Omg. You have to go down the NF rabbit hole now!!! Quite the journey. It’s also worth noting he doesn’t curse in his music & his lyrics turn out much more creative as a result.
So the black baloons that he drags around are his "burdens" that he carries. The ones in the background are the ones that follow him no matter where he goes
Go through clouds the mixtape first. That's him showing off his skill. Then dive into the Journey (albums Mansion, Therapy Session, Perception, The Search, and finally ... Hope) all in the that order
You need to go back to the beginning of his journey. Everything from then til now is tied together. The balloons the shopping cart the ppl in white uniforms
Dude is the best and idgaf what anyone says. Nobody could hold a flame to this mans pen game. He's lyrically unparalleled, when the seriousness of how serious he is really hits you'll be feeling it just like this comments gonna hit. When the feeling of being unwell becomes real maybe then you'll really care. Clearly it went over your head, sure you listened but you aint hearing him. When he said the sales could rise, but it don't mean much when your health declines is as real as is the fact that his mom really died. If you'd listen and read between the lines you'd see hes not merely speaking, this man just prophesized. But instead of making profit spitting lies with beats designed to hypnotize you ain't hear what he said that's really wise. This man a prophet, clearly that went over the top, it's obviously something you ain't got yet. Like an inevitable future oh a shot you'd probably get, after hearing some fear about a cold you might contract and spread. Afterjng hearing some fear mongering from talking heads that you probably never thought to question. Pressure from authorities controlling information maligned with corrupt corporations. If life carries a costs to live then lets just call it a BILL. If we died as a result some ill choices and had to answer for outcomes however unfortunate, then at the pearly GATES of heaven wouldn't you look back on everything, I wonder if you'd finally get it then or would you just pretend and blame your ignorance. Then cry out to God to forgiveness. Like God please forgive me for all of my ignorance, wouldn't you feel like you're could've had some discipline. I know if God gave me the chance I'd probably do it different, I'm asking you to be a touch bit more considerate cause this is a reality of making the same choices yet again when you refused to use the God's gift of discernment. Everybodies gonna die, but dont everybody live though, I look up at the sky and wonder what are we doing down here, oh lord.
The depth of what this man is saying goes so far over the average persons head and is years ahead of even some of the bribhtsst minds in science but because he's being intentionally vague almost no one even catches his references. Examples: "Picking up the cues (Q's) right?" Another one is "its a COLD world out there kids grab your coats" & "I been looking for the antidote to crack the code". Antidotes don't crack codes...I'll leave it at that.
His best track in my opinion. This song is the ultimate bait to reel u in. This track best encompasses the mind of NF in one song. The symbolism in this is wild, to understand it you have to take the journey. U guys haven’t yet realized how brilliant NF is. U should take time outside of reactions to listen to all his tracks and watch all music videos…so much symbolism and tracks that relate or connect to previous tracks. You’ll gain even more appreciation for what he does and why he is the way he is. Each album is like a sequel to the previous. Like an HBo tv series u can’t stop watching and then can’t wait for the new season. He’s incredible. The GOAT. Mansion is his first album. To understand his story that’s a great place to start. Love the reactions. “…somethin funny going on inside my ‘house’..”……. the mansion/his brain “I’m lookin for the ‘map to hope’ u seen it?”……remember him holding the map in his song HOPE from latest album? He’s also wearing white in newest album. Everything connects!!!
Y'all are in the prime cut NF now. This song is a masterpiece and believe it or not the next one Leave Me Alone might even be better. It is the continuation of this song.
❤❤ This was filmed in iceland. He co directed it. The swing from why and his mom who passed from OD from how could you leave us. Symbolism explained: That is his mom who died on the swing per his how could you leave us single The balloons represent his burdens. He is walking away from the outcast cage from outcast single which represents his own mind. Shopping cart is a more portable version as he climbs into it at the very end of the video. He teased his upcoming album hope with the people in white. And mentioning the map to hope which he has in new hope intro single. This connects to leave me alone video He pays homage to kanye west in this hand on my head cant tell me nothing from kanyes cant tell me nothing single
I know ya didn't go in order so here's a note at the beginning NF is walking away from a cell, that's from he's previous album before this song/album the video of the song Outcast he is in a cell, so pretty much he's finally escaping his cell/ his mind and now he's in search of.....that's for ya too find out hopefully
The black ballon’s are his burdens. The all black is more of his depressed mate phase. If you look at his new stuff he wears all white which is the happiness.
This song is one of my favourites from NF. Both lyrically and musically, the video has so much meaning as well! If you know the story and his symbolism. Great reaction!
Ohh...my! You all are soo late on the "Real NF!" Real music 🎵🎶! Can't wait to see him in concert soon. He speaks the real. Not wanting to skip NO TRACKS period. NF is not to be understood by the close minded!
Have you guys done a reaction to Intro III? I was looking but couldn’t find it. PLEASE do one. By the way, new subscriber today. Love your analysis on videos from Ren and NF
I just stumbled on your channel and what can I say, instant subscriber. Great dissection of the song. That’s a powerful song too. Awesome job gentlemen, keep it up.
