    The end is actually genuine, he was literally crying in the booth but decided to keep it rolling, and decided to just leave it in the actual song. This song is what made me an nf fan, the raw emotion passion and transparency he displays in this song is so real, something that many people have been through and continue to go through... probably not the best reaction to watch while drunk but but I love your reaction one of the best I've seen! Much love brother!

    The thing about this song is his mom didn't just leave him once. She left him over and over and over again and then she finally overdosed and left him for good. She was continually choosing drugs over him over and over again. It says she would call and say she was coming to get them (for a visitation) then she would call again and say she wasn't and he was humiliated. He also says he feels like he lost something that he never had, because he had a mom, but he never really had a mom because she was continually leaving him for drugs. Despite all that he says he wishes he would have called. If you listen to the song "Mansion" he says one of the WORST things he wrote on the wall was when he found out he was losing his mom and he wrote he wished he would have called.

      After his mom and dad's divorce, when he was very young and mom's pill addiction along with her boyfriend abusing Nate, when he was about 6, he was taken out of her care and put under his dad's care. In this video, he and his 2 sisters were there on a supervised visitation. His mom died from overdose the year Nate graduated high school.

I was with her for 16 yrs and i watched her slowly kill herself with pills, and in 1999 they got her. And not a day goes by that i don’t wonder how could you do that, or how could i have helped. This song has helped me through it. And Man i feel for NF cuz i know Exactly how he feels

She has never been there for me and my brothers and I can’t bring myself to forgive her because all the times she has let me down. All my life I told her I wanted to do something to make her proud of me in football and this year we just so happened to win the state championship and she doesn’t even know cause I can’t talk to her that much cause she’s in rehab, thanks

      I don't cry in a emotional way, I've seen too many deaths, I'm immune to the emotional pain of losing anything.
      But that last part of the song had my eyes burning, as if my wanted to melt whatever tears I needed to get out. I still couldn't cry, cuz I never had the heart tough enough to watch it, or listen to it

    Thank you for taking the time to listen and watch this. I've never had a song impact me like this one. I've probably heard it at least 100 times and have cried 99 of those times. Nate is 27 now but she passed when he was 18 before his HS graduation. He has mentioned in older interviews that he does have 2 sisters. I listen to my NF playlist daily and I cry at it everyday. Him performing this on stage is so difficult to watch.
    Know, Destiny, One Hundred, Real...those are pretty hype songs!

    18:48 i relate a lot to that sentence. Every person reacts differently to the circumstances around them.
    My mom was a drug addict, an alcoholic, a smoker and end of may 2018, she also died. Not because of an overdose or relation to the alcohol or the drugs, but the drugs and alcohol played their part in destroying and weakening her body.
    So i faulted her a lot for things in my life and her part as a "role model". I've never taken drugs, smoked marihuana like once or twice (wasn't for me), disliked it. I mostly only drink on special occasions or when i feel like it. I have 3 siblings tho..
    Let me tell you, they reacted differently to her as a role model. My two brothers are drug addicts which one of them is also an alcoholic, and my sister also does both. It's hard seeing your mom leave her weakened body and watching her kids, my siblings do the same stuff like her. I struggle a lot with anxiety and depression even before she died, same as my sister, my other 2 brothers don't though. Not saying they're not sad or not grieving, but it's different and i think all 3 of them still resent my mom a lot. I could go on for days, but i'ma try and bring it to the end where i loop around to your sentence.
    People always tell me that they're somewhat proud of me, that i saw and experienced all of that and didn't become the same way. A lot of relatives that knew and saw how we were raised say that.
    It is not something i am proud of at all though. It's the easy way, numbing your pain, succumbing to unconsciousness and i don't want that for myself. I make my life what i want to be my life and go and live that. I can change my life, i am the master of myself, only me, no one else.
    As i said, i used to fault her a lot, but after i moved out, i realized i can change my life.
    I really miss her, even after all we went through. She was my mom and when things came crashing down, she always had an open door, an open heart and listened.

    I just subscribed and am really sincerely enjoying going thru your backlog of videos; I like that you're not afraid to be emotional or let a song affect you, bc thats what music is supposed to do, make you feel something. NF is one of, if not the best, storyteller thru song that ive ever come across. Also, as a side note, im 36 and a recovering drug addict myself. Ive been clean for almost 5 yrs but it was probably the hardest thing Ive ever done in my life thus far. Ive lost ppl to that struggle and have always tried to empathize with what i was doing to my family and friends- but addiction is a very selfish disease. Im just glad I survived it. This song makes my heart ache for everyone thats lost someone to that sort of thing, but also makes me appreciate that Im still here. ❤

    Nothing to apologize for sir. Alot of us end up with the same problems we grew up with. It's nice to see a grown man have empathy and be able to show emotion. What's amazing is how easily those problems carry on to the kids dealing with it even though it's the one thing they wished would stop.

    dont need to apologize for having feelings man im a 21 year old guy whos mom walked out on me and my family when I was 8. sometimes not hearing from her for over a year so many lines in this song hit home with me the first time i heard it i cried and i still get chocked up even after hearing it over 100 times.

    I think it’s amazing you cried. That’s what music does. What real music does. It brings us to a place where we feel every word. I still can’t hear this song without getting choked up. You can hear the pain. He’s truly an amazing artist.

    I don't comment much on your video's but you mentioned not being able to imagine what it would be like coping with your parent(s) killing themselves with addictions. I lost my father to suicide who was also an extremely severe alcoholic and I was 20 when he shot himself. The pain of losing him and having no way of helping or preventing it has traumatized me for the last 8-9 years. I have not been and will never again be the same person I once was after the day my father left... Thank you for this wonderful video reaction by the way.

    me too. i didn't go through what nf went through but there's just too much soul in his music (in this song) that i couldn't help but weep. i felt him so much, i cried like i was there with him. he's a great artist. such a rare find.

