Heard you on sway and since then your music is from the heart and I like that, but not much of it was really my style. This song really hits the heart nice. Excellent work man.
Well done man. I love that your themes are based on real life. It helps your listeners relate in some fashion and connects the fan and the artist together.
incredible. thanks so much for creating this music from the heart. got me shaking from how hard this hits me..come play some shows in Colorado.. it would be awesome to see a Token show
“It’s even scarier when you don’t have a reason to be down” that is the most powerful line I have ever heard because it is true you feel like you have to have a reason or else you are faking it
V Priamo it makes you feel even crappier because you feel like you’re spoiled compared to others but its not good enough. It just lingers no matter what.
Braydin Youngblood Depression never disappears, it only spreads and show at terrible times. When you’re like you or me you never talk about it for fear of embarrassment for lack of reason
@@benphil4448 Just cause I can speak objectively about rappers who are in the game and not let my feelings get me blinded I immediately don't know rap? lol And you shouldn't tell nobody if belongs to rap, especially coz you prolly some white skinny nerdy kid living in his parents basement who has contributed nothing to the culture of hip hop.
+88Pizano It means some people can be happy after hard times, but for others they just get caught in the sadness. The sunlight stands for happiness, the puddles being the rain even when the sun has come out.
The last line hit me really hard. "Sometimes I wanna crush my family's so called medication look in their eyes and tell them they don't need it as long as we just have each other, but then sometimes I watch them suffer, I just wonder what happiness is."
I don't listen to rap. I'm a metalhead through and through. I bleed Metal. But ever since the first time I listened to your shit I've been hooked on you. You don't just talk about money and drugs and dancing and partying all the time. You hit home with real lyrics that mean something. This song is especially close to me, as depression is something I've dealt with my entire life. And on top of all that your flow is ridiculous. You make great stuff, man, keep doing what you're doing and you can change the world.
theres people all over the world, not just in U.S but other countries puttin out next level music. you find one that you like that only means theres a thousand possibilities of other rappers you may like or love, its a very expansive genre
Real people recognize real music. No matter the genre. I haven't heard music with this much meaning for a few years now, the fact that it came from the mind and mouth of a 17 year old just blows my mind.
This song asks the question perfectly..... We may be able to empathize with others to help them heal slightly, We need help ourselves but keep saying we are fine as the world moves we look at it through a window inside ourselves begging someone to see the person we have become before it is too late
I discovered this artist like 10 minutes ago, man his music is so deep. I have so much respect for someone who make songs that sound good but also have meaning behind them.
"How come some, appreciate the sun after the rain, while others just see the puddles as if nothing else changed" This kid is going places. He isn't the next Eminem, the next Nas, the next TechN9ne. He's the first Token.
@SavageStriker Yeah that's because he did mate, currently his comment is above the other guys but that lolomgwtfism kid made the exact same comment 2 years ago. This was stolen.
7 years ago - toke was just 18 years old and spitting dope real feel lyrics - 7 years later he’s just evolving into a lyrical genius with some amazing beats and bassssssss
RazorBeats Channel I know, joeybada$$, kendrick lamar they are also good but I mean this dude just started a career and already made a piece of art like this...
You spit fire Token. Not only that, your words are so profound and it speaks volume about sad reality. keep on spreading meaningful messages and help save the lives of many through your poetic and lyrical rhyme unlike most of the rappers these days promoting drugs, guns, violence and sex.
Yeah he really needs more fame...but I can't help it to only like 2 song..happiness and exception only I don't have a feel for the rest...keep in mind I'm not a hater just don't have a feel for the rest..😔
Ripped jacket with the stains on the surface He was the kid that everyone was happy they weren't Sitting alone invisible to every passing person Wondering what it would feel like to have a purpose He never had a childhood Forced to parent his own parents like no child should His father is a veteran drowning his memories with liquor And his mother's taking pills that doctors give her but they only make her sicker With no sibling to walk through this stuff No ends, no money, no friends, no buddies, he ain't talking enough He don't put himself out there, he's awkward too much Well, who in his life would he learn confidence from? And he sits behind me in class One day I heard crying from the back Finally I turned around and I asked What was wrong And the first time I heard his voice He said "all I know is pain, if this is life, what's the point? Show me what happiness is... His voice gloomy he looked through me he said Show me where happiness is Desperateness on his face I didn't know what to say I couldn't think Show me where happiness is He put his head down And he didn't make a sound Show me where happiness is And I just froze Like I don't even know... Perfect makeup even though she don't need the extra touch She was the girl that every other girl was jealous of Silky hair, blue eyes, thin body with Curves, but her new clothes only cover parts of it She's almost looked at like a goddess to all Attracts every pair of eyes when she walks through the hall But she's likable too, she's not the one to gossip Evident when you talk to her, she ain't ever pompous Wealthy home filled with knowledge and newness She was the youngest out of 3 book smart students And her parents were so proud, pride was all around her But I always noticed something was a little off about her She sits in front of me in class One day I noticed heavy make up on her wrist when she passed papers back