My son has been a huge NF fan for a couple of years now. He’s 13 and is being inspired to create music. The more I listen I see NF’s genius. We are seeing him live in may. Can’t wait!
Good shit!!! It's good to see more dads getting involved with their kids, and being able to jam to the same artist!! Keep up the good work my guy!! You're doing great brother!! No matter how hard life gets, don't ever lose that!!
Your son and I have the same thing. I’m 18 and got accepted to a university and I’m going to study Music all because of NF. NF is a genius artist and I’m so glad that I found him and listening to him daily :)
how could you leave us really helped me a while back because he lost his mom in a very very similar way to how I lost my dad. I’d love to see her dissect it.
Welcome to the NF ride! It's so good, but deep and tough. The neatest part of his journey is seeing his heart become more hopeful and healed as he walks with Jesus. He is cinematic and uses several themes throughout, including the balloons (baggage/pain)!
Would highly recommend Falling in Reverse as well, if you enjoy heart felt, heart wrenching, rabbit holes. They are both original and you can hear the pain in their words because they’ve lived what they write and produce.
The NF Journey.... It's a good one. NF Connects his music with visuals, lyrics and even with the various notes. These connections stretch over multiple albums and it shows how creative NF is. NF has more talent than 99% of the artists today.
The timemachine that takes him back when he was six. Maybe even younger i guess the point of it is to tell that little kid that hes gonna take a lot of hits.
NF is my fave rapper and artist of all time. He’s helped me find my own map to hope, challenged me to find real purpose in my workplace and helped me through some dark times. I’ve never listened to a more impactful artist. He’s the true GOAT.
Please go on the NF journey!!! I will watch every one or our reactions!!! Your mind will be 🤯. So so good. He has impacted and changed so many lives including my own for sure,
Since you just did The Seach, I'd recomend doing 'Leave Me Alone' next as it's kinda like a part two of what you just saw. After that you can go back to the beginning of his discography and start checking out the songs in order.
Nf has helped me through my mental health journey. This year I’ll be 7 years clean of s/h and I’m in school to be a therapist. Love your breakdowns 💜💜💜💜
I have listened to this song for years now. I have watched other videos of rappers breaking down the lyrics. I have NEVER heard somebody break it down as well you just did. Your comment on the perception of movies goes way deeper than anyone else ever has and that was a huge light bulb moment for me. Thank you. I actually cried watching your breakdown because you just pulled new revelations out of me. Thank you.
I have listened to this song around a million times and it doesn't matter how many times it makes me emotional. I discovered him at probably my lowest point in life and it really hit hard
When your mouth dropped and then the smile approached, we knew you were into it. :) NF puts out such bangers, and his lyrics are moving and so relatable at times. Thanks for your reaction !
so this fabulous man saved my life this yr during the hardest time i have ever been through with my child. he got me to cry so many times . every word he poetically and artistically expresses hit me so hard. i couldnt believe ive never heard of him till end last yr when i came across hope and couldnt stop listening to him non stop. i got to see him earlier this yr and it was so so so needed. i went alone but i felt so comfortable and happy around his crowd!! Thank you and thank you NF!!❤❤❤
oh nice you are on to NF now this man and Ren cut me to pieces. i love how NF tells a story and it feels like each song is a different part to an epic.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Watching people listen to Nate for the first time... I remember when I found him. It was like... who needs therapy when I have NF...? Also... Mansion is the first song I heard and is a MUST if you wanna know this man. ❤ Great video. Love it. *subscribed*
I tell everyone to give themselves grace and that no ones perfect. That you have a journey and things happen throughout the journey until you get to your destination. I don't allow myself the same grace. I'm special, I shouldn't make mistakes, I'm not allowed to show my pain.
