Tom the verse “I’ve dug two graves for us my dear” comes from the confucius quote “before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves”
It’s not because he wants to kill her and himself it’s because he wants revenge on the world for taking her from him
Wow. X was a genius. Fuck that X is a genius!
@@cristophertapia9088 I said same thing after seeing this and came to the comments to see who else thought that. Haha
Correct;
Two graves: one for your current self and one for your past self.
@aayan jiwani thought that as well
I think this is one of X’s best songs. The lyrics can relate to anyone who feels like they need revenge and can’t let go of their past, and that’s why I think his story was so impactful. He was able to change right before his death and I think that was the reason his death was even more tragic than others. As soon as he overcame his past, it came back to kill him.
So sad!😢😢
When I was at my lowest I found his music so I studied him beginning to end and he is by far my biggest inspirations.
Agreed. Gone before his prime, his full potential
What's even amazing is the amount if styles and genres/moods he covered in the span of a few years. It's easy is randomise your approach but it's not easy to make every switch sound nice. He was literally one of the first "modern" artists I had a passion for and it backfired on me, on us. Died over a bag??!!!! Why? I still don't believe that motive to this day, there was more to his death
LLJ ❤️.
true
„So sad 😊👍“ broooooo 💀😂
4 year anniversary of this man's loss. His level of artistry at such a young age never ceases to astonish me. Actual friggin shame what happened dude...
100% man we all miss his music and can only imagine the art we'd have today if he was here
no one asked bro
@@817_alexx3 no one asked for your comment either bro
Karma for what he did to his ex girlfriend
@@servererror3170 You people disgust me. There are so many conflicting reports on that situation that it's literally impossible to say how much, if any of that is true.
Regardless, everyone had moved on, he was on a path of recovery, making amends, helping out his community, friends, and family. He was going out of his way to make life better for those around him. He was barely even an adult when he died (20 yrs old). He had a son on the way. He took accountability for his sins, was actively making efforts to improve himself, and was looking forward to a much brighter future.
You act so righteous, then go and celebrate the death of a man who was literally just driving out of a parking lot when he died. He had a checkered past but so fucking what? I hate Amber Heard for abusing Johnny Depp, but I don't want her to be killed, I want her to get help and genuinely atone for her mistreatment of Johnny. X was atoning. He was getting help. He was making the world a better place instead of dragging everyone else down with him.
So shut the fuck up and let him Rest in Peace like he deserves.
I read somewhere that the “dug two graves” part was from a old saying. “Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves.”
Yeah the path of revenge starts by digging two graves
Yeah the path of revenge starts by digging two graves
Yeah the path of revenge starts by digging two graves
This is also reference to Jocelyn Flores death
Or to bury his relationship, what you'd refer to as we, which are 2 people. Once you can bury the love, your free.
Love is in letting go
Revenge is a song that X wrote shortly after one of his close friends, Jocelyn Flores k*lled herself in an apartment whilst staying with X. He has 2 songs about her, this and the other being Jocelyn Flores. In saying he's dug 2 graves he's referring to the saying by philosopher Confucius (hope I spelt that correctly) "Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig 2 graves". The second grave being a grave for the world as he planned to take revenge out on the world over the injustice of Jocelyn's death. RIP X and Jocelyn 🕊
I think Guardian Angel was also a reference to her

Thanks so much!!!!😊👍
@@ReactionTherapyOfficial same!
@@ReactionTherapyOfficial hi
This is probably one of my most favourite songs, It sounds so different, amazing and especially the lyrics are just crazy good.
X, as well as this song in particular helped me to let go of so many habits, people, my past and just things that had nothing but objectively bad effects on my mental and physical health in general.
R.I.P. King
I sympathise with everything you just wrote
It is great to see an older person react to X's music cause most people just
turn there heads and go in the opposite direction. I'm glad people still respect and love X to this day.
RIP X
I drive for a taxi company in my city and have free reign over the music I play. One day I was jamming this song when I pulled up and picked up a lady probably in her mid 50s. She sat quietly for 5min while I took her down the street to a gas station. On the way back to her house she asks me "Say, who is this singing?" and "I REALLY loved that first song that was playing, is this the same guy?"(the song Changes was playing at this point). I was blown away thinking she would dismiss this as "weird young people music". So I sent her the links to his band and albums. Pretty cool stuff lool 😁
The X rabbit hole is crazy, my opinion on this one is that he’s talking about getting revenge on himself, his past self, but also that in his heart and mind he wanted to get revenge on those who wronged him (Geneva) but then goes to show that revenge isn’t the answer, but we can still feel it.
