It's unbelievable how many people could have had much better lives, if only someone loved them and raised them with nothing but love and understanding.
David Rodriguez this comment hit me hard...because when I met my girlfriend she grew up touched on and she didn’t care about herself. She said after I came into her life I made everything better and she’s starting to respect herself now. I’m a proud young man who saved a life ❤️
Me and my girlfriend would listen to this. she passed away and everytime i hear this song i start balling. we played it at her funeral it was beautiful. I Love you Adriana.
Wow you’ve just brought tears to my eyes…idk if has anything to do with my girl passing away 4 months ago from OD, but anyways thank you for sharing 💙🙏🏽🦋
After having a mental breakdown, you empathize with the girl more and more in this video. This song soothes you, reminds you. Be gentle on yourself because you deserve love too.
I just hope this song won a Grammy.... Because this is not just a song, it's an awareness, advice, morals and guide for the female ♀️ child and also to the male ♂️ child on the right path to greatness... Lol Wayne you are a POET & a TEACHER
The saddest thing about this entire video is that, we are actually watching someone's else life right now. This should bring awareness to many of us; especially with the choices we make in life. This is truly sad but has a powerful message.
IF I CAN ONLY MAKE HIM LISTEN,this song is indeed a lesson I try all kinds off way to ask him to bring this back to the charts YESSS even in 2021 it’s a VALUE LESSON #❤️ 🌎✊❤️🖤🇳🇱!!!!
Tommy Davis this shows 2 outcomes of the choices: on one hand the girl could have become a prostitute, then on the other hand she could have become a productive member of society. So this video shows 2 outcomes of how you live your life
My mom took me to see Wayne in 2011, my first hip-hop concert ever. This song always makes me think of her. S/O everyone bumping this masterpiece in hard times. And shoutout Wayne for being a legend, he deserves all his flowers and he’s still with us. Forever will be bumping this and all his amazing records 🔥

