For those who still have your parents, if you don't already do this, save their voicemails, save their texts. Put them somewhere safe. When my mom died I had one saved voicemail - I never thought I'd need them. Now I wish I had saved it all. Even her texts. After listening to this song I went back to check and there was a thread, but it was just messages from me when she was in the hospital and couldn't respond. My dad is still here. I save every single voicemail he leaves me.
For real, dad passed 4 months ago and the only thing that keeps me sane is listening to his voicemails. I only have 4 and he wasn't much of a talker lol but 3 of them he didn't realize he never hung up(classic dad move) so it stayed on for another 15 mins of the sound of him talking to his coworkers or laughing at the sports talk radio he listens to. Never thought that those mins I can listen to simply him being him would be so impactful for me. Wish I had more so bad, miss you POPs
Lost my brother in 04 and my mom in 08. I have none of their voicemails or texts cause I was so young and didn't know better. This song hits me in my soul.
@@JayElectronica Brother, it's powerful that you'd join us as we surround this good brother here with prayers for comfort in his time of great pain. This track binds us. Blessings unlimited, my brother ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّٰهِ 🙏
“The day my momma died I scrolled her textes all day long.” I heard this & broke down crying.. if you still have a mother, that love can never be duplicated. My phone soaking wet right now..I love you mom
This song is on the level of Better in Tune with the Infinite for being one of the most beautiful songs we’ve ever been blessed with. Such a brutally honest and perfect closer to such a long awaited and totally worth it record.
My brother, when this dropped I felt it in my chest. Last night, I lost my mother, now I feel it in my soul, my heart, my bones...been crying for the past 24 hours...wild emotional swings all day...fine one moment, bent over in the worst pain the next. Thank you for this work of art. Peace to all those who know the unique pain of losing their momma. RIP momma. Thank you for loving me. Thank you for believing in me. It hurts, but I'm glad you're no longer suffering. -your baby boy
My Mom spent some time next to me when she was ill. She took a taxi from home to come and stay with me for a few days so I can take care of her in Durban. Where everything is near... Pharmacy, Shops and the Beach. We would walk up to the roof so she can feel the breeze and look around while we conversate and come back to the house. And she'll asked for a her favorite meal. Me and my Girlfriend we took care of her until she went back home coz she was missing her grandkids. She called me and said she was feeling better now. After the visit She lives happier for 2 weeks than God took her...She died, I'm still hearing her voice in the back of my mind whenever I'm thinking of her. Thank you Jay Electronica for this song. I'm a fan from South Africa, KwaZulu-Natal, Durban ❤❤❤
Never in my life did I think I'd hear Jay-Z and Khruangbin on the same song but it works so well! Such a serene and powerful combination, thank you Jay Electronica!
I lost my Grandfather the weekend that this album came out. Literally watched him take his last breath on this Earth. This song here helped with the grieving process immensely, and it will always hold a place in my heart that is too special. I can barely listen to the whole thing without shedding tears to it. Rest In Power to Ralph Hubert Cole Sr. aka 'Pop Pop' Save a spot for me in Paradise and Continue to Rest Well. We Love and Miss You.
I haven’t lost my mom yet but I can’t hold he tears back while listening to this. The eventuality of losing everyone we love brings such raw anxiety. I cry with you brother, and I thank you for this masterpiece. Alhamdulillah 🤲🏾
Timeless track right on time. Once again appreciate your transparency. This was recorded the night Kobe passed...”its needed.” Peace to Queen Dorothy Flowers 🤲🏾
This is, to be frank about it, the best song i've heard all year. And the year before that. Took ten years to get here, and I'd wait another ten for more.
"Now I understand why you used to cry something we ride day down Clayborne" Will never forget the day I saw my mother cry for the first time, in her fathers funeral. Be grateful for who you have and dont ever take this for granted. Thank you for this Jay Electronica
I listened to this a year ago. Read all the comments about people losing a parent. Never thought I’d come back here to tell my father to REST IN PEACE. I love you so much dad. Rest easy big Chief ❤️
The subtleness of the drums is like quietly knocking on heaven's door trying to peek through to see them smile one last time. The gift of life to the gift of eternity. The Creator, master of all. Sleep well.
I’m there too Within three years I’ve lost my grand mother, My mother and my father. Never imagined I could feel such an intense sadness. I came here for the song At least I am not alone…🙏🏾
The most painful thing in life is the time wasted fighting with a loved one. Time you will never get back. If you’re still lucky enough… make every second count ✌🏽
This song brought real tears to my eyes, I still have both my parents but lost my aunt sometime last year and I’ve never handled it well but I think this song just allows me to think about her and remember her voice, I never wanted to see her body after she passed but I did it and when I tell you seeing her like that as my last time has been haunting me every day ever since. I miss you Aunty and this song allows me to miss you deeply and dearly.
