I know how difficult it can be trust me, but she is forever part of you. You are quite literally half of her. In everything you do, who she is takes part in that action, and her spirit pushes you forward in your pursuit to greatness, show her how proud you can make her even in her absence, she is witnessing your growth, cheering you on with the unconditional love she has always had for you ❤️🩹
I was watching Southpaw a few months ago with my father, he was diagnosed with cancer shortly before the covid-lockdown began in Germany. He couldn‘t get any visitors at home, so he watched mostly tv when he felt alright. This was one of the last films I watched with him. I remember feeling so emotional at the end when I heard this song, i immediately recognized frank ocean. I felt so warm hearing „ you’re mother would be proud of you“ when the the daughter and father were hugging in the last scene. My father died now 9 months ago. It feels so surreal and crazy. I can’t even realize it. Anyway when I hear this song, I think about him a lot and I get all these memories of him and feel his presence. Thank you for this masterpiece! Rest in Paradise Baba. I love you forever and always. ♥️
I'm so sorry for your loss, the memories you have together are a blessing - i hope you can make it through this period a stronger and better person. lots of love x
@@robbie9821 thank you so so much, wish you all the best too and a lot of blessings, life is beautiful, we just gotta keep reminding ourselves of that. 💗
One of his deepest and best songs and it pisses me off so much that it’s not on Spotify so I’ve had to keep my phone on while it plays on TH-cam and actually seek it out every time
My heart hurts so much listening to this song. I hope God is rooting for me. I hope someone is rooting for me. I don’t have many reasons to live but I can say that Frank oceans music is one of my top reasons as to why I’m still here. The way he translates his soul into his music.. beautiful.
I was just reminded of this song and went to search it up, and I was not expecting to find a comment from only an hour prior. I feel the exact way, life is so hard and painful and it’s so difficult to keep finding reasons to keep going-but even though we’re both going through it, it’s comforting to at least know that I’m not alone in these feelings. I hope God is rooting for me too. I’m rooting for you, I don’t know you but I’m rooting for you, I believe in you and I hope that light and happiness comes to both of us ❤️
I definitely feel you on that one . Life really sucks right now … or most of my life has . But he helps me get through it . He is my #1 of all time . No debate . God created him for this purpose for sure . Hope things get better for you ❤️🩹
I LOVE Frank, and had never heard this song before. Don't know how I missed it, but it's beautiful. Glad Drake sampled it, which lead me to discover it. Would love to hear Drake and Frank collab on an R&B track one day.
Found this track while browsing through Frank's Tumblr acc one night. Apparently, he wrote it for Django Unchained, but Quentin couldn’t think of where to use it in the movie.

I’ve never been able to figure out how Frank makes music that makes me want to cry and makes me so happy all at once. Every song of his brings up memories I didnt even know I had 😭😭😭
He’s a dedicated artist that is very introspective and has been writing music / songs since a very young age, also he’s in no hurry to make mediocre hits , his integrity as an artist only allows him to make songs that come from a pure place with emotion.
He is a true artist , I feel like Artist Frank ocean and Artist Enya make the same kind of celestial art . Bet they know about the extraterrestrials and the angels ❤❤❤
you can't deny the emotion in this song, from the way he sings his lyrics to the words themselves. every once in a while i come back to this song and it still hits me just as hard as it did years ago. testament to Ocean's talent.
I’ve been coming back to this song for years. Everytime I have a big decision to make or I’m bout to take on something I don’t think I can handle I play this one. It’s gotten me through some of my darkest times and has become one of my top 5 motivational songs to get my head straight. Definitely going to have it on replay for a min while I think over some more life decisions. It got me through my father’s death, moving, leaving for the army, leaving country, saying goodbye to my loved ones. I know it’ll get me through what’s coming next. About a decade. Crazy how long music sticks with someone. Definitely one of franks top songs in my opinion. Maybe not record wise or sales. But to me. This one is my favorite.
You passed away when i was 16.. it hasn't been easy... especially when my babies came into this world. I had no idea what i was doing.. but.. my baby girl is 16 now mama! And my little boy is 12. I am the same age now that you are when you passed mama. i hope your proud
It has been 4 days since my brother's best friend's funeral. It has been 14 days since he died. They played this song showing all his pictures of him growing up. They grew up together and my brother made the video and put on the song. I haven't stopped listening to it since. My baby brother grew up infront of me carrying his friend's casket and saying his speech. I can't get the funeral out of my head or his death, I can't imagine what my brother is going through. I know they were brothers. Thank you Frank
This song makes me think over the entire 19 odd years of my life, all the emotions, all the moments, all the memories, but it also makes me think about the future that may be and all the emotions, moments and memories that it might bring. A true lyrical and musical masterpiece..
