I didn’t listen to his music until he was dead unfortunately but he died the day before my birthday and my sister found out on my birthday and she was sad to hear the news.
My 21 year old son sent this song to me from sober living in March. It scared the hell out of me. I knew nothing about Mac Miller. When I learned more about his passing I was more scared. Immediately asked him if he was ok. He said he was and just wanted to share. We called the staff at the facility to keep an eye on him. Five weeks later we got the call he died from Xanax laced with fentanyl. I listen to this song a lot. A beautiful sound with words that tell me how Mac and my son were tortured.
I struggled with Xanax and my cousin with fentanyl I thought she was stupid not caring if she died messing w that stuff. and I thought I was in the clear because I hadn’t heard it been in Xanax but it took your baby boy and so many more im sure this isn’t what you want ti hear but this little comment and his story will stick with me and I know it will help me not relapse with Xanax. Thank you both
My girl and I went to his house to leave some candles and to pay our respects. When we were there we looked at everything people left him and there was a cd that had writing on it. It read, “ You helped more people than you think” and you did Mac rest easy.
@@TheMiig1513 Mac Miller actually stated that a kid told him something like this although Mac was still doing drugs in front of him. The kid said he looked up to him alot and he helped him out soo much.
Everything is gonna be alright. Trust me. When times get hard, just learn from it and do what you can do. Not gonna lie, life can be a bitch sometimes but truthfully life is about lessons and teaching what you’ve learned to the next person. That’s how we grow. I love you Mac and I appreciate the stories and flows. You were a real one! 🍻🙏
Thankfully we're getting his 2020 album, the companion to Swimming/ the completion of Swimming in Circles.. He can continue resting in peace knowing how much he meant to us :)
2020 still repping Mac💪🏾”Swimming” is album of the decade💯only artist who I ever felt a connection with through music🤞🏾this album is fuckin vibe and you be a fool to skip any fuckin song✌🏾like I said album of the fuckin. Decade hope I see yu in mi afterlife😇 #LongLiveMacMiller #GOAT #GoneToSoon #Swimming #Classic
My brother and I always bonded with music. He knew I loved Mac, but I refused to listen to Swimming or Circles after Mac died. But he was so adamant about me listening to this song so I finally did. I listened to it again when I was trying to make a Spotify playlist and texted him to ask him what else I should add; he had died when I was texting him, listening to this song that he loved. I found out a few hours later and they let me play this at his funeral. I miss him more than anything else in this world. I feel so lonely without him and this song will probably always make me sob now… hopefully one day it will be “in a good way”. RIP Cody. I miss you more than you will ever know.
Miller is releasing absolute heat right now. Dude is underrated as a complete musician. The use of melody and instrumentation is way above his peers. The growth is crazy RIP Music aside you could just tell Mac was a good dude. Celebrity/musician deaths usually don’t impact me the way this one has. So sad.
I don’t know how to channel these emotions right now... I feel like I lost one of my best friends, I’ve never met you but have so many memories with your music and it’s gotten me through some of the hardest times in my life. We’ll never know what really was going through your head but I hope your at peace. Love you forever Mac I’ll be bumping your music till I’m 85
Aye man. Im in the same boat. Hes helped me through alot. And if you keep goin through some shit just put him on again. Or you can message me . We all have demons.
It doesn’t all make sense. It was a cry for help and I think he could have OD but his house was clean and they couldn’t find what killed him exactly. It’s messed up self care listen to that song and he knows he was going out on September
I need to know if he somehow knew he was going to die like where is the evidence why was his house all cleaned up who is responsable for this death. Coulded he be aware of something that we didnt know? Was someone telling him his time was coming? And WHY DID NO FAMILY MEMBER HELPED HIM OR SAVED HIM like where were you when i needed you?
Listening to this song after his passing has me fucked up on so many levels. Thank you Mr Miller for helping me cope through the years of being a teen. They told me it only gets better..
It does get better, only if u take charge of your life tho. Trust me, if u strive for a beautiful life, it will come to you. Surround yourself with good people, find your purpose and just GO. And oh yeah, FUCK drugs
Who else cry listening to his song? This hit me hard everytime. It bring back when I was very, very, suicidal. & I really made up my mind to leave earth. Then I meet my wife after I ask God to plz bring someone to make me happy. If you don't want to see my face to face. & a month later. She walks in my classroom. I love you Mac Miller. I've been a fan since 2010/2011. Your dark, cheerful song help me A LOT.
@Junior Ruiz It's ah special thing, to have someone in yah life change it for the better. To show you their more to life then depression & happiness. You start realizing you living for MOMENT'S in your life time. I hope you remain happy.
Hey mac, when you see this. I just wanna say thank you. Thank you for the memories all the songs and albums and those awesome concerts you had. Ive always been a mac miller fan since day one, ever since nikes on my feet came out and kool aid frozen pizza days. RIP Brother, youre always been a inspiration to me. Ever. We love you -John
My regrets look just like text I shouldn't send And I got neighbors, they're more like strangers We could be friends I just need a way out of my head I'll do anything for a way out Of my head In my own way, this feel like living Some alternate reality And I was just drowning, but now I'm swimming Through stressful waters to relief Yeah, all the things I'd do To spend a little time in hell And what I won't tell you I'll prolly never even tell myself And don't you know that sunshine don't feel right When you inside all day I wish it was nice out, but it looked like rain Grey skies and I'm drifting, not living forever They told me it only gets better My regrets look just like text I shouldn't send And I got neighbor's, they more like strangers We could be friends I just need a way out of my head I'll do anything for a way out Of my head
I don’t think you ever really die until the vibrations and the waves you made in the world finally die out too. Like when you throw a rock into a pond and it disappears below the surface never to be seen again, but the ripples it made on the surface spread out and maybe reach the whole surface of the water. To me, it’s like that with Mac. He may have left the world physically but the vibrations he made live on, and his music still positively impacts all of us still to this day. He lives on through his music. RIP Malcom 💙
In some cultures they say you have two deaths. The first is when you physically pass. And the second is the last time someone utters your name. Sad stuff
i had a dream the other night, after having a spiritual experience. i saw mac in physical form but it was his spirit speaking post-death. he said he knew he was going to die. so when i read this.. i started crying because i agree. I don't think he wanted to die, but this album is a goodbye letter to his fans.
