- This is not my song, I own nothing in this video.
-Friendly note: I only uploaded for the sake of the song and image matching my profile theme~
It's really good, and enjoy!
♥♥BIG 2019 EDIT♥♥
I got this off his soundcloud.
Originally had this as Onigiri when publicized when downloading it off soundclod many years back since it was labled after onigiri (Still meaning riceball)
Joji and Pink Guy/ PinkOmega carry very different music styles so I'll keep that separate.

• Joji
"YOU HAVE DIED, BITTER AND ALONE."
And upon reading this repeatedly as the song played, I was hit right in the feels. Several times.
fucking true
I'm getting hit with this for a reason. It reminds me (because me and my best friend online) of the day me and my best friend met. we both like this song and listened to it. it was at a theme park, I'm still getting hit harder than believable
Each wake up is a restart. Until the day comes
same
I'm fuckin crying rn
I FINALLY FOUND THIS FUCKING SONG AFTER SOME BITCH LIED TO ME SAYING SHE MADE IT MONTHS AGO.
Imbodiment of Imperfection Kill the heretic
Made by George "Joji" Miller aka FilthyFrank aka Pink Guy aka Papa Franku aka Salamander Man aka Lemon Guy aka PinkOmega aka Chloeburbank aka DizastaMusic aka TEMPURA BOYZ aka..
Embodiment of Imperfection i am in the same fucking situation, i want to die right now
She didnt made a shit Joji miller fockin´ Filthy frank did
Fuck that bitch.
The background for the video makes the song even sadder.
nah man this just makes me realise how much I wasted my childhood lmao
TRUE
i like how you put lmao at the back of the sentence to try to make it less depressing lmao
Cause the title is Medicine
bryan yao I wanna kill myself lmao
Reality Rupture for real? lmao
The man who made this song let some guy eat the ingredients to make cake, let him vomit it up into a bowl, bake it, and let him eat it, causing him to vomit some more.
Talk about best of both worlds.
What an amazing guy. Being able to do all sorts of crazy shit and then make amazing songs like this must be something only geniuses are capable of.
On a sidenote, where have I seen you before? Your name seems familiar.
A.R.C.H.E.R. I uploaded pLasterbrain's Modal Shanghai when it wasn't available on CZcams at the time, so that's how you may know me.
It's either dA or here on youtube, I think.
+A.R.C.H.E.R. I had a suspicion it was you, Archer Prototype. You follow me on dA.

