► LYRICS:
I can't get out
No no, I can't get out
I can't get out.
This pattern it's maddening making a tragedy happen
That’s not even real
No I can't get out
Stop looking at me as if I'm your friend
And please stop talking to me like I’ll let you in
With every breath that I take
I spiral around and around
And down and I’m not ever fighting back
Against the intrusive thoughts
Clarity can't be bought
Oh no I wont get out
I wont get, I wont get….
I can't get out
No no, I can't get out
I can't get out.
This pattern it's maddening making a tragedy happen
That’s not even real
No I can't get out
Stop looking at me as if I'm your friend
And please stop talking to me like I’ll let you in
And every word that you say I'll twist it around and around
And then down until I can’t recognize you
Give in to intrusive thoughts
Clarity can't be bought
Oh no I wont get out
I won’t get, I won’t get…
I can’t get out
No, no I can’t get out
No.
I’m a run run run, I’m runnin’, I’m runnin’
Im a run run run, I’m runnin’, I’ll run
I’ll run forever, I’ll run I’m a run runnin’ x7
I don’t want to leave, but I don’t want to stay
No I don’t want to leave, but I don’t want to stay.

Witnessing WILLOW unapologetically evolve into her full expression is so incredibly affirming and healing as a black alternative female creative in this era ❤🩹
couldn't say it better, she's phenomenal
💯💯
Couldn't have put it better, I was trying to think what am I look at listening to. It's very nice 👌 put I'm not familiar with genre. She has brought it close
🎉🤗🤗
all those words put together are lame af. Willow evolving has literally nothing to do with you as person.
The vocals are SO GOOD on this album! The lyrics match the visuals so well. I love the direction Willow is going in her career. She's finding her lane and doing her own thing. She's creating her own unique sound and I'm here for it.
True
Crazy good vocals! Cant get enough
I know!
Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. 1 Corinthians 9:24-25
Totally agree
"I DON'T WANNA LEAVE..
BUT I DON'T WANNA STAY"😢😢😢
Is such a good way to describe the indecisive behavior that comes with Anxiety.
I could not have said it better myself. It's that feeling of being stuck within your thoughts. Not having a clear path or direction due to the anxiousness and indecisiveness. Trapped.
This is acutely profound! The significance of her running into the arms of her "free Self" is beyond timely.
Agreed!!!

That part 💯♥️
Willow has a talented family but it’s clear she’s the new matriarch of the Smith family. Her creativity is off the charts and I’m here for it. ❤️ it Willow!!
She is breaking generational cycles 🔁 and I’m HERE for it! 🙌🏽❤❤❤
I so agree. There is no nepotism here. Genuine talent.
Ummmm….. she IS the true talent
💕💕💕💕
Expressive
That last scene is 100% what it feels like when you finally find yourself
What a wonderful feeling that must be. ❤️

Is she running into her own arms?
Yes she's running to herself. I just realized that. Deep!
Claro
This is what severe depression felt like when I was deep in it. One of the most debilitating things ever. I love how it's illustrated here -- terrifying when you're experiencing it, but liberating when you escape.
I feel you! And the black and white made it even SCARIER!😅
This me just yesterday!!! Bawling my eyes out!!!! Wow❤❤❤❤
@@Mitzie-px3hk *hugssss* ❤❤
I'm glad you're ok now
@@bossychick Thank you. Me too. I still have minor depression, but it's nowhere near as bad as it used to be. Therapy can be life-changing.
Why this young lady don't have a grammy...She makes the dopest music
I’ve always wanted Willow to consistently make visuals. I have a whole mood board of visuals in my mind a few albums back but I’m so glad she’s making videos now
You a real fan
Same here cuz the songs she give is like why are u not making visual even from her first album I need a whole visual

I love the ode to her dad's A.I. spaghetti eating 😂
😂😂😂 that was hilarious.
Does that mean that he's fucking crazy?
Nah, it's just a reference, like Jojo references
YESSSSS 😂😂😂
@@alpha8here Is that a Jojo reference
Taking control of your mind is heaven. Knowing this is bliss.
Yes 🙌🏽 healing ❤️🩹 is SO important! #mentalhealth4all 🙌🏽