"I was drowning but now I'm swimming" that line from mac meant so much to me because I'm in mental health recovery and I listened to this song and it cured me. Why the line meant to me: I was in mental health recovery battling depression and having suicidal thoughts. I was bullied many times through my life through highschool and lost friends and some friends betrayed me and my life was depressing and I didn't feel like living anymore and then felt like ending it all but got took to mental health help and felt better. I was drowning in suicidal thoughts but now I'm swimming out of the thoughts. I thank the world for giving me a good life and I got out of recovery. R.I.P mac miller. 🙏😇
Never looked at Mac as a celebrity. Saw him for exactly who he was. An amazing soul. I remember being 14 listening to his first mixtape and watched him grow through the years, through the ups and downs, I always believed that Mac was where he needed to be. This album speaks so many volumes on his legacy. This was Mac. Loved this dude. Sucks the way life goes man
I wish I could have recognized that he was much deeper before he passed. I looked at him as some other celebrity, now listening to these songs makes me realize that he was very relatable in an emotional sense to many of my peers
Thank you RM💜, a very sad song reflecting Miller's mood at that time. The song "Circles" is even more nostalgic. As if he had a premonition of what would happen next. Rest in peace Mac.
My dads currently fighting covid 19 and idk if he’ll make it. They gave us almost no hope and in this time of pain, this song helps me so much. May god bless all of you
In absolutely no disrespect to Mac, I've never chosen to listen to his music. Not for any reason other than it wasn't for me. I heard this song for the first time yesterday and I couldn't help but stop dead in my tracks and listen so deeply that the world had stopped for 3 minutes. I don't know you Mac, but I felt every single word of this song in my soul. Rest easy..
I’ve never looked closely at the imagery in the background. It’s all heavy symbolism on Mac’s life habits, thoughts and desires. Damn. What a true artist you are Mac. RIP.
@@Non-Normal_Channel because you are being insensitive maybe, people want to think that their loved ones are happy especially if they suffered a lot. I'm atheist btw
I was listening to this song when I learned Mac had died. It was a punch to the gut making me go numb. He was a truly talented artist who carved his path in a genre oversaturated with pretenders. His vocal delivery, lyricism, instrumentation, and overall style were distinctive and progressive. I like to think this album was him circling back to the influences of his youth to show he can stay fresh while continuing to evolve. Rest easy.
Listening to this in my car after learning of his death two hours ago and I'm crying because the world lost a good artist today. R.I.P. Mac Miller. You are so loved and you gave us so much.
Not gonna lie i was home when i heard this news. two friends each hit me up telling me the news. it sucks how people go through stuff and lose it in the end. im sitting here in my car dead tearing up to this. it hits harder knowing hes gone. all we can do is pray and keep those we love close. have a blessed day whoever is reading this. rip mac miller.
damn this one really hits home, never did i think i'd really be this hurt from the passing of a rapper. An all around amazing artist and humble human being.
The parents and the "friends" aren't taking the time out to intervene. Especially in the culture he was in...It's cool or "just part of being a musician"...It's sad.
Overdoses surpass automobile deaths now in this country. Mac was 3 years younger then me but the Dope game is no joke with people my age. It hit us the worst. Worse then the crack epidemic in the 80s. We will look back at this 30 years from now and ash why we didn't do more.
My brother had an accidental fentanyl overdose just like Mac. My brother was addicted to cocaine and he didn’t know it was laced and got killed cuz of it. I miss him so much. Mac reminds me of him.
I will always regret becoming a fan after his passing. I always knew of him but never listened to his music as often. Now in 2021, I can honestly say that this song will always help me find myself and it will help me appreciate this young soul for blessing our lives with his music
I grew up listening to Mac. His music got me through high school. I rmm always sticking up for him when ppl said he was trash. Been riding since 2011. Rest easy Mac 🖤
Same here, all my friends constantly dogging on me for always jamming to Mac back in the day with kids and blue slide park. I just constantly stuck with "Mac is a genius in a different way and honestly I think you have to have intelligence in order to get his music and you have to know what hurt is in order to feel his feeling" watching movies with the sound off.. faces. This album 'swimming is Mac's last message to us before he left and I'm always gonna be grateful for how he affected me in high school and after. Mac was too good in everyway. Ahead of his time.
same here. thank you for sharing this. Macs death has been hard on me because, just like you, i started riding with him in 2011 which was his ‘Blue Slide Park’ album. his music got me through hard times because i learned to just ‘smile back.’
Th. C , yeah man I know. I got so nostalgic last night cause it just brought back so many memories about carefree times and just growing up. I never cared what anyone thought. I was always jamming. His music is different, it always was different. Before he was Easy Mac with the cheesy raps and he just grew so much as an artist. It was like watching magic happen. He was honestly so talented. I wish he had known the huge impact he was on our lives. Even as KIDS.
I just cry when I hear this shit bro cause it’s like a song for life it self just a simple song that break you down . Ion kno how I came onto this song but this song helps me get all the pain out I’ve been hiding for years or months when I just sit here and listen . My whole body just get goosebumps when I hear “I jus need a way out of my head I’ll do anything for a way out “
Merry Christmas Mac. It’s 12:07 12/25/18. I’m sitting in my apartment at home just making music but still having you in the back of my mind. You never knew me but I grew up with you and you were one of my closest friends. I miss you bro. Rest well tonight. - Clay DeMarco
@@CantMuffinthere’s only one of your hand prints in the world my friend you are irreplaceable and God has a plan for each and every human in this world it’s up to us to step up to his calling remember that
“I’ve got neighbors they’re more like strangers we could be friends” is such a special line to me I spent my teenage/Y.A. life feeling lonely and coping with it unhealthily. After accumulating a lot of shame and repressed emotions as a result, I felt a lack of interest in people whilst at the same time craving intimacy with them. Mac really understood this emotion.
I listened to this on the day of his death like the exact moment the news story popped up. I was so speechless and I silently said “why.........” at the end of the news story and the song I’ve been listening to him since Kids.
i feel like he's just like Pac dont get me wrong they both different style but they had this charming, undying energy and no dull moment. they always had smiles in their faces and always seemed too excited. Iconic personalities
Showed my 55 year-old dad this song and he said it's one of the best songs he's heard in a long time. He finally understood my love for Mac. He said it made him want to cry
I am 61 year-old and I confirm : it's one of the best songs I have heard. A very sensitive artist. I am so sad when I hear his songs, to see how his life were so short and maybe not so happy. Scuse me for my english, I write you from France.
He was an original artist... didnt just jump in on the fad of hip hop for money the way many do..he knew what good hip hop was... can tell that just by his “street struck” tat.