I was cheated on by my x and for 4 years I always dwell and deep down I want to get revenge, but will never actually act on it. It translates to your emotions so well
It’s about Jocelyn Flores my guy..
@@kosoraevans then why the album cover got her suicide note on it? Dummy. She was dead. This was about Jocelyn.
@@kosoraevans “XXXTentacion also dedicated the song "Revenge" to Flores shortly after she died. Flores' family members have had conflicting views on the use of her name as the song's title; some have felt touched and honored while others felt strongly offended by XXXTentacion not asking permission to use her name.” Straight from googs. 🤡
@@offensiveyeet her note isn’t on the the cover. those are letters he wrote from jail to geneva
@@gamilith true facts
It's men's mental health awareness month to all the guys here in the chat just want y'all to know you are doing a great job keep hanging in there I know it's hard and it seems no matter what you do it goes unappreciated but you are cared for by your family and friends
Didn’t even know this jamie! Thanks for letting me know!😊👍
@@ReactionTherapyOfficial a lot of people don't like most things to do with men it gets over looked or put on the back burner btw some facts that most don't know is men commit suicide 4 to 5 more times than female's we make up 70% of homeless population and we make up 98% work related deaths also we are more under educated compared to females
thank you a lot God bless you!!!
@@alexvoicu5906 you're welcome and same to you
It’s just tough man
I’ve never heard any song like it. He truly was a monumental artist
Fr
You've never heard a love song before? "There Is a Light That Never Goes Out - The Smiths" immediately comes to mind with very similar lyrics
you are to young a lot of artists doing that before him ;)
One of my favorite songs from X.
RIP Jahseh Dwayne Onfroy 🖤
4 years since his death today
Long live Jahseh
Definitely one of X’s best songs. The message and melodies are amazing. One song I’d suggest you to listen to is glimpse of us (official video) by Joji. The song really connects to me. The video has a lot of intensity brought to it. And the song sounds beautiful.
Another incredible song with a very strong message is "Orlando" from him too
That song is one of his best imo
Probably I read it somewhere on Genius but I feel in this song X is speaking about revenging himself, digging two graves, for the past him and the new him, for the things he did in the past and for the gruesome way of revenge itself that he's doing. Considering his SAD! video where X literally fights his past self it ties into this explanation.
However, it may of course be about him and Geneva, like the most of 17 album. In this case, I recommend checking Ayala Outro from there.
Thank you for this😊👍
Nah bro, I do like the idea but this is one of two songs dedicated to Jocelyn Flores.
@@ReactionTherapyOfficial please react to Luancy by XXXTentacion.
Who’s geneva
I think you might be right. I heard something about revenge being for Jocelyn
I respect how open your mind is when listening to our generation's music. Hats off sir.
The whole of the ‘17’ album has this vibe, x could do it all from heavy metal to songs like these. Gone way too soon 💔
After seeing the documentary on X my whole view on him has shifted to a point where I feel like I understand who he was and only a glimpse of the demons he faced. I truly appreciate and attached to his music from the beginning and it seems the vibe of his music shifted as I grew. Understanding all that happened in his short life beautiful and ugly made him feel so much more real because pain is something that makes us all feel so real (or not). I will always miss the legend but I understand how karma works and the last decisions he had to make about his life, it almost seems like he chose death.
BTW He starts with ‘I think I found a way to forgive myself for the mistakes I’ve made in the past’ meaning his positive impact on people outside of his dark lyrics
this is amazing, thank you tom i really appreciate you doing this reaction. it's the first video i've seen of yours and i can't tell you enough how refreshing it is to hear an older person give x's music a chance and be so open minded, great video!
Forreal, he's vibing with it
I agree, it is great to see an older person react to X's music cause most people just turn there heads and go in the opposite direction. I'm glad people still respect and love X to this day.
RIP X
Thanks so much 😊❤️
I just love watching you react from such a different perspective than mine, it really warms my heart different people can enjoy and break down music like this
It actually hurts me to think of all the music he had in him and all the songs that should have been written and performed that has been taken away from us.
I genuinely think he was going to go on to be an iconic artist, just listen to how he crafted that simple little song and made it into something so powerful. I'm not even some young fangirl, I'm a mother in my mid 30's and I feel like we've been robbed of someone very special.
