LYRICS:
It’s like
I met you at my parent’s house when I was 14
Seen you my whole life but never got to me
You’d always post in the kitchen, I knew the shelf you lived in
Above where the fridge is, but we never kicked it
Finally I decided to pull you down
Had Pac in the background, pulled the shot glasses out
Grabbed you by your neck even though we just met
Held you close, felt the fire burn my throat
Warmth like the Holy Ghost
I remember thinking, “is this real life?”
I had two and wondered what four more would feel like
Predisposed to having an obsession
Codependent before we even had a friendship
Had a dozen of you, already loved you, I couldn’t stop
Got on the metro stumbling to 3rd and Pine block
Hit the Micky D’s, puked all over the restaurant
Our first date was already running from the cops
I ride with you, lie for you
My tried and true, love I never knew
It kills me to think of a life without you
But sometimes I wonder if you want me to die too
In highschool our relationship was abusive
Addicted to being together, couldn’t control my usage
We pass out together on a stranger’s lawn
Woke up in a random car too gone to make it to my own prom
But I had to have you even though we’d pass out in bathrooms
Take a month off to show myself
I know myself, don’t need no help
Forget the pain, pouring rain
Brown bag full of guilt and shame
Mistress controlling my head
Getting arrested, not remembering anything that I said
And I knew then that I should’ve left
And I could see if I didn’t leave
You’d lead me to death but
I ride with you, lie for you
My tried and true, love I never knew
It kills me to think of a life without you
But sometimes I wonder if you want me to die too
Bitch, you killed my uncle, you’re fucking trouble
Socially acceptable and oh, so subtle
You ruined my life and I fucking loved you
Promised relief and left me with a rusty shovel and some busted rubble
Pieces of my life that you destroyed was once freedom and joy
Was now depression, being unemployed
And I knew I had to change it and face it
And checked into rehab
And 28 days later I remembered who I really was
I remembered where I’m really from
I remembered the beauty of the present moment
That you only get when you connect to the Creator
And the breath inside the chest that fully fills your lungs
I found the people with the same allergy
And what I thought was love was really just my disease
I always thought the problem was you and couldn’t believe
When I learned that the whole time my issue was me
I ride with you, lie for you
My tried and true, love I never knew
It kills me to think of a life without you
But sometimes I wonder if you want me to die too
I ride with you, lie for you
My tried and true, love I never knew
It kills me to think of a life without you
But sometimes I wonder if you want me to die too

'Gemini' dropped when I was in treatment. Here today with 4.5 years clean, I was brought right back to that therapy room where the best moments of our lives were made sitting there vibing to Macklemore. Recovery is life!

@@littleupchuckable after the military had me on so many strong opiates & the death of my fiancee I was on methadone but got tired of being tired & went to rehab.....that cliche quote " one day at a time" became my life while in the pain of withdrawal but literally I had to take it one day at a time & remember my reasons for doing it & remind myself it will get better, best thing I've ever done & the feeling of being myself again was amazing 💯 Blessings to your recovery ❤️🙏🏼🌅

@Val Bankz and to yours Val. Thank you for your service as well. I mean it. Peace.
This whole album gives off a nice melancholy vibe, I like it 💯
MACKLEMORE is a huge inspiration to me and I WILL produce a song for him one day.
One of my favorite tracks on the album. Been a fan of Macklemore since "the other side" and "The Heist"
Listened to your songs in rehab. 3.5 years later, I'm still clean and sober -and working in that same rehab!
Congratulations on your new album I love Macklemore ❤❤❤🎉
Truly my favorite artist
Posted 4hrs ago but been hearing this song for the last 10+ years.
A true Artist and true story teller, no doubt! Ben you are a gift to my ears, heart, head, and soul (as well as my eyes☺).
Coming up on two years of giving up drinking after 20+ years & it almost killed me. This song hits super hard ❤️ You can change, its all in how bad you want it. Statement doesn't hold enough weight, but the person does really have to want to change, you can do it, your life will be change for the better, I promise ❤️

