OK so we can all agree Ren is a genius in basically every thing he does musically. But can we talk about how he brings out the best in the people he collabs with? Like I've listened to alot of his collabs' solo stuff, and while it is good, it's nothing compared to when they work with Ren. It is quite astounding really.
Me encantas, tienes un estilazo propio tanto en la calle, de artista callejoro, como en estos clips con más presupuesto. Tienes una gran admiradora en Andalucía (España). Visita pronto por aquí ❤️😀
i like both version of it. I just can choose, i just like what you do & did with this Sam Tompkins. About your flow around 2m50, damn f**king so great time in the toilet history of hip-hop... in a very nice track. You r such a REALY NICE Rapper guy. MOOOOORRrreee !!! Keep it Thats way.
@@tenshimoon Lol, just the general theme of his music does not insinuate that those who listen to it have has easy lives. And honestly I dont even remember commenting that.
To me, you are Angels of the Last Judgement. Thank you for sharing. The day the world recognizes you all is the day we find our truth and thus values as a society so we can all have our true and thus universal selves again so we can have the chance to re-integrate our consciousness and transcend back into one, by doing the work. That is what your truth means to me. You are kind of a big deal. ❤️ Thanks for our Words. BRING DIVINE FULLNESS BACK ❤️🙏
To say Ren is my favorite of all time would be an understatement. Never seen or heard anybody with such talent and yet so humble and always helping others. THANK YOU REN!!!!!!!!!!
Sam what a wonderful voice, such a lovely tone and that range. REN so happy for your success young man. Discovered your music about a week ago with Hi Ren and then Chalk Outlines......I have spent 35 years standing in the darkness, have another pill let's see how you are in a week or so! Having researched your story I admire your ability to put it all out there, you are helping a lot of people lost and confused, just wanting to feel better but have to deal with a healthcare profession driven by big pharma and their profit margins. As an artist I love your lyrics, that ability to tell a story in such a captivating way, your musicianship, your versatility and the fact nobody can put a label on you in terms of genre! Doing it your own way as an independent, very interesting, intelligent and impressive young man! At 57, with the way the music industry had gone over the last 20 years I honestly did not believe I could have my interest in music stimulated again in such an exciting way by a breakthrough talent! Thank you for putting yourself out there, it is very brave, moreover very generous. I am very excited to see your career blossom over the next 10 years. Wow good luck young man
You’re not welcome here with you’re negativity. Go spread it somewhere else. People like you are the reason humanity can’t move forward. Go get a reality check. Idiot.
Been addicted to the live version ever since I found it. Now this has a different vibe about it, I love it too! Going back and forth between the two all day! 😁 The video is so cool, great job guys!
The live version is fucking art. Don't like this mainstream vibe anywhere near as much... These dudes should just stick to their gats imo because that live recording is the best track I've heard this year, legit. Fucking maestros
[Verse 1] This Lighter don’t work, no No flame to spark my goal My nike’es laced in dirt, oh I feel like i’m treading on my own soul My headphones only working on the left side But I try to live the right life My eyes wide, and I strive To stop my demons gripping, gripping from the inside This road is dark and I can’t find the batteries for my flash light I’m blind eyed and I’m tried [verses 2] These drugs don’t work The pain it takes control A blood stained shirt I feel like I’m always being chased by the devil I tried to talk but I can’t seem to get my spoken words right And I t..t..t..t..t..t..try to keep my stutter light And this life it can be ish right Cut you like a flick knife Twist and make you sick right An I think, (maybe I’ll be better off alone) So I redirect the calls from my phone I learnt so many lessons from depression But in essence I’m just wishing the these bad thoughts were gone [Verse 3] Sometimes I get these times when it’s like time is against me In my mind I kind of mind yeah that my mind can torture me But I rhyme ‘cause when I rhyme it’s like my rhymes they set me free And I shine so bright, I shine those times these rhymes come out of me Sometimes I bleed, sometimes I crawl, sometimes I slip, sometimes I fall Sometimes times my back is up against the wall so hard that whole building could fall Sometimes I bruise sometimes I break Sometimes I’m true,sometimes I’m fake Sometimes I’m hoping for a moment when the floor would just start opening and swallow me for goodness sake I think I’m gonna break cause I ache and it’s bait I’m awake in a world full of pain superman no cape And I’m pressing the breaks but the breaks they break and I’m driving my universe into a lake And the weight, the weight of the world don’t wait We make mistakes when it’s all at stake We cook out cake we eat our cake Sometimes no time for double takes but (That’s just the way life goes sometimes) But I don’t want to end up in the gutter being battered by my troubles face down in puddle where the sun don’t shine So I’m coming and giving it back, upon the track and attacking ‘em Stacking up beats like I did with this one I pack it in And I’m praying, oh lord take this pain away
The live version is amazing, but so is this guys - there are some really tasteful production choices in here. The amount of work into writing and producing the song is insane, let along making a video of this quality! Please don't take this down when the new version comes out!