Legend, you guided a whole generation with you music, you teached us how hard life can be but also the beauty in it, the reality of it, the importance of dreaming and to always be ourself . You are a hero, a role model and forever an Idol. Thanks for all this amazing years where we could find comfort with you and your art, for sharing your life in your music and for all the passion you always gave. I will miss you forever, love you. MOST DOPE
This album has a whole different vibe now that hes gone. Its like he knew he was going to pass. Or he planned it. Between this video and self care. Can't just be a coincidence that his last music video of so many was him in a coffin... God I miss you Mac. Feel like I lost another friend.
I can’t believe I have to live 60plus years of my life without mac. 😞💔 I also feel like I lost a friend. I get all teary when I listen to his last album. I wish he didn’t leave us. Rest In Peace mac
Bro.. It just doesnt seem real... Was suppose to see him in Chicago. First rap concert last year was him and it was top 3 best expereince of my life. Been bumping his music for over 10 years now.. It just feels like he is going to come out with some new banger shit next week... Love you eazy mac.. With the cheesy raps..
Swimming's 3 year anniversary was a couple days ago, and I saw a comment on an Instagram post that I think perfectly describes this amazing project. It was something along the lines of "Swimming taught me that life is a constant, non-linear journey of finding, accepting, and loving yourself." I feel like that's so accurate and beautiful and I think Circles adds to that to say that it is a struggle that you'll constantly face, and within that struggle of finding, accepting, and loving yourself you will come across many beautiful and challenging things, but in the end, it's all a cycle where you can't give up or you'll drown, the only way to go is back to where you started. And I think that perfectly describes what every conscious and self-aware person's life is like. We all have our struggles, and it is up to us to use our self-awareness, imagination, independent will, and conscience to change. We have the power to make the world a better place like Mac did for so many of us. Anyways I hope whoever is reading can take something good away from this comment. I was thinking about this for a couple days and thought it could help somebody in this comment section. Thank you so much for reading, and remember you can always change. You have power.
No joke my mom just left my room after talking to me tonight since I’d been crying and falling back into my deep depression for days. All my friends are off to college for year 2 and I decided to stay home again. I regret everything. Been listening to this song all night long and for some random reason I decided to watch the music video(which i never do). I was meant to find this. I can always change. I cant give up on myself or life anymore. Thank you.
@@mjac-hc9wm Im glad you talked to your mom because talking ALWAYS helps and it's so important, and ur mom is awesome for listening and giving you the psychological air to be open. Your mom is a huge blessing you have right there, and I'm sure she will be right behind you through your bright future. Thank you for replying to my comment because this really just made my day and I'm getting chills hahaha. I'm rooting for you, and I know you got this, you will do such amazing things. You are in control of everything. One thing that really helped me escape my own depression was a book called the 7 Habits. It's an amazing read and it's pretty short, and a lot of the language I use is from that book. It's not for everyone but it's just a suggestion :) Take care man, I'm thinking of you and praying for you.
I feel like the lyrics “I just need a way out from my head, I’ll do anything for a way out” is so overlooked.. theres so much meaning to those lyrics it breaks my heart
@@SaintxFate he would do anything for a way out of his own head because when you have depression your worst weapon is your own mind and thoughs, not the others.
my older brother put me onto blue slide park when i was in middle school now. im 25 now and my older brother tragically passed away a month and a half ago. he always loved mac miller and when he found out mac miller passed he was visible shook for at least a week man. i hope they up theyre kickin it now but fr, im grateful for both of them
MAC! REST EASY. I can't believe your gone man. I've bumped your music daily for years and I probably still will. R.I.P to a friend I've never met. I fucking love you dude...
This song is my go to song when I’m feeling down, depression is so hard but mac makes me feel better, even more so then my meds. This song just makes me feel like everything is gonna be okay
anyone who doesn't see Mac Miller's genius, doesn't understand music! He was one of the greats. 'Swimming'' is pure genius! Music's about emotion and it's so clever, celebrates a collage of other artists, and melodically and intellectually it's unparalleled by many albums, however classic! plus no one talks about mac's production, instrumentational and melodic genius. His album was criminally underpraised, and he doesn't seem to get enough props. To me it reads like the realest diary of one's life and struggles I've ever heard. He was a poet and should be remembered as a true Kurt Cobain-Lil Peep style cultural icon. Mac had raw talent and integrity like few other artists in hip hop at the moment! RIP Mac Miller - I hope in years to come your work will receive the credit it deserves instead of 3* reviews in the Guardian xx
Famous last 'public' words : "I can't wait to go on tour" Well, you're touring heaven now. I hope you find what you're looking for and I hope it's enough. I guess you finally found a way out of your head. I miss you. RIP Mac Miller.
As a Older Hip Hop Head I was devastated when Tupac died.. But I honestly am more upset about Mac's passing because he wasn't trying to be hard or Gangsta. He was just a Troubled Young Man who needed help! His passing has helped me deal with my depression and I promise to keep striving forward to make the rest of my life the best of my life!!! R.I.P. Bro
Mac I never met you in person but your music has helped me get by for as long as I remember, I cant help but feel grief somehow and I moved on since your death but there are so many times I think about you and listen to you on repeat, you spoke so much truth, some of my own in there and I cant help but cry, my heart feels that shit it hurts, you're really gone... RIP my guy
Its hard to search ‘’mac miller come back to earth” knowing he will never come back, i thank him for helping me through the darkest days of my life, he’s alive to me mentally every time i press play, i love you Malcom Mccormick and everything you done for us as core fans.
30 years old and first time Im actually having emotion for someone passing away that I never knew. Rest in paradise and hope the nikes are on your feet brother
bro the nikes on your feet part got me in the feels man, i grew up listening to songs like nikes on my feet, guy was only a few years older than me and the songs were so chill and vibesy, can't believe he took his own life. RIP my brother.
What I Love about Mac Miller is that you can literally feel what he’s going through in life with each project he releases. Also you can sense the growth in each album. I hope I’m making sense. You can always count on Mac to release something different. Not in a bad way, but different as in he’s growing. And he’s never scared to show us his little bit of growth in each album or mixtape he puts out. I fucking love it.
Absolutely agreed. everything about him gives me shivers, his growth and style maturing over the years has been such a journey to experience. I dont look forward to someone releasing a new album as much as I do for Mac!