This still makes me cry! I’m a former escort and this always brings me to tears. From 17-24 I was a solid ass escort, i have a job interview at a tech company on Monday, pray for me!
I listened to this as a kid because it sounded cool. But coming back to it now, it got me emotional to see just how much meaning the words have, and the video adds on the the effect. This is a really good song
We have to start by lifting our youth up as a country and loving them together so that they will know how to love themselves. Without love for yourself you cannot give love completely and in a way that someone else deserves and wont know what kind of love they also deserve from another. So we dont have to live through another time that our children are ever going to have to feel hatred of other's for no valid reason claiming rhetoric like race or secual orientation. We have to stop this division and hatred weve allowed ONE hateful narcissist to poison our ppl and far too many of our youth.. lets get love back in our lives an pour it into our future and get our happiness BACK!!we r running out of time .. our kids r losing their future
This song made me change my lifestyle, friends and boyfriend.. It made me see that even if I grew up in a broken family and made bad decisions.. That ain't going to define me
YOU change for the better of YOU but i hear you. Songs can mean soooo much from when you first heard them 10 years later maybe your life is good or maybe not so good but change starts with YOU
I always knew this song was about a woman who never had a chance to learn what real love is, but at the age of 22, I can now understand that it even extends to her not knowing how to love herself. And the singer isn't just a man enamored by her, it's a man who's speaking a pure and well-intentioned truth. He's encouraging her to overcome her insecurities, to not blame herself for her trauma. And that's beautiful. The music video tells a story of just how important it is for parents to love themselves and teach their children how to love. Always remember that you deserve the best of what life has to offer. You deserve good things. You deserve to be happy.
This song is so profound. The video tells such a real story. So many young women walking around with PTSD and unresolved trauma from molestation and abuse from people that should've protected them. Heartbreaking.
i was a victim of this and i wish people would include men as well im a girl but still my brother went though this but it never got any attention but i got lots
I was in Toronto recent and this album dropped. I lit up some incense, blasted the bass and vibed out hard. I stared out at the beautiful skyscrapers surrounding and hoped they all loved each other. I was into other lyrics also all for human agape and this really surpassed them. I felt like the song made me feel high on weed again. I wrote some compositions as this was a major inspiration. 😇
The video first shows a young woman deciding to not get an abortion and running out of the hospital. Her child is born a girl and lives through tough times with her single mother, due to her physically abusive, wife-beating father being in jail. When the girl is an adolescent, her mother's boyfriend molests her. When she becomes a teenager, she is promiscuous. When she became an adult, she has two children and soon becomes a stripper. A customer from the strip club pays her to have sex with him and she is diagnosed with HIV. She runs out of the hospital, like her mother at the beginning of the video. The music video then rewinds and shows a different life that the girl could have lived. Her mother would move into her own mother's house and even marry a better man, with her little daughter as flower girl with a clear view of a healthy, respectful, and loving marriage. In the end, the daughter grows up to be smarter and more mature, and graduates from high school, making her mother and grandmother proud. When she becomes an adult, she is in the same hospital again awaiting a test result. The doctor tells her she is pregnant, and she is happy and hugs her mother, thanking her for teaching her "how to love." _ _ _ NP :)
The message behind this video couldn't be any more true. Your mother is your first example of how you should live your life. Always do your best as a mother and give your child the best head start
Some persons are at a disadvantage from birth. They have to run a race meters behind and when they do reach the finish line out of breath the crowd said they are too lucky...
I never thought that I would CRY after watching a Lil Wayne video, but that was beautiful! He depicted real life and showed how deciding to love can change pain into positivity! Great performance by Lil Wayne and great video Shazam!
+Marlen Rodgers Yeah! He didn't freestyle shit. Detail wrote the song, Lil Wayne just got luck of the draw to sing it. Dumbass. I not once hated on him, I just stated a fact. Maybe if you passed the 3rd grade English, you'd have better reading comprehension.
Marlen Rodgers You don't need to use a semicolon or colon unless you're directing the reader's attention to something which is important. If I'm making a simple connection between two independent clauses, you use a comma. Had this not been important, you wouldn't have mentioned it at all if what I said about your reading comprehension meant nothing. You brought it up out of a psychological need to defend yourself. Which is not necessarily a bad thing, nobody wants to lose face in front of others or to have their reputation damaged regardless of whether company is present at the situation. Ergo, it obviously was important because I made an attack on your intelligence, which lead to a logos appeal by mentioning your ACT score, something anyone secure in their intelligence would never mention. And then returned the attack from a spiteful yet reserved tone which was palpable in your response. Again, simple psychological defense. Detail is a record producer, a writer, and an artist. If I recall, he has done a few songs.
Deep message in this video. The ability to love only truly develops when we learn to love ourselves first. Only then can we decide with whom we share intimacy and then it is to give , not to get.
Nice to meet you 🌹,I have been observing some comments lately and I find you very interesting and also clever😏😏 , looking so charming and beautiful😍😍, I will be the happiest man on Earth if only I can become friends with you 💝 I will be glad enough if only you can appreciate my special time 😊,I use in writing such text to you please do me a favor by sending me a friend request 🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹
Society may think lil wayne doesn't know anything about "love" but he has a daughter & three sons. i'm pretty sure that he knows what love is they are his defenition of love. Yeah he may sing about drugs & money & hoes but it doesn't mean he doesn't know the struggle in society. & this video is just plain beautiful because stuff like that does affect your love life & your own life. So to anybody saying all those negative comments clearly is the dumb one 💯
I'm a fan of his and don't mean any hate by this but I think it's sad that all the kids have different moms. I don't doubt the love he has for his kids, but from the looks of it he doesn't know how to love and be in love with a women.
Madison but you don't know the reason why they don't have the same mother and he loves his children very much and you don't know why they don't date anymore and stop hating
I love this song cuz the older we get and the more we learn about selves, this is one of the truest songs that involve so many males and females that have been thru exactly this. How to love is not easy and keeping love never means winning its fighting for respect and safety within that love.
This let's us know that there is always a better version of ourselves that we should strive to achieve! This also tells us that the actions of parents greatly affects their children's future.
Only song Wayne didn't even use a single swear word that's how deep this song is I just am proud of Wayne for making such a master piece !!!! Your music is my centre of strength Wayne thank u for spreading these words to us
I dont think it was underrated! People didnt really want to acknowledge lil wayne made such a masterpeice! Thats messed up! This was everything and i still love it from the carter 4
I started crying when it started rewinding.. dont we all wish that could happen? It was the little differences man.. watching her mom marry a man that loves her was the biggest part, it gave her dreams of her own wedding
May 2020 like. This line hits hard. "When you had alot of dreams that transform to visions,the fact that you saw the world affected all your decisions but it..wasnt your fault,wasnt in your intentions..."
This song 😢 It resonates with me because I try so hard and looking at all the bad things that happened to me from childhood to now and I still try even when my spirit is tired and wants to give up.
@@raegavin5948 As child not knowing your worth, or feeling worthless, will impact you even more once your older, due to the fact that the consequences for the decisions you make as an adult are 10x more impactful than they are of a child. Simply put if you think your worthless as a child, those feelings will only intensify as an adult.

