His mother died when he was 18 years old and on March 30 he turns 30, and the part where he says that she will no longer be here when he has children and already hits because in August his baby will be born🥺
Yeah and in one interview he stated that when he heard this song back, he remembers how angry be felt but that now he just wished he could talk to her from a more mature perspective
Thank you for sharing this. It makes a song already so personal even more real to us. It also makes me feel his pain even more. I can safely bet he'll be a phenomenal father ! I have not heard anything about his father though ??? You'd think I lived under a rock because only recently did a friend send me one of his songs. I was immediately addicted to him and his story telling rap songs ! I have constant chill bumps , which seems to be normal! I can't get enough of him, again, normal. Why he hasn't won a Grammy? Abnormal. Responding to Vale0822, if im.seeing it correctly. I can't find my glasses right now ❤
This song will save people's lives. NF is so special to be so vulnerable taking all of us through his trauma and painful journey of healing album by album. There is no better artist in the world
Just a little fact...when this song was recorded at the end of the song when he was crying and talking he made everyone leave the studio so he could be alone. I get emotional no matter how many times I hear this song. You said it best...NF has the ability to make you feel like you are going thru the experiences he sings about even though you never have experienced it urself. His passion and emotions are felt in every single word he says. NF is the truth 💯 Great reaction....new subscriber here!
Another Grammy worthy video by him is "Let You Down", but all of his stuff will make you think. "Mansion", "Paid My Dues", and "Leave Me Alone" are three of my favorites by him.
Those that are truly dealing with depression are masters of hiding it, so, look out for your friends and loved ones. Not all substance abusers are using for a high; they're using it to escape something. Spread love. Offer support. Let those you care about know you are there for them, and prove it.
What if...What if it's harder than you think. I mean...there are two kids who are so..COOL at church and we both get abused but we can't talk to each other because we're both to shy. I just look at them, and then we both look away again. It's so...HARD.
Another note to add is that everyone has a vice when they are dealing with trauma, depression, anxiety, etc. My “drug” was work. I was a workaholic for some years before I recognized I was doing exactly what my dad has been doing his whole life. He was running from all of his problems to work. I was running from all of mine to work. It is unhealthy to work upwards of 100 hour weeks when you don’t need to.
You can feel the anguish he feels. I've very personally known people on every side of this. This is becoming more often than not the situation with today's children, parents and grandparents. I raised stepchildren whose mother very rarely showed up to get her babies for visitation. We lied for that woman so many times to try to keep them from knowing she just didn't even think to come. We chased her down sometimes so they could see her. They packed their little suitcases so many times, staring out my living room window and door waiting on somebody that never came. Or called. They finally got old enough to know why she didn't show. ( It was alcohol not pills but still addiction) They didn't want to hear our excuses or her excuses. One of them, especially, had so much rage inside him. He's grown and he still does. He doesn't direct his rage at her though but at the rest of the world. He has false memories that she implanted in him as a young adult that he believes. He says his mother raised him although he rarely ever saw her. He's angry at his father and me, his siblings because he truly believes we deserted him. The little girl, now a woman, has several addictions, has 4 children. Ive had her oldest daughter since she was a baby. She hasn't seen her mother since she was 4 and she's almost 17 yrs old. Her next youngest sister is with her father so the 2 girls see each other and have an incredible bond with each other. Neither want to see their bio mother as of now. She's still addicted to pills and street drugs and still lies to them when she does talk to them. That doesn't happen often. Her 2 youngest children were twins. She lost them to another state she'd moved to temporarily. They were adopted out before we even knew what was happening. She, the mother, knew but not us. We would have taken them in, as well. That's a lot, but it's still only the tip of this very dysfunctional iceberg. It all began over 30 years ago by a woman, with reasons known only to her, decided she'd rather abuse alcohol than see her beautiful children. Their father and i did our best to give them a normal, loving childhood. Mothers dont realize their importance in their children's lives, especially their daughters. This song breaks me down every time I hear it. It's helped me to understand their feelings and know it wasn't anything i did or didn't do. This and soòoò many of nf's songs help me, as well as helping my stepchildren's children. My grandchildren. The ripples reach out and affect people for years and years. Thank you , nf. Thank you guys too for listening to ans understanding and feeling his pain in his songs. It's a wonderful thing you do when you listen to music you otherwise wouldn't and bring it to the attention of hundreds of other people that need to hear these songs. Salud !!!!!!!!!
I can relate to this song and on a whole different level. One parent is a drug addict and the other is in prison for life. Shit hurts man ,knowing they chose a "temporary happiness" over me. But I'm learning from it. I know the kind of parent I wanna be for my kids.
@@shipirategirl7070 I just grew up knowing I wanted better than what they gave. my little brother when down the same path and started smoking meth at 14(with my mom) he went to prison and I took him in and got him straight. luckily for me he's 10 years clean. I've basically cut all contact with her instead of letting her continually hurt me. hope you've done the same
@@jessemccullough2188I wanted the same thing.. i wanted better for my kids than what she gave me. I only ever see my my mother when she is at my Nana's house. I am kind to her as long as she is kind to me for my nana's sake. My Nana is the person who really raised me. She took my brother and I in when my mother didn't want us. And my dad well, I actually have a better relationship with him than I do my mom and he's in prison, but I also think that is why I have a close relationship with him. Hes clean now and he's at least trying...I've learned never to expect anything from either of them and guard my heart.
