YES 😭😭😞 im really just trying to stay afloat right now, im treading water below. so many classes so much workload im really really trying. and i really miss home :(
Lying in my dorm room half way through my second year just crying to this song, I'm exhausted and unmotivated, everything I do feels wrong but people are telling me I'm doing so well, I just don't see it at all 😭 in the moment I can see the work I'm creating and it feels big, then I look back and it looks like I've not done anything just wasted a few months... nobody talks about this side of Uni
You got this, just believe in yourself and put your head down and keep going! One day, you'll look back on today and be proud of all the work you've accomplished!
Everything is gonna be fine........I am studying in my dream uni now but it is not like I imagined it to be...honestly I am not liking this ......I was far more happier when I was just dreaming than I am now living the dream ......things will not go as planned but everything happens for a reason ......I am blessed to get to live my dream life .....have hope and stay safe
This is me. so much. Thank you, I know it hurts, it hurts for me too, but... it's nice to know I'm not alone, and hope that we can make it out the other side.
A song about anxiety, uncertainty, & trying to find our place in this world. Sounds like most people when we realize it's time to truly grow up. Welcome to my Spotify playlist.
Lying in my dorm room for half a year, just crying when listening to this song, exhausted and demotivated, doing everything feels wrong but everyone tells me I'm doing great, I just don't feel like it
As someone the right side of my degree I can tell you it took me six years when it should’ve been four and the grade was a 2:2 when I wanted a 1:1. And I am fine. I’m a few years into a job I didn’t think I wanted doing something more specific than what my degree was and making half of it immediately redundant. I’ve made it my own, made friends had laughs and stupid stories of things I’ve fucked up along the way. I’m going to get a promotion (I’ve been told it’ll be soon) into an area I’ve kinda fallen in love with the work with two levels of bosses above me who I respect and who respect me (so far of course). None of this means plain sailing will continue but going from dark days fearing my third year repeating would be my last in Covid to now feels worlds apart and watching others go through similar experiences makes me emotional for the hurt I know you feel. All I can say is the message at the end of this song is really the lesson no one can earnestly teach you in college, but you need to see that the feelings you have right now are okay. Piece by piece give yourself the chance to pick yourself up and try again. In the words of another Irish artist, Samuel Beckett: “Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better.”
I'm a college instructor and I approve so much of this song. Thank you for the lovely melody and the heartfelt emotions you've filled this song with. Edit: I've seen how heavy major subjects pile on work for the students and I prefer in-class activities rather than lots of coursework. I want students to learn and not get burnt out.
@@Monkecandance I do, I see how some instructors just pile on work and force students to cram. My method is more towards helping them understand and learning how to think for themselves.
This song summons endless stream of emotions. This is ART, I haven't heard song that clicks my heart as much as this. Good luck with your future works!
From an older viewpoint, You have touched upon a mental truth that most people never discover. I find myself almost void of anxiety. Because the majority or the pressure we receive from peers is mostly useless. Your peers can't ever know what would make you truly happy. They want to HELP you be happy, to help you succeed.But the reality of it all is they will miss the mark. If only by a little bit its still not for you. Life is about finding peace in whatever form you chose. Some chose religion, some choose a lack of confrontation, some choose silence or something else. You have time, but don't put your happiness and peace off. Or you will become upset with yourself for wasting such a precious resource you could have made more of. I find your voice peaceful and I really enjoy it. I will listen to this a few more times and enjoy my time listening to the wonder and curiosity of what the world will bring for you in the future. But for the moment, have some of my gratitude for helping me inadvertently find a small slice of peace. I really hope you find some yourself.
I'm two years into college and I still feel this every single day. I feel lost even though I have a destination in mind, and I try hard and try to keep my head high, but it's so difficult because I feel like I can't do it like everybody else can. It is so incredibly uplifting to hear you sing about these thoughts and worries and remind everyone we just hafta breathe.