After class, I approached her and I asked about it She said it don't mean I have it if I'm around it Show me where happiness is... I looked into her eyes I saw her for the first time Show me where happiness is I saw regret She walked away in a sec Her voice rang through my head Show me where happiness is I watched her walk away She became another face What she say? Show me where happiness is And I just froze Like I don't even know I don't know because I ask myself the same thing every single day But every single answer has been vague How come some appreciate the sun after the rain While others just see the puddles as if nothing has changed? And as I watch people living the life I couldn't take, I wonder if they see a way out to mentally And as I watch people who live the life I idolize, I wonder what they feel and what isn't seen As I watch my whole family take pills for depression I wonder what true happiness really means I wonder if because I'm genetically predisposed to it, that is the reason I find myself feeling weak Only sometimes, in and out I guess it's scarier when you don't have a reason to be feeling down Sometimes I just am Sometimes I just feel no one will ever understand Sometimes I wanna cry Sometimes I want to crush my family's so-called medication look in their eyes And tell them they don't need it as long we just have each other But then sometimes I watch them suffer I just wonder where happiness is Show me where happiness is ------------------- Feel free to correct me, i will fix it. ----------------
holy shit I just found out that this song is actually a story BEFORE the song "Exception", the kid @ 0:51 is the main character in the song that was released after this one :o
We are all one in the same, he merely showed us our potential....no small feat by any means. The true leaders in this world are the ones who inspire. They're essentially leading themselves, guiding them.
“As I watch people living a life I couldn’t take, I wonder if they see a way out mentally. And as I watch people living a life I idolize, I wonder what they feel and what isn’t seen” ❤
'How come some see the sun after it rains, and others look at the puddles as if nothin else changed' Token, NF, Phora, Joyner Lucas, and King lil G are taking the deep messages of hip-hop underground to whole new level. #blessed
Token i met you in Cleveland Oct 29th know you probably don't remember you probably meet a lot of people. I asked your crew why your cds are $15 and everyone else was charging $10. I wasn't trying to be dick anyways I gave you $20. I just wanted to say i listened to your whole cd, and that shits hot i even got burned when i was holding it lmao. You got a lot of dope lyrics and talent. Shit that really hits home. I'm 32 and this song takes me back to when i was in high school. Your gonna make it 4show. Your better than any of these commercialized rappers. Cause your music comes from the heart. Stay on your grind you got this shit sown up.
I hear this song usually once every couple of weeks on my playlist while driving. Every single time I hear it, (for the past 6 years or so) my vision gets blurry with tears. I dealt with a lot of trauma in my high school years with addiction/depression and this song (and ill mind of hopsin 7) helps me feel it out in a healthy way. I get a lot of relief and gratitude every time I hear this. Thanks Toke ❤
Wooow I listen to his sway in the morning freestyle but hearing this for the first time Wooow this kid is lyrically a genius rapper keep doing your thing and its cool you from Salem, MA!! I go there on occasions!! reppin MA!
music is my life and i listen to everything from tupac to bach and have heard 1000s of songs, this is probably one of only a few that actually have moved me to tears.. and im not scared of being a bitch for saying that cuz anyone who has struggled with depression and or comes from a broken home would agree with me that u can hear this song commin strait from deep inside token and not only does he spit the truth but you can just feel the emotion pouring outta him threw this song.. so ya some deep shit and yet the realest it could be, thankyou token
Chris Jacobs Or witnessing anyone go through depression and leave physical scars. Man, I've seen it too much and talked to way too many people about it. Leaves you left wondering how your psyche handles over time. I've dealt with sadness for a long time, been through some stuff, but I surrounded myself with the wrong minded people when I was younger. Misery loves company. Never brought myself to harm myself, but god damn, I've witnessed too much shit to say I'm okay when I see slit wrists or people turning to any drug for their problems. When I see scars or someone strung out, man. All I wanna do is get mad, scream at them and try to make them understand their choices effect others. At what point in time is your self destruction enough? At what point in time do you realize you don't have to give up?!
I like the tupac and biggie posters on the wall my G but on a real though, this is my first time ever having a listen to your music and i would say i'm pretty impressed. This song was so deep but yet so surreal. You earned a like and a sub my friend.
when the teacher in class say so whats happiness for y'all? everyone: a healthy family, friends, love than the teacher ask u what is happiness for u and u have to be an actor cuz u can't speak for urself u can't be real at the moment u just say the same thing but in the mean time u try to hold off ur tears cuz it would be embarrassing as a boy to cry everyone would laughing at u
Wow this was an amazing song. So true Token. Keep it up man, respect for you! Life is short, happiness to me is to know everything is loss. Live in the moment and make the best of your situations always, good vibes.
JosephNappi Drums Happiness is knowing that Jesus Christ took the payment for all my sins on the cross. The full force of Gods wrath against sin and died with it and rose again so that all I have to do is believe on Jesus work on the cross and know that I am blameless before God and now have eternal life! Amen!
This song.....feels nice and it is showing us whwt happends with bad parents or bullying,depression,ptsd,social anxiety etc....thank you for making these songs
"just cus you're around it doesn't mean you have it.."
That hit hard..
It don’t mean I have it if I’m around it*

