    Fact: The ending was recorded like it happens in the song. There was supposed to be a 3rd verse but at the end of his second verse he had a breakdown. Asked everyone to leave the studio but leave the mics on. The "3rd Verse" is him crying at the end.

    This is the first song of NF’s that I ever heard. I lost a son to addiction two years ago and the line “I hate the way I remember you” hit me so hard because all I remember of my son is the horrible 6 years of his addiction. I pray that one day I can begin to remember my son as he was before his addiction. I know he was so much more than his addiction, every person is! I want to remember my happy, sweet and loving son.

    I thought that by her saying that this wasn't her, she was flat out denying what she put the family through. But perhaps she couldn't lie to herself and shut out the pain that way as she hoped, and that was the final straw that drove her to kill herself. That would add yet another layer to his anguish, if he held himself even slightly responsible for her suicide simply because he had tried to tell her the truth and she couldn't handle it. He shouldn't hold himself responsible, but I think that most people would, in a situation like that.

    If I'm honest the thing I want most is to see more people react to heavy nf songs when they haven't heard him before. They usually do it cause they hear he's different, get the gist of what he does, but they're still NEVER ready for the emotional weight of his lyrics, and I love seeing their eyes be opened, in a sense. And I also love the newfound respect they almost always have for him afterwards too.

    The white hat makes me think he's pointing out someone else who's darker than him. Most of his stuff is about his own mind and his own problems and he wears the dark to show it, but this is strictly about his mom and her mess. Also, the song is more like a question, right? "How Could You Leave Us?" Fact is, he didn't really know his mom that well either if he's asking the question "How Could You Leave Us?". If he did, he'd know why she left. "Them pills got you, right? Them pills got you, right?". "If you're still watchin', WHY?!". He was just a kid when it happened, not sure how old, but as a kid you don't understand what adults are doing. He'll never know his mom well enough to know why. It'll always be a hole. In "Got You On My Mind" Nate says this about his now wife, "Oh, said you lost your dad, girl I know how that feels I lost my mom, tryna deal with that still I guess we connect on our hatred for pills". That's gotta be some major common ground to connect on listening to this song, the most raw song of any he's done. I'd say "If You Want Love" is closer to this, "Hate Myself" is but it's got a different feel. Thanks for the review. You got 2 girls, I got 2 too. I'm not on drugs but did have a close call bad fall from 25' off a ladder last year, sitting in the hospital not knowing what's wrong on the inside (2 broken ribs and a cracked vertebrae) and I couldn't let my kids see me when my wife put them on video chat. I didn't want them to see me with the neck brace and the tubes and wires and needles stuck in me. Nate's mom probably thought that, she didn't want them to see her in her bad condition, but that's the addiction. If anyone is watching, work towards not repeating the pattern or starting a new 1 in your family. There is hope, just reach out. Nate said in his suicidal thoughts he "might do something different like talking to God more" in The Search. If you're addicted to drugs it's a different kind of suicide. Numb the pain to die to it. In recovery, you wake up to the pain so you can live through it. You're not just in a physical war, but a spiritual one. Love the fam.

    This one always cuts deep. I lost my father due to popping pills. Going i. And out of hospitals every few weeks because he would OD. I'm 35 now and it hurts like crazy. I dont take pain pills because of it. Your raw emotion shows me youre a wonderful father. My girl has 2 beautiful girls one 6 and one 12. Unfortunately she can no longer have kids and i always wanted one. But her kids i love like my own. Would die for. I've been in the picture for 5 going on 6 years and their dad is a major dead beat. Rips up their drawings in front of them things like that. I can't imagine a life without them. They saved my life. I suffer from depression and tried to comit suicide in the past. I can never be more greatful for the women by my side and those kids. I'm proud of you for being there for your kids. I could only hope to be as good of a dad like you man. Much love! 🙌🙏

    I came across this song about 3 years ago. My mom died from an overdose in 2015. This song has helped me cope so much. The first time I heard it, I was in disbelief because I thought I was alone. There are not enough resources for the children of drug addicts. And the resources that are out there, are extremely faith/religion based. I was struggling with religion even before my mom passed, so I was trying to find ways to cope that wasn't just telling me "she is in a better place", or "she is with God now." I needed something different. And NF's music was that for me.

    “Why do I feel like I lost something that I never had”- this part spoke to me so deeply. I didn’t have a parent in my life that was addicted but I was adopted at 9 months old. Throughout my childhood I struggled with depression because I couldn’t understand why my birth mother wasn’t there. I blamed myself for my adoption believing that she didn’t want me and it was my fault. I don’t even have a picture of her but I tore myself apart for so long thinking I wasn’t allowed to miss someone I never even met or knew the face of. I will never be able to escape the fear of being abandoned by people I love even though I’m an adult now. Sometimes I wonder if she even remembers she had me, or if she moved on and started a new family. Do I have brothers and sisters I never met?

    9:01 Nate is the oldest child, he has 2 younger sisters. Nate was about 17-18 when his mom died. (He mentioned “a lady in the corner watching us, while she’s taking notes” which we can assume if cps. Idk if he ever went to foster care) His parents divorced when he was young, and he was raised by his mother, who was an addict. She began falling in with the wrong crowd, and attracting the wrong kind of people. There was a boyfriend who started coming around, who would allegedly abuse NF and one of his sisters physically. Until his estranged (?) father took him away. I believe Nate currently has a good relationship with his bio dad.

    This song made me work on my relationship with my mom. My mom was absent for the first 7 years of my life. She migrated to the US from Mexico to work on a better future for me and my sister and left us at the hands of a loving aunt but an uncle as a predator. I was sexually abused when I was little and when she finally had enough she brought us to the US. When I heard this song when it came out it hit me when he says "why would you leave us?" Because A part of me wanted to blame her for what happened to me and ask her the same thing. It opened up wounds to the things that happened but it also helped clean my wounds. Our relationship has gotten better and I cannot even imagine what I would do when she leaves. Yes I know the song has to do with addiction and his moms death but to me certain verses he said helped me in my situation. Since then I have been his fan and wish he was more recognized for his powerful music 🎶 ❣

    Hey Knox. This week you reacted to some pretty emotional songs (Leaving Heaven and now this one) and you did a great job once again. I had tears in my eyes throughout the whole video. I personally think that the white and grey colours represent Nate's relationship with his mom. He's trying to remember the good times but unfortunately the bad memories are more present and take most of the space. That's why there's only a little bit of white. Sad, I know. I would love to see you react to Castle and Arose from Eminem. Those songs are my favourites from Revival. I think they would fit to your recent reactions. Please consider it. Take care! I hope you and your family are doing well.
