He is saying he is addicted to pain which he said in his song changes when he said, “ I don’t do drugs, I’m addicted to the pain tho.”

The ending feels like NF was in the booth so emotional after recording this and he just freestyled the ending to let it all out

Nooo he was live and I missed it
I went to the store about 30 minutes ago and was playing this song, the clerk was like "who you listening to?". I said "NF". The clerk went crazy. He was like "oh my God, finally someone else listens to him too." Then we got into a convo about how great NF is and how he doesn't get enough credit for how damn talented he is.
NF actually went live on Instagram the other day to talk about the mixtape. He said that this song was done right after the search and it probably would’ve been on the next album, however, he wouldn’t have it like that because he thought that it was repetitive and like the search. So, he put it on here, which is great because I think this is my favorite song on the mixtape. He also said that he added that rap part at the end after everything else, he didn’t know how to end it he didn’t like ending it without that. Great reaction!
Bro, I still can't get over how you latch onto lyrics so quickly. The fact that you can recite a line or two perfectly after one or two listens is astounding.
Support Ernest guys. We cant lose him.
I think i speak for everyone here when i say that we love how you understand pretty much everything about the songs you react to. Keep it up dude!!

NF made you look up lyrics!?!? I’ve never seen that be necessary on this channel. Props to you being the best reactor and NF for making this happen
If you seen the live NF did yesterday he said that he wrote this song and he kept holding on to it because he felt something is missing in it.. that's when he decided to add the last part.. And i just love when you started singing at 11:53 lol.. yo thanks for the videos you make.. ik you put a lot of effort in em.. i always wished i can be one of your patreon subscribers but im broke lol.. keep doing what you love ❤️

I think I remember him saying the humming in the melody was also added late and was what made the song for him. This song is so good I'm glad he held it and improved it to what we got.

I mean I could’ve guessed he was holding onto the song with the line in Clouds “Mixtapes aren't my thing, but it's been awfully exhausting Hanging onto songs this long is daunting”
Shoutout Tommee Profitt for all of NF's instrumentals🙌🏼
You’re still one of my top three on KZread bro. You respected NF with your coverage of this mixtape. You deserve much more respect.
This song is such a vibe, playing it while on a late night drive
The NF mixtape been craaazy, and ur reactions are fire. Love to see it. Who's next?
[Chorus] Drifting Watchin' the world go round World go, yeah (World go round) Listening To unfamiliar feelings and unknown sounds Unknown sounds, unknown sounds [Verse 1] Slippin' through my fingertips (Ayy), lingerin' Shoulda, woulda, coulda, where'd I put the pen? (Woah) Make a list of all my failed attempts Runnin' out of space again Highlight all the things I wish I never said (Stop) If healing makes you stronger, I'm the weakest That would mean that I would have to separate from my beliefs It's not a secret, I'm a puzzle, got a lot of missin' pieces Underneath this strong persona I put on's a kid that's screamin' Aren't these waters so decеivin'? (So deceivin') They look diffеrent, don't they? Well, at least that's how they seem to me 'Cause we just drift and drift and drift Until we see something that we define as peaceful Grab the needle, shoot reminders in my veins That people leave you while I'm driftin' [Chorus] Watchin' the world go round World go, yeah (World go round) Listening To unfamiliar feelings and unknown sounds Unknown sounds, unknown sounds [Verse 2] Lots of gossip, I've been watchin' you How you're talkin' to yourself is rude Driftin' I'm in the same boat as you Sinkin', dreamin', screamin' for some truth And (My, my) escalator's broke, I'll take the stairs, I guess Climb until I'm outta breath Questioning my every step (Woah) My train of thought is leadin' me to different tracks Positive that where I'm at is not where I should stay and that's (Why) Told you look into the mirror and say, "I love you" Convince yourself that no one in the world would ever want to Passin' by the people that have been there to support you From the get-go, disrespectful, drive you mental Might get stressful when I'm driftin' I see you in the distance Askin' me why I'm so distant, I'm convicted I'm convinced that I predict that all my wishes on my wish list won't be heard 'Cause I'm committed to the lie that feeling safe is unrealistic When I'm driftin' [Chorus] Watchin' the world go round World go, yeah (World go round) Listening To unfamiliar feelings and unknown sounds Unknown sounds, unknown sounds [Outro] Ignorant to my ignorance Tell me I'm worth it, God Give me the faith to rise and help me diversify To take a step forward, immersed in my belligerence, amplified The feelings and words collide Intensified by living a life deprived I'd rather be burned alive Than go back to thinkin' I'm insignificant (Insignificant) Every impotent moment debated can trigger it God is my witness definitive Holdin' my head up, there isn't an innocent bone in my body But that's what gives me the energy lacked To renovate, have to innovate, past intimidates Can't remain afraid
This song is straight up art ; it would be so dope if this was used for a dance performance because of the emotion and delicate piano makes a great masterpiece
Thank you for breaking down how the instrumentals really added some depth to the message.

