Fucking Art right here, no need for fancy houses, cars, or exposed women. This video makes me proud of Macklemore.
AngelCalixto I'd rather have that then this dark ass video no dis respect to Ben love his music just don't like how bad the videos are
Ничего себе Вы знаете по-русски Pointless comment.
And yours isn't Angel? Like the innane shit you're saying hasn't been said 1,000 times in a 100 hunrded ways?
AngelCalixto yeah and guess what he spends all the money he makes on. its not helping drug addicts or anything. its nice houses and cars and clothes. he's full of shit trust. this dude literally rapped about not buying mansions and how thats selfish then. bought a mansion... exploits anything to sell albums. exploited gay marriage. exploits drug addiction when he never really was addicted to anything. dudes a fraud
Sean De true but he does it to influence others
2 months sober in three days from opiates and cocaine
myjeepgoSCURRRR keep on, we are proud of you. #randomhuman
I just celebrated 9 months on the 20th!
Good job man. I don't know you personally but I know the struggle so I'm proud of you.
myjeepgoSCURRRR your lucky I'm still on h and benzos :'(
Cheryl Quinn You can quit. Remember that it's not impossible and there's a way out.
First step is to swallow your pride and ask for help. There's plenty of people willing to help you.
NXRTH I have tried for help everywere none here where I live and I can h for nothing so it's not easy to stop when someone I know has it with them everyday been on and off it 8 years I'm only 27 and already from drink and drugs my body's shutting down my hair is falling out alsorts off health problems
I wonder how my times my son listened to this song.
💔Jarred 11/17/93-11/9/17
Buried on his 24 th bday.
Love you son. I know you tried. I know you did.
I am so sorry for your loss. To loss your child and on his birthday no less. You are a strong woman! I know the pain will never go away but I hope that love can help it ❤️
Damn im so sorry . Please know you'll see him again
I know he tried, its really hard to beat addiction even its possible, peace to you and your family. That you soon rest in peace with the creator!
RIP brother. Save me a spot up there I'm coming sooner or later
Oh gosh I'm so sorry
“I said I’d never use a needle 💉 but sure, fuck it!”
I’ve been an opiate addict for over 20 years, always swore I’d never touch the needle but when I lost my script and shit started getting so expensive, I told myself I could use less if I injected because I’d get more in my system. And I did use less, for about a month but before I knew it I was using 5x as much!
Today I am 2 years and 2 months clean, and hope to never go back to that life. Hoping that with more people telling their stories and creating a dialogue that will reduce some of the stigma of addiction and help more addicts get the help they deserve. This song truly touches my soul. Thanks Mack!
Said the same hope you’re good
Queen you a queen ❤️❤️❤️❤️🫂 bravo girl
I almost went that route because I was eating 20-30 perks a day. I’m just glad I’m alive. My first NA Meeting is this Wednesday.
Crazy, because same story same time I been clean, 2 years ‘2 months now
Hi Niki.. I quit narcotics a year ago using kratom .. which still affects opiate sensitivity but I FELT sober.. anyway I went Into a store to get.my kratom about 3 months ago and they didn't have it. The guy said... " Try this " " people get this if they don't get kratom" it was this new ' supplement ' called tieneptine. Felt so good taking it I forgot I was supposed to be sober and now I'm supposed to be sober and have to lie to everyone around me about my money being so tight.. I'm back In the nightmare I thought I escaped and didnt even realize when I slipped back into it.. fucn hating life on some shit you buy in the damn store with your groceries.
Felt good to get that off of my chest thanks to all who read.. hope you know you're not alone.
19 months off of OxyContin
chris nunya awesome !!!!
chris nunya good job keep it going!
Praise God 👏 🙌
U got this!!!! 💪
💜
I wish other rappers and other artists would make a stand and raise awareness about real and important issues like Macklemore does. If more musicians did songs like this, maybe we could start seeing some real change on serious issues like this one.
The Groovy Guitar Dude Instead now we have mumble rappers singing about sex, drugs, and gangs... smh.
The Groovy Gui
The Groovy Guitar Dude pretty sure plenty of rappers sing about police brutality and discrimination and almost every serious issue they suffer in their day to day lives.
Another white kid who doesn't understand the meaning with the "other rappers" they rap about their lives like Kendrick and J Cole(some top rappers right there)
Guys calm down. It's not his fault he doesn't know underground rappers, most people don't. Don't make this about race please, it's irrelevant that he's white.
I'm Staci, I'm currently 8 years sober from IV use heroin and cocaine,this hits on so many levels. Recovery is possible and R.I.P. to the ones that couldn't make it. 💚🙏🏻
Congrats Hun...🤘🏼☺️This is Phillips gf.. ik I've lost soo MANY friends nd family to it all... It hurts 🥺... But I'm a warrior nd we're proof it's possible it YOU'RE ready!! 💯
So proud of you staci ❤️❤️ I’m so proud of you I know it’s not easy! Definitely losing far to many. There was a group of us that we all met when we was 15-16. I’m now 23 almost 24 and there’s 4 of us left, including me. 3 are in rehab and 1 is locked up. Not how I wanna see them but it’s definitely better than the alternative that they was heading to❤️
God bless you.. I got almost 15 months and going strong 💪🏼 recovery is possible! ❤️🩹
Would u mind telling me how u got clean?? I want to so bad I just can't..
@@Juan-rh9egwanting it is the hardest part! If you want it, you got this. Reach out if you need any help.
I want my brother back from the drugs so bad. It's hard to mourn someone who's still alive.
This hits too hard
Just keep trying to reach him
Don’t stop reminding him he’s wanted though it’s quick to think we aren’t once were stuck on this train 😢
My ma just told me the same thing. It was pretty heartbreaking to hear how she felt about it.
I feel this to my core. As a former addict, it breaks my heart watching my older brother spiral out of control. Over a decade of abuse, he just recently had a clot in his hand. His fingers are black and shriveled, they need to be amputated.. he’s gone to the hospital so many times since it started but would leave before being treated because he’d become dope sick after 3 hours. My soul is crushed.
rappers these days just talk abouth their life style and girls, then there are legends like macklemore, tupac ,biggie , Eminem that talk about real shit.
mgk too
Sweaty Ass Crack must not listen to a lot of rap then...
