Shaq love my nigga. Been a fan for awhile now. What's good. Finish that man
This whole album was incredible. Been on repeat since it came out!
I love you contact bro keep it up
It really wasn't but ok
It was weak for Joyner
Between the new albums of Joyner , Benny the Butcher and Busta , they're definitively being shuffled together in a playlist , by themselves. Amazing playlist to vibe and drive too.
Yea this wasn’t that good of a project
Joyner never fails to deliver a story with his music. That’s what I like about him.
True story
@R3N Since 2018
@R3N That's How Long I've Been A Fan I Don't Know About That Person
It’s inspirational, he telling a story that has its own lesson in them, love his music
@R3N Hey Same I Make Music As Well And I Got Alot Of Inspiration From Alot Of Artist Him And Others Like Hopsin And Em Biggie Pac And Others

Facts👑
This is exactly my story with my father. At 40 now, my sadness has changed from inward towards my own pain, to outward towards my father. My father has never spoken a word about his childhood, however, I do understand his childhood was very painful. He duplicated how his father treated him, at me. Still does today. Although I haven't spoken to him in over a year (used to be every week until I stood up for myself. Now he refuses contact. Go figure)... The moment my son was born, I committed to him I would change our family curse and grow a NEW tree branch off our family tree. No longer will our family branches reside in the cold shade. From me downward, our branches will grow towards the sunshine and prosper. I am incredibly grateful to have been blessed with a son and although it has not been an easy road, my son and I have an amazing relationship and I am forever grateful. I love you son ❤ I am so proud of you 🙏
Keep telling your boy that
@@MrDnbfreak Thank you 🙏
I'm proud of you and I don't know you. Keep being awesome. I'm a single mom raising my son without a father but I do my best to let him know it has nothing to do with him without bad mouthing his dad. Best of luck to you
This song hit home. I’ll never understand how you couldn’t be a father to your child.

I never met my father, I never was able to find the way to express how I felt. Now I have a tool, this song and video. Thank you Joyner.
Cocaine by royce da 5 9 hits me even tho i never had a dad either
Lupe fiasco he say she say
His music isn’t just music, it’s lyrical therapy for me.

My thoughts exactly! So deep and impactful! 👏🏽❤
@@foxybrown3857 fr
Same here❤️🎶😌
I always say that as well!! 😂😂
Rap therapy. More effective & cheaper than actual therapy. God bless! 💕
One of the most relatable and hardest bars in music for me:
“I worked my ass off to get rich, let's not confuse
I sacrificed my whole twenties just so I can move
While everybody else was chillin', hangin' out with crews
I was writin' a plan to finally win while tryin' not to lose “
Damn straight! That was deep.
Word
That's something many of us relate to i guess. I'm in that time right now. 22 and been working for a while, trying to get myself a house and stuff but it's hard.
Fr fr..I relate to him🔥

Boy penned all his emotions in this song. One of the reasons why he’s one of my favorite rappers

Agreed, only rappers i can compare him to are hopsin and Lupae Filius
I'm a young rapper. Take my music on my account if you like it, don't hesitate to love and share
Joyner Lucas is so underrated it’s saddening. Very few rappers actually make songs like this that have a message. Doesn’t have to always be about flexing, money, and woman.
An entire entourage of backpack rappers would like to know your location
This is the realest comment ever most Joyner fans that been fans been saying they didn't like evolution but this song I think was the best one from the album I can kinda relate with the fans saying they didn't like this album just isn't the type of hip hop I like many the beats are why but I gave ever track a listen cause Joyner is my cousin and I'll always support him and I don't have to like every song he makes but I still support his music
Crazy some folks call him corny im like how sway??
@Jesse LoTempio i feel he is cuz its bs that gets praised but he rising fast hopefully mfs wake up but not counting on it
@@johnhenry3773 don't worry his next album is gonna be more of his regular style stuff so alot of fast rapping with story telling so anyone who wasn't so found of this style on this album they'll be happy with his next one
A life without a father is hard, I don’t know why a father would just leave their child knowing there will be another man raising his child. Seeing Joyner be an actual father to his child is golden bruh🕊
This kids 14 and Joyner is his inspiration. ruclips.net/video/XFtOSmm6U1k/видео.html
Maybe his mother frustrated the father and the pops thought he was better off without the disrespect. We never hear the father's part
yea, Joyner apparently didn't have a mother either.....seeing he was in a foster home. Why wasn't she being a mother to her kid?