From Micro: @stevedave3337 Yea, it's hard to have the same grace for ourselves as we would with others. You can see yourself believing genuinely in a certain amount of principles, and truths, but finding it particularly difficult to apply to the way you view yourself and your life. It's challenging to extend out compassion to ourselves when we feel like we don't deserve it somehow, that we need to treat ourselves differently because what applies to others, wouldn't apply to us. What you describe makes completely sense, and I'm sure a lot of people out there have experienced something similar. I include myself in it. Which may not reduce the depth of the struggle, but at least highlights the fact that this is, in itself, a struggle and profoundly human experience - not an indication of how bad or broken we may think we are. One thing is to know something as being true on the paper, but it's another process to *experience* this in your own life, body and mind. You can know in theory that you are worthy and don't need to be perfect, yet in practice finding yourself in conflict with everything you've learned about yourself, what you were told, your story as a whole. It's easy to maintain a compassionate outlook for others as it doesn't involve the way we feel about ourselves. To me personally, this duality has often made me feel like I would a hypocrite - preaching things to people I love without applying it to myself. But I was reminded many times that it's just an expression of how complex it is to be human. I think something very strong and positive in your message is that you are aware of this duality at play. You're not lying to yourself or just surrendering to the pressure you may put on your shoulders. You experience it, but you are *also* sitting on the passenger side and observes how all of this is functioning, and where the gears may not be oriented the right way - in the sense that it may not be serving you as it should, to unleash your potential and embrace the good that this life has to offer you. "I shouldn’t make mistakes", "I’m not allowed to show my pain", "I'm special" so the rules I apply to others don't apply to me... these are things you have learned, one way or another. Thankfully though, it can be unlearned too, progressively. There is a point when you can learn to recognize the patterns that are an expression of your pain, of your story, while also learning to detach yourself from it if it doesn't serve you. For you *know* already firsthand how it feels to surrender to these thoughts and principles, and that somehow there is nothing to lose for trying differently, little by little. Even if it's awfully scary and challenges our perception of what is safe for us. If anything, I see your strength and beauty. I see you. And I believe in your ability to move towards a path where you'll learn to change this narrative. You are a human being who has the right to be imperfect, broken, vulnerable - while being respected at all times. You deserve to show up to yourself the way you show up to the people you love and care about. :heart:
The end of the video. He pushed the cart to where he needed to be. He got there. But somebody helped him by dropping the white suit in the cart. This was signifying that he needed to change, put in the work with help, and got there. He made it in the end.
Brother passed Thanksgiving morning 2011, and I’m a recovering addict and alcoholic who’s 394 days clean. Shoved down that pain for so long it became my home. Still trying to let myself be proud of myself for getting clean for me and my wife and 4 kids , I and they deserve the best version of me. Dealing with the loss of my big brother is a lot easier clean and sober ….. he’d be proud of me I know it 🙌❤️ I am a sinner saved by gods grace
Congrats on your journey thus far. Keep fighting l, and pushing through and I'll keep you in prayer. Here's to the journey ahead by the Grace of God. Much love
congrats on 394 days clean and honestly my journy was depression it seems impossible to overcome but its not what helped me was surrounding myself with good people and working out it worked for me might work for others.
Thank you. This reaction was probably the best I've seen. Both this song and Leave Me Alone. You have a wonderful way of catching important details and explaining them in a way that makes the songs even more relatable. I'm a huge NF fan, have heard both songs many many times and you've given me new things to think about. Your recation to Leave me alone was also amazing. I saw that one first and knew I had to come here to hear your reaction to this song. Please go down the NF journey.
This Album from NF helped me through my depression. Something I really could relate to, the feeling someone exactly knowing what´s goin on inside of me.
I love the way he personifies his emotions - Intro III personifies fear and he's having a conversation with his fear. The evolution from How Could You Leave Us to Mama is beautifully done with his different perspective. There are so many incredible songs to listen to, so enjoy this journey! I like to call it cinematic rap - it's in a lane of its own!
I love the hype you have for this song. Its always my preworkout song before I go to the gym because the message is true. I'm on a journey to better my mind and my health and this song just reminds me of that
The combination of this amazing song combined with your analysis brought tears to my eyes, as someone who doesn’t cry very often i needed this, thank you for this video💙
Nf has gotten me through so many tough times. Listen to this whole album every single morning at the gym while I kick depression, anxiety and addiction in the teeth 💪🏻
My favorite lyrics if you wake up every morning and look at your face and think your never be great, you'll never be great which is true and the meaning is if you dont believe your good, you mind will assume that to be true and act as such, making you 'not good'
I love the work you do! So much needed nowadays! And i love the fact, that you remind the people that there is a complete healing. I was lucky enough, to go this way and I had no bad day in my life for the last three years or even longer. Cause I have the power to create my days and a big part, that led me there was therapy. Now I try to help people to get to that point, too. Admire you and your work! ✌🏻
Gotta add my voice to the pile of people down here in the comments asking you to keep going down the NF Rabbit Hole, this man's music played a HUGE role alongside therapy in my own recovery following a su*cide attempt. His whole discography is an INCREDIBLE journey and I would love to hear your thoughts on as much of it as you're willing to cover. (Also Ren - I found his music much later but Ren and NF are both incredible artists in their own right that I will never get tired of hearing people talk about)
I've heard this track 4 times today. I just found NF last year. The music of Ren and NF has transmuted everything I feel about myself and humanity in general. This is a wicked channel too. Things you've said over the last week have stuck with me. You're helping me for sure. Thank you.
