it was this part for me: I don’t know that it’s gon’ get better, will I get it over time? They be so negative these sentiments of mine Know it seem I’m winning, it’s my element to shine But it don’t always look the same inside as it is outdoors In the midst of clout warfare Tryna make ‘em feel me where they don’t anymore care And been having recent success, almost as scary as failure to me What if I still stress the people that’s caring for me out? Until they make their way out And I’m standing in sun covered in rubble from the bubble of my grey doubt And they waitin’ on emotional payouts For standin’ by me all these years when I would stay poutin’
"if I never lose this frown, shit, will I have lost you" had people walk out when I needed them the most, this line said it all for me. this dude is a gifted lyricist.
Same here struggling with depression and anxiety and this knows how I feel. I tear up sometimes but I love conscious rap, too much talent to be ignored.
But what does it cost? When you cant find the happy. Also I agree I've been saying for about 6 years craft will go down as one of the greatest to do it. Just needed TIME. The way he has leveled up in the last two years is amazing to say the least.

"I could find one cloud when it's sunny." Pessimism can be a mental battle. Especially when you'd rather be optimistic about your outlook on life. Pretty much the relatable gist of what I interpreted from this beautiful song. People wait patiently for your music and you never disappoint regardless of the topic! Hope to be as impressed in the future with your artistic touch on music :)
Today I felt like I could relate more than ever to this song. I suffer from OCD. It seems like I can never find rest. I hate it. I constantly obsess over the future, while making fickle changes to somehow ensure success. I cross my t’s and I dot my I’s , and even when that brings me success, I can’t find rest in the moment. It’s just good to see that someone can relate a bit to some of those sentiments, in a sense.
I been listening to you music for a few years now, and there's something no nestalgic about your music. It broight me out of dark times. Thankyou brother, keep doing work. God's got your back!
This man never ceases to impress! Been blessed to watch his talents grow over the years, as far as I am concerned one of the best artists in the world! 💯
Craft, even if the music industry doesn't recognize it, your art is eternalized in time bro. an about you let the life drop the next beat for us to dive in.
Glad i found you. Perfect for my life. Had an abusinve step father. A emotionally abusive mother. So i dont know whats right or what i should be. Do i take care of my mom. Take care of my wife. Take care of myself. Im so broken. But i need to keep myself on the back burner for now cause i got her, my mother, my siblings, and last myself. Hard for me to prioritize anything but money right now.
He sounds JUST like 50. Hook and all. Delivery. Better lyrics, they have the same accent. But the beat, everything! If I only heard this I'd think it was 50
Yo dude, been singing for 20 years, and in the past 2 years I have been working on my freestyle my own way because you inspire me. I hope you make alot more, and I hope you and the entire team of producers behind you get what your looking for out of your music.
55 seconds in and I already knew it was straight to the playlist. Why is this guy so underrated? The ones who know ain’t here for a popularity contest.
Everyones version of heaven aint the same, for some the idea of good is insane, going through life always playing like its a game, So never degrade someone for not being the same, Everyone is blessed including the awesome,evil,and lame, Perfectly imperfect and genetically mundayne, Visceral conversation has the tendency to complain,critiscize,and jeopardize tearing into your egos vein, now let it drain💯
This is one of those songs that stays in your mind for weeks. Marlon deserves much more recognition
not enough people that are really analyzing life. too many people going through the motions, not necessarily their fault tho. its a societal problem . Anyways glad YOU are here fam. 160k strong that recognize real
That's why I'm here on the train looking for this lyric hahaha. What a fucking banger!
Facts bro, his time is now :)
100%
He's too white... go ask Slug
"She said 'I wanna see you be right, I wanna see you be happy'
What if I don't know how?"
Man... I felt that...