King Kobra no because all rap consist of "bitches" "bitches" "money" "weed"'bitch"
I'm with you man, so rare to find good rappers that are not stereotypical "OG's" wannabees
Johan Johansson ikr just mumble rappers
Macklemore is known for the feelings he expresses in his songs. Every song he lets out : Thrift Shop , White privileges , Wing$ ... and now this one. One of the most down to earth musicians of our generation. Fuck what anyone says , this guy knows what the true meaning of rap is. God bless such a talented man.
Uneducated morons whom don't understand the real problems with our world.
+TheNotoriousJFS very true. he spits what the people need to hear, even though they not want to. i have music on my channel. check it out if it's not too much trouble
+Bezo The Rebel Sure brother , i even subscribed
what was the message behind thrift shop
+Jesper Eklund too hard
Never struggled with addiction, but being a social worker, this hits on so many levels. The clip also Illustrates pain, real pain while closing on the importance to be hopeful.
Thing is, you don't even have to have an addictive personality to become physically addicted to opiates!! Doesn't matter who you are, you take them for 5 straight days, you're physically addicted and you WILL have withdrawals.
@@stacyann825 exactly 💯 it's proven fact. But did thy tell my gf tht 13/14 yr ago when thy put her on pain pills, Xanax and muscle relaxers nooope. I watched her go thru HELL cuz a Dr gave it to her in her 20s growing up always took wht Dr said... But didn't know she'd become addicted for six years of our life. We've been together 17 yrs... I couldn't be more proud of her and all she endured... From the system her family etc... 💯😌 we don't say recovering addict bcuz she's proof of recovered! 💙 Much luv from the South🖤🤞🏼
This song hits so deep. R.I.P. to everyone that we lost.
Rip daddy
Laura huges I ll never forget u ❤️
Also rip to my mummy ❤️and miss u
I lost my husband 9/10/22
Amen💜🙏🏻
i feel like Macklemore deserves more credit and recognition. He is beyond incredible.
Avery Wathen
It’s because he lived it.
Other artists just talk/mumble about a life they know nothing about.
Lol
38m views trust me people know..
whoever is anti-Macklemore then they are just idiots no offence to those peeps but seriously people who doesnt like his music
Avery Wathen I know Macklemore he’s so Good and Amazing as an Musician he’s Underrated
This is what it should be. Music with a message.
Levyathyn that's what maclemore has the power to do
Levyathyn yeah
so true
Levyathyn couldn't agree with you more!!!
You mean basically all of Eminem"s songs???
Macklemore helped me understand my brother’s drug and alcohol problems, especially with heroin, before he ultimately succumbed to MRSA, almost a decade ago. I often struggle with mourning, but this among a few of his other songs, have helped prompt me to both cry, and understand the pain my brother lived through while others were judging him for not being himself. I pray for everyone experiencing either position to find peace one day.
Thank you so much for being a voice for addiction ❤
10 years in recovery and this song still makes me cry every time. 😢
Macklemore helped me through my 7 year opiate addiction. Clean for a year July 2nd 2019
Happy 1 year dude!!!!!
@@millaarmstrong1427 thank you! 😊
@@worldwhytf9429 congrats it takes alot energy to beat it and you did glad ya been clean keep on moving fowarf
Congrats man I'm in high school and have addict friends and their going to be a sophomore with me next year but over the summer one of them almost died in a oxycontin and xanax od
So this speaks to me and I'm happy that you got over your substance abuse
Too bad it won't make it to hip hop radio, smh. This song is important.
Rahkia Nirvana still got the aux cord 👌
i think it can make it no?
we don't macklemore when we got guys like kendrick lamar and j cole.
i dont think kendrick lamar or j cole are better , they just have some pros and cons
Ced et Max they are way way better in pretty much every way.
they also don't have to get their message across by sounding preachy or cringy.
Every time I hear this song it’s gut wrenching hearing the pain in his voice but the visual makes it even more heartbreaking. Prayers for all those battling addiction everyday.
Not only applies to addiction, but people who become drug dependent for years as well.
Sober 7 years... This track was a catalyst for my sobriety. Thank you 🫶
God wasn't there for me through my sobriety, music was! One luv
I'm glad your sober where are you from ?your a very pretty girl
Ontario 😊
@@jonathanwalker5716 where are you from? And thank you 🫶
crazy how this song won't make it on the radio but a song bout getting really drunk and having sex would be on the radio in a heartbeat
or taking the drugs to have a good time
it was on sirius xm the other day...
Beau Man lol
Yes! So true!!!
CZcams name take a chil 💊? im drowning in the irony
literally how i got strung out on heroin. i watched this video with tears. thank you for making this. this is important. 16 months clean and an 8 month old son and I now have so much to live and fight for. this video is important for everyone still struggling and recovering alike. my doctor started me on vicodin, then norco, then bumped me to Oxycontin the same year. i wasn't even a legal adult. my insurance gets cut and suddenly, im sick and have no idea why. then someone tells me this black stuff will make it ALL better once i smoke it.....you can fill in the rest.
Glad to hear that you made it, stay strong
Cameron Rogers stay strong brother
Cameron Rogers my story is well. Not everybody. Pharmaceutical company should go to jail for murdering tens of thousands of people every year. Day 27 for me today
Cameron Rogers. stay clean... Recovery is possible
one day at a time... two yrs for me Nov 19... stay strong keep fighting
Man. I’ve been clean since 2015 after almost a 9 year run on opiates/heroin and crack. This song hits so hard man. Gives me the chills
Macklemore straight up kept me alive during my oxy, then eventually heroin, addiction. The countless nights in the throws of withdrawal crying to this and other macklemore songs is too many to count
SADLY I'M IN A SINKNBOAT ... I GESS WAITN TO DIE 😢
@@heathermitchell4293I feel you
I hate how deep songs like this that are so relevant to the world we live in today get a few million views max but then some song about going to the club and dancing get 100 million views.
macklemore and his music should be more respected than what it is now
Good to know that there are lovely people out there like muzza smith xD
because life already sings you these song. people would rather listen to what they want in life
This just came out 5 days ago and it has 5 million views... I'm pretty sure 5 million is'nt going to be the Max.
