This is one song that helped me complete an Associates, Bachelors and Masters degree, while working full-time, and taking care of family. I never faltered. Thank you Aloe for timeless music with depth.
Song hit different when you Doing what is suppose to be done and not passing the buck. This should be on the soundtrack for them Boyz/men Who are about that life.
That’s why songs such as this are timeless and remembered like in other decades as opposed to the shite served up for the most part in pop for the last 20 years.
This song was played at my dads funeral almost 5 years ago now. Still to this day when I hear it I think of him and how unassuming and cool he was. He was the man. A true gentlemen with no prejudices ♥️
Aloe Blacc... Many think of him as a great singer or an inspiration. But for me he is my savior. He single handedly is the reason i’m still here today cooking up curry for my loved ones. The passing of all family in the small timid age of 10 left me heartbroken and homeless with no directions on how to survive in this big harsh world. But an angelic voice allowed me to stay on my feet and not surrender to an endless poverished cycle they had been haunting the rakesh legacy for centuries, and that voice is none other than Aloe Blacc. His songwritings and other forms of musical endeavors built me to be the man i am today. He taught me more about life in this single song than any education or teacher ever has. He guided me to book a flight to America at the age of 11 and enroll in school. I spent my nights on the street studying while other kids around me played with their friends. I became Valedictorian and was gifted with the opportunity to go to Harvard Law School for free. Again i was Valedictorian in Harvard. flash forward to 5 years later I am living in a penthouse with 2 wives and over 400,000$ salary yearly. I guess what i’m trying to say is a Aloe Blacc are akin in the fact the we both are The Man
Thursday April 11, 2024 I enjoyed listening to the man in 1st grade so much. I watched this music video on channel 1799 on fios tv by Verizon. When I was biking at the Fort Lauderdale beach in Florida back in December 2023 (4 months ago) the man was playing in one of the restaurants.
This song just made me cry. I have 3 sons, this makes me want to grow them stronger. It also makes me believe more in myself. Blessings to everyone ❤❤❤

Yes songs that we used to listen in a long time some legendaries others that we didn't really used to care that much cause we were younger or didn't feel it back then but the lyrics or instrumental just rondomly hit your toughts and gets stuck in your head so now you have to look for them...
@Der Raabe Hmmm I feel the exact same way... I just thought of this song a few minutes ago and decided to listen to it again.... And now, I'm really glad I did because it's quite a uplifting song and I also don't wanna forget about this song neither... So ya..
When you failed 8th grade twice, when your father goes MIA, when you drop out in 11th grade than get back up the next year & attend collage this time around. And still today this song keeps me moving
As a football player and ay young man who has had his heart broken as a junior in high school right not, i never knew how much i needed this song, more how much it made me happy. I feel like that mh when i hear this!!!!
I am a 59 year old white woman..a nurse ..spent years being told my administration that i should spend less time with patients...love this song..i save lives i help lives i am the man!
RIP Kobe Bryant and Chadwick Boseman. The Black Mamba and The Black Panther. Despite their tragic and premature deaths, this song is definitely a tribute to their legacies. May the Lord rest their Souls.🙏🏾
The video is a story and I love it. I'm not black but I can feel their pain as well as their power. Honestly, black people have an amazing history and some great figures
Your comment is poetic and very kind. Prayers for you and your culture as well as we all struggle to love, learn, appreciate, and celebrate one another.
Im from Argentina and maybe im wrong but Malcolm X was very separatist, but of course he was a great fighter against racism, but i prefer luther king, he wanted a union between white and afroamerican people. I repeat maybe im wrong.
+Mah Oma I consider both as different approaches of outcry against the pain and suffering that African Americans were feeling. I think that when oppressed, there are times when a more aggressive approach is necessary; however, my faith in God encourages that I love rather than react aggressively. Love casts out fear and hate. With my own personal experiences with racism, being loving isn't always easy...like at all. But when I choose to love unconditionally, I see God move mightily. Viva Argentina! Bonita pais!
Currently studying a bachelor of Software Engineering, Every time I do a coding assignment and fix a significant bug/issue, I play this song in rejoice. I will be doing the exact same once I graduate God Willing 🙏.

@vanity1180 I think it's going well actually thank you very much for asking. I got a new job and it's slowly turning around. I really appreciate your positivity during that rough time.. you have a friend in me
youre gonna make it. Trust me. So so many people have been in horrendous situations and mental states. But still, they struggled onwards, and lived a life they can be proud of, through sheer work and willpower. Pick up yourself up, and show your past self that it was wrong for almost giving up. Show the universe that out of neutron stars, gamma bursts, black holes and all that crap, the most powerful energy source that will ever exist is the indomitable human spirit. Good luck
YESSS gurl i agree . He is Amazing and this song.. God i love it. I walk down the street with head phones on a sunny day and u should see me! Idgaf i dance and sing walk w that stride. Life is too short. 🤗

Man.. this song came out after I did the hardest thing that Ive ever done.. like a month later. And I remember listening to it on repeat and watching this video. This video is 9 years old, I can’t believe it’s been that long, im still here ❤️
They played this song @ my work today. It brought a smile to my face. This will always be one of my favorites. This song goes out to anyone who was down in the dumps for so long and is finally happy now
Just this year I lost my pops, my mother in law (1 week apart), my cousin, my uncle, cousin in law, been in 4 car accidents, and broke my leg in 2 places, broke my ankle in 2 places and dislocated my foot & ankle. I’m still going strong and I have God & my lady on my side. This year has been a rough one but God got me cause despite seizures, strokes, heart surgery, deaths, & accidents, I’m the MAN! 💯

That’s why songs such as this are timeless and remembered like in other decades as opposed to the shite served up for the most part in pop for the last 20 years.
Because the main hook was taken from an Elton John song "Your Song"
Song brings a smile to my face. Much love to all.

I'll be the preacher you be the confession
I'll be the quick relief to all your stressing (this is my world)
It's a thin line between love and hate
Is you really real or is you really fake
I'm a solider standing on my feet
No surrender and I won't retreat (this is my world)
Stand up now and face the sun
Won't hide my tail or turn and run
It's time to do what must be done
Be a king when kingdom comes

When you graduated and you see that one teacher that you never liked
I can relate.
Me in middle school when they had the “middle school graduation”
Accurate especially when u find u tower over them literally
@@sirshrulu3722 in many countries there is only one graduation when you finish your university degree, then masters&PHD but in the US, you people even graduate from nursery school
@@KIM-xl6zs it was so dumb I thought I was so cool and smart for graduating meanwhile there’s people in other countries who need near straight As to graduate from a medical school lol
Man.. this song came out after I did the hardest thing that Ive ever done.. like a month later. And I remember listening to it on repeat and watching this video. This video is 9 years old, I can’t believe it’s been that long, im still here ❤️
Doing the hardest thing that has ever done wow before the song came out that must be amazing
there is always something so calming with his voice, honestly calms me down
Me too ❤
Me three
Happy new years 🎉.

ouibscf dadade12 No it’s just people hate when artists flex in music videos. It’s a song after all not a car show.
@OG Message Show and it makes the song 100 better
So?
They played this song @ my work today. It brought a smile to my face. This will always be one of my favorites. This song goes out to anyone who was down in the dumps for so long and is finally happy now