Heard you on sway and since then your music is from the heart and I like that, but not much of it was really my style. This song really hits the heart nice. Excellent work man.
Well done man. I love that your themes are based on real life. It helps your listeners relate in some fashion and connects the fan and the artist together.
God damn dude this was beyond a dope track its fucking flawless.
incredible. thanks so much for creating this music from the heart. got me shaking from how hard this hits me..come play some shows in Colorado.. it would be awesome to see a Token show
“It’s even scarier when you don’t have a reason to be down” that is the most powerful line I have ever heard because it is true you feel like you have to have a reason or else you are faking it
V Priamo it makes you feel even crappier because you feel like you’re spoiled compared to others but its not good enough. It just lingers no matter what.
V Priamo I’ve never been able to put it into words, or even talk about it. Until I heard this song. An unknown reason keeps me from dreaming
Braydin Youngblood Depression never disappears, it only spreads and show at terrible times. When you’re like you or me you never talk about it for fear of embarrassment for lack of reason
When you have a reason you can work on it, otherwise what you gonna do?
Danm so glad I read this comment, I never knew how to explain why I'm sad. I thought I was the only one.
This isn’t a song, this is a story.
Stories are the best kinds of songs
This dude is his own person. Not the next Em, not the next Kendrick. He's the first Token.
YES! THANK YOU FOR SAYING IT. The only "next" he is, is the next Shaker of the industry. A true Token.
By the way, how the hell has nobody else thought of that MC name?? Too legit.
This is one of the realest comments I have ever seen. Respect that you had the words.
Spaß^^
Paul ulrich ayyy ein Germane 😂
NF got me back into hip hop. Artists like Token and Joyner are keeping me here.
Hopsin, jarren benton, R.A. The rugged man, tech n9ne and others are good too
Fuck yeah man
@@benphil4448 Rugged man is old and nothing special, Tech n9ne is not for everybody,Hopsin is great tho

