It's not hidden knowledge. You can have it. It takes a walk off of a mental cliff assuming you will be caught, but you will be caught. I did it just like Charles. Your Creator has a net built just for you. In the same instant you realize you didn't die from the fall, you will be given a peace and understanding of things that will allow you to live a completely different existence. The trials don't go away, but you will see the world the same way he says he does in this song ✝️🔥💯🤜
The key word: encouraging.... encourage others. People may find negativity from others a reason to suppress creativity and instead conform. But what do I know..
❤️🔥 Great video universe has brought this masterpiece of a my favorite song to my attention Love this Perceptive 🎶 Crazy to me is going against the grain spiritually staying in your own lane being true to self of uniqueness Imaginative creativity. To be Great is to be misunderstood understanding being confident in your Self Value and inner Vision 💯
Enlightenment - There is nothing can be done in your conscious mind. You are nothing internally but you can do a lot externally of either good or bad but strive for GOOD. Karma will come back.
I thought he was going to deconstruct the song and not completely reframe the lyrics in his own super subjective way. That's not a deconstruction. But I enjoyed it anyway. A bit preachy and clearly self-soothing as it was. Who hurt you bro? ;;) For what it's worth; I thought it was about Ceelo's own 'Awakening' process. I distinctly remember him saying something like that in an interview about writing it.
@@ItachiUchiha-ut6xj listen to the song a few times in a row. The whole song is a double-entendre. It's a relationship song with a woman and it's a visionary song speaking on his meeting with the Holy Spirit
ruclips.net/video/JjU1Muyp6Zg/видео.htmlsi=M3mOSVrw4Y2Xzt8g Barkley does his best to show everyone the deeper side, the other side of the double-entendre right here. When he says "he lost his mind" he's saying he gave his mind to his Maker, and then goes on to speak with the wisdom he was given. He wears an airline outfit on stage to show he is now a traveler with a destination.
Obviously a song about enlightment and hidden knowledge.
Explain this with the most amount of detail as possible

I've posted your answers. Say hi if you want to hear more
@@justincabrera6865btw, his words about musicians giving their life is just him putting the money makers minds to ease.
But it wasn’t because I didn’t know enough…. I just knew too much
Nah... that's crazy
When I first heard it gave me goosebumps. The lyrics kept telling me he’s telling me sumn 😂
damn this one hell of a break down and i love the jay z tie in
Thanks for giving it a chance! And I love 4: 44 so I thought it just felt right to talk ab it in this video
Soy colombiano no tengo ni idea hablar inglés. Pero me encanta esta música y esto motiva,aprender hablar este idioma
i was literally singing this song earlier this morning… that’s a crazy coincidence
Haha thats pretty funny tbh

Nice video. Loved the breakdown/explanation.
Thanks! I appreciate it
“I just knew too much” “does that make me crazy?”

Thank you! I appreciate it

uhh... sure
There is nothing to deconstruct. The song is a testimony to meeting his maker in the midst of a relationship.
What? 😐

He did crack the code. He was allowed to see beyond the veil, and he wrote this song to tell everyone.
ngl
this is nonsense
Lame!
wtf i do?
@@KingBennySorry, I was expecting something more profound.
@@KingBennymy bad, don't take it personally, bro. I was just disappointed in the moment.
