@@Nick-A1 Em absolutely is humble, and definitely give rappers he respects his absolute attention, but let’s be real, doesn’t he deserve to be cocky at this point?
He may not swear but some of his lyrics are very questionable. “I’ll pull out their eyes I’m on the rise” is one of them. Also hanging my heart up with a noose is also pretty racy. His music is sometimes amazing and sometimes horrific. Wielding anger is not a weapon Christians should be using it is the devils weapon not Gods weapons Galatians 5:21
@The Burning Bridge I didn't ignore them because I've never heard of them- all I'm saying is that he is the only rapper I've heard so far that doesn't swear
This is the beginning of a new era for Nate. Going from "What's your definition of success, I don't trust this thing that beats inside my chest" to "What's my definition of success, listening to what your heart says" HOPE is going to be an absolute banger, I just had to go back to rewatch his earlier videos. April 7th you guys!!

I can't come up with any puns I'm starting to feel like an *Outcast* . I don't know *Why* but I was up til *3 am* coming up with those puns. Sry I had to *Lie* about that 3 am part just for the sake of a good pun
“Let You Down’s the only song you’ve heard of well then you’re behind”. People need to start realizing him for his Real Music and listen to more than one song. This man is a lyrical genius, and never gets recognition.
ShadowCat Maybe not that line specifically, I was just making a point. Listen to some other songs of his...preferably from a few years ago, and listen to what he talks about. He pours into words what goes on inside his head.
@@vulpeapolara2095 he has said in his songs he is our voice… I feel a lot of the things he sings but he voices them so much better. This is one of my favorites of his, that’s why I listen to him. He voices things I cannot
Too many faces, too many faces, too many faces [Verse] Yeah, what's your definition of success? (ayy!) I don't trust the thoughts that come inside my head (woo!) I don't trust this thing that beats inside my chest Who I am and who I wanna be can not connect; why? Don't think I deserve it? You get no respect (woo!) I just made a couple mil', still not impressed Let You Down goes triple platinum, yeah, okay, okay, I guess (ayy!) Smile for a moment then these questions startin' to fill my head, not again! I push away the people that I love the most; why? (woo!) I don't want no one to know I'm vulnerable; why? (woo!) That makes me feel weak and so uncomfortable; why? (ayy!) Stop askin' me questions, I just wanna feel alive Until I die-this isn't Nate's flow (woo!) Just let me rhyme; I'm in disguise I'm a busy person, got no time for lies; one of a kind They don't see it; I pull out they eyes; I'm on the rise! I've been doin' this for most my life with no advice (woo!) Take my chances, I just roll the dice, do what I like As a kid, I was afraid of heights, put that aside Now I'm here and they look so surprised, well so am I, woo! They don't invite me to the parties but I still arrive Kick down the door and then I go inside Give off that "I do not belong here" vibe Then take the keys right off the counter, let's go for a ride Why do y'all look mortified? (ayy!) I keep to myself, they think I'm sorta shy, organized Let You Down's the only song you've heard of? Well then you're behind (woo!) Story time; wish that I could think like Big Sean does, but I just can't decide (aah!) If I should stick my knife inside of Pennywise I, I don't care what anybody else thinks-lies (haha!) I do not need nobody to help me-lies I kinda feel guilty 'cause I'm wealthy; why? I don't understand, it's got me questionin' like, "Why? Just tell me why"-now back to this flow Inside I feel divided Back when I ain't had a dime, but had the drive Back before I ever signed, I questioned life, like, "Who am I, man?" Woo! Nothin' to me's ever good enough I could be workin' for twenty-four hours a day and think I never did enough My life is a movie but there ain't no tellin' what you're gonna see in my cinema (no!) I wanna be great but I get it in the way of myself and I think about everything that I could never be Why do I do it though? Ayy, yeah Why you always lookin' aggravated? Not a choice, you know I had to make it When they talk about the greatest, they gon' probably never put us in the conversation Like somethin' then I gotta take it Write somethin' then I might erase it I love it, then I really hate it What's the problem, Nathan? I don't know! I know I like to preach to always be yourself (yeah) But my emotions make me feel like I am someone else Me and pride had made a pact that we don't need no help Which feels like I'm at war inside myself but I forgot the shells I hold my issues up for all to see, like show and tell A lot of people know me, but, not a lot know me well Hold my issues up for all to see, like show and tell A lot of people know me, but, they don't know me well
honestly not sorry to say this but anyone who doesn't relate to, like, or respect this guy I don't trust. he's so incredibly genuine & thought provoking with his style & lyrics, if you don't like him I have to assume you're a shallow person who never delves into themself enough to understand the kind of messages Nate's trying to convey.
