"From Rap Genius: On “Train food,” XXXTENTACION raps about death’s inescapability. The song’s minimalistic and eerie production features a jarring piano accompanied by the sounds of a train and a thunderstorm. X gives a first-person narrative of an individual and their encounter with the personification of Death as they walk home. The person takes a different route than usual and is encountered by Death, who kidnaps them. They wake up tied to train tracks, but there is no escape. They go through an emotional monologue, reflecting on their life, but also imagining what could have been in their future. The individual finally asks themselves if they are going to heaven or hell, but they are ultimately killed before an answer is revealed. Based on its lyrical content, “Train food” appears to be rapped from the opposing viewpoint of X’s infamous XXL Freshmen Cypher. In that verse, X raps from the perspective of the devil, detailing a murderous plot that involves stalking and kidnapping. Many of the lyrics in that verse directly correspond to lyrics in this song. This track is also both sonically and thematically reminiscent of “I spoke to the devil in Miami, he said everything would be fine,” a track in which X has a conversation with Satan about his soul." -EthiopianNutella on Reddit
Years back I also read a comment somewhere stating that the line, "But the summer rays were kissing me", has some significance and is a reference to one of his previous girlfriends. Not sure how it effects the story but I thought it was interesting.
this song brings tears to my eyes. His description of death and the abrupt ending showing how quick death is and how everything you lusted over doesn't even matter in the end. he was a lyrical genius.
The way I’ve heard it pronounced is Xxx ten tah cion. How you said it is correct. But it is hard because I don’t know phonetics so I’m not sure if how I have it typed out makes sense.
It’s pronounced in Spanish differently I guess that’s why people are being annoying but some people can’t pronounce it right and there’s nothing wrong with that. His pronunciation is as close as he could get
So thankful for this channel. Keep it up, this channel is going to be huge in next few months. 🙌 Can’t wait for more X reactions. I really like the way you break down the lyrics and just explain it.
This is such an eerie song when you account for how its almost predicting how he died. "He asked how far are you from home, I said maybe 30 minutes" - He died very closed to where he lived "I was dressed for winter but the summer rays were kissing me" - he was wearing a jacket in the summer time in the middle of miami, not a normal thing to do at all "I remember people were walking and talking in the distance, I was lost" - he was wandering around looking to buy a new bike but forgot the money at his house. if you watch the security camera video he was pacing back and forth looking lost in the footage Theres been people that have really analyzed this song and its one of those songs that turn into almost an ubran legend. X is an extremely deep and interesting person and I dont think there will ever be another one, not for a while at least. Its great of you to do these and keep an open mind when listening to the songs.
Past all the metaphors and allegory’s, this song is such a good warning of stranger danger and kidnapping, it really puts the fear in you, letting you know that these people, they can be kind and friendly they can talk casually and act like their looking out for you but really they could be planning something cruel and evil, and if you don’t leave the situation as soon as you can it could be only a matter of time before it’s too late
The follow up song to this one on the album shows the whole beauty in x’s art. Whoa (mind in awe). It’s a crazy musical change from this song and shifts the vibe from the darkest moment to one of his most positive songs. Would make for a more positive reaction experience and follow up this nicely! You might need a lyric video. Appreciate you’re work and time! I’m 26 and enjoy these reactions a lot. Funny enough, it is like a minor form of therapy. Good work!
How fitting lmao, I turn 26 5 days from now (14th). I were just about to post a comment about how "why, yes - yes, I actually do know" @ the "You ever woke up on a train track With no motherfuckin' clothes on? Death before your eyes, you prayin' to God, but ain't no response Trying to scream for hope, just a shoulder that you can lean on But ain't nobody coming, so you scream on And scream on and scream on"
I really love how you picked that apart. I'm a mix engineer and sound designer and I finally listened to X a little over a year ago, well after he was killed. Of all the music of his I've heard that song is the only one shocks and scares you like that. You did a great job articulating what the presumed emotional thought process would be of the narrator in that situation
People speculated that this song was a direct foreshadow of his death. When x died he was dress for winter whether during the summer, he died in June. He was wearing a hoodie and a bomber jacket. Furthermore, he died in his car which was right next to the train tracks. Also, the build up in the song, where something is going to happen in the future plays a part in his death… x made eye contact with his killer in the motorcycle dealership. X looked death in the eyes. Sooner or later he was killed.
