Imagine your headphones falling out in class with this on and then just hearing ‘it’s a stick up nobody make a sound even hiccup or I’m emptying a round’
Can we take a moment and just appreciate how each one of his songs sounds f*cking amazing but totally different? You listen to Best Friends and you want to party, this song wants to make you overthrow a government, and Despicable makes you want to have a tragic relationship. The talent here is real.
Hopefully it turns around, I've been struggling, and watching everyone tell me it's ok... depression clenching my throat and dragging me down, watching the ignorant lead me closer to the edge. It's gotta change, can't do another 4 years like this...
Can't wait for grandson to become super popular Edit: so i used to listen to this man all the time and i’m coming back to him after seeing him on tik tok. It’s really cool to see how i found him in bury me face down and now he got on billboard charts
Henry Cho to be fair, many of them just came from Riverdale. i think when people say "super popular" and such, they mean on their own if that makes sense.

@@purplemagic2688 not it didn't. It partially shutdown. Only some parts of the government are shutdown. Most people don't understand this but now you know :) If it were to be fully shutdown chaos would erupt all over the country, trust.
I discovered Grandson about a month and a half ago (the song i found was blood//water) and i was slowly listening to the songs one at a time (i do that to appreciate the lyrics) and i could see how anyone could be like 'meh it's an okay song' but that's because they don't pay attention to the lyrics, to really understand the song you have to listen and appreciate the lyrics and then you can finally understand how amazing of an artist grandson is and how amazing his songs are. It was crazy when he released modern tradegy because now i have a bunch of new songs i can now appreciate.

I´m from Germany and have been to the US 2 times. It´s horrifying how divided this Nation is and how deeply the mindset of "we have to obey authorities and god, rich People are the real heroes" is rooted in them. People Need to riot. People there need to protest. Not against Immigration. But against the wage gap. For a better educational and medical System.
Kas - here another one! I've been listening grandson for few months before fbr signing him! Ididn't expect that because his music is different from other FBR artists! But i'm so happy he has a label that can helps him to spread his incredible talent Worldwide! XX I-/

It’s why I’ve always loved FBR, they see talent and give it the opportunities it deserves regardless of who they are! Also, love your name x |-/
This song's lyrics are so true. It is so sad to admit that in this society wherever you are, a shooting, robbery, or even just a violent act can just come out onto the streets at any time. Imagine the technology in the future that can make weapons and other defenses so much more tragic as time passes. Grandson captures all of these and actually adds MEANING to the songs instead of just random horrible lyrics like popular music today.
+Dannie Mike Shinoda, you might know him better as the rapper/guitarist/keyboardist/producer of Linkin Park. He's dropped some new music of his own. Hence the reference. AND he did a song with grandson, which is how most LP fans(including myself) got to know about him.
I replayed this song twice, first while reading the lyrics, the 2nd time drinking a beer and shaking my head violently Edit: fucking love the message of the song
I'm obsessed yet terrified. When I was really little (2 or 3) two men came into a restaurant my stepmum, dad, stepbrother and I were dining at with a gun. As soon as my Dad saw him he discreetly hid my stepbrother, stepmother, a few other kids and I in the bathroom as the men robbed the restaurant of all their money. I had no idea what happened until I was 10
I am so glad I can be part of this. Im in love with your music and you never seem to dissappoint me with it. The way that bridge builds the tension and the way it drops is just genius. Also the message is pretty important too and I love it. It isnt just 'walk it like i talk it'. Thank you for this piece of music that I would never be able to find elsewhere
I really appreciate this song, it speaks about how we have a huge mental health problem in America(and other countries) but the government doesn't care at all and they leave these people with mental health issues without any help and leave them with access to dangerous tools(guns in this case). As someone who suffers from mental health problems I thank you, grandson.
No, it's rather about a perfectly healthy person being pushed into a corner and beyond. It's about the only mentally sane response to such a situation: revolution, an uproar, taking down your oppressors.
@@LSunknownnumber1 If you think serious mental health problems don't mainly come from healthy people being pushed too far into a corner, then you don't understand shit about mental health. The song literally brings up PTSD. What do you think PTSD is, lol?
This song should be shown to every one in the states. It has meaning to many middle class and poverty aspects in the USA. A cold wind is blowing and this song is a good warning
Now, Tommy's a good father Two sons and a daughter But he wakes up and he asks himself: "Why even bother?"