Now I remember!
Joji, George, Francis of the Filth. He's great in every damn way
He is my favorite person honestly. Too many times have I been considering suicide and watch a Papa video and have a giant smile on my face.
i cried reading you comment dude,I love Joji/George/Frank so much...
Amen to that my son, Amen to that. :') (Tear of joy)
Wait so he is filthy frank
Btw I just found this guy today
+Bobby Wills
Yes, he's the guy who is behind the 'Filthy Frank' character.
This music just makes me feel like I'm having the best time of my life with my friends but that deep down i'm sad because i know it won't last...
dude....
This is so true, this song equates to the time I was having a great weekend with my roommates. We bought drinks, sat on the floor cause we had no couches around a coffee table laughing enjoying each other’s company. The next day we bought shrooms watched videos, laughed hung out with our neighbors, and when the night was done, I went outside to the stairs of my apartments and just looked at the stars in the sky. One of my roommates came out and she asked what I was thinking about and I just told her that I’m ok with what is going on right now. But lowkey I knew I would never experience this amazing feeling ever again with these people I call my family. I miss that time in my life.
Deep
It happened to me which hurts a lot now that I listen to this
be happy it happened
Going back and listening to these songs just bring so much nostalgia. It’s like these songs are frozen in time, in an era where filthy frank and Joji coexisted, where all you have to worry about is whether or not the cute girl in your math class is interested in you. I’d even say that the song symbolizes that innocence, maybe even this whole kinda genre. It really is beautiful and strikes a chord that’s hard to define
this was my breakup song in 8th grade along with “i don’t wanna waste my time” i was one of the first people who discovered joji as an artist, and i’m happy i did, and i’m happy he still creates art, such a depressing thing to think of, the passing of time though we all know it’s inevitable
i wish it would choose "no" when the song ends
Damn,that would be deep.
lol, rite?
:(
Every time i read this comment i feel dead inside. That's too fucking deep.
damn
fuck you b0sS
you gave me the feels
people saying there's no meaning to George making this remix but, i still believe there's a reason why he would alter the lyrics from "You can still be what you want to" to "Dont be, what you to"
It could be just a joke..
I dont know man, seems a bit weird to do this and not even include any jokes or anything, he seems serious with this one.
i think it's bullshit.....he said in a previous interview that he started on youtube with his music, and was hoping he'd get recognized for it. but the FilthyFrank stuff took off and he felt like he needed to just roll with it. props to him for dealing with it, in all honesty. as a musician, it can be tough to have to change your sound or style based on what the people want.
I mean, first of all, it doesn't say "Don't be, what you want you". If you look up the lyrics of the original song this samples she never once says the word "don't". It's actually saying "still be, what you want to" but the 's' is cut off. Also, often when you're doing vocal chops you just arrange them completely based on the melody and phonetics more than anything. Saying that there has to be an inherent meaning to his choice in vocal chops here would be the same as saying there's some sort of brilliant metaphor to the vocals in Skrillex's Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites, or any other song with vocal chops.
That being said I do find the idea that there could be a subconscious tendency to convey something through this process interesting. I've made sampled things in a way that I later realized meant something to me. The eternal question is whether that means people subconsciously create things that speak to them or as humans we're just really good at making up interpretations and creating meaning out of something that doesn't actually have any (modern art is a testament to this). I think you and many others are just trying to create a narrative around George because the atmosphere of this song juxtaposed with his FilthyFrank character makes you feel like may be secretly depressed or something. Even if that is true - because I mean who isn't depressed these days - that doesn't necessarily mean he arranged these vocals in a way that intentionally said anything to convey that.
Jurgen I feel like you are trying way too hard here to be correct. And I know what the original song says. I've heard it. Whether or not I "create a narrative" as you call it, the fuck does it matter exactly? I'm a musician myself and when I thought about what the song sounds like it's saying, I felt a connection, and I recalled an interview george gave, and gave a personal opinion on what might be conveyed through the song. I'm entitled to an opinion just like you. However, it does not mean I'm obligated to agree with yours, nor are you obligated to agree with mine.
I feel depressed looking at these comments. You all deserve to be happier than this.
Thank you
I legit cry nights thinking about the bad memories, it still haunts me 'till this day... Thank you I know I deserve more than nights full of tears. : , )
is your pfp the guy from fucking power rangers samurai??? lmao
@@woahkenchill sure is :D if you look closely hes holding the shark zord too
I wish i felt the same way abput myself
Never once thought a looped song could sound so beautiful
what are you doing here god?
It is a remixed sampling from a song by Daughter called "Medicine"
I would click "yes" and invade Russia in the summer instead

He did invade them in the summer, but they prolonged it long enough to the winter

This kinda makes me think, behind all this comedic shit, what really goes down? It's kinda sad in a way. What is george thinking?...
Honestly you can be totally fine and like depressing music and shit. Hell, that's why I'm here.
Why are there so many of these comments? Geez.

I listened to this my freshman year of high school every single day for a bit. Haven't heard it until today. I graduate in a matter of hours
Congratulations!
I listened to this senior year of high school I graduate from college next semester. Congrats my dude
Im in my senior year man. I graduate next year during summer. Dang.. how was it? You okay so far?
2016 on the bus to highschool this played on repeat. Two different lives and this song reminded me that I was one person. One at home, addict parents and no money. One at school as a top student and athlete.
I was always both of those people, I was in pain but I was still persevering. I couldn't cry for a period of my life and this song was exactly what I needed to listened to to feel like I was letting it out.
Life is good now, and this is still a good song.
The beat and lyrics is supposed to send you off in a tangents and show the internal struggle of dealing with suicidal thoughts , "Pick up the medicine" is in reference to killing yourself by overdosing to medicine but at the same time a reference to anti-depressants, that you should take them to make you feel better . " Don't be what you want to ", is like saying if you're feeling suicidal and you want to be dead don't be dead because everything gets better , however if you are all upbeat in life and have dreams, give up and don't be what you want to. Then you have the beat where the piano is all melancholy and makes you feel depressed and at times suicidal , yet you got this 90s boom bap beat to make it sound uplifting , therefore it puts you in a revolving door between feeling optimistic and suicidal thoughts. Its pure genius if you ask me.
ik this comment is like a year old but,
you still good? if nah then wish u the best
This is one of my favorite types of music. Not necessarily a genre defined by type of sound, but by emotional reaction. When the song plays and you feel like crying, but no tears will come. So you stare at nothing, lost in your own thoughts, the world all but falling away.
Crazy how accurate that is
Couldn't agree more...
soo true.
My man, could not have Said it better, do you know any other songs that makes u feel like this?

