🔥🔥🔥🔥 Who here with me 2024?…🙋🏽♀️
Song still hitting like hearing it the first time
I
Yep yep
gota to be remembered. message is real asf and needed
Use this as a “make part 2” button
Use this as We need an part two
I think it’s good as it is. It’s meaningful and doesn’t needed to be replicated in my opinion. But definitely more songs on the topic would be something I wanna see.
I hit 420 time to blaze some trees
Dam it needs a part 2 straight up
@@charlesgrocho6148 Ahaha there is a not iam Not straight parody and I know the complete lyrics cause it's amazing
I always come back and listen to this to remind myself why Joyner is the best poet of this generation.
He not the greatest poet of this generation but he's just as legendary
Thats not even Joyner thats hopsin
@@MUSIC.IMPACT.CULTURE. not it ain't 😂
@@lxqesso why his name right there ain't it his shit ok im beyond confused never mind
I refuse not to cry but the ending did it all. That hug hits different
If you chose a side to stand on within this video, you completely missed the point.
Ur so woke bro
Exactly 🖤
“I’m not racist my sisters BF black” 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Hahha true story man
@@elbinx760 IM SAYING i hear that line and everytime im like dawgggggg FOHHH
"I love you but I hate you at the same time." Why isn't this song trending in 2020?
I love this fuckin song nigga yes I’m black
Why isn't it trending? Because basic humanity, respect, and compassion. Shouldn't be a "trend" it is (morally supposed to be) a reality
True but you know how much hate he would get
I wish white person call someone a N just because they do and see what happens 😕 don't get fucc up trying to prove a point
I'm still jamming to it (2023).🤘🔥
This is the first time I'm listening to this. I saw a piece about it on msnbc. Wow! Brave, creative, and powerful. I'm sitting here stunned.... thinking that we all have our differences and that's OK as long as we are respectful enough to listen, learn, and understand.... no matter how uncomfortable it may be.
This should've been dropped in 2020 this would have EXPLODED
‼️
Lmao y’all forget this shit exploded when it came out😂😂
It's been out and ppl still DONT FUCKING GET IT THEY STILL STUCK INA RUT!!
True
@@fear3127 rutt
This song is one of the best songs ever written it shows how both white and black people feel honestly I would love a part 2
Not this white person. But then again I don't consider myself white. I'm proud of my family, not my skin. It's pretty stupid to be attached to a skin color.
@@bakersfielddoug
But you are attached to it. The world will never let you escape it.
@@acarpentersson8271 too much is put into how "the world" its time to separate from the world and just be human
You couldn't do a part 2 because he does both side already
I’m just saying as a white male I don’t really want to call black ppl the nword but I can understand the other points that the white was supposed to have
This song is art at its finest and has been unmatched still in 2022
5 years later and it still slaps, This song deserves a billion views 🤞🤞
I love hearing them get things off their chests, then SEEING them GENUINELY LOVE one another with that hug....Put tears in my eyes. Thank you, gentlemen.
I agree
too homoerotic for my tastes. not something we should teach young impressionable children.

Song is 3 years old and still applies to today's problems
This song will be 324 years old and still be relevant in society
And it will continue for a while longer but we are making a dent, we getting somewhere✊🏾
3 years isn’t a lot at all slavery ended like abt like 40 years ago
@@yahir2149 wtf are you talking about
@@yahir2149 what? Slavery in the usa ended 155 years ago...
This song is the best, literally. It’s like he encapsulated American racial tension and put it honestly in two peoples shoes. All the things many people think but never say out loud, so it never gets resolved. I especially love the bridge where he talks about the cycle continuing, placing blame, and how divided we are. The song also takes accountability for both sides. Joyner really outdid himself here.
This is art.. this is what greatness is
dis song needs grammy
why would anyone dislike? they obviously dont realize the true meaning behind the song
It was snowflakes
No, they understand the meaning of it that's why they disliked it

As a native American, this song really touched my soul 🙏
Nobody asked what’s your race
To this day “there’s two sides to the story and I wish I knew yours” flew over a lot of heads. We don’t have to like each other, we don’t have to agree on everything, but we gotta share this land and this planet. One day I hope, this song won’t have a meaning other than to show how we had to have a song show us in broad terms how bitter we are to each other
The typical "I'm not racist but..." has a whole new meaning
It's not enough to be "not racist." There is no middle ground. You either are racist or you are anti racist.
@@bakersfielddoug yeah okay
@@bakersfielddoug so I just, cant be 'not racist.' Because I have a life and cant actively help against it, or cant donate because my money pays my bills. Being not racist is enough.

5 years later and this song still has meaning, relevance and depth.