Just found this channel and I have to say from the videos I’ve seen so far, thanks for trying to actually understand a younger generation through its music vs demonizing and blowing us off.
This song kind of foreshadowed his death, he died not too far from a train track heading home when a man with a weapon came and “took him” “he laughed at the sight of me” and “while this evil fuck laugh at you” his killer posted a video laughing and throwing the money he stole “dressed for winter weather but the summer rays were kissing me” he was wearing a hoodie and jean jacket in June “his frequency distorted quick I can see it in his image” I’m sure when X saw his killer he immediately knew and the last one “could of had a son or daughter now what you finna do?” He found out his girlfriend was pregnant a couple weeks before his death
Such a heavy track, I love your breakdown of the songs especially when you add the psychology in there. Really helps understand the song but always my own feelings I am dealing with feels like I am able to make more sense of this confusion.
Great video, keep up the great work! I'm a big fan of your content! This song is one of my favorites. X went through so much, wished and anticipated an early death but began to grow and seek a better, more positive life only for it to be cut short. This song was almost a prediction that was accurate. 1. Dressed for winter weather: he was killed while wearing a large jacket with a hoodie under on a hot Florida day. 2. In the distance he awaited me: he made eye contact with his murderers shortly before his death. They waited for him to leave before blocking him. 3. He was about 30 minutes from home when he was killed. 4. Train tracks are located right behind the motorsport dealership he was killed at. 5. "Just a shoulder you can lean on but ain't nobody coming": I think his uncle was in the car but ran out to call for help. 6. Could've had a son or a daughter: His son Gekyume was born 3 days after X would've been 21. 7. Are you going down or up? : He was changing for the better but still questioned his fate.
The pronunciation is pretty spot on, but yeah thanks for redoing this coz I had to click off the other one, couldn't listen with the background beat they put in
I cried the whole time. The more he played the times finally up part the more it just hurt and hurt. I miss him. I wish they never did what they did those terrible people
I've been watching your videos for a few days now, and at first I wasn't sure why exactly I enjoyed them so much, but I think it's because of your utter humility. You're reacting to some really heavy stuff; stuff like $uicideboy$, or Peep, or X, and you're doing it with the intention of understanding them! I find I connect with that sort of music because it lets me express, or maybe experience the emotions and feelings the artists pour into the work, in a safe, and controlled kind of way. Many times I've heard friends judge, and talk ill of exactly those artist, without knowing what they're saying, or where they're coming from; and seeing you approach this from such a place of openness, is honestly, so refreshing. Thanks for what you're doing, and I wish you lots of success in the future!! - Neally✌️
This song is just creepy in his documentary they play this song and recreate his death, the songs is basically him predicting his death, I just can’t get over this song it just so crazy how accurate the lyrics are.
It’s no conspiracy. Xxx always predicted his own death mutiple times. Said it in the DJ akademiks interview , radio spiritual interview , spoke to devil in Miami , and train food. In the Spotify version of spoke to devil in Miami there’s a gun shot and a body dropping. X knew he was gonna die. The devil told him. But the devil also told him he would be a legend. He said let’s do it. He tells you he did. In the sad music video.. he’s trying to fight back against the devil version of himself that he sold his soul too. That’s the version of him that spoke to him in prision and in spoke to the devil in Miami
The reason he sings the last line that way is because in your final moments the pressure of the situation will literally drive you insane. And he wanted to die for such a long time and he knew he was going to die the whole situation becomes insane and whimsical
Discovered your channel a couple weeks ago and I think its really unique content! I find it really interesting hearing you talk about all different types of songs from a therapist perspective and its cool to see you vibe with the music despite the sometimes unpleasent lyrics and vocals. I love seeing the new music you react to each day, keep it up!. . Would love to hear more Lil Peep from you! My recommendations are "right here w/ horsehead", "angledust", as well as "castles" and "past the castle walls" as they kind of go together.