He’s the best. Can’t wait for you to experience more. So many of these newer artists started rapping/singing about real stuff with NF as their inspiration. He’s touched my soul more than any other artist ever.
i dont listen to rap ever but NF always finds his way into my playlists. its great to hear a rapper talk some facts whilst also actually pronouncing all his words properly backed with a tasty beat. helps that a lot of his music also speaks to me on a personal level, great artist.
This song hits every note give me the biggest Goosebumps of any song NF is a real soldier I came straight from the bottom up you got me out of my addiction and out of my own head and I can't say how thankful I am you let me know I can save my own life
I'm thankful for this video. I know NF from many years but surely this interpretation adds up value to the song I'm so used to nowadays. You're content made me reflect and this is why I invest some of my time writing this comment. Being grateful is a very impacting feeling and rewarding too. So, just thank you for your effort and passion
Ok, so you like epic journeys? NF's discography is a pretty good one. I'd start by searching NF Journey, which you've seen a lot in the comments, I'm sure. Plenty of playlists. Seems like you guys have folks to do some curating before you react, so you could trim the list down to stuff just about mental health. On the other hand, if you like deep dives, the NF lore is real. Enjoy the ride; NF doesn't really miss.
NF is a man of faith. His faith helps carry him through. The more good that you do for God's kingdom the harder the attacks from the destroyer of souls. Mental health is vital but the condition of ones soul is equally important. I have seen the worst of the worst become saints that constantly save lives. Complete turnarounds.
Ok so I’m so glad you mentioned the cinematic feel to the music. the producer’s name is Tommy Profit and he has like the coolest music ever. All of his music is very cinematic and dramatic and it fits NF amazingly
This song is FIRE love it . This song has helped me get thrue some rough times. Ill ALWAYS WILL BLAST THIS TILL THE SPEAKERS BLEED. Your mind is the most beautiful weapon use it wisely.
I LOVE WATCHING and Listening to NF songs but listening to your backing of it is actually a very fun piece as well. You just got a new sub and will watch many more now.
I relate so much to the lyrics in his music and he has become my favorite artist. So glad I got to see him live for the second time. His music means so much to me as does so many other people.
Stoked u were able to find NF. Reactors who have the ability to understand NFs message through his lyrics. When watching others react to NF I notice the ones who have a therapist or social workers mind are the reactors who are my favorite ones to follow along on their journey because they get where he is coming from
I really love how you can go back and forth between explaining why the things he is saying are important, and just getting genuinely hyped by how dope the song is. Great reaction!
I always feel this song deeply every time I listen to it. It resonates with all the mental struggles I have. Well, I can say that about most of NF's music.
Do a NF Journey please!! One of the best lyrical artists I have every heart. He saved so many people and is a huge inspiration to many about menthal health
You actually helped me so much. You saying the stuff about failing and the steps in a persons life and at the end of the movie those parts are needed are give emphasis on the character winning at the end. Thank you so much
Awesome, true understanding and sincere deep emotions 💖 NF truly speaks facts & helps me through my own journey 🙏❤️ Music is therapeutic in so many ways, there's different genres and songs for everything and every mood and emotion that anyone feels❤😊
So I wanna start by saying I love this song as I relate to it so much. I'm 29 and have been doing live on my own since I was 15. I've struggled with a severe chronic depression as long as I can remember and have always felt like my life has been a search, for a place to belong, peace of mind and in general a better life than I had yesterday. I'm 29 years old grew up with military men and rough necks. I cried when you put together the part of being cinematic and and a search and the difference between reality and a movie I can't thank you for making me feel like I'm not the only one who sees this in life.