This song is unbelievable. My mom used to play this for me when I was a little kid and I’ve only come back to this song now. It holds an unexplainable amount of emotion.
about a month ago i went through a really bad breakup. i was a mess. i loved him even though we dated for such a short amount of time. i still see him in the hallways at school and whenever i see him, this song plays. thank you frank for this amazing song. thank you for keeping me here
Keep pushing kid and work hard to achieve your goals, just know my little man that you being on this Earth is a blessing and if things are going well in your life that your mother is already so proud of you. Although her body is no longer here on this Earth she will always be with you and watching over you in spirit. My condolences.
my condolences. remember all the best parts of her and everything she taught even if it wasn't verbalized or direct. May you go and be great in the world 💜
i miss my father. i wish i knew better back then and didnt distance myself from him. im sorry dad. i knew you were trying your best to provide for us. i love you.
This song emotionally empties me. I don’t know why. But it also makes me feel good. I find this song randomly and cry my eyes out. I can’t explain it. It just hits really hard. I miss friends I’ve lost and I miss my papa before dementia took him. Now I take care of him and it’s a lot.
I played this song while i was getting dressed on my wedding day, I was asked by my best men to get ready together i declined all i needed was this song.
I knew of this song from memory, drake sample brought me back, I was like I’ve heard this before, no Spotify or Apple Music sucks, my mom passed when I was 11, hits hard, shout out to anyone who lost a loved one ❤
unreleased Frankc Ocean feels like a whole new world of music, it almost feels like its own genre of music because I dont think ill ever come across such artist as frank ocean who deepky nutures all his projects
I wish I could tell you which rock I’ve been living under, to have missed this utter masterpiece but I have just discovered it, only to have the most intensely visceral response to it. What a work of art. This is now on my top ten of all time. ❤
My sister passed in march. This song reminds me of her. She wasn’t perfect. Lots of demons. At the end of the day, we are all human filled with good and bad. But still our mother was and is proud of her (so am I) for all she accomplished in her 37 years of life. Miss you Angela.
Spotify Wrapped 2022 came out yesterday, Frank Ocean yet again for the past few years has consistently been on my top artists, I got top 0.1% and today was the first day I've ever come across this song, the emotions I feel from listening to a Frank song is unexplainable and the meaning of this song is so deep and it makes me appreciate Frank, everyone and everything that's around me day in, day out.
I need more powerful songs like this. This is such a rare feeling listening to this drop. The emotions it brings up. Please help me find more like this.

The “i bet your mother would be proud of you” really hits me because my mom passed away when i was a baby and she never got to see me grow up or anything and i think she would be very proud of where me and my sister are today.
Oh my.... how you have been missing out!!! He has truly written some very poetic songs. It’s a shame how “under-appreciated” and “unrecognized” his talent has gone at times-so poetic and flying under the radar with these gems.
This song has really been with me throughout some of the hardest parts of my life. More recently though, I sit or lay and listen to this song just reflecting on everything. I have such an emotional connection to this song.
I dont really comment on a youtube video, but this song man. it's just too good. always wondered whether my late dad and mom are ever proud of me, too scared to ask and whenever i reflect on myself i feel like there's nothing of me to be proud of. listening to frank ocean saying that at least my mom is proud of me (and he bets it haha) feels kinda good, made me weep a little bit. sad man cannot cry in place where man can see never witnessed father weep
Just found this song. The refrain has me in tears. I feel like i've never made my mother (or father proud). 22 years on this planet and I've always been a letdown. I hope I can do it before you leave me Mama. I wish I was the son you deserved, I would give every drop of blood I have to make you proud. I'm sorry. I'm trying but I'm failing.