If you ever lost a family member or someone you love, this track gonna hit you deep in your soul. I haven't heard a song to make me feel this way in a long time. Dope track Jay Elect. Much love from the Boot.
"Sometimes I wonder do the Trees get sad when they see Leaves fell?" This line is so damn powerful man , i send my love to those who're going through Darkness ...After Darkness there's always Light , better dayz are coming....🙌🙌 Keep Praying , Keep Having Faith
I still come back to this from time to time and it hits the same every single time. I tear up every time. Probably the most beautifully written songs I’ve ever heard. ♥️
When he says “I don’t want this thing to-“ that hits me deeply cause it’s like if he finishes the sentence and says “End” then that means that the thing he didn’t want to end, ends. Kinda like relationships and life and etc. it doesn’t have to end if you don’t let yourself think it has to end.
I've been going back to this song after my father passed away last year. It helps me process my pain and realize that even though my father isn't here right now, we are still connected spiritually. I go back to his voice notes and hear pure love, thank you baba for everything you have done for me.
Learn from them everyday, listen carefully and pay attention to the wisdom they impart on you. for these moments you have with them while in the physical will carry you when they are in spirit. I hope I didn't come across as cold hearted
I lost my grandmother a week before this came out. I had this song on reply while I broke down nd mourned her properly. I cried i screamed I was torn inside for a woman I barely knew. Cherish who u have nd what time u have left yall. Thank u electronica. This song is forever precious to me.
Everytime i listen to this song it makes me understand why my paw paw would shed tears as we rode through new orleans.. He missed his mama how i miss him. RIP to the earth angels
I remember when I 1st heard this song. The track cries, then Jay-z is trying to figure out his expression. Jay Electronica comes in and makes it about his momma. I was like wow. It's like when you heard that RnB song n couldn't really relate to the words especially as a inexperienced youngster. Fast forward.. Lost my momma in March 2024. I cry now every time those guitar notes are strumming. It hits fuckin different is an under statement. I knew I was going to lose her so the last few years of her life, I made it my business to make memories with her. I tell everyone who's mom is still alive. Show them.. don't just tell them. My conscience is at peace because I know my mom felt the love and respect that I had for her. I miss u, momma, and this song allows me to release that sorrow n pain. All Praise Is Due To Allah. 🤲🏽
This is the only Jay Electronica song that has ever made me shed a lot of tears listening to it. Don’t mind me. I’m still missing & loving my mom forever, & this song always struck a cord with me. Father, I pray that You please heal all damaged parent/children relationships, PLEASE FATHER! Amen!
Eyes welled up listening to this, the thought of losing my parents is something I can’t dwell on for too long 🙏🏾 My condolences to you and your family. May your mom rest peacefully 💖
This is probably my 2nd RUclips comment ever and I’ve been on RUclips for at least 15 years. This isn’t a song, this is a heavenly sent hym straight from god We just laid my grandmother to rest yesterday and I’ve ran this song about 800 times. I was able to cry, feel peace, cry again. Thank you both Jay’s Rest in Heaven Grandma Gussie. If it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t know GOD
today marks four years since my lovely father passed away due to his long cancer battle, when jay said " the last time that i kissed you , you felt cold but you looked peaceful " it brought back that painful memory , where there's nothing else left to do but to let them go , somewhere they're no longer suffering and fighting for survival , and accepting the harsh reality of never seeing them again and just constantly missing them . this song will forever hold a special place in my heart , and i pray to Allah that he showers you jay and everyone who had to go through this with patience and love
Elect's verse:the most beautifully and vividly painted work of art I've ever seen,,,yes,seen."the day momma died i scrolled her texts all day long",I can actually visualize that and empathize,,,"maan its needed,its needed"
I lost my sister last year. And this song just hits in all the right places. I have a voicemail that I replay over and over again. Just to hear her voice. Always tell your loved you love em no matter what. My biggest regret was not telling her I loved her on our last call.
It’s hard to listen to this song but I can’t help but listen to it. Does anyone else feel the same way. Man this song gets me every time. RIP to the loved ones we lost
My mom passed away just over 3 weeks ago, and this track has reached a new depth for me. So beautiful, yet every time I listen to it I remember my mom, the voice I'll never hear again, the hugs I'll never be able to give her. Blessings to all, take your time with your parents everyone.