Do You Feel It? - Chaos Chaos
Look on Down from the Bridge - Mazzy Star

All I can think of for now
I feel nostalgic????? I don't know how that's possible but somehow I just do
Possibly a throwback to when everything seemed simple, if you're growing up and becoming more mature and realizing that life isn't fun or as diverse as it used to be, instead a choice between, taking your life, is picking it up, using metaphorical medicines to numb the truth behind living and existentialism.
Sorry, don't take me less serious than I'm being, your comment set me off in a way.

If only they had the option to start over but at a checkpoint.
A check point in life where you have no memory of future events (to gain at life) but you know what to say/not say, to either stop or go, and to listen or not.
Why does this song kinda hurt to listen to?
now that Filthy Frank is done for, it certainly does hurt to listen to this song
Don't be sad that it's gone, be glad it happened
It reminds you of a life you've never lived, where you had better friends and lived somewhere that felt more alive.
'cause joji is hurt.
Tom Whitby I hate how true that is
The reason why this song is so genius is because it's interpreted many ways by people. Some people hear "Don't be what you want to" and "Take it all, back, back" as a depressing form of the song, but then some other people hear a positive notion about the song, such as "Pick it up, up" and "You could be what you want to."
I'm not sure if he made this intentional, but if he did, it's tremendously brilliant.
+Monachus Bibe You do realise those are just the lyrics of the song by Daughter that he remixed, it isn't some sort of subjective perspective illusion, those are genuinely the lyrics.
hegdepuffin Yes, but the way the music is edited makes it seem like a subjective perspective illusion, because although he did take the lyrics, what the lyrics actually say are partially obscure due to the way it was edited.
Sitting on Ceilings I'm not necessarily saying that there is a meaning behind it, but dismissing the possibility of it is kind of ignorant.
+Monachus Bibe I hear "Pick a knife" and "Don't be what you want to." And instead of medicine I hear "Like you never sinned."
+Somerled Tihomir I agree accept for "Don't be what you want to." I feel like it's the other way around for that one. How are people hearing, "You can still be-" in there? There aren't even any words before the "don't".
the use of white noise and varying rhythm tones chases the listener to have a mood consisting of swings of hope and depression.
Kyran Perdue is it really true? because I didn't knew that...
Kyran Perdue fuck
Bittersweetness, my friend.
Kyran Perdue Just like life itself... Every day I face a profound sadness, yet I still smile widely as can, because I'm still completely alive with hope. I can't help but think about all the other sad yet hopeful people out there.

Do you know how it feels to go to sleep every night knowing this wasn’t meant for you. Somewhere along the way life messed up, and here you are. Nothing like the person you were, or the person you should be. Time can’t be erased and that sucks the life out of me when I think about it