When he said “could’ve had a son or a daughter “ he meant it , he had a son gekyume, he knew he would die early and knew he had a child on the way , but didn’t get to see him.
I found your channel by a couple reaction channel named “Marlee and Benjamin” and I will forever be blessed because the way you talk about everything makes me understand the songs more
Toms mind blown reaction to this song is the same way I was when I first heard this song High 😭 really made me think about and dissect the lyrics, you did a great job tom, LLJ 🕊
This is honestly one of the creepiest songs I’ve ever heard, the way he raps on this, and the fact it came out after he died. I just can’t escape the feeling that he knew he was gonna die. His girlfriend was actually pregnant when he died and I’m not sure he even knew, but his sons name is Gekyume ❤️
Yes he found out about gek shortly before he died (I think it was like 2 weeks) DJ scheme said in an interview on impulsive. X also said that when he was 13 he blew out his birthday candles and his wish was to be dead by 18. His story is really sad because he wanted to die so badly all thru out his teen years and when he found success and happiness it was all took from him. It is a true shame x most definitely would be one of the most popular versatile artist in the music Industry. But this song is a very Erie song and I think he knew his fate because on insta live he said the if he were to die a horrible death it was he karma and that is what he had coming. He was so wise Beyond his years(he had issues no doubt) but is ability to turn his pain in to music that helped so many people is amazing and especially to do it before the age of 20. He had a lot of pain and depression you can hear it in his music but he will live on forever and will forever help people for years to come

love the channel man, good to hear X's voice again and hear someone give genuine input to what he did and what he was trying to accomplish. U pronounce his name fine man idk what 'they' r complaining about keep up the good man keep reacting to as much X songs as possible bro.
I loved X's music because it was moving. All X fans know he had 2 styles instrumentally like say limbo style sound vs sad type sound. His next song on this album is woah (mind in awe) super chill song compared to train food and completely different vibe, COMPLETELY.... As a hooper I liked listening to chill music while I shoot and Woah is one of my go to sounds. IMO I like relaxing X music more than the aggressive X, I say that while loving limbo and vice city style X classics. He's just one of those artists that was so great you listened to it all.
I remember I had walked home that day content with all my misery Told myself it'd get better, no clue what there was next for me Remember there was people, walking, talking in the distance I was dressed for winter weather, but the summer rays were kissing me, I, I was lost So I took a different path, in the distance he awaited me Had no weapon, I'm guessing his hands were just enough for me Was no question, I'm guessing he laughed just at the sight of me I was lost I remember I had walked home that day content with all my misery Told myself it'd get better, no clue what there was next for me Remember there was people, walking, talking in the distance I was dressed for winter weather, but the summer rays were kissing me, I, I was lost And there he was, his presence was alarming As he approached, was casual, we talked 'bout self-harming He told me, "Kid, you shouldn't be walking on your own" He smiled and laughed, and pat my back He asked, "How far are you from home?" I said, "Maybe 30 minutes" His frequency distorted quick, I've seen it in his image I should've run right fucking there- You ever woke up on a train track, with no motherfucking clothes on? Death before your eyes, you're praying to God, but ain't no response Tryna scream for hope, just a shoulder that you can lean on But ain't nobody coming, so you scream on and scream on and scream on While this evil fuck laugh at you Train getting closer, you still surprised that he battered you Tears falling harder and harder, minutes get minuscule Could've had a son or a daughter, now what you finna do? You finna die here on this train track 'Cause clearly after death, ain't no way you can find your way back Thinking 'bout your previous memories, going way back All them fucking dreams 'bout a diamond chain and a Maybach Now your time finally up Ask yourself this final question, is you going down or up? Recollecting all the moments that you never gave a fuck Now it's here, death has now arrived, time's finally up Traduci in italiano
