    Honestly this guy is an angel. He raps about his addiction to nicotine, but in a way that allows people to relate it to their own addictions, but also relationships.

    Nikki: Nicotine (Refers to as the girl he loves but knows isn't good for him)
    Mary: Marijuana (Refers to as a girl he was with when he didn't know any better)
    Jack: Jack Daniels (Refers to as the friend that he went to but wasn't there when he needed him, "Where you been jack?")
    Logic's lyrics are so deep. The whole album is amazing.

    For Logic, this was about cigarettes and his addiction but he wrote the song in such a way that we can relate it to our own addictions, our own toxic relationships, even if for us, it really is another person or something completely different, and I honestly love how he's made music out of his own life but made it for other people.

      Don’t hate on any of the albums, his fire is still there, but it’s small. But like fire, some fuel and some heat, add some amazing bars. You got yourself him back. He’s gone through a lot of things. It’s no wonder supermarket and coadm weren’t such big hits as UP, TITS, and BT.

    • @death_sl4yer
      @death_sl4yer 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Joshua Pabilonia look, I don’t want to get into an argument, but who cares if he’s trying it to top off any other good rappers. Sure the negativity from his first two albums and uses it in the next. But it’s still music, still has a good flow, it’s a different style, but maybe later on he’ll go back into his old flow and style. It’s only a matter of time. There’s no time to judge or anything like that. If we ever meet again in the next album, who knows, maybe it’ll be like coadm or it can this album all I’ve again.

    It hurts listening to this song even though I always play it. Almost all my life I've been sad and or depressed, and the past three years I've been depressed. I've had three therapists now and still nothing has changed. I've thought about ending it and everything so many times but when I heard this song, it hit me. I was starting to smoke cigarettes when this album came out, and for a while, I'd play this song every time I smoked. Recently last month in February, I went to go see Logic in Sacramento, bought the V.I.P and everything. I remember he gave me a hug because after the signing and picture because I told him that he saved my life, and he did. As I Am has helped me and a lot of his other tracks. When he preformed this live at that show I broke into tears, it's amazing how music can affect someone. I can sort of relate to this song, talking about Mary and Nikki, the craving, the taste, seeing her everywhere, Nikki was my stress reliever. I haven't smoked cigarettes since November of last year and doing "well." I thank Logic, VMG, and Hi-Rez for doing what they do, they saved my life.

    Nicotine is a neurotoxin. In tobacco, it is the active substance that makes you addicted. Nicotine gets into the brain within seven seconds of smoking. Due to its chemical structure, nicotine acts as a natural messenger in the nerve cells of the brain and can create relaxation, happiness and excitement. This quickly achieved kick causes a short sense of reward. When the added nicotine level drops again, the reward system in the brain calls again for the drug. From these directly experienced positive effects is the high addiction of nicotine. The nicotine in tobacco produces dependence in around 80% of smokers. The addictive potential is comparable to that of heroin.

    Believe it or not my first time listening was during one of the happiest moments of my life: I’ve spent a semester abroad in South Africa and went on a road trip with a guy from Nebraska I met during my studies. It was the first day of our road trip and we drove for 8 hours straight. It got pretty dark and as there are no (traffic) lights at all during night time in the rural Wild Coast of South Africa I had a hard time driving. So he played this song and we went on a gravel road with pot holes bigger than Pluto. I was sweating in fear, curving around these holes going 60mph in absolute darkness because we wanted to reach the hostel before it closed during nighttime while my buddy started playing this song. Everything went silent in my head, the car almost automatically drove itself and I entered a stage of absolute calmness. And for some reason I never felt more alive.
    Thank you Derek - I had the greatest time of my live during the road trip that started on that evening!

    All those who smoke and are trying to quit I feel for ya. Started when I was about 16 and I can say it's the hardest thing to do. I've done a couple drugs and none of them compare to cigarettes.