I found this as a FF fan, and to be honest this is so good i would gladly lose the FF stuff for more stuff like this. I knew he was very talented but this is just amazing.
Same
I had to pick a name get out of here. he doesnt like the joji base as much as filthiez.
***** ik but his name isnt even joji or george lol
I don't have any hatred for the filthiness, just saying how much I enjoy the Joji stuff. I know he dropped the Joji line and I respect it.
***** i didnt know thats good to know.
life's boring nowadays i swear
honestly, i can't even enjoy any of the shit i used to love doing
does anybody else feel this way?
Absolutely! I’ve been pushing through this feeling for the last 4 years and only recently I found out what I was doing wrong.
I made new friends, started going out of the house more, tried new things that made me unsure and uncomfortable(in a good way). By leaving a lot of my past behind and always looking forward to the next day I actually really enjoy life now, it’s fucking amazing! I’ve made many mistakes and incredibly dumb decisions with my new found life too though but they don’t have the same impact as they would’ve had if I didn’t change my outlook. I’m glad I made those mistakes.
Life’s boring nowadays because you’re trying to relive the past. The future is fun, exciting, and a breath of fresh air but you got to be willing to step out of comfortable boundaries and do stupid shit for the sake of doing it.
The past is great and all but the future is better 😊
Dead Donutz Wonderful message
nope
You should have done no nut november
that's called repetition and / or depression.
this is literally so painfully nostalgic
they say the funniest people are also the saddest. i wonder went through Joji's head when he created this...
Trey Martin actually this was made during the period of his life when he was dealing with depression, his medical condition, his health issues, and his social issues so I think he did come from a very dark place on this one.
How would you know that? +SpookyDoge
Coffee Cup Joji was much more open with his fan base until he found out nearly everyone within it was cancer. That's the reason "Jojivlogs" died.
I don't know but I cry listening to it. I can only imagine what it does to him.
... I want to restart my life.
same
I want to restart it being a simple person who gets happy by small things and can see the good side of things.
Stella GS Just about the same. Somehow in my 18 years of life so far I just lost emotions lately, forgot how to smile and laugh at the small things.
See a doctor about that. I believe that is a sign of depression or another mental illness.
i disagree kek
I guess I just gave to throw my 20 cents here, so for those who are really depressed and have no faith in anything anymore.
What you need to do is to get out, leave the enemies behind and find a place where you're comfortable. Find new friends, that like you as a person. You'll never be left out here, nor will you in real life. Life's short and a lot of people die from that sickness that's called "depression".
Even I was like every depressed person in life.
I found myself unworthy of having anything, having suicide attempts and all of that depressing stuff.
But, one day I just found the real friends, the ones that would support me for every reason whatsoever, they made me cry from joy just beceause of the being the unknown one that want to support me. We've met in real life and christ, was that a good time.
You should never give up at anything, if your problems were about family problems, any problems in general. You should never give up. You just can't, no need to work hard on it instantly, just try it out slowly. You'll get the hang of it and you'll slowly feel better. Until one day where you find your second half of your heart. From that point on, nothing will make you feel sad anymore.
I'm sorry if it's really long and not yet detailed enough, but I love everyone of you guys. I don't want to see more people dying/suffering from depression, I can't handle it anymore, I just want you guys to try out the best of your lifes.
-Love you all, you'll get better, don't worry, give it some time.
I'm not reading this but i can give you a cookie🍪
Might not mean a lot but you truly have saved me. Thank you and god bless
You're the type of person we need on this world.
I appreciate what you are saying here I want you to know that this does really help. But when even that doesn't work find help. I had friends who I loved with a passion but it just made the pain worse. I was just a burden to them in my mind I almost ended everything. Sometimes you do need professional help.
This comment paired with the song...
I found this song in 2016. God, I was a sophmore in high school back then. No cares beyond my ELO in csgo and making sure my grades stayed above a D. Things were so good then.
Now here I am. 21 years old in 2021. Smoking the last cig of the pack while i sit in the car I'm to tall to sleep in, not wanting to go back to the broken family in the place that's meant to be home. The girl I thought I loved not answering my calls, ignoring my texts. The friends I made along the way scattered around the country.
I'm going to die bitter and alone, and I'm not going go get a retry.
How are you holding up?
how you doin bro?!
hope you’ve found happiness and youre okay
you okay now? we've all been there man... i know i have... this song came out at a dark fucking time in my life. i still call them "the dark times" ... but we gotta pick it up man..not the physical medicine but that medicine within ourselves. to pick ourselves up.. :(
i dont know you.. but i miss you... please come back
I'm 23, and yea my crush ghost me to. Life is cool.

this song is craaaaazy nostalgic to me. i used to listen to this constantly in high school, which was a pretty difficult time in my life. this song definitely made me feel better during those times.

Why do I feel nostalgic for a point in my life that was rock bottom
It seems I'm one of the rare ones that loves Filthy Frank and Joji/PinkOmega equally here.
I think Filthy Frank is hilarious and I've been following it since early 2012 but I'm also immensely saddened that the Joji album got cancelled, seriously I think Joji's stuff is on the same tier as Nujabes and if he actually went through with making that album I honestly think it could've been one of the best hip hop albums to ever be produced. (Well, it had the potential to, anyway.) His beats, the flow and tone in his lyrics, some of the imagery he uses in his music videos (mainly referring to the end of Tribute to Ronald, that shit hit my aesthetic way too hard), when it comes to music and chill hop he seems to just be a jack of all trades and master of all. I could listen to his serious beats for hours on end.
I'm really hoping he starts up serious music production again with the PinkOmega alias. I don't want this to end in a "the greatest producer that never was" story.
No man, you're not alone. I really do feel the same way. I really enjoy watching filthy frank because of the laughs and the...well you know, cringes. But he has plenty of potential. I really do hope pinkomega goes somewhere.
Your Nujabes reference hit me. I just like his rapping and his comedy, he's just playing characters. People bullshit about how the frank fan base ruined the album and shit. Just calm down man, it's all chill he's just doing him.

