This song makes me feel both nostalgic and depressed at the same time.
The feeling of nostalgia is often described as the cognitive dissonance between happiness and sadness. Part of you remembers the times of happiness, is thankful for it, while the other part of you knows that not only can you not go back, but things will never be the same again
Dman to meloncholy
james d me too man
james d I like that feeling tho
0alejandroellis0 its weird how nostalgia is such an amazing feeling isnt it?
3 Grammies I can't believe it so proud of you and your journey 🙏🏼
SkullGaming he was nominated for 7
Star Sitsu HE SHOULD OF WON ALL OF THEM TOO
You spoke for all of us.
Every grammy lost was for content that he only featured in :)
2 Grammys actually
May 2024 who’s still listening? 👀❤️
Me
Same
I
Listening to this now and being older makes that last verse feel surreal.
How so?
FACTS
Odeeeeee
My honor to be your 200th like.
How many of us forgot how to fly?
6 years❤
Chance the Singer
I think the video is about maturity. Chance is seen at the beginning of the video with a puppet. Puppets are almost always used to entertain children. Look at Chance's face whenever he's singing with the puppet. He looks pretty uncomfortable right? He's constantly giving the cameraman/director looks and shaking his head. Basically saying "nigga I'm to old for this shit". Another thing you'll notice is the aspect ratio and quality of the video. It's nearly identical to old 90's televisions. This would imply that Chance is somehow stuck in his past. As far as his maturity goes; he's still a child.
At 2:44 snow begins to fall on the set. Snow in film generally represents a new beginning/death. He then gets up from the Piano and gets ready for the close up. However, at 3:20 he once again shakes his head and decides to walk of the set.
At 3:25 the quality suddenly changes to one that is up to the standards of current technology. This combined with the snow, would imply that the old Chance is dead/gone. He is a new and changed person ready to own up to his responsibilities and raise his daughter. I think this is what the whole coloring book album was trying to imply.
Also, you gay and lame af for reading all this
ThE cRiMinAL bLacK it's about growing up
maturity = growing up
lmao my bad it was late at night and i didnt read through all of it
This mane made me read a great review just to feel like shit 😂
The end lmao
Who listening in 2024
Me
Me two
Present
Me, right now 😉
When did we grow up?
This is one of those songs that keeps me going. I was at my lowest point 3 years ago I hit rock bottom, I ended up going to jail doing a total of 22 months. Got out and completed 7 months of parole. Now here I am sober since April 15 2022, I’m 28 years old now, I finally have my own apartment, I have a good job and I’m living the life that I should have been living years ago, but this song makes me so happy and literally takes the words right out my mouth, I don’t do them same drugs no more. Chance I love you man
Congrats, Bro 💯
Congrats dude ❤
I’m proud of you bro!!! Keep being great and elevating your life
Love to You Brother ❤
Thank you
Chance fans are so chill, like fr, no one here is ever upset or angry, its all good vibes, he should be proud to have such a chill neutral fanbase, what a guy
KMR _ it's because his music is so soothing
KMR _ ❤️
KMR _ Hey Dad 😍
Sam Craig hey grandpa 😍
cause they're all stoners
I really prefer this version over the one on the album. Such a soul feel to it, the emotion is incredible. And the woman's voice is amazing
same!
true, what hits me is the line "where did you go, why did you stay" is much stronger here because 2 people are singing it
Without a doubt, I wish this version was on the album. Every time I'm listening to the album I stop at Same Drugs and pull up youtube quick to get this version.
tru
I agree, Hannah !!:):)
It was your Grammy no cap, This touched my soul my brother, don't leave this style it was yours.
4 years later, if you're watching this, you're a legend.
Shut up
Can you all seriously stop with these comments. They just filter out any interesting ones
My standard for legendary status is so much higher.
You’re poor
Ur everywhere
that shit was deep, everyone when he left was a puppet , even the girl he loved became a puppet, but he is still real, with no strings attached. give this guy a grammy! he deserves the shit!