The biggest fight in a man's life is to fill the VOID of FATHERLESSNESS
Our fathers are our model of god. If dad bailed what's that say about god
@@josephmcdonald7490 "Its possible god didnt it want you, in all actuality god probably hates.
Fuck god, fuck redemption, we don't need him."
Thank you for that comment Tyler durden.
Dam
Agreed
My Dad had a father that was just like this... He never gave a shit about my Dad, about what was going on in his life - and had no interest about how he was ever doing. My Dad told me once that he'd cry himself to sleep at night because of how much he wanted his Dad to be in his life... The rejection of his father wounded him in a way that he never really fully healed from.... And what gets me the most, is that even though my Dad never knew how a good father should be - he was the best Father that I could have ever hoped to have had. I never had to doubt for a second how much he loved me, he showed up to every single thing that mattered - and even to all the stupid stuff that didn't matter. The values, character, and principals that he instilled in me are what shaped me into the person I am today, and they are what keeps his memory and honor alive... Even if it's only in my heart.
Every child deserves to have the type of father that I was so tremendously blessed to have. If I could just say to all the fathers (and future fathers) out there.... Please don't ever think for a moment that the role you have in your children's lives could ever be expendable or replaceable. The outcome of your children's lives will forever be impacted by the direct involvement YOU have or don't have. If you haven't been the father that you know you could and should have been, it is NEVER too late to do whatever you can to try to make up for lost time... Even if your child is in their 40's, it is never too late to reach out to see if you can repair what you might have considered irreparable.
In loving memory of my beloved Father,
Msgt. Colin Broussard USMC Retired, Vietnam Veteran
Thanks for sharing your story. 💯
💕❤💗
This is the dad ill be
It’s always the people who didn’t have the best parents that turn out to be the best parents. Because they don’t want their kids to go through what they went through.
I have the kind of father who was absent for most of my life and then came back... but he still doesn’t try. He’s just there, he’s an inconvenience tbh. And he doesn’t understand how much of a mental toll him coming back into my life takes on me... I’d rather have no father than have the father I have now, because there’d be no difference tbh
💯, I had a very shitty childhood, care system from 6 years old, grew up in rough areas etc. I've got a 5 year old daughter and everyone tells me how amazing I am at being a parent, take her places every time I get her for the day, that I travel through whatever the weather to get her even if its for an hour or whatnot, spend the very last of my money on her, the truth is, I'm not her hero, she's my hero, without her I'd be dead cos of depression when my mum died, I still fight them dark thoughts but as soon as I see my little girls smile, if it's been a hard week, that week instantly gets forgot about. I'm giving my daughter everything I never had, a much better start in life and a lot of amazing memories for her to cherish in the future 💝

I've been listening to Joyner for years and has been one of my all time favorite rappers. I first heard I'm Sorry and I got chills and tears. This song gave me chills too. Looks like I need to buy some Joyner albums, damn.
Everyone who grew up without a father felt this…keep your head up kings

My father was in Prison the majority of my youth, I looked up to him and wanted to be a "Gangster" and go to Prison just like him. I was always arguing with my mom and blaming everything on her. I never really understood how strong my Mother was until I became a parent myself. Thanks to him, I know the man I would never become.

This song makes me wanna be a better father to my kids. Not that I'm not a good father, but, a better father.
Real talk as it should. there is no peak no top of the mountain when it come to being a father.
@@jameshoffman9189 Ain't no mountain high, ain't no valley low, ain't no river wiiiiide enough baby....
If you worry about being a bad father, you probably aren’t one. Think about my guy. Would a bad father be concerned about being a bad father?
@@R-H-B felt. It keeps me up at night wondering if I’m a good enough dad and how I can do better tomorrow. I wonder if I don’t wake will she know she was my world my superhero just want her to know I love her

Makes me kinda angry that Joyner isn’t as recognized as he SHOULD be.
Makes 2 man
Man the real gems of this world just aren't to be shown...but found.
What does this comment t mean anyways ,u do recognize him don't u .... so what are u talking about ,who needs him to be super commercial as long as his message goes through .
@@brookzerai615 my comment is self explanatory. Your question is redundant. Joyner said In ‘lucky you’ , “all my life I want a Grammy but I’ll prolly never get it”. He DESERVES that Grammy more than some of these artists out there getting them.