may we become ever wiser
i listened to this on repeat all the time in high school. the last time i remember listening to it was in 11th grade, waiting outside the school in the heaviest blizzard of the year, freezing cold, couldn't feel my face or my fingers, waiting for my dad to pick me up, but he never did. i had to trudge home with tears turning to ice on my cheeks. i was so suicidal at the time, for some reason being forgotten like that made me want to walk into the woods and curl up in the snow, and let it cover me completely.
how are things now?
Hope you feel better my man. ❤️
will it ever get any better
It's actually George Miller ^^ Joji is his nickname

If yes then I have only one question for would you like to retry with me? I'll be ur friend.
no I'm good, I would rather stay dead, it's better for everyone that way
I would choose no because I won’t need people to waste time worrying about me
This song in combination with this graphic makes me feel like dying by being smothered in the warmth of a very large vat of mashed potatoes and gravy
Omg you just finished me x'D
thats what opiates feel like
Sulfuric acid isn't nearly as soothing
Opiates, theyre just one of those things that feel too good to be true, they're so good if you can go into them with the mindset that this is what your life could feel like when your truely happy, however that might be.
otherwise they change you :(

Hey bro give us an update, are you doing okay?
This song makes me feel nostalgic about things that never happened.
i'm so sad that he canceled his album, this is beautiful.....
Jade Lam What? He cancelled it?
Jade Lam the potential of that album, damn what could have been
Invictus Yesterday, on his personal twitter account, Joji implied that he won't be making music anymore and therefore asked his fans to stop begging him to come back. Which is such a shame though! The talent is there but he moved on and doesn't care about it anymore.
such a damn shame. couldn't blame him. the ff fanbase is full of kids in love with memes and couldn't get enough of ORE WA CHIN CHIN bullshit
Invictus I won't pretend to act like I know him because I don't but he started making vlogs alongside producing music several months ago. Then his fanbase ruined it: they were spamming FF comments everywhere. Maybe he's disappointed, maybe he was angry, I don't know. What I do know however is that all of sudden he removed all his vlogs, posted a message on his soundcloud saying that he was done making music and now he tweeted basically the same thing. His FF fanbase is a cancer.
This is really really great... the way you can hear it as "take your life" or "pick it up" and "do be what you want to" or "don't be what you want to", combined with the way it skips around really reflects to me the struggle between choosing suicide or choosing to taking medicine to try and feel better.
Its not complete bullshit. joji could have picked the song because he related to it.
This comment is beautifully sad like the song.
+Josh W everyone has their own thoughts and interpretations on pieces of music. It's a form of art. Even if the meaning is clear or unclear, everyone has their own personal meaning to it, which makes different music so important to different people.