Great song Mr. Craft!🔥
it was this part for me:
I don’t know that it’s gon’ get better, will I get it over time?
They be so negative these sentiments of mine
Know it seem I’m winning, it’s my element to shine
But it don’t always look the same inside as it is outdoors
In the midst of clout warfare
Tryna make ‘em feel me where they don’t anymore care
And been having recent success, almost as scary as failure to me
What if I still stress the people that’s caring for me out?
Until they make their way out
And I’m standing in sun covered in rubble from the bubble of my grey doubt
And they waitin’ on emotional payouts
For standin’ by me all these years when I would stay poutin’
I been pointing out the bad, but in good faith.
Fax. Came to the comments right after that line lol.
suffering with depression and ptsd, this song speaks loud to me.
deep bars, real hip hop. love it!!!
this Marlon craft is mad nice on the mic.
Facts. So many lines punched me in the gut on this one.
"if I never lose this frown, shit, will I have lost you"
had people walk out when I needed them the most, this line said it all for me.
this dude is a gifted lyricist.
Psilocybin cured my depresson, take it easy
we all are. No 1 is special. Your thoughts have been had before
Same here struggling with depression and anxiety and this knows how I feel. I tear up sometimes but I love conscious rap, too much talent to be ignored.
We still here craft
This instrumental is one of the best I’ve heard this year
TBH when i first herd this it reminded me me of 50 cent , the chorus is infectious
Anyone else getting 00s 50 vibes? This 🔥🔥🔥
my favorite artist for over a year this dude just never disappoints killin it every song
But what does it cost? When you cant find the happy. Also I agree I've been saying for about 6 years craft will go down as one of the greatest to do it. Just needed TIME. The way he has leveled up in the last two years is amazing to say the least.
Yeah, Marlon deserves way more than he's getting! Great flow and thoughtfull content every time
Oh, yeah.
This one's been with me through a lot of tough moments. A beat and a flow unlike anything else. This is one that will never leave my mind.
Agreed dude
Hope this album catapults you to where you belong...UP WITH THE GREATEST
That’s that real sh!t ! Put yourself in that song . Your feelings emotions , your life . I feel everything you do . Keep it going 🔥💪🏼
Feelings about feelings
It's unreal how slept on Marlon is.
Big up from the UK! Been trying to spread your name across the seas baby
This is IT!!! "What if i stress the people that's caring for me" "I be pointing out the bad, but in good faith". BARS BARS BARS. Real LIFE.
This man is beyond slept on... I guess hype overshadows talent and pure skill
Our society is lacking in basic moral principles ... its not surprising that most ppl still sleeping
Tryna call you out but they dial 8 This is like a triple entendre bar I can’t believe Marlon is this good
Just found this song, guy is really good. Giving me some 2000's 50 cent vibes , especially the melody.
{chorus}
I could find somethin’ wrong in heaven, baby
Oooh i swear something wrong with me
I could find somethin’ wrong in heaven, baby
But what i got to show for this honesty?
Might be the shit i’m on forever baby
Would you still want hold me down?
She said “i seen you be right, wanna see you be happy”
What if i don’t know how?
{verse 1}
What happens when you get to the top and it ain’t what you thought?
And you cross all your t’s and your i’s all got dots?
And the dots in your eyes gettin’ small from fatigue?
And they try call you out but they dilate?
That’s my current mind state in a time where times great
Shit, i be tryin make my prime wait
I got this fear about fearing that i fear about fear
And i got feelings ‘bout feelings
I be ceiling-ass ceiling
I be sherlock holmes of the stresses
I find all of them shits, girl i’m extra
I could find the one cloud when it’s sunny
I could feel broke in a pile of money
Tryin convince myself shit why i talk a lot
Shit, i could bring sand to the beach and then stand in the parking lot and not even go in
Take dips of positivity but gotta be thrown in like
{chorus}
I could find somethin’ wrong in heaven, baby
Oooh i swear something wrong with me
I could find somethin’ wrong in heaven, baby
But what i got to show for this honesty?
Might be the shit i’m on forever baby

She said “i seen you be right, wanna see you be happy”
What if i don’t know how?

