This may not mean anything to anyone but after five years i have finally beaten prey. I have been and still an enormous fan of prey and seeing that my journey has finally come to and end has lead me here. This rap feels so final to me. I feel satisfies yet i can go back for more and not be bored
@@fenchellforelle "Yu" is a Chinese name so that explains why he moved to the US, the Chinese Communist Party would have carted him off to the reeducation camps and changed his name.
''Open your eyes, Life is passing you by'' A very fitting line for me at the least, getting through my senior year of HS and days pass feeling like hours: Hours like seconds and seconds like nothing. I want things to slow down again, to just be easier again. There's going to be a time like that for all of us who can relate, by chance to whoever is reading this, know that you're get through it.
I love this game and song so much. I like to think i have a very powerful imagination. I consider my greatest feature. But i can't express it, I have ADD and Dysgraphia. I hate writing and I'm shitty at it. I want to try art but I'm so bad and it just eats me from the inside when i think of my art. I can't explain it to people because it just drives so much anxiety and makes so many thoughts to hide whatever I'm imagining and that too destroys me. But this game is one of the games that seem real it has an amazing alien race that is just perfect. It's just something that wants to survive and put up against humanity. And just the fact that An alien Biology was able to beat humanity's technology and humanity trying to play God with its own biology is really cool to me. And this rap takes a bite out of the intensity, self reflection, and superiority both sides think they have. I love it Thanks for reading :D
I feel the same. When I try to ignore my ideas I start to feel like I’m trapped and start feeling a bit blue. But the problem with this is maybe the fact that I need to find others to help create something beautiful. And trying to be a writer even though I don’t write that much is a unique experience.
I'm autistic, and being almost done with my first novel, I can promise you you'll hate your writing at first. It will be bad in the beginning, but there's no other way to get good. I relate so much, I felt like my brain was completely full but couldn't write any of it down for the life of me, but lots of practice later, I'm proud of my art. I promise you that it's possible, you can get to where you want to be with it. If you want to write, I promise you that you can do it
2:19-3:45, can't stop listening to, as well as the chorus and "can't remember what happened yesterday" Ah hell, I love the entire song, awesome work guys
You know I’ve listened to this for years and I think it’s among the most perfect game songs out there, my only problem with it is that nerd out was scared to push it just a bit harder on the “my god” and it feels like the verse they had built out there at the climax of the song didn’t carry quite the emotion through
@Soob The Wizard Dishonored was based on Thief so it makes sense that Prey was based on System Shock. Arkane Studios is learning from The Looking Glass Studios, just like Student is learning from a Master
Seriously, this is probably one of the most underrated games of 2017. This game was absolutely amazing. The music, visuals, interesting story and setting, each environment feeling different and unique, traversal, combat, progression system, everything in this game is amazing and its disappointing that most people slept on this game.
"Is it all a dream? Am I still alive? Whats been done to me? Is it all a lie?" that line hits hard after you find out we arent Moragn Yu but a attempt to make Morgan Yu out of a Typhon and to be taught empathy as we get hybridized
I remember playing this mobile game on my iPod back in like 2017 or 2016 and it reminds me of how this game looked, All I remember is you wake up in a hospital and something big happened, then you go back to your house and there is this robot thing on the wall that talks to you, I remember you could walk around and stuff and the camera looks down on you and when you get to the end of an area, there is a loading screen and it loads the next area. It kind of reminded me of Life is Strange. Also the was one of the good quality games that you play in landscape mode and it costed money and had no ads or coins and it had a story to it. I really wish I knew what this game was but I forgot
Prey will forever be one of my all time favourites it felt like bioshock mixed with dishonored in a simulation lol there is not a single floor in talos i havent retried 4 times because of all the options the game gives, a true hands down icon to how far Bethesda has come

This sounds less like a rap for a videogame and more like a rap about existentialism. It's perfect. :D

yep

Well done!
I keep basically softlocking myself lol
congrats man, I'm glad you achieved that
Without context this seems to be a rap about a hangover
Mark Murray true lol
Internet-Idiot but when you think the test is over and you broke the simulation well you’ve got even more coming right at ya
Eglė Senūtienė actually, you should finish the game, to get what he meant by "simulation". He didn't mean the room in the beginning, but a full scale.
Antonio Merten yeah yeah I've seen it. Also prey dlc HYPE