Black CaucAsians love your name 👌
Black CaucAsians It ain't deep lol it's pretty obvious what it represents. It's mostly weird for the sake of being wierd
Santy Valens yep
Black CaucAsians He's nominated for 7!! Deserves every one!
Big ups to his director Jake Schreier for this too
Window closed...
Wendy got old...
right in the peter pan feels
TourDaWG YOU MUST HAVE LOST YOUR MARBLES
TourDaWG don't forget the happy thoughts ❤️
When did you forget how to fly?
Wow, I didn't even catch the Peter Pan association. God chance is a genius
When did you change
Wendy you've aged
I thought you'd never grow up
I thought you'd neverrr
this version, 5+ years later, is still well above the album version. her vocals unmatched.
rare gacha life user W
@@Kurt-Ford-Jr the app i used is called “character maker” i couldn’t even begin to tell you what gacha is
Watch the live performance of this song he did on The Voice with his team. Insanely good.
Imagine if Mac Miller and chance had made a mixtape together
This comment almost caused instant tears 😢
Dang
😥
I would’ve drowned in my tears. The soul that album would’ve carried 😤
crying
The end gives me fucking chills wow
Seriously Rob Had to keep it together on that ending 👏👏
Seriously Rob please help me reach 100 subs
can someone explain the video and ending please?
I lowkey just go to like Genius.com or some other music/lyric/rap site if I haven't already followed up on the process of the album. From what I found, the lyrics are about an old friend who's followed a different path while also looking back on his own past and the feelings of losing while growing up (Hence the PeterPan references to Wendy)
And the ending references him walking out on this past life/childhood. Leaving a childlike place surrounded by puppets, beautiful lights, falling snow, etc.
lmfao I knew the puppet was gonna sing and I still wasn't ready
this is so accurate
i thought it was for decoration then it started moving a little then I knew it was going to move. I was just waiting for it
DankMemesMeltStealBeams 💀💀💀💀
haha guess you guys understand xD
DankMemesMeltStealBeams lol happened to me im ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️
I saw Chance live in concert with my ex, this was the last song he did. She recently passed away from an overdose and this song 5 years later hits really hard. How hard you ask? Im crying while writing this out......all you need is happy thoughts, right Chance?
Keep fighitin, she would have never wanted to see you in such pain
😢
I’m so sorry , stay strong no matter what
At the end its you against you.
Stay strong brother, live a full life. Go fishing, take the trip, be kind, buy food for the homeless, adopt a stray kitten, write a card to someone who is close to you, go to the party, forget yourself a little - so on day, when you meet her again in heaven, you can tell her all of it.
Sending all my love
"When did you start to forget how to fly" always brings the tears a bit...Incredible song still.
Gets me all the time
yes, i think it's about Peter Pan and all the innocence in our childhood. greetings from berlin
Seen this comment right on que! 😅
Every time! Gotta play it back once I hear that part !
That hat will be legendary soon enough
Jordan Strong already is
Jordan Strong Legend says that he sleeps in his hat :)
+Birdman's Lotion John Legend said that?
And he's in love with his city
Jordan Strong please help me reach 100 subs
This isn't only a rapper.This is an artist
Jocke HoodBrowsah Like Gambino.
Jovany Cervantes Yeah
Jovany Cervantes and Kanye
Jocke HoodBrowsah this comment is totally meaningless
Chance The Wrapper every rapper is an artist, because they all make arr by pretty much every definition. It's not a label you can slap on to shit you like.
It’s the end of 2023, and I can finally say: we don’t do the same drugs no more. Thank you god for deliverance and thank you chance and team for this timeless musical masterpiece 🎉 I’ve loved chance from the start. His music has themed many of my nights, days, and now a forever nostalgic feeling everytime I hear any of his music.
