Use this as a “make part 2” button
Use this as We need an part two
I think it’s good as it is. It’s meaningful and doesn’t needed to be replicated in my opinion. But definitely more songs on the topic would be something I wanna see.
I hit 420 time to blaze some trees
Dam it needs a part 2 straight up
@@charlesgrocho6148 Ahaha there is a not iam Not straight parody and I know the complete lyrics cause it's amazing
As a fellow African American this song is so true How does this not have more likes?
I don't care how old this song is I respect it more and more every time I hear IT !!!! ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
The bars are SICK on this track keep that shit up man
We need this to be said right now
At first I thought it was a racist song until I saw side2
As a white man this song gives me chills when I listen to it this song speaks volumes it’s definitely deserved a Grammy
Black is powerful now and forever ❤️
Liked by a white man . (Females shit.)your as powerful as you allow yourself to be .stay beautiful .
Amazing facts.. powerful . Tellum Joyner.. 2024 still hitting..
Powerful and RAW!! Wish I saw or heard this one when it came out about 5 -6 years later but regardless the message is still loud and clear.
You don’t ever wait for jobs to call you. You call them and make sure they looked at your application. These kids were never taught that apparently.
I'm not even black and this guy is making me mad but I do understand the meaning :)
Alex Cook YES SO IM NOT THE ONLY ONE WATCHING THIS IN 2020😂
Why u mad it’s not him saying it it’s a voice over 😂
did u understand the meaning of this song?
@@alludzzz8154 yes I sure did. I learned something. Growing up my VERY BEST friend was black and her family took me under their wing cause my blood family abused me. We used to spend holidays together and I got to call her grandma Madea. When I wasn't thier her grandma s friends used to say hey where's that other little white girl you adopted? But I'm going to tell you...even if you have a black best friend and whoever don't think you KNOW the whole situation cause you DON'T and he'll YEAH BLACK LIVES MATTER cause look what the Damn police have done over the years. STOP your bitching about ALL lives matter you asshats too dumb to even know what they're talking about.
So yeah I'm NOT racist but I DON'T know everything just cause I'm not.
Peace.
@@garnetjohnson4902The meaning of this song is not to choose sides or get mad over the verses. It is to unite people and make them understand eachother. I don't understand that "all lives matter" bs and I in fact don't support it. I believe that every human is equal regardless of race, religion, etc.
2024 please gether here 🙏 ❤
This song is so powerful ❤
This is crazy. Wow I like to hear that.
This should've been dropped in 2020 this would have EXPLODED

"I love you but I hate you at the same time." Why isn't this song trending in 2020?
I love this fuckin song nigga yes I’m black
Why isn't it trending? Because basic humanity, respect, and compassion. Shouldn't be a "trend" it is (morally supposed to be) a reality
True but you know how much hate he would get
I wish white person call someone a N just because they do and see what happens 😕 don't get fucc up trying to prove a point
I'm still jamming to it (2023).🤘🔥
This song is one of the best songs ever written it shows how both white and black people feel honestly I would love a part 2
Not this white person. But then again I don't consider myself white. I'm proud of my family, not my skin. It's pretty stupid to be attached to a skin color.
@@bakersfielddoug
But you are attached to it. The world will never let you escape it.
@@acarpentersson8271 too much is put into how "the world" its time to separate from the world and just be human
You couldn't do a part 2 because he does both side already
I’m just saying as a white male I don’t really want to call black ppl the nword but I can understand the other points that the white was supposed to have
This is the first time I'm listening to this. I saw a piece about it on msnbc. Wow! Brave, creative, and powerful. I'm sitting here stunned.... thinking that we all have our differences and that's OK as long as we are respectful enough to listen, learn, and understand.... no matter how uncomfortable it may be.

