This song saved my life my son showed it to me almost 4 years ago. At the time I was10 years addicted to opiates. Through Nates voice and eyes I felt all the pain I had been putting my children through. It effected me so strongly that it was the push I needed to finally seek treatment. I've been clean ever since and an devoted fan. Nate is a prophet , I will be forever grateful.
I am so happy for you. I knew a lot of people who didn't quit and are no longer alive. It kills you to lose people and im glad your son still has his parent :)
When he recorded this apparently he cleared the studio to do this one. His emotions just rip your heart out. It explains a LOT in Nate's journey. Great reaction...thank you.
Having to relive this was probably incredibly difficult. I was molested and beaten by my own stepfather as a kid, and I pushed it so far down that talking about it was really really hard. I woukd get incredibly angry. I found out that you have to be able to do what Nate did here to let it go. If not we only hurt ourselves. When I listened to this song it made me think of me trying to truly talk about it. It was hard to even talk. Afterwards I felt 1000 lbs lifted from my shoulders. My marriage has gotten a lot better also because I'm trying not to be so guarded and open up. NF is so amazing and he saved my life. If only he knew how much he really meant to me, and we've never even met.
This hits home in so many ways, I lost my mom 5 years ago, my dad 25 years ago, and my wife and unborn child 2.5 years ago.....I've turned to so many drugs and alcohol to get through so much, to feel numb to it all....I've been clean for 20+ years, a couple of little slips like when mom passed and when I watch my wife's last smile turn to her last breath, I would be a complete mess if I didn't have my kids, I've lost so much, including myself....
Damn dude. I haven't seen one reactor go back and listen to more of this song after the first listen. It never gets easier to listen to and still chokes me up every time.
The fact that NF doesn't swear in any of his songs is something that i find really cool. he doesn't need to swear to show how he feels and to get his point across he's a legend. NF is that rare artist that i enjoy listening to every single one of his songs over and over again. i relate to most of his songs on a personal level and they really are the kind of songs that save people.
I feel this song was the beginning of NF setting himself free. Look where he is now. He is such an example of facing your demons and growing healthy and strong. He says he isn't angry any more... He's finding forgiveness.
This is probably the most powerful song of our generation. It’s should be much more well known. This man out a piece of his soul into the track. It’s magical. This song with save lives.
My father was an addict, and by the time I heard this song he was 5 years sober. But it's really made me appreciate how hard it was for him, and that it didn't escalate
I lost my mom when I was 14 to a opioid overdose. This song hits home hard, everything in it, every single word even down to “I think of you when I get a wiff of that cigarette smell”. I am now a father of 4 and my mom will never get to meet them. this song is when I truly became a MASSIVE NF fan. Thank you so much for reacting to this! I am definitely a new subscriber!!!!
Ive never worried for you so much during a reaction then i have now as soon as i saw the notification i knew this was hitting you hard regardless of your own life this sits hard with everyone
When I first found NF and went through the journey this song BROKE me. I still cry when I hear it. My heart just aches for him and what he went through in life. Also, yes, he has 2 sisters. He was actually crying in the studio too. That wasn't fake at all. Great reaction once again, AB!
It’s amazing how Nate has so many dimensions to his music. His music makes you feel things to the core. I love to see reactors go through the NF journey; it’s such a wild ride. It brings me back to the time when I started the journey and I’m so happy that I did.
My dad passed when I was 9 from liver cancer as a result of his addiction. My mom is still battling her demons and I don't really allow her to be a part of my life from the pain she caused. If you don't understand addiction I hope this sheds a little light. I struggled being a part of that environment but now have 4 1/2 years clean. I just had my first child and they only have one set of grandparents so the line about his mom not being there for the day he has kids hits different now. NF is as REAL as it gets and speaks the nightmares that many of us live....