This man isn't a rapper, he's an artist.
Joyner lucas goes in soo hard on this right here! Only reason he is getting more hits is cuz he is just watching that short on my channel explaining how all these rappers out here be blowing up so big
Bro, Joyner is a fucking god send for hip hop. He really came through for new hip hop and killed it.
broo he said i worship the devil and sold my soul to copper pool
The first song I listened to by Joyner was “Happy Birthday”. I cut it off after only hearing the first two verses. I wanted to hate him, I really wanted to just keep moving like he was a blip on the radar, but I came back and finished the song and I smiled because of the story and the plot twist behind it. This song right here brought tears to my eyes, so Joyner, if you see this, know that we’re standing with you. The men that didn’t have nobody growing up, the ones who had to figure it out ourselves for everybody else. I’m happy you’re alive, I’m happy you exist, I’m happy that you’re one of the few artists I can look up and relate to. Don’t ever stop being you man, don’t ever stop being real.
Yo, I don't know what it is, but something about " the ones who had to figure it out ourselves for everybody else " hit hard man. Brought a tear to my eye for whatever reason

Smh...As a mom who raised em alone it was a pain that no matter what i did or how hard i worked & provided..i could never fix for them. Im grateful they both are strong, intelligent, loving, hard working Men today & even more amazing fathers. So they broke the chain..wouldnt allow history due to their scars repeat itself.

Why did this make me cry and help me heal?!!
The hardest thing a boy can do is teach himself how to be a man when his father isn't around because a mother can only do so much.
yes sir, currently going through it. have a great life Mr krowley
💯
The biggest chip a shoulder could have!!
Facts! Step dad's are great, but nothing compares to having your real father.
I agree it's hard especially having kids at a young age
The thing Joyner gets the most respect from me for is the richness of his storytelling. It is deep, but succinct allowing for anyone to jive with it, but also deeply relatable to those with similar stories.
He's healing his brokenness in every line here. Legend!
There’s a reason Joyner is in my top 5 !!! Bro you the goat.
"Your father died when you was young, I think that made a scar
I started thinkin' maybe that's why you the way you are (nah) " I'ma raise the bar...
My dad saw my grandfather blast a dude in the chest with a shotgun he was then deported to Mexico served like 20 to 30 in a cell there every once in a blue moon he would call my dad or his brothers asking for help with cartel problems he has over there. I never met the guy but jesus was he something for my imagination
[Chorus: Elijah James]
In sweet dreams, I kid myself
Have your love for good
I really had hoped you'd stay
But like the river, you just come and go
And these things, they comfort me
When my mind's on you
And I feel you comfort me
But like the river, it just comes and goes
[Verse 1: Joyner Lucas]
I used to think that you was Superman when I was younger (Yeah)
Findin' comfort in your voice when I was down and under
Put you on a pedestal and now I kinda wonder if that made sense
‘Cause I'm convinced you showed a lot of colors (Yeah)
All them nights I was alone, I hid inside thе covers
Used to argue with my moms whеnever I was stubborn (Facts)
I never warmed up to the idea of a step-dad because he wasn't you
And you and him ain't even like each other (Word)
Used to bring me ‘round your girlfriends as I recall
I thought one or two was cool, but I ain't like ‘em all
‘Cause all you ever did was argue ‘bout who's right or wrong
And you ain't have no job, so you would sit at home and light a bong (Yeah)
Used to crave for your attention, but I never got it
And everything you said we'd do is just another promise
You had dreams of bein' famous and I never doubted
But I started rhymin' to impress you, if we bein' honest (Facts)
But we can have some bondin' time and maybe pow-wow
A father/son relationship that we can smile ‘bout
At time's you got abusive and I had to bow down
Or keep on makin' music to try and compete with Bow Wow
Your father died when you was young, I think that made a scar
I started thinkin' maybe that's why you the way you are (Nah)
End of the day, no excuse for how you played your part
Told myself when I became a father, I'ma raise the bar (Word)
We had a lot of fallin' outs and didn't talk for years
And all them birthdays and holidays got awfully weird
You threw me in a foster home and I was brought to tears
Livin' with some strangers, feelin' anxious, I was lost and scared (Yeah)
[Refrain: Joyner Lucas]
And now I'm starin' at the river tryna get across
And all I see is apparitions of what never was
And everything I used to wish for is dead and lost
And if I never see your ass again, I'll be better off
I'll be better off (Yeah)
[Chorus: Elijah James & Joyner Lucas]
You are so negative (Uh)
And you say you know
But you know a goddamn thing
Like the river, you just run and go
You say you could do good
And better you know
But you tried no goddamn thing
Like the river, I'ma run from you
[Verse 2: Joyner Lucas]
I told myself I wouldn't write a song, but fuck it, I did
Oftentimes, I sit and wonder if it's somethin' I did
Or maybe I was immature, but is it somethin' I said?
I can't help but feel the feelin' that there's somethin' I missed
I told you somethin' happened to me and you ain't protect me (Yeah)
You tried to say you ain't believe me as you disrespect me (Facts)
And plus, you never had my back, in fact, you may resent me in a way
‘Cause everythin' I say, you try to use against me (Word)
And I never knew your other kids, but I knew of ‘em (True)
I'm not really sure if I like ‘em, but I do love ‘em (Do)
Shit, I don't even think you knew but just a few of ‘em
‘Cause all your baby mothers stayed away to keep you from ‘em (Word)
You probably out fillin' they heads with shit that's not the truth
You probably told ‘em that I switched up when I got some loot (Uh)
You probably told ‘em that I'm greedy and I'm not so cool
That I worship the devil and I sold my soul to cop a pool (Yeah)
I worked my ass off to get rich, let's not confuse
I sacrificed my whole twenties just so I can move (True)
While everybody else was chillin', hangin' out with crews
I was writin' a plan to finally win while tryin' not to lose (True)
I still remember signin' my deal and you got hella funny
And at that time, you probably figured I had hella money (Yeah)
But I only got a small advance, so I ain't even get a chance to hold you down
‘Cause then you started gettin' jealous of me
But I'm worth a couple million now, I turned out fine (Yeah)
I copped my moms a big crib and went and got mine
An indoor pool with a house made and I'm not lyin' (Nope)
A happy son who loves his dad, it's about time (Yeah)
[Refrain: Joyner Lucas]
But I'm still starin' at the river tryna get across
And all I see is apparitions of what never was
And everything I used to wish for is dead and lost
And if I never see your ass again, then I'll be better off
Nigga I'll be better off
[Bridge: Elijah James]
Karma comes back and it's co-co-comin' (Co-co-comin')
Treatin' me bad and I'm ru-ru-runnin' (Ru-ru-runnin')
Karma comes back and it's co-co-comin' (Co-co-comin')
Treatin' me bad, I'm ru-ru-runnin' (Ru-ru-runnin')
[Outro: Joyner Lucas]
And congratulations, nigga, you won
And all the love you never gave me, I can give to my son
Eternal love to my child, we'll forever be one
Thanks to you, I know the man that I would never become
Never become
Thx bro!!