My 21 year old son sent this song to me from sober living in March. It scared the hell out of me. I knew nothing about Mac Miller. When I learned more about his passing I was more scared. Immediately asked him if he was ok. He said he was and just wanted to share. We called the staff at the facility to keep an eye on him.
Five weeks later we got the call he died from Xanax laced with fentanyl.
I listen to this song a lot.
A beautiful sound with words that tell me how Mac and my son were tortured.
Sorry for your loss sir I am sure he is in a better place God needs good people
man
I struggled with Xanax and my cousin with fentanyl I thought she was stupid not caring if she died messing w that stuff. and I thought I was in the clear because I hadn’t heard it been in Xanax but it took your baby boy and so many more im sure this isn’t what you want ti hear but this little comment and his story will stick with me and I know it will help me not relapse with Xanax.

💖💭💎🏆🌍🖼🚪⏳☄
That's dope. So true though. Wish I could have done the same.
It's a shame people don't tell people stuff like that while they're still alive. It doesn't change anything when you're already dead.
@@TheMiig1513 Mac Miller actually stated that a kid told him something like this although Mac was still doing drugs in front of him. The kid said he looked up to him alot and he helped him out soo much.
That's great to hear
This song makes me feel like everything is gonna be okay even when it’s not
It will be
just hope for the best my friend.
You'll be ok :)
Everything is gonna be alright. Trust me. When times get hard, just learn from it and do what you can do. Not gonna lie, life can be a bitch sometimes but truthfully life is about lessons and teaching what you’ve learned to the next person. That’s how we grow. I love you Mac and I appreciate the stories and flows. You were a real one! 🍻🙏