What thoughtful insight you have their +TheDaniel51003 . I've never seen this or a similar comment made on a video for a song on CZcams before. Gold star for you
Harambe I enjoy your sarcasm, I didn't make this post for likes. I did it because that's what I feel. and if you've seen this comment alot before maybe that just proves my point a little doesn't it
Finally an artist that adresses a real problem. Prescription drugs are nothing to fuck with, just because you got it legally doesnt mean it wont fuck you up in the long run and if you REALLY have to use prescription drugs make damn sure you dont use it daily. Trust me.
Schoolboy did a song on it in 2014
more white people listen to Macklemore tho. I think Schoolboy Q reached a lot of people but this will reach the white crowd
Nf, Witt Lowry, Hopsin, Joyner Lucas
What about Eminem though?
this isn't his first song addressing substance abuse , but i see you're a real fan. fuck macklemore
“He tried to kill me for a dollar” nothing more fuckin real than that
Damn Today is my 4th year of being clean and serene.. this song speaks volumes of truth that should not be ignored. Ty Mack💙
Would like to be my
"Best friends with the thing that's killing me enemies with my best friend there's no healing me " man that's deep 👌🏻🔥
Randomer No one cares so like I was scrolling down the comments and as soon as I got to this it was tgat,part of the song...
Please love yourself n no one can heal or fix u . you have to work at u n take a second at a time. If u need help just find u a GOD "Great Orderly Direction and give it your higher power n move ahead please. The past is just that live for today n tomorrow . its not been easy I work on loving myself cause it didn't take a day for me to be screwed up I been working on loosing me so I know I am blessed to be alive and you are too
Macklemore touching souls. My heart goes out to any addicts of scripts.
Song never fails to make me cry and feel all the feels... that's how you know you're a true artist when you can get reactions like that out of people. Marvelous song.
This song is everything, Glorious is my morning wake up song. I am 90 days clean. I had 10 years but fentanyl took me for a ride, had a few flat tires at the end, but I am grateful that I made it home. Thank You, Macklemore for the truth you speak. We need to have more people like you. I used to think that the drugs kept me creative, but they killed my spirit and I lost it all. I have more creativity in me now than I ever had. I am able to write poetry again and it feels amazing. We need more people to bring the awareness. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart and soul.
I relapsed last month after being sober for 5 years. I’m currently almost two weeks clean. This song saved me.
That takes so much strength! I was in rehab with a woman who also had 5 years clean and relapsed. I honestly looked up to her more than anybody there. Doing it once is great, but when you have the strength to KEEP PICKING YOURSELF BACK UP, that’s next level stuff. I wish you the best, stay strong, you already know how good life can be sober!!
We’re proud of you! It takes a special kind of strength to pull away from the jaws of drug addiction. And to do it twice, I can’t imagine. 👏🏻❤️
You're so strong keep going
Glad you got back on the path. Don't forget those sober time. It's it starting over it's just correcting the detour
Stay strong! It's my 1st day I'm 23 been on opiates since 18, well I started on fentanyl and weened down to heroin. I know I say it's my 1st day and to be strong, but fuck I wanna get high so bad. The sweats, aches, restless legs, anxiety, depression...etc.
"And we dancin' to a song about our face goin' numb"
...Is Mack talking about I Cant Feel My Face?
why is he still talk WAR is accepted AMERICA
Revoremus yes
yes, "Can't feel my face" is a song about cocaine.
+Corey Core Why "minds", plural? You only meant mine. The answer is still yes, it is refering to The Weeknd, and that song, not this one, is about cocaine.
This one refers a lot more to the heroin epidemic going on. It doesn't help that some doctors prescribe opiates like they're candy.
Just relapsed after being 6 months sober from alcohol. This song always makes me feel like I must keep trying.
6 mo is a good amount of time. do it again?
Man his songs have helped my recovery. Relapsed after 9 yrs, spent 5 yrs in hell, and this time next month I’ll be a year sober again. “If I can be an example of getting sober, I can be an example of starting over…” . If you’re struggling, you can do it. You’re not alone!
Been sober from Xanax for 1 year and six months it's hardest thing I ever did! I struggle every day with the withdrawal syndrome! But I did anything for a pill, I will never go back and give the power up...I'm finally free!
Rami SUPA BOY nah we should be proud. Proud that shes clean and happy.
Honestly anyone who does drugs is bored.....They are way better things that can make you happy.......Pills dont even taste good ..i hate taking ibuprofen
Good Job
I can't believe some of the comments on this.... god....have a heart people!
Rachael Day I'm so fucking proud of you. I was dependant on Xanax for 6 months, at 15 years of age. coming off of it, I slept maybe 4 hours in a week, always felt cold or hot, and couldn't keep food down too long. that shits poison s/o to you for kicking it.