I turned 58 this year and discovered Empathogen and the music of Willow, whom I had written off as some rich kid with access to whatever resources she needed to entertain and live out her passing whims and fancies. Man, was I wrong and reminded not to read a book by its cover? I'm obsessed with Empathogen and all of her music. What an incredible artist, and at such a young age. I can't wait to see more from her! Love her!
Willow’s growth as a musician is incredible. I wish her nothing but longevity and positive energy on her creative and musical path. Keep changing the game girl!❤❤❤

the fact that she embraces her shadow is inspiring. I am going through that phase of my journey. Thank you, WILLOW, for always being a beautiful RAflection
That outro....who cried with me? So beautiful! Thank you, Willow!
🙋🏾♀️
❤
Ikr? So good!!
never disappoints. i'm always in such awe by willow. her music is beyond healing, it has saved my life multiple times. i am so grateful. also, for those who have never seen willow live - please do yourself a favor and go to the next show in your area!
This is such a good interpretation of how intrusive thoughts can overcome us and we just accept them as true. We want to get away from them but they follow us everywhere and we're stuck. I love how relatable this can be for so many people. Very creative video. I love it
Willow 👑🔥🔥🔥
She makes the simple verse run-run-running sounds so magical
Been looping all her songs
Our family has been plagued with addictions, and this is my hope for them and for all who suffer from their selves. 💪🏾🙏🏽 Such beautiful art!
See that feeling stuck with a version of yourself and then running from the cage/institution towards yourself? Your freed self? And being held? Goodness!
I'm so proud of Willow! She sings all genres of music. She has a beautiful voice.
This woman right here is the one to watch out for. Love it !❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This video represents the anxiety and other mental disorders very well, i love Willlow so much
This is a masterpiece. WILLOW is beautiful no cap♥️

Favorite track off the album...You are absolutely killing it Willow!!!
How the fuck did you comment a day ago when this dropped 56 mins ago?
@@LordRojo it's been on prerelease list for 2 days

@@franciscop9009 Ooh right thanks lol
The way she’s laying her vocals are insane🥶💯
I'm so dangerously obsessed with this album
That hug at the end .... #relief
The bridge-outro is such a beautiful piece of music. You can hear its power a lot in the live tiny desk version too. Awesome Willow❤
I want to see willow in a movie so bad she looks like a great actor
Phenomenal songstress, actress not so much. Maybe theatre as shes very over the top. From what I hear she has no interest in acting
Willow I’m an old lady and I find you amazing, stay in your truth, praying that you have a wonderful life in your music 🎶 ❤🎉😊
Jesus Christ. I'm an 80s baby and this is by far some of the BEST music outright now. Thank you Willow.
For me towards the end, I saw this as willow being able to finally get out of the state she was in that was keeping her stuck, just to break free and return back home to herself again🦋💫
If everyone could hug themselves like that the world would be a much better place!!!!
This is an absolute bop. So many amazing vocal techniques going on, sublte genre blending, expressive singing....yeah. Its a hit.
I'm such a fan of Willow. Love this album and song. The visuals hit hard. And as a person who often can't get out of my own head, I felt this deeply.
Felttt 😢❤❤❤

It’s the Domi and JD Beck cameo for me😂
frrr! they make the perfect doctors 😂
She surrounds herself with creative musicians her own age and that is just great.
This is the comment I was looking for!!! So satisfying seeing them
game recognize game
But why are they nowhere mentioned?!
I still cry every time I listen to Run! and Symptom of Life...these are the best songs I've heard in quite some time. The music, the lyrics...perfection! Thank you for this, Willow!!!
She is the product of 2 extremely talented individuals who gave her the freedom to pursue her own way.
Now this is art.
We build our own prisons. There's nothing wrong with staying in the in between... that's where the heart is🤗💞🙏🏼You're brilliant Willow; always run towards love.💞

