Part of the brilliance of NF is things that he puts in his videos. Visual as well as lyrical. It looks like the video isn't really being watched in this one which I understand because you want the lyrical meaning. But I've noticed that the subtitles are very accurate on NF videos. Maybe trying those both the lyrics and the video could be paid attending to instead of missing some of the brilliance. Just an idea. God bless you guys and thanks for doing the NF series.
Thanks for the input and for your understanding. We’re still figuring it out and we’re glad your enjoying the series so far. We’ll see what we can do. God Bless
I was there in the pit in Grand Rapids, mr.producer I was one of the tall people in the pit passing the balloons over to the one side that everyone was cheering about!
@riveschurch To me the people in white scrubs represent people that are on psych meds and the amusement park represents the mental health care system, he still has the scrubs in the shopping Cart which signify he hasn't taken the psych meds.
I think the song 'NATE' is another song that better explains how he deals with a lot of this stuff even more. its such an essential song to listen to on the search album

Very interesting takes on many of his lyrics. Big fan of NF love his passion and that he raps angry. When I was living for the world I liked the anger in Marshall Mathers but was far from clean. I enjoy NF lyricly and this by far cinematically one of his best. It was recorded in the abandoned six flags over New Orleans in which I went to many times church youth group.
*I TOLD YOU HE'S GONNA NEED THEM LYRICS*
Lol
He tells you in this song that the balloons are his doubts.
Subscribed for NF!!!!!! Can't wait!!! You guys have to do Mama, Happy, Mistake, and Running!!!!
This song resonated for me so much. I was diagnosed with OCD over 15 years ago.
Appreciate the reaction as usual. Can't wait I see NF in august!
Part of the brilliance of NF is things that he puts in his videos. Visual as well as lyrical. It looks like the video isn't really being watched in this one which I understand because you want the lyrical meaning. But I've noticed that the subtitles are very accurate on NF videos.

Is he saying leave me alone to his intrusive thoughts and doubts?
He has the same makeup as the dude in Hope that want the control!??
The ONE he turns the back to and take the REIGNS?
It's because in hope he's talking to hin old self