I’m only in grade 9 going into 10 in a few months and I feel the same way you do right now. Just know you’re not alone, you don’t have to plan your whole life in the moment. You’re doing so well and I love you for it
Plenty of people feel some form of this during their lives, and, to be honest, there really isn't anything you can do about it. So please don't feel alone in what you're going through and try to trust in yourself and your decisions more. Easier said than done, I know, but the only way out it is through
Been hearing this song a lot lately. I gotta say, as someone about a month and a half away from graduating college, it gets better but in a lot of ways it stays the same. You lock yourself out a lot less, you meet a lot of new people, you stop talking to a lot of old people, you still feel frazzled and like you're falling behind, but you make some solid friends and they're all in the same boat as you.
This is my first year out of college, and it’s so weird. I miss it so much. In high school you want it to end as soon as possible, but college goes by way too quick
This song is really great: i really like the tempo, the pacing and how aimee uses her voice and the lyrics... man. You put the feelings of everyone in those lyrics, this song is pure gold 🔥🔥🔥
I am 20 years old, i go in an italian university, i work 30 hours a week, i do my best every day to do everything and make people i love proud of me, but listening to this song i cry like a baby, it has never happened to me, thank you
"the one thing that's important above everything else is to learn not to put all this heavy pressure on myself" ❤ Studiare e lavorare allo stesso tempo è una cosa molto ardua e impegnativa, se devi farlo fallo ma ricorda di essere sempre gentile con te stesso
You're doing your best and that's great don't give up it'll all be worth it one day but don't forget to give yourself breaks when studying. Keep going! ~~
You have an amazing talent. I get sick of music in all genres because the songs are all the same. Not this one. It’s creative, catchy, uniquely structured, and is about emotion. That’s literally everything I wanted out of a song. Keep up the great work!
I'm at university and feel like life is going so quickly yet slowly at the same time, like I'm too old but not ready to grow up, and this song captures that feeling perfectly. I am literally crying to this right now. Incredible song thank you Aimee ❤
Me too , It's good feeling when you think you're the only one in the world living a thing , but turn out not to be alone and there's a lot of people like you ✨
My college experience was different from this one. It involved lots of screaming and violence fueled into a chaotic 13 weeks. Plus, don't forget the 45-minute bus ride for a 5 min trip with your head in your lap the entire time late at night. The only way you could enter this "college" I went to.
I need this as a soundtrack in a movie. Concept: A young girl spends all her life trying to meet the expectations of everyone around her and closing on to the end of the movie she's at her breaking point, but realizes shes just started college, shes young and has time in her hands. The music plays in the background and you see her making friends, enemies, having happy and sad times, but you can tell she's happy.
Movie title: Hard Choices Soundtrack Album order: 2 minutes into the movie: 2 Days into College - aimee carty (the girl enters college being accepted. 30 minutes into the movie: My Love is mine all mine. - mitski (meeting the love of her life) 50 Minutes into the movie: Mean - taylor swift (making enemies, and friends.) 70 minutes into the movie: take me to church - hozier (getting in trouble and realizing the college is evil) 120 minutes into the movie (the ending part) : Out of the Woods - Taylor swift (escaping the college)
It took everything in me to not scream and burst into tears. This song hits TOO CLOSE to home as I just became a new dad and have decided to go back to school to finish up my Master’s. Even as I typed this comment, I’m holding back tears. 😭❤️ Love this song.
Hey bro, you’ll do great. Might not feel like it now, but one day you’ll be sending your kid to college and you’ll be crying all over again watching them the road you walked before them.
This hit hard as a middle schooler taking a bunch of high school classes 1-3 grades above myself. I always put so much pressure on myself and people go like “you’re doing so well” but they don’t see the overwhelming pressure I have inside. Thank you :)
don't let your expectations get too heavy, if you're in middle school capable of high school academics you're already achieving so much. hang in there!!
@@pinkapple3619 thank you, I try to lower them (last year I got perfect scores on all my tests) but it’s just really hard lol. Like I got straight A’s too 😭
@@luniegirl all perfect scores 100/100 at all subjects is just very impressive. But my school? Oh hell nah, even the new educatipn system put like a high schools things into our subjects. Well they make it more simple and seems easy, but our teacher will keep the tradition. So the new education system arent really change our way to study, they just add more things to books and make the hard things gone, but our teacher still want us to understand all of that. Like they cant pick one education system, so its like forced to learn two things that u dont even know which one are more important. Perfect scores? In ur dream. One of mf that are kind of nerdy need to wear glasses after like 1 and a half years studying here cuz its really that hard and she only got 1 perfect score. Most or ALL of the smart students here(including me) cannot even get 95 or higher if we doesnt cheat or do some teamwork. Cuz why? Its.. Just that impossible, well math is still doable but the rest? No, just.. No, we cant.