A man who changed for the better gone too soon, rip X. It really is disgusting that many people focus more on how he used to be than how he was in his final years in life.
i've cried many times to this song 😂 love it man thanks for the reaction pops
Love what you're doing Tom!!
Thanks Ryan!😊
Damn dude. You're so supportive in every sentence you speak, these artists say a line and the look on your face is genuine. How are you such an amazing empath..? Your kids are very lucky. I can tell they grew up in an amazing household. Good job man.
I noticed that too, and I'm glad that people like this take the time to understand them and their minds.
I woke up with an intense need to research the psychology behind a couple genres I like and the type of processing I find most cathartic. There’s a deep connection I feel between rhythms and vibrations and lyrics. Thank you so much for your content that I just found today🙏
Coming from a veteran of 7 deployments, cptsd, tbi, BP1, and adhd, I’m striving to stay sober, and process a lot with music, medication, meditation, and a boat load of therapy.
I've been in a relationship with the girl of my dreams for 2.5 years. Unfortunately we had a long distance relationship, it was complicated but we did our best to stay connected on daily basis. I also flew over there and visited her few times, it was really the love of my life, I never felt like this before. We had a sweet thing going on, I was slowly learning her native language, looking for jobs in her country while working in mine. There was a moment when we even looked at apartments in her city because I planned to move in there in a close future after she finishes school. We sure had some hard times as any couple but I was trying my best and was willing to change things and work on things just to make it right because I really cared about her and loved her so much and I hoped it would work out. Well unfortunately she wasn't capable of trying that much and she ended up leaving me and what's even worse, she left me so she can start dating other guy that she knew. It's been about month and a half since then and I'm still completely heart broken, never felt worse in my life, I'm dead inside and I honestly don't know what to do. I want to work on myself and try to move on, I'm going to gym, i focus on work, I spend time with friends, I'm trying various activities but in the end I still think of her 24/7. Especially at nights. We used to video chat/call until we fell asleep and now it's just quiet. 0 contact. I miss her so much and I'm broken over the fact that she's dating someone else, a guy that I met there too and was friendly with. I know that time heals but I'm afraid it's gonna take so so so long and I won't mentally get over her. I'm completely lost and I don't know what to do. Talking to friends about it wasn't bad but i don't feel like it had any impact on me or that anything changed. This is the lowest point of my life. Please help me someone
trust me when I say this, in 6 months you're gonna think about that girl and laugh..... Keep your head up.
I've just been through a breakup too at one of the lowest points in my life. Focus on your dreams and aspirations, and that the relationship was never as perfect as you remember. Well get through this
Probably my favourite X song, so powerful and got me through so much
love your X videos man! keep it up
Been waiting on this for like 2 months now thanks❤️
Wow, I subbed when you were below 50k in January. This Channel is getting huge!!
I remember being 16. Now I'm 22. I used to listen to this song all the time because I always felt it. I was in a relationship with a girl in high school for 2 years when I was 16. The time I listened to this song all the time is, when I was 16.. I do not have that female in my life anymore obviously.. Every time I hear this song I think about her. I am moved on and met a various girls after her.. I still can't shake the thought's of her when I listen to this song for some reason. 8:30 listen..
Edit: Hey Tom! I see that nice guitar behind you all the time.. I never see you play it though. I've been wanting to get into guitar soon and, I would love to hear you play even if its a simple little note!
Hearing x voice makes me think of the things that he left behind it’s so sad how he was killed when we wanted to change
#LLJ 🕊 legends never die 💔
Hey, just wanted to say I've seen a bunch of your videos. And cuz I did that, my therapist said it saved my life. So I wanna say thank you.
Maannnn, one of the best reactions I have seen in a while, an actual reaction rare to see.
This song holds a special place in my heart. To much pain and reality 🖤💔 bad vibes forever
I really like this song. Thanks for reacting to it!
Love these videos mans Keep Them coming.
The guitar beat actually is made to set off a feeling to a person of chaos and Misery that is strung out and unbearable. When the first strum is played, it makes you tense and get anxious in a sort. Truly a masterpiece.
