      This song hits home, in really big way for me. I listen to it constantly. His music is so full of soul and passion, and I find much of it relatable. This one most of all. I know I'm a fool just wish they'd say it too, or tell me I'm a fool because I'm wrong... but I'm not wrong.

    I'm so happy I've known about this song way before “Power book 2 : Episode 5”. But lemme tell you, when I heard this song in power I felt like Jacob is my brother, I felt so proud of him. If you paid attention to the songs in the Power Universe, you've prolly noticed the series been using a lot of songs by Jacob Banks, that just shows how insanely talented he is.

    *LYRICS*
    I believe in what I sell
    Why does everyone hear me wrong?
    If I told you different, would it sound the same?
    Would it make a difference? And anyway
    I know I've done wrong and I paid for it
    It's your time to talk and I'm listening
    Say that you don't want me, say that you don't need me
    Tell me I'm the fool
    Tell me you've been tortured, tell me you've been beaten
    What I've done to you
    Even if it doesn't matter
    Doesn't matter what's true
    Just say that you don't want me, say that you don't need me
    Tell me I'm the fool
    Look at all this heartache, what is left?
    Forgetting how it started, this is how it ends
    I know I've done wrong and I paid for it
    But it's your time to talk, for once I'm listening
    Say that you don't want me, say that you don't need me
    Tell me I'm the fool
    Tell me you've been tortured, tell me you've been beaten
    What I've done to you
    Even if it doesn't matter
    Doesn't matter what's true
    Just say that you don't want me, say that you don't need me
    Tell me I'm the fool
    Tell me that it's over, tell me that you mean it
    This time was true
    Tell me that I'm unknown
    To you, oh oh
    Say that you don't want me, say that you don't need me
    Tell me I'm the fool
    Tell me you've been tortured, tell me you've been beaten
    What I've done to you
    Even if it doesn't matter
    Doesn't matter what's true
    Say that you don't want me, say that you don't need me
    Tell me I'm the fool
    Tell me that it's over, tell me that you mean it
    This time was true
    Tell me that I'm unknown
    To you

      Agreed. I only started watching 3 weeks ago after my daughter introduced it to me. The professional and emotional turmoil you see the actors go through stays with you. Cannot stop thinking about it. On season 7, gets better and better. The songs chosen hit you in the heart. I am a 46 year old man going through marital disharmony for years, started crying uncontrollably last night when I heard this song.

I've noticed that all of the actors in his videos are exceptional at what they do. The portray of emotions are expressed with so much depth. I often feel as if I'm peeking into their window and it real. Shoutout to everyone involved in bringing these masterpieces to the screen.

    When the video started, it seemed ambiguos; didn't know what was really happening. But the story was developing. And I saw how the father couldn't open up; seemed afraid or uncertain on how to start the conversation. I can only guess that it is a painful discussion about his mother. Maybe she left them unexpectedly in death? Whatever happened, they're both hurting. And I couldn't finish wathcing after the son's first move! Deep. Touching. Thank you.

      I think the dad has probably come back after a long time. They're probably seeing each other after yeaaars. And what has inspired the dad to come back is the passing of the boy's mum. And they don't know where to pick up from. Or how to connect and as you listen to the lyrics it might help guide the thought process going on throughout each scene. But again.. That's just my theory. 😋 Open for discussion.

      Abritan Best episode especially the ending of Empire in a long time getting ride of Jussie Smollet was the best move they made

    Jacob Banks, this song is so powerful, I had to listen to it over and over. Thank you and best wishes from a new fan.

    This video and song has me in tears. Utter tears. Wish I could spend time with my dad like that.