I hope His mom is doing ok
i hope that too, death isnt an easy thing to deal with and it can affect one's life a lot, ruining relationships, and just life in general

My brother and I always bonded with music. He knew I loved Mac, but I refused to listen to Swimming or Circles after Mac died. But he was so adamant about me listening to this song so I finally did. I listened to it again when I was trying to make a Spotify playlist and texted him to ask him what else I should add; he had died when I was texting him, listening to this song that he loved. I found out a few hours later and they let me play this at his funeral. I miss him more than anything else in this world. I feel so lonely without him and this song will probably always make me sob now… hopefully one day it will be “in a good way”. RIP Cody. I miss you more than you will ever know.
Wow, I felt this. My condolences 💕
Omg…. Sorry for your loss
So sorry for you loss :/
God, that's horrible. I'm sorry for your loss.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Miller is releasing absolute heat right now.
Dude is underrated as a complete musician.
The use of melody and instrumentation is way above his peers.
The growth is crazy
RIP
Music aside you could just tell Mac was a good dude. Celebrity/musician deaths usually don’t impact me the way this one has. So sad.
Wolf Creek Boys he’s not just your ordinary rapper, he’s a musical artist who’s art is constantly evolving
Noble Vagabond for sure. Stoked to see him active again.
mark shamet self care is top notch
I feel some peep
mark shamet shoot inertia is fire as well in a different way
He left us this piece of art and I couldn't be more grateful. RIP Mac.
god speed definetely his deepest i have to say
420 my friends, stay medicated.
I don’t know how to channel these emotions right now... I feel like I lost one of my best friends, I’ve never met you but have so many memories with your music and it’s gotten me through some of the hardest times in my life. We’ll never know what really was going through your head but I hope your at peace. Love you forever Mac I’ll be bumping your music till I’m 85
Big facts 💔
S a d
I relate so bad
Aye man. Im in the same boat. Hes helped me through alot. And if you keep goin through some shit just put him on again. Or you can message me . We all have demons.
damn..it feels so unreal.
Bruh this album was a cry for help, grew up with listening to Mac, Let your soul rest in power Mac
Going back and listening, you realize it really was.
Seriously its so fucking sad man
Bryan Garcia the only thing we can hope for at this point is that he’s at peace.
It doesn’t all make sense. It was a cry for help and I think he could have OD but his house was clean and they couldn’t find what killed him exactly. It’s messed up self care listen to that song and he knows he was going out on September
I need to know if he somehow knew he was going to die like where is the evidence why was his house all cleaned up who is responsable for this death. Coulded he be aware of something that we didnt know? Was someone telling him his time was coming? And WHY DID NO FAMILY MEMBER HELPED HIM OR SAVED HIM like where were you when i needed you?
My biggest regret in my life is not seeing Mac live.
Agreed
Goddamn right
Hell yeah
I know it probably doesn't help, but when he was doing the good am tour I saw him in Columbus ohio, the most turnt shit ever
Mee too 😭😭😭💯
“They told me it only gets better”
Whoever needs to hear this, truthfully, you are loved.
Thank you brother 🙏🏾
it doesnt get better you just get used to it over time
@nigg boii Love you guys so much, keep swimming
I hope so bro

It's crazy to see how he started his career with such upbeat fun music to how crazy and painful life is. Rip Mac
Well he did a lot of drugs.
His pain is of his own hand.
Felt💔

Listening to this song after his passing has me fucked up on so many levels. Thank you Mr Miller for helping me cope through the years of being a teen.
They told me it only gets better..
same ....
Rubs no, it gets worse. Good luck
How does this help you? It’s just a song
It does get better, only if u take charge of your life tho. Trust me, if u strive for a beautiful life, it will come to you. Surround yourself with good people, find your purpose and just GO. And oh yeah, FUCK drugs
@@xXArseni true that fuck drugs!!
It’s your Anniversary. We love and miss you Mac.
Sure do :(
He did September 7th not August 7th.
@@lesliecabreja7 it's for the swimming album. This was posted aug 3rd. That's the same day the album was released.
Have you quoted that from logic ysiv

This song is hauntingly beautiful to listen to now.. RIP Mac, you’ve touched so many hearts
always was. still the same to me. Rest in peace to one of the greatest artists of our time; Rest In Peace to my idol.
Agreed.

Always thinking of Mac.
all these rapperfs = past. Future = gomunkul6
Who else cry listening to his song? This hit me hard everytime. It bring back when I was very, very, suicidal. & I really made up my mind to leave earth. Then I meet my wife after I ask God to plz bring someone to make me happy. If you don't want to see my face to face. & a month later. She walks in my classroom. I love you Mac Miller. I've been a fan since 2010/2011. Your dark, cheerful song help me A LOT.

Hey mac, when you see this. I just wanna say thank you. Thank you for the memories all the songs and albums and those awesome concerts you had.

No disrespect but how tf is he gonna see this?
I don’t think I’m sad or depressed, but why am I balling my eyes out listening to this? Rest in peace, Mac
well nowadays only rea'l prodigy gomunkul 6 can be close to Mac Miller

O Jackson me too
same here bro
this one hits me hard too bro
@Im a Salty Spurs Fan its about being addicted.
He couldnt admit to himself completely that what he was doing was a death sentence
IMA LET YOU FINISH.. BUT MAC MILLER HAD THE BEST ALBUM OF THE YEAR!!!!! CARDI WHO?!
Bahaha! Word JB! He should've won it but thats how it goes....I miss him though...
My regrets look just like text I shouldn't send
And I got neighbors, they're more like strangers
We could be friends
I just need a way out of my head
I'll do anything for a way out
Of my head
In my own way, this feel like living
Some alternate reality
And I was just drowning, but now I'm swimming
Through stressful waters to relief
Yeah, all the things I'd do
To spend a little time in hell
And what I won't tell you
I'll prolly never even tell myself
And don't you know that sunshine don't feel right
When you inside all day
I wish it was nice out, but it looked like rain
Grey skies and I'm drifting, not living forever
They told me it only gets better
My regrets look just like text I shouldn't send
And I got neighbor's, they more like strangers
We could be friends
I just need a way out of my head
I'll do anything for a way out
Of my head
He don't need it, is better have people that listen to his album time nd time again,not the same as Cardi
JBfromtheGB stop trying to bring down Cardi, Mac’s family said if he didn’t win they’d want Cardi to win and she did, she won for him.