here is the lyric ✌
[Macklemore:]
They said it wasn't a gateway drug
My homie was takin' subs and he ain't wake up
The whole while, these billionaires, they kicked up
Paying out congress so we take their drugs
Murderers who will never face the judge
And we dancin' to a song about our face goin' numb
But I seen homies turn grey, noses draining blood
I could've been gone, out 30's, faded in that tub
That's Prince, Michael and Whitney, that's Amy, Ledger and Pimp C
That's Yams, that's DJ A.M
God damn they're making a killing
Now it's getting attention cause Sara, Katey and Billy
But this shit's been going one from Seattle out to South Philly
It just moved out about the city
And spread out to the 'burbs
Now it's everybody's problem, got a nation on the verge
Take Activis off the market, jack the price up on the syrup
But Purdue farmer's 'bout to move that work
[Ariana DeBoo:]
My drug dealer was a doctor, doctor
Had the plug from Big Pharma, Pharma
He said that he would heal me, heal me
But he only gave me problems, problems
My drug dealer was a doctor, doctor
Had the plug from Big Pharma, Pharma
I think he trying to kill me, kill me
He tried to kill me for a dollar, dollar
[Macklemore:]
And these devil's they keep on talkin' to me
They screamin' "open the bottle," I wanna be at peace
My hand is gripping that throttle, I'm running out of speed
Tryin' close my eyes but I keep sweatin' through these sheets, through these sheets
Four horseman, they won't let me forget
I wanna forge a prescription, cause doctor I need some more of it
When Morphine and heroine is more viewer budget
I said I'd never use a needle, but sure, fuck it
I'm caught up, I'm on one, I'm nauseous
No options, exhausted
This is not what I started
Walkin' carcass, I lost everything I wanted
My blinds drawn, too gone to leave this apartment
[Ariana DeBoo:]
My drug dealer was a doctor, doctor
Had the plug from Big Pharma, Pharma
He said that he would heal me, heal me
But he only gave me problems, problems
My drug dealer was a doctor, doctor
Had the plug from Big Pharma, Pharma
I think he trying to kill me, kill me
He tried to kill me for a dollar, dollar
[Macklemore:]
More, more, more
Re-up, re-up
Death certificate signed the prenup
Ain't no coming back from this percocet
Actavis, ambien, adderral, xanax binge
Best friends with the thing that's killing me
Enemies with my best friend, there's no healing me
Refilling these, refilling these
They say it's death, death
Institutions and DOC's
So God grant me the serenity to accept the things I can not change
Courage to change the things I can
And the wisdom to know the difference
And the wisdom to know the difference
FAREY ty
FAREY Thanks, man.
bless
it's caked up not kicked up
Thank you :)
3 days today bro, it's the music like this that helps get through these hard sleepless nights
As a fellow rapper that literally let this disease and my addiction ruin my life and pushed my career goals way back. Today im over 5 years clean from heroin and listen to this song every time I wanna just go back to my drugs of choice. And just like he said. My dealer was a doctor. 200$ and he’d write u a script for anything u wanted and my other psych didn’t care she was pushin 7 diff meds in me at once…. This big pharma death dealing needs to stop
Thank you Macklemore.
Started with oxycotton. Ended up on heroin for 8 yrs. 6 months clean off everything!:D
Update: I get out of rehab in 2 weeks! I wish all the people struggling with addiction out there get the help they need. WISH ME LUCK Y'ALL!!:)
Stay strong
Good job , I'm proud of you 👏😀
@@engerydrinkgirl Thank you! :D
ScAn D lUsS now ten! Congrats!!
Good luck man you'll get through it man
41 days sober. It's possible people it'll be the best decision you'll ever make. Never been happier.
Christian Curiel I might be some random dude on the internet but i sincerely hope it's been going strong, and even if it hasn't look at the immense amount of progress you've made. Ain't no one or anything going to take that away from you.
Clay you he some random dude on here but your words mean the world to me man. I appreciate it! I'm still going strong 110 days today! Thank you
Christian Curiel Man thats amazing and im so glad for you! I hope you can keep this up.
Christian Curiel I'm so happy for you man
Christian Curiel soon it'll be years. You go, dude
I also was addicted to this sh!t for more than 25years 8 years clean 12/20/23 so blessed to escape thank you macklemore for this beautiful eye opening memorie
"My homie was taking subs, and he ain't wake up" my brother died of an OD. This hit very hard..... brought tears. Miss you so much Steven.
My sister died with a needle in her arm - your song is nothing short of powerful!
I've had several friends who died that way.
Dottie W I'm gonna put my kush to good use now
Sorry for your lost😪
My son died of an accidental OD, this song is very powerful.
My father died of an overdose. This is song is very powerful and hits close to home
3 weeks ago I lost the most beautiful girl to ever be a part of my life cause she had the urge to use after a year a half sober and died with her head on my shoulder only minutes after I fell asleep. now I go to sleep begging God to Grant me Serenity. if you survived this monster, if your still alive there's still hope, and you have a duty to tell others there's a way out. my friends, my brother, my girl all dead, I've lost everything over and over again. please pray for your brothers and sisters of addiction.if your going down that road right now please seek out help you CAN be happy again.
Wow! I can't relate to what you've been through, losing those you loved like that, but I hope you are doing well. Stay good money, and thank you for sharing your words.
💗
I am truly sorry :'( Love from Venezuela, hope you feel a tiny bit better everyday
Taylor Brooks i know exactly how you feel, i lost the love of my life 9 years ago...i watched him take his last breath and the pain of losing him hasnt gotten any better...its something i still struggle with daily...u are in my thoughts and prayers 💜💜💜
Amen brother stay strong this too shall pass
I will never say I don’t miss the high, but I don’t miss waking up trying to figure out how I was gonna get my fix. Please lord, help me move on, ten years later and I’m still haunted. This song gravitates towards my soul, my hurt, and lost soul. They never told me how hard it would be to be sober and feel your feelings, to hear your thoughts… the drugs and alcohol made me so blind to reality… and I can’t even say if I’m happy or not that I lost my armor. I know being sober and healthy is good, but am I really? My mind is even more lost and demanding of love I just can’t give. I feel so sick of this. I’m proud of myself; but everyday that goes by I get sicker and more lost….. alone and struggling to not fall back.
The amount of times i have listened to this song, so many dark nights alone just me and Macklemore saying the serenity prayer together, one day I want to look him in the eye and thank him for that. Song still brings tears to my eyes
You’re not the only one…I’ll be next in line to thank him right after you…Such a deep song
People talk alot of shit on Macklemore but if you really LISTEN to his songs they are as pure as poetry. Same as Kendrick Lamar, and 2pac.
+Nobo i understand that Macklemore is a great artist with amazing lyrics, but you can never compare him to 2Pac
In a way, they are both denouncing an evil, with great lyrics and passion. Maybe you like 2pac's style better or maybe 2pac has a bigger fan base, some would argue that 2pac's death made him even more famous, but I put rappers who denounce in a same box, and that box contains 2pac and Mack.
yeah I agree.. Macklemore is awesome...I wih Eminem would make more songs lie theese.
Thaleya1 Yeah same. Eminem doesn't rap much about stuff like this, although he's been through it. He finds his motivation elsewhere. He puts his imagination to use rather than telling real life stories (with some exception), but like you, I wish he would make songs like this too. His audience would be even bigger.