My mom was never there for us. She was an alcoholic and still is. My dad was around but was never there as a father. He was an alcoholic and a drug addict. Lost in his own nightmare, he could have protected us from the nightmare we went through growing up, but he didn't. In 2013 I told him I loved him and the next day he was dead. That was the last time I ever spoke to him. Thing is, that was the first time I told him I loved him and actually meant it. Still a lot I got to work through from my childhood. Keep up the great work NF! God Bless! And to everyone who has had a bad childhood growing up, you are not alone. You have friends you don't know about and you have a Father in Heaven who loves you more than any man ever could on this earth.
I read his bio and he's been through a battle with his mother. A battle many people around the world. Has and still are going through. . We must endure any personal life battle knowing we will come out strong and victorious. Incredible man he is.
This song, seeing those little kids and him now it hits me hard. I have 2 children, 5 and 2. I've struggled with my mental health and in 2020 I tried to take my life. This is my cinstant reminder to stay for them, that even when I think they'd be better off without me I'd just be handing all of my pain to them to carry for the rest of their lives. His music is something special.
I was watching an NF interview and he said that this was such an emotional song for him to record that he kicked everyone out of the studio so he could have time alone to compose and calm himself down after the song. It is a heartbreaking, must listen song. These emotional songs he writes is one of the reasons why I love NF.
“I don’t want a picture of my mom I want the real thing” gets me every time. As a child of a mother who had issues much like his mother and died because of it.
Cool fact about this song. When NF was recording this halfway through recording it he started breaking down. His producer (Tommee Profitt) then took him to go see a movie. When they got back to the studio he proceeded to cry for another 30 minutes before he could finish the song
This song made me appreciate my mom more 🥺❤️that’s why I love this song and is anyone gonna talk about how AB vocals came out when he was singing the hook 👀🔥
This is my 1st time listening to NF, as I read about him it was said thst 'he has a song for each of us.' I will definitely be looking into more of his music. In the meantime, I am calling my mother directly! And AB, I love that t-shirt!
At the end of the song when he’s talking. He had kicked everyone out of the studio and just vented in the mic for a bit and gave it to Tommee his producer. And that’s what Tommee put together. It was raw, and his real emotions. Not something he wrote or anything to say at the end. This song is hard for Nate. He has performed it maybe a handful of times max but now has regrets about it because as he’s grown up he kind of understands his mom more and how hard it was for her etc.
I was 17 when my mom died. I was already into his music because of the song Mansion actually. She was the person I loved and trusted the most in the world. Only right before I was taken did I notice that she was severely abusive. My abuse was mostly emotional and mental but she also forced me to take pills though thank god I never got addicted. I had to go since she became different with the drugs and alcohol to the point that I'd also be starved, wasn't allowed to go outside, and eventually my life was in danger. After some years we got close again but she told me she went to the hospital and I got mad thinking that she wasn't clean anymore but after I looked into some of her symptoms I just stepped back. The next day I was called and they said that she was dying from kidney and liver failure and that would be her last day. I flew out and my twin and I held her hand as she passed. She passed 3 days before my twin and I turned 18 and we spent that day sorting through her things. No one would go near us either in fear of Covid on that day my family revealed that they knew about my abuse.I felt so depressed and abandoned. Later on I had my Graduation which my mom made plans to go to. This song brings up so many memory's. you say you're proud of me but you dont know me that well, im in a room with a parent that i dont barely know, The person watching us taking notes, i guess pills are more important,i got this picture in my room and it kills me i dont need a picture of my mom i need the real thing, now a relationship is something we will never have why do i feel like i lost something i never had?,you shouldve been there when i graduated, if you really cared for me then where you at then? it took everything inside of me not to scream at your funeral, i wish you were here mama but every time i picture you all i feel is pain i hate the way i remember you. This song, Nate helped me so much. He is so amazing. I really want to thank him for helping through my pain.