I'm a 62 year old woman who is old school, not into rap. I watch the Voice and wondered who Chance was. Here I am and omg this guy is amazing ❤️
Suzette, I am here tonight because he performed the song on The voice with three of the contestants that had done been eliminated, and that performance was absolutely amazing compared to this video, I hope you got to see it ‼️
love this
I think. My soul. Just cried . :(
Jetlag mine did too to see all these ppl finding this music good just breaks my heart
TEIFLUX iiii
knesia15 but this music is good
Jetlag tru
Jetlag init
Summer friends is going to be insane...
Brian Spinner def my favorite song on the album. that would be awesome if there was a video for it
Man!! I'm waiting on it!!!
don't they already have a video for that?
Most definitely the best song on coloring book. Definitely anticipating the video.
Brian Spinner bro I'm waiting on that
I love when Chance sings "you were always perfect and I was only practice" and the girl makes a skeptical noise to the "you were always perfect" and challenges it by singing "I was only practice" in unison with Chance. Just completely brilliant.
Me too
If you like this kind of narrative tool in songs, there's a song called Dearly Departed by Shakey Graves that does something like this, I'd recommend it.
I wish you could save RUclips comments
Good observation friend👍
Hadn’t consciously noticed in the hundreds of times I’ve listened to this song until your comment. Don’t you miss the days.
Don't forget the happy thoughts
All you need is happy thoughts
The past tense, past bed time
Way back then when everything we read was real
And everything we said rhymed
Wide-eyed kids being kids
Why did you stop?
What did you do to your hair?
Where did you go to end up right back here?
When did you start to forget how to fly?
Don't you color out
Don't you bleed on out, oh
Stay in the line, stay in the line

BEAUTIFUL
My favorite part.
"When did you start to forget how to fly"
Gets me everytime.

Well said.

The beginning of the song is epic
His music is real.
Chance never disappoints.

Eternal Wisdom 😄😄😄😄
Eternal Wisdom DEAD lol

W
Unstated, but perhaps a reference to the "Trinity"...?
Please come back to South Africa. I need a live performance of this song again❤❤❤❤❤❤😭😭
WHY CAN'T WE GET THIS VERSION ON SPOTIFY CHANCE?!!!!
When you watched this 20 times since it dropped, he needs a Grammy like now 🖤✊🏾
Kymani Runcie its coming tommorow aha
Kymani Runcie true the song and music video got me in my feelings 😢😕
He just got a grammy: Best new artist
Teddy Quamina and best rappper or rap album i forgot lol
Kymani Runcie he won a Grammy
Been a big fan since Acid Rap. Crazy how 2015 I used to ask people if they listen to Chance and they always reply "Who is that?" now they finally know. Im glad he is getting the recognition he deserves.
Danielle King RIGHT! I would always tell my cousin to listen to him and ever since Chance 3 came out he listens to him more than I do😂
Danielle King That's exactly how me and my brother and cousins were. 6thgrade I believe 🤔
Danielle King for real tho! lol I used to always play acid rap and one of my best homies told me they never heard of him till Coloring Book. I was like 'Nah you just weren't paying attention' 😂
Danielle King I know I've been here since I saw 10 day on my suggested like a couple of years ago and I was like wtf and then I was like wait this dude isn't famous yet....
Danielle King crazy how everyone claims to be an OG chance fan
life peaked when this came out
THESE LYRICS ALWAYS TAKE ME OUT 🥺:
Don't forget the happy thoughts
All you need is happy thoughts
The past tense, past bed time
Way back then when everything we read was real
And everything we said rhymed
Wide-eyed kids being kids
Why did you stop?
What did you do to your hair?
Where did you go to end up right back here?
When did you start to forget how to fly?
1:51 - “You were always perfect, and l was only practice.”
That line gets me every single time.
like in practice makes perfect. ( i dont understand why it's funny).
@Sherrianne Nicholas It’s not practice makes perfect, Chance is saying how perfect she is and how he was just practice for her. It’s not supposed to be funny it’s just the line that gets in his feels.
When Jay z asked "Do fools listen to music or do you just skim through it" it was for lines like that
Timothy Fitzgerald - nah, people can enjoy an entire song but still like a specific lyric or verse from it. Doesn’t mean you’re skimming, just appreciating the word play.