... why does this encapsulate the moment a bit more every day... It feels prophetic, and you can identify with it more and more.. a fire is started with 1 match. When will it be, if is seeming less likely when you see the natives getting restless...
My teacher actually met Grandson a while ago. Grandson was opening for my teacher's band. Apparently he's a really cool and kind person! Glad to see he's getting the recognition he deserves :)
This is exactly the type of music I love. I’ve never heard a song like this and I doubt I ever will. Only grandson can pull this off, and that’s what’s so great about it. In a world where music is repetitive and generic, this is a great find!
*whispers* Everybody on the ground, its a stick up! Nobody make a sound, dont even hiccup or I'm emptying a round! I'm done play games so I'm going down in flames let it rain over washington.
I've found this song a week after it was uploaded and ive been listening to "a modern tragedy vol.1" for a whole 3 months straight and its still gold. im waiting for modern tragedy vol.2 whos with me
Is. Was. And always will be. One of the greatest songs. Speaking to the masses. Such an amazing song and artist. This and 6:00. Are both perfect songs. Still to this day, and sadly most likely for many years in the future.
I don't necessarily agree with all of grandson's politics, but what I really respect is him actually doing something about what he believes, spreading his message with his gorgeous talent. We need more people like him who actually do what they can instead of just whining. We'd have more powerful art like this if we did.
Yall should hear this live. Best mosh pit I've ever been in. The dude is incredible and the hype he builds in a crowd is unparalleled. This song is amazing and so is grandson.

"...Took away his benefits, but left him with his weapon"
Wow.
Ya that’s what people say to me when I tell em.
Grandson says what is directly wrong in the word. He doesn't romanticize it.
How did you get 438 likes just by saying a line off the song
@@water2052 ikr
This is what people say when I am ready to play a video game lmao
"Going down in flames, let it rain over Washington" went too damn literal
Why even bother
To be fair it always is raining in WA, ha. ha
Shit. Facts.
The constitution actually supports this
i thot it was brain noma washington
Song's very relevant in the last couple days lol
Grandson should be in his own genre of riot music.
I didn’t know I needed that as a genre of music, but I do now.

Yes
True there probably is already a genre of metal or punk called riot music though lmao. Metal has so many genres of music.

He's just that good
its mostly the beat, the lyrcics are ignorant and bias,

You listen to Best Friends and you want to party, this song wants to make you overthrow a government, and Despicable makes you want to have a tragic relationship. The talent here is real.
>>makes you want to have a tragic relationship
you're alone on this one kiddo

~ Lyrics
Now, Tommy's a good father
of two sons and a daughter,
but he wakes up and he asks himself:
'Why even bother?'
If he cannot feed his family
The wage he's paid's insanity
Every day he's dealing with a new calamity
Lost his old occupation,
but it wasn't immigration
It was a machine, automation, that replaced him
Politicians left him, corruption since the recession
So he grabs his Smith and Wesson
Says he'll teach 'em all a lesson like
'Get down on the ground
It's a stick up
Nobody make a sound
Don't even hiccup, or I'm emptying a round
I'm done playing games, so I'm going down in flames
Let it rain over Washington
It's a stick up
Nobody make a sound
Don't even hiccup, or I'm emptying a round
I'm done playing games, so I'm going down in flames
Let it rain over Washington'
Now first he'd lost his pension
Sunk into depression
Congress is defecting
It's been adding to the tension
Came back from war and he's been post-traumatic stressing
Can't afford his medicine he took for his aggression
He needs help, relying on this system that rejects him
Took away his benefits, but left him with his weapon
Bought a one way ticket
He's entering the thicket
To do the only thing that he's thinking will make a difference like
'Get down on the ground
It's a stick up
Nobody make a sound
Don't even hiccup, or I'm emptying a round
I'm done playing games, so I'm going down in flames
Let it rain over Washington
It's a stick up
Nobody make a sound
Don't even hiccup, or I'm emptying a round
I'm done playing games, so I'm going down in flames
Let it rain over Washington'