I literally get tears in my eyes when I hear "The one thing that's important above everything else is to learn not to put all this heavy pressure on myself", it just causes an avalanche of emotion when I hear it and literally makes me teary eyed 🥺
@@AlbertAndreiDan I think it's the combination of both the words she's singing which feel so, so relatable, and the way the music/melody goes at that specific moment. The lyrics alone are still hard hitting, and the melody alone is still beautiful, but it's the fact that she used those specific words, at that specific point in the song, with that melody, which I think makes it so emotionally hard-hitting. It seems like a lot of people had the same experience as us based on how many likes the comment got. Man I love this song :') (sorry for the in-depth analysis, I'm a musician, I saw you ask, and I can't help but give my real opinion as a musician on why it hits the way it does xD )
I'm ten years out of college and I'm doing just fine man the things I used to worry about are the furthest from my mind because the world is bigger than all that and it took me a while to see that Now there's lots of other things that keep me up in the middle of the night I wake up kind of tired and I wake up kind of sore and I wake up kind of mired by the thought "God I've gotten old" I still don't like breaking rules or doing what I'm told but my eyes are off the ground so i can watch my life as it unfolds And now I'm the one telling me that I'm doing so well I try to trust me, honestly I find it hard to tell If I need work or I need rest I try my best to try my best I tell myself, I say out loud It's fine, I don't have to figure it all out I tend to forget I'm still quite young In a way, this life of mine has only just begun I've got time I've got time I'm ten years out of college With a busy, busy mind There's been plenty of "Collin's" Some were handsome, some were kind My friends tell me I'm crazy Say I take it way too far 'Cause they're off raising families and I'm off traveling so far I'm only ten years out of college And my bedroom's still a mess There's just so much that I want to do That I have not done yet There's just so much that I want to say And far too little breath Oh, my mind it runs so far away It's easy to forget That to everybody else, it looks like I'm doing so well I try to see it, honestly I find it hard to tell If I've done wrong or I've done right I need a good night's sleep tonight They said go out, I said alright past 9 o'clock? Yeah, right I probably should just take it slow I'll be all good But God I know The one thing that's important above everything else Is that I've learned not to put all this heavy pressure on myself I try believe it when I say "If it's meant to happen, I'll get there someday" I'll be fine I've got time I've got time That's where I'm at To be honest Just ten years Ten years out of college
This is so good. It really feels like things don't change much. Wherever we are in life, we always ask and mull over the same questions. Some things will be left unanswered, like an open ended story, but that's still a way to conclude a chapter and begin a new one. Hey, that's perfectly fine. We'll be fine ❤
Ive discovered this song recently and its so addictive. The tune is a proper foot tapper keep comming back for more Love to hear more and more music like this.
This song got me crying I’ll tell you you’re very strong and college is the hardest part of education round the street and there’s something u need to know….you’re doing great and you’re very strong ❤❤❤
to those still growing up, i'm 31 this year and just started learning the piano. don't stress out on how to min-max your life okay? if you wanna be perfect, remember to factor in self-care too perfection doesn't mean maximum output at the expense of your body. i rather much like to think of it as maximum output over the course of my lifetime. so relax, go check out the sunset, with you and yours, remember your family and your friends, treasure the time you have left
“If its meant to happen it’ll happen anyway. I’ll be fine, i got time” As someone who’s two years into college and is stressed stressed stressed right now, Im glad i heard this song. It made me sob a little inside my messy dorm room but it did bring me some little comfort. Thank you❤
I’m so glad you released a full version of this!! I can’t believe how far you’ve come since I first found you, I’m so proud of the work you’ve done and can’t wait to see what the future holds for such a talented young lady! Much love !!
I just want to thank you Miss Aimee. This is my first year in college and I already feel burnt out and I feel lost. Your lyric about how I'll figure it out is what I have always said to myself. This song helped give me a good cry. Thank you.