YourUncleMo Haha why do people always get butt hurt when someone talks about 2pac? I'm not saying you are but.. im talking about there poetic ways not rap skill/rep. Jesus Christ.
You can feel the down pour of emotions in his works
Soo deep maaaaannn
Maaan your user-name soo not funny
fromhumanity Come on now, he's a puppet and the only songs he makes is about emotional topics, he's like the click bait of the music industry...sexuality, racism, being broke, being bullied, doing drugs? No one else picked up on this yet? It's lame. 😑
Thomas DeRedin he's an activist, he's still struggling with addiction, he trying hard, and he don't want you nor your love ones to be in his shoes... give him some credit man
I would rather have my "click bait" be about shit like that which actually matters as opposed to most mainstream bullshit the majority of rappers a pumping out. We have a bunch of kids and adults now that never really grew the fuck up getting a lot more influence off of people like that, a message of not really caring or giving a fuck. We need this, you might not but a lot of people do, NPR and Fox and a bunch of places shared this because of that.
I got strung out on opioids and heroine this way as well. I was prescribed Vicodin for a football injury at the age of 15. I was on them for several months, after that stopped I continued down and eventually got to heroine by 26 when the pills became impossible to get a steady supply. I used any and every type of drug but there was nothing like those blue little pills. I lost everything I got locked up lost my little girl, Career. But I’m happy to say I’m 4 years clean on October of this year. Life is great and I never thought I could be doing the things I’m doing in life sober . I have a beautiful women that has been by my side and most importantly God has had is hand on me and gave me the strength and the courage to put the drugs away. Anyone going through drug addiction my heart cry’s out for you and you are in my prayers every single night ! Keep up the good fight everyone and keep the faith , it does get better and it is possible to get sober . I’m living proof of it 🙏🏽. Much love everyone and God Bless.
6 months sober from crack and cocaine, big thanks Macklemore for your inspiring music, and glad to my family back me up!
42 days sober! Dude this song is so fucking real. I love it. I never want to go back to that life.
Amy Joy u r strong u can do it ✊💕💕💕💕

Nando e You're not helping shit man, spread positivity not hate. Chill
(In my past) I've had a drub problem for over 3 years and it nearly destroyed my life. I'm crying listening to this. He must've really went through some shit because the delivery and lyrics are so on point. He really embodies the despair. Bless Macklemore.
Proud of you that you managed to drop your drub addiction.
Johan Johansson
Thangs mane.
NoData feel for you man, I've know lots of people that suffered to hardcore drugs, personally I only stuck to weed and the occasional bit of MD but other than that I don't want anymore, but yer keep strong man, don't let the system tie you down and keep going
Ditto I'm a recovering addict pk's, ads, and now on subs trying to get off them now;;;;This addiction DESTROYED my life as well. I lost custody of my kid's over this shit!!! I regret so much but I know that it was my choice! Open your eyes everyone it is the governments plan to kill us all off...LAUGH if you want but it's da truth!
La Guera Callejas yep yep stay strong pks are evil
"And these devils keep talking to me, they screaming open that bottle I want to be at peace".
This line really spoke to me, not in a look at me I'm so edgy way. But rather an exhausted I'm not sure how much longer I can do this kind of way... To anyone else who deals with this, I am sorry.
Still fighting those demons ?
I hope your out here fighting these demons...
Exactly how 💔💔😭
This literally made me cry. I've never been addicted, but to know that some people actually live like this... 😥 it's a hauntingly realistic portrayal. And to also know that it's their own doctors setting them up 😭 just wow.
@@rubywalker4435 this is so real. Going through addiction completely changed my perspective on it, even with non substance abuse addictions (gambling etc) it’s all about chasing dopamine because our ordinary life isn’t enough. The hold your brain can have over your body and soul once tasting that dopamine hit is purely evil, and ever lasting. I’m currently 7d sober from oxy, codiene, fent, pretty much whatever I could get and it’s certainly a lot easier than it was a couple days ago but the lack of sleep, dopamine, strength and motivation is really pushing me. The real fight with Addiction isn’t about the substance at all, it’s compensating for an issue(s) in your life and manifests in different ways. And you’ll never know how people really feel or the battles they’ve fought or are fighting.
Off a 9 year H run since 08/14/2016, this video just reinforced how much I never want to deal with withdraw again. 74 Days Clean whoop whoop!
That takes an amazing amount of strength, congrats! Keep it up and god bless!
I've never know the struggle of withdrawal... my father went through it and so did some of my closest friends. I regularly smoke weed and occasionally do coke at parties and so. Is that how it started out for people who became addicted also?
So proud, keep doing you.
Tori Dactyl this song is terrible
Thanks ya'll! Matt Adams, it started like mostly everyone, never touched a drug until I was 22, started taking perc 5's here and there, just smoked weed, then it snowballed from there. It can happen to anyone, but I hope it happens to no one.
I love how he throws shade at the weekend
He's throwing shade at any artist who glorifies being fucked up all the time, not just the weeknd!
Mar Ley OK yeah but he specifically called out the song I can't feel my face
where does he do that
Sukrut Nadigotti at 40 seconds
that's more a shot a the label that pushed Weeknd's single, the radio stations that played it, and the other companies that profited from the song. Macklemore is typically aiming for bigger figures other than individual artists...
Been clean with my husband since 2018. We actually live down the road from the thrift shop where Macklemore shot that song at.
Love the serenity prayer at the end of this, and the meeting scene. I just went to a meeting last night.
This is just amazing! The truth he talks about is stunning! God bless Macklemore!
God bless America mostly, their all brainwashed
+Nathan Bolan *they're.
ya if ur gonna try and sound like you know things learn to spell first lol
Carmelo pearman it's the truth
The one inaccurate thing about this video? The gold eagle charm on his neck would be pawned before he ever got dopesick! lol otherwise, all good.
How can people dislike a song with a good message like this? smh
Maybe they just didn't like the song and thought Macklemore could have done a better job at displaying the message.
I thought he displayed it perfectly, then again that's just my opinion.