In my opinion is Revenge one of X's best songs, just the melody and the vibe it gives, it has helped me out when I was in really low place. Also keep up the good work! Love your videos. I would really appreciate if you would do song called vice city from XXXTENTACION
Btw when he means he dug two graves he means his uncle and his best friend that died, both suicide...and couple years later the legend passed. I love this video thank you bro
“In my grave I’ll rot”
Breakdown: he said he dug two graves, one for his past self and one for his unresolved emotion that took revenge. When he says he’ll Rot he will live with the guilt of taking revenge
X was such a genius.
(Theres other breakdowns but this is what I think)
The reaction I needed
the shock he had on his face LFMAOOA
Can't believe tomorrow is 4 years since hes died
😢😢😢
@@ReactionTherapyOfficial the only artist I have ever actually shed tears for after their passing. I really hope you delve more into his catalog. Him and Juice are the kings of this era.
Wow i can’t believe it’s been that long.
This is my fav song from x, it remind me of my ex, even after months of breaking up I still cry for her because I miss her so much, I got really attached to her and then everything reminds me of her, I miss her so much and I don't know how is she doing or if she's okay or if she thinks about me...
Hey therapist ! Its first video of you that I see and I’m impressed ! Greetings from Poland :)
X reactions are always great, you show a clear understanding of the human mind, and break down situations in an easy-to-understand way. I would highly recommend CORPSE's new song, "life waster". It talks about a lot of his struggles and problems. I would love to see a reaction to it!
If you'd really like to know the X's sad inspiration behind this song I'd recommend you watch his latest documentary for an in depth understanding.
I honestly didn’t like that documentary because it missed out on a lot of his life such as the Jocelyn Flores incident, and mostly focused on Geneva case. I wish it was longer and covered more of his life. For example, this song has Jocelyn Flores’ suicide note as the cover,mouth was not once mentioned in the movie.
@@indianstreeturchin4213 not her suicide note, it was garettes
One of my favorite songs. An iconic artist, gone too soon. LLJ 🖤🕊
As soon as I read the title I knew this song would incite a reaction, awesome 👏
"Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves" -confucius
I think x was kinda quoting him/ drawing inspiration from the quote.
I know you haven't reacted to too many x songs but he's is definitely one of the most versatile artist by far. He could do it all... R.I.P please react to more songs by him❤️
This has always been one of his best tracks :P It's a bit strange hearing a therapist react to it, but respect!
Just watched the reaction, so close to 150k subs 👏, you’ll make it soon enough, W reaction
We need the new Look at me album so many good songs on their older & newer and great for newer listeners to get an insight on him throughout his short but impactful career.
yess the older songs are also good and some meaningful
Hhhh the reaction on your face when you heard the first verse 🤣🤣🤣: priceless!
I'm subbing because this man, makes me feel at home
I dont know how to explain it
I've heard this song many times (still fire) but this is the first time i feel like x is actually putting all his dormant emotions, either recently or not recently in this song.
This is my favorite X song and I'm really glad you reacted to it. Keep making these videos, you're doing great!
Like I’m telling you I love them because they are so open with how they feel but to the kids who never had a good influence they are influenced by those who they think have done what they believe they couldn’t, blind lead the blind so that’s why I say thank you to you Tom for giving these kids the information they really need therapy is for you to talk about what you don’t feel safe talking about with others and sometimes our own perceptions are wrong and mislead, that those dreams you had once they become reality they show you your worst fears because now they are real I’m reading more on Freud and his dream interpretations cause this is recently what I’ve gone through god be with y’all cause if you didn’t know juice wrld and xxxtentacion learned more about the occult and the mind control you can have over those who are less conscious of the world we live in, and things like tarot while yes a useful way as it’s described to talk with yourself, nowadays all you see are people telling you versions of reality you want to believe but you know Is only fantasy unless you lie to yourself and make them your reality trust me playing with the dark arts never gives you what you want if anything it’s just weaves your own hellish story for you to run around in circles in your own psyche like nf said he is lost in his own consciousnesses that he chose and god keeps saying he’s not locked in also a little p.s.a for anyone who needs it let go you don’t have control over everything your not god reality will always snap back at you, you can’t twist the fabric of reality with your words that’s not how it works
And for any of you juice wrld stans I’m not hating on y’all but your not juice wrld or any of your favorite rappers and neither do you or should you want to be, they live lives with people who actually kill cartels and gangs hardcore drugs and no true trust in anyone they are so paranoid and once your in the game or industry you have to be all in its competitive once they do make it they have to choose between continuing the old life or living a new one but you become what you practice so it’s harder to live life without the addictions I just hope and pray they can get through it cause once they do can you imagine the music that will be made about god and how got them through what they never thought they could
Very well said manny! Thanks so much for explaining all of that. I appreciate your insight 😊👍
Not reading all that
@@Laudansdeum Have you ever tried countering those thoughts of "occult" theories and mind controlling with him just expressing himself? Sure, it may make certain people feel it's correct in a way due to the fact that they look at x as someone who they can relate with, but is that not the listeners fault?