"How come some appreciate the sun after the rain?
While others stare at the puddles as if nothing has changed."
Yo dude, that's so good.
because its always sunny in Philadelphia
I don't entirely understand what he's trying to say by that. could you explain it?
+88Pizano It means some people can be happy after hard times, but for others they just get caught in the sadness.
The sunlight stands for happiness, the puddles being the rain even when the sun has come out.
Oh I gotcha. Dam thats awesome. Thanks man. I appreciate it.
yoo i played that like 4 times
Damn kid, you almost made a grown man cry
Almost? I shed a few tears man

I've literally discovered Token today. What an artist 🎨. Inspiring.
I found him today, now I won't rest until I've heard all of his shit.
Just found him and he's from my home town. Shits wild. Small world
Found him today
I found him like 2 years ago before starting to like bullshit lyrics rap with awesome beats... kinda sad
Same.
The last line hit me really hard. "Sometimes I wanna crush my family's so called medication look in their eyes and tell them they don't need it as long as we just have each other, but then sometimes I watch them suffer, I just wonder what happiness is."
I feel it
bbane?
FaZe Swan Ayy hey Swan
SWAN!!!!
Faze sucks optic the shit
Swan absolute legend
"He looked through me" really is a great way to say it , its powerful to see the emptiness in their eyes

Check out Joyner Lucas as well.
You can also check out Chris Webby (his youtube channel is "ForTheBurbs") who spits upon the same skill level and has good content.

I fuck with Token, You can feel his heart when he raps.

Perfect comment for a token video. I'll allow for it.
Nastolgia is the only kind of happiness i got left.
WHY IS THIS SO FACTS
Damn.....
I Feel it. Melancholy is a strange thing sad happiness feels theraputic

I don't know why but i never got this much goose bumps from a rapper.... wow!

Except for big rappers like Tech N9ne, Em and so on, this dude really hits a spot which just makes you think. And the goose bumps, can't forget those!
AlexoTv Hopsin Is good