Hey Tom. Just found your channel the other day and I'm absolutely loving your content!! A few recommendations for songs I would have: Biggie Smalls - Suicidal Thoughts Self explanitory 2pac - Better Dayz Old School chill song Tyler the Creator - November A pretty nostalgic song Kendrick Lamar - untitled 02 Song has a dark/twisted feel but I've never really listened closely to the lyrics Eminem - Like Toy Soldier I believe his song was made in 2005 about rap beef and the people who had been needlessly killed over it. Unfortunately 1 year afterwards Em's friend Proof was shoot dead in Detroit. (feel free to correct me if im wrong) Also if you're looking for the most dark Eminem song that would be the track titled "Kim". But I mean I can hardly get thru that one - it's basically about him killing his (ex)wife - so use your discretion for that one I guess. [EDIT] Also Kanye West - Eazy Kanye actually became a christian in 2019 and was in good spirits but recently he's been going thru a pretty bad (and public) divorce with Kim Kardashian. Kim's even been with some guy named Pete Davidson I think. IDK I don't follow it super close but that's basically the context you need for that one. Seems like he's in a rough spot :( Keep up the awesome videos. God bless brother
You're awesome, I can't wait to see you react to more xxxtentacion, and it takes an honest man to own up to his mistakes and you went above and beyond to remake the video! I look forward to your videos every day and click as soon as I see them. I love your Juice Wrld, Post Malone, and XXXtentacion videos and I really recommend reacting to Trippie Redd. (He was in xxxtentacions song "F*ck Love" that you reacted to and you said you really liked his part of the song). 3 song of his I recommend reacting to are "Love Scars", "Love Scars 3", and "It Takes Time".
the worst part of this is 'could of had a son or daughter now what you finna do' as he died before meeting his son. tragic life and very unfortunate. RIP X. LEGEND.
Love the videos you’ve been putting out. Definitely helps to watch them. Glad I found the channel a couple weeks ago. Would love to see you react to some Frank Ocean! -Nights -Ivy -Dear April (Side A - Acoustic) -Godspeed -White Ferrari -Self Control
Xxx ten -tah- see- yawn is how I pronounce it Which tentacion means temptation in Spanish X was incredibly in tune with the spirit world, I always thought this song was personifying his talk with Satan, but now I think you’re right it’s death, and the fact that he knew he was going to die “Maybe 30 minutes” he was 30 minutes exactly from home at his death, right next to train tracks. There’s video of him looking at the killer straight in his eyes and you can see that he knew. Crazy man. Hope you keep doing some X he was truly a beautiful genius. A demon turned angel if you will. Thanks Tom!
It's incredibly erie how this was released after his death. I still have so many questions about his death. I can't process how his death was simply put as a "robbery". There has to be more depth to this case. This trial couldn't happen any sooner to get some answers.
There was a "conspiracy theory" to this song. In an older song: "I spoke to the devil in miami, he said everything would be fine", X talks about how he meets the devil and before he knows it, the devil owns his soul. In this song he is supposed to talk about how he met the devil and now the devil is taking him. In the song there is the line: "And there he was, his presence was alarming As he approached, was casual, we talked 'bout self-harming He told me, "Kid, you shouldn't be walking on your own" He smiled and laughed, and patted my back He asked, "How far are you from home?" I said, "Maybe 30 minutes" His frequency distorted quick, I've seen it in his image I should've run right fucking there-". At the place where X was murdered, there are train tracks on the other side of the road and the place is supposed to be 30 minutes away from the house where X lived as a child. That "theory" makes the song even more intense...
In 2016 (or 15) X took a seat in No Jumper podcast. At that time he said his best storytelling song was “news/flock”, which he released in 2012 when he was +- 14yo.
This song is so powerfull especially that last line in such a interesting voice and like he predicts his own situation with dead like this great reaction people appreciate this keep it up!❤️🙏
I love your reactions, it is so cool to see you interpret the lyrics in this way and explain them so well. I think you would really like the Song The Way Life Goes by Lil Uzi Vert. Thanks again for the great reaction 👍
"I was dressed for the winter weather but the sun rays kissin me" is so deep cause X was wearing hoodie & wear another layer of jacket making it as a winter clothing. He was shot in broad day light not to forget it was also summer when he died
you went back to the son or daughter line a couple times, he had a son on the way at the time named gekyume who was born a couple years ago after he died
Since you have listened to "I spoke to the devil in Miami" in the song he says "I'm always where the sun don't shine" in "Train Food" he says "I was dressed for winter weather but the summer rays were kissing me" I've always wondering if there was any connection involved with the lyrics there.
