    My son played this song for me 5 years ago. At the time I was at the bottom of a ten year opiate addiction. I felt all my kids pain in Nates eyes and words. It was the push I needed to finally seek treatment. I've been clean ever since. NF couldn't save his mom but he did save me and I am forever greatful. I've been a devoted fan ever since and this is the reason I feel that Nate is a prophet.

    He wrote this song when he was like 19 or 20, shortly after she died. He said in an interview that he wrote this from that little kid's perspective. He has since, as a grown man, understand her as the addict better than when he did when he was little. she gave her kids absolutely ZERO stability. They bounced between their dad, their mom & (mostly) his grandparents. He has said he gives her more grace now and has since forgiven her. There are a few great interview videos out there. One is like an hour long and is about 5 years ago or so. Thatbis the interview that he talks about forgiving her now as an adult. Great reaction guys! I absolutely LOVE NF so much!

    When Nate recorded this in the studio I’m pretty sure that he wanted everyone to leave for that last part. And from the beginning I think it was supposed to be a complete verse but Nate broke down and just cried into the mic instead. But they decided it was so emotional and fit so well in the song, so they kept it

      @@GaryHicks I agree whole heartedly, this song absolutely destroyed me. Both of my parents and my step parents are addicts. Granted most of it is alcohol, I grew up with my dad getting fked up everyday. Drinking over a case of beer and any pill that he got his hands on. Put me through hell but he was my hero, ‘why?’ Cause he is my dad. But I cried and begged him to stop a million times and I would literally get laughed at. I mean, him and his brother were fked up and fighting and a gun got involved and he ended up getting shot in the head…. And he is still alive and luckily has quit doing everything and only occasionally drinks. My mom is a bad alcoholic and me and my sister have cried and begged her to stop and it never slows down. I’m 30 years old and still cry and beg her to at least slow down cause I do not wanna lose her, especially over some damn alcohol.
      So yes, long story short from the child’s perspective at least, this song completely dismantled my entire soul. But it doesn’t mean that this song doesn’t heal. This song has saved people and people are clean and doing amazing because of this song. But just because it didn’t ‘destroy’ you doesn’t mean this song didn’t destroy someone else. But just like Gary said, I’m not saying that in a negative way at all. Sorry for the book 😅

    Its more or less things you hear from interviews and just NF himself. He talks about it in intervals. One huge thing is that this song took him i think almost 2 days to finish recording because of how hard it was. He recorded the first half, then his producer stopped, and took him to a movie, out to eat, etc. Then the very end NF asked everyone to leave the booth so he could record it.

    @matthew9626 2 года назад +81

    Something I've come to learn in my 46 years of life, is that it honestly does not matter that NF may have had a worse situation than you two. All that matters is that you went through something of your own. I've had a total shit life myself, but it doesn't matter how much or how bad. If a situation arises that is the worst thing that you've ever had to experience, then you understand. There should never be any discussion of trauma vs trauma and who had it worse. Most everyone has their own trauma of one kind or another, and even though we are all different, having gone through our trauma makes us all the same as broken souls. Love and respect to you both, and can't wait for the journey to continue!

    I was waiting for y'all to come across this one. This one hits so hard for me. My daughter is 6, and my son is 4. For almost 80% of that time I've been in and out due to my past drug use. It took me hitting a pretty serious bottom. Being incarcerated about a year, missing all the major holidays and birthdays, and having to process all of it with sober mind, for me to finally understand what I was doing. I've been out since the end of November of 2021, and it's been a no brainer turning my back to that toxic lifestyle. I'm just thankful to be able to be with my kids and celebrate birthdays and holidays with them. Not all addicts see way out, and I always pray that the next addict finds their way back from the edge. There were too many times that I should have died. This song tears me up harder than any song I know, but I listen to it to remind me of where I came from, and where I could go, should I ever let my guard down. Much love to you guys. And much love to the other addicts out there who are trying to pull themselves out of that dark place.

    This is THE song that gets me right in the feels. Every time I hear it my heart just hurts. My mother passed away from an overdose in 2015. Growing up for me was incredibly similar to how his up bringing is depicted in this video. All the emotions are raw and exactly how he explains them. Smelling marijuana reminds me of my mother, and how she would get so high from that and pills my sister had to take care of me. The remorse of having that be the way I remember my mother weighs a heavy burden. There were so many times I had to be watched while I showered because my mother was turned in to family services. She passed when I was 21. She never got to meet my three children. She never got to see me excel at my job and get so many promotions. She never got to see me being as homeowner and owning my own land. This song is spot on to how it feels. I'm so excited that you guys are understanding how great NF truly is. I cannot wait for more NF reactions. Hopefully you guys will react to some stuff off of his mix tape.