Jonathan tyson exactly. Everyone has different opinions.
I agree, I'm 18 and idk in what type of world we live in that ppl my age don't see the meaning of this song, but will like half naked singers who sing about clubs, sex etc. Don't understand the world I live in.
people always chose imagination over realness. it's less real, simple as that
May we all recover and/or stay away from drugs in our lives 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I have the last verse on a little card I've had on my fridge for 20yrs..being a single mum God is my strength EVERY DAY 🙌🙏💖
Any one who is now a survivor of drug addiction,cheers to you being clean mate....I celebrate you.💙
This is one of the things that you really have to listen to and hear out to him
+wildwilllis1 do u have xb1
LOL random question
lmfao
English, bro.. You speak it?
xExekut3x LOL do you even speak it?hahahah
“god grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change. courage to change the things i can. and the wisdom to know the difference.”
I just now realized when he says "and we dance to a song about our face gone numb" he's talking about The Weeknd "Can't Feel My Face". Can't believe I didn't realize that before.
Deeply moving - I love the way he's got the balls to take on and speak publicly about such a very difficult subject
Very raw - you can tell he has truely DEEPLY suffered
Cereal Box you're dumber than a box of cereal
Not that simple when doctors hand out drugs like candy
Bro chill. No ones blaming anyone, this song simply brings to light what sometimes happens. There's also a deeper meaning to it, so look at it from a different perspective
When a doctor of medicine says, "take this, it'll help." You take it. No one forces you, but we're hard wired to trust doctors to know what's best for us. Then before you know it, you can't live without it. And guess what? The doctor ain't giving it to you anymore. So you go to the streets to get it.
'He tried to kill me for a dollar.'
Ele Grutters it's God awful how true that is. Maybe not all doctors are like that, but they can only prescribe what's legal, and all that's legal is the poison that big Pharma paid congress to legalize.
The Big problem mainly lies on the insurance companies and congress. There are steps every doctor has to follow, if not he could get sued and we all know how much people like to sue for any small thing. Hell, even when it goes right people want to sue. They also need to do something with the pharmaceutical companies, not every little pain and ache is resolved with pills.
don't blame drs when it's hard as shit for 20 year olds to get a script. if you got one you went looking for it. most addicts aren't getting from drs they're getting them from family and friends who wanna make a buck. that's who's trying to kill you for a dollar! your local dealer who's trying to make his daily free pills for himself.
Hailey Wright I went to a doctor because my back hurt. I was looking to get surgery, I was given a prescription. I got addicted. I went to a rehab facility to get help. I'm sober. Not everyone goes looking for pills when they hurt. I went in to get a permanent fix and I got a problem that would end up fucking my life up for years.
and that's you but most young ppl aren't getting scripts and if they are that's what 30 p5s?? not enough to take long enough to get addicted. everyone tries to blame everyone else for how they are you make your own choices
I just cant get over how many songs this man has made that have touched my heart
5 years, 7 months sober on Monday (July 4th, 2022). Fell into addiction after my son passed away accidentally and suddenly and the doctors and family and friends all fed me pills to cope. Then boom, it's 6 years later and I was using heroin intravenously and taking so much Xanax I'd have grand mal seizures if I went without for more then a day. You don't even want to know what I did to make money to not be sick. I didn't wanna be high by then, I just couldn't take being sick. Thankfully I had my epiphany and got sober December 4th, 2016. Everything I do now is for myself and my now two children. This song is so powerful
One thing you said tells me you're gonna make it: you're doing it for YOURSELF first!!! Congrats to you, just keep doing what you're doing!!!❤️
Whats words too say no leaves the bags at curb easy to talk actions speaks louder then. Words not a easy road either way we have critics possers people throwing us under the bus makes them look better. Not. In my eyes you should.not throw rock at. Glass homes. Watch out for the shatter ok.
My brother passed away September 24th from a heroin overdose and when i say that this song is so true it is rip benny see you again
matt filler R.I.P BENNY FUCK HEROIN
R.I.P
R.I.P BENNY Fuck hard drugs
sorry for your loss.
Rest in peace
Anyone else listened to this like 20 times already
Lugi Gameplays yup
cant figure whats going on
Lugi Gameplays yess
All day
Spent the last two years in that shower. Making steps to get to know myself and what brought me to this point.
24 days off Subs after 3 years on it, 4 years before that opiate pain killers. I listen to Mack when I need to be inspired and motivated
Lost my girlfriend 2016 to fentanyl I'm 3 years clean now after many failed attempts to join her. I can remember watching this video being completely dope sick puking my guts out and crying. I came back here to remind myself how far I've come thank you for giving me this song to hang my fleeting memories on
A little over 2 weeks sober, this music video came out while I was inpatient sobering up and I've watched it everyday since I've gotten out. Macklemore inspires me with the truth he raps. I thought I wasn't a drug addict because they were prescription drugs and alcohol I was using. But now I'm taking things one day at a time and praying God gives me serenity. Thank you Macklemore for using your position of power to 1.) not glorify drugs and 2.) speaking out about a huge problem in our country.
Beth CK I'm 2 and a half weeks sober.
Michael Reid we're in this together we can do this
Beth CK I'm once again trying to get clean after a pretty bad relapse and stop now because I used to think the same thing with oxy it was a medication it's not that bad when in fact there's not much difference in pain killers and street heroin and unfortunately I realized this and I've pretty much been in a constant battle with addiction for the past five years I wish you the best! Stay committed and god bless
Don't give up guys! You are worth it!
bless you, the road to recovery will be long but youve got this. one hour at a time
im clean from meth for one year but now im addicted to this song
stay clean bro :)
Congrats, keep it up! We are all proud of you!
That is so cute. You made me chuckle. Thanks! Recovery is so hard but sooooo worth it!!!
You can come back any time ;D
Congratulations!