No words have ever been spoken better. My struggle with mental health has been going on 50 years now. I'm 52. For life's grand amusement I suffered trauma after trauma straight through until I was 28 and sent to prison. That experience led me to a therapist that told me I have PTSD, then another to tell me I have Bi-Polar. In my search, I have done all manner of therapy and treatments all the way up to 14 sessions of Electra compulsive therapy. There's nothing like sending yourself into a 2 minute seizure for fun right? Anyways, framing it a search instead of a struggle will take it's negativity away for me. I can feel it now as I type. Thank you very much!
I need to pause just long enough to say, this song was my VERY FIRST exposure to NF... I was blindsided by his brilliance. I cry almost every song of his. ❤
Please listen to his ALL albums, its incredible how hes evolving with EVERY song. Its a therapist's wet dream, believe me. The amount of self awarness he has about himself is insane. He actually taught me how to be more self aware about myself through his music.
NF is my idol he is literally the main reason I am alive I love this man and I listen to his music constantly when I feel su1c1dal or just depressed I just sit in my room and listen to his music and it helps so much I just hope it can help others :)
NF has such a different aura and that’s why it just hits different, i got to see this guy in concert when he came to my city i was crying the whole time 😭❤️🙏
MANSION, intro III, therapy session, change, how could you leave us, why, and THEN go with all HOPE. It is his ‘mature’ album, for understand it better I suggest to check the previous thoughts
Your reactions are amazing - just watched all your NF reactions and subbed. Keep up the amazing work! I've been going to therapy for a little over a year now, it's tough but I'd recommend it to anyone. Life is difficult - it's okay to need help with stuff
As a single dad of daughters that are my life 💜, the NF Journey I can truly say has saved my life, literally. Excited as a new sub to see you , a therapist with a beautiful heart get into the NF mental health journey! Let me add tho, get your tissues ready! Truly. 💜
I think the most important and powerful aspect of this song is it's duality, it's both inspiring and fear-inducing, it's optimistic but riddled with doubt, it's layered with positivity but it also carries the energy of a veiled threat. It encompasses the duality of man and makes it relatable wherever you stand in your own search for mental health (whether you are hopeful, hopeless, believing or disbelieving)...
MANSION should be your next NF song 🎵.
Should have been the first...
My stress
no motto or some hard one
@@josephbishop3590it’s ok… if you ask me The Search is the perfect starting point. It gets people excited and explains a few things like the balloons.
When you do Mansion….listen to Intro III right after….otherwise you may not get it 🤘
Her the whole time: 😮😮😮
Edit: I am not mocking her reaction, simply pointing it out. Also nf is the best
Lol
Yes!
That’s funnier than it’s supposed to rofl 🤣
It was kinda cringe it look like he was waiting for something to go in her mouth :)😂
@@cipriganea0000bro what
NF is a pure genius glad you’ve found the rabbit hole
We ready to go to Wonderland.
Da da da da da da da da da
If you get the reference you do
The ringer brought me to NF and i'm addicted no. NF is such a Genius.
Takes a certain intellect to like NF I fuck with him hard 😂😅
PLEASE DO “Just like you”!
My son has been a huge NF fan for a couple of years now. He’s 13 and is being inspired to create music. The more I listen I see NF’s genius. We are seeing him live in may. Can’t wait!
Good shit!!! It's good to see more dads getting involved with their kids, and being able to jam to the same artist!! Keep up the good work my guy!! You're doing great brother!! No matter how hard life gets, don't ever lose that!!
I'm 13🤭 and I've been listening 2 him 4 a while 2
Wait… am i your son?
Your son and I have the same thing. I’m 18 and got accepted to a university and I’m going to study Music all because of NF. NF is a genius artist and I’m so glad that I found him and listening to him daily :)
Mansion, Therapy Session and How could you leave us is a good place to start.
All three really good but intense ❤ definitely worth it
Start wherever the hll ypu want on the journey.
I came in on the search.
Eventually went back.
Stopped telling people how to experience music.
how could you leave us really helped me a while back because he lost his mom in a very very similar way to how I lost my dad. I’d love to see her dissect it.
idk if she's ready for the intensity of how could you leave us lol
Given your mental health background… you’re like the only reactor I am DYING to see go on the NF Journey!! You are gonna LOVE IT!!!