+Barry Kent being surrounded by happy circumstances (or having a "perfect" life") doesn't inherently mean you're happy.
The make up is to cover up self harm wounds.
Killer way to close that verse man
Ripped jacket with the stains on the surface
He was the kid that everyone was happy they weren't
Sitting alone invisible to every passing person
Wondering what it would feel like to have a purpose
He never had a childhood
Forced to parent his own parents like no child should
His father is a veteran drowning his memories with liquor
And his mother's taking pills that doctors give her but they only make her sicker
With no sibling to walk through this stuff
No ends, no money, no friends, no buddies, he ain't talking enough
He don't put himself out there, he's awkward too much
Well, who in his life would he learn confidence from?
And he sits behind me in class
One day I heard crying from the back
Finally I turned around and I asked
What was wrong
And the first time I heard his voice
He said "all I know is pain, if this is life, what's the point?
Show me what happiness is...
His voice gloomy he looked through me he said
Show me where happiness is
Desperateness on his face
I didn't know what to say
I couldn't think
Show me where happiness is
He put his head down
And he didn't make a sound
Show me where happiness is
And I just froze
Like I don't even know...
Perfect makeup even though she don't need the extra touch
She was the girl that every other girl was jealous of
Silky hair, blue eyes, thin body with
Curves, but her new clothes only cover parts of it
She's almost looked at like a goddess to all
Attracts every pair of eyes when she walks through the hall
But she's likable too, she's not the one to gossip
Evident when you talk to her, she ain't ever pompous
Wealthy home filled with knowledge and newness
She was the youngest out of 3 book smart students
And her parents were so proud, pride was all around her
But I always noticed something was a little off about her
She sits in front of me in class
One day I noticed heavy make up on her wrist when she passed papers back
After class, I approached her and I asked about it
She said it don't mean I have it if I'm around it
Show me where happiness is...
I looked into her eyes
I saw her for the first time
Show me where happiness is
I saw regret
She walked away in a sec
Her voice rang through my head
Show me where happiness is
I watched her walk away
She became another face
What she say?
Show me where happiness is
And I just froze
Like I don't even know
I don't know because I ask myself the same thing every single day
But every single answer has been vague
How come some appreciate the sun after the rain
While others just see the puddles as if nothing has changed?
And as I watch people living the life I couldn't take, I wonder if they see a way out to mentally
And as I watch people who live the life I idolize, I wonder what they feel and what isn't seen
As I watch my whole family take pills for depression I wonder what true happiness really means
I wonder if because I'm genetically predisposed to it, that is the reason I find myself feeling weak
Only sometimes, in and out
I guess it's scarier when you don't have a reason to be feeling down
Sometimes I just am
Sometimes I just feel no one will ever understand
Sometimes I wanna cry
Sometimes I want to crush my family's so-called medication look in their eyes
And tell them they don't need it as long we just have each other
But then sometimes I watch them suffer
I just wonder where happiness is
Show me where happiness is
------------------- Feel free to correct me, i will fix it. ----------------
Only problem I saw was that it didnt say where, instead it was What
Elegant Sean send me that
I wish we had more people like you man honestly I appreciate you so much keep doing you♥️
holy shit I just found out that this song is actually a story BEFORE the song "Exception", the kid @ 0:51 is the main character in the song that was released after this one :o

no he was not talking about token
That middle verse was crazy 🔥
It amazes me how we're like about the same age. It makes me think I can actually do something with my life.
“I guess it’s scarier when you don’t a reason to be feeling down.” Damn, that line hit me hard.
I love this . rather than fancy cars and weed his music videos tell a story. that's what true rap is about
Man I love the message of this song, everyone has their struggles rich or poor, happy or sad, great song and amazing message 👌🏼.
happy? if u struggle when u are happy are u then really happy? :)
Yeah actually. It's just a different the of struggle. Don't take things out of context.
This guy's a fucking genious!
“As I watch people living a life I couldn’t take, I wonder if they see a way out mentally. And as I watch people living a life I idolize, I wonder what they feel and what isn’t seen” ❤