Allen Iverson Got Me , I would do the infamous Rant but I already Lost my sanity’s, it’s just Time for me to go in motion Fame ain’t worth it being a good person Is Money Don’t Change , My environment And energy Does so I gotta attracts what align It🥴, This World Shady Black Live Matters Racists Still exist
That girl sings like an angel.

"Don't you miss the days, stranger? Don't you miss the days? Don't you miss the danger?" is one of my favorite parts ever in a song. This song is a masterpiece
Started singing this in my head randomly haven’t heard it in years.
Chance better take all of the those grammy nominations. He deserves it.
Edit: 3 of 7 Grammys won. INCLUDING BEST RAP ALBUM. LETS GO.
Skyler you're right
Skyler I hope he wins at least all his nominations he really deserves it, I still don't understand how DRAM & shit are nominated
Skyler IF ONE MORE LABEL TRIES TO SIGN HIM.......
And if he don't win I will personally be super pissed.
Definitely.
People: "Hey Chance, what do you want for this music video?"
Chance: "Just find me a huge ass muppet"
John Roper lol
ROFL!!!!
John Roper im crying right now😭😭
Hugh Gass Muppet Thank you for being alive.
Oh shit you have me dead
Ending is epic... This song has definitely changed for me over the years. The words are fluid. I'm seven years into my recovery and I can so feel this song. Glad my paths have crossed with yours Chance. God Bless You!
This version is so much better than the Spotify and Apple Music version I swear.
well done for taking 3 grammys....keep the good music
This version >>> album version
This was already one of my favourites of the album but he took it to another level here.
Deyzah what the difference to the album one?
No female singer, also changes in the music itself.
TheGiggleGreg there was a female singer but a differentvonw
the beginning with the violin fire
ABC GamingHD John Legend and Eryn Allen Kane aren't on the album. And the music in general.
This song felt like the end credits of my childhood. When this song came out I graduated high school. Good times
yebba’s voice so beautiful
My nigga chance is #4 on trending he deserves this
“Same Drugs” describes the relationship between Chance and a girl from his childhood. Realising that they no longer share the same interests and experiences that they did as children, Chance reflects nostalgically on their shared youth and explores his own feelings of loss around growing up - Genius Lyrics
nice copy paste
Jesse Bader Finally! Someone knows his reasoning behind it. He's said it before
Thats why i credited Genius Lyrics Duh .....
Thought it's about peter pan...
Conrad Price the girl is referred as Wendy from peter pan
This version should be on Spotify
The ending is GOLD
The song is not about drugs so guys please stop asking it's about relationship between Chance and a girl from his childhood. Realizing that they no longer share the same interests and experiences that they did as children, Chance reflects nostalgically on their shared youth and explores his own feelings of loss around growing up --rap genius
oscarronie ._. This is the only explanation that's spot on.
oscarronie ._. Couldn't have said it any better
I think it's a little drug related lol... like cmon
Banksy McGee he said on Twitter it wasn't about drugs
he also uses Peter pan references
“She don’t...laugh the same way no more.” This song hits so many emotions. It’s about heartbreak, growing apart, making mistakes, falling into bad habits, trying to help someone who can’t be helped, trying to heal permanent scars, ending things but still caring so much about each other.
This song is about Peter Pan
maxmitch96 it’s about Peter Pan
It’s about whatever you think it is. Music and poetry are subjective, period
Fuxk..... I thought i was over this song, came back to it, red your comment while listening, started crying..... :D
Lili Velasquez This song is about the Old Chicago.
Still here 2024 gang
🫡
This could be a happy song about chance’s sobriety. Still loves his windy . His home
Chance The Rapper and The Puppet... still a better love story than twilight
Watching Chance evolve is honestly something else.
Who here in 2024
Man bro
All of us.