As someone finishing my last year of college in a little under two months, I'm sad to say the burn out remains sometimes, but you continue to make it through. Remember that everyone around you is in the same boat and feel a little peace that you're not alone. Remember to be silly and stay childish, it helps a lot on the hard days. Good luck!
@@elicaelum8379 Thank you. I hope that your burn out will go away and I'll follow your advice about being childish. I hope I can be like you and finish my college years soon so that my parents can be proud and I can be proud of myself too.
In junior year of high school, but I relate to all of this. Thank you for this song. I found this from an animation. I love the instrumental, the melody, the vocal delivery, and the lyrics. The lyrics are way too relatable 😭. Love how it gets more frantic as it goes on. Looping this while I study for a big AP World History test tmrow. This song contains everything I love and need in a song. Way too relatable. Thank you for the comfort to my anxiety and mental state as well as the pain. This has no right to be this good, so beautifully constructed. It’s so unbelievably amazing and I’m so proud of this thing.
@@fishtonk5506 good luck to you too! Love seeing fellow History victi- (cough, I mean enthusiastic students) in the nooks of the vast, burgeoning Internet. Jokes aside, I do love history despite the overwhelming overstimulation that wreaks havoc on my brain by studying lots of info at once. I’ve just spent the past few hours in the process of studying 123 questions across 3 guided reading packets, an 86 question quizziz, perusing a review slideshow, maybe doing an AP classroom 27 question progress check, watching an entire Heimlers History unit playlist, reviewing Crash Course/class notes, and….waking up in the morning for early review with teach if I can get up in time.
@@fishtonk5506 I tried to send a reply but ig it didn’t save. Love seeing fellow history victi- (cough, i mean enthusiastic students). I took APUSH last year and got a 4. Jokes aside, love seeing fellow history peeps across the vast, sprawling database that is the Internet. Taking World and Lang this year. For the past few hours on this half day I’ve had, looking over 123 questions across 3 guided readings (so glad I don’t need to do indep textbook notes like in APUSH anymore, though I miss the 2 month review we’d get, I’m all on my own this year), did an 86 question quizziz, watched a whole Heimlers History unit playlist, did a practice quiz she gave, reviewing Crash Course/class notes, perusing my teacher’s review slideshow and AP classroom progress check quiz (that she posted and announced them now, at night when I was gonna sleep T_T), and if I can wake up early enuf to take meds and eat, go for an early review in the morn at school. ….all for a 1 unit test. I’ve officially gone off the deep end 😂 (part of my masochistic self likes it)
@@fishtonk5506I keep trying to reply and it keeps deleting my reply. Took APUSH last year. Hello fellow history enthusiast. I just did so much review the past 4-5 hours, my eyes hurt so bad. I typed it all out twice but it got deleted. And I’m still not done lol, still have 2 packets to read thru as review and an additional progress check plus the dozens of things I’ve already done so far.
@Aimee thank you for writing this amusing and beautiful piece of art. It's simply terrific! You are an outstanding musician, keep it up and never settle down. Whomever is reading this, her other songs are as good as this one or even better.
Amazing song! I'm so glad CZcams shorts are a thing and showed me this diamond in the rough. This song is the reason I turned on you tube notifications so I hope to see more great work!
I dropped out of uni about a year ago, wasn't able to keep up with a lot of the things in this song. Listening to this now while applying to go back is exactly what I needed. Thank you.
Saw this randomly because of @its_ok_koy. Thank you so much for posting this. This was absolutely incredible to listen to. :) Even though It's been years since I graduated, this entire song hit home, reminding me of the terrible difficulties I had in the beginning. Made me tear up. Well done.
Remember to actually read your textbooks, show up to class in person, and study hard. Don't forget to also make time to still enjoy being young though. You got this ❤ - random med student
Bro, I'm year 11 and I'm like "FUCK UNIVERSITY" I only just started year 11 2 months ago and I've scrapped the plan of being a doctor, if this is what year 11 is doing to me, fuck university and being a doctor. I'm not doing year 12 or year 13 either, I'm dropping out and going to culinary school, I found out there's a degree pathway through culinary school that only requires me to have level 1 NCEA (my numeracy and literacy credits, 10 each). I've always liked cooking and baking, I didn't like biology until last year, so I'm gonna be a chef, a pastry chef. And I'll build my own food chain 😄
I was looking for a song and happened to hear this song. The melody of this song was really nice to listen to. It was great to be able to listen to this masterpiece in its full version, and I'm still listening to the Instagram version. I hope you are healthy and happy. I'm looking forward to the next album too!