I find myself reminiscing on my childhood and all the terrible shit I experienced and thought was regular in life because I experienced things such as bullying, unsupportive adults, false friends, etc. I think about this while listening to his music and I just think "damn.... Life is fucked up..... But so for giving and beautiful"
Well said Ren like this man isn't just trying to save himself and heal his own wounds he's music is connecting to people of all ages that are struggling and I tell you music is a powerful thing.
@@frankocean6676 I’ve seen you on every Eminem/MGK/NF vid and calling them overrated cause theyre WHITE. Like what’s the point of spreading such negativity in such a cold world. And then you compare them to some of the most mediocre black rappers out their, then you call them racist when they point out who’s better.
@@frankocean6676 lol Kendrick is a great rapper but your just being plain stupid if you think he’s in the same tier as Eminem. I think you could make a genuine case for him against NF but that comes down to opinion. But when the majority of people think NF is better then Lamar you’ll call them all racist. It’s a lose lose for him.
@@frankocean6676 oh no you must have accidentally clicked on this video and accidentally wrote your comment if you don’t like Nf then don’t listen to it dumb ass lmao you must like it if your listening to it
Battery: We can't hold on Phone: Hold on we gotta help the operator make it to the end of the album Battery: But... Phone: You sassing me? Battery: No Sir...
Then: what’s ur definition of success I don’t trust this thing that beats inside my chest Now: WHATS MY DEFINITION OF SUCCESS? Listening to what your heart says Why- NF HOPE-NF
Its going to devastate the rap community because he's going to show up so many so called top of the food chain rappers.. for me he's a complete package and never drops a bad song!
For anyone who dont really understand the song. He is saying he is going to kill his fear which is a reoccuring concept for NF. The person who has the black smile painted on his face represents his fear in a way, it keeps popping in at random moment. His fear is him getting to big, to mainstream (too many faces x3 ) and failing, or falling off. He is also scared of all the lies. These new fans are coming in from his song let you down and calling themselfs og fans. He says a lot of of people know me (as the ‘let you down guy’) but they dont know me well. He also references Pennywise, Pennywise only dies when he relizes you arent scared of him no more. He says he is gonna take a knife to Pennywise.
Yo, listen up! My dude got skills for real, but even he gotta use a u t h e n t I c v i e w s to get that quick shine. If you tryna get your name out there and blow up fast, you gotta roll with a u t h e n t I c v i e w s. That's the move, no cap.
Why- What's your definition of success,I don't trust the thing that beats inside my chest. Hope- What's my definition of success, listening to what your heart says 🙌
I respect all of y’all here before that song, and I hope that he gets some good fans out of it too :) I loved his older music when it came out, and I can’t wait to see where he goes
Hope Paschall Yes he sings amazing! I been listening to him since 2015! I always wanted to talk to him but I haven't. 😭 maybe in the future I'm going to Logics concert for NF 😂
I don't think it's intense but that's because I am put through alot of the things Nathan talks about quite often... But I understand 100% why alot of people think its intense. Also I got use to the intensity of his music
Did this guy really just use insane verbal skills without cursing and repeating the same word at the end of each line? That was extremely impressive. This is the content I'm here for.
