    People say that NF'S music is about sadness but I say that he's a mood and heals my depression every day I listen to his music.

      There's a difference between treating the symptom and treating the cause. Music can make you feel better for the day. Unless you change your life you'll always be reliant to music to treat your depression. Try to act quickly, while music still does the trick.

    Honestly, I hate the people on here that are like,"Only the people that have been listening since they started are real fans." Bullshit. I only discovered NF recently, but I love this music. I had never heard of him before like, October of 2017. That doesn't make me a fake fan. That means I didn't have the means to discover his music before I did, and I discovered it when I needed it most in my life. So cool yourselves. Listening longer doesn't make you a better fan.

      I honestly wonder what you define as new or interesting it seems your view on actual real music must be vague or non-existent cause what he says has more weight and meaning than anything you could ever even bring your self to understand . the next time you want to take down real art . Ask yourself if you say something new or interesting everyday if you can not put that in a song then kindly remain silent .

    • @justindavis4664
      @justindavis4664 7 лет назад +8

      Name 1 other artist that puts the same things in context the way he has done. The reason he has weight and meaning is because his words, his music, his art isn't his to begin with. Correct me if I'm wrong but this man is reaching out for souls. He's using Christ. The bible tells us he will give you a tongue they cannot gainsay nor resist. The Lords using him to reach souls in the balance. I've looked at many "Christian" artists. I don't think any of them have as much of a leading as NF, music wise and spiritually. Life experiences has given him an very deep understanding to coincide with what the Lords given him.

      good song? sure.
      new? not even remotely. "you're all asleep" has been done as a song theme a million or so times.
      interesting? to a degree; good instrumental, good breakdown. but this is hardly more artful than a "booze and bitches"-type song.

      chavezery09 all of nf's songs are insanely more artful that a "booze and bitches" song. every song that he writes is about a personal struggle that he is dealing with or has dealt with, which brings hope and inspiration to people, while all the "booze and bitches" songs basically tell people of all ages, including MINORS, that it's OK to have sex and smoke illegal drugs and drink. he is using the gift that God gave him to write these songs. what would you rather have as a role model for your kids, wiz khalifa, someone where all of their song is about drinking and smoking, basically telling people to do it, or NF, someone who writes songs about his life and his struggles and gives hope to people struggling with the same thing as him and helping them survive the tough times in their lives?

    *LYRIC*
    You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape
    'Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake
    If you'd open your eyes then maybe you'd see what's at stake
    You're sleeping, you're sleeping
    You make a lot of money and you live in a mansion
    And pretty much got everything that you could ever imagine
    But you feel like even though you got everything in the world
    You got nothing, so what you do then is you start going backwards
    You runnin' in a direction
    And you lookin' for something that isn't real
    And all you know is that you just gotta have it
    What you're doin' is sleepin'
    And thinking that you're awake and you're not
    And the problem is that you don't know what you're after
    So you put everything that you have into what you do
    Hoping that one day maybe you don't have to feel like you're empty
    But as you get older a lot of weight on your shoulders is getting heavy
    Then you look back and you start to regret things
    You only get one life
    And every time you lookin' at yours
    You feel like everything you have is a waste!
    And the problem and the reason you could never fill a hole in your life
    Is because you were never awake
    You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape
    'Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
    You wake up in the morning
    But you feel like you never got up and go to work
    And you feelin' like you ain't got a purpose
    And you tryna get motivated but everything you do turns into a mess
    Like you ain't nothing but worthless
    And, yo, you look around
    A lot of these other people you lookin' at
    To you, you describe as perfect
    So you point a finger at God and tell him to do his job
    And fix ya' life up cause nothin' is workin'
    And you will try to hide and make it seem like it's nothin'
    But really you feel like everything is crashin' around you
    And you develop a problem in trustin' in other people
    Which later became an issue that will mentally pound you
    You only get one life
    But every time you lookin' at yours you feel like all you ever see are mistakes
    And the problem and the reason you could never move forward in life
    Is because you were never awake
    Wake up
    You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape
    'Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
    You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape
    'Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake

      If you rap from the head you have lyrics that play with ppls mind . Makes em think , makes em question . Basically : smart
      If you're rapping from the heart it means that you wanna touch other ppls hearts . Make others seem like they ain't alone and assure that they're ok .