There is a lot of good rap if you look for it, also this isn’t rap.
He only uses rap beats, he doesn't really rap
Blank B there not really rap beats either. More like 'Trap music' I think

I know right two artists
I was introduced to this guy by mike's music. Glad about that.
Who is Mike?
+Dannie Mike Shinoda, you might know him better as the rapper/guitarist/keyboardist/producer of Linkin Park. He's dropped some new music of his own. Hence the reference. AND he did a song with grandson, which is how most LP fans(including myself) got to know about him.
I replayed this song twice, first while reading the lyrics, the 2nd time drinking a beer and shaking my head violently
Edit:
fucking love the message of the song
Can you read minds??
1st while embracing the lyrics
2nd while starting a revolution.
6 years after im doing the same thing
These killer rhymes though
Hey grandkids, don’t mind me just picking this song up for the Dc Protest
This didn’t age well
Holy shit you predicted the future
@Weston Kardel about as well as milk, by my reckoning.
So this fits the theme of June 2020 . . .
Hey but the song is pretty fire, dude!
heck yes, this is live!
life*
Radio Killed Music NO H*CKS ON MY CRISTiAN COMMENTs
This is so good, where have you been all my life
He only started making music a year or two ago
I'm obsessed yet terrified. When I was really little (2 or 3) two men came into a restaurant my stepmum, dad, stepbrother and I were dining at with a gun. As soon as my Dad saw him he discreetly hid my stepbrother, stepmother, a few other kids and I in the bathroom as the men robbed the restaurant of all their money. I had no idea what happened until I was 10
That came out of noware
This song is anti-gun for a reason
Heliocorpus Kek
@@raleighburton3532 why are you here
@@traceurs4080 cause I like the song?
How this aged nicely
those slow desending drums are so FIRE at 3:08 makes the transition SO SATISFYING
nothing better than a fucken BANGER with a good message, keep it up man your music inspires the soul
Ah Grandson released an EP? Finally, some good fucking food.
"Food"😂
I am so glad I can be part of this. Im in love with your music and you never seem to dissappoint me with it. The way that bridge builds the tension and the way it drops is just genius. Also the message is pretty important too and I love it. It isnt just 'walk it like i talk it'. Thank you for this piece of music that I would never be able to find elsewhere
Everyone here has great taste in music 😌
hell yeah we do
thank you
Me, who disliked the video: *Why, thank you, kind sir!*
Edit: It was a joke, I didn't dislike.
@@rednoodleoffate oh well that's ok, we all have different opinions on music:)
@@zoya5222 now that's positivity for a music about school shootings
Becomes more relevant every year...
Amazing lyrics, amazing sound. Voice of our generation!
Entered video peacefully, left wanting to start a riot and punch a politician.
Good!
YESSIR
Welcome to America where we worship hamborger and want to punch our polititions... even the ok ones.
This song's like aren't you sick of being nice
Don't you just want to go apeshitt 😈
I always want to punch a politician
We still haven't finished Overdose, yet a new song is here!
deadset dont know any artist deserving of success more than this fella. finally some fucking substance.
I really appreciate this song, it speaks about how we have a huge mental health problem in America(and other countries) but the government doesn't care at all and they leave these people with mental health issues without any help and leave them with access to dangerous tools(guns in this case). As someone who suffers from mental health problems I thank you, grandson.
No, it's rather about a perfectly healthy person being pushed into a corner and beyond. It's about the only mentally sane response to such a situation: revolution, an uproar, taking down your oppressors.
@@LSunknownnumber1 If you think serious mental health problems don't mainly come from healthy people being pushed too far into a corner, then you don't understand shit about mental health. The song literally brings up PTSD. What do you think PTSD is, lol?