X: I’ve dug two graves for us
Therapist: 🕺💃
Hahahhah
Just tuned in great reactions and content though keep up the good work
Great video, you should also react to ''Save Me'' another great song of X
One of the best. 🖤 nice video sir.
Still hoping for Dying and Veins both by Lil Peep. 🙏🏻
Your reactions are so funny love this
Not enough therapists these days have faith so great music you react to and thank you for wearing that cross proudly my man
✨️Confucius said that before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves. Bc you are punishing yourself along with the person you are wanting to seek revenge on. But unfortunately, revenge still seems “attractive”. One should never attempt to seek revenge on anyone, no matter the situation. His situation was his ex-gf accusing him of abusing and torturing her by acts of Satanism, while being pregnant. He was arrested. Locked up. His reputation ruined. She lied.
✨️The best revenge is no revenge. It is better to hold back your anger and show you forgave yourself and can be happy. Because there’s no better way than to act calmly and wisely and live at peace. And he did just that: the helping hand challenge, gave the youth a voice and expressed our inner thoughts and emotions through his music, giving out free school supplies, and he did a lot to help the victims of the parkland shooting.
✨️Just 2 hours before he passed he is quoted saying "Worst things come worst, I die a tragic death or some sh*t and I’m not able to see out my dreams, I at least want to know that the kids perceived my message, were able to make something of themselves and were able to take my message and use it and turn it into something positive and to at least have a good life,”
LLJ🕊
Very cool! Thanks for this!😊👍
Nah, he ain't said it 2 hrs before his death. But several months before he died.
But you've got a good analysis btw! Kudos
Probably the best song of the album 17, and that's something knowing that 17 is the best album of all time (totally objectiv, don't say no). The guitar is recurrent in X's song, especially in 17 with piano as well. And yes, his girlfriend claimed he was beating her while she was pregnant and after his death admitted she lied, and it's a real real huge theme in his song's, I mean you already kinda figure he was heartbroken ^^
agreed!!
He beat his girlfriend and thats a harsh truth, the only thing she lied is about being pregnant.
How could you not subscribe to this man.. nothing but positive energy emerging from him🙂
Thanks so much!😊👍
It's when I listened to that song that I realized he was gonna be someone for me and for a lot of people
you should watch X's Documentary so you can see some of his life
That's my favourite song of X, thank u to react❤️❤️❤️
Takes me back to when I first heard this song and the therapy is that which I needed.🖤✝
Look how open minded this man is, need more people like this
🐐
4 years without X, Long Live the King.
i love how you always just absolutely groove to the songs lol
The moment he changed is the moment he was token, Love Live Jahseh Onfroy.
And as he said..he’s not gone until he’s forgotten,
Sincerely X.
Month 5 of requesting Crisis by Abstract continued...
Month 5????? Since January!!!???😳
You have such a cool channel! Thanks for sharing!
It was too soon for him to go, one of my favourite artists ,many others PopSmoke,JuiceWRLD,LilPeep all of em were such young dudes. Rest in peace,you may be gone but your legacy will continue
I love how immediately you start vibing out to the guitar
This was helpfull and healing full. Thanks for sharing
I really like your Squier strat in the Background!

LLX & LLJ
Love this reaction. And I’ll r how your open to it!
i litterly cant not cry when i hear 1 of x's sad songs ive been a fan since 2016 and it just really breaks my heart.
Dude I just found you guys can't wait to see whats going on
Thank you so much for this reaction. #LLJ
Loved the video
i respect this man for not judging x's way of coping with things like this! :)
Tom please do more X... I think I need it right now. All of the therapy shit makes sense but what happens when u can't control it. When ur no longer the driver and just along for the ride? I've never had therapy in my life. This helps sometimes.
I’ll play this on 7/18/23 in Milwaukee. Thanks for all of your videos.
i love watching these, rip X
incredible , i really enjoyed it. Greetings to you from Argentina
I just wanna say, your sweater is so tough. The cross on the zip goes hard asf.