And it is getting worse. Like eating hair
+The Akward Kid kjhvskjrgthdkgtyuj icaNT
+The Akward Kid Yeah he's such a talented guy, makes great music, sucks he has to separate himself from Filthy Frank and stay in the background; a lot of his fans didn't like when he revealed himself. I am a fan of him and his Filthy Frank persona and I can understand why he chose to stay in the background. I honestly hope he has a bright future on his personal side and with his actual self.
Joji > Frank
Doubled Fun they are all the same
+jim slater hes japanese
***** Excuse you!
***** Franks a character. Joji is a person.
There's no need to compare Joji with his own character.
I started crying while watching this
i hope u're ok
same
I feel so lonely listening to this song. It reminds me of how I wasted my youth suffering with depression where sleep was my only medicine to escape reality
What am I supposed to feel...
Nostalgia?
+Jana K. thats how it makes me feel! not sure why
Nostalgic, sad or warm. Take your pick
+Weeb Princess The original song is about cancer though.
Nostalgia and melancholy.
What's this genre, it's so chill yet has a depressing sort of theme?
joji called it romantic garbage but that's not a real genre
You might like Burial's album "Untrue". If you want to really get into this kind of thing, I believe the genre is referred to as "future garage".
+Vel Sparko burial/garage music isn't quite the same (much bassier, for starters), but a lot of it has a similar feel and is definitely awesome music.
look into an artist named In Love With a Ghost. you wont be dissappointed.
Chillhop is my closest guess
For all of you who thinks: "Will it always be like this?"
I promise you one thing: It won't. Keep fighting.
People keep telling me that, but it's been 7 years since my life started spiraling down, and there's still no sign of things getting better.
@@MrJibsIV Change your path stop doing the same thing, break the cycle sometimes you just have to act rather than waiting.
Thank you...💗
I wish I never got into drugs man, shits fucked up.
Btw the original song is “medicine” by daughter, such a sad song
HE REMIXED A SAD SONG HE MUST BE VERY DEPRESSED I WONDER WHAT GOES ON BEHIND ALL OF THE FILTHY FRANK STUFF HMMMMMMMMMM I WONDER
Are you too dull to realize that this comment is a parody?
A depressed guy that no one knows about because his fame is based off of someone who isn't the real him
parody or not you fucking ruined my chill moment
Dude the fuckin parody in response to a parody was not realized as a parody by the original parody maker. that's fuckin deep. or maybe he was still in character... fuck dude
whoa was it
It's new years, I'm drunk and in the afterglow. I would love nothing more than to die right here, right now to this song with these feelings. Love you, Joji, I hope you're good.
Well I hope you're still alive and doing well.
+Dream Same,suffering depression for 2 years and this song makes me break down .. I hope joji is alright,and some day he will come back .. I hope he is happy.
+RainbowMonkeyFtw He posts normal stuff on twitter and he has some new songs under "joji" on soundcloud :)
+Dream i was in a moderate state a few days ago and i listened to jojis songs and just broke down
ive never felt emotion that strong in something that isnt directly emotional
its like hes mind controlling us haha
I'm tired of the people saying "I can't believe FilthyFrank made this song."
FilthyFrank didn't make this. Joji did and I want people to understand the difference.
Kevinofrepublic actually Daughter did this song "Medicine" and Joji made remix
it's still a bit weird tho
People will see him as filthy frank and as much as the community is cancer they will still say it so you won’t really make a difference saying this

If you want to take your life, that's totally your right in my opinion. Never let anyone guilt you into living a life you hate, not even your parents. You never asked for this.
However:
Please think incredibly carefully before making that decision. Please make sure you've done everything in your power to turn things around before you make that call. Life, for all it's flaws, is so precious because it's really all we have before an eternity of nothingness. It's a rare opportunity to experience all manner of things, try new foods, fall in love. If you truly feel you've done all you can to and nothings changed, fair enough. You can go knowing you put up a good fight. I know I don't know what it's like, but you never know, one day you might look back and be glad you kept going for a little while longer.