Whether it's the first time or thousandth time theyve heard it, it simultaneously tugs heartstrings that are freshly born and the old as fuck ones with deep roots. Its raw. Its disgusting. Its beautiful. And its real. I'm a single momma with 3 kids. Ive been thru more in my life than most people and that was BEFORE I had my kids. The ripple effect of trauma never really ends. Its what you do with it that matters. When I get in a dark place, I watch this video on repeat. The amount of beautiful sobbing that happens every single time you watch it, heals. It helps somehow. Thank you for going on this journey and being 100% in the dark the whole time. It makes the reactions that much more authentic and beautiful. Love you guys. I really do. Im here if you need a shoulder or a chat. I'm a pretty dope soul. And dope souls inevitably find each other. Its science. Thanks again for this. Im gonna go cry for a while and feel better after. ❤

    so my point to all this rambling is that i am thoroughly loving this channel! i had never heard of NF before, so this is my first time hearing this, and the power and emotion of this song. wow... just wow!

    You guys did a great job. This is the saving private ryan of songs… great, but devastating. This song is a testament to show the wreckage left by parents who fall into addiction. It's also a place for those children or adults with that past to have someone speak to their pain. Hopefully this also helps those who have a connection/relationship to someone who is struggling with addiction to take a stand and have an a group intervention, if not for them, than at least for their kids.

    This is the rawest emotional song I've ever heard. Hits deep every time. NF asked his producer/team to leave the studio. They continued recording and he flat out cried and talked through his emotions that you hear at the end. This is the toughest one to listen to. We promise, it gets much much better.

    I was watching some therapists react to a few of NF's songs, including this, and I saw your reaction pop up in the recommended and had to click on it as well. I've seen this reaction already but, strangely enough, coming back to you two felt like coming back to a safe space? Just seeing the both of you cry (like I had just been crying) and then listening to you just talk and joke (also my way of coping) really brought me back down from all the high emotions I was feeling and soothed my nerves again. So, thanks for that ❤‍🩹

      It's relatable for us because my son's wife left him in the middle of the night with two small children at our house 4½ years ago. She hasn't contacted us in over 2 years and we have no idea where she is. Drug related on her part... and she grew up in foster care because her parents were on drugs. We tried (when she asked) to help her... got in a good rehab, she left after 17 days. We're praying this doesn't become the kids' story 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 They are only 5½ and 8½ now.
      Give your boys a mama hug from me please. Love and hugs from Texas.

    I became paralyzed in August 2020 and have been struggling with trying to graduate, chronic pain, crippling depression, and new life style ever since. I had a hard time trying to get my parents to understand how hard it was to have my mobility and normality stripped away. We would have the same fight over and over for a year. My relationship with my mom declined and my dad blamed himself for my accident so he avoided me. It hurt because I used to be really close to them and my dad was truly a best friend. It would hurt when he’d walk past me and not even look at me.
    Towards the end of 2021 my dad and I were painting, watching movies, making fun of each other and my siblings like we used to.
    Unfortunately, on January 14th my father unexpectedly passed away from a heart attack. My family grew farther apart and now 5/8 of the people in my household suffer from depression. We no longer have my dad income but we do have 8 mouths to feed not counting out animals. I feel responsible or all the pain in my family and the panic and anxiety attacks have gotten worse to the point I can no longer console myself.
    I’ve been an NF fan for over five years and I hadn’t listened to his music for maybe three of the five but I feel as if God answered my pleas and sent me a guardian angel.
    Now NF’s songs hit a little harder after the trauma I’ve experienced. I had started loosing faith in the Lord and it scared me because without the foundation of belief, what motivation do I have to even fight the demons residing in my mind. Without hope or faith I felt nothing and the temptation to take my own life started growing too tempting. Especially after my fathers death. I am glad NF was brought back into by life because the Lord new just how he would be able to help me. I can’t wait for you guys to go on this journey too!!!

    I was abused in many ways during my childhood. My mother abandoned me after a year. This song hits home. A lot of people don't understand nf. They call him a Christian rapper when he's just a rapper who is Christian. He doesn't reject those of us like me who are atheist. We can bond with him about his pain and struggles because so many of us have had similar struggles or different pains. Things we still carry with us. He does wonders for my mental health but I know he's also looking out for him. I respect him and that's something I can't say for a lot of people especially those in the music industry.