I don’t think you ever really die until the vibrations and the waves you made in the world finally die out too. Like when you throw a rock into a pond and it disappears below the surface never to be seen again, but the ripples it made on the surface spread out and maybe reach the whole surface of the water. To me, it’s like that with Mac. He may have left the world physically but the vibrations he made live on, and his music still positively impacts all of us still to this day. He lives on through his music. RIP Malcom 💙
That is the first ever emotional statement that has ever made me think that’s some deep shit damn also
YOU DIDNT HAVE TO CUT ME OFF
In some cultures they say you have two deaths. The first is when you physically pass. And the second is the last time someone utters your name. Sad stuff
that made me cry.
I wish I could go but wouldn’t do my family like that , love ‘em too much Mac helped me beat addiction his music is forever
@@lukeanderson3074I believe in this
Love you always for the memories Mac, thank you
“Don’t ya know that sunshine don’t feel right when your inside all day”
So true 😕💔
In a line on his first album (BSP) he talks about Eternal sunshine...
Breaks my heart that it came to this 💔
(song: of the soul)
MP isn’t it a reference to the movie Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
bella • most likely, he mentioned before that he loves the score for that movie and it inspired him for some of his music
Nick Cannon I’ve lived this truth so when Mac said it it hit every inch of my soul
This album is his goodbye letter to all his fans. Thanks for the music over the years. Until next time, rest easy Mac.
S
so not true... he didn't want to die
Lion i don’t think we wanted to die either, but i do think he was comfortable with the idea of death. if it happened, then it happened.
i had a dream the other night, after having a spiritual experience. i saw mac in physical form but it was his spirit speaking post-death. he said he knew he was going to die. so when i read this.. i started crying because i agree. I don't think he wanted to die, but this album is a goodbye letter to his fans.
Jordan Ortiz preach bro
"I was drowning but now I'm swimming" that line from mac meant so much to me because I'm in mental health recovery and I listened to this song and it cured me. Why the line meant to me: I was in mental health recovery battling depression and having suicidal thoughts. I was bullied many times through my life through highschool and lost friends and some friends betrayed me and my life was depressing and I didn't feel like living anymore and then felt like ending it all but got took to mental health help and felt better. I was drowning in suicidal thoughts but now I'm swimming out of the thoughts. I thank the world for giving me a good life and I got out of recovery. R.I.P mac miller. 🙏😇

RIP Mac. Thanks for everything man. Objects in the mirror brother
First x in June now Mac in September wtf man why are we losing legends this year
Never looked at Mac as a celebrity. Saw him for exactly who he was. An amazing soul. I remember being 14 listening to his first mixtape and watched him grow through the years, through the ups and downs, I always believed that Mac was where he needed to be. This album speaks so many volumes on his legacy. This was Mac. Loved this dude. Sucks the way life goes man
He put his life inside his ink pen,
Michael Chasteen Well Said , Have A Good One Brotha
I wish I could have recognized that he was much deeper before he passed. I looked at him as some other celebrity, now listening to these songs makes me realize that he was very relatable in an emotional sense to many of my peers
Love you for this
Thank you RM💜, a very sad song reflecting Miller's mood at that time. The song "Circles" is even more nostalgic. As if he had a premonition of what would happen next. Rest in peace Mac.
My dads currently fighting covid 19 and idk if he’ll make it. They gave us almost no hope and in this time of pain, this song helps me so much. May god bless all of you
💗 💖 💘 💝 💟
I hope your dad survived
hope he’s okay 🖤
Update man??
Hope he’s good
Officially one year since you’ve been gone. You’re music has helped me in so many ways. We miss you Mac
In absolutely no disrespect to Mac, I've never chosen to listen to his music. Not for any reason other than it wasn't for me. I heard this song for the first time yesterday and I couldn't help but stop dead in my tracks and listen so deeply that the world had stopped for 3 minutes. I don't know you Mac, but I felt every single word of this song in my soul. Rest easy..
i cant relate more
Listen to more mac is a genius on another level
I highly recommend listening more
i've always skipped his songs but then this song came on and i instantly loved it
Exact same thing for me. I was into different music back then but I came across it and now it's one of the best albums I've ever heard
I’ve never looked closely at the imagery in the background. It’s all heavy symbolism on Mac’s life habits, thoughts and desires. Damn. What a true artist you are Mac. RIP.
I really hope whatever happens in the afterlife makes Mac feel better.
there is no afterlife

Mac Miller's last message to the world was to get to know your neighbors. I'll honor that. Imagine how that could change the world.
Jordan Bowman message* but not to be a stickler just seeing if you will edit it 😉
Alot of his music is going to have more meaning now that he has sadly passed...