this song reminds me of like his actual death man... like when he was in the bike shop and turned around at the people that happened to shoot him... and then the “could’ve had a son or a daughter now whatchu Finna do” like describes him, like he had a son after he died, idk man , I could be reaching badly, but idk the song just is too dark
you're saying Tentación perfectly for English. The only thing at all to get it any closer is to fully say it with a Mexican Spanish voice, but I think if someone's butthurt about that they're going too far
X-x-x-ten-tash-shaun that's how you pronounce xxxtentacion. You should react to riot. It's definitely a good song but not a sad song or anything to do with mental health.

X is always considered overrated by mainstream listeners but songs like this make me believe that he’s actually soooo underrated
and thats ong

You should definitely react to Vice City, it was his first official song and he made it when he was just 16 (!) years old
I definitely agreeee!!!
his first offical song was news/flock
Vice city was not x first song 😂

Couldn't have put it better. Kudos, bro.
Loved it. #LLJ 🕊️🕊️🖤🖤🙏🏻🙏🏻
It kinda shows that selling your soul is real, and by the time you try to turn around it is too late. RIP X
Huge x fan and this song is definitely my favorite great way of putting it
The pronunciation is pretty spot on, but yeah thanks for redoing this coz I had to click off the other one, couldn't listen with the background beat they put in
This song really describes X death so well with X son being born the way he dressed and more
I cried the whole time. The more he played the times finally up part the more it just hurt and hurt. I miss him. I wish they never did what they did those terrible people
It’s almost like X is expressing his exact mindset and feelings leading up to right before he was shot

I find it really interesting hearing you talk about all different types of songs from a therapist perspective and its cool to see you vibe with the music despite the sometimes unpleasent lyrics and vocals. I love seeing the new music you react to each day, keep it up!.
.
Would love to hear more Lil Peep from you! My recommendations are "right here w/ horsehead", "angledust", as well as "castles" and "past the castle walls" as they kind of go together.
Thanks so much Dorian! Appreciate your comments and requests 😊👍
When he said “could’ve had a son or a daughter “ he meant it , he had a son gekyume, he knew he would die early and knew he had a child on the way , but didn’t get to see him.
chills.. X came out in my high school peak.. an era i’ll forever honor 💙 i’m 22 now
I found your channel by a couple reaction channel named “Marlee and Benjamin” and I will forever be blessed because the way you talk about everything makes me understand the songs more
Thanks so much! You made my day with this comment😊👍
Toms mind blown reaction to this song is the same way I was when I first heard this song High 😭 really made me think about and dissect the lyrics, you did a great job tom, LLJ 🕊
X was very smart & a very visual person. The more&more i think abt this song its like he was visualizing his death & the day that he actually dies.
This is honestly one of the creepiest songs I’ve ever heard, the way he raps on this, and the fact it came out after he died. I just can’t escape the feeling that he knew he was gonna die.
His girlfriend was actually pregnant when he died and I’m not sure he even knew, but his sons name is Gekyume ❤️
Yes he found out about gek shortly before he died (I think it was like 2 weeks) DJ scheme said in an interview on impulsive. X also said that when he was 13 he blew out his birthday candles and his wish was to be dead by 18. His story is really sad because he wanted to die so badly all thru out his teen years and when he found success and happiness it was all took from him. It is a true shame x most definitely would be one of the most popular versatile artist in the music Industry. But this song is a very Erie song and I think he knew his fate because on insta live he said the if he were to die a horrible death it was he karma and that is what he had coming. He was so wise Beyond his years(he had issues no doubt) but is ability to turn his pain in to music that helped so many people is amazing and especially to do it before the age of 20. He had a lot of pain and depression you can hear it in his music but he will live on forever and will forever help people for years to come
Respectfully, Gekyume*

love the channel man, good to hear X's voice again and hear someone give genuine input to what he did and what he was trying to accomplish. U pronounce his name fine man idk what 'they' r complaining about keep up the good man keep reacting to as much X songs as possible bro.