We don’t have to like each other, we don’t have to agree on everything, but we gotta share this land and this planet. One day I hope, this song won’t have a meaning other than to show how we had to have a song show us in broad terms how bitter we are to each other

It's not enough to be "not racist." There is no middle ground. You either are racist or you are anti racist.
@@bakersfielddoug yeah okay
@@bakersfielddoug so I just, cant be 'not racist.' Because I have a life and cant actively help against it, or cant donate because my money pays my bills. Being not racist is enough.
@@guitar4254 you're dumb
@@jfsharpie9975 I'm actually quoting a professor that speaks at Berkeley.
I refuse not to cry but the ending did it all. That hug hits different
This song is the best, literally. It’s like he encapsulated American racial tension and put it honestly in two peoples shoes. All the things many people think but never say out loud, so it never gets resolved. I especially love the bridge where he talks about the cycle continuing, placing blame, and how divided we are. The song also takes accountability for both sides. Joyner really outdid himself here.
It's crazy. Soon as I finished listening to this song I tried talking about it with my homie and every word I said rhymed

@@swetsTV I am so confused rn i aint playin, what does this song meannn does it mean give peace or does it mean take a side?? Like im confusedd
@@aski8976 my understanding is that no matter the social issue there’s always two sides and we all need to look into the deeper meaning behind both
@@aski8976 one line from the song sums it up, "there are 2 sides to every story and now you know mine". If you look as just one side of the story, or you listen to just 1 person in the song, you will never understand the full story. It is important to understand both sides.

Because he is rayce grifter
@@sticksnstonespatriot1728 ?
grammys are rigged as fuck because you can't have powerful songs win awards to not cause drama with the fucked up music industry

Ghaye.
@@sticksnstonespatriot1728 childish
@AUSTRUMU PROSPEKTS KOMISIJA he never said he disliked it. I get how it can make you feel uncomfortable but i think that was the point
POV he was not the one singing 😅
Amen brutha! We gotta stand together. God loves us all. Fuck the government. They want us to pick a side. Nope..their is no side. We all in this together! Much love!
White or black … we’re all sprits/souls eventually.
White ppl words so you can say the n word
It's crazy how both sides of the song objectively have points
Because what you think is evil isn't just doing one thing that's bad. And just because what you think is good and does a good thing doesn't mean it doesn't do bad shit at the same time.
@@Jamplays592 not really, it's because the issues go far deeper than race. There's no such thing as good or evil in an objective context, what you see as moral and just others may see as wicked and disgusting. There's no objectivity to labeling things good or bad because in the end it's just a point of view which is a subjective expression
That was the point
@@justaguyonyoutube yeah that's not accurate. There are plenty of things that are wrong regardless of how people perceive them .
@@justaguyonyoutube there is objective good and evil. It's objectively good to help someone in need and objectively evil to murder. That's according to pretty much any culture, ever.
It's more nuanced than that, of course, but on a really basic level you're just wrong.
There is an inborn moral compass - it isn't all nature or all nurture. And that makes complete sense, just in an evolutionary sense.
Good and evil may or may not be "just" human conceptions, I won't claim one or the other as truth, but it's either dishonest or naive to suggest that they don't exist. They certainly do, as ideas, or we wouldn't be talking about it in the first place.
All or nothing approaches to complex and nuanced issues are silly. You're making a very extraordinary claim and presenting a self-assured veneer as if you know the truth. People have argued these things for thousands of years and we will likely continue arguing these things for thousands more. A little humility wouldn't kill you; you don't have all the answers.