This song has one of the most beautiful outros of all time 🧡
I need a 45 minute version of the “run run run” part so I can listen during my panic attacks.
the basslines are so fking satifying and groovy
Perfect visual depiction of the song. The acting at the moment when you find yourself at the end is chef’s kiss! ❤
That was beautiful 😭👏👏💕💕
This is such a deep and meaningful song !!
Ten out of ten for pure artistic talent !!!
Talent undeniable❣️ Willow, you are killin' it. Keep going, Sis❣️
THIS SONG IS SO 🔥 !!! CAN YOU IMAGINE THE PERFORMANCE WHEN WILLOW SINGS IT LIVE !!!???
She did in the tiny desk concert
@@oriesai yes please watch that trust me you'll be satisfied
She’s coming to Philly in August with Childish Gambino and I’ll be there! ❤️
@@willeon23The acoustic version of the run run run part was 🔥🔥🔥 She took it to another level with that
I was good the rest of the video until the last scene had me bursting out in tears, literally...I didn't expect this reaction from myself...Willow is a genius, this video emotionally evoking
Probably one of my top tracks off the album. Such a refreshing body of work Willow & collaborators!!!
I hope folks also recognize this as commentary on the carceral system and ways we treat mental health in our society. May all beings find love, peace and freedom 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Replying for the engagement. Poignantly put!
I love that you don't scare from being different ❤❤❤❤❤
This is ART !!! This lady is an ARTIST !!! This song is SO awesome & painful ... Willow is kill'in the game, and I hope that people will wake up, to the genius of her music. This song gave me chills !!! Love this lady !!!
Amazing...just amazing. I love this beautiful young lady Willow and she is so talented! I feel like a proud Aunt when I'm watching her!
YO THIS TOOK ME BACK WHEN I WAS IN MY EARLY 20's...I definitely can see the running back to Me!! Way to go 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Great song young lady..❤ this ..I’m 69 and still watching..
Had to run the video back 4x
😔
WILLOW most def captured what its like when youre caught in your own mind against yourself
Exactly ❤
Willow this is kinda iconic. I'm addicted
She's really talented! She's got everything to succeed 🎉
Okay idk if willow will ever see this but recently almost all of her songs have been speaking to me it’s the breaks in the drums it’s her choice and flow of words it’s like taking a tab with willow and I understand 😅😂
🥰😍 and she just does it again. Giving me the feels, the vocals and a moving performance.
Yessss 🙌🏽 ❤
1st time Willow album fan at 40-something years old. Love this project! All the best wishes for success in its release.
The last scene got me in tears♥️😮🥺 oh how grateful I am to be able to experience such wonderful art
This video is visceral in the best way. It has so much raw emotion all over it. Spectacular. Willow transmogrifies feeling, emotion, and memory into these raw, vulnerable, POWERFUL explosions of sonic poetry.
I love this girl. She's an incarnation of Hathor, the Egyptian goddess of Music , love and beauty. Willow is such a gem to this generation.
“Egyptian Goddess” vibes fr fr ~❤❤❤
I’m so proud of you Willow! My internet niece ♥️♥️♥️
She dont know you mrs.ma'am
@@RWL.Dilsumneither does she know you or any of us . Let her be .
Babe, what u mean? Some of the folks that have replied have maybe come off a tiny bit harsh. I'm sure you have nothing but good intentions. And so I'm asking what you mean by that. It must be a certain kind of feeling that maybe you kind of can't put your finger on?? Is it kind of like you're just very proud to see her growing as an artist? Because if so me too!