Im still crying from his departure :'(
Same bro. Same :(
Maaan fr bro
Seems like I break down once a week about it
@@makomachamp9647 havent gone a day without thinming of him.
I was listening to this song when I learned Mac had died. It was a punch to the gut making me go numb. He was a truly talented artist who carved his path in a genre oversaturated with pretenders. His vocal delivery, lyricism, instrumentation, and overall style were distinctive and progressive. I like to think this album was him circling back to the influences of his youth to show he can stay fresh while continuing to evolve. Rest easy.
Beautifully spoken , 🙏
rest in peace. you may be gone but you will never be forgotten mac.
hoping you could help me
Queen B true like damn why he take his life aways
Listening to this in my car after learning of his death two hours ago and I'm crying because the world lost a good artist today. R.I.P. Mac Miller. You are so loved and you gave us so much.
Not gonna lie i was home when i heard this news. two friends each hit me up telling me the news. it sucks how people go through stuff and lose it in the end. im sitting here in my car dead tearing up to this. it hits harder knowing hes gone. all we can do is pray and keep those we love close. have a blessed day whoever is reading this. rip mac miller.
Sarah Rose Covey fuck man......this got me crying more
damn this one really hits home, never did i think i'd really be this hurt from the passing of a rapper. An all around amazing artist and humble human being.
Yea same man. I was hoping to see him this year. ):
Neither did I 😢😢
first, x, now mac, who's next? jeez, we're loosing the biggest..
Don't cry because he's gone...
Smile because he lived.
R.I.P mac 🙏
It's crazy how so many young people are dying from depression or addiction... this is literally so heartbreaking
The parents and the "friends" aren't taking the time out to intervene. Especially in the culture he was in...It's cool or "just part of being a musician"...It's sad.
I don't think he OD'ed himself honestly.
Overdoses surpass automobile deaths now in this country. Mac was 3 years younger then me but the Dope game is no joke with people my age. It hit us the worst. Worse then the crack epidemic in the 80s. We will look back at this 30 years from now and ash why we didn't do more.
My brother had an accidental fentanyl overdose just like Mac. My brother was addicted to cocaine and he didn’t know it was laced and got killed cuz of it. I miss him so much. Mac reminds me of him.
I will always regret becoming a fan after his passing. I always knew of him but never listened to his music as often. Now in 2021, I can honestly say that this song will always help me find myself and it will help me appreciate this young soul for blessing our lives with his music
never regret that! his music found you at the perfect time and now it’s with you forever
Damn, you missed out. Rip
🤍
My regrets look just like text I shouldn't send
Saaaaame
I grew up listening to Mac. His music got me through high school. I rmm always sticking up for him when ppl said he was trash. Been riding since 2011. Rest easy Mac 🖤
Micheal Veloz same bruh, this shit must hurt you a lot huh. Rest easy mac and stay positive man you’ll be good🖤
Same here, all my friends constantly dogging on me for always jamming to Mac back in the day with kids and blue slide park. I just constantly stuck with "Mac is a genius in a different way and honestly I think you have to have intelligence in order to get his music and you have to know what hurt is in order to feel his feeling" watching movies with the sound off.. faces. This album 'swimming is Mac's last message to us before he left and I'm always gonna be grateful for how he affected me in high school and after. Mac was too good in everyway. Ahead of his time.
same here. thank you for sharing this. Macs death has been hard on me because, just like you, i started riding with him in 2011 which was his ‘Blue Slide Park’ album. his music got me through hard times because i learned to just ‘smile back.’
Th. C , yeah man I know. I got so nostalgic last night cause it just brought back so many memories about carefree times and just growing up. I never cared what anyone thought. I was always jamming. His music is different, it always was different. Before he was Easy Mac with the cheesy raps and he just grew so much as an artist. It was like watching magic happen. He was honestly so talented. I wish he had known the huge impact he was on our lives. Even as KIDS.
Micheal Veloz same here since the #machead days lol 💕
I just cry when I hear this shit bro cause it’s like a song for life it self just a simple song that break you down . Ion kno how I came onto this song but this song helps me get all the pain out I’ve been hiding for years or months when I just sit here and listen . My whole body just get goosebumps when I hear “I jus need a way out of my head I’ll do anything for a way out “
real shit man

I made one of my most proud art pieces to this song
“I’ve got neighbors they’re more like strangers we could be friends” is such a special line to me
I spent my teenage/Y.A. life feeling lonely and coping with it unhealthily. After accumulating a lot of shame and repressed emotions as a result, I felt a lack of interest in people whilst at the same time craving intimacy with them. Mac really understood this emotion.

The last 43 second's is like watching the end of his story...
Rest in Peace Malcolm

Yea,Tho it's peace but ok.....

Swimming's 3 year anniversary was a couple days ago, and I saw a comment on an Instagram post that I think perfectly describes this amazing project. It was something along the lines of "Swimming taught me that life is a constant, non-linear journey of finding, accepting, and loving yourself." I feel like that's so accurate and beautiful and I think Circles adds to that to say that it is a struggle that you'll constantly face, and within that struggle of finding, accepting, and loving yourself you will come across many beautiful and challenging things, but in the end, it's all a cycle where you can't give up or you'll drown, the only way to go is back to where you started. And I think that perfectly describes what every conscious and self-aware person's life is like. We all have our struggles, and it is up to us to use our self-awareness, imagination, independent will, and conscience to change. We have the power to make the world a better place like Mac did for so many of us.
Anyways I hope whoever is reading can take something good away from this comment. I was thinking about this for a couple days and thought it could help somebody in this comment section. Thank you so much for reading, and remember you can always change. You have power.
No joke my mom just left my room after talking to me tonight since I’d been crying and falling back into my deep depression for days. All my friends are off to college for year 2 and I decided to stay home again. I regret everything. Been listening to this song all night long and for some random reason I decided to watch the music video(which i never do). I was meant to find this. I can always change. I cant give up on myself or life anymore. Thank you.
@@mjac-hc9wm Im glad you talked to your mom because talking ALWAYS helps and it's so important, and ur mom is awesome for listening and giving you the psychological air to be open. Your mom is a huge blessing you have right there, and I'm sure she will be right behind you through your bright future. Thank you for replying to my comment because this really just made my day and I'm getting chills hahaha. I'm rooting for you, and I know you got this, you will do such amazing things. You are in control of everything.
One thing that really helped me escape my own depression was a book called the 7 Habits. It's an amazing read and it's pretty short, and a lot of the language I use is from that book. It's not for everyone but it's just a suggestion :)
Take care man, I'm thinking of you and praying for you.

I've tried to break this down so much. I can't conclude whether he's talking about his drug addiction or THEM.
@@SaintxFate he would do anything for a way out of his own head because when you have depression your worst weapon is your own mind and thoughs, not the others.