Yeah man i was going through depression a year ago and i was always feeling like living is the worst thing ever and dont get me wrong its horrible sometimes but im so glad i got through it life is no longer sad and bitter its ok
everyone says this song makes them feel depressed buy this beat makes me feel hopeful idek
Amanda Hanahan I know...like..its calming me down
indeed, i feel depressed while listening to this, but its a good depressed.. idk i cant explain haha
I get you, it's like you realise how shit everything is but you also realise you may as well just get on with it
Who's Sid? no its just a calming beat lol
Amanda Hanahan
I feel the same..
"My mother once warned me about the world, how dark it can be. The world is dark and nothing will ever be the same. We are empty, yet we feel pain -- what kind of sick god would allow this?"
~MacBook 2.0
It's amazing how some stuff in FF's videos can be incredibly 'real'.
hey look its grand dad.
He could say some Shakespeare shit off the top of his head as a ironic joke and he wouldn't even know how beautiful it really is
No god. THERE ISNO FUCKING GOD
Waifus4everyone chin chin is going to gut you
"You have died bitter and alone" that makes me feel bitter, alone and sad.
My boy, Desmond.
Always in the heart
The original lyrics are, "You can still be what you want to. What you still were when I met you."
But Joji decided to change it to, "Don't be what you want to. Pick it up, pick it all up."
That's the sad part, to me.. the melody and edit is sad enough, but the fact he went through the trouble to change it up a bit.
I thought it said "Do, be what you want to. Pick it up. Pick it up (up)"
It makes sense when you think that about the time he made this song, he was already despising his Filthy Frank persona.
joji has been suffering from a disorder where if he get's stressed out, he has a seizure, so he has to take medication every day for him not to get a seizure. i mean i doubt joji would make a song without meaning, (excluding all of his filthyfrank songs.)
THAT or it could mean you HAVE to take the medicine because without it all you want to be is DEAD.
If you, a depressed person, wants to die, then take the medicine and don't be what you want to.
anima099 yes, that too. i don’t know though. this song could have a whole ‘nother meaning
This song makes me cry uncontrollably and I don't know why.
That being said, I still love listening to it on repeat. I don't know why that is either.
+The Domikonis Because it's really good. Joji put all the parts of the song "Medicine" which were good and made a masterpiece, been litening for 5 hours now, still good, only song that's made me do that.
+Nicolas Naegeli - I think it's the picture that really gets to me. "You have died bitter and alone." Like I don't want to die bitter and alone man, and I have this shitty (wonderful) ability to let music take me to other worlds, and when I listen to this, it's like a sweet poison. It takes me to this world where I feel so dead and alone and bitter and then when I finally build up the will take my headphones off I come back here and feel a lot happier with the life I have and it's almost empowering. Like all of that pain and sadness and lonesomeness of another version of me is melting away and smiling proudly as he watches himself (me) push forward, but it still makes me feel horrible that someone has to feel that horrible for me. My younger tortured self is fading away and smiling to me, but he's proud and he knows his suffering wasn't for nothing. I don't see him anymore when I look in the mirror.
I'm just so fucking scared that life is going to kick my ass if I don't "pick it up" and I won't be "what I want to".
I'm sorry. That started pouring out and I really couldn't stop.
huh, funny how you spelled my second name right and yet you struggled to spell such a simple name as Nicolas... I guess it's the accent that mislead you :/. I get what you're saying, everyone has a different interpretation of music when listening to music. Thing is, this song doesn't have any story to it, it's just up to our imagination to decide if it's a chill-out song, a depressing song, or a happy song! That's what makes this song so great, you can make it yours in a way...
ALSOOOO... I got carried away hahaha, sorry ^.^
In case anyone was wondering, the original song is “Medicine” by Daughter and it is way sadder, so gotta admire how Joji shaped this song in a whole new way

