Wise Ones! Truly hope you enjoy this video for “Empathy”. I did a little explanation for you guys down below to decipher the meaning behind the visual. Thank you guys so much for supporting “Apologies in Advance”. It means the WORLD to me. Video Meaning Explanation : “I wanted the video to reflect some of my personal experiences with empathy & being empathetic towards others. First scene starting off with my first experience with sharing my issues openly with someone. Which is getting a haircut with my barber. I feel like almost every black males first true interaction with therapy is with their barbers or at the barbershop. The verses are incredibly surface level almost in a casual frustrating way. Then it transfers over to actual therapy but with a woman. My second major experience with sharing my issues with someone, was with a woman that I loved dearly. I delved deeper into my problems because of the comfort level I experienced by being loved by another woman, which is what I wanted to symbolize in the scene with BJRNCK. Overall, this video is reflective of certain states of Empathy, & my first personal experiences with it.”
Aye fellow one this video is astronomical and the ways it was made especially how it was in different perspective like you and your homie talking like we all do with our barbers 😂 and how you were with a therapist which by the way ❣️ just gorgeous but like I'm sure you do it all comes with hard work wise up brother and I'm glad to see you on the rise
Coming from someone who used to lack the compacity to care about himself and showing his love by giving it to others. Thank you. I want to personally thank you for reminding me how far I've come as a human.
Probably the best conceptual album that describes the most vivid depictions of your world. Best project I've heard from you. Wise Up.. Africa in the building
The Wiggle i kinda dont want him to blow up because he'll start to change his music and not 4 the better. But i wish him much success if you know what I mean
One of my favorite songs on the album and that last verse is so relatable because im that person who makes ppl feel good when they're down but I'm quite and "strong enough" to deal with my problems. ( I'm having trouble just texting this out😅😅) but I'm been a loner almost all my life, im getting worst, and I'm starting to regret not being more social and telling someone how I feel because I've been thinking about my mortality and I thought about my funeral and how my family wouldn't even known me,truly.
damn this was a very good video definitely one of the best considering its so chill and the visuals isnt alot but it shows a big message such as when we vent to others and also when we let others help, the best visuals are truly the ones where not much is going on which lets you focus on the verses and what the scenes mean
Intro: Sylvan LaCue] Ah, da, yeah, yeah-yeah, da-da-da, yeah, yeah Ah, da, yeah, yeah-yeah, da-da-da, yeah Ah, da, yeah, yeah-yeah, da-da-da Mm, da-da-da, mm, da-da-da It goes, uh, uh I know how it is, yeah, I know how it goes I know what you feelin', I been through it all before, ayy Tell me what you need, hit a dose of this empathy Uh-uh, ah, uh [Chorus: Sylvan LaCue & (BJRNCK)] I know how it is, yeah, I know how it goes I know what you feelin', I been through it all before, uh Tell me what you need, hit a dose of this empathy (Empathy) empathy, (empathy) empathy (Empathy) empathy Ah, I know how it is, yeah, I know how it goes (goes) I know what you feelin', I been through it all before ('fore) Tell me what you need, hit a dose of this empathy (Empathy) empathy, (empathy) empathy (Empathy) empathy (yeah, yeah) [Verse 1: Sylvan LaCue & (BJRNCK)] Girl, you know I got a girl back home, why you textin'?

See, I could be the shoulder you lean and weep all your tears on Make me feel like king when I make you feel like your fears gone 'Cause you're not alone Somebody gets what you been goin' through But what about what I'm goin' through? Luckily, I built castles around these wild emotions Flooded waters with liquor potions Combine, you'll get mixed explosives Volcanoes of feelings erupt at any given time (Ooh-ahh) I should prolly turn my phone off and disappear (Ooh-ahh) I should prolly cut you off, this is gettin' weird (Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh) I should prolly say I'm busy, I'll hit you later and lie about it Would you understand or be pissed and cry about it? Empathy (Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh)
This a breath of fresh air I dig the 5:55 and 3:33 titles..the synchronicities along with my meditations make it feel like we being watched over and protected.. positives attract positives what energy you put out there in the world expect to get the same back.. ✨😇
Bruh, 40s yr old and your shit hits so good / hard to the soul. You're brilliant with your lyrics (hell, even direction for the vid), love love LOVE your talent. Such a damn solid album all around. So much respect for what you doin' with your life. Makes me wish / want that I could bring more to the world with mine. Years on. Still MUCH Respect. ~a random canadian dude