watching this after your Album, and all the wave of Love and succes , i just want to put it here; I hope you find what you were looking for when writing this song; Take it all and you are blessed. You always give me hope REN
These two are seriously dynamic together. discovered both of them less than a week ago and I have heard everything they've written. Artists like this don't come around very often.
Just put this on loop and I hope the headphones work on the right side again - amazing production and what a tune - this will be seen as a classic in the future and its timeless - all those involved with this tune Sam/Ren Video folks etc just awesome you have really got something special going on - the Ren family can only exponentially grow to vast and quick
Actually the live version is mind blowing especially when thats the first song you listen to but this is catchy AF 👌 Really appreciate your talents guys 🔥🔥🔥
I love the one performed in the pub, the one in the car park, and this. To me, they're three totally different interpretations and should not be compared but appreciated on their own merits. Kudos, Ren. Thank you for the music.
Sh*t dude...shaking my head...like you guys have been in the machine for how long 11.5 years and i find out now...via 'hi ren'...still...astonished...like a secret ...independent radio, news town crier??? *1/8/24 like oh i actually saw this, seeing comment still only one like...give the girl abreak 😁...out of the rabbit hole but something else pops up. SGP with vids poppng up...never feels old listening to ren...like phenomenal...he touches so many. love him and his music, our story. thanks god.
Woke up this morning and had so many things go wrong. And then I put my earphones in a only my left one works. That reminded me of this song so I put it on and now everything is good.
Only just discovered this duo hope you guys are gonna do more stuff together love this song and all the stuff rens doing with the big push and sam your vocal range is amazing i think people just prefer the live atmosphere and the singing of the high notes rather than this one.. Still an amazing tune so keep up the good work
I think ive listened to this song over a 1000 times but all his song resonates with me. being "depressed" for the past few years I just know how he felt going through his shit
I really love both versions, i thinks it’s not fair to say that this version is worse than the live version, since both totally go for a different vibe.
Managed to kill it boys both live and this version, not long now and you’ll be appreciated by the many, so glad I came across this beautiful specimen of pure arts.
Baby this song soeaks to me u were battling in thus u wanted tk be with the world but did u feel they would wanna be around u ir you felt like you couldnt do anything so u stayed in and out....if I'm wrong correct me....god i wish i could have taken care of u.....im in tears
My bro got me DIGGIN the live set. Can't tell you how many times I played it. Near 100 back to back, no lie. Now I've got the phones jammin here. DO MORE LIVE THO. Ren...spittin some soul, man. Love.
GREAT WORK, LOVED THIS UPGRADED SPOKEN WORD POETRY FLOW, GREAT WORK HITTIN THEM HIGH NOTES , MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT FAM, ARTIST TO ARTIST I LOVED THIS....FEEL THIS
Smashed it gents! Have been preaching this from the rooftops! Vid is spot on. Verse @ 2:50 is another level. Can't wait for you both to get the recognition you deserve. The world needs to hear this!
Stop complaining about it being 'overproduced', they are actually talented. I like this song very much and I never get bored of it, both studio and live performance!
Guys just think that in a few years we can all say that we followed Ren and Sam from the very start cause I can picture big things for these two in the future!!
You two are an incredible duo. Both of you are very unique and balance perfect on this songs. Keep making songs together whether it is acoustic or electronic or whatever you want. I am trying tou make you famous in Argentina hehe
This video has 95,203 views and I think at least 10k are mine! Wow Ren, this song is so freaking good and it will never bore me! You and Sam did an amazing job