I’m so so happy I can listen to the full version of this masterpiece, I’ve been listening to the Instagram version nonstop. Please stay healthy and happy.
After I heard this song, it instantly became my favorite one of all time, it really relates to my life at the moment, and it really is a masterpiece, but " there is so much that i want to say but far too little breath, oh my mind it runs so far away it's easy to forget " is the line that i can relate with myself the most
"I try my best to try my best" hits home ❤️😭✨️
For real, trying to try my best is so hard 😭. Having a low attention span and low motivation, despite having big goals sucks 🥲
This song express every students and teens feelings that we are not able to express beautifully
That’s all we can do sometimes ❤️

Get back to workkkkk then

I need this as a soundtrack in a movie.
Concept: A young girl spends all her life trying to meet the expectations of everyone around her and closing on to the end of the movie she's at her breaking point, but realizes shes just started college, shes young and has time in her hands.
The music plays in the background and you see her making friends, enemies, having happy and sad times, but you can tell she's happy.
Yes!
Movie title:
Hard Choices
Soundtrack Album order:
2 minutes into the movie: 2 Days into College - aimee carty (the girl enters college being accepted.
30 minutes into the movie: My Love is mine all mine. - mitski (meeting the love of her life)
50 Minutes into the movie: Mean - taylor swift (making enemies, and friends.)
70 minutes into the movie: take me to church - hozier (getting in trouble and realizing the college is evil)
120 minutes into the movie (the ending part) : Out of the Woods - Taylor swift (escaping the college)
Thats such a cool concept! I would watch that
I think a musical would fit better, the same concept, except the movie is also a musical
@@tiktokcompilations2991 wow!
This is such a good song! Keep singing Aimee!!!
The focus on her voice, how the tempo changes, how the lyrics tell a story… So good!
It took everything in me to not scream and burst into tears. This song hits TOO CLOSE to home as I just became a new dad and have decided to go back to school to finish up my Master’s. Even as I typed this comment, I’m holding back tears. 😭❤️ Love this song.
Keep it up man! I promise your kid will be proud of you
Congratulations brother, you’ve got this!
Hey bro, you’ll do great. Might not feel like it now, but one day you’ll be sending your kid to college and you’ll be crying all over again watching them the road you walked before them.
Ahem Ahem
Us
Not me crying reading your comment..
This hit hard as a middle schooler taking a bunch of high school classes 1-3 grades above myself. I always put so much pressure on myself and people go like “you’re doing so well” but they don’t see the overwhelming pressure I have inside. Thank you :)
I feel you
As a middle schooler who’s going to high school this year after summer, same
don't let your expectations get too heavy, if you're in middle school capable of high school academics you're already achieving so much. hang in there!!
@@pinkapple3619 thank you, I try to lower them (last year I got perfect scores on all my tests) but it’s just really hard lol. Like I got straight A’s too 😭
@@luniegirl all perfect scores 100/100 at all subjects is just very impressive. But my school? Oh hell nah, even the new educatipn system put like a high schools things into our subjects. Well they make it more simple and seems easy, but our teacher will keep the tradition. So the new education system arent really change our way to study, they just add more things to books and make the hard things gone, but our teacher still want us to understand all of that. Like they cant pick one education system, so its like forced to learn two things that u dont even know which one are more important. Perfect scores? In ur dream. One of mf that are kind of nerdy need to wear glasses after like 1 and a half years studying here cuz its really that hard and she only got 1 perfect score. Most or ALL of the smart students here(including me) cannot even get 95 or higher if we doesnt cheat or do some teamwork. Cuz why? Its.. Just that impossible, well math is still doable but the rest? No, just.. No, we cant.