Intro: Sylvan LaCue]
Ah, da, yeah, yeah-yeah, da-da-da, yeah, yeah
Ah, da, yeah, yeah-yeah, da-da-da, yeah
Ah, da, yeah, yeah-yeah, da-da-da
Mm, da-da-da, mm, da-da-da
It goes, uh, uh
I know how it is, yeah, I know how it goes
I know what you feelin', I been through it all before, ayy
Tell me what you need, hit a dose of this empathy
Uh-uh, ah, uh
[Chorus: Sylvan LaCue & (BJRNCK)]
I know how it is, yeah, I know how it goes
I know what you feelin', I been through it all before, uh
Tell me what you need, hit a dose of this empathy
(Empathy) empathy, (empathy) empathy
(Empathy) empathy
Ah, I know how it is, yeah, I know how it goes (goes)
I know what you feelin', I been through it all before ('fore)
Tell me what you need, hit a dose of this empathy
(Empathy) empathy, (empathy) empathy
(Empathy) empathy (yeah, yeah)
[Verse 1: Sylvan LaCue & (BJRNCK)]
Girl, you know I got a girl back home, why you textin'?
Say you goin' through some things, love, why you stressin'?
Sit your ass down, though, you should tell me everything
(Everything) everything, (everything) everything
(Everything) everything
Ayy, dawg, why you always broke boy ballin' when I see you?
Instagram stories on Evil Knievel
But pull up to the spot, I'ma spot you on everything
(Everything) everything, (everything) everything
(Everything) everything
Ayy, love, I know you need space right now, I can feel that
I should make some time for myself, can't conceal it
But tell me what you need, baby, I'ma give you everything
(Everything) everything, (everything) everything
(Everything) everything
Ayy, bruh, fuck shit's on the rise, slow tide but I'm locked in
Responsibilities, ain't no option
I'll meet your ass in 20 minutes, I'ma do everything
(Everything) everything, (everything) everything
(Everything) everything
[Chorus: Sylvan LaCue & (BJRNCK)]
I know how it is, yeah, I know how it goes
I know what you feelin', I been through it all before, uh
Tell me what you need, hit a dose of this empathy
(Empathy) empathy, (empathy) empathy

[Verse 2: BJRNCK]
You been on my thoughts, lately
I can feel your heart, maybe
You should let me help you
Let me help you, help you
Help you, oh, help you
Your problems are my problems
I digest in high volume
Lean on me whenever you're not strong
Not strong, not strong
Not strong, not strong
[Bridge: BJRNCK]
Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh
Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh
Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh
Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh
[Verse 3: Sylvan LaCue & (BJRNCK)]
Exerted all my energy, lonely nights in this room
I should prolly be meditatin' or talkin' to God
But I'ma talk to you 'bout what you goin' through vividly
Thank me for understanding, mistake it for chemistry
How many words of wisdom do you require for empathy?
I put myself in so many other shoes
Ain't no punch for that bag I carry
I'm wary of the ways of this world
Deflectin' my issues, but what's yours?
See, I could be the shoulder you lean and weep all your tears on
Make me feel like king when I make you feel like your fears gone
'Cause you're not alone
Somebody gets what you been goin' through
But what about what I'm goin' through?
Luckily, I built castles around these wild emotions
Flooded waters with liquor potions
Combine, you'll get mixed explosives
Volcanoes of feelings erupt at any given time
(Ooh-ahh)
I should prolly turn my phone off and disappear
(Ooh-ahh)
I should prolly cut you off, this is gettin' weird
(Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh)
I should prolly say I'm busy, I'll hit you later and lie about it
Would you understand or be pissed and cry about it?
Empathy
(Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh
Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh)

Your music is too good, keep blessing us.

YOUR ALBUM WAS AMAZING I LOVE U
I always thought the song was about being almost "too" empathetical to others. That you should instead try to seek help from others as a balance.