I'm a daughter that watched her father through drug addiction and now I'm a mother with an opioid addiction cuz my doctor prescribed them to me after spending 10 yrs at sick kids hospital in Toronto..but no matter how my body got addicted... im now on methadone weening off because I do love my kids enough at least to try ..and if I fail, I'll try again.. great reaction u two. I'm a new subscriber and I liked this video
I wish you the very best on this journey. I hope you've made it by now. I also hope if ever you fall, don't let it get you down or ser you back. Just get back up and begin again. As long as you're really trying and never give up, you will make it. Love ❤️ and prayers 🙏
I've been the child of an addict, my mother left due to my father's abuse, my father hung himself, I've become the addict, lost my kids, almost lost everything. This song hits me in every way. But I brought my kids home. And I got. clean. But it's.not easy. Especially when they take.your kids. Of the 18 girls I went to rehab with I am the only one who got their kids back and kept them. The system is fucked up. Money is poured into foster care and Foster families and nothing is really allocated for re-unifying families. Long-term and short-term supportive services for families are a joke. Addicts are demonized in the medical community, socially, and in the criminal justice system. It's not designed for success....none of it
I agree wholeheartedly. The system is broken. Huge props to you for loving yourself and your babies enough to make it despite the pitfalls in the " system". Way to go, little momma ❤
I came across your guys's reaction and while I was incarcerated in prison at Ohio reformatory for women for my second 5 year prison number at the time my daughter was only 17 and she sent this to me and it crushed me but also made me take a look at everything that happened the first time I went she was five and my son was 10 she is now 23 and having my first Grandbaby we continue to work on our relationship then my son and I do too but that's when I start really listening to a lot of NF's songs and I started listening to more NF songs and downloading them on JPay onto my player thank you
You guys just went straight to the heavy stiff right here. Into, Mansion, All I Have and Wake Up are the next if you plan to do the NF Journey. I have a suggestion for you guys channel, this is a freebie, you should ask each other what you think the song is going to be about before you listen to the song. This is a good feature and then you can comment after the song about how close you were to predicting the subject matter. Great video. You can tell that his Mom really loved her kids. You can also see how much they loved spending time with Mom. Very powerful.
The Time I've first listened to this song. I called my Mum after it, telling her how grateful I am to actually have her in my live. Guess it's the little things that matter. Mums are the best, tell them you love them from time to time.
This video was nice u cant watch this and not feel something in you're heart I just started reacting to u guys today I've seen NF twice seeing him again in OKC this man is above any rapper 🤷♂️
That moment when you have to listen to "Hit me up" by the G.O.A.T & rap the lyrics aggresive AF to get out yo feelings & activate your gangsta 😂 You can hear the hurt & pain in his voice bro. Then when he started talking at the end, I lost it 😪😔 I'm so caught off guard...#SPEECHLESS #PURETALENT #LEGEND #AMASTERPIECE
I have been listening since the beginning... every album is amazing...u r right when you say even if u have not experienced it feels like u did... his music has been a influence from me.. I been through trauma losing y wife to cancer and raising r son.. his music relates to me so much!
Every time I hear this song I think of my dad he’s dying of cirrhosis of the liver and refuses to stop drinking so this shit hits home way to fucking close
If you're interested on going on the "NF Journey", my son and I have been making a list of all the songs that are important, the songs that have videos, and just for fun some hype tracks with lyric videos. We started making it when his second studio album was released (it includes the first studio album) and it's updated to his most recent release. Let me know and I'll post it in the comments 🙂
I want to understand because in some since i been through the same thing my mom killed in the south side of houston but i don't understand anything it makes me reminisce on the most tragic things that happen to people in life.
Your audio is going in and out...I love your reaction!! She died when he was 18.... when I saw this... my respect for him is huge!! I’m 47 and love his music... If you want real stick with him... He never disappoints and has a song called Real... he has so many good songs ♥️🙏🏼♥️
Literally, all of his stuff is amazing. I think he has maybe 2 songs I don’t care for out of his entire catalog. That being “chasing” and “trauma”. Good songs, just not my style. Other then that, if prolly listened to every other song of his, on average, 5-10 times. He’s suppose to be collaborating with Hopsin and Tech on his new mixtape coming out later this month. I haven’t been this excited for a collab since prolly em and logic, or logic and Joyner.
Im new to your Channel but i like the way you react. Maybe react to mansion By nf next time. Or if you want some different Rapper. Konan-last night in la Greetings from Germany keep it up!
This song is so heartbreaking. But what it should tell you is do not judge others because if you don’t know them you have no damn idea what they are going through. And sometimes even if you do know them you have no idea. Be kind to each other
Sadly this entire song is a literal one to one of my childhood... But I ain't got the vocals, so I guess I'm still figuring out how to express this absolute shit.... It hurts every single day, I wake up and I just ask why..... I guess it's pretty fucked right......
You should react to Mansion next because it gives you a little more insight to his past and it helps you to understand his music that comes after Mansion.
My fav part is that despite all the anger and hurt and painful memories...still he ends the movie with "wish you were here" and her smiling.
Yes😔
Everytime I watch it I cry u can legitimately feel the emotion and heart in this song it’s mind blowing💙
His mother died when he was 18 years old and on March 30 he turns 30, and the part where he says that she will no longer be here when he has children and already hits because in August his baby will be born🥺
This was sad
Yeah and in one interview he stated that when he heard this song back, he remembers how angry be felt but that now he just wished he could talk to her from a more mature perspective