“Open that bottle, I wanna be at peace” if this doesn’t explain the hell that addiction is I don’t know what does. I truly believe what us addicts are seeking is peace. In our normal state we do not have that. But we HAVE to figure out what we can do for ourselves to find it. It took me many years to truly understand the serenity prayer. I was 21 when I first entered recovery so didn’t know much about anything. I kept going back out because I had every excuse in the book. Too young, didn’t drink, only had an issue with one drug but I quickly found out quickly I am a garbage head who will get high or drunk on whatever I can get my hands on. The wisdom to know the difference…..
Sober 5 years from booze, almost 10 years from big pharma. Thank you for your music, we spent many a sick night together. My God is an awesome God.
Omg...this is a poem, i think.The message is so wonderful
Anda Dediu massage though 😂
Roopam661 Oops...it should be an ,,e'' somewhere, thought
Anda Dediu Message. A massage is rubbing someone's muscles.
wakingribbons Yeah.I realised what has been my mistake.Thank you
Anda Dediu brief
4 weeks clean off of Herion today on my own, no rehab, no meds..cold turkey...and happened to stumble across this song. brought me to tears and made me realize how AMAZING i feel and NEVER want to feel what this video portrays ever again!
Lauren Clairmont congrats man
Lauren Clairmont congratulations!!! Keep going love! I might not know you but I’m rooting for you!
Thank you...i appreciate that! it sure isnt easy!
Lauren Clairmont well done been there done it ruff like yo did straight 7 yrs clean you got this licked respect bro...
Lauren Clairmont hardest time is behind you, hope you made bro. Every day it gets easier
This man's music has helped me so much throughout my battle with opiate addiction, cocaine, and Adderall im now 11 months sober from everything but weed and I barely even smoke that anymore
Going through a detox for the third time. Macklemore on repeat to keep the good vibes going. It isn't easy but I'll get there. One day at a time. Dragging my knuckles to the otherside.
Fuck hang in there, I swear to God it gets better, I don't know you but I do know as bad as you feel...just think that shits washing off you....that poison is leaving you and it's your body telling you...please hang in there.
I'm now going to be praying for you you'll make it . And once you do it doesn't seem like it at first but everything gets so much much better believe me I know.
Try to get a doctor to detox you with ibogaine if you are Canadian. It works.
It's a God send.🙏🏻💙 If you're an American come to Canada or go to Mexico.😊
you got it bro. How you doing?
398 days sober. Went to jail a year ago thinking I would get 2 years. Instead I got a second chance with drug court. I've been thru the darkest of the nights but now I can see the sun rise. Thank you Macklemore for helping me get by those hard times.
Congratulations on your sobriety, brother.
Keep on keeping on!! I graduated from drug court October 2017. It saved my life 🙌 2 1/2 yrs clean.
Im day 14!!! Love you brother , keep skating , this is a hola hop
Meetings an Macklemore
WOW OWWWW jk cool
really feel like it's a sequel to otherside.
More like the twin brother of Kevin in my mind, but yeah, Otherside in the aesthetics too :)
Or a sequel to starting over
The Khani Project only reason I watched it
It does, I love the fact that they don't change their style and quality
exactly 😀
This gives me chills down my spine every time. I am not sure what it is like to be addicted to pills but I do know what it is like to be a witness of someone having an addiction and I know how hard it is to overcome it
I watched my gf go through Soo much hell from the Dr gave her pain meds, Xanax and muscle relaxers first time ever seeing her... In her 20s she had no idea what she was bout to go through for the next six years... Long journey I watched her lay sick on bed for days... Not able to even get outta bed without meds... She's coming 14+ yrs clean (15 yrs 4/23/23) but we don't say recovering addict... She's a recovered addict tht shares her story nd let's ppl know it's not a easy journey but she's proof it's possible. I'm sooo proud of her, in so many ways!! She's amazing woman tht had put everyone before herself nd it's her turn to live... Love you babydoll 😍💗 Tabatha Robbins (Lil One) 16 yrs together and still riding 🤞🏼🖤
Sweating on the bed, no sheets, that kills me. Know those feelings too well. Thankful for God and AA who got and is helping me live clean.
drug addict here; 4 days of hell on earth, from cold turkey off a 10-20mg of alprazolam while on methadone from a past heroin addiction. 4 days where suicidal thoughts permeated every though, accompanied by manic laughing at this situation and this world and situation i'm in.
once i reupped i was once again a contented , dependant rat running on the wheel.
i been off suboxone for a month it took going to jail to get off that shit worst depression of my life leg pains just went away a month later.
I detoxed from heroin in jail. It was awful without anything to rely on but every day I felt better and stronger. Coming off subs is hell. Day fourteen felt like day one. It lasts an entire month. They say methadone withdrawal can last up to six months. I couldn't imagine that. I have a lot of respect for anyone that makes it through this shit.
you got balls going cold turkey. Alcohol and benzos are the only drugs that withdrawal can literally kill you.
My dad quit drinking cold turkey, it was literally killing him. I'm thankful he was had in hospital rehab because I was honestly afraid it was going to kill him. He's now 1 year 2 weeks sober.
My brother got injured in his senior year of high school and developed a pocket of strep infection around his hip joint. He was hospitalized and given a morphine drip. It was possible he would never walk again. He was discharged from the hospital with narcotic painkillers (I think percocet or maybe oxy), able to walk only with the help of a walker. I watched him laying on the floor helpless, trying desperately to walk unaided, depressed and frustrated because he couldn't. Without the supervision of a doctor to wean him off painkillers (as so often is the case), my brother became addicted and eventually escalated to heroin.
It's been a long eight years of recovery, relapse, recovery, relapse for him and for all of us who are stuck in the cycle of codependency. My brother's ability to live as an independent adult has been forever damaged, and he has gone from halfway house to halfway house, unable to get his shit together and get and maintain a job to support himself, let alone be a father to his son. Being an addict at such a young age stunted his mental development and it's questionable whether he'll ever be able to live as a grown, self-sustaining man.
My brother has overdosed and was revived by the grace of a first responder, a dose of narcan, and a miracle. My brother was found face down on the pavement upon his last relapse, having suffered a heart attack at the age of 26. My brother has gone missing on a relapse binge with some other addicts. You name it, he, and we, have been through it. They say eventually you come to terms with the fact that any day, you may get that dreaded call to tell you the inevitable has happened... but you don't get used to it. It's a lifetime of feeling guilty for going on with your life while your loved one fights this monster of addiction. It's a lifetime of worry and dread. It's a lifetime of wishing there was something you could do and knowing at the same time you're powerless.