anthony Gonzalez he's been grinding for a good 4 years now, but he's very young, so I guess he's new
“All I know is pain”
Damn
heard this song on the hopsin tour in San Diego. beat sounds way harder live
I've got some Sony headphones on those work good to hear songs that slap
when he said... “it don’t mean i have it cuz i’m around it show me what happiness is..” that shit gave me chills
My team and I love Token and have always been inspired by his amazing story-telling rap
Token is a gifted rapper.
+Token you're like the guy I would hang out with. You seem really cool. You're probably popular but also care for everyone's life.
VeMonZModZ like my mother once told my sister. “Don’t date the life of the party. Date the one that makes sure the life of the party gets home”
This whole song plays off the fact that happiness is subjective. Nobody can choose that for you. You and only you knows what makes you happy
ive been anxiously waiting for the release of this song and token u did not disappoint 💕✊
aside from great music your videos are becoming better as u grow
_show me what _*_happiness_*_ is_
Damn, this is deep. Can't stop listening Token, he is so good.
"all ik is pain if this is life what's the point"
I hear this song usually once every couple of weeks on my playlist while driving. Every single time I hear it, (for the past 6 years or so) my vision gets blurry with tears. I dealt with a lot of trauma in my high school years with addiction/depression and this song (and ill mind of hopsin 7) helps me feel it out in a healthy way. I get a lot of relief and gratitude every time I hear this. Thanks Toke ❤
"Are you single?"
*"NO, I'M TOKEN"*
This gave me goosebumps, Wow!
This is something else dude keep at it don’t stop
“Show me what happiness is”
“don’t mean i have it if i’m around it, show me what happiness is” that hit me hard.
Token & Joyner are the greatest story-telling rappers of all time.
Bruh this shit made me cry, this is such a good song! 🖤😭
Yo... this shit made me reevaluate my whole high school years...
Token will hands down be amongst the greatest of all time. And he's still just 22.
FUCK YES TOKEN!
Fuck bro that's deep as'f man!
+Dylan games I dont know you or I haven't started the song but we have the name so yeah
Wooow I listen to his sway in the morning freestyle but hearing this for the first time Wooow this kid is lyrically a genius rapper keep doing your thing and its cool you from Salem, MA!! I go there on occasions!! reppin MA!
music is my life and i listen to everything from tupac to bach and have heard 1000s of songs, this is probably one of only a few that actually have moved me to tears.. and im not scared of being a bitch for saying that cuz anyone who has struggled with depression and or comes from a broken home would agree with me that u can hear this song commin strait from deep inside token and not only does he spit the truth but you can just feel the emotion pouring outta him threw this song.. so ya some deep shit and yet the realest it could be, thankyou token
Chris Jacobs Or witnessing anyone go through depression and leave physical scars. Man, I've seen it too much and talked to way too many people about it. Leaves you left wondering how your psyche handles over time. I've dealt with sadness for a long time, been through some stuff, but I surrounded myself with the wrong minded people when I was younger. Misery loves company. Never brought myself to harm myself, but god damn, I've witnessed too much shit to say I'm okay when I see slit wrists or people turning to any drug for their problems. When I see scars or someone strung out, man. All I wanna do is get mad, scream at them and try to make them understand their choices effect others. At what point in time is your self destruction enough? At what point in time do you realize you don't have to give up?!
god dam both your comments almost made me cry
I was drowning in tears from nostalgia watching this until I see Dewey walking down the street thinking he’s came so far from Malcom in the Middle…
straigggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggght fire
I like the tupac and biggie posters on the wall my G but on a real though, this is my first time ever having a listen to your music and i would say i'm pretty impressed. This song was so deep but yet so surreal. You earned a like and a sub my friend.
I like him cuz he rap about realility
3:00 “I guess it’s scarrier when u don’t have a reason to be feeling down” hit me hard
Gives me goosebumps every time
when the teacher in class say
so whats happiness for y'all?
everyone: a healthy family, friends, love
than the teacher ask u what is happiness for u and u have to be an actor cuz u can't speak for urself u can't be real at the moment u just say the same thing but in the mean time u try to hold off ur tears cuz it would be embarrassing as a boy to cry everyone would laughing at u
damn bro...😔😔😔 this is relatable af... Its the worst feeling ever
This song puts chills down my spine
Gabriel Myers-tinney same
This guy is so fricking GOOD
fucking* GOOD
just say it fam, we won't snitch
Happiness is a person like you showing us we're not the only messed up ones' happiness is listening to token break it down
Wow this was an amazing song. So true Token.
Keep it up man, respect for you!
Life is short, happiness to me is to know everything is loss. Live in the moment and make the best of your situations always, good vibes.
I hate myself
JosephNappi Drums Happiness is knowing that Jesus Christ took the payment for all my sins on the cross. The full force of Gods wrath against sin and died with it and rose again so that all I have to do is believe on Jesus work on the cross and know that I am blameless before God and now have eternal life! Amen!
Put more of your music on Spotify!! This song is crazy!
We really Should take a moment to praise token for this masterpiece ❣️