Not me
This song means so much to me
me too, i feel u. it hits me deeeeply I imagine my past and past relationships that went wrong, and my past or past self
@@an-qo6by yea it brings me back to a dark time in my life and I think about everything I’ve grown from and how far I’ve come 🤞🏽 it reminds me to keep going when I start doubting myself
I’m glad it means a lot to you
This song makes me feel feelings.
Theinsomniac826 you know what? Same
Anyone else get chills the second time he says "a shadow of what i once was"
Miguel Vazquez where is that?
CyBorG gaMing 1:40
Miguel Vazquez The expression on his face gave me the chills.
So many people you dont even realise wont be there when it matters
Still mad this version isn't on apple music :(
juts love the contrast betwen the soft focus and the HD ending.
Farid Alejandro Figueroa Garcia when I saw it leave it looked just like the music video except instead of snow it was roses. it was pretty amazing.
Farid Alejandro Figueroa Garcia I
its a beautiful video
i literally was ranting to my friend last night about how amazing it is
You
the puppet caught me off guard🙉 🔥🔥🔥
PicosABeast's XBL Tutorials she ruined it tbh
Delta Promotion I don't think so It would of been a regular and kinda boring video without the puppet. The puppet sparked up the video.
PicosABeast's XBL Tutorials hehehe me too
PicosABeast's XBL Tutorials
Same
Yebba, John Legend, Francis Starlight and Macie Stewart in one song? Nah chance is a cheat code to create a master piece, who would think of having 4 of the best voices in one song
still so good
All you need is happy Thoughts ❤️️
ya
What the hell the puppet scared the shit out of me when it woke up and started singing 😂
lol same
0hAlex dead I was like nooooooi 2sudden
0hAlex fucking same bruh. i flinched 😂😂😂
0hAlex. lsd trip
0hAlex lol for real
Rest in Piece to one of my cousins who didn’t get to make it past their teen years. To think I was hearing Chance at your funeral, rest up king😓
This version with yebba will always be superior😔🤚🏼
This song and video are making people turn into philosophers in the comments lmao
Jacob Magpantay W
Jacob Magpantay True
Jacob Magpantay what's wrong with that?
DomnoSaur never said there was anything wrong with it
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Jacob Magpantay it attracts them on slick
Why are his vocals so fkn perfect? I could listen to this my whole life.
oneandonlysamu you can
oneandonlysamu he is the only person I listen to
oneandonlysamu they're great, but I hear them as a less perfect Wyclef. even the regret from the loss of friends sounds Wyclef-esque
Ikr whenever i try to sing like this my voice immediately cracks and shit
also the song would i lie to you baby by charles and eddie
No matter how many times I hear this song, I always cry.
Friends, lovers, locations, passions, ideals, myself. All of it seems to be different than when I fell in love with it originally.
Yes
i love this!!
My first time hearing you sing, Chance...this song LIVE on The Voice. The Live performance was INCREDIBLY POWERFUL!
Same
Me too, all the feelings 😭😥😍🥰❤️
Came here straight from that performance. Can’t believe I never knew of this song. Bout to binge me on some chance🥰
Same here!
Same here
I love the fact he thanked God so many times at the Grammy's. Thank you JESUS!
Mahdina Here He didn't actually say Jesus...but he did say Lord...
Break me off a piece of that Kit Kat Bar....
johnny krav lol
johnny krav lmao spoke for me❤️❤️❤️😂😂😂
love that commercial!!
For some reason my mom laughed so hard because of that commercial
We like him because his music is goood? Stop being mad that everyone doesn't rap the same anymore. Rap is still good you just don't want to find people you like.
3:03 "Don't forget the happy thoughts, all you need is happy thoughts"
Such a wave of nostalgia.This song came out when i started diving in to drugs. I did everything.
Now im a year sober from everything. Not going back im leaving that phase of life and people behind. Its surreal how fast 6 years passed.
Glad to hear you're doing better
You are awesome
My favourite song in Colouring Book tbh
When your friend switches to Flintstone Hard Vitamins, while you’re still doing the Flintstone Gummies
Im stealing ur comment 😂
Savagebaum lol that’s funny hahaha....😮
🤔🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂
Haha fuuuuu your funny 😂👏
Lol, made me laugh first thing in the morning, thanks!😁
7 years later. Still bangs so hard.