Ive always been a daddy's girl. He was/is thr absolute BEST father and person ive ever met. He was PURE,selfless, and when it came to raising me he kept the heart of a child, yet the mind of a Bear when it came to protecting me.He taught me what unconditional love was. He was always my best friend. He struggled with immense pain for most of my life and as i grew older I could tell he was so tired of suffering. Along with many injuries from the past, he also struggled with grand mal seizures. His brain was split from old injuries and he was told that one more hit to his head would likely kill him. He struggled with the idea of living in this world in pain, or leaving it but also temporarily leaving me. For years. 2 Novembers ago i went to bed slightly earlier than normal. Before I went to bed i told him I loved him. He went into his room& turned his light on. I woke up at 5:15am to feed my 2mo old baby and I saw that my dads light was on so I asked to see if he was up. I didn't hear an answer so i i cracked the door some. I found my dad face down so i went to touch him to try to wake him up..only to realize that he was in rigormortis. Imagine ALL of the love in the whole world combined into one person. I lost my absolute best friend. And now i wake up every day here without him.with no one in the world who loves me that purely. And alone. With NO words that ever fit the love & loss that I wish so badly to Express. All i can do now is hope that he truly can still be with me, and maybe he's even proud too. **please no hateful or rude comments.
You will never be alone, he will always be with you no matter what. I’m sure he was an amazing man and he would 100% be proud of you! Stay strong, everything happens for a reason!
I shouldn’t have read this with this song in the background. I’m a mess right now but I just wanted to let you know that you are not alone no matter how lonely you feel. You mean a lot to so many people and there will be people along in your life that you haven’t met yet. Keep being good to yourself, I bet your father would be proud of you for doing that. Sending you all the love. 💙
Thank you guys. I just gave birth to another son, he had to be hospitalized for about a month. He was the first baby ive had that my father didnt hold directly after birth and say "welcome to this world little one, no one will ever hurt you as long as im around. You are very loved" ...Boy did missing him get even harder. Then i realized..we were released after a month of being hours away from home with a newborn who my dad will never get to hold,...we ended up being released on my dads Birthday :,) ugh losing your best friend/your dad NEVER seems to get any easier still...but then their are little signs like that , that make me wonder if he was really right here all along..
i never had a relationship with my dad side of the family & my grandma on his side now has cancer i’ve never thought that one day there would be a day they would leave this earth i wouldn’t know them and they wouldn’t know the person i am today.. but it’s taught to be grateful for the ones who love you and take the time to get to know & there for you because life is short. never take your love ones for granted love them while there here and get to know them while you still have the opportunity to. sending so much love to whoever reads this..💘💕💖

Fun Fact: this was originally meant for Django unchained but Tarantino thought it was too much of a tender and beautiful song for Django

Fuck Tarantino. Great director nonetheless
The song ended up being used in Southpaw. I remember it was close to the final scene, maybe in the credits. Still wish it was used in Django.

But your mother would be proud of you
I bet your mother would be proud of you
The beast will crawl this earth
Then fall in the dirt to feed the crows
They'll rip apart his flesh
Til all that's left is glorious bone
So you'll bury your own
Too vain
You saw it unfold
What you know
And you claimed all you could hold
Until death did you part from the mess you made
I bet your mother would be proud of you
I bet your mother would be proud of you

To survive and thrive in the jungle
Maybe hearts were made to pump blood
Maybe lungs were made for flood
I won't blunt my blade for cut these chains
Rather let my limbs be dragged through mud

Rest in peace I know she is looking at you from heaven and is so proud of you.
Sorry for you loss, but that’s not the message he was trying to portray in the song. He was being sarcastic about the previous line
I will never forgive frank for not putting this on Spotify
add it yourself through local files
Pay for youtube...and get access to a much much larger library....and educational videos....

@@dianaalvarez9794i’m so glad to hear you’re still doing well 🥰 i hope that continues for you
@@hannahjolene3333 thank you omg🥰
the lyrics and emotion in this song make it so truly exceptional… so genius, frank
This song is unbelievable. My mom used to play this for me when I was a little kid and I’ve only come back to this song now. It holds an unexplainable amount of emotion.
This song is whatever you want it to be ..
Hmmm...
I mean not really but sure
Feel this
I discovered it just today 😭 Frank is my favorite singer and I don't know how I didn't hear this before
I’m 14 and this is deep...
I hope future youth will study this song like they do Shakespeare
Yes ❤️
I'm actually studying the song in my AP Language Arts class today!
@@Laibeans Thats awesome! Did you propose the idea???