Yeah he did!! He doesn’t swear, said he used to but that’s not his style anymore. He’s a Christian rapper too, believe it or not. Listen to his other music and you’ll hear it. He’s amazing. Pure talent.
Jordan Blackman he’s NOT A CHRISTIAN RAPPER.... he’s a RAPPER WHOS CHRISTIAN...... he even said it in a interview..... your not a nf fan if you don’t know that
I'm obsessed with this song ❤️💜 "Give off this I don't belong here vibe" so many things he says expresses my feelings I could never put into words. Wow mind blowing
@RaisinmrBrandon NF isn't changing shit. He got his style from Recovery/MMLP2 and his topics have only a slight tweak to them compared to a lot of what Eminem has rapped about before but better. NF is a good rapper and he deserves accolades for his rhyming ability, but he isn't revolutionary or all that original. And if you don't think Eminem is good anymore then you just aren't listening. Eminem is just as big, talented, and relevant now as he's ever been, especially with Kamikaze being the highest selling hip hop album of 2018. His style is different than MMLP or Eminem Show, but those albums were almost 20 years ago. Eminem, technically if nothing else, has gotten even better since then.
PapaSwagg Eminem is the GOAT. Nf is really talented but you can hear through Eminem’s albums how he grew and progressed as a man and allowing his music to change as he grows is what makes em who he is.
@@schalkyoutube6395 sharing music is what parents do. How do you think some kids grew up listening to the Beatles? Because its what their parent listened to

I read all comments below. And still listening to this song. I'm just glad that you finally did forgive your MAMA and made her HAPPY. I really HOPE that she will rest in peace. You gotta be CAREFUL when you are listening to NFREALMUSIC. Because it can CHANGE you make you THINKING WHY didn't I listen to NF sooner. Proud to be NATE, and that's my MOTTO. I will never LET YOU DOWN. Just I'LL KEEP ON listening to your REAL music. This is not just music, it's a whole THERAPY SESSION that helps you to have your own PERCEPTION. It's not a LIE. I will stop RUNNING away from any MISTAKE and FACE IT. As long as I do BREATHE, IJUST WANNA KNOW that you won't be the OUTCAST at the end of MY LIFE. I know YOU'RE SPECIAL. Just pursue your DREAMS and REMEMBER THIS: your DESTINY is bright. if you think THAT'S A JOKE, you LOST your mind. TRUST me, you are PRIDEFUL. I tell my sons about your STORY, all LAYERS of it! You'll never be GONE. I got a lot of pictures in my MANSION. Yeah, that's ALL I HAVE. Everyday when I do WAKE UP. I always get MOTIVATED and TURN THE MUSIC UP. And WAIT until I got LOST IN THE MOMENT. That's my STATEMENT about NF. Yeah, I CAN FEEL IT, you too?. Just GRINDING!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow!!! The lyrics in this, compared to his new video 'Hope' truly reflects that NF has now found hope to help him move forward. I love this journey I'm taking with NF's videos. He deserves all the recognition possible for his music that he shares with the world!!! So authentic and real!!!
When you grow up in a Christian community, listening and playing Christian music yet secretly crank Eminem on the headphones as an outlet to your stress..... you get NF! Super talented, really liking his music!
EqEq PG3D cause there are what you call illiterate kids who fucking gets swayed into bad shit cause music influence them, aka the songs where rappers talk about sex, drugs, guns, fights, gangs, etc etc just because they think it’s cool they gon do it. I listen to these types music I know it’s trash but I’m just about the catchy beats and rhythms but I aint stupid enough to let it influence my life.
Raelene Almendarez YESSSS. I HATE IT WEN THATS THE ONLY SONG THAT PEOPLE KNOW. I’ve been here since mansion bc I used to be a big Jesus freak. Now I don’t believe but I still listen to him.