This one got me on a personal level 😭 my mom overcame her addiction with the help of God and love for her kids. I couldn’t imagine if she’d have died instead she loves us a lot but when high she wasn’t herself
This song is the song my friend had me listen to first. I was hooked today as I write this having 119 month sober one month shy of 10 years without a drink. I understand pills and alcohol aren’t the same but I remember putting my Family through hell. When I listened to this I was about 5 years sober. NF’s music is amazing. These videos are amazing thank you! Side note a super fun evening my friend that had me listen to NF I got to buy us tickets to go see him live it was actually on my Sobriety Birthday a few years back. Keep doing what you do
this year I had 54k minutes of listening on spotify. 24k were from NF. I'm just addicted to his music even tho I haven't experienced anything dark like he describes here
The part towards the end where you hear him break down he had cleared out the studio because he really did break down during the recording, blows me away that he added a true moment of vulnerability to the track
Don't be afraid to curse bro, its your channel, your platform. I don't like a lot of videos or sub to people often but your reactions are entertaining as hell.
Not looking for a pity party but this literally happened to my dad. I found him on the floor. He had seizures so I thought that's what I thought it was and put him in his chair and went back to my room expecting he would wake up eventually. A few hours later I came to shake him to wake him up but he was already cold. Later the hospital did an autopsy and told us it was from an overdose of opiates and he was already dead before I put him in the chair. I still feel guilty to this day because I should have realize he was already gone and I just thought it was just another episode he had. If I would have paid more attention maybe I could have done something like CPR till the paramedics arrived but that's on me for not noticing he wasn't breathing and that's my fault. This filling of guilt will never go away because of my ignorance, that's why this song hits me so hard and I feel for anyone that's ever gone through something like thing like this. They say time takes away the pain but in certain circumstances the guilt will never let you forget.
Different lives we all have but the same scenario we "the majority that is reading this". All scenarios and walks of our lives in correlation in the meaning of this song all relate. Awesome reaction bro 💯.
Dang, had to pause it right at the beginning of your video. I kept thinking to myself, he’s NOT ready for this one. Love your reacts! 🔥 Damnit, now I’m finished with your react and I’m frickin crying again. I’ve seen and heard this song a hundred times, and I’m crying again. 😮💨
I knew it was coming soon for you, I was very worried for you as well. I have a few other "reactors" that I watch on the reg. You sir are the only one I can just hit "Play all" and let it go. Never has anyone I've seen react to this song and gone back for more. At the end when Nate's in the car and he says, "pills got you right, the pills got you right" that's the one I watched again, and again, and again. Yes it saved my life as well.
Great reaction! I’ve had many teenager foster children that have been through this situation and they all love this song. NF is a healer through his music. Blessings!
You did this song justice my guy. To go back and listen to that verse again says a lot. I'm a grown ass man and cry when I hear it. But it's definitely not a car ride song. You're a pretty good singer in your own right dude. Cheers from TN
yeah this song chokes me all the time. I lost my dad when I was 25 years old to alcohol addiction. I now have two boys that I know my dad when would have been ecstatic to have been around but he'll never have that chance. So when NF says at the end "sometimes i think about how when i have kids you won't be there for any of that" it kills me a little. That and when he talks about how she was coming to get them and then called a minute later to say she's not and now he's humiliated. My dad lived 15 minutes from where i lived with my mom. He would pull the same crap and one time my mom caught him when she went into town to get groceries he had a pile of people at his house drinking and partying and gambling. But there were some good memories too.
This song gets me everytime! When i saw you were reacting to it, I told myself you weren’t ready for how it would affect you. I dont think ive ever seen u so speechless during an NF reaction 😆. Great job as always! Next song!
This song hits me so hard on all different angles. My dad took his own life when my older brother and I were little. He fell into a manic depressive state, started abusing drugs and alcohol, and believed everyone was against him. It started a chain reaction in our lives, not understanding why he wasn't there, sadness looking for something we would never have, and anger at him for making those choices. All before we ever became adults. My older brother turned to pills and alcohol to help him fill the void. I struggled with alchohol. I was able to mostly overcome my issues. My older brother is now in his 30's, desperate to stop doing that stuff for his 3 children. Now, I have to deal with the fact that my kids dad decided he doesnt want to be a part of her life at all anymore. Scared that she's going to go through the same emotions we went through.