Yes!!!
I'm thinking the same thing!
Every song goes one and another it is like a movie so that you can listen to every one one after another
"Leave Me Alone" is the 2nd part of this song. it continues to dive into mental health as he continues his Search. SUBBED

You're going to bawl your eyes out when you hear "How Could You Leave Us?" followed by "Mama." Not to mention "Happy."
Agree
Mistake is another good one running also is fantastic one of my favorites
@@Talon18136FR running is super underrated ❤️
lol I will check out your playlist suggestion
You should also listen to let me go Nate Change and my stress
Welcome to the NF ride! It's so good, but deep and tough. The neatest part of his journey is seeing his heart become more hopeful and healed as he walks with Jesus.
He is cinematic and uses several themes throughout, including the balloons (baggage/pain)!
Best comment I've seen about description of nf.
Would highly recommend Falling in Reverse as well, if you enjoy heart felt, heart wrenching, rabbit holes. They are both original and you can hear the pain in their words because they’ve lived what they write and produce.
Wait until you watch “Hope.” A perfect example of a man seeking help, receiving it and improving from it.
I hope everyone who listens to NF can see the Christian themes in it :)
NF is a therapists dream. Go back to the very beginning! Oh and welcome to the NF family!
Mansion is next 🎉❤
I love psychology, maybe make it my job, bu twhat I found interesting is NF is so selfreflecting!
take it back, NF got a lot of those deep connection thoughts, since day 1
The NF Journey.... It's a good one.
NF Connects his music with visuals, lyrics and even with the various notes.
These connections stretch over multiple albums and it shows how creative NF is.
NF has more talent than 99% of the artists today.
frr
A therapist out here reminding me why NF was my most listened to artist last year.
NF been my most listened too artist year after year for most of the last decade 😅
“Nate” by NF is one of my favorite songs by him.
The timemachine that takes him back when he was six. Maybe even younger i guess the point of it is to tell that little kid that hes gonna take a lot of hits.
This song does not get the credit it deserves, one of the best
Real this was ranked number 5 on my list of every Nf song ranked by quality not opinion
The entire Journey is worth it. Nate has helped so many people through that journey
NF is an incredible artist. So cool to see deep dives into his music! 💛
If this is your first song by NF then you're in for a treat.
This was the first song that I heard and now I can’t stop listening to him😂😂😂

I've listened to most of these artists privately so it's always great to see you analyze their songs and lyrics
One of my favorite artists is NF. I've heard this song over and over. I took what was analyzed and realize I too need a therapist. Thanks.
When your mouth dropped and then the smile approached, we knew you were into it. :) NF puts out such bangers, and his lyrics are moving and so relatable at times. Thanks for your reaction !

Love anything and everything by NF the tracks (Change and Only) helped me from a very depressive state borderline suicidal.
The end of the video. He pushed the cart to where he needed to be. He got there. But somebody helped him by dropping the white suit in the cart. This was signifying that he needed to change, put in the work with help, and got there. He made it in the end.
NF is such a relatable rapper, and he is literally my favourite rapper
More NF 🗝️🗝️🗝️
NF is my fav artist. He makes me feel seen. He inspires me.
Loved the reaction, he’s an amazing artist. His songs have helped me get through some tough times. Thank you for the reaction 😊
Brother passed Thanksgiving morning 2011, and I’m a recovering addict and alcoholic who’s 394 days clean.
Shoved down that pain for so long it became my home.
Still trying to let myself be proud of myself for getting clean for me and my wife and 4 kids , I and they deserve the best version of me.

🙏🙏💥🫡
Nf has gotten me through so many tough times. Listen to this whole album every single morning at the gym while I kick depression, anxiety and addiction in the teeth 💪🏻
WHATEVER you do, DON'T listen to "hope" until you check out at LEAST 5 or 6 other songs. Mansion should absolutley be next though
First thing ive seen from you, love your genuine reaction. Youre going to love nf. Hes been my "therapist" for years now
My favorite lyrics if you wake up every morning and look at your face and think your never be great, you'll never be great which is true and the meaning is if you dont believe your good, you mind will assume that to be true and act as such, making you 'not good'
I love the work you do! So much needed nowadays! And i love the fact, that you remind the people that there is a complete healing. I was lucky enough, to go this way and I had no bad day in my life for the last three years or even longer. Cause I have the power to create my days and a big part, that led me there was therapy.