This is art.. this is what greatness is
Joyner the 🐐
He deserves a grammy
Got wait for dat mfs still sleepin
This explains the whole problem in 2019-2020 with people being prejudice and stuff
It explains the whole history of the world
It explains the whole problem that’s been going on for hundreds of years. Especially in the early/mid 1900s. Racism and division between both Black and White people isn’t necessarily a skin colour issue it’s a mindset issue. Racist people exist because of past issues between races and because they held onto that and spread their toxic point of view and infected other people. All people despite origin deserve love and peace, we should all get on and not see colour because deep down we’re all the same, we’re all human after all and at the end of the day skin colour/appearance doesn’t matter it’s who you are who determines who you are. Spread love not hate. And this is from the perspective of a white person. I mean sure I may have been “racist” in the past (when I was a kid) I thought it was strange that other people have different skin colour and then I learned that it wasn’t strange and that it was a normal part of humanity. But I guess we were all kind of like that as a kid because we were naive and hadn’t really seen the world.
White guy here. What I got from this song was that there's a point on both sides. Okay, that sounds basic as fuck... except I mean there's REALLY a case on both sides. Whites and blacks spend so much time hating each other and killing each other that there's almost no understanding at all. But then when we try to understand each other, we also fight that shit "Trying to steal black culture", "Paying my taxes for your food stamps".... so there's a misunderstanding and we do it to each other. That's sad. We could do better.
Right, We can all do better tryin to understand each other.
@@dirkaveli4792 For sure man. We all gotta live on the earth together.
This video is extremely courageous and enlightening. My first time listening to Joyner Lucas and I must admit I am pleasantly surprised by the lyrical content and subject matter depth. I will listen to more of his ventures. I think l have found a gem.
Now I like this act.
Yeah but hes just mumbling now, you'll be disappointed seeing him doing useless meaningless songs. This one and devil's work is a philosophical work. The rest trash
@@ahmadnuhu2871not true, listen to long way, winter blues, I'm sorry, broski, bank account remix, mask off remix, like any artist you pick and choose which you like, devils work 1 and your forgetting part 2😊
it’s so good but I can’t rap along with it without thinking about the people who haven’t heard the whole thing and will think I’m racist AF
Not starting an argument here but the same way that the second part isn't fascist is the same way the first part isn't. Joyner knows something you failed to realize from this song and that's this: we come from different places and both have shit to say about one another and it's possible to out those differences aside and coexist.
@@eastcoastadventure1290 how you gon say “not tryna start a argument” and literally dissed nigga 💀

This song still gives me chills. Most influential song imo. Plenty of other fantastic songs but this one hits in a whole different way
"I'm ducking every time I hear a fucking plane now"
every. fucking. time. and. day.
All black people don’t do weed and smoke, party and etc We can be civil 🥺
Same for all white people not Trump loving conservatives. Joyner pits 2 stereotypes against each other, both races are varied and nuanced. We are individuals after all.
Incredible song and video though. Starts a good and much needed conversation.
Racism drives me crazy. I love Joyner's point of view, 2 sides to every story, but we are all one people, how much better would we all be if we stop looking at color and look deeper.
No shit, stop letting media depict everyone.
I personally don’t hate white people I strongly dislike the people who take advantage of their power and are hurtful to other races because they are “superior “
Im...
White and even I know that I ain't racist I have a black husband
dis song needs grammy
No .. Grammy needs this work
The white guys acting skills are insane, he genuinely looked like a proud racist.
Maybe he’s not acting lol
Unlike the brotha, who wasn't acting.
I've been so angry with what is happening to our Country.
I've always judged people by character and never judged another religion as not to have my faith questioned.
I didn't understand the hate.
After this, I truly do.
Maybe, we all just need to meet and talk.
Get to know one another on a personal bases and go from there
Exactly. We're all connected.
Wow!
Amen

If you picked a side you're to young for this song most educating song ever made this generation needed this so we dont repeat our fathers sins... Factsss
Im 16 and I get the meaning. I always looked at both sides of the story, but due to something that happened my vision got cloudy and I just started blaming the wrong people. This song really helped me get back to my old self. People shouldn't focus on the past to much, it only causes hatred and suffering. Stay strong ✌💯💯✌

5 years later and it still slaps, This song deserves a billion views 🤞🤞
I’m an “Euro-American” and I have a biracial son, he is technically my step son, (his biological father is black) and he has known this his whole life but he is my son, he has 3 brothers that are my biological kids but he has told me that he didn’t feel any different from them, thank God! So I have had a unique view of the racial issue(s) in this country. I have worked with people for years and as soon as they learn that my oldest son is “black” you can see the thought process with them realizing all the racist things they have said to or around me or they will actually change the way they interact with me! The sad part is, some people don’t even know that they are racist, they actually think their attitude is great, I have to explain to them why their point of view is the “racism” that is the problem. The racism the kkk burdens humanity with is easy to defeat, but the racism that most people have is hard to overcome. When people see a black man, not just a man, like every other man, that is hard to counteract. When people are so blind to the truth they say that “there isn’t disadvantages facing minorities today, they have the same, if not more, opportunity than anyone!”, it drives me crazy. Until white people in America can see people for who they are and not the color of their skin, nothing is going to change. Until people see a person, not a black or brown or white person but a person, that day will be a great day. I hope I am still around to witness it,.......peace be with you all.
I’ve been told that it is hard to do because ppl are born racist we humans naturally like to be around others that look/act/think like ourselves when your young you gatta teach your children what’s ok and what’s not ok
Racism is embedded in our mind, not able to be detangled overnight, maybe not even over a century. I hope my grandchildren will be able to live freely in they're latter years but I know that my generation will have to face racism for the rest of our lives( I'm 14 right now ).
Black Lives Matter....why are people disclaiming a truism. Obviously all lives matter but when we say our lives matter we are saying that there are people who dont treat us that way. Then those same people come to our protest with their own signs trying to disclaim, if that's the right word, our protest. Trying to protest against Black Lives Matter, which to me sounds like you're saying black lives dont matter. If your not racist after that then you are most definitely ignorant.