Unreal mixtape. Best I have heard
I love that this is titled Drifting (through your mind I feel like) and the chaos of the flows, the volumes, the extra and skewed voices all paint the picture of drifting through a painfully unstable mindset and then the lyrics make that picture incredibly vivid.
The beat sounds like it could be on either one of Andy Mineo’s “The Sword” or “The Arrow” EPs

Man, I think I just realized why I watch reactions vs the videos. Specifically you as a reactor, you put words to the thoughts and feelings that think in my head but can't ever express. Thanks
Ernest on his grindddd. Big up!
One of the best songs on the mixtape.
You are the GOAT when it comes to NF reactions.
Yo this song reminds me so much of twenty one pilots, especially the ending

Dude you are masterful at breaking songs and raps down. From the instrumentals to the lyrics. You are my go to guy for everything. I've been watching you since that 1st breakdown and I am so happy that you have come this far. Excited to see how you will grow! This is definitely the perfect career path for you
Thanks for all you put into these. Helps us to really get the most out of these songs.
iv been watching your videos for like 3 years now, I'm not the best when it comes to liking and all that stuff. however having seen so many reactors out there, you are different man. your deep understanding of each artist you react to is so impressive. I appreciate the grind man and I understand the struggles that come with this type of content but keep it going. much love.
Man you're one of the best reaction & breakdown chanels.. you're so honest and acutely know what you talking about unlike others... you deserve all the support 💯
Thank you! I have been waiting for you to do this. You are the best!!!
Always knows how to breakdown a song the right way!!
⚜️ Thank you so much for reacting to this song🙏 It really hits different ❤️ RealMusic that's all we need
Thank you so much for all your reactions, they are on point. I follow a few reactors and you’ve killed this mixtape! Talk about working hard 😊appreciated fam!
YES IVE BEEN WAITINGGG
Thank you Ernest! Your breakdowns are just UNREAL! - ROLL IT ! ! !
Thank you for this!! Great reaction as always. One of the things I was excited fo when it came to the mixtape dropping was seeing all of my reactors react to it, you’re the only one that has come through so far, feel a little disappointed with the rest lol! All of your reactions have been great!!
I can just see this video with one of those "gate to gate" flight visuals, and slow motion B&W concert scenes. Just feel that so much on this track, one of my favorites for sure.
THIRSTIN 4 THE THIRD! Bruh! I came here for the NF breakdowns (which are deeper than any other reactors') but want to thank you for opening me up to other artists! You have a gift and I'm truly thankful that you're sharing it with us! Peace and God Bless you and the "fam"!
My Spotify recap this year basically was the clouds mixtape. I listened 541 times to drifting (which was my most listened to song this year) in only 8 months lmao
The dog just keeps walking in the background like “OK, Can we leave this room and go play now!” 😂
Fantastic breakdown my man. This is my favorite track off the album and I loved your thoughts on the last bit there especially how you referenced how the song would have been different if it were made on the search but since he is learning and growing the song did end with the piano, he went out strong with conviction and determination to keep pushing forward. Awesome job.
Been waiting on this one🔥🔥
Love your reactions, you always give such an amazing interpretation and it's always so on point!! Thank you for sharing this with us!! 🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
"if *healing* makes you stronger im the weakest" great reaction
This one is my favorite! You are so awesome for doing these reactions! You make my heart happy😊
Your A1 sauce bro!! Been here since your first Nf reaction!
I like songs more after watching you as it gives me a more indeph understanding within the music I love! Pure class thank you, peace✌️.
the way you break down these songs is insane. keep it up. much respect.
This song really has a TOP vibe to it which I really enjoy.
this track definitely has one of my favorite choruses and production styles next to dreams (cough* the most slept on track ever cough*). Songs like these is honestly what i live for and when those strings come in during the second verse, pure gold. also just realized at 8:48 i like the yell he has in the background, nice touch

I think this song is just so beautiful! The production and musical choices are so soothing in a weird kind of way.
Hope Ernest doing well
This one is my third favourite out of the whole mixtape. I love NF's singing voice, the piano, the production, the switch near the end, and the overall vibe. It's also relatable.
Love the analogy about drifting back down after the build up... spot on
Amazing breakdown to an amazing song thanks so much love an god bless x
You have some amazing reaction videos. I’m here to stick around
I appreciate how you break it down and understand it to a certain extent.
You have a lot to offer, love your interpretations. Great reaction. Thanks. 💗
I’ve been waiting for this one
Great song, always love your reactions brother. Keep doing what you're doing.
Watched all your mixtape reactions and now interested to see what your order of favourites are!
To be fair, when my mind is drifting in over thinking, this is the sound of my brain, at the end when I think I'm done overthinking, many thoughts just flood in and overwhelms me.
Ernest low-key killed those duet parts man.
I hit like before the video starts because Ernest never misses
this song is tied for my fav off the mixtape 🔥👌🏾
Great Commentary Reaction Breakdown to a Great Song!! ❤️

this one's probably my favorite one from the mixtape, I was hanging on the back of my seat on that last part. So heavy.
You are amazing bro, you are observant 🖤
This is BY FAR my favorite. I love em all, but just wow.
U gonna love this production....
refreshing page like crazy and yes!!
YOUR THE MAN!!!!!🔥🔥❤️
I didn't even notice the scream behind those words, in the million times I've listened to this song, until you said it and that just makes this song that much better.
Drifting and Layers are my fave tracks on this mixtape
🔥 reaction as always!
The mix tape is my favorite from him and this song is the most beautiful of them imo❤️
As always...amazing reaction!! :)
Been waiting for this one, Drifting is my favorite!
I sum times forget that you are such a big Incubus fan, as I am. This is a great piece of work from Nf.
Man never disappoints
jheez just finished the just like you reaction, and was thinking "i wonder if ernest posted a new vid" and here we are.
Didn’t think Just like you would be one of your favorites, but love it as well. 👍🏽🔥
I think this is his best lyrics on the mixtape, so impactful.
When he sings “Unfamiliar feelings and unknown sounds” he sounds just like Jon Bellion. There was a part in the beginning of the song too where he has a MGK sound as well
This one hit me to the core!!
Been waiting for this one since layers!!!! Such a VIIIIIBE!! 🔥
this one is my favorite
It's indeed crazy! I relate with these bars so much.