Hey AB, this one here is "different" "WAR - Low Rider (Official Video) [Remastered in 4K]" looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this one~ Take Care
This has to be his most powerful and emotional song to date. That's saying something. It's the only track that makes me cry almost every time. Kudos to getting through it AB.
The journey is necessary, as the albums progress you see how he grows in his music, as an individual, and how his past contributed to his hunger on the mic
I’ve had the opportunity to go to his therapy session and his clouds tour. 2 different energies same amount of passion into his work. He’s my all time favorite artist. I’m also thankful for the fact that you’re going through his journey I’ve binge watched your NF reactions for 2 hours straight lol. Thank you man keep up the amazing work.
I came across this video but man it's just made me realise how much pain I put my kids through with my drug issues but I hope there prode of me been clean since 2007
Thanks for your heart felt reaction. I love seeing NF through your eyes. If you want love ~is emotional as well in a different way. Made me think about life a little differently too
This song gets me every time man. I remember listening to it for the first time and the tears just started flowing not even halfway into the song. My mom was sitting just across the room from me and she saw me crying and asked what was wrong. I told her how this song was hitting and how much I really loved her. I couldn't imagine my life without her, so listening to someone describe their experience of losing their mother and how it affected him hit me like a freight train. I do know what it's like to lose a parent though. Not because they passed due to their addiction, but because they made the decision to leave. My dad walked out of my life, disappeared without a trace, shortly after my 16th birthday. So while I can't imagine a life without my mom, I do know what it's like to lose a family member and knowing I'll never see them again. I had just recently started my own NF journey at the time(this was shortly after he dropped No Name) and this was how I knew I was a forever fan. The fact that he can take this experience that was a defining moment in his life and turn into a song that can make ANYONE feel these raw, visceral emotions is the mark of a true artist. When I first heard this song, I had just come off of listening to "Real" so I was pumped up. Talk about crashing hard because this song brought me from hyped to bawling my eyes out in less than a minute and a half. I still get emotional listening to it. This will forever be one of my favorite songs.
Brother, I am a recent subscriber because, you are definitely an authentic reactor. You engage us and I love the energy. On Home Free, if you want to see what they all can do, listen to their cover of Mayday by Cam. Just remember, that Tim is your Bass. Keep the orange juice flowing. Thank you for the awesomeness.
Your NF vibes, your reactions and authenticity are 🔥🔥 I've been anxiously waiting on my personal fav's from the mixtape "That's A Joke" - pure flex & "Drifting" - smoothest track Best wishes for the New Year & Keep up the heat! ✌
This song saved my life my son showed it to me almost 4 years ago. At the time I was10 years addicted to opiates. Through Nates voice and eyes I felt all the pain I had been putting my children through. It effected me so strongly that it was the push I needed to finally seek treatment. I've been clean ever since and an devoted fan. Nate is a prophet , I will be forever grateful.
Nice job getting off that shit, proud of you
I am so happy for you. I knew a lot of people who didn't quit and are no longer alive. It kills you to lose people and im glad your son still has his parent :)
Great Job! I’m so happy for you and your family. Stay Strong & God Bless.
Great job! Powerful testimony. Stay strong. 🙏💪
God Bless You!
When he recorded this apparently he cleared the studio to do this one. His emotions just rip your heart out. It explains a LOT in Nate's journey. Great reaction...thank you.
Just very very emotional!!🙏🏾🥺🔥🔥🔥

@@ABtheKreator yeah the very end part when he was crying/talking he had everyone leave so he could be alone

No one is truly ready to hear this song the first time
Damn dude. I haven't seen one reactor go back and listen to more of this song after the first listen. It never gets easier to listen to and still chokes me up every time.
Had to go back!!!!! It’s too powerful
The fact that NF doesn't swear in any of his songs is something that i find really cool. he doesn't need to swear to show how he feels and to get his point across he's a legend. NF is that rare artist that i enjoy listening to every single one of his songs over and over again. i relate to most of his songs on a personal level and they really are the kind of songs that save people.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Everyone knows someone who needs to hear this song. Just remember people can change.