This song should be shown to every one in the states. It has meaning to many middle class and poverty aspects in the USA. A cold wind is blowing and this song is a good warning
Grandson will be the soundtrack of the next revolution, you cnt change my mind
Now, Tommy's a good father
Two sons and a daughter
But he wakes up and he asks himself:
"Why even bother?"
If he cannot feed his family
The wage he's paid's insanity
Every day he's dealing with a new calamity
Lost his old occupation
But it wasn't immigration
It was a machine, automation that replaced him
Politicians left him, corruption since the recession
So he grabs his Smith and Wesson, says he'll teach 'em all the lesson like:
"Get down on the ground!
It's a stick up! Nobody make a sound!
Don't even hiccup, or I'm emptying a round!
I'm done playing games, so I'm going down in flames!
Let it rain over Washington!
It's a stick up! Nobody make a sound!
Don't even hiccup, or I'm emptying a round!
I'm done playing games, so I'm going down in flames!
Let it rain over Washington!"
Now first he'd lost his pension
Sunk into depression
Congress is defecting
It's been adding to the tension
Came back from war, and he's been post-traumatic stressing
Can't afford his medicine he took for his aggression
He needs help, relying on this system that rejects him
Took away his benefits, but left him with his weapon
Bought a one way ticket
He's entering the thicket
To do the only thing that he's thinking will make a difference like:
"Get down on the ground!
It's a stick up! Nobody make a sound!
Don't even hiccup, or I'm emptying a round
I'm done playing games, so I'm going down in flames!
Let it rain over Washington!
It's a stick up! Nobody make a sound!
Don't even hiccup, or I'm emptying a round!
I'm done playing games, so I'm going down in flames!
Let it rain over Washington!"
There's a cold wind blowing
I'm just warning and preparing ya
There's a cold wind blowing
And it's coming for America
And it's coming for America
And it's coming for America
"Get down on the ground!
It's a stick up! Nobody make a sound!
Don't even hiccup, or I'm emptying a round!
I'm done playing games, so I'm going down in flames!
Let it rain over Washington!
It's a stick up! Nobody make a sound!
Don't even hiccup, or I'm emptying a round!
I'm done playing games, so I'm going down in flames!
Let it rain over Washington!"
... why does this encapsulate the moment a bit more every day...
It feels prophetic, and you can identify with it more and more.. a fire is started with 1 match. When will it be, if is seeming less likely when you see the natives getting restless...
This is deep 👍
I'm glad I found grandson, he's been making me feel more confident in myself.
Catchy right from the beginning
The US government is shaking
Wig
Their wigs have been fucking snatched they are quaking rn. They watched their wigs fly all the way to North Korea when this song dropped
The entire earth is quaking
Blanca Bizzotto Trump's wig is shook and is lost lol true
I wheezed
TODAY I LOVE MY LIFE
oh wow SAME HERE I WOKE UP IN A GOOD MOOD FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MONTHS
Suicide Aesthetic who me?
Suicide Aesthetic (:
damn, that’s pretty e d g y
Same here and I just lived this song.😏😏😏😏
how is this five years old but it fits so well now-a-day
Thoughts and copays to the CEO of UnitedHealth
lol
the hole in his brain was probably just a preexisting condition
Dude this song is INSANE
This song is good for a trailer about a action movie
True. In fact I am here from a bank heist scene on a series
A minute in and it's amazing already. This ep sounds amazing so far, barely 2 songs in!
Imagine a music video with snippets of the 2020 riots and vietnam and him singing this.
It would be such a powerful piece of art.
Why do all his songs make me want to cry while simultaneously smiling like a child with a new puppy and also take over the world?