This song I found on a CZcams short and found this channel now I keep listening and keep crying to how good and loving this sounds
No Fancy Beats Just Pure Vibes
this song won’t be forgotten
Fr
I agree
Nah it’ll be forgotten in 2 months when tiktokers find a new song just like every other song
this gives me so much nostalgia for no apparent reason
Hi
❤❤
It sounds a ton like some 2000s British singers but i cant ever place which ones lol
@@GinkgoPete lenka and Regina Spektor comes to mind
It gives me nostalgia in the same way normal people did
I just got a short of this from youtube and I'm shocked at how good this songwriting is. Never heard of Carty before
Thank you for this amazing and touching song Aimee! This is an absolutely amazing song that just touches my heart❤❤❤
I literally get tears in my eyes when I hear
"The one thing that's important above everything else is to learn not to put all this heavy pressure on myself", it just causes an avalanche of emotion when I hear it and literally makes me teary eyed 🥺
Why did that happen exactly like you for me
@@AlbertAndreiDan I think it's the combination of both the words she's singing which feel so, so relatable, and the way the music/melody goes at that specific moment.
The lyrics alone are still hard hitting, and the melody alone is still beautiful, but it's the fact that she used those specific words, at that specific point in the song, with that melody, which I think makes it so emotionally hard-hitting.
It seems like a lot of people had the same experience as us based on how many likes the comment got. Man I love this song :')
(sorry for the in-depth analysis, I'm a musician, I saw you ask, and I can't help but give my real opinion as a musician on why it hits the way it does xD )
I'm ten years out of college
and I'm doing just fine
man the things I used to worry about
are the furthest from my mind
because the world is bigger than all that
and it took me a while to see that
Now there's lots of other things that keep me up in the middle of the night
I wake up kind of tired
and I wake up kind of sore
and I wake up kind of mired
by the thought "God I've gotten old"
I still don't like breaking rules
or doing what I'm told
but my eyes are off the ground
so i can watch my life as it unfolds
And now I'm the one telling me that I'm doing so well
I try to trust me, honestly
I find it hard to tell
If I need work or I need rest
I try my best to try my best
I tell myself, I say out loud
It's fine, I don't have to figure it all out
I tend to forget
I'm still quite young
In a way, this life of mine has only just begun
I've got time
I've got time
I'm ten years out of college
With a busy, busy mind
There's been plenty of "Collin's"
Some were handsome, some were kind
My friends tell me I'm crazy
Say I take it way too far
'Cause they're off raising families
and I'm off traveling so far
I'm only ten years out of college
And my bedroom's still a mess
There's just so much that I want to do
That I have not done yet
There's just so much that I want to say
And far too little breath
Oh, my mind it runs so far away
It's easy to forget
That to everybody else, it looks like I'm doing so well
I try to see it, honestly
I find it hard to tell
If I've done wrong or I've done right
I need a good night's sleep tonight
They said go out, I said alright
past 9 o'clock? Yeah, right
I probably should just take it slow
I'll be all good
But God I know
The one thing that's important above everything else
Is that I've learned not to put all this heavy pressure on myself
I try believe it when I say
"If it's meant to happen, I'll get there someday"
I'll be fine
I've got time
I've got time
That's where I'm at
To be honest
Just ten years
Ten years out of college
Very cool adaptation of the lyrics!
Give this man (or woman) a goddamn medal
This is so good. It really feels like things don't change much. Wherever we are in life, we always ask and mull over the same questions.
Some things will be left unanswered, like an open ended story, but that's still a way to conclude a chapter and begin a new one. Hey, that's perfectly fine. We'll be fine ❤
Singing these lyrics hit so hard
Bro wrote a whole song by him selfe💀💀
Made me tear up a little with memories of college rushing in. Resonates so much anyone who has been young and in school
Ive discovered this song recently and its so addictive. The tune is a proper foot tapper keep comming back for more Love to hear more and more music like this.
This is amazing. The way you sing fast to make it seem like everything is stressful and going so fast but then you slow down. Masterpiece
As a freshman in college, this is absolutely lovely and very needed
HS senior
This is gonna be interesting
@@superNova5837gl to you :))
Yes, I’m freshman
also HS senior here, but at least due to the copious amount of rejection letters I've gotten, I get to take the commutable community college route o.o
@@DeerJerkyrip bro
Honestly one of the most the most underrated artists great music
This song got me crying I’ll tell you you’re very strong and college is the hardest part of education round the street and there’s something u need to know….you’re doing great and you’re very strong ❤❤❤
to those still growing up, i'm 31 this year and just started learning the piano. don't stress out on how to min-max your life okay? if you wanna be perfect, remember to factor in self-care too
perfection doesn't mean maximum output at the expense of your body. i rather much like to think of it as maximum output over the course of my lifetime.
so relax, go check out the sunset, with you and yours, remember your family and your friends, treasure the time you have left

Good song. Blessing you keep going and get success.