Wait till he figures out just give him time
True respect for JT and Nerdouts success 4 years later and this song still just as good as when released
You guys do choruses incredibly well.
But it's impossible to surpass "Rapture Rising".
Idk... if this isn't my favorite then "Shadow of Myself" would have to be it.
Facts
Valorium Honorium I love both the chorus and the rap but for some reason they don't fit together for me.
You know it bro
Valorium Honorium Bioshock is my child
6 years later, and I can remember how I felt listening to this song for the first time. Thank you everyone who helped make this masterpiece.
Seriously, I remember when this came out. It does NOT feel like its been 4 years
Yes

Well then my friend, you have never heard an Eminem song ;)
Babyp 2.0 *heard
Melody Martinez thanx friend 😁
I Agree JT is my favorite because of it
Hell JT is the only RAPS I listen to
Shion Lindley same 😂
It's crazy to think this game and song are both 5 years old and both are still really good 5 years later
2:19-3:45, can't stop listening to, as well as the chorus and "can't remember what happened yesterday"
Ah hell, I love the entire song, awesome work guys

6 years ago I found out about this game because of this song and finally a few days ago I was able to play Prey, it was something incredible
This game reminds me of Dishonored and Bioshock in space
its supposed to be like deadspace crossed with bioshock and dishonored
@@billcipher3180 Umm. No? System Shock?
@Soob The Wizard Dishonored was based on Thief so it makes sense that Prey was based on System Shock. Arkane Studios is learning from The Looking Glass Studios, just like Student is learning from a Master

Yer

been 3 years since last comment. keepin this alive

"Is it all a dream? Am I still alive? Whats been done to me? Is it all a lie?" that line hits hard after you find out we arent Moragn Yu but a attempt to make Morgan Yu out of a Typhon and to be taught empathy as we get hybridized

5 years later, and this song still holds up as my favorite on this channel.
This game was perfect, i hope games in the future are inspired by this masterpiece.