Now I try to help people to get to that point, too. Admire you and your work! ✌🏻
Gotta add my voice to the pile of people down here in the comments asking you to keep going down the NF Rabbit Hole, this man's music played a HUGE role alongside therapy in my own recovery following a su*cide attempt. His whole discography is an INCREDIBLE journey and I would love to hear your thoughts on as much of it as you're willing to cover. (Also Ren - I found his music much later but Ren and NF are both incredible artists in their own right that I will never get tired of hearing people talk about)
I've heard this track 4 times today. I just found NF last year. The music of Ren and NF has transmuted everything I feel about myself and humanity in general. This is a wicked channel too. Things you've said over the last week have stuck with me. You're helping me for sure. Thank you.
1:32 her face 🤣🤣🤣
Ooo
He’s the best. Can’t wait for you to experience more. So many of these newer artists started rapping/singing about real stuff with NF as their inspiration. He’s touched my soul more than any other artist ever.
I'm TOTALLY subbed for NF!🎉🎉🎉🎉🔥💯
i dont listen to rap ever but NF always finds his way into my playlists. its great to hear a rapper talk some facts whilst also actually pronouncing all his words properly backed with a tasty beat. helps that a lot of his music also speaks to me on a personal level, great artist.
People who know the whole song and just sing it the entire time>>>>>
yup
this is one of my favourite songs because of the deeper meaning of the lyrics love
Let You Down by NF is another impactful song
This song hits every note give me the biggest Goosebumps of any song NF is a real soldier I came straight from the bottom up you got me out of my addiction and out of my own head and I can't say how thankful I am you let me know I can save my own life
NF Is my favorite rapper
Mine tooo❤❤❤
I'm thankful for this video. I know NF from many years but surely this interpretation adds up value to the song I'm so used to nowadays. You're content made me reflect and this is why I invest some of my time writing this comment. Being grateful is a very impacting feeling and rewarding too. So, just thank you for your effort and passion
Ok, so you like epic journeys? NF's discography is a pretty good one.
I'd start by searching NF Journey, which you've seen a lot in the comments, I'm sure. Plenty of playlists. Seems like you guys have folks to do some curating before you react, so you could trim the list down to stuff just about mental health. On the other hand, if you like deep dives, the NF lore is real. Enjoy the ride; NF doesn't really miss.
Nf is my favorite artist!
NF is a man of faith. His faith helps carry him through. The more good that you do for God's kingdom the harder the attacks from the destroyer of souls. Mental health is vital but the condition of ones soul is equally important. I have seen the worst of the worst become saints that constantly save lives. Complete turnarounds.
Ok so I’m so glad you mentioned the cinematic feel to the music. the producer’s name is Tommy Profit and he has like the coolest music ever. All of his music is very cinematic and dramatic and it fits NF amazingly
This song is FIRE love it .
This song has helped me get thrue some rough times.
Ill ALWAYS WILL BLAST THIS TILL THE SPEAKERS BLEED.
Your mind is the most beautiful weapon use it wisely.
I LOVE WATCHING and Listening to NF songs but listening to your backing of it is actually a very fun piece as well. You just got a new sub and will watch many more now.
I relate so much to the lyrics in his music and he has become my favorite artist. So glad I got to see him live for the second time. His music means so much to me as does so many other people.
Stoked u were able to find NF. Reactors who have the ability to understand NFs message through his lyrics. When watching others react to NF I notice the ones who have a therapist or social workers mind are the reactors who are my favorite ones to follow along on their journey because they get where he is coming from
I really love how you can go back and forth between explaining why the things he is saying are important, and just getting genuinely hyped by how dope the song is. Great reaction!
8:16 thats everyone's expression when listening for first time 😅
Welcome to the NF journey ☺️
I always feel this song deeply every time I listen to it. It resonates with all the mental struggles I have. Well, I can say that about most of NF's music.
