💯
I spent 28 years in the United States Air Force living all over the world while serving this country. I retired officially 2011. The same year my estranged baby brother called me to them he had terminal cancer and he place to live go before his final journey home. He made this comment standing at my front door with his bags in the car after driving from South Carolina to Huntsville Alabama. I was raised family over everything but God so I told him he could stay with me after talking with my wife. I watched God give me a year to spend with him as slowly destroyed his body until there was no more. He died 2012 about one week after my birthday. I was just returning from more than 12 plus years of war as fought on several fronts in the War on Terrorism. The loss of my brother was so painful because I finally felt since I was back home we had years to make up for the time lost. I was reminded of Stevie's song "These Three Words!" Life can come at you so hard sometimes until it takes away your equilibrium! Never ever forget to tell those you love that you love them despite whatever is ongoing!
I COULD IN SAME BUT DIDN'T WAYS BEING GOING THROUGH THE SAME THING AND JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW YOU AIN'T NEVER ALONE BROTHER
Wow!
That hook at the end... my goodness... give this man his Grammy right now!!
Yes and they NEED to do it ASAP!!!
Yesssss!!! A. Lynette. That ending is "off the chain". He makes you feel that thang honey.
🔥🔥🙌🏽
YASSSSS! I can't get over it.
My favorite part of the song.
It’s just something about real instruments, real 🎶 🎵 🎼 touches the soul
Aaaamen. 🙏❤❤
Real music 🎶
Ok💛
Only...
Bettye Simmons, EXACTLY MY BEAUTIFUL BLACK QUEEN😀😘👌🏾👍🏾👊🏾✊🏾☝️🏾💪🏾👏🏾✌️🏾💯📚
This song may be about addiction, but it also speaks on burdens on our shoulders.
You are so very true this song means alot to me because what I am ready to do on ours Spicy Lemon Pepper Sweet Bbq sauces.Becauses I truly do know onces I put it all in it going to be all or nothing it's going to be a big Burton on my shoulder.
@@williemason4590 you mean burden lol
My favorite artist of all time do you hear me?
So true
I FELT THIS SONG DEEP DOWN INSIDE LIKE IT WAS A PERSONAL SONG JUST FOR❤❤❤❤❤
One of my sons died from fentanyl and this song helped me to understand him and his addiction. I would be driving and praying for my son and this would come in the radio every time. Great talent sir and very underrated!
I love that no one sounds like him. He has a unique recognizable voice
peanut smasher agreed! Same reason I love Stokely from MintCondition as well. I believe they sound a lot alike
Aiysha Harris they do
Stokely sounds a lot like him .. or vice versa.. but thats about it
Look up an artist named Rahsaan Patterson.His music is similar
i can tell that Jeremih looks up to Raphael. they have similar vocal tones to me.
Can we please ascribe the word 'genius' to those who truly are? This man is it 🔥🙏🏾
Derek Felton Definitely. This brotha's talent is a gift from Creator God.
@@lionelkennedy1394 absolutely 💯
Derek Felton, I Totally Agree With You Whole Heartedly!!!!!!! MY BROTHER👌🏾👍🏾👊🏾✊🏾☝️🏾💪🏾👏🏾✌️🏾💯📚
@@terrenceransom912 🙏🏾🙏🏾💯💯
Derek Felton Yeeessssss
Come on yall 1 million views for Raphael
Praying for anyone overcoming any kind of loss, grief, addictions, whatever is ailing and lingering in the heart.
This song is like getting a phone call from an old friend. I missed you, Saadiq!🌹
Isley Brothers vibe! Keep it coming.
Ingrid Bynes yes!!!!
I LUV THAT💕🎶💕
Yaaaaaazzzz! Isley on fleek.
Footsteps In The Dark.
He's a spirit keep fighting Raphael love you
Ever since I discovered this track , it's been on repeat ❤️💯
Yesss!!
Same here! It's been ringing in my ears for a few days now lol
Schatez Lady me too
Now.....
About to listen to it now😁just from reading the comments🍷🍷
This song is so sad and so beautiful at the same time.
Yes just awfully painful to listen and if you ever watched someone struggle with addiction then you know how powerless and painful they feel.
& So Real💯
Dam I just seeing this video for the first time wow many of us suffer or know someone that suffers.
I met him once and you couldn’t meet a nicer and more genuine person.