6 year later. as a white boy from South Africa this song will never loose its power and truth
end of 2022 and this still gets me to tear up.
It takes a really gifted person to put it so eloquently! I will forever promote, support and love Joyner for this! To put both sides of the table on, smh, so critically important!
Bro this is why I like Lucas so much, he doesn’t just rap to rap.
That song is so powerful seriously Joyner Lucas deserve a Grammy for this song.
So powerful of a message in this song brought me to tears
How the fuck this didn’t win a Grammy Joyner hands down a masterpiece I remember my heart breaking when this didn’t win but hey fuck the Grammy man you’re always the winner in my book man
Because he is rayce grifter
@@sticksnstonespatriot1728 ?
grammys are rigged as fuck because you can't have powerful songs win awards to not cause drama with the fucked up music industry
To explicit!
Because they want us to keep hating each other.
This song still gives me chills. Most influential song imo. Plenty of other fantastic songs but this one hits in a whole different way
what a message. neither side is entirely right or wrong. but there is a right answer mixed between them somewhere.
I gotta give this guy so many props for doing this. This song has so much meaning💙
I learned one damn REAL ASS lesson from this.
brian you’re literally the most incompetent person i’ve ever seen write something , this video and message went right over your head. wake up dude.
@@swetsTV Oop-😳
@@swetsTV I am so confused rn i aint playin, what does this song meannn does it mean give peace or does it mean take a side?? Like im confusedd
@@aski8976 my understanding is that no matter the social issue there’s always two sides and we all need to look into the deeper meaning behind both
@@aski8976 one line from the song sums it up, "there are 2 sides to every story and now you know mine". If you look as just one side of the story, or you listen to just 1 person in the song, you will never understand the full story. It is important to understand both sides.
It's crazy how both sides of the song objectively have points
Because what you think is evil isn't just doing one thing that's bad. And just because what you think is good and does a good thing doesn't mean it doesn't do bad shit at the same time.
@@Jamplays592 not really, it's because the issues go far deeper than race. There's no such thing as good or evil in an objective context, what you see as moral and just others may see as wicked and disgusting. There's no objectivity to labeling things good or bad because in the end it's just a point of view which is a subjective expression
That was the point
@@justaguyonyoutube yeah that's not accurate. There are plenty of things that are wrong regardless of how people perceive them .
@@justaguyonyoutube there is objective good and evil. It's objectively good to help someone in need and objectively evil to murder. That's according to pretty much any culture, ever.
It's more nuanced than that, of course, but on a really basic level you're just wrong.
There is an inborn moral compass - it isn't all nature or all nurture. And that makes complete sense, just in an evolutionary sense.
Good and evil may or may not be "just" human conceptions, I won't claim one or the other as truth, but it's either dishonest or naive to suggest that they don't exist. They certainly do, as ideas, or we wouldn't be talking about it in the first place.
All or nothing approaches to complex and nuanced issues are silly. You're making a very extraordinary claim and presenting a self-assured veneer as if you know the truth. People have argued these things for thousands of years and we will likely continue arguing these things for thousands more. A little humility wouldn't kill you; you don't have all the answers.
Uncomfortable, yes.
Mind opening, indeed.
This is THE conversation that needs to happen on a mass scale so we can truly unite. Untie as brothers and sisters, as Americans, or simply because we are ALL humans. Ive lived both sides of this story and i will fight for everyone!
this is what i love bout music. i love that music can portray so much in such a short amount of time. this gives me chills every time i watch it
This explains the whole problem in 2019-2020 with people being prejudice and stuff
It explains the whole history of the world
It explains the whole problem that’s been going on for hundreds of years. Especially in the early/mid 1900s. Racism and division between both Black and White people isn’t necessarily a skin colour issue it’s a mindset issue. Racist people exist because of past issues between races and because they held onto that and spread their toxic point of view and infected other people. All people despite origin deserve love and peace, we should all get on and not see colour because deep down we’re all the same, we’re all human after all and at the end of the day skin colour/appearance doesn’t matter it’s who you are who determines who you are. Spread love not hate. And this is from the perspective of a white person. I mean sure I may have been “racist” in the past (when I was a kid) I thought it was strange that other people have different skin colour and then I learned that it wasn’t strange and that it was a normal part of humanity. But I guess we were all kind of like that as a kid because we were naive and hadn’t really seen the world.
Joyner the 🐐
He deserves a grammy
Got wait for dat mfs still sleepin
Even in 2024 it still hit deep
That hug was unexpected in this video and made me tear up as a grown man. Thank you for all that you do.