Real rap bro, that set
Buen disco saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷 sigo tu musica hace mucho tiempo me ayuda a seguir adelante
My gawd... first time listening to this and unbelievable. The vibe, words, style, music... all so good and ALSO about recovery?! The man is a king. The honesty touches someone like me, recovering from it all.
this one had to be sentimental in leu of his progress with his sobriety and himself as a person. this album was definitely more of him not caring what people think.
Fallin will forever be my favorite song
Love this song mac...you did that
I'm loving the new album, but this is definitely my favorite track off of it. 👌
🎉🎉 tears bro !!! I could cry from the gratitude of your art, the tool our voice! As I used to be bumping to Royce! God given choice ! We bump to the hoist !!! Rise up bro !
Recovery ! What a discovery !
Cheers Macklemore dude. Albums eye and mind and soul opening appreciate it a lot life’s shit but some times a gem pops up and that is you dude. Stay safe
Am I alone thinking his last two albums have been fire? One of the most honest hip hop artists out there and shit is still Bangin!
Love the vibe of this album! Welcome back Mak
One day at a time
amazing❤ i appreciate you ben
You music is amazing! I remember the first time that I heard "Dance Off", and I listened for around 2 months all time, and I considered to take dance classes 🤣
I don't think people understand how relatable this is for people. Shout out to Friends of the Orchard.
This is the one! Love it Mac!
🙌🏼

im from 🇩🇿 mfirst listen is can't hold us in 2013 or 14 it's your culture 😤 your like gladiator 🥰😇
he's like Fuk a chorus
la letra es tan fuerte que no puedo evitar ponerla en español: Te conocí en casa de mis padres cuando tenía 14 años Te vi toda mi vida pero nunca llegaste a mi Siempre estabas en la cocina, yo conocía el estante donde vivías Encima de donde está la nevera, pero nunca la tocamos Finalmente decidí bajarte Tenía Pac en el fondo, sacó los vasos de chupito Te agarré por el cuello aunque acabábamos de conocernos Te sostuve cerca, sentí el fuego quemar mi garganta Calor como el Espíritu Santo Recuerdo que pensé, "¿es esto la vida real?" Tenía dos y me preguntaba cómo serían cuatro más. Predispuesto a tener una obsesión Codependiente incluso antes de tener una amistad Tuve una docena de ti, ya te amaba, no podía parar Me subí al metro dando tumbos hasta la manzana 3 y Pine Fuimos a Micky D's, vomitamos por todo el restaurante. Nuestra primera cita ya estaba huyendo de la policía Voy contigo, miento por ti Mi probado y verdadero amor que nunca conocí Me mata pensar en una vida sin ti Pero a veces me pregunto si tú también quieres que muera. En el instituto nuestra relación era abusiva Adictos a estar juntos, no podía controlar mi uso Nos desmayamos juntos en el césped de un extraño Me desperté en un coche al azar demasiado ido para llegar a mi propio baile de graduación Pero tenía que tenerte aunque nos desmayáramos en los baños Tómate un mes libre para mostrarme Me conozco, no necesito ayuda Olvida el dolor, la lluvia torrencial Bolsa marrón llena de culpa y vergüenza La amante controla mi cabeza Ser arrestado, no recordar nada de lo que dije Y supe entonces que debería haberme ido Y pude ver que si no me iba Me llevarías a la muerte pero Cabalgo contigo, miento por ti Mi probado y verdadero, amor que nunca conocí Me mata pensar en una vida sin ti Pero a veces me pregunto si quieres que muera también Perra, mataste a mi tío, eres un maldito problema. Socialmente aceptable y oh, tan sutil Arruinaste mi vida y yo te amaba. Prometiste alivio y me dejaste con una pala oxidada y algunos escombros rotos Pedazos de mi vida que destruiste, una vez fue libertad y alegría. Ahora era depresión, estar desempleado Y supe que tenía que cambiarlo y afrontarlo Y me metí en rehabilitación Y 28 días después recordé quién era realmente Recordé de dónde vengo realmente Recordé la belleza del momento presente Que sólo obtienes cuando te conectas con el Creador Y la respiración dentro del pecho que llena completamente tus pulmones Encontré a la gente con la misma alergia Y lo que pensé que era amor en realidad era sólo mi enfermedad Siempre pensé que el problema eras tú y no podía creerlo Cuando supe que todo el tiempo mi problema era yo Cabalgo contigo, miento por ti Mi probado y verdadero, amor que nunca conocí Me mata pensar en una vida sin ti Pero a veces me pregunto si quieres que muera también Cabalgo contigo, miento por ti Mi probado y verdadero, amor que nunca conocí Me mata pensar en una vida sin ti Pero a veces me pregunto si tu tambien quieres que muera
Ben I have always had such a very poor look on anyone addicted to.. I listened to you real with Steven Barrlet who would have ever thought I would rethink my views but thanks to you I can see though the fog of hate to the human behind the .... this goes without saying your music is awsome as you

Good shit bro ‼️ Keep Going and Collab wit me 🙏🏾🎯🎸
