "you are everything for us" or "you are nothing but a delusional bully". I was getting sick of this. I felt broken after my mom passed away and my ex girlfriend ditched me away. I didn't even want to celebrate holidays but afterwards I went because after all i am part of that garbage family being raised by drinkers, gossipers and father which i dislike his hypocrisy because he did something good. I am almost 20 studying hard in the university of my dreams and fighting for a happy and productive life.
I don't know how you can forgive. I have a younger sibling. The things she does to her hurts more then what she does to me. I don't want to be a victim it is what it is and what happened happened but how does forgiving help when you can't get away yet?
I feel the same way. My dad recently just passed and my mom left us about 8 years ago and I've been with him the whole time, 17 now and it's an early time to lose one like that but I'm still here, me and him always used to listen to Eminem all the time, this one especially. The point being is that my mother is in a abusive relationship where she was brainwashed from an abusive peice of shit boyfriend, first hand have experienced that. Made her cut me out of my life and she recently contacted me and I went off on her, now regretting it because I really do want to mend things with her I think
I hear this more then I want too. My mum passed away in 2017. We had a rocky relationship and she became my best friend when we were both forced to be still. I was pregnant and she was battling with cancer. I had my baby on my own and 4 weeks later my best friend passed away. I have so many regrets, please if any of you can please try and mend your relationships because when it's taken away its the most heartbreaking thing you can ever imagine. Peace and love to all. X
This song seared me to the soul when it first came out. No song has ever been more relatable in my entire life. My little brother was taken away by the state too and our mom was also mentally sick and I am just now, at 28, starting to see things differently and starting to learn to forgive. This song will live rent free in my soul for the rest of my life.
I hope life is kinder to you from here on.
Forgiving someone who hurt you, with or without them knowing this, forgiving will humble you and it's so much better than carrying hate and discontent. Life is challenging for everyone. I'm happy for your growth in this matter. When I heard this song the first time, my little girl played it.She said "Mom have you heard this song by Eminem? Listen to it " We were 3 deep standing in the dining room cleaning up after eating and the girls put that sing on and alot like all of the others felt my eyes started welling up with tears.bI was trying my best to hold back, that's how I am, don't cry ever unless you're alone. I stopped moving so did the girls like time stood still , listened I the whole song. This is kinda where the story began. Idk how to explain it, I'm happy Eminem finally found peace from his experience. God bless you all and may you broken pieces start mending you ♥️😘🖤🖤@brandy top fan Eminem
true
C'mon now
I'm so sorry Bro
Thank you Debbie. Without you being you we don't get Eminem.

He's so fuckin talented! This song always brings me to tears.
right?
Don't forget Nate Ruess
Gabrielle Padilla he is really talented but don't forget all the work he had to do and all the things he went through
Being a fan of Eminem since I was in elementary school, I’ve laughed at and with his songs, found inspiration from them and even found it developing my passion for music. But he also opened me to understanding music is art, and art is an expression. But this song reminded me expressions and passions can change, just like humans. And this song has shown that so well that I have to hold back a few tears almost every time I listen to it. I think I can honestly say this is my all time favorite Eminem song. May even have trouble changing that choice no matter what he puts out after this.
You write like you rapping yo 😂
Eminem is growing up along with his fans. When I was younger Cleaning Out my closet hit so close to home, so many things his mother did to him, mine did to me and I had so much anger towards her...but I have long since forgiven her, I understand mothers try their best and sometimes, because of their own problems, they get it oh so wrong... and this song says it beautifully. It is like we are going on the same journey through life and I can relate to each stage.
Monique Smith hii
cristian Rodriguez hi
How ar you ?😊
Monique Smith only true fans over 27 who remembers when that song came out can understand impact this song has about his mom how he hated her and how he's learned to forgive her as he grew older and now since he's walked in her footsteps with addiction he understands takes a man to acknowledge that Eminem is one of the greatest rappers alive
"SING FOR THE MOMENT" and "CLEANING OUT MY CLOSET" those were the ones. the ones the parents hated... Today they understand and know why it was always playing.
rip eminems mom u raised our childhoods songs bye i hope eminem sees u in heaven
I watched this man grow up over the years and I watched my self grow up alongside him .. Thank you Em you don't know how much you helped me to grow
Amem
When you are the same age as Em, and follow his career as I have, and loved each and every level of Eminem, this song makes you truly realize how amazing he is. It makes you realize that as we grow older, we see what is truly most important in this life. Kudos Em. This song is pure gold.
Yes I loved him before but much more respect now
Facts
Yes sir...80s babies unite...last great generation
You can clearly hear the emotion Eminem had when he sang this song.
The transition from being an angsty adolescent, to a parent himself.
I just like how in the end, despite everything, he still loves his mother.
Such a beautiful song.
He was a parent the whole time.
I hope he spends more time with his mother now.
she didnt do a lot of the stuff he said she did.
I feel you Em..We realized the bad things we said to them but its in the time when theyre gone...thank you for this song,
This song still makes me cry every single time.
I almost never cry but this gave me a few tears i feel sad that i couldnt be a better son cause my mom deserves that
Same
SAME. I literally cannot get through a full run without crying
I always wanted more but I always had enough . I used to be mad at my mother because what we didn't have but never grateful what we I did have . never again will I not respect my mothers sacrifice. Yesterday we were grinning ma now we winning !