This is such a beautiful comment
Great Song. It was played at the very end of the movie SOUTHPAW when daughter runs into dressing room to hug her father.
Brian Kalish and was originally supposed to be in Django but got pulled a few weeks before release date and replaced with the Rick Ross song.
Michael Alejandro do you know why it was pulled from the movie? It actually would’ve been perfect for it
Woke Star why you think? Frank probably got stubborn about it lol
@@travis6694 i cant remember where i read this but it said they couldn't find any place to fit it well, even thought its a masterpiece
goated movie fr 🥲
about a month ago i went through a really bad breakup. i was a mess. i loved him even though we dated for such a short amount of time. i still see him in the hallways at school and whenever i see him, this song plays. thank you frank for this amazing song. thank you for keeping me here
This is no exaggeration. Frank might have the most beautiful voice that's ever Graced this earth.
this song go hard to me real talk
facts.
real talk
For real.
one of the most beautiful songs ever written, put me in tears during my first listen
Frank Ocean makes an incredible contribution to the music industry. He has restored my soul far too many times.
I don't understand why this isn't available on all music stores! this is one of the best I've ever heard!!
Because he leaked it for free
at least it's on youtube music
I am 13. My mom has died. This song touches my heart...
Condolences 🙏🏾
Keep pushing kid and work hard to achieve your goals, just know my little man that you being on this Earth is a blessing and if things are going well in your life that your mother is already so proud of you. Although her body is no longer here on this Earth she will always be with you and watching over you in spirit. My condolences.
my condolences. remember all the best parts of her and everything she taught even if it wasn't verbalized or direct. May you go and be great in the world 💜
condolences... ❤
aww i’m so sorry 😢❤ she’s proud of you forever
The most beautiful song I’ve heard in my life
thank you frank ocean. still listening in 2019.
For me 1 of the best masterpiece of frank.
And in 2020
2023
I find myself coming back to this song very often! Love Frank’s sound.
i miss my father. i wish i knew better back then and didnt distance myself from him. im sorry dad. i knew you were trying your best to provide for us. i love you.
Discovering this song at this time made my year.
This song makes me wonna go from suicidal to life coach.
Hope you're doing ok!
😂Im dead🤦💀
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂
Exactly, there is hope!!!!!!!!!
I bet your mother would be proud of you 🖤
One of the best songs ever. I listened it a thousand times and it still makes me feel emotional…
If you read this comment, I wish you a good day!
Anyone else cry’s at how beautiful this one is
Yes
So much to unpack with this song. Brilliant on so many levels. The story behind it. Completely under the radar. I can’t get enough.
0:10 0:12
This song emotionally empties me. I don’t know why. But it also makes me feel good. I find this song randomly and cry my eyes out. I can’t explain it. It just hits really hard. I miss friends I’ve lost and I miss my papa before dementia took him. Now I take care of him and it’s a lot.
I played this song while i was getting dressed on my wedding day, I was asked by my best men to get ready together i declined all i needed was this song.
I love you so much for this ❤
Gay
@Jose Lino to each his own. I guess.
thats beautiful
I knew of this song from memory, drake sample brought me back, I was like I’ve heard this before, no Spotify or Apple Music sucks, my mom passed when I was 11, hits hard, shout out to anyone who lost a loved one ❤
“i bet your mother would be proud of you” *destroys* me every time
unreleased Frankc Ocean feels like a whole new world of music, it almost feels like its own genre of music because I dont think ill ever come across such artist as frank ocean who deepky nutures all his projects
Discovered this song too late but better late than never ❤
this changed my life.
I wish I could tell you which rock I’ve been living under, to have missed this utter masterpiece but I have just discovered it, only to have the most intensely visceral response to it. What a work of art. This is now on my top ten of all time. ❤
thank you to Drake for sampling this song otherwise i wouldn’t have known it existed. it’s so perfect. 😭😭😭
Felt this
the genius ovo40
u better start listening frank not drake 💯💯💯
thank his producers not him
@@victoriaa9774make me 💯💯💯
My sister passed in march. This song reminds me of her. She wasn’t perfect. Lots of demons. At the end of the day, we are all human filled with good and bad. But still our mother was and is proud of her (so am I) for all she accomplished in her 37 years of life. Miss you Angela.
so sorry for your loss man. Sending you love
me sister passed when she was 39. my thought are with you my friend
!