Yessss he's back real music can't wait to hear the whole album 😃🎧🎵🎶🎤💗💖💕
You said it my sis !! Legendary return for this bro i been listening since 90
The album will be dope asf. You already know!
Me2
Ikr
Ok I'm happy to hear his🎶he writes too he's been active behind the scenes and one I like is Rick Ross ft RS Apple of my eye❤💕💕💕
Never clicked so fast on a video in my whole life! No regrets. Thanks Saadiq for sharing your gift with the world.
Yo I did the same 😁😁 Saadiq talented brother 🎤🎵🎶
Same here, lol🙋🏾♀️
Jonathan Wilson Right I almost lost it and dropped my phone 😊
How Prophetic this song hits right in the middle of COVID when God literally shut the world down.. and we lost family.. jobs..money.. love.. etc.. What are we being called to do in this heavy moment?
This man is absolutely talented. They be sleeping on him foreal. He's been in the game a long time. Biggups Raphael!!
Underappreciated.
He started off with prince and has written for several artists. He’s good 😊
I Love It! I'm feeling that Isley Bros guitar tease. 💕💕💕💕💕
hell yeah slick with it lol
It kinda sounds like it could be an Isley Brothers song. Raphael Saadiq has done it again...
💯💯💯🎸🎹
Lovely Lana yessss
Another banger from Saadiq!
This song is so spiritually prolific..
You can hear the words
Adrianna Thomas well said. It goes they my souls truly. What he sings about is his brothers Doug addiction
I can totally feel it I. The song.. the longer to let go a something that pulling u in but you cant. Powerful song. Sympathize for all those caught in hooks of addiction
Yes it is, so much truth in this song.
TheDucciano it means that's how I feel about it sweetie
TheDucciano feel how u want. How do take issue with other peoples' perspective/ interpretation of a song? Lol hilarious. The young lady named adriana Thomas made the statement. She is entitled to how she feels. Be a mor a positive person
This is a real Masterpiece from Raphael
Who could dislike this? I love this song ❤️
I grew up of Tony Toni tone especially really got rough in Chicago, I did my dirt but I was moved to Alabama about this song, Birmingham AL
On me
same
smooth t Thank you so much
smooth t jawlehshields@gmail.com😉
One dislike that person don't know real music 💕
Exactly!
Must be a lame.
Probably one of these "musicians" that only presses buttons...SMDH!
They better learn. This is it
Real Grown Folks Music
This man is so underrated!!! He’s a genius and definitely deserves to be celebrated more‼️‼️‼️
Drug addiction, gambling addiction, sex addiction... all of them are captured here. So beautiful, sad, true and refreshing at the same time. I absolutely love this song. I know Saadiq's voice anywhere. I knew it was him the 1st time I heard this on the radio a while ago. You could never mistake him or Stokley from MC
Yes!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
No addiction is easy to give up.
That BASELINE is BANGGIN'! 😎👌🏾
Champagne Hec .. Saadiq hooks the bassline up like no other. Legendary.
its very isleysss!
@@lifeisthedash I thought the same thing!
Screwing music
Damn he’s done it again. So smooth.

Baby Doll Was My Jam!!!! 😎
This is an amazing emotionally charged song into the struggle of addiction for the addicted and loved ones. I have been drug free for 20 years; this jam touched my heart.

Favorite bands: EWF, Mint Condition, Toni, Tone, Tony!
This song keeps calling me
Yess...definetly off the charts... Raphael Saadiq is a musical genius❤
Sir Saadiq your music is pure joy and love. Thank you to share.
LOve that guitar solo. reminds me of Isley brothers concert in the summer when everything is new and you just met that somebody. ;-D
Cassandra Diamond Lavender yup
Raphael Saadiq deserves to be recognized for his R&B and Hip Hop Contributions
Modern day "Footsteps In the Dark." Jammin' track!
OMG MOST Definitely a Lil bit of Isley vibe🎸
I get that vibe too
Footsteps in the dark meet diamonds and Pearl
yup!!!!!!
Why is your voice so freaking amazing? ❤
Hi m.ruclips.net/video/aL6C8NNOOMc/видео.html
He still doing it and I hope we got another 30+ years out of him. His music is a gift.