Sometimes i hear "pick it up" others "take your life" also "dont be what you want to"
It's 'Medicine' 'Pick it up'(?) 'Where she wants you to be'.
thats actually really deep
It's "don't be what you want to"
It doesn't even have a lyrics but man my heart ache.
X acot yeah my heart is just sunken in my chest when I listen to this but its so enchanting too
or a penis ache. because i have a huge cowboy cock
but it has lyrics
"Medicine, pick it up. Don't be, what you want to."
but man your grammar ache
Listen to this while in a car on a rainy day. Seriously, do it, it fits so well...
Might be too hard to not tear up.
This song make me feel like I can talk to a inner (child) me that I have hidden for so long, and we hold hands and walk together now.
Clement Cha I understand and relate to you. Do you have anygthing more to add to your wonderful experience?
@@aisadal2521 i smoke with cigarettes
When I hear the "Don't be what you want to", I think of what Joji said in one of Max's CSGO unboxings; "Maybe if I wear the pink suit and make a noise, the 12 year olds will laugh". I interpreted it as him saying that his fanbase only cares about Frank and not Joji
sad :(
I feel as though this song does have a deeper meaning to us, but maybe not to Joji himself. I love Daughter's original version of this song, I found the OG version BECAUSE of this song. But I believe Joji liked the song and wanted to do his own thing with it. That's it, no deeper meaning, and if there is we might not ever know? Which is okay, we don't need to know. We don't have to know, if he wanted us to know if there was a depressing, sad, underlying meaning to this song or any of his song; he'd tell us.
But for the people who listen to this song, or listening to it at a certain time. We as humans may have connected it to rough, or challenging times. Simply because of the emotions we feel from it. I know this song evokes sadness whenever I listen to it due to the connections I have. But do I think it's a depressing song? No, the original song isn't *THAT* depressing, nor is this remix. It just explains we can all still be what we want to be. Despite taking things (such as medicine.) At the end of the day, we have this thing in our mind that connects things to things. And I know personally this song connects to some of my sadness.
We are made to be from all the experiences we go through as life, this song reminds me that I'm me and that I can be sad at times because at times life has been very rough for me, I reminisce those moments of feeling sad, I usually listen to this song when I am sad and just tear out, feel alive, the gif in the video doesn't make it better for the saddness, often when I listen this song it feels like I have this menu in front of me, that I want to start over but at the end of the day, it motivates me to seek people, talk, feel happy, overcome the challenges because I don't want to die bitter and alone, it ain't over yet...
idk why it made the other person's comment count as spam but they said:
You know, your understanding of the world around has openend my eyes. I really do believe we need more people in this world like you
Everyone interprets things differently. Personally, this song (and all of his more serious music) calms me. Knowing that it's made by an artist that I respect is enough to make it feel beautiful.
I agree with you a lot.
I think the song does have a meaning to Joji - he had a pretty serious illness and took medicines against it
jesus its 3am and out of nowhere i just recalled this video and remembered showing it to my friends a couple of years ago so i started googling for an entire hour things like "ghost on a grave music loop" "pick it up pick it up up" "dont be what you want to" and didnt find literally anything until i vaguely recalled just the word "Joji" and I was like wait thats an artist ive heard about but never bothered listening to, aint no way i listened to a song of this random person a few years back and i found it holy crap
this paragraph is too long
So much feelings attached to this song back when i was really down and all. Im all good now.
What's your secret. Im a god damn wreck.
things do get better with time
I could choose retry but it would just bring me to the same conclusion.
You'll never know until you put forth the effort to be different.
Damn thats some real shit my dude
220 of the people that don't like this, have no soul.
Or misclicked..
Maybe it's because she straight up reuploaded his song.
That could be it ...
its called having an opinion, kid. Don't get triggered when someone disagrees with you
I'm not triggered just saying they are souless.
The picture reminds me of my cat. she was going to spend one week at my house this week turned into a month, after that she came back to her original house and became super sad, she didnt ate or drink, it was like she gave up. Then she tried to come back to our home and a bus hit her, she died. sad and alone.
:(
This reminds me of my lost cat :(
Im having goosebumps by reading that comment again, i'm sorry if i made you sad just wanted to tell a story of mine.
cinnamon bird no it’s okay
im sorry for your loss. its really hurting.
I listened to this song on repeat during a very bad time in my life back in 2017, it has taken me 5 years to be able to return to this song without immediately crying. Thanks Joji, you helped more than you thought
Damn, this comment section is really depressing...
Depression is a strong word
I would say "buzzkill" more than anything
Cringy as fuck
I have to do this to you my guy, but... You kinda look like a thicc Johnny Bravo. All you need is the sunglasses.
Dude for real. Like...y'all.
yeah
I still don't know if this song is melancholic and depresseing or positive and optimistic.
"Take your life. Take it all back"
"Don't be. what you want to."
Odd statements.
EDIT: A bunch of people told me now that the original song is Medicine by Daughter and the lyrics are actually: "Pick it up. Pick it all up. You can still be what you want to."
+Dude in a DeLorean I hear "Pick it up, up" instead of "Take your life"
Yeesh, probably. I hope not. I worry about that man.
+GioBrauer I hear "pick a knife" and "pick it up" for some reason, and at some points of the song I hear "give them heart" which I think means set them at peace and end your life. Weird.
+GioBrauer maybe he's talking about getting rid of "Joji" because all his "fans" would rather choose FF over him, but I guess it can seen in many other ways, that's what I like about this song.
Yeah...
Thank you. Haven't heard this song in 5 years. I couldn't find it at first.. happy I did
This song reminds me of all my online friends when i used to play with them and now it just shows ”Last online: over two years ago” i just wanna know how They are man how They are doing and what’s going rn with them? Do They still remember me or think about me? I really wish i could just text them and tell them how much i miss them because They always made my days better when i was playing with them i used to laugh so much it was just so amazing playing with them all day and having fun. Now they are just gone. ;(
This is beyond relatable.
It’s… so crazy how the curving paths of people’s lives can intersect, they can be so important to each other…
But as curves do, sooner or later, they no longer intersect, and move their own separate ways. It hurts.
Listen to Scratch21’s song “Strangers” for a song capturing that feeling. I’m working on a slower, more emotional version of the song myself, and will try to remember this comment when I finish and release it.
Sometimes wishing you could end the game early so you get to press retry
Koaladrew 2 years late... but god damn I felt this. Hope life’s well for you stranger.
The image makes me feel weird, like a semi-nostalgia thing. it goes so well with the music. thank you for posting.
Choose no next time
Exactly how I felt.
I remember crying my ass off to this when I was like 12
REAL
real
Thinking about everything I’ve done wrong in life and all the people who I have hurt. The tears don’t come out. I am hollow inside.
You gotta learn to forgive yourself bruv, I was having a similar problem and I just looked up on CZcams how to forgive yourself the first vid I watched had me weeping but I started to get it and am feeling better now, in any case it can definitely get better with enough self reflection and what not the mind is powerful and you can think through pretty much anything as long as you don’t try to distract yourself from how you’re feeling