I've never clicked so fast in my life rip the secretary
😥. No matter how many times I hear this song it breaks my heart. His crying chokes me up every time 😥
Me too 🥶🥶😭I get chills literally every single time
Straight facts.
I cry everytime. Sometimes time doesn't heal.
Same, it doesn't matter how many times i hear it, it still makes me cry.
I feel this song was the beginning of NF setting himself free. Look where he is now. He is such an example of facing your demons and growing healthy and strong.
He says he isn't angry any more... He's finding forgiveness.
This is probably the most powerful song of our generation.

Yeah that last part he asked everyone in the studio to leave, then he poured his heart out. Powerful song
I still cry every time I hear it too.
Before I even watch this reaction I have to say this is the one I have been looking forward to the most!
Well I hope it works for you!! 🙌🏾🤣🔥🔥🔥
@@ABtheKreator I enjoy your reactions too much to be disappointed 🤣
It’s amazing how Nate has so many dimensions to his music. His music makes you feel things to the core.
I love to see reactors go through the NF journey; it’s such a wild ride. It brings me back to the time when I started the journey and I’m so happy that I did.
My dad passed when I was 9 from liver cancer as a result of his addiction. My mom is still battling her demons and I don't really allow her to be a part of my life from the pain she caused.

This is, hands down, my fav NF song & it ALWAYS gets to me & him crying at the end absolutely breaks my heart 😔😢💙

Got you on my mind is another heart wrencher
I think it is beautiful when someone can turn pain into art that will make others feel, understand and possibly change their ways.
Wooooooooooooooow.... THAT'S REAL. Thanks, AB.. 💯❤
I was watching an NF interview and he said that this was such an emotional song for him to record that he kicked everyone out of the studio so he could have time alone to compose and calm himself down after the song. It is a heartbreaking, must listen song. These emotional songs he writes is one of the reasons why I love NF.
love NF cuz he doesnt even try to hide his demons growing up. relating NF to M is ko cuz they have a similar flow and even voice
“I don’t want a picture of my mom I want the real thing” gets me every time. As a child of a mother who had issues much like his mother and died because of it.
This is the one I heard first from him and had me hooked.
I'm a country girl at heart, but I now have a NF playlist, this is opening me to new music 🎧🎶
This is one of those songs that no matter how many times you listen to it youll always find tears rolling down your face.
I've heard this track hundreds of times and still cry everytime.
I saw him live in Cincinnati back in September. Highly recommend! Intro III is going to blow your mind too
YOU DID IT!! It's all uphill from here ... NOT. Thank you for another beautiful reaction.
This song really makes you feel his pain. I cry everytime.

The strength and courage it took to put this out there for the masses, hoping it would help someone else...amazing
O my gosh every single time I watch this I get chills
Man this song breaks my heart everytime I hear it 😭😭😭😭😭😭
I'm almost 14 years sober and have seen too many people pass away. This man is amazing! So glad you took this journey.
I cry every single time I hear this song...Love you Nate and thank you for the reaction AB!

Such a tear jerker this song. It’s like a sucker punch to the gut
I'm actually shocked that you didn't break down. My son and i were whimpering like babies when we heard this.
I’ve been through some tough times with my own mother so I get it bro… all love 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️
@@ABtheKreator then good for you for being able to control the emotional response.
Alright all caught up on the playlist. Let's go!
The part towards the end where you hear him break down he had cleared out the studio because he really did break down during the recording, blows me away that he added a true moment of vulnerability to the track
Your silence at the end said more than words could ever say…..much love to you.
Been waiting for this one!!! One of my all time favorite songs from NF. Whenever I show people NF this one of of the first songs I always suggest.
Yes I have been waiting for this one . This is a hard one..
ahh i cant wait untill you get to the search album. some of those songs are this level deep
Don't be afraid to curse bro, its your channel, your platform. I don't like a lot of videos or sub to people often but your reactions are entertaining as hell.
I got chills and tears from this song.
I told you about this one awhile ago..... bro, everytime I hear this song (doesn't matter how many times) it still hits me in the feels.