This song, for guys like me with a deadbeat for a pops is a bright light in an otherwise dark space. Thank you Joyner! Thank you for being so raw and relatable with your struggles.
" Congratulations, ... you won! And all the love you never gave to me I can give to my son. Eternal love to my child, we'll forever be one! Thanks to you I know the man I will never become"
Speaks to my soul about my father...
If being underated was a crime , Joyner has got a fuckin life sentence
The fact that em made a song with him shows us how special he really is...
100 life sentences
If ya know u know. He's not underated by his peers
lol same with this comment XD
its all about what type of audience you want to entertain and impress. He chose to be technical and real to hiphop. Thus the feature with Eminem
This is the definition of putting my emotion to the pen 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
At 50 years old I consider myself from the first generation of HIP-HOP. And I’m telling you right now you are one of the greatest storytellers to ever grace a mic! Thanks for bringing HIP-HOP back to it’s TRUE form of storytelling.
This hit me like a truck. It's gratifying to me your son is in your life and you love him like you do. You're an inspiring man, Joyner. Music that makes a person and look inward and reflect, that's profound in a way the world needs now and always.
If joyner dont work with this dude ima really be pissed ruclips.net/video/a1VfycbMoSw/видео.html

I am literally bawling my eyes out this song resonates with my life so fucking much. You are a fucking genius
Rap = Rythm and Poetry.
That's what Joyner drops every single time.
joyner one of a rare breed in this hip hop shit. this man talks real shit in his songs. half these rappers can barely speak let alone tell a story through their song lyrics joyner deserve so much respect

That kid hugging a pillow breaks my heart to see man
Thats deep, i used to hug myself while crying coz no 1 around to hug me...so i know
Joyner looks like he should be in the next "Bad Boys" movie with Will Smith!
@R3N I dont know exactly how long, but I was already subscribed to him for quite a while when he dropped "I'm not Racist", and I remember saying that this was the song that would make him blow up. I was literally sitting in my truck on lunch break when that song dropped and immediately listened to it. Since then he's blown up!!
@@11851nick sure.... got the name of the song wrong g
Facts!
@@pimheijmans7317 The name of the song is "I'm not racist" Lol
@@pimheijmans7317 what do mean dude, thats the name of the song
This really hits hard, I'm not even sure if i'm listening to the song or the song's listening to me.
😂😂😂😂😂🦾🦾
Wtf Joyner even got hit men listening to this song
It's life my guy
hits the hardest was " Thanks to you I know the man I will never become "
'Thanx to you I know the man that I would never become' gosh this man knows how powerful words are...lyrical genius.. #Joynerlucas
Shout out to Elijah James who made this song even more beautiful ♥️
Dont laugh