You guy are real man. No fake bs i respect it
I love when they say "it's going to be heavy, I'm ready." They are never ready 🤣
i am an old lady now 64, but i still feel this pain from my childhood, both parent alcoholics
Pain has no age limits. Neither does healing ❤. I hope you begin to heal ❤
Listen to NF remember this. Great song
Such a important song 🎶 on the NF journey! New music 🎶 is coming soon here in 2023!🙌Great reaction!

After this song was over I felt the need to call my own mom and tell her I love her and thank her for being there for me 😢❤

I think any of his videos could win awards for best short film.
NF is dropping a new song tomorrow. Can't wait
I like The video and subscribe 🔥🤪
12:28 he made a song talking to his younger self could “Nate”
Totally recommend “paid my dues” or “leave me alone” those are really good and are pretty fast pace!!
She lost custody of the kids when they were the ages in the video. Her addiction blinded her to the fact that her boyfriend was abusing Nate.
Thanks for the reaction! I agree. I think this is one of his best tracks- really difficult, but powerful.
I came across your guys's reaction and while I was incarcerated in prison at Ohio reformatory for women for my second 5 year prison number at the time my daughter was only 17 and she sent this to me and it crushed me but also made me take a look at everything that happened the first time I went she was five and my son was 10 she is now 23 and having my first Grandbaby we continue to work on our relationship then my son and I do too but that's when I start really listening to a lot of NF's songs and I started listening to more NF songs and downloading them on JPay onto my player thank you
NF is so underrated and ignored because he's not talking about drugs whip's and tricks
Guys you need to do therapy session that song is amazing🙏🙏 it’s amazing!!
You gotta listen to Mansion, another deep one
love y’all reaction definitely subscribed❤️
All I'm gonna say to this is...It's fucking scary seeing drug addicts. I've seen to many of them. I'm so traumatized because of them.
I think the majority of us NF fans have a slight addiction to watching reactions to this song, just saying
sometimes with addiction they don't need to be dead for them to dead to you. my mom is a 60 year old meth addict and don't even know her really.

You can hit the left arrow key to go back 10 seconds.
This song is so heartbreaking. But what it should tell you is do not judge others because if you don’t know them you have no damn idea what they are going through. And sometimes even if you do know them you have no idea. Be kind to each other
Ya'll should listen to mansion and only
It's actually two stories actually happened to him he wrote a song about it
Keep up the great nf reactions! And please react to his new song Clouds! You guys will love it
Sadly this entire song is a literal one to one of my childhood...
But I ain't got the vocals, so I guess I'm still figuring out how to express this absolute shit....
It hurts every single day, I wake up and I just ask why.....
I guess it's pretty fucked right......
Master Storyteller
Hear "remember this"
listen to clouds the newest song of NF
It has been a year but do some more NF.
Branch into music you wouldnt normally listen to, FFDP- Gone Away, wrong side of heaven, or really just anything to that degree
You should react to Mansion next because it gives you a little more insight to his past and it helps you to understand his music that comes after Mansion.
Hope you get caught up soon. He dropped a new one, Clouds.

Being white in the rap game can be tough. Y’all need to stop separating ppl and belittling other ppls struggles dude
The feeling is lost every time you pause and talk smh uggh annoying