You pronounced X’s name perfectly 😂 and thank you for doing this!!!
I loved X's music because it was moving. All X fans know he had 2 styles instrumentally like say limbo style sound vs sad type sound. His next song on this album is woah (mind in awe) super chill song compared to train food and completely different vibe, COMPLETELY.... As a hooper I liked listening to chill music while I shoot and Woah is one of my go to sounds. IMO I like relaxing X music more than the aggressive X, I say that while loving limbo and vice city style X classics. He's just one of those artists that was so great you listened to it all.
So glad you redid this video with the right version. Almost a completely different song
Thank you 😊👍
This song makes me shiver every single time i listen to it its soooo good
I remember I had walked home that day content with all my misery
Told myself it'd get better, no clue what there was next for me
Remember there was people, walking, talking in the distance
I was dressed for winter weather, but the summer rays were kissing me, I, I was lost
So I took a different path, in the distance he awaited me
Had no weapon, I'm guessing his hands were just enough for me
Was no question, I'm guessing he laughed just at the sight of me
I was lost
I remember I had walked home that day content with all my misery
Told myself it'd get better, no clue what there was next for me
Remember there was people, walking, talking in the distance
I was dressed for winter weather, but the summer rays were kissing me, I, I was lost
And there he was, his presence was alarming
As he approached, was casual, we talked 'bout self-harming
He told me, "Kid, you shouldn't be walking on your own"
He smiled and laughed, and pat my back
He asked, "How far are you from home?"
I said, "Maybe 30 minutes"
His frequency distorted quick, I've seen it in his image
I should've run right fucking there-
You ever woke up on a train track, with no motherfucking clothes on?
Death before your eyes, you're praying to God, but ain't no response
Tryna scream for hope, just a shoulder that you can lean on
But ain't nobody coming, so you scream on and scream on and scream on
While this evil fuck laugh at you
Train getting closer, you still surprised that he battered you
Tears falling harder and harder, minutes get minuscule
Could've had a son or a daughter, now what you finna do?
You finna die here on this train track
'Cause clearly after death, ain't no way you can find your way back
Thinking 'bout your previous memories, going way back
All them fucking dreams 'bout a diamond chain and a Maybach
Now your time finally up
Ask yourself this final question, is you going down or up?
Recollecting all the moments that you never gave a fuck
Now it's here, death has now arrived, time's finally up
Traduci in italiano
Doc you need to listen to “-in the end” by X very good song
Hey Tom. Just found your channel the other day and I'm absolutely loving your content!! A few recommendations for songs I would have:
Biggie Smalls - Suicidal Thoughts
Self explanitory
2pac - Better Dayz
Old School chill song
Tyler the Creator - November
A pretty nostalgic song
Kendrick Lamar - untitled 02
Song has a dark/twisted feel but I've never really listened closely to the lyrics
Eminem - Like Toy Soldier
I believe his song was made in 2005 about rap beef and the people who had been needlessly killed over it. Unfortunately 1 year afterwards Em's friend Proof was shoot dead in Detroit. (feel free to correct me if im wrong) Also if you're looking for the most dark Eminem song that would be the track titled "Kim". But I mean I can hardly get thru that one - it's basically about him killing his (ex)wife - so use your discretion for that one I guess.
[EDIT]
Also
Kanye West - Eazy
Kanye actually became a christian in 2019 and was in good spirits but recently he's been going thru a pretty bad (and public) divorce with Kim Kardashian. Kim's even been with some guy named Pete Davidson I think. IDK I don't follow it super close but that's basically the context you need for that one. Seems like he's in a rough spot :(
Keep up the awesome videos. God bless brother
Immortal technique Dance with the devil would be a good song to react to !
Train food literally one of my favorites ever.. the emotion in his voice dude.. felt it💚.