All of his lyrics… this song is my all time favorite..
@@SaintxFate hes definitely talking about mostly his depression and how he copes with it (drugs) only making it worse
my older brother put me onto blue slide park when i was in middle school now. im 25 now and my older brother tragically passed away a month and a half ago. he always loved mac miller and when he found out mac miller passed he was visible shook for at least a week man. i hope they up theyre kickin it now but fr, im grateful for both of them
MAC! REST EASY. I can't believe your gone man. I've bumped your music daily for years and I probably still will. R.I.P to a friend I've never met. I fucking love you dude...

This got me like 💔😢🙏
it’s wild how he’s evolved since his early work 🌊
Hidden Oasis so much to. From high school days to now, its amazing hours much he's changed
Bruh it's like you're new...
Out in wichita kansas smoking meth with all the locals asking them to teach me how to yodel
His old self was better imo. I don't like all this new depressing/sad/slow music. I miss his party turn up songs he used to make.
Hidden Oasis I like his early work way better than his new music, my favorite album is Blue Slide park, and I still listen to it today

This song is my go to song when I’m feeling down, depression is so hard but mac makes me feel better, even more so then my meds. This song just makes me feel like everything is gonna be okay
anyone who doesn't see Mac Miller's genius, doesn't understand music! He was one of the greats. 'Swimming'' is pure genius! Music's about emotion and it's so clever, celebrates a collage of other artists, and melodically and intellectually it's unparalleled by many albums, however classic! plus no one talks about mac's production, instrumentational and melodic genius. His album was criminally underpraised, and he doesn't seem to get enough props. To me it reads like the realest diary of one's life and struggles I've ever heard. He was a poet and should be remembered as a true Kurt Cobain-Lil Peep style cultural icon. Mac had raw talent and integrity like few other artists in hip hop at the moment! RIP Mac Miller - I hope in years to come your work will receive the credit it deserves instead of 3* reviews in the Guardian xx
Real shit bro. Swimming is a Master piece.
Fuck lil peep Mac deserves better then him.
@@dalegribble9679 obviously not much achievement in your life or you would understand being compared to somebody not even your peer.
Rest In Peace Peep and Mac. True Poets. Sad times in hip hop.
Man this last album is so heartbreaking now that he's gone
xVortex Fusionz honestly 😪
Famous last 'public' words : "I can't wait to go on tour"
Well, you're touring heaven now. I hope you find what you're looking for and I hope it's enough. I guess you finally found a way out of your head. I miss you. RIP Mac Miller.
All of them are now.
As a Older Hip Hop Head I was devastated when Tupac died.. But I honestly am more upset about Mac's passing because he wasn't trying to be hard or Gangsta. He was just a Troubled Young Man who needed help! His passing has helped me deal with my depression and I promise to keep striving forward to make the rest of my life the best of my life!!!
R.I.P. Bro
I'm still on this planet because of mac.
Keep ya Head up
well said homie, stay up

I dont think we should compare deaths to one another the deaths were both amazingly tragic and both should be remembered loved and cherished
Mac I never met you in person but your music has helped me get by for as long as I remember, I cant help but feel grief somehow and I moved on since your death but there are so many times I think about you and listen to you on repeat, you spoke so much truth, some of my own in there and I cant help but cry, my heart feels that shit it hurts, you're really gone... RIP my guy
Its hard to search ‘’mac miller come back to earth” knowing he will never come back, i thank him for helping me through the darkest days of my life, he’s alive to me mentally every time i press play, i love you Malcom Mccormick and everything you done for us as core fans.
30 years old and first time Im actually having emotion for someone passing away that I never knew. Rest in paradise and hope the nikes are on your feet brother
the nikes part is the best thing i read on the internet ever. ty!
VITA LOKO He committed suicide,he's in hell :/
@@notmyrealnamep9218 there is no such thing as hell,fucking wake up already
VITA LOKO actually pretty fkn sad you’ve never experienced that before.
bro the nikes on your feet part got me in the feels man, i grew up listening to songs like nikes on my feet, guy was only a few years older than me and the songs were so chill and vibesy, can't believe he took his own life. RIP my brother.
What I Love about Mac Miller is that you can literally feel what he’s going through in life with each project he releases. Also you can sense the growth in each album. I hope I’m making sense. You can always count on Mac to release something different. Not in a bad way, but different as in he’s growing. And he’s never scared to show us his little bit of growth in each album or mixtape he puts out. I fucking love it.
This!
Absolutely agreed. everything about him gives me shivers, his growth and style maturing over the years has been such a journey to experience. I dont look forward to someone releasing a new album as much as I do for Mac!
i know exactly what you mean. Great take
Toni L R.I.P. mac
I shamelessly tear up to this kid's music annually.
He hits differently. An individual ❤️
LYRICS-
My regrets look just like text I shouldn't send
And I got neighbors, they're more like strangers
We could be friends
I just need a way out of my head
I'll do anything for a way out
Of my head
In my own way, this feel like living
Some alternate reality
And I was just drowning, but now I'm swimming
Through stressful waters to relief
Yeah, all the things I'd do
To spend a little time in hell
And what I won't tell you
I'll prolly never even tell myself
And don't you know that sunshine don't feel right
When you inside all day
I wish it was nice out, but it looked like rain
Grey skies and I'm drifting, not living forever
They told me it only gets better
My regrets look just like text I shouldn't send
And I got neighbor's, they more like strangers
We could be friends
I just need a way out of my head
I'll do anything for a way out
Of my head
I hope wherever you are you aren't fighting anymore. RIP Mac
Sunshine really don’t feel right when you’re inside all day
Alexandra well said.
I wish it was nice out, but it looked like rain... 💔

This tune touches my soul. Thank u mac. You are missed
As someone who suffers from depression i agree