“If its meant to happen it’ll happen anyway. I’ll be fine, i got time”
As someone who’s two years into college and is stressed stressed stressed right now, Im glad i heard this song. It made me sob a little inside my messy dorm room but it did bring me some little comfort. Thank you❤
I’m so glad you released a full version of this!! I can’t believe how far you’ve come since I first found you, I’m so proud of the work you’ve done and can’t wait to see what the future holds for such a talented young lady! Much love !!
YES
Now she’s world famous
Creatively and beautifully written with a lovely melody.
Keep it up Aimee!
Beautiful song. Very catchy. And it caught me in the feels.
WE MAKING IT TO THE 3RD DAY OF COLLAGE WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🗣️🗣️

I just want to thank you Miss Aimee. This is my first year in college and I already feel burnt out and I feel lost. Your lyric about how I'll figure it out is what I have always said to myself. This song helped give me a good cry. Thank you.
As someone finishing my last year of college in a little under two months, I'm sad to say the burn out remains sometimes, but you continue to make it through. Remember that everyone around you is in the same boat and feel a little peace that you're not alone. Remember to be silly and stay childish, it helps a lot on the hard days. Good luck!
@@elicaelum8379 Thank you. I hope that your burn out will go away and I'll follow your advice about being childish. I hope I can be like you and finish my college years soon so that my parents can be proud and I can be proud of myself too.
I heard your music on an animation short!! This was so good, thank youu! 🥹💜
You're stupendously talented such a great song. I cant wait listen to the rest.
Real shit G she ate this tf up!!!🔥🔥🔥

In junior year of high school, but I relate to all of this. Thank you for this song. I found this from an animation. I love the instrumental, the melody, the vocal delivery, and the lyrics. The lyrics are way too relatable 😭. Love how it gets more frantic as it goes on. Looping this while I study for a big AP World History test tmrow. This song contains everything I love and need in a song. Way too relatable. Thank you for the comfort to my anxiety and mental state as well as the pain. This has no right to be this good, so beautifully constructed. It’s so unbelievably amazing and I’m so proud of this thing.
Funnily enough, I have a big APUSH test next week. Anyways, good luck.
@@fishtonk5506 good luck to you too! Love seeing fellow History victi- (cough, I mean enthusiastic students) in the nooks of the vast, burgeoning Internet. Jokes aside, I do love history despite the overwhelming overstimulation that wreaks havoc on my brain by studying lots of info at once. I’ve just spent the past few hours in the process of studying 123 questions across 3 guided reading packets, an 86 question quizziz, perusing a review slideshow, maybe doing an AP classroom 27 question progress check, watching an entire Heimlers History unit playlist, reviewing Crash Course/class notes, and….waking up in the morning for early review with teach if I can get up in time.
@@fishtonk5506 I tried to send a reply but ig it didn’t save. Love seeing fellow history victi- (cough, i mean enthusiastic students). I took APUSH last year and got a 4. Jokes aside, love seeing fellow history peeps across the vast, sprawling database that is the Internet. Taking World and Lang this year. For the past few hours on this half day I’ve had, looking over 123 questions across 3 guided readings (so glad I don’t need to do indep textbook notes like in APUSH anymore, though I miss the 2 month review we’d get, I’m all on my own this year), did an 86 question quizziz, watched a whole Heimlers History unit playlist, did a practice quiz she gave, reviewing Crash Course/class notes, perusing my teacher’s review slideshow and AP classroom progress check quiz (that she posted and announced them now, at night when I was gonna sleep T_T), and if I can wake up early enuf to take meds and eat, go for an early review in the morn at school. ….all for a 1 unit test. I’ve officially gone off the deep end 😂 (part of my masochistic self likes it)
@@fishtonk5506I keep trying to reply and it keeps deleting my reply. Took APUSH last year. Hello fellow history enthusiast. I just did so much review the past 4-5 hours, my eyes hurt so bad. I typed it all out twice but it got deleted. And I’m still not done lol, still have 2 packets to read thru as review and an additional progress check plus the dozens of things I’ve already done so far.
youre about 15 you dont have to worry about much
@Aimee thank you for writing this amusing and beautiful piece of art. It's simply terrific! You are an outstanding musician, keep it up and never settle down. Whomever is reading this, her other songs are as good as this one or even better.