I can't wait for this album to drop. It's talking about substance abuse and I think we as a society need this type of music now more than ever. Especially with all the drug abuse going on.
addiction in general...he mentioned gambling addiction as well
I didn’t hear that. I love it super dope
I think it was dedicated to his brother who died due to a overdose.
Love this song. Reminds me of my brother who was addicted to dog racing.
@@tonyasanders9652 oh wow, didnt know that😥
Dear Raphael,
DON'T LET ERNIE ISLEY LEAVE THIS EARTH BEFORE YOU CUT A SONG WITH HIM!!!!!
Sincerely yours,
Fans EVERYWHERE
that guitar- right
It's kinda Footsteps in the Dark but in another key. Maybe it's just the chord progression.
Rob Bacon on the solo
@@robertmoss4210 look up hope you feel better love,has a killer solo by ernie
THATS HIS KEY 👏🏾!!!
Need that INSTANT VINTAGE Pt.2!!!
Happy to see I'm not the only one who's borderline hated every solo thing he's done since. This song gives me hope for that Instant Vintage vibe
Gawd yes!
Indeed!!!
I'M JUST GLAD HE STILL WITH US... CONTINUING HIS LEGACY... NEVER LEAVE RAP✊
Saadiq has done it again like duh, need I say more? Love that Isley brother feel/sound tho ❣️❣️❣️
Mary Joe you’re the only other person besides myself who can hear that Ernie Isley-like guitar
@@DuckDaPhillyFan I would love to see a live performance and Ernie comes out doing his thang to this song. I bet the crowd would go wild🤩😍😍🤗😘.
That's that Rob Bacon yall
@@DuckDaPhillyFan Rob Bacon is nice for years now
YES!!!🤗🌞 Yet another great sound. Raphael you are a man of great music a rhythmical genius.
This has to be the new summer BBQ Jam. I will be playing it at my family cookout.
Jamie Roberson
Danielle Saffell
How? You must don’t know that this song is about DRUG ADDICTION and GAMBLING ADDICTION. Its not about LOVE 🤷♂️ So how could it be about BBQ. He explained this in an interview.
@@1handsmoke565 You can get the message and still enjoy the song. It may have a serious message but it's still an upbeat song.
badandy8888
I NEVER stated that you couldn’t ENJOY the SONG. I was referring this to BBQ MUSIC 🤷♂️
SHUT UP!!
Love When A Artist Can Create A Monumental Vibe In Time, That Will Last A Lifetime! 💕
😢😔❤️🙏🏽Praying for those who been through it and Shots out to the Over-comers!!!
The climate of music needed this foreal. This song is so pure and could be a soundtrack to life.
I'm so happy right now. He is awesome. I can't wait to hear new album August 23!!!!
Seeing the Genius in concert in LA
I’m so glad R&B is on a come back
Raphael , Jacquees, Pink sweats, Kota the friend, Jamarro Rock My Baby
If this the way R&B in 2020 starting out then we may be in good shape!
#ifeellikesteppin
The something that keeps calling is that Lucy Pearl 2nd album with Dawn Robinson and Ali Shaheed
Word!
That would be the hotness! I was jamming to that jaunt at the gym just a few weeks ago. It still hits!
Miss Foxx good one..lmao. I think he’s over that though..but 😆
I wish too but it will probaby never happen because Dawn is too fickle.
@@Getitgirl816 Sadly, this is true. I honestly believe she has some issues...
Hear that "Kissing You" influence by Total he produced. Dope.
My mind is blown right now! Had no idea he produced that. And I do hear it at the breakdown. Love it.
Yes especially toward the end.
Didn't know he produced that
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssss!!!
Yo, I didn't know he produced that either. WOW!!!!
This man right here, has done it again. Fantastic track, with outstanding guitar work. Real music right here youngsters.
This feel like a throwback song, lyrics and instruments so smooth
The
Best
Never been so hype for an album. Solange is cool..sweet. So are other artists he produces for. But there is NOTHING like the genius of a real Raphael Saadiq album!!!! Flew here from ig the second i heard it!💥💥💥 The guitar is crazy fire. So hope he brings tour to Philly. He's the whole album buy kinda artists. We can eat for years off his art.
Alfia Bramwell Totally Agree
Bruh y’all don’t understand how great this song is like seriously, 2019 really needed this song. Everyone who’s ever loved anyone needed this song. Welcome back raph!