No aint no way people are born racist its learned, when I was a kid my first friend and best friend is black, and when his parents said we couldn't play together, I cried my eyes out, im still friends too this day, kids aren't naturally racist, that is something that is taught

Back in my wild days, my favorite drug dealer was black.

I responded "but you are a drug dealer" and he said "yeah but those n*ggas didn't know that", then we both started laughing hysterically lol.
But there's two sides to every story an I wish I knew yours.

Anyone else always tear up when the man holds his arms out for a hug🥺
I love how it's from both sides. Both listened and retorted. And at the end realize we should just be love.. Not hate ... We have different ways. Different ways approaching one another. Message of this song is LOVE. Love one another. Always

Uncomfortable, yes.
Mind opening, indeed.
This is THE conversation that needs to happen on a mass scale so we can truly unite. Untie as brothers and sisters, as Americans, or simply because we are ALL humans. Ive lived both sides of this story and i will fight for everyone!

"Its like were living in the same building but split in to 2 floors"
I've watched this so many times and it still hits the same everytime!! It's all about understanding how history has put us into this position and to move forward as black and white people, this would relate to so many people(I'm from the UK) but it's not mainstream so doesn't get seen!! Poetic and honest song.
This song gave me 96% in L.A. when I was in highschool, that's how strong these lyrics are! Mad respect! (Project was to find a song that describes the world)
This is hands down the best and realest rap song ever written. So underrated, 2024 and I'm still listening to this shyt and just looking at how nothing changes for better...
I have a midlife crisis and I’m not even mid aged
My feelings are kinda 50/50 on this video. Just goes to show there's more than one side to a story. Peace and love to everyone.
This song is needed now more than ever
Sad but true
This song is art at its finest and has been unmatched still in 2022
🔥🔥🔥
This song gives me cold chills every time 🙌💯 incredible song
😭😭 i feel so bad now since i heard this
Why? Unless you’ve been racist...
The feeling of this song at 12 then 13 then 14 is that every year you start to see each side you start to realize what's happening and see that no one is in the right everyone is in the wrong
what a message. neither side is entirely right or wrong. but there is a right answer mixed between them somewhere.
I feel like the point of this song isn’t that we have to pick who we side with but rather that we shouldn’t have to pick sides we should take the time to understand All peoples stories and where they come from so that we can come to accept and love each other despite our skin colours, beliefs or up bringing cuz it’s not hard to see there is racism in our world and I’ll admit that as racism is more widely seen and people want to make a big changes to get rid of it there are those who understand that we can work together to change this world and those use the fight against racism to push there own agenda calling all white people or cops racist because they did something they don’t agree with. The fight against racism is about changing our world and helping everyone not making all white people look bad you see at the end of the day we’re no different ya sure your skin might be a little bit darker then mine and your conditions in life might be worse then mine because some asshole decided your to black to work for him but he ain’t like that because he hates you he’s like it because of this world he was raised into and things his parents told him to believe but that don’t mean he deserves to be beat or killed or shamed by the internet it just means he needs someone who can show him there side of the story and help him understand that there is no difference between you and him besides pigment and the life you were raised in and well you can’t change the colour of your skin you can try and change the minds of those who were raised to only see the colour of your skin
I Agree
that is the exact opposite of what "minorities" are demanding. First thing is that all non whites see race as essential to who they are. They care about their race, not equality per se. They advocate for their race when it suits them. Many minorities are demanding special treatment via affirmative action, relief funds, preference for covid treatments, reparations, and access to white countries. Whites dont get to have a border or a home country. Look at south africa for the future of whites in a non white country.