    We subs love strong ass men and it takes a strong man to break down on camera. Don't apologize for having feelings cause if this doesn't cut you deep, then you have no heart. Thank you for doing what hundreds refused to do while reacting to this specific video & that is showing us who YOU are. We want to connect to who we sub too, you have something special with your soul. You earned a new sub with this one! #newsubalert
    Listen to more NF, they aren't all this heartwrenching lol.

    Hi, Never I ever saw such an emotional video, ...... it's been 2 years. But I just saw this video.......... at home. I am and 58 y.o. man. and I cried from beginning to the end of the song. I can relate to this!!! and his lyrics.... just hit you in the stomach really hard..... life can be very hard. we all have our own stories. we just became very good at hiding it from everyone else. ....... NF did the most difficult thing, he took the MASK away! Respect my brother. so much respect!!! ... respect for the pain..... respect for being brave enough to put his life into words...... respect for moving on with his life and became a successful singer/rapper in the USA....... Respect......, and tears,.. your tears and my tears, tears! respect my friend and my brother from the other side of the Atlantic Ocean. Respect to NF!!!!!! Love from this small but great country - Portugal. Peace.

      Frick off with your desperate sub channels lol, I usually love his reactions, but I thought the same exact thing! And when he stopped it so early in the song and asked for us to tell him in the comments if she died or not...I just wanted to shout "watch the video and listen to the song! You'll get your answers!" 😂

  • @bethm5791
    @bethm5791 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Edit: that last verse always make me tear up too. The whole song is heart breaking and beautifully written and the aggression and pain in the rap are vivid. “Music is the only place that I can go to speak to you” gets me every time.
    My boyfriends parents both died in a similar way. He can’t even listen to it. He did once but he can’t anymore. The ending is what gets me knowing he kicked everyone out of the studio and recorded the song and they picked parts to use. You feel every word he says. He’s so talented.

  • @eto5835

    Man, this song again :'(
    Gets the tissues*
    If you want some hype music: Warm Up, Grinding, Green lights, All i do, Statement (only bars), one hundred and real
    Highly recomend Real, Warm up and Grinding
    2009 was not a good year for NF.
    The lady in the corner was for seeing if she was fit to watch over her kids. (dont remember what its called)
    the last minute the producer left the studio and kept recording and let NF just let out all his emotions
    He was staying with his father after all this

  • @LolGurrl91
    @LolGurrl91 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    You do NOT need to apologize for crying, it's such a natural reaction to have to something so real and tragic. This guy is so raw and real, I can't imagine what it must be like to lose someone so close and dear to me... But I do know what it's like to worry about a loved one who struggles with an addition. I have an older brother who is on the autism spectrum and he used to struggle with his addiction to booze. He relied on it so much because it helped him feel better, it gave him a temporary reprieve from his inner struggles. He would go to the liquor store or pub nearly every day just to get his drinks. It became the only thing he could think and talk about, he wanted to numb himself everyday and it broke the hearts of my parents and myself to see him sinking so deep into a downward spiral... Thankfully, he is doing much better now! He's in an assisted living home with caring staff and other people with neurological or mental disorders with whom he has made good friendships and connections. Although he still has times where he wants to drink, we encourage him a lot to stay away from it and we won't talk about or have beer around him when we have him over to visit because we want him to continue his journey to recovery. This song hit close to home and I cried, too. So don't worry, it's a very human reaction to have :')

  • @andrew9870
    @andrew9870 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just recently seen your channel and this is the first video I watched. Don't ever apologize for being real. My father commit suicide when I was 14 and I'm 26 now and I still have a hard time listening to songs about suicide or mental health related issues because it brings back way too many memories. Your reaction was super genuine and that makes me respect you even more. Loved the reaction. Subbed and following. I know I'm a year late, been listening to nf for 3 years and he's a masterpiece. Again.. great reaction. Bless your heart ❤.

    First time listening to NF. This is probably too much for you tube but I lost my mom when I was 22, found her past away from a seizure. Got on pills for two years, came home one day saw my daughter almost 3 yrs old, she gave me a big hug and my eyes opened wide. Been clean for 10 yrs now, still wonder where I'd be had my wife not stuck by me. Real talk. Loved the reaction, i was crying right along with you.

  • @erayburn6354
    @erayburn6354 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    OMG, this is absolutely heartbreaking! I spent nearly 30 years of my life begging, crying, pleading, negotiating, bargaining...anything and everything...to try to get my dad to stop taking pills. Nothing worked. You can't make someone else change unless & until they want to change themselves. For some people though, sadly, that day never comes. Finally lost my dad in 2009. But this happens far too often & is far too common in society today. Nearly everyone has been touched by something like this or knows someone who has. Tragic 💔

    I understand both sides of this story. My dad killed himself three days after my first daughter was born because of drugs. I was already addicted to drugs before that happened and unsurprisingly I became worse after. Here i am now three years clean with four kids. Man this song cuts deep.

    @zacharyryanmcdowell32 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I’ve watched a couple of your reactions and after this one I am an official subscriber and will be on the look out for new videos. There are a ton of people out there doing reactions but hardly any will show any real emotion when it comes to a track like this. People have become so numb with all the tragedy and controversy going on in the world and it’s like they can’t express themselves because they feel like they will be judged because of it. I am here to say I have cried and teared up probably a dozen times at this track and video and that’s being modest. People need to be able to express their emotions and you get that. From what you said in this reaction you haven’t even been through anything within your family when it comes to addiction but you can still connect and feel what other people may be going through and even show the emotion with it and to me that’s a bit special. Keep up the epic reactions and don’t change.