Thank you !!
Im sorry for your loss 💔 Jesus is huging her right now, with al her good and bad. Hope the best for you and your family ❤️🩹🙏🏾
Spotify Wrapped 2022 came out yesterday, Frank Ocean yet again for the past few years has consistently been on my top artists, I got top 0.1% and today was the first day I've ever come across this song, the emotions I feel from listening to a Frank song is unexplainable and the meaning of this song is so deep and it makes me appreciate Frank, everyone and everything that's around me day in, day out.
it's an unreleased song that was meant for the Django Unchained soundtrack. why it wasn't used is beyond me.
That “Your mother would be proud of you” hits differently… Have you in nostalgia spirit
Thankyou Drake for putting me on to this masterpiece
Drake sampling this for the first song in his album was the comeback I didn't know I needed. Gave this man his flowers. 💐
I need more powerful songs like this. This is such a rare feeling listening to this drop. The emotions it brings up. Please help me find more like this.
This one song has saved my life on more than one occasion. It’s okay to not be okay sometimes.
well said man
i fw with you jacob
Wiseman closed his mouth
Madman closed his fist
Young man shows his age
Judge man named it sin
Bad men don't exist, no, no
Evil men exist
Good men don't exist, no, no
Righteous men exist
Sad man cannot cry in place where men can see
Never witnessed father weep
This old man thought it weak
But strong men don't exist, no
Undying men exists
Weak men don't exist, no
Just flesh and blood exist
But your mother would be proud of you
I bet your mother would be proud of you
The beast will crawl this earth
Then fall in the dirt to feed the crows
They'll rip apart his flesh
Till all that's left is glorious bone
So you'll bury your own
Too vain
You saw it unfold
What you know
You claimed all you could hold
Until death did you part from the mess you made
I bet your mother would be proud of you
I bet your mother would be proud of you
Primate sharpens tool
To survive and thrive in the jungle
Maybe hearts were made to pump blood
Maybe lungs were made for flood
I won't blunt my blade for cut these chains
Rather let my limbs be drug through mud
You're my brother but your eyes are cold
You're my sister but your womb is bare
I bet our mother would be proud of you
(You, you, you, oooh)
I bet our mother would be proud of you
(Mother would be proud)
Bad men don't exist, no
Evil men exist
I know good men don't exist, no
Righteous men exist
But strong men don't exist, no
Undying men exists
Weak men don't exist, no
Just flesh and blood exists
I bet your mother would be proud, oooh
I bet your mother would be proud, oooh
This brings me back to my sophomore year of hs I was blasting this in my earphones back then 😭
Chasni H. son, the most accurate comment
Awesome :)
The “i bet your mother would be proud of you” really hits me because my mom passed away when i was a baby and she never got to see me grow up or anything and i think she would be very proud of where me and my sister are today.
Aww I think she would too
anyone in october 2024??
💚💚💚 every month til infinity

Yea halloween
Yurr
its 2021 and this song still makes me cry every time.
This song transcends.
I still get goosebumps hearing this.
I can't believe I'm only just finding out about this artist. I'm in tear!
Oh my.... how you have been missing out!!! He has truly written some very poetic songs. It’s a shame how “under-appreciated” and “unrecognized” his talent has gone at times-so poetic and flying under the radar with these gems.
You done fucked up.
welcome to the cult
@@heatherkeebler8710 he isn't underappreciated at all he's literally one of the most praised artists of the 2010s lol
@@ashkielyn this a cult not a clique on the net.
This song has really been with me throughout some of the hardest parts of my life. More recently though, I sit or lay and listen to this song just reflecting on everything. I have such an emotional connection to this song.
Man i need more Frank Ocean music, one of my favorite artists
thought the same thing and then I found "nostalgia, ultra" it was amazing
Mr. Frank Ocean is my man.
I honestly can't put to words how much this song means to me
When listening to this song, it makes me feel like someone is giving me a hug and telling me everything is going to be ok
i literally cannot stop playing this song
I dont really comment on a youtube video, but this song man. it's just too good. always wondered whether my late dad and mom are ever proud of me, too scared to ask and whenever i reflect on myself i feel like there's nothing of me to be proud of. listening to frank ocean saying that at least my mom is proud of me (and he bets it haha) feels kinda good, made me weep a little bit.
sad man cannot cry in place where man can see
never witnessed father weep
Just found this song. The refrain has me in tears. I feel like i've never made my mother (or father proud). 22 years on this planet and I've always been a letdown. I hope I can do it before you leave me Mama. I wish I was the son you deserved, I would give every drop of blood I have to make you proud. I'm sorry. I'm trying but I'm failing.