I was so happy when I heard this on The Gifted last night! Such a nice surprise!
I love how his songs speak the truth about what’s wrong w/ society today.💯💯
Donnea Allen we are society.
@@CryptidGrimm finally somebody said it!
we live
"Don't even hiccup, or i'm emptying a round!"
Possibly the most savage line i've personally ever heard from a song.
The picture for the album matches this song perfectly lol.
If you search "stick up grandson" it will have Mickey mouse with a gun
after 4 years, at 9.9 million views, not bad but this song deserves so much more credit. My favorite song from Grandson
My teacher actually met Grandson a while ago. Grandson was opening for my teacher's band. Apparently he's a really cool and kind person! Glad to see he's getting the recognition he deserves :)
roses are red, violets are blue.
when i listen to grandson,
my neighbours do too.
some of his musics started showing up in my recomended and i decided to listen to his other musics and holy shit i love every single one
Theses songs make me wanna get sick be how real they are I’m hooked...
This is exactly the type of music I love. I’ve never heard a song like this and I doubt I ever will. Only grandson can pull this off, and that’s what’s so great about it. In a world where music is repetitive and generic, this is a great find!
"There's a cold wind blowin... I'm just warnin ya... there's a cold wind blowin, AND IT'S COMING FOR AMERICA!" I LOVE that part!!
Cringe emo
This guy is wicked good!! Saw him with Joywave in Omaha. He was amazing. I knew he was good, but that was a fantastic show! Much respect
*whispers* Everybody on the ground, its a stick up! Nobody make a sound, dont even hiccup or I'm emptying a round! I'm done play games so I'm going down in flames let it rain over washington.
ew, i genuinely said this when i read this out in a whispered voice, it gave me chills.
"There's a cold wind blowing
And it's coming for America"
Chicago is now - 55..
I've found 'Bury me face down' watching Arrow and that was the best thing that ever happened. Your musics are AWESOME
This song makes the other side of most criminals very tragic and somehow relatable, sad, and a great song.
I am so happy I misclicked. New favorite artist.
band ?? BAND BRUH??? U JOKING its nto a band brush
@@joytimi5334 well, since I didn't know who they were until yesterday, please forgive me for calling them a band
@@twilightpheonix7357 he* was * him*
@@twilightpheonix7357 it isnt they since its one person pretty sure
@@joytimi5334 ooooh okay thank you for clarifying
NEW ALBUM YAY!!
I've found this song a week after it was uploaded and ive been listening to "a modern tragedy vol.1" for a whole 3 months straight and its still gold. im waiting for modern tragedy vol.2
whos with me
Is. Was. And always will be. One of the greatest songs. Speaking to the masses. Such an amazing song and artist. This and 6:00. Are both perfect songs. Still to this day, and sadly most likely for many years in the future.
I don't necessarily agree with all of grandson's politics, but what I really respect is him actually doing something about what he believes, spreading his message with his gorgeous talent. We need more people like him who actually do what they can instead of just whining. We'd have more powerful art like this if we did.
honestly, he's bringing light to situations, not just spreading fear and hate
Future generations will find this and think it's a prophecy.
This is going on my 2020 riot playlist
This song crazy for the start of 2021
This man's words truly do indicate the Modern Tragedy of today.
The rebel kid!!!
the best birthday present ever lmao 💕
Vladescu Luiza Mihaela Happy b0rthday
thankks💕
Same boi
15th for me. :)
i think that was a divination for 2020
Me, in 2021:
Well,
Yes
i actually gasped when i got the notification for this
2:47 onwards holy shit
Yall should hear this live. Best mosh pit I've ever been in. The dude is incredible and the hype he builds in a crowd is unparalleled. This song is amazing and so is grandson.