Honestly, this song aswell as "one day you'll fly too" really had words that I needed to hear. Healthy tears have been shed. Thank you so much ❤
Amazing song! I'm so glad CZcams shorts are a thing and showed me this diamond in the rough.
This song is the reason I turned on you tube notifications so I hope to see more great work!
I love this song so much! Great work 🎉
also I keep listening to this over and over its my favorite song

This is an absolute incredible song. How fast it goes and how it slows. This artist is incredible. Thank you!
This is one of the few songs that never gets old or bad no matter how viral it gets.
Absolutely beautiful!

I dropped out of uni about a year ago, wasn't able to keep up with a lot of the things in this song. Listening to this now while applying to go back is exactly what I needed. Thank you.
0:30 i love this part SO MUCH
Saw this randomly because of @its_ok_koy. Thank you so much for posting this. This was absolutely incredible to listen to. :) Even though It's been years since I graduated, this entire song hit home, reminding me of the terrible difficulties I had in the beginning. Made me tear up. Well done.
I love the animations they made of it, this song is just amazing
Even though im a year away from going to college, it still hits pretty close to home
Who's here from itsokkoy

I LOVE THIS SONGG!!
I'm in my final year and I still feel like this. Nobody is alone in their battles, but we're all doing better than we think
Same here. Shout out to us.
Your songs make me smile & my wife cry!
So clever & talented, we can’t wait to see what’s next.
This song is the therapy I needed
This song brings back memories
This song reminds me life is worth living and will get better, no matter how bleak it seems in the moment (or for a long while) 💙💙💙
This song is gonna hit so hard in 2 years when I’m actually in college
Ikr 🤧😌
Remember to actually read your textbooks, show up to class in person, and study hard. Don't forget to also make time to still enjoy being young though. You got this
❤ - random med student
Bro, I'm year 11 and I'm like "FUCK UNIVERSITY" I only just started year 11 2 months ago and I've scrapped the plan of being a doctor, if this is what year 11 is doing to me, fuck university and being a doctor. I'm not doing year 12 or year 13 either, I'm dropping out and going to culinary school, I found out there's a degree pathway through culinary school that only requires me to have level 1 NCEA (my numeracy and literacy credits, 10 each). I've always liked cooking and baking, I didn't like biology until last year, so I'm gonna be a chef, a pastry chef. And I'll build my own food chain 😄
@@Alchesteranimeedits lmao, I used to be a sous chef before going back for med school 😂😂
Hey
I love this song
I was looking for a song and happened to hear this song.
The melody of this song was really nice to listen to.
It was great to be able to listen to this masterpiece in its full version, and I'm still listening to the Instagram version.
I hope you are healthy and happy.
I'm looking forward to the next album too!
I’m so so happy I can listen to the full version of this masterpiece, I’ve been listening to the Instagram version nonstop.
Please stay healthy and happy.
This is such a beautiful song. It made me tear up. There is something so honest and real about it. Your song about the painter is equally amazing.
After I heard this song, it instantly became my favorite one of all time, it really relates to my life at the moment, and it really is a masterpiece, but " there is so much that i want to say but far too little breath, oh my mind it runs so far away it's easy to forget " is the line that i can relate with myself the most
What a beautiful song.
I gotta say, an absolute gorgeous voice! Many beautiful moments sprinkled into an amazing song!
I love how this song is going viral. Wishing this artist continued success.
One of my favourite songs 🎶🎵🎼
The most relatable song I've ever heard! All the hype is so deserved. Good for you Aimee!
WE MAKIN IT OUT OUR DORM WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🗣️‼️
Just don't get locked out
Don't worry I brought my keys