HE STILL NEEDS TO PUT OUT THIS SONG IDC THAT ITS BEEN TEN YEARS 😭✋
I listened to this comin down off meth wen I relapsed. It really hit home for me. Timeless yo. Timeless
hope you doing okay bro
Man
@@miketruk7639 I am bro, I gotta car and I'm workin a job now. I've been blessed lately. Life is still hard, no doubt, but I'm dealin wit it sober
C.j. Jusschillin Congrats on being sober. Proud of you ❤

Ms Indy Blue, forever showing me songs I never knew about
Ive always been a daddy's girl. He was/is thr absolute BEST father and person ive ever met. He was PURE,selfless, and when it came to raising me he kept the heart of a child, yet the mind of a Bear when it came to protecting me.He taught me what unconditional love was. He was always my best friend. He struggled with immense pain for most of my life and as i grew older I could tell he was so tired of suffering. Along with many injuries from the past, he also struggled with grand mal seizures. His brain was split from old injuries and he was told that one more hit to his head would likely kill him. He struggled with the idea of living in this world in pain, or leaving it but also temporarily leaving me. For years. 2 Novembers ago i went to bed slightly earlier than normal. Before I went to bed i told him I loved him. He went into his room& turned his light on. I woke up at 5:15am to feed my 2mo old baby and I saw that my dads light was on so I asked to see if he was up. I didn't hear an answer so i i cracked the door some. I found my dad face down so i went to touch him to try to wake him up..only to realize that he was in rigormortis. Imagine ALL of the love in the whole world combined into one person. I lost my absolute best friend. And now i wake up every day here without him.with no one in the world who loves me that purely. And alone. With NO words that ever fit the love & loss that I wish so badly to Express. All i can do now is hope that he truly can still be with me, and maybe he's even proud too.
**please no hateful or rude comments.
You will never be alone, he will always be with you no matter what. I’m sure he was an amazing man and he would 100% be proud of you! Stay strong, everything happens for a reason!
I shouldn’t have read this with this song in the background. I’m a mess right now but I just wanted to let you know that you are not alone no matter how lonely you feel. You mean a lot to so many people and there will be people along in your life that you haven’t met yet. Keep being good to yourself, I bet your father would be proud of you for doing that. Sending you all the love. 💙
Hey thats... hard... I hope everything gets better, believe me it will. I am sending my prayers from here.
Thank you guys. I just gave birth to another son, he had to be hospitalized for about a month. He was the first baby ive had that my father didnt hold directly after birth and say "welcome to this world little one, no one will ever hurt you as long as im around. You are very loved" ...Boy did missing him get even harder. Then i realized..we were released after a month of being hours away from home with a newborn who my dad will never get to hold,...we ended up being released on my dads Birthday :,) ugh losing your best friend/your dad NEVER seems to get any easier still...but then their are little signs like that , that make me wonder if he was really right here all along..
Who’s here in 2024?👀
Me
me
I’m upset and also blessed that I just barely discovered this song ❤
I LOVE FRANK SO MCUCH ITS NOT EVEN FUNNY
Me
I love finding Frank Ocean songs I haven’t heard before. Great song ❤
Man I wish this was on Spotify... brings me back to my high school days : ' )
Best unreleased Frank song 😭 will forever beg for this to be released on Spotify 🙏🏻
the way frank ocean made the best song in this whole world and said “yeah, this ones staying in the files”
„Bet your mother would be proud of you“ gets me everytime bro
2025 anyone here ?
Yes
i never had a relationship with my dad side of the family & my grandma on his side now has cancer i’ve never thought that one day there would be a day they would leave this earth i wouldn’t know them and they wouldn’t know the person i am today.. but it’s taught to be grateful for the ones who love you and take the time to get to know & there for you because life is short. never take your love ones for granted love them while there here and get to know them while you still have the opportunity to. sending so much love to whoever reads this..💘💕💖
A lyrical genius..he breaks my heart with his poetic diction.
Some days I can listen to this on replay but some days only once because of the emotion journey it can take me on...