🙌🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🥺
Oh wow I feel so sorry for these children who have been through this.
That was a pain down to my soul to listen to. I can't imagine actually going through it. My God
Heartbreakingly sad. Emotionally draining .
Love one another. You never know what someone else is going through.
Great reaction as always AB.
Yes you have to spread the love!!!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@ABtheKreator Amen.
My father took his own life over a year ago. This song hurts, but it also heals.
My son's father did the same three years ago and it is still traumatic.. my heart goes out to you 💔
Thank you, I'm sorry for your loss aswell.
Thank you for your kind regards.
🙏🏾🙏🏾 sorry for your lose
@@ABtheKreator Thank you man
Not looking for a pity party but this literally happened to my dad. I found him on the floor. He had seizures so I thought that's what I thought it was and put him in his chair and went back to my room expecting he would wake up eventually. A few hours later I came to shake him to wake him up but he was already cold. Later the hospital did an autopsy and told us it was from an overdose of opiates and he was already dead before I put him in the chair. I still feel guilty to this day because I should have realize he was already gone and I just thought it was just another episode he had. If I would have paid more attention maybe I could have done something like CPR till the paramedics arrived but that's on me for not noticing he wasn't breathing and that's my fault. This filling of guilt will never go away because of my ignorance, that's why this song hits me so hard and I feel for anyone that's ever gone through something like thing like this. They say time takes away the pain but in certain circumstances the guilt will never let you forget.
Tbh he is the most Genuine rapper I’ve ever heard
This song just hurts different! I've seen all too many times how pill addiction treats families apart and kills.
This gets me everytime
I´ve heard this song so often but.. I just can´t
Get the tissues Secretary!
Different lives we all have but the same scenario we "the majority that is reading this". All scenarios and walks of our lives in correlation in the meaning of this song all relate. Awesome reaction bro 💯.
Dang, had to pause it right at the beginning of your video. I kept thinking to myself, he’s NOT ready for this one. Love your reacts! 🔥
Damnit, now I’m finished with your react and I’m frickin crying again. I’ve seen and heard this song a hundred times, and I’m crying again. 😮💨
I knew it was coming soon for you, I was very worried for you as well. I have a few other "reactors" that I watch on the reg. You sir are the only one I can just hit "Play all" and let it go. Never has anyone I've seen react to this song and gone back for more. At the end when Nate's in the car and he says, "pills got you right, the pills got you right" that's the one I watched again, and again, and again. Yes it saved my life as well.
Wow!!! We are all very happy for you Jennifer 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾
Me too... Play all from AB . I'm down 😎
Great reaction! I’ve had many teenager foster children that have been through this situation and they all love this song. NF is a healer through his music. Blessings!
You did this song justice my guy. To go back and listen to that verse again says a lot. I'm a grown ass man and cry when I hear it. But it's definitely not a car ride song. You're a pretty good singer in your own right dude. Cheers from TN
yeah this song chokes me all the time. I lost my dad when I was 25 years old to alcohol addiction. I now have two boys that I know my dad when would have been ecstatic to have been around but he'll never have that chance. So when NF says at the end "sometimes i think about how when i have kids you won't be there for any of that" it kills me a little. That and when he talks about how she was coming to get them and then called a minute later to say she's not and now he's humiliated. My dad lived 15 minutes from where i lived with my mom. He would pull the same crap and one time my mom caught him when she went into town to get groceries he had a pile of people at his house drinking and partying and gambling. But there were some good memories too.
This song gets me everytime! When i saw you were reacting to it, I told myself you weren’t ready for how it would affect you. I dont think ive ever seen u so speechless during an NF reaction 😆. Great job as always! Next song!