Anyone else always tear up when the man holds his arms out for a hug🥺
My daughter showed me this tonight. A young woman from Scotland 🏴
One world x
Ayyy I though I was only Scot 🏴🏴🏴👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Another one here 🏴🏴
This song was so deep most still don't realize
As a fellow African American this song is so true How does this not have more likes?
I've legit felt uncomfortable the entire song... however it is EXTREMELY thought provoking. I love listening to things like this that make me listen first then think. Soild work.
Ghaye.
@@sticksnstonespatriot1728 childish
@AUSTRUMU PROSPEKTS KOMISIJA he never said he disliked it. I get how it can make you feel uncomfortable but i think that was the point
POV he was not the one singing 😅
Amen brutha! We gotta stand together. God loves us all. Fuck the government. They want us to pick a side. Nope..their is no side. We all in this together! Much love!
That's deep! This song should be trending right now for the world to hear! The media is dividing us all by race, religion and politics! We need to unite n show these mf's we are all human n let us live our lives the way we see fit! United we stand, divided we fall! 🙌🙏🏼
Exactly! 💯
Iunno the world don't need to hear this .... Just certain people in America.... Canada and western Europe... Since most the other countries ain't multicultural.
It’s us vs them
Hope yk those ppl r the whites

Song is epic. That awkwardness and truth is put out there. Not racist..truth
it’s so good but I can’t rap along with it without thinking about the people who haven’t heard the whole thing and will think I’m racist AF
Not starting an argument here but the same way that the second part isn't fascist is the same way the first part isn't. Joyner knows something you failed to realize from this song and that's this: we come from different places and both have shit to say about one another and it's possible to out those differences aside and coexist.
@@eastcoastadventure1290 how you gon say “not tryna start a argument” and literally dissed nigga 💀

White guy here. What I got from this song was that there's a point on both sides. Okay, that sounds basic as fuck... except I mean there's REALLY a case on both sides. Whites and blacks spend so much time hating each other and killing each other that there's almost no understanding at all. But then when we try to understand each other, we also fight that shit "Trying to steal black culture", "Paying my taxes for your food stamps".... so there's a misunderstanding and we do it to each other. That's sad. We could do better.
Right, We can all do better tryin to understand each other.
@@dirkaveli4792 For sure man. We all gotta live on the earth together.
I've been so angry with what is happening to our Country.
I've always judged people by character and never judged another religion as not to have my faith questioned.
I didn't understand the hate.
After this, I truly do.
Maybe, we all just need to meet and talk.
Get to know one another on a personal bases and go from there
Exactly. We're all connected.
Wow!
Amen
Amen
YASSSS!! **HUGS**
When i see ppl fighting in the comments and picking sides i start to lose hope because the whole song is made so that we would understand each other
The hugs and laughter at the end**
I love how it's from both sides. Both listened and retorted. And at the end realize we should just be love.. Not hate ... We have different ways. Different ways approaching one another. Message of this song is LOVE. Love one another. Always
This hits deep. It makes me cry and gives me chills. This is the realest I’ve ever heard.
You prolly need some J Cole in your life
Cuzin trust me we been back next VP is a black woman with......finish
My nigha without or with you we all have a principal but my Scot finds we are innocent here to see this seeing Manson of ours and he has a great power that he shouldn't
Its hella true thoo
Same
Still listening to this beautiful song 🔥🔥🔥 2024. Devided will fall and united will stand no matter the race nor the color
The hug at the end is PRICELESS! I love my fellow humans regardless of their skin tone. I wish everybody would just get along and love each other. Life is hard!
This song is needed now more than ever
Sad but true
If you picked a side you're to young for this song most educating song ever made this generation needed this so we dont repeat our fathers sins... Factsss
Im 16 and I get the meaning. I always looked at both sides of the story, but due to something that happened my vision got cloudy and I just started blaming the wrong people. This song really helped me get back to my old self. People shouldn't focus on the past to much, it only causes hatred and suffering. Stay strong ✌💯💯✌
I love this fuckin song
@RhysTheCODBlogger FaZe definitely not. rewatch the video and actually listen to the lyrics of the black guy. try to understand it.
@@rainbarton nope. Everything the white dude said, I agreed with. You're not supposed to, but I literally agree with everything he said.
@Rhys Luff neither won
I love everyone. Everyone has their own feelings, but nobody knows what happens behind doors. That’s what this song is about. Love everyone. You just gotta understand their stories 🤟🏻
I’m somewhere between this and the words of Morgan freeman when he said the way to be free from racism is to “stop talking about it” he said “you stop calling me a black man and I’ll stop calling you a white man” and that hit almost as hard as these lyrics. I’m a white woman, majority of my friends are black. Got mixed nieces and nephews, family members, etc. we all bleed red at the end of the day. I think these tough conversations need to be had and THEN we all move on from it with the understanding that we are all human and no one is better than anyone else. We. All. Bleed. Red. ♥️
This video is extremely courageous and enlightening. My first time listening to Joyner Lucas and I must admit I am pleasantly surprised by the lyrical content and subject matter depth. I will listen to more of his ventures. I think l have found a gem.