Until they maketheir way out
And i’m standing in sun covered in rubble from the bubble of my grey doubt
And they waitin’ on emotional payouts
For standin’ by me all these years when i would stay poutin’
How much have i earned with my good traits?
I be pointing out the bad but in good faith
I been tryin’ tell me that i’d be happier happy
Make the darkness occasional, the content everlasting
This the type of beat that make me want talk in cliches
Make me want turn my phone off for three days
Make me wish that all my dues were just pre-paid
Make ‘em go through like five people to get to me
Let all my messages be relayed relays
On vacay eatin’ til my thoughts vacate
So i think i could turn off for a few
But if i never lose this frown shit, will i have lost you?
Appreciate you! I was looking for the lyrics lol getting obsessed w this song

First i heard his voice i thought it's 50 😂🙈
PS: Marlon is of the dopest and illest MC's out there ❤️👐
Same here
Frowns or Smiles, I'm still straight VIBIN. I'm not going anywhere, my guy.
Marlon Craft is a huge inspiration to me and I WILL produce a song for him one day.
There's no point in listening to new music anymore, it don't compare to new Marlon craft 🤯🤯
my favorite song from the album so far
Keep it rocking in the free world(while it's still free)! This is some classic rap. Marlon Craft is one of the few real left.
The lyrical description of the song's concept is on point! The track goes perfect with it! 🎤🔥
Powerful and honest self reflection, tough to not be a Debbie Downer
This is an amazing record. I feel for people who cant see constant sunshine in life.
The man, the myth, the legend
Already knew the track was great but I really love this video style. Big shout to Jacob for the dope work
Another banger ! Like a wine or whiskey better with time. Cheers craft 🍻
never found a song that describes myself this throughly. thank you marlon. been a fan since 2017, your music gets me through the days
I just recognised how much your music help me succeed in life over the last year. You really do give us the strength to believe in ourselves.
We're here for you whether you're smiling or frowning!
Algorithm comment, keep them coming craft
My favourite rapper is Marlon Craft
Love this concept man, hard to put these types of feelings into words and you killed it. I can't wait for the album.
Marlon your energy is incomparable at the minute and it's a big shout but you got that infectious Tupac type energy going on... I.e timeless
I can feel poor in a pile of money, I really fucking felt that. Poor is a mind state and $$$ can't change the mind.
Don't be afraid 2 go through the wrong wayz 🏁

Beats are going to be immaculate on this album.👌 Sound smooth af can't wait for the album man.
Honestly
The chorus had me thinking, "the white version of a peaceful 50 Cent" I just discovered this guy, he is nothing but fire
i just discovered this absolute banger, this deserves more love
My most played song last year, so damn relatable and raw. Dude kills it live too
I been listening to you music for a few years now, and there's something no nestalgic about your music. It broight me out of dark times. Thankyou brother, keep doing work. God's got your back!
Maybe it’s that distant memory of the truth and authenticity we were born with?
🔥🔥🔥🔥marlons MIC craft maturing into NY 90s boom bap🔥🔥🔥
Shitty day, this picked me up, 3rd listen right now, big ups and much respect from the north. One
This my favorite song. Wake up listening to this everyday and it gets me on a good course for the day. Appreciate you M.C! You a real one!
That last line. The fear that if you get better then people will begin to lose interest. That’s some true shit right there
I still dont get how you are so underrated. ✌️👍💪
This flow on the hook reminds me of 50 cent. Dude is cold
"I got this fear about fear
and that I'll fear about fear"
simple. potent.

Forever rising Marlon 🤘 gonna be my summer time for sure
Everyones version of heaven aint the same,

So never degrade someone for not being the same,

Perfectly imperfect and genetically mundayne,
Visceral conversation has the tendency to complain,critiscize,and jeopardize tearing into your egos vein,
now let it drain💯
Dope