Do a NF Journey please!! One of the best lyrical artists I have every heart. He saved so many people and is a huge inspiration to many about menthal health
You actually helped me so much. You saying the stuff about failing and the steps in a persons life and at the end of the movie those parts are needed are give emphasis on the character winning at the end. Thank you so much
Awesome, true understanding and sincere deep emotions 💖
NF truly speaks facts & helps me through my own journey 🙏❤️
Music is therapeutic in so many ways, there's different genres and songs for everything and every mood and emotion that anyone feels❤😊
We are all on our own Hero's Journey, it's all about the path you take. Thanks for the video.... keep on The Journey - it will make you cry..
Love this! The idea, the execution, the insight! Incredible. Thank you!
NF is a genuine lyrical genius and a highly relatable artist
NF is Brilliant he's one of my Favorite Artists.
NF - WHEN I GROW UP
OMG THIS….. ALL OF IT. The amount of pure talent in this and the video is 10/10. DO IT
So I wanna start by saying I love this song as I relate to it so much. I'm 29 and have been doing live on my own since I was 15. I've struggled with a severe chronic depression as long as I can remember and have always felt like my life has been a search, for a place to belong, peace of mind and in general a better life than I had yesterday. I'm 29 years old grew up with military men and rough necks. I cried when you put together the part of being cinematic and and a search and the difference between reality and a movie I can't thank you for making me feel like I'm not the only one who sees this in life.
I watch a lot of reactors to music Bcs of the way they explain and break it down. But you !! You have become my favorite
NF - TIME
Now this one….. cinematically it’s astounding, there’s so much depth.
No words have ever been spoken better. My struggle with mental health has been going on 50 years now. I'm 52. For life's grand amusement I suffered trauma after trauma straight through until I was 28 and sent to prison. That experience led me to a therapist that told me I have PTSD, then another to tell me I have Bi-Polar. In my search, I have done all manner of therapy and treatments all the way up to 14 sessions of Electra compulsive therapy. There's nothing like sending yourself into a 2 minute seizure for fun right? Anyways, framing it a search instead of a struggle will take it's negativity away for me. I can feel it now as I type. Thank you very much!
Your energy is on another level❤ Nf is dope af! Pozdrowienia z Polski
I need to pause just long enough to say, this song was my VERY FIRST exposure to NF... I was blindsided by his brilliance. I cry almost every song of his. ❤
I am sooo happy you did this!!!!! ❤ Welcome to the NF journey!😊
Please listen to his ALL albums, its incredible how hes evolving with EVERY song. Its a therapist's wet dream, believe me. The amount of self awarness he has about himself is insane. He actually taught me how to be more self aware about myself through his music.
NF is my idol he is literally the main reason I am alive I love this man and I listen to his music constantly when I feel su1c1dal or just depressed I just sit in my room and listen to his music and it helps so much I just hope it can help others :)
Subbed for more NF, excited to see you dive in.
This is one of my favorite songs. NF has a lot of great songs for you to breakdown. He helped me through a lot of my mental health journey.
I’ve heard this song so many times yet I still get the chills
You’re the first person I’ve seen who eats these lyrics up like I do. Like man this stuff is deep, it’s has impact, and it’s so relevant.
NF has such a different aura and that’s why it just hits different, i got to see this guy in concert when he came to my city i was crying the whole time 😭❤️🙏
MANSION, intro III, therapy session, change, how could you leave us, why, and THEN go with all HOPE. It is his ‘mature’ album, for understand it better I suggest to check the previous thoughts
Absolutely take the NF journey...savor every step. And when you get to Hope, pick your jaw up off the floor.
Your reactions are amazing - just watched all your NF reactions and subbed. Keep up the amazing work! I've been going to therapy for a little over a year now, it's tough but I'd recommend it to anyone. Life is difficult - it's okay to need help with stuff
As a single dad of daughters that are my life 💜, the NF Journey I can truly say has saved my life, literally. Excited as a new sub to see you , a therapist with a beautiful heart get into the NF mental health journey! Let me add tho, get your tissues ready! Truly. 💜
I think the most important and powerful aspect of this song is it's duality, it's both inspiring and fear-inducing, it's optimistic but riddled with doubt, it's layered with positivity but it also carries the energy of a veiled threat.
It encompasses the duality of man and makes it relatable wherever you stand in your own search for mental health (whether you are hopeful, hopeless, believing or disbelieving)...