A lil' louder, yeah
You had a lot of crooks try to steal your heart
Never really had luck, couldn't never figure out
How to love
How to love, mmh
You had a lot of moments that didn't last forever
Now you in a corner tryna put it together
How to love
How to love, mmh
For a second you were here, now you over there
It's hard not to stare, the way you moving your body
Like you never had a love (had a love, ayy)
Never had a love (had a love, ayy)
When you was just a youngin', your looks were so precious
But now you're grown up, so fly it's like a blessing
But you can't have a man look at you for five seconds
Without you being insecure (insecure)
You never credit yourself so when you got older
It's seems like you came back ten times over
Now you're sitting here in this damn corner
Looking through all your thoughts and looking over your shoulder
See you had a lot of crooks try to steal your heart
Never really had luck, couldn't never figure out
How to love
How to love
Mh, see you had a lot of moments that didn't last forever
Now you in this corner tryna put it together
How to love
How to love
Mh, for a second you were here, now you over there
It's hard not to stare, the way you moving your body
Like you never had a love (had a love, ayy)
had a love (had a love, ayy)
Oh, and you had a lot of dreams that transformed to visions
The fact that you saw the world affected all your decisions
But it wasn't your fault, wasn't in your intentions
To be the one here talking to me, be the one listening
But, but I admire your poppin' bottles and dippin'
Just as much as you admire bartending and strippin'
Baby, so don't be mad, nobody else trippin'
You seen a lot of crooks and them crooks still crook
You see you had a lot of crooks try to steal your heart
Never really had luck, couldn't never figure out
How to love
How to love
Mh, see you had a lot of moments that didn't last forever
Now you in this corner tryna put it together
How to love
How to love
Oh, see I just want you to know
That you deserve the best
You're beautiful (ayy), you're beautiful (ayy)
Yeah, and I want you to know
You're far from the usual (ayy), far from the usual (ayy)
You see you had a lot of crooks try to steal your heart
Never really had luck, couldn't never figure out

Bro I was 10 when I stated to listen to him
Bruh lil wayne aint a goat but he makes some great songs like this
The video first shows a young woman deciding to not get an abortion and running out of the hospital. Her child is born a girl and lives through tough times with her single mother, due to her physically abusive, wife-beating father being in jail. When the girl is an adolescent, her mother's boyfriend molests her. When she becomes a teenager, she is promiscuous. When she became an adult, she has two children and soon becomes a stripper. A customer from the strip club pays her to have sex with him and she is diagnosed with HIV. She runs out of the hospital, like her mother at the beginning of the video. The music video then rewinds and shows a different life that the girl could have lived. Her mother would move into her own mother's house and even marry a better man, with her little daughter as flower girl with a clear view of a healthy, respectful, and loving marriage. In the end, the daughter grows up to be smarter and more mature, and graduates from high school, making her mother and grandmother proud. When she becomes an adult, she is in the same hospital again awaiting a test result. The doctor tells her she is pregnant, and she is happy and hugs her mother, thanking her for teaching her "how to love."