My friends and I were the graduating class of 17. Basically ghetto glee kids. We played this album in the summer of 16. I’ve come to realize this song was a time capsule for us cuz it hits so different and is so much heavier every time I listen. 2016 was a great year, top 3 😂
chance the rapper for super bowl 52 🖒if you agree
ImDibb no we need someone hype, we need a good rock band to perform and put the players in the mood to win!!
Victor Castro Chance has plenty of hype songs, you just haven't listened to them probs. 'No Problem' and 'Angels' are some of the most hype songs most recently
ImDibb too late already said who it will be next they said Adele and Fetty Wap
ImDibb yeah
NateDaSavage dang I really want something different this year
chance the rapper proves good music is alive and well
Brandon Horan u trippin
Brandon Horan Yes
True man
Brandon Horan you're so right bro
Brandon Horan this is ass
This songs is absolutely great, to me it means when friendships slowly ends, the vibes don't match anymore
Good perspective
I think she OD or died..,
She bounced back singing about being gone..,
The new episode of Sesame Street looks great
He was denied by sesame street which makes this hilarious lmfao
Sarugh []
This comment made me realize that's the look they were going for lmao. Now I appreciate the video more because it makes me feel nostalgic.
Sarugh [] W
hahahaahaa yes!!!!
@ Sarugh [], (who wrote, "The new episode of Sesame Street looks great"):
Aargh, you beat me to it! (At least I wasn't the only one thinking Sesame Street.)
this episode of sesame street is lit
The B Ferrer 💀😂😂
The B Ferrer I want him on a episode of Sesame Street
lol hello ur hero to me :D thanks for the great comments and laughter hehehe B)
The B Ferrer im dead 😂
Seamus Botsford he would be such a perfect fit too. Like he's always so Happy lol
This song means a lot to me because, for me, when I listen to it I imagined my past self/ex friendships. I just think of myself singing to those people who are no longer in my life. I remember times in high school, when this song would play as my friends and I drove around the city. We would sing along to it, not really listening to the lyrics. Not a care in the world. "We don't, we don't do the same drugs no more." I can relate to that by taking it literally as I don't do drugs the way they all do anymore, and things had to change. The universe literally made sure I couldn't be in that phase anymore (I had a bad reaction one night). Anyways, I also think of it as we just don't lead the same lives anymore. We're not on the same paths. For a very, very, long time, I chose to suffer and miss them. I wondered why it had to end this way, after all the times I tried to control my life and make sure everything was perfect. But then life tells you "Ha, bet." Life is so wild tho because now, at 23, I have been hearing and seeing that all of those people from HS are still in the same exact place, same drama, bad energy, bad stories, etc. Then I imagined how drained and unhappy I would have been trying to be the peacemaker for all of them. That was when I knew forsure, it was meant to be. Who knows what my life would have been like if I kept going and felt unstoppable? And had friends who were negative, toxic, and lowkey did not actually ever mean well for me.Crazy! Change is so painful for me. It always was since I was a little kid and probably may always be like this. But I know in my heart it has to be this way. "I was too late, I was too late.. a shadow of what I once was." Chills.
Happy for you, reading this while listening to the song made it 5 times better
Keep your chin up. Head strong. You are doin it.
This will help whoever reads it
@@victoriah1121 :')
Very nicely written way of thinking. You deserve the clarity you have
After listening to this in college and now again 7 years later in 2024, it reminds me of my high school and college friends that moved on to have families and get married, some moved away, some still close but so distant that we don’t know each other anymore. I miss those days, so I keep those happy thoughts moving me forward.
You literally can't hate this guy. He's so good at his style no matter what genre you listen to, all he got is props
Actually i can hate him pretty easily.
My music taste is massive.
Which is exactly why i can hear how untalented this generic fake rapper is.