My fav is split.
Man this a song worth cherishing ,.......speaks to my soul.
This may be the most best music ever produced. Mind blown, so good
🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Big up urself willow this is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Empathogen is Willow's best work yet! I can't get enough of her voice and those bass lines 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Willow is so versatile she's about to take over prepare for the willow wave 🌊
She has always believed in herself! A strength to her family!
Unique gift and self taught!😊
Her tour is about to awaken the Earth into a sense of self-compassionate love and self empathy! Ashe' ooooooooo🎉
This brought up so many emotions for me. Great job depicting the battle we often have with ourselves.
Go Willow! My favorite Smith. Her self awareness impacts her music, her look and the strength of her persona. Bravo Willow-- out of the Smith "shadow" you are😉❤
My favorite song from her album
My favorite song on the album 🏃🏽♀️ 🏃🏿♂️ 🏃 im running I’ll run, I’ll run forever I’ll run!
Y'all are the most excited to comment aren't you?
This reminds me of how real music videos use to look in 90's on MTV. This is fire🔥🔥🔥
Yes! That was my thought when I first heard this song. I can't put my finger on it, but that final bridge brings me back to something. The story telling element in the video is something that I feel like I haven't seen in a long time.
To see the growth and the evolution of this woman is just beautiful to watch! She's in love with real musician , real artist! To invite Domi and JDBECK for the visual show me what kind of mind she have!
EMPATHOGEN is ST VINCENT/BETTY DAVIS/HIATUS KAYOTE and more! KEEP SHINING WILLOW!
Willow is such an amazing artist it’s so fascinating to see her evolve
Willow has so much talent, it’s amazing how she portrays existentialism, spirituality and so much more through her music, videos and lyrics. It always amazes me how she’s capable of such creativity of portraying human behaviours, portraying how it is to have a deep connection with your body, your mind and your soul, which can be really painful and a dangerous path to go on.
The final scene did such an amazing representation on how it feels to acknowledge you are lost, therefore you’re not the same person you where before, you’ve changed and even though it’s normal, it’s really difficult, challenging and can lead to losing yourself and everything that makes you, YOU. You can lose all of fucking you, and still wish is going back to who you where, because, as humans, we have the tendency to attach, even to ourselves. The last scene represents how it feels the comeback of who you thought you lost in yourself, reconnecting again with your deepest self.
Thank you Willow for sharing with us such a beautiful scene, and making everyone of us who listens to you wanna fucking cry cause we know we cannot go back to our past selves and hug them tightly, or hug ourselves again through the lost of our pieces. Change is inevitable, we can go to the past but nothing is there anymore, but we can always return to the memory of who we where, or find ourselves, again and again, but never in the same way, that is painful as fuck but also a normal part of being a human. Thank you Willow for making this amazing song and video, which also portrays you have found yourself again, and I think that’s fucking amazing. There’s nothing more fucked up than losing yourself and finally bring you back to life after all the shit.
YESSSSSSSSS WILLOW!!!!!!!
I swear I have been listening this song almost 2 days in a row non stop . This is a masterpiece
Music and Acting is in her blood... Wonderful mixture
I am so in love with these 90's style visuals!!!
My favorite of the album, yeesssss...🔥🔥🔥
I love this so so much. The voice, the music, the story, the video, her interpretation. So powerful
Impressive.
Willow captures so much that is hard to put into words let alone understand.
I love too how she uses her hair as art.
There is a beauty in her truth. what a gift.
One of my favorite songs off the album!
She is fire🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The way this made me cry 😢. Willow you’re such an artist!
This was the most beautiful masterpiece I’ve seen in a long time had me in tears🥲 WILLOW is a treasure💓
Omg...IM HAVING A PROUD AUNTE MOMENT. IM JUST SOOO EXCITED FOR HER..I FEEL LIKE SHE'S FINALLY FIGURED IT OUT: being SMART, gorgeous, talented and stepping outside the box. This is your lane. Drive Full Speed. You're killing it gracefully and beautifully. Love it.
for my she has the best transcending voices and thoughts of all today, I love her so much
This album is so amazing! I’ve been a fan since that one performance on Queen Latifah’s talk show but this album has been on repeat multiple times a day since it came out. Especially this song and “false self” The tiny desk performance was great too! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Love the way she sings"Clarity can't be bought" as if she's speaking as a higher being talking back to herself
That verse make quite a bit of sense with the Smith's past in Scientology. They have probably poured a lot of money into that thing in order to "go clear" or whatever it's called.
She's a heck of an artist by now - I hope she keeps going!
Willow continues to make cohesive projects that she takes TIME with and creates with authenticity. Truly a breath of fresh air 🫶🏻 keep going!!
❤ I love this kid. She’s so freaking talented. Keep going young lady, you are a beautiful soul
This is one of my favorite songs in the album.
I don't listen to a lot of western pop music these days, but Willow is one of the handful I do appreciate. Challenging and interesting, feels like she's doing it out of passion rather than fame/clout/money, I very much appreciate her presence in a sea of over commercialized sterile sound.