Wayne Should’ve Won A Grammy For This Song 💯🙏🏾
Yea

KENDRICK LAMAR has been inspired by Lil Wayne . Drake has been inspired by Kanye West.
Well y'all shouldn't worry cause K.Dot gonna win grammys .
Makin Movesmc ikr
I agree
The message behind this video couldn't be any more true. Your mother is your first example of how you should live your life. Always do your best as a mother and give your child the best head start

Some persons are at a disadvantage from birth.
They have to run a race meters behind and when they do reach the finish line out of breath the crowd said they are too lucky...
OR father...some mothers die right at the start during birth, and some amazing fathers take over and raise amazing kids
@@MarkyMarkTeamAmerica yes that is true
This song really hits home for me as I look back over my life. I'm much Older now and realates to my younger self 😥💯💯
This new generation needs to listen to this song and watch the video.
I never thought that I would CRY after watching a Lil Wayne video, but that was beautiful! He depicted real life and showed how deciding to love can change pain into positivity! Great performance by Lil Wayne and great video Shazam!
So D&M
so true lil wayne is absolutely amazing and this song is perfect. sub for sub? Isaiah
Even though he didn't write it.
+Marlen Rodgers
Yeah! He didn't freestyle shit. Detail wrote the song, Lil Wayne just got luck of the draw to sing it. Dumbass.
I not once hated on him, I just stated a fact. Maybe if you passed the 3rd grade English, you'd have better reading comprehension.
Marlen Rodgers You don't need to use a semicolon or colon unless you're directing the reader's attention to something which is important. If I'm making a simple connection between two independent clauses, you use a comma. Had this not been important, you wouldn't have mentioned it at all if what I said about your reading comprehension meant nothing. You brought it up out of a psychological need to defend yourself. Which is not necessarily a bad thing, nobody wants to lose face in front of others or to have their reputation damaged regardless of whether company is present at the situation. Ergo, it obviously was important because I made an attack on your intelligence, which lead to a logos appeal by mentioning your ACT score, something anyone secure in their intelligence would never mention. And then returned the attack from a spiteful yet reserved tone which was palpable in your response. Again, simple psychological defense.
Detail is a record producer, a writer, and an artist. If I recall, he has done a few songs.
Damn put tears in my eyes almost a decade later timeless music
Took the words out of my mouth

This song hits me so much, I really hope to heal some day
This was the song when the generation still serenade in the streets. ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
Deep message in this video. The ability to love only truly develops when we learn to love ourselves first. Only then can we decide with whom we share intimacy and then it is to give , not to get.
FACTS 💯💯