    NFs music is literally therapy. I will never understand why people hate on him. He literally writes about his life, and his past. He doesn't curse in his songs, He writes from heart. while other rappers just write crap about Guns, s3x, etc. (Not saying all Rappers are like this) but its very common for most rappers to just rap about the same things. NF is different. And that's one of the things I love about him ❤

    You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape
    Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake
    If you'd open your eyes then maybe you'd see what's at stake
    You're sleeping, you're sleeping
    [Verse 1]
    You make a lot of money and you live in a mansion
    And pretty much got everything that you could ever imagine
    But you feel like even though you got everything in the world
    You got nothing
    So what you do then is you start going backwards
    You runnin' in a direction
    And you lookin' for something that isn't real
    And all you know is that you just gotta have it
    What you're doin' is sleepin'
    And thinking that you're awake and you're not
    And the problem is that you don't know what you're after
    So you put everything that you have into what you do
    Hoping that one day maybe you don't have to feel like you're empty
    But as you get older a lot of weight on your shoulders is getting heavy
    Then you look back and you start to regret things
    You only get one life
    And every time you lookin' at yours
    You feel like everything you have is a waste!
    And the problem and the reason you could never fill a hole in your life
    Is because you were never awake
    [Hook]
    You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape
    Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
    [Verse 2]
    You wake up in the morning
    But you feel like you never got up and go to work
    And you feelin' like you ain't got a purpose
    And you tryna get motivated but everything you do turns into a mess
    Like you ain't nothing but worthless
    And, yo, you look around
    A lot of these other people you lookin' at
    To you, you describe as perfect
    So you point a finger at God and tell him to do his job
    And fix ya' life up cause nothin' is workin'!
    And you will try to hide and make it seem like it's nothin'
    But really you feel like everything is crashin' around you
    And you develop a problem in trustin' in other people
    Which later became an issue that would mentally pound you!
    You only get one life
    But every time you lookin' at yours you feel like all you ever see are mistakes
    And the problem and the reason you could never move forward in life
    Is because you were never awake
    Wake up
    [Hook]
    You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape
    Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!

    At the end of the day, I get into bed, pull the covers over my head and listen to NF's music, and I'm going to admit, I am depressed and I have thought about killing myself before but the only reason I haven't is because of Nate's music, because at the end of the day while I'm under the cover listening to NF, I cry. I don't mean to put pressure on Nate when I say his music keeps me alive if he stopped making music I would be VERY sad, but I would listen to the songs that are already made, but Nate's music is what keeps me from losing my emotions completely.

    I was this woman in the room. He took both of our kids, while I was working two jobs, getting stressed, paying for our house, everything, he did nothing but stay with them. Never gave me a chance to be a mom. It was all about control, from incubator to professional worker, no time to be a mom inbetween. It destroyed me. Been fighting to see my two kids ever since. He doesn't believe that I have a mothering bone in my body. It's so hard, not to believe he's right. All I know is to work, cook and clean. I feel like such a horrible person for it. They didn't deserve that. All I ever wanted was to be a mom. It's like constantly being torn, between wanting to fight and wanting to let go, thinking you'll do a crappy job anyways.

I’m experiencing this right now during a contentious Divorce with my soon to be Ex-Husband he controlled me, when he was losing control he used the kids to control me. Calling CPS 4 times in a year, false child abuse accusations investigated & cleared. When they lose control over you, they use what they can. When they’ve used up what they can, they control how others perceive you, spreading lies so much to the point that you question yourself and believe you are the problem. But it’s his control he seeks over every aspect of your life. Til you have nothing are nothing and hopeless without him, and your children. That’s a severe Domestic Violence and emotional abuse situation. Get in touch with Turning Point or other Domestic Violence Agencies.

    It is rare to find an artist who can make you feel every emotion possible; they can make you cry, be angry, be anxious, be happy, be hyped up, felt understood. It is also rare that they genuinely can't bring out a bad song. NF is one of these rare artists. Of course I have favourites, but I literally find every one of his songs good.
    I really hope NF comes to Germany next year for his Clouds tour. Also cannot wait for his next album (as he said in That's a Joke - "I been writin' chill, Just chew on this 'til the record's built, okay."

    You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape
    'Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake
    If you'd open your eyes then maybe you'd see what's at stake
    You're sleeping, you're sleeping
    You make a lot of money and you live in a mansion
    And pretty much got everything that you could ever imagine
    But you feel like even though you got everything in the world
    You got nothing, so what you do then is you start going backwards
    You runnin' in a direction
    And you lookin' for something that isn't real
    And all you know is that you just gotta have it
    What you're doin' is sleepin'
    And thinking that you're awake and you're not
    And the problem is that you don't know what you're after
    So you put everything that you have into what you do
    Hoping that one day maybe you don't have to feel like you're empty
    But as you get older a lot of weight on your shoulders is getting heavy
    Then you look back and you start to regret things
    You only get one life
    And every time you lookin' at yours
    You feel like everything you have is a waste!
    And the problem and the reason you could never fill a hole in your life
    Is because you were never awake
    You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape
    'Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
    You wake up in the morning
    But you feel like you never got up and go to work
    And you feelin' like you ain't got a purpose
    And you tryna get motivated but everything you do turns into a mess
    Like you ain't nothing but worthless
    And, yo, you look around
    A lot of these other people you lookin' at
    To you, you describe as perfect
    So you point a finger at God and tell him to do his job
    And fix ya' life up cause nothin' is workin'
    And you will try to hide and make it seem like it's nothin'
    But really you feel like everything is crashin' around you
    And you develop a problem in trustin' in other people
    Which later became an issue that will mentally pound you
    You only get one life
    But every time you lookin' at yours you feel like all you ever see are mistakes
    And the problem and the reason you could never move forward in life
    Is because you were never awake
    Wake up
    You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape
    'Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
    You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape
    'Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up