You're awesome, I can't wait to see you react to more xxxtentacion, and it takes an honest man to own up to his mistakes and you went above and beyond to remake the video! I look forward to your videos every day and click as soon as I see them. I love your Juice Wrld, Post Malone, and XXXtentacion videos and I really recommend reacting to Trippie Redd. (He was in xxxtentacions song "F*ck Love" that you reacted to and you said you really liked his part of the song). 3 song of his I recommend reacting to are "Love Scars", "Love Scars 3", and "It Takes Time".
Nice, thanks for the take!😊
i love how he bops his head to everything💀
Respect you for going back i didn't like the fan made one
Thank you so much 😊👍
96.5k yesterday, 97.3k subs today (right now) DUDEEEE KEEP GOING!! YOU'RE ARE SO WORTH ALL THE SUBS!!! MUCH LOVE :)
Thank you so much for the ❤️ 😊👍
the worst part of this is 'could of had a son or daughter now what you finna do' as he died before meeting his son. tragic life and very unfortunate. RIP X. LEGEND.
Love the videos you’ve been putting out. Definitely helps to watch them. Glad I found the channel a couple weeks ago. Would love to see you react to some Frank Ocean!
-Nights
-Ivy
-Dear April (Side A - Acoustic)
-Godspeed
-White Ferrari
-Self Control
Thanks so much for the requests 😊👍
Xxx ten -tah- see- yawn is how I pronounce it
Which tentacion means temptation in Spanish
X was incredibly in tune with the spirit world,
I always thought this song was personifying his talk with Satan, but now I think you’re right it’s death, and the fact that he knew he was going to die
“Maybe 30 minutes” he was 30 minutes exactly from home at his death, right next to train tracks.
There’s video of him looking at the killer straight in his eyes and you can see that he knew. Crazy man. Hope you keep doing some X he was truly a beautiful genius. A demon turned angel if you will. Thanks Tom!
It's incredibly erie how this was released after his death. I still have so many questions about his death. I can't process how his death was simply put as a "robbery". There has to be more depth to this case. This trial couldn't happen any sooner to get some answers.
X always said he wouldn’t live to be 21, and spoke about death frequently he always made it seemed like he wouldn’t live long
Yeah I think his own manifestation helped him cause this in some way too. @@truthking95
more X some suggestions Snow, Guardian Angel, Never, WingRiddenAngel
I don’t feel like you needed to reupload a different video but I appreciate it for sure. Definitely for the fans! Much love
There was a "conspiracy theory" to this song. In an older song: "I spoke to the devil in miami, he said everything would be fine", X talks about how he meets the devil and before he knows it, the devil owns his soul. In this song he is supposed to talk about how he met the devil and now the devil is taking him. In the song there is the line:
"And there he was, his presence was alarming
As he approached, was casual, we talked 'bout self-harming
He told me, "Kid, you shouldn't be walking on your own"
He smiled and laughed, and patted my back
He asked, "How far are you from home?"
I said, "Maybe 30 minutes"
His frequency distorted quick, I've seen it in his image
I should've run right fucking there-".
At the place where X was murdered, there are train tracks on the other side of the road and the place is supposed to be 30 minutes away from the house where X lived as a child.
That "theory" makes the song even more intense...
Dance with the devil by immortal technique is a great story telling song!
Patreon!😊👍
In 2016 (or 15) X took a seat in No Jumper podcast. At that time he said his best storytelling song was “news/flock”, which he released in 2012 when he was +- 14yo.
Glad you reacted to the real version I love your reactions and this song is one of the best
This song is so powerfull especially that last line in such a interesting voice and like he predicts his own situation with dead like this great reaction people appreciate this keep it up!❤️🙏
I realized you have been posting 2 times a day and man it makes me so happy you got such a beautiful soul man thank you for doing this for us 🖤🖤
Appreciate you fawnzy!😊👍
hey man you were on the wrong video but same lyrics, thank you so much for re doing it i don’t know anyone else who would do that like you
Thank you👍
Can you do Orlando next? Keep up the good work!
Orlando by X*
Second this, one of my favourite songs from him!
Was gonna comment this, I agree!
@@JayWT facts definitely too 10 In my book
I hope so too
You didn't have to do it again, but the extra work is really appreciated!