Thanks
ruclips.net/video/vmVI1tYKOAc/видео.html 👌🔥🙏
Society may think lil wayne doesn't know anything about "love" but he has a daughter & three sons. i'm pretty sure that he knows what love is they are his defenition of love. Yeah he may sing about drugs & money & hoes but it doesn't mean he doesn't know the struggle in society. & this video is just plain beautiful because stuff like that does affect your love life & your own life. So to anybody saying all those negative comments clearly is the dumb one 💯
Preach bro
I'm a fan of his and don't mean any hate by this but I think it's sad that all the kids have different moms. I don't doubt the love he has for his kids, but from the looks of it he doesn't know how to love and be in love with a women.
yeah we all have different opinions.
Madison but you don't know the reason why they don't have the same mother and he loves his children very much and you don't know why they don't date anymore and stop hating
Definition dummy
I love this song cuz the older we get and the more we learn about selves, this is one of the truest songs that involve so many males and females that have been thru exactly this. How to love is not easy and keeping love never means winning its fighting for respect and safety within that love.
The biggest goat ever. I’m in my 45 I’ve listened to you since the the beginning
This let's us know that there is always a better version of ourselves that we should strive to achieve! This also tells us that the actions of parents greatly affects their children's future.
Couldn't have said it any better.😇😊☺👍💗
One of the best songs of Lil Wayne. This song is going to resurface and people are going to listen to it again after a decade from its release.
Facts 💯
Yes! This is my favorite song by him and the video is so beautiful.🥺
Real shit
Found this song via Facebook. Not much of a hip hop/ rap fan, but this song has a legit meaning behind it.
True, i still listen to it even now as if it's the first time.
I hope Lil Wayne realizes how many people he has helped with this song
Only song Wayne didn't even use a single swear word that's how deep this song is I just am proud of Wayne for making such a master piece !!!! Your music is my centre of strength Wayne thank u for spreading these words to us
Wayne didn't curse in his old shit from the 90s either
Lil wayne got hundreds of curse free songs
yea right like he wrote this...
@@ElCapi1906 he co wrote it, with his other artist " detail ". Wayne saaid it was about his daughter
@@Beezy_420 "co wrote it"
It doesn’t matter what year your in this song still lit 🔥
Right im wathcing this in 2019 and its relatible and sad very sadd
@@SasukeUchiha-wo1hs Hi:)
SO TRUE!!!!!!!!!!
Facts!!!
Kaylie Perez 2019
This song explains that behind these facade, creatives can be super intelligent.
Lil Wayne ...Legend.
Same sentence forever
2024 anyone? This is my first song from Lil Wayne that I enjoyed and they got me into his other music and I’ve been a fan ever since.
One of the most underrated and most overlooked song and music video . This goes so deep man , still here in 2019💪🏾❤️❤️
True...an amazing song!!!
The Zakia Show will never get old to me
Very True, and me times a milli!! Okayyyyy, this when Wayne was Wayne....not like the way he's been as of lately,still my boy tho...
I dont think it was underrated! People didnt really want to acknowledge lil wayne made such a masterpeice! Thats messed up! This was everything and i still love it from the carter 4
I started crying when it started rewinding.. dont we all wish that could happen? It was the little differences man.. watching her mom marry a man that loves her was the biggest part, it gave her dreams of her own wedding
Thanks for commenting this bc i didnt quiete understand what the rewind was for
True very true
Bro 😟
Chills down my spine with this song that a lot of us females can relate to and the power it holds it’s crazy the clips of where it starts
2024 you still here ? I know you will come back again and again and again
May 2020 like.
This line hits hard.
"When you had alot of dreams that transform to visions,the fact that you saw the world affected all your decisions but it..wasnt your fault,wasnt in your intentions..."
those lines grabbed me just as I read this. TYTYTY take care
This part played as I read this haha
💯
yep
Hits HARD
This song has been blanked outta my mind for years until now
Tune
The video is deep asf. Tuff.

Khalil Aziz me to bro I’m about to cry because it reminds me of the old days
Not me! I remember this song every year!
This song 😢
It resonates with me because I try so hard and looking at all the bad things that happened to me from childhood to now and I still try even when my spirit is tired and wants to give up.
This song has been my favorite since my childhood, that time I didn't really know what it meant now its an inspiration to me
When I was younger, I didn't know what he was saying so instead of singing 'how to love' I would sing "Hadala"
S C O R P I O XD Hadala
Hadalaaaaa!!
Lmfao
I laughed way to hard at this comment it came out all ugly😂😂😂
I SNORTED OMG 😂💀
“Ya never credit yourself, so when you got older. It seems like it came back ten times over.” That’s still deep..
iunnor im slow lol, could you explain me what that means?
iunnor please explain. I don’t get it.
@@raegavin5948 As child not knowing your worth, or feeling worthless, will impact you even more once your older, due to the fact that the consequences for the decisions you make as an adult are 10x more impactful than they are of a child. Simply put if you think your worthless as a child, those feelings will only intensify as an adult.
GP Free this makes more sense
@@biglan16 it really can, yeah it really can
A very beautiful song that addressed a topic that a lot of people don't like to talk about. But Lil Wayne said hold my beer 😂
This song is timeless...he nailed it.
Any 2021 guys that had this song come across their mind out of no where
Me love this song ever since I heard it the first time years ago
It still hits till this day 🔥🔥
Yup haha feeling a lil bit medicated😂💨
Glad to know I’m not the only one