Now I started a new career but sometimes i feel like I'm not putting in all the effort i should. I recognize my problems and i go to therapy, i change for a while but then i go back to the beginning. Sometimes i feel like screaming to myself "fucking wake up!! Stop giving up, finish what you start for once, fight for your life!!!". God, i want to stop feeling like this

      I had similar issues and even now question my decision. I know I will be okay though because I spent a few years out of school to discover myself. I found I do not like sitting at work for long periods or working at computers, also that I’m good at problem solving and working with my hands. As long as I have a job with these basic parameters I will be happy :). What I’m saying is, don’t worry so much, take in your surroundings, live in the moment and find who you really are. Life will follow accordingly

    Some people might think this is depressing. I watched it, and I was upset at the fact that they never changed. They get angry, lose control, and I'm expecting something (or Someone) to help them. The more I watched it, the more I realized: Not everyone is going to "wake up". This opened my eyes to the very big reality that not all will be saved, not all will repent. They, "Point a finger at God" and it never goes beyond that. I think we need to take this video as an encouragement to be a light to those who haven't awoke. Maybe, if the light is bright enough & they are curious about what it is, they will open their eyes to find Jesus Christ, and have eternal life. May God bless you all! Sorry for the long comment.

I will use everyone of those opportunities to shine the Light of Christ into the darkness of this world. I always wondered why they came to me. Then I realized: I'm almost guaranteed to be the only Christian friend they have. Why would they come to me? This culture today really neglects being there for friends. They're just suppposed to benefit you. But the Spirit in me causes me to be different. They are drawn not to me, but to His Spirit. I will pray that someone who has Him will find you in real life. I am here until then. God bless you. :)

When you understand that the one and only God loves you so much, that he came and experience the worst imaginable death to pay for our sins and that he would do this all over again just for you. That he loves you so much and he wants to be your best friend, then you will find purpose. You always have someone who cares and loves you, to talk to, his name is Jesus. He is with you, always. Your worth and value is in him, and he is in you. Stephanie, be the light. You are amazing and you are special.

    By “wake up” he means “spiritually wake up”. We all go through life asleep feeling like we’re dreaming and we think money will solve all our problems. Even if we get everything we want, money, the house, the car, “the perfect marriage” etc. we’ll always have this void that can’t be filled until we learn self love which leads back to God. Point is, we need God to feel that void. And ONLY HE can feel that void. I know this from experience. Great song btw 👌🏼

    Did you notice that the one guy was cleaning the outside of someone else s house, when his house was a total mess? And the lady appeared to have it all together but in the inside of herself she was a mess? I received that unless you start cleaning the inside of yourself first, your world around you will begin to fall apart, Start with God first and he will build your house(you) that will never be able to crumble. John 3:16-21
    Sure we all make mistakes figuring things out on our own,that's what leads to disaster every time in my opinion, my experience. When we surrender to Jesus the pieces of your life will come together, no matter what you have done or how bad it seems right now, it's not too late. Trust me on this one, no one can change your life but Christ? I've tried everythinggggggg. Then I tried God the Father Jehovah, I will never go back to that old life ever again. I lived that life already and it sticks big time, I hope you give Christ a chance. Once you begin to apply his Word in your life...you will be changed forever! Thank You NF for your songs and keep up the Good Work!

    “You Only Get One Life,
    But Everytime You Lookin’ At Yours
    You Feel Like All You Ever See Are Mistakes,
    And The Problem And The Reason
    You Could Never Move Forward In Life
    Is Because You Were Never Awake, Wake Up!”

      +Phoenixlover822 don't try to bring others faith down. Okay, you might not believe in him, but guess what, WE do. That's exactly the only thing that matters. Judgement day will come, you'll be begging down on your knees to enter the golden gates, but you're going to be a little to late. I advise you seek God before the time is up. His time is coming around. If you really want to understand what I'm talking about, read the book of Noah, you'll gain knowledge. I'm not trying to shame you, yes we all have different beliefs, But we believe ours is stronger than any other, God is the light. God is everything. Trust in him. I'm sorry something so horrid happened in your life to turn you against God, or you simply didn't get taught on his word, but pick up a bible, it's the best book out there.

    • @andrewtaylor2607
      @andrewtaylor2607 8 лет назад +7

      You have a public statement when you go to church and get baptized. You don't necessarily find the Lord when you do this. It is just a symbol. You can find the lord when you see the problems in your life, and accept him. getting baptized is just a public statement showing your faith.

      Aniya Anderson wake the fuck up! lol if you want to try to bring on your awakening do some yoga stretches and deep breathing. Also, this might sound weird to you but talk to the Universe. You'd be suprised. She's a girl that just wants to be noticed and appreciated. I rubbed the back of my skull where the digits are and meditate. There's stuff of yt that walks you through it. Mindvalley has a really good one. You'll get there. Oh, watch some videos about it and things that arise, they have daily videos with some pretty cool guys. Nemaste.