Please send positive energy, pray, whatever you believe in, for all those who are recovering and those who are still actively using.
Im sorry to hear that.
I no ur pain and the pain of your brother
I'm 6 days clean after using after 9 years of being abstinent,
Next time you mange get your brother and he gets some grace he needs smash through the 12 steps quickly as the window is short before the insidious insanity of the first one returns may God bless you and keep you till then
Sending Love your way from India. I cried reading your comment. Everything will be alright. Just Believe and it will.
im so sorry, im so fucking sorry you and your family has to suffer this pain, im so sorry for your brother, i know how he feels, how fucking hard it is to quit,to choose life.
im sending you so much love and hugs, i hope things get better.
you are so so strong.
you are amazing.
Emily,
I empathize with you. I know you don't want to hear sorry, because I know as a sister of an addict, I don't want to hear sorry. I am only writing to comment on this specific sentence, " They say eventually you come to terms with the fact that any day, you may get that dreaded call to tell you the inevitable has happened... but you don't get used to it."
My aunt was an addict and my sister is as well as two cousins. Honestly, I think deep down we all knew something was going to happen with my aunt before it did. I have come to terms that there is a possibility that my sister will be brought into my ER one day and I won't be able to save her. Or that we will get that call that her boyfriend has hurt her so bad that she won't ever recover. I know how terrible that sounds, but after years of being torn every which way and riding the relapse rollercoaster, me, personally, I have become numb to the fact that shit happens in life. and it sucks.
All of you out there that have time, congrats! I am proud of you, from one hour to thirty years, you can do it.
I feel this as my 16 year sober date just passed in April..I hope the best for everyone's recovery or those trying don't give up
Thanks to Macklemore for the song but also for helping so many people out in their trying times. May God bless everyone as they seek help.❤
I've never used drugs but this song hit me deep. Just something about Maclemore and his lyrics. Wow.
Actually it is. Prescription pills or medicine is still considered as drugs , they're just legal.
TheNotoriousJFS Alright I can agree to that
rosekilledjack I've been through this bcz all the Benzos Dr put me on, I know how it feels it moves me so felt like I was alone in this but I'm not now
Not about drugs? Do you not know what prescription drugs are?
Subs are hard to get off of. the withdrawals are worse in my opinion than actually opiates etc
why this song is not on number 1 position
Because instead of celebrating drugs like other rappers he's telling the fucking reality of what its like to be addicted
good good i know
Aakash Mash idk
people hate the truth
Aakash Mash
I was a Federal Firefighter and in 2010 I broke my back firefighting which led to a 3 level fusion that failed. This led to heavy opioids being prescribed. I soon started abusing them not knowing my tolerance built up. My wife started abusing them. This led to me going cold turkey from methadone…worst time of my life!! This song hits soooo HARD in my soul!!! Thank for the therapy in your music!!
Man, I remember sitting at my computer in Pittsburgh, addicted to dope, having just started a methadone program, listening to this song when it came out.
6 years clean.
I've never had a problem with drugs but God did this song break my heart.
Same
I'm one of the lucky ones, too, Ive never had a pill addiction, but I've loved and lost a ton of people, and I empathize and never judge, because I understand that it could have easily been ME.... This song tears me up, breaks my soul a little. I wish I could save everyone. 💔
@@CABBIEBABY You're a good person. A lot of people judge. I'm 3 days sober from tramadol which was given to me by a doctor, but I started noticing I was over prescribing myself I was up to 5 in sitting that's at 100mg a pill. So the detox is hard. It's so tempting to ask a friend ,but I won't I don't wanna need them. Even though this pain and depression feels like death I see that light and i'm ready for it.
A lot of people gotta hit rock bottom before coming up. I feel blessed that I recognized I was becoming an addict and am one. I am an addict, but I will no longer be one. I mean I'll always be one, but I won't think that way. 2019 is my year I lost my job and reason to draw this year, but I feel like the the wind is changing.
I'm one of those people who gotta get smacked by reality to get the full picture and I'd like to thank my mom for that slap.
@@SnowAnayathatweirdgirl stay strong. Life is hard enough without us adding more horror to it. I'm proud of you, and anyone who WANTS to get clean.... IT CAN BE DONE!! I don't believe in lost causes, Hope was the only thing left in Pandora's box for a reason. ❤
@@CABBIEBABY Thank you for your kind words. They help so much. I've gotten so much positivity it makes the withdrawals less painful and i'm trying to draw again. Even though I got that demon saying "You know one pill won't hurt you it will help you." Like, no fuck you. You just want me at your mercy acting and begging like a piece of shit. That ain't me now not ever again.
The battle will be long term and i'm accepting it with open arms. I've always loved a challenge it will be one of my hardest. I refuse to look at the negative and focus on the after. Cause there is an after from this pain will come my clarity.
I HAVE NO WORDS TO EXPRESS MY GRATITUDE THAT AN ARTIST LIKE THIS EXISTS. THANK YOU.
Sonya Esman oh, Sonya! Love you♥️
Sonya Esman 💜
Sonya Esman yo yo
I heard he was really on drugs to feeling every. real emotional
Sonya Esman hes huge in NA listen to MGK hanbits
This is EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO ME!!! It has taken me 9 months to get from 24 mg of Suboxone a day, down to 1 mg. I am almost off of it. This drug drove me to insanity! I'm pretty sure the 1st year I was taking it I have had to have had at LEAST 10 mental breakdowns. I was happy Covid came because I got laid off. Then I could stay in my apartment 24/7 and I had a good excuse. I am now on a complete path to recovery and to me that starts with taking care of my mental health. My mental health is the whole reason I loved the opiates so much, they were a great escape, until they were not anymore. I've spent the last 10 years in the darkness and now I am coming back with full force!
Thank you, thank you for always saying it like it is. You have so many amazing songs, but, this one, by far is my favorite! 💜💜💜
I've been clean off pain meds for 13 years in July!