If you go back to perception “Outcast” is an amazing song. I haven’t seen the vid, but because it’s NF it’s probably fire
My favorite thing about you is your huh, secretary, and brother
It doesn't matter 1st time or 100th time... ur never really ready for he takes u here
This song hits me so hard on all different angles. My dad took his own life when my older brother and I were little. He fell into a manic depressive state, started abusing drugs and alcohol, and believed everyone was against him. It started a chain reaction in our lives, not understanding why he wasn't there, sadness looking for something we would never have, and anger at him for making those choices. All before we ever became adults. My older brother turned to pills and alcohol to help him fill the void. I struggled with alchohol. I was able to mostly overcome my issues. My older brother is now in his 30's, desperate to stop doing that stuff for his 3 children. Now, I have to deal with the fact that my kids dad decided he doesnt want to be a part of her life at all anymore. Scared that she's going to go through the same emotions we went through.
Hey AB, this one here is "different" "WAR - Low Rider (Official Video) [Remastered in 4K]" looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this one~ Take Care
This has to be his most powerful and emotional song to date. That's saying something. It's the only track that makes me cry almost every time. Kudos to getting through it AB.
I've been waiting so long for this one. 💙😭
The journey is necessary, as the albums progress you see how he grows in his music, as an individual, and how his past contributed to his hunger on the mic
I’ve had the opportunity to go to his therapy session and his clouds tour. 2 different energies same amount of passion into his work. He’s my all time favorite artist. I’m also thankful for the fact that you’re going through his journey I’ve binge watched your NF reactions for 2 hours straight lol. Thank you man keep up the amazing work.
at the end, he asked everyone to leave the studio and he just talked for like 10 minutes. they cut it down to that and threw it in
I came across this video but man it's just made me realise how much pain I put my kids through with my drug issues but I hope there prode of me been clean since 2007
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💙
@@ABtheKreator thank you 😊 🙏 my little princess 16th birthday 22 April I'm going to make it special
That song gives me goosebumps every single time! All the pain, all those emotions.
Thanks for your heart felt reaction. I love seeing NF through your eyes. If you want love ~is emotional as well in a different way. Made me think about life a little differently too
Every time I hear this song I cry. It reminds me sooo much of my mom. Every word is my life and it sucks. Bring your tissues on this one!
This song gets me every time man. I remember listening to it for the first time and the tears just started flowing not even halfway into the song. My mom was sitting just across the room from me and she saw me crying and asked what was wrong. I told her how this song was hitting and how much I really loved her. I couldn't imagine my life without her, so listening to someone describe their experience of losing their mother and how it affected him hit me like a freight train. I do know what it's like to lose a parent though. Not because they passed due to their addiction, but because they made the decision to leave. My dad walked out of my life, disappeared without a trace, shortly after my 16th birthday. So while I can't imagine a life without my mom, I do know what it's like to lose a family member and knowing I'll never see them again.
I had just recently started my own NF journey at the time(this was shortly after he dropped No Name) and this was how I knew I was a forever fan. The fact that he can take this experience that was a defining moment in his life and turn into a song that can make ANYONE feel these raw, visceral emotions is the mark of a true artist. When I first heard this song, I had just come off of listening to "Real" so I was pumped up. Talk about crashing hard because this song brought me from hyped to bawling my eyes out in less than a minute and a half. I still get emotional listening to it. This will forever be one of my favorite songs.
NF said in interview that he wish he didn't make this, song now
I love this song but I cant listen to it without starting to tear up
Brother, I am a recent subscriber because, you are definitely an authentic reactor. You engage us and I love the energy. On Home Free, if you want to see what they all can do, listen to their cover of Mayday by Cam. Just remember, that Tim is your Bass. Keep the orange juice flowing. Thank you for the awesomeness.
Thanks for helping me find this. Cried so hard, I'm drained.
Dude this guy is speaking to my soul tonight! I am raising 2 kids of an addict mom that I adopted.
This one always makes me sob, it's such a powerful message and has so much emotion.
Your NF vibes, your reactions and authenticity are 🔥🔥
I've been anxiously waiting on my personal fav's from the mixtape
"That's A Joke" - pure flex & "Drifting" - smoothest track
Best wishes for the New Year & Keep up the heat! ✌
Appreciate that and surprisingly I have done those you’ve asked for lol… check out my NF playlist 🙏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🔥🔥