Shout out to all the fathers who stayed💯

@@YogibearXXL Nope my dad stayed, and I stayed for my kids too
Not mine..
@@YogibearXXL?
Amen to that
I don't know what the haters are talking about... I feel like the rap game has elevated
Best song off the new album. Joyner giving his son all the love his father never could best line ever
I made a diss track on black womeb lol
Zim Zimma is also very gooooood
Everyone subscribe to meee
very well made song and how he is willing to let us fans know about his past with his dad.
Shit made me teary eyed
This shit hit different, my pops was never around and blamed me as an adult for not having a father son relationship, you can't help but wonder sometimes, why didn't they want me. Why didn't you step up and take care of my mom. I was so undesirable to you that you felt better off without me? Whack as fuck bruh! I feel this song and it's probably one of joyners best 💯 thanks for putting in prospective for those who don't have the words 🙏
These new age rappers can't hold a candle to storytelling Joyner's flame
Joyner is the best by far
This kids 14 and Joyner is his inspiration. ruclips.net/video/XFtOSmm6U1k/видео.html
Deep!!
This has me in tears. The video. The song all of it.
Thank you for sharing your pain with us.
You're not alone. We suffer together, we survive together. We rise together 🫶🫶
Heat after heat this man drops. There's a reason why Em supports him yall pay attention!
Yep.
I wanna thank you my man, I struggle with ADHD so fucking bad so when you dropped that joint I was in love with it cause I could feel it to a T. I grew up with my dad in and out and when he was in, he was always drunk as fuck and would not give me a single second of his day to see what I was working on or interested in. So when you dropped this video and I connected to it again I knew you were something special and I wasnt alone in this world. So again Joyner, thank you for saying the words that I wanna say in your own way where I can connect.
I feel you on the ADHD part brother. It has recently felt overwhelming and harder to work with. But I just found a book that has better helped me understand ADHD and use it as a tool. The book is called “The ADHD Advantage” by Dale Archer, MD. Lots of good info and tips to use it vs fight it. Hope this helps man. Have a good one.
Yoh this music video is something else😭
He had to heal himself before he made the song. Respect

These are the types of rappers you can look upto in real life, not the ones who promotes drugs n shit and negativity.

🤞
He has songs where he promotes drugs😂
Yes he is my favorite
@@rsl3172 he doesn't promote it he talks about it, and how he doesn't need it and stuff
Zim Zimma is for concerts, this song is for laying awake in your room at 3AM
Exactly!
@lilmil why
Thats weirdly accurate because in my country its 3am and i just finish watching this
@Ryan Saucier so why u promoting?

Wow!!! This song touched me to my core. I’m a mother of a son and grandsons that feel the words of this song. Blessings to you and your Family. All Praises to the Most High 💕
Joyner Lucas = Art
Joyner lucas, if you read this you should know youre one of the reasons i overcame depression and didnt commit suicide. In my world youre the best rapper alive and you inspire me to go harder even though i have lost everything. Thank you for your music
Just keep coming back to this one, haven't heard another song like it...
I felt every moment. The way you present life ‘expressions’…is always cathartic. Always. You take it all in, From all…..and then create. Beautiful. Thank you.
Exactly. I didn't know the words!!!
Another brilliant gem from JL! His presence just demands that the rest of these rappers level UP!!
One of the saddest but most spot on reputation of how it is growing up if you've had a challenging and or crazy upbringing
You can't hate Joyner, he's just incredible
This kids 14 and Joyner is his inspiration. ruclips.net/video/XFtOSmm6U1k/видео.html
This is like Joyner's version of Eminem's "leaving heaven"
This kids 14 and Joyner is his inspiration. ruclips.net/video/XFtOSmm6U1k/видео.html
Nah not rly
god....does someone need to bring up Eminem in any rap video ever...Im white and the rest of you are embarassing..
The choreography is insane man
I made a diss track on black women lol
I'm here every FATHER'S DAY. Happy Father's Day Daddy. RIP💔
Why is there dislikes guess that’s the ones who couldn’t see cuz they had tears in there eyes
They thought it was the download button XD
They prolli were confused i agree lol 😆
Tory Lanez fans (😂)? People still bitter about the old Logic mini-beef? They went to click so fast that they missed? All the mumble rappers who's songs Joyner improved?
FACTS
They are the bad fathers 🤷
Joyner Lucas never disappoints. He's a real star
This generation will never appreciate the realest when they see one Joyner u a inspiration big dawg from South West Africa 💕💯