Reminds me of the Isley's Foot Steps in the dark, and El Debarge in the abstract sense.
Absolutely love it.
Yes I heard this song on the radio fell in love instantly with it and then found it was Raphael Saadiq. I seen in concert and lawd an awesome performance. I want to see him perform live again. Yes the guitar solo yes.....
Saw him recently in Detroit!
Heard a snippet on his IG last night...went to sleep, woke up, headed straight here to listen to the whole song.😍😍
Same 🤣👍🏿👍🏿
I been playing this over and over
Same and it's what we've been waiting for ❤️
Ashlee Baldwin yes, gawd!!
My fave song for Summer 2019!
We gonna have to share this song sis. 😊
Sure was mines too
Something keeps calling me
I feel the burdens on me
Something keeps calling me
This is so heavy for me
You might say I can never love again
Well you might be right, at least tonight
My friends say I can never pull it together
Well they might be right, at least tonight
My kids say I'll never come home again
And I know they're right, at least tonight
If I fail, my whole life goes to hell
And it don't seem right, I need help tonight
Something keeps calling me
I feel the burdens on me
Something keeps calling me
This is so heavy for me
My wife says I'll never have money again
And she might be right, I lost tonight
My heart says I can get it all again
And I hope I'm right, but not tonight
The priest said, "You're gonna lose family"
And he might be right, at least tonight
My mind says, "You should give it up today"
Sounds awesome, right? But not tonight
Something keeps calling me
I feel the burdens on me
Something keeps calling me
This is so heavy for me
Something keeps calling me
I feel the burdens on me
Something keeps calling me
This is so heavy for me
This is forever
(This is so heavy on me)
I'm never, ever turning back
(This is so heavy on me)
I'm never
(This is so heavy on me)
So heavy on me
I'm never
Omg thank u so much!!!!
I started writing the lyrics down. Thank you so much!!!
This song is a classic
Thank you for the words. Can't stop singing this.
Love and Peace to all that have overcome addiction.
To all that are still struggling, don't quit trying. You can do it. You have it in you. Love stands with you.✨
Nice riding in the car tune. . . especially, on a warm and breezy summer night. 🖤 💎
Totally
Yes I concur!! Just keep going
When you can't say a word, you just bop your head, pat your foot and wave your hand......REAL MUSIC LIVES!!!
My God, the BEAT just POUNCES, and that guitar moves something within your soul, and then here he comes with the WORDS; words that are not easy, fun, nor pleasant but Real LIFE & brutal. I have so much respect for Raphael because he has never been anything other than himself and he has never put any music out here which does not represent who he is & what he feels as a Black male, as a human being, an individual; he's stayed true since the very beginning whether singing with others or solo. And he's stayed Real & POSITIVE, never DEGRADING, clownish, nor compromising . This song, the entire CD, is so intimate & vulnerable; as someone with a family history of addictions with both my mom & late dad being addicts, and also seeing friends, family, neighbors, in the hood, on my block, literally OD'ing, I got mad props for Mr. Saadiq. He is still SO VERY UNDERRATED but those of us who have been constant, loyal & true fans following him on his journey thru the decades have always realized how remarkably gifted this TRUE ARTIST really is and always will be. Much Luv from Baltimore!
Love this song keeping r&b alive
Right timing. Right place. Right mood. Right message. Right music! 🙏 love light and continued harmony to Raphael Saadiq for making great music!
I grew up on his music and had a crush on this beautiful man. He is a musical God. 2019 I'm still playing Raphael and TTT
I've followed this man since the days of 3T and he's still going strong! I believe his music and contributions will stand the test of time.
He's telling the soul storyline
I'm so happy that your back
Likewise!
You're*
tlig shut up!

I love you Raphael. Please don't ever change your style. You are heaven sent. Real R&B heads appreciate your beautiful gift. Thank you ❤️
This 'ish is SICK
I heard this last week and had to play it over a few times...
And the guitar riff toward then end made me follow up with Total's "Kissing You"
THANK YOU... FOR MY HALF TIME.
I didn’t realize how much I’ve missed his voice. Very unique. Have loved him for years 💕💞
Refreshing, dope, and makes me miss real r&b
Mr. Raphael Sasdiq never disappoints. I've on him and I'm 32. He's amazing.
This is real music youngins