Now I like this act.
Yeah but hes just mumbling now, you'll be disappointed seeing him doing useless meaningless songs. This one and devil's work is a philosophical work. The rest trash
@@ahmadnuhu2871not true, listen to long way, winter blues, I'm sorry, broski, bank account remix, mask off remix, like any artist you pick and choose which you like, devils work 1 and your forgetting part 2😊
I watched this when it came out & I thought it was dope and genius.. now watching it, I just want to cry.
No 🧢 shii hit way different
The white guys acting skills are insane, he genuinely looked like a proud racist.
Maybe he’s not acting lol
Unlike the brotha, who wasn't acting.
The message of this brilliant song as i understand it is unity through acceptance of our differences. Unity and love not division and war. It is a powerful song with a beautiful message that i am so grateful to have had the opportunity to witness.
The feeling of this song at 12 then 13 then 14 is that every year you start to see each side you start to realize what's happening and see that no one is in the right everyone is in the wrong
The feeling I'm feeling after this, is deep💞😭
That hug at the end is more powerful then some may know. Imagine if everyone had to greet one another with a real hug like that before a single word was even spoken.
Got chills when they hugged ❤

Man this song is DEEP was not expecting this this man is a genius
This song will never loose its relevance
I hope this song is heard in pity, I pray that this song will lose its meaning to us, and we can finally move past the racism. I understand the context but someone a hundred years later will see this and be sad that we were like this to begin
Hopefully one day soon it does.
I think this song is genieus, but i hope one day it does.
I just love the message. It made me cry. Hope the world see's this video. It's important.
love singing along to this song
I’m an “Euro-American” and I have a biracial son, he is technically my step son, (his biological father is black) and he has known this his whole life but he is my son, he has 3 brothers that are my biological kids but he has told me that he didn’t feel any different from them, thank God! So I have had a unique view of the racial issue(s) in this country. I have worked with people for years and as soon as they learn that my oldest son is “black” you can see the thought process with them realizing all the racist things they have said to or around me or they will actually change the way they interact with me! The sad part is, some people don’t even know that they are racist, they actually think their attitude is great, I have to explain to them why their point of view is the “racism” that is the problem. The racism the kkk burdens humanity with is easy to defeat, but the racism that most people have is hard to overcome. When people see a black man, not just a man, like every other man, that is hard to counteract. When people are so blind to the truth they say that “there isn’t disadvantages facing minorities today, they have the same, if not more, opportunity than anyone!”, it drives me crazy. Until white people in America can see people for who they are and not the color of their skin, nothing is going to change. Until people see a person, not a black or brown or white person but a person, that day will be a great day. I hope I am still around to witness it,.......peace be with you all.
I’ve been told that it is hard to do because ppl are born racist we humans naturally like to be around others that look/act/think like ourselves when your young you gatta teach your children what’s ok and what’s not ok
Racism is embedded in our mind, not able to be detangled overnight, maybe not even over a century. I hope my grandchildren will be able to live freely in they're latter years but I know that my generation will have to face racism for the rest of our lives( I'm 14 right now ).
Black Lives Matter....why are people disclaiming a truism. Obviously all lives matter but when we say our lives matter we are saying that there are people who dont treat us that way. Then those same people come to our protest with their own signs trying to disclaim, if that's the right word, our protest. Trying to protest against Black Lives Matter, which to me sounds like you're saying black lives dont matter. If your not racist after that then you are most definitely ignorant.
Lee Marvin at LADbible & Real Porridge Podcast 💯😊
No aint no way people are born racist its learned, when I was a kid my first friend and best friend is black, and when his parents said we couldn't play together, I cried my eyes out, im still friends too this day, kids aren't naturally racist, that is something that is taught
This song gave me 96% in L.A. when I was in highschool, that's how strong these lyrics are! Mad respect! (Project was to find a song that describes the world)
Every time I listen to this song, I get goosebumps.
This goes hard and the backstory of this song just has lot of meaning to it respect
Deep deep truth that might hurt some cause now they hear truth they aren't willing to accept
Amen. Ignorance is bliss
I don't care how old this song is I respect it more and more every time I hear IT !!!! ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
If this song makes you angry... you not listening to the depth of the words. This is deep. Yet true
The bars are SICK on this track keep that shit up man
