    I remember listening this song over 7 years ago and yet here i am again. I know everyone is probably gone but i am here. I was just a depressed kid at the time and listening this made me calm. I always thought it will be always better when you grow up. It didn't. Lot of things passed, lot of terrible lessons learned and now i'm listening this after all these years while smoking. Like you say , it's just underrated. Hope we can survive

      This reminds me of a quote from the last episode of Bojack Horseman (great show if you’ve never seen it) - “sometimes life’s a bitch and then you keep living”. Some things (often music) reminds you of the rough patches you went through in the past. Things maybe never really get better permanently, but the point is you kept on living, and maybe there’s some comfort in knowing that whatever you’re feeling now will one day just be a memory - sometimes it’s enough just to want to be alive and survive to see the story unfold.

    The lyrics to this song represent the truths in our society. A society that is blind to the real world, and a society thriving on image and the need to be wanted. People don't understand the simplicity of happiness and what it takes to lead a full life. I thank ghostpoet for making me reflect on the past and regret nothing. We can learn from this man.

      I see my comment got quiet a lot of attention off of the community, and would like to say that my uncle died a few days after the posting of that comment. He died a painless death in hospital by the side of his mother. Not sure why anyone would be dying to know, it just seemed fitting

    I just stumbled upon this. As an American I don't know why some Americans say UK hiphop is not good because of the accent. That to me is a bullshit lie. This is dope. As long as someone has lyrics, can flow on beat, metaphors, mic presence then it is dope to me.