"dressed for winter weather" refers to self harm, wearing long sleeves to cover scars on his wrists
I love your reactions, it is so cool to see you interpret the lyrics in this way and explain them so well. I think you would really like the Song The Way Life Goes by Lil Uzi Vert. Thanks again for the great reaction 👍
this would be a good one
Thanks for posting this video! I was waiting for this song of X for some time😁
Please react to "A Message to Tina Belcher" by Xxxtentacion, In my opinion it is one of his most raw and real songs he made
Train food is all lyrics are related to his death. I've never seen such talented rappers in my life
Thanks you for watching this version! It gives a lot more depth with this simple instrumental, it really takes you on a trip
I want to hear you react to his xxl freshman cipher sooo badly
SCI FI by Kanye west up next? The most heartbreaking song off his new album talking about his relationship with kim
Dude who does your intro? From that music to that face, it takes a second.
Thank you so much for the reupload ! :D
This is the only channel ill ever join a patreon for i love the content
That’s so nice! Thank you so much😊👍❤️
Mooooore X!! His you g’et the point of the song 100% and his name is xxx-ten-ta-cion
Respect for re-uploading! This one gives it so much more life. Cheers
Thank you😊👍
XXXtentacion - LOOK AT ME
thank you for re doing this one!
I would really like a lyrical & musical review of 'i spoke to a devil in miami, he said it would be fine', great video!
Wait.. Your actually a legend for redoing this with the official version
Thank you 😊👍
You should react to “Empty” by Juice WRLD.
It’s a very sad song, I would love for you to break down the lyrics to my favorite Juice song. Thank you!
you should watch his documentary. it would definitely be cool to see you react to it. especially the ending. they play this song in it.
"I was dressed for the winter weather but the sun rays kissin me" is so deep cause X was wearing hoodie & wear another layer of jacket making it as a winter clothing. He was shot in broad day light not to forget it was also summer when he died
Whilst this is probably not what the bar ment I saw things one Reddit saying the this refers back to his XXL freshman verse and I talked to the devil
Trust me bro you have great content. Though you need to listen to the rawest, most emotional Juice Wrld song. It's called "Sometimes"
This scares me!😊👍
you went back to the son or daughter line a couple times, he had a son on the way at the time named gekyume who was born a couple years ago after he died
Since you have listened to "I spoke to the devil in Miami" in the song he says "I'm always where the sun don't shine" in "Train Food" he says "I was dressed for winter weather but the summer rays were kissing me" I've always wondering if there was any connection involved with the lyrics there.
Well said!😊👍
this song reminds me of like his actual death man... like when he was in the bike shop and turned around at the people that happened to shoot him... and then the “could’ve had a son or a daughter now whatchu Finna do” like describes him, like he had a son after he died, idk man , I could be reaching badly, but idk the song just is too dark
You should really do Orlando by X I love your channel I think it'd be an interesting one
Been w you since the start of these videos. Glad to see you on the come up, definitely deserved. Keep up the great work! 🙏🏻
Thank you so much for sticking around all this time. Appreciate your support!😊👍
Your pronunciation is absolutely spot on👌!
you're saying Tentación perfectly for English.
The only thing at all to get it any closer is to fully say it with a Mexican Spanish voice, but I think if someone's butthurt about that they're going too far
Honestly you're saying it the best I've heard of any reactor on TH-cam
Long live the king 💫
RIPAPYK 💙
love all the content, keep up the amazing work ❤ please do more xxxtentacion 💫🙏 thank you for your kind words
Thanks so much Alex!😊👍
X-x-x-ten-tash-shaun that's how you pronounce xxxtentacion. You should react to riot. It's definitely a good song but not a sad song or anything to do with mental health.
definitely need more $uicideBoy$!!! maybe a little GHOSTEMANE too
BRO LOVED THIS VID PLEASE DO REVENGE BY X
Tom, you are pronouncing it absolutely right, it's exactly how X himself said it in the interviews
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE!😆
Xxxtentacion also had a son that he didn’t get to know unfortunately. Again resembling the song