BEYOND grateful to have been spared, I am a living testimony modern day Lazarus! ALL the glory, honor, and praise be unto my ELHOMIN YaHUaH! My soul cries out halaluYAH!📯📯📯
One of the hardest things to go through in life was losing my parents.. these lyrics cut deep because u realize how the smallest things like a text or a phone call would mean so much right now.. prayers and strength for anyone that’s has lost a loved one! We’re going get through this
The emotion in the music is all 'khruangbin - a hymn' ... it's literally the whole song not just a little sample. This is a fantastic use of it imo, just letting folks know its them if you don't ... show some respect, khruangbin are an out of this world phenomenal levels of groove and emotion kinda band as you can hear here ... ✌️
This song just broke me down in tears. I was so mad at my mom and didn’t answer when she called me. She left me a voicemail didn’t listen to it I erased it 😔. The good lord called her home 2 days later. That was 4 years ago. I’m still hurting from that till this day. Be blessed and let the little things go because you never know when the good lord is ready to do his roll call ❤
This album, every single song, every lyric, every instrumental, is beautiful. Best album I ever heard. No songs were skipped. I'm so glad that Jay Electronica exists. ❤️💯
Jay Elects verse is the most beautifully written verse I’ve ever heard, grammy nominated 💛
Bro some of the most meaningful words I’ve heard in a while
I mean u are absolutely right
Absolutely, people seriously underrate him.i just love all the music he releases.
He always writes the best verses. He is in a school of great rappers that are criminally underrated.

Thank you both Jay’s
Rest in Heaven Grandma Gussie. If it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t know GOD
❤
This killed me and healed me, truly magic.
today marks four years since my lovely father passed away due to his long cancer battle, when jay said " the last time that i kissed you , you felt cold but you looked peaceful " it brought back that painful memory , where there's nothing else left to do but to let them go , somewhere they're no longer suffering and fighting for survival , and accepting the harsh reality of never seeing them again and just constantly missing them . this song will forever hold a special place in my heart , and i pray to Allah that he showers you jay and everyone who had to go through this with patience and love
Elect's verse:the most beautifully and vividly painted work of art I've ever seen,,,yes,seen."the day momma died i scrolled her texts all day long",I can actually visualize that and empathize,,,"maan its needed,its needed"
I lost my sister last year. And this song just hits in all the right places. I have a voicemail that I replay over and over again. Just to hear her voice. Always tell your loved you love em no matter what. My biggest regret was not telling her I loved her on our last call.
Beautiful song to end off this album.
R.I.P. to Stephen Hillenburg, DMX, MF Doom, Shock G, Kobe Bryant, Chadwick Boseman, Michael K Williams, Stan Lee, and Mac Miller
Jay elects verse is my favorite of all time hands down

Jah bless Khruangbin for letting Jay sample them
It’s hard to listen to this song but I can’t help but listen to it. Does anyone else feel the same way. Man this song gets me every time. RIP to the loved ones we lost
My mom passed away just over 3 weeks ago, and this track has reached a new depth for me. So beautiful, yet every time I listen to it I remember my mom, the voice I'll never hear again, the hugs I'll never be able to give her. Blessings to all, take your time with your parents everyone.
BEYOND grateful to have been spared, I am a living testimony modern day Lazarus! ALL the glory, honor, and praise be unto my ELHOMIN YaHUaH! My soul cries out halaluYAH!📯📯📯
One of the hardest things to go through in life was losing my parents.. these lyrics cut deep because u realize how the smallest things like a text or a phone call would mean so much right now.. prayers and strength for anyone that’s has lost a loved one! We’re going get through this
The emotion in the music is all 'khruangbin - a hymn' ... it's literally the whole song not just a little sample. This is a fantastic use of it imo, just letting folks know its them if you don't ... show some respect, khruangbin are an out of this world phenomenal levels of groove and emotion kinda band as you can hear here ... ✌️
Jay Z put his voice on every track. Funked the whole album up.
This song just broke me down in tears. I was so mad at my mom and didn’t answer when she called me. She left me a voicemail didn’t listen to it I erased it 😔. The good lord called her home 2 days later. That was 4 years ago. I’m still hurting from that till this day. Be blessed and let the little things go because you never know when the good lord is ready to do his roll call ❤
Sorry for you lost 😔....
Thank you 🙏🏽
This song inspired me to produce a song for my grandma. It really hit home Man!
This album, every single song, every lyric, every instrumental, is beautiful. Best album I ever heard. No songs were skipped. I'm so glad that Jay Electronica exists. ❤️💯
A breathe of crisp fresh air. Thankh you JE