Always good to come back to my all-time favorite JT Music song. It has some tough competition for that spot, but this one's the GOAT.
this game is basically space bioshock on steroids
[lyrics]:
Intro (JT Music):
Good morning, Morgan Yu
Rise and shine, adorn the suit
A hot coffee cup is yours to brew
Having any deja vu? Ignore it dude
Better head to work, before you do
Look into the mirror - are you sure it's you?
The reflection's become an eye sore to you
Is humanity something you can afford to lose?
Verse 1 (JT Music):
Can't remember what happened yesterday
What's in store for tomorrow?
My ambition has led to outer space
From here who knows where I'll go
Uh, slippin' in and out of lapses in time, how many memories have I been losin'?
Are they hiding inside the confines of my mind, could it be that choice has become illusion?
I'm an addict chasin' a high, just like a junkie, who can never stop usin'
Got the needle deep in my eye, feels like I've become neurologically abusive
Uh, I find it best to question
Every direction, or suggestion that you mention
Don't even know if I woke up in the same dimension
As the one yesterday that I went to bed in
Have I been blessed or infected
Trash this station or protect it?
Eradicate or play defensive
Either way space is a cold grave to rest in
Wake up from your dreams
You might be surprised
Life's not what it seems
Open up your eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep, cuz I'll be reset
Then whatever's left of me will fall to pieces
Let me take a quantum leap, right off the deep end
Might not be who I think, but I can pretend
Get prepared for my ascension
Experiments to which I've been subjected
Tested my limit, and yet I still haven't met it
I'll keep pushing the envelope till all of us regret it
I want an Art Deco monument erected
To commemorate the steps of my progression
Any plans to stop me, I'll toss a wrench in
I won't go down in history, I'll become a legend
Chorus (JT Music):
Open your eyes
Life is passing you by
Break the glass, see through lies
Memories cast to the side
Bridge (NerdOut & JT Music):
I'm an original, no mimicry
Mysteries raveled in lucidity
Perception's an effect of relativity
Message delivered, subliminally
Given a gift, is it sickening me?
Did it lift everything into divinity
If you question my strength then I'll rip you to pieces
And send you adrift into infinity
Verse 2 (NerdOut):
Is it all a dream?
Am I still alive?
What's been done to me?
Is it all a lie?
I'm questioning everything my little eyes lies on
These things are stalking in the shadows, turn the lights on
Is it a TV or a Typhon? Anything that I saw
Could potentially become a ticking time bomb
Hold up, maybe I'm wrong, maybe it's illusions, and these experiments have got my mind gone
And if Alex has anything to do with these delusions, I refuse to let bygones be bygones
That's where the line's drawn, family doesn't do that to each other, wait a minute, is this my fault?
TranStar's an icon, they would never let these aliens invade and make their way behind these eyeballs
I'm on the edge of insanity and I might fall
I got decisions, I'm hoping I make the right call
Staring into the void, you can never tell whenever night falls
When I close my eyes in my mind I'm screaming my god
Power has been quantified
Neurons have been modified
Cranium is compromised
Is this a life or a lie?
Now I must step in the light
Deal with deception and lies
Find my direction and fight
As long as I am alive
Pre-chorus (JT Music):
Can't remember what happened yesterday
What's in store for tomorrow?
My ambition has led to outer space
From here who knows where I'll go
Chorus (JT Music):
Open your eyes
Life is passing you by
Break the glass, see through lies
Memories cast to the side
Open your eyes
Open your eyes
Open your eyes
Only one you also give credits too
You people have way too much fucking time on your hands
I love the effort you put into music😃
one of the most amazing games, with an equally amazing song
I love this as much I love this game. It is my favorite game.
I can't believe that this game and this song came out around 6 years ago.
This is too much fire call the fire department 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This causes the california wildfires cuz this shits lit
idk why but the game reminds me of bioshock XD
Is it because you have a wrench in the game?
It’s has gene mods too
i know its like the space version of bioshock.
You mean System Shock?
Prey is inspired by both games, and Bioshock is kind of inspired by System Shock.
NerdOut's part nailed it. Awesome song and awesome collab as well.
Now we need JT Machinima and Gavin (Miracle of Sound) to write and sing a song
NEVER CLICKED SO FAST
Same
Lel
same
It's been 5 maybe 6 years every time I hear it my brain has an orgasm of nostalgia and dopamine
This song will never die
This was 6 years ago...holy shit...
Yep, I remember listening to it day 1
Am I the only one who hears the “Requiem for a dream” melody in the background?
Thanks, JT Machinima
Gaming X ???
2:18 is like when two sides of a person are fighting for control
I've always thought of it as Morgan Yu and his Mimic side fighting for control
Old jt music just had this quality to it that they only recently started to rediscover
I love this game and have probably listened to this song for 2 years now.
1:21 that cup is a typhon
3:45 best part
Life's not what is seems.
6 years later and it is still a BOP.
This is so amazing
I agree with Catso9555 but it’s been 4 years
Dam time flys
It's been 5 year and it's still booming
Still love this song
Oh that chair just moved oh that chair is getting really close i guess i should walk faster oh god oh god oh god oh god OH GOD AHHHHHHHHHHH
Oh no
"Might not be who I think but I can pretend." A line that is underrated
this is Honestly my favorite song out of all of Jt music, Please keep up the great work guys!
i've only just played the game, now this song makes sense!
This is still fire, just like how the game is amazing even to this day
This game is so fuckin underrated like it honestly deserved a lot more popularity than it got
Why does this fit so well in todays climate?
I really aPREYciated that song! It was unPREYdictable! I PREY every days for good music like this.
Matthew Allister pun intended
I cant PREYvent it.
OOH the pun
the puns are strong with this one
I dont PREYtend to make puns. I'm PREYtty sure it comes naturally.
Immaculate Song

Such a Beautiful Game
With so many Incredible Details
