- This brings heavy content to a whole new level. If you're struggling with self-harm, there is help available. Find the courage to be willing to reach out for help. I struggled with releasing this reaction, but fell that this is incredibly important. You are LOVED.
Joyner is a great story teller. "Ross Cappichioni" is a great example.
p.s. The guy on the couch and crying over the casket is Joyner
Ross cappichioni is a great request and is based on a true story highly recommend
I was coming to recommend that song, story telling is joyners biggest strength and I feel like that song and this one show it perfectly.
It’s not for the soft hearted though
Facts same here. 🔥
U have to play this I'm a new viewer u need to play this it's a true story please
Joyner is an incredible storyteller. I'd recommend Devil's Work, Ross Capicchioni and I'm Not Racist.
Couldn't agree more. But don't forget to add "Frozen" to that list.
all of this, please react to all of this and "frozen"
Completely agree on all three of those, legendary storytelling songs
Ross Capicchioni… I came here to say this. SO good and entirely based on a true story.
Also, if you listen to Devil’s Work then you have to listen to Bizzle’s (Christian rapper) reply!
Hopsin- ill mind of hopsin 7
My father took his own life by a firearm, my brother by drugs. I have struggled with my mental health and suicidal thoughts my entire life. Lots of doctors and medications help but some days are better than others. This song brought me to tears when I first heard it when it came out and hearing it with your reaction brought me to tears again. Thank you for doing this one.
❤
Wow, I'm so very sorry, Forest. I really can't even begin to imagine. Your life is so incredibly important. Self harm is such the wrong direction to set your sail. You are loved by too many people to consider that as an option, I hope you KNOW that.
I’m thrilled you are on that road of discovery. What works, what doesn’t. Keep at it. You are worth it. Fight the good fight 👍🏻
❤

The other person that is reading the note is Joyner Lucas; this is one of the most hard hitting songs that Joyner has done regarding mental health.
On a brighter note; I’m loving your reactions, keep up the good work 🤙🏼
Thanks Jack!
This was one of the songs that helped me when I was in a deep pit back in highschool.
So glad this music is there to help people relate and understand they aren't alone.
@@larryshair I didn’t expect a reply, but your reply definitely made my day 10 times better! Keep doing your stuff and thanks for your wisdom!
Joyner Lucas has another emotional rap video you should check out based off a true story “Ross Capicchioni.”
There’s also an interview of Ross in a separate video “Skateboarder’s Unbelievable Survival Story | Ross Capicchioni” for additional perspective. In my opinion, the interview pairs really well after watching the song.
I think this song makes us think about how much hurt a decision like this brings, and helps us find a way to get help and continue living.
No one wants to die they just want the pain to stop. But the pain won't stop, it just gets transferred to your loved ones. It's about finding positive ways to feel negative emotions. Write, draw, exercise, garden, etc. Love to you all! 1 step and 1 breath at a time.

Respect brother, I lost my cousin hung himself in my aunts basement, nothing takes that pain away, how it could be with him here now.. Thank you for posting this, it's a reminder of the pain and memories that are everlasting.. Joyner is an amazing artist and I recommend continuing down the Joyner road of reactions.
I'm so sorry, Josh. I can't even begin to imagine that pain you must feel. It must be such a prison for someone to come to the point in their minds that this is the only way out. I'm so very sorry, brother.
I heard this song for the first time with you and I'm glad I did. These situations are tough and we have or know people who have been through this. I was close to death in my drug addiction and I'm glad I survived it. My daughter is 3 and I am going on 7 years sober and I can't believe I almost missed this beautiful opportunity to be a father to such a special little girl. It's not worth the cost and you will go when it's your time and until then focus on you and what makes you and your family happy because there is nothing more important. Thank you for this reaction.
Thank you for sharing your story, blessings.
So glad you made it to being a good dad. Blessings to you my friend.
As crazy as this song is…it seriously helped me not take my own life at the darkest moment of my life. Hang in there guys. I promise it get better.
Words With Friends And Backwords Are 2 Of Joyners Oldest UA-cam Videos And Theyre The First Ones I Heard. Both Of Those Really Show His Lyrical Capabilities. His Versatility Is Why He’s Considered One Of The Goats.
I’m glad you chose to release this reaction. Thank you.
I loved this reaction thank you! Joyner Lucas actually saved my life with this song. As i had been suicidal for a long time and had made a couple attempts to end my life, he released this and i reached out to my friends and got the help i needed. I will forever be grateful to Joyner for saving my life.
I'm so glad you found help. Now it's your turn. Find others that need to hear your story and lift them from that pit. You've got this! Blessings to you my friend.
Joyner is amazing story teller and in general with his lyrics he’s one of a kind. And for my two cents literally a very humble human being for someone at his level of fame and money. He was in my town and a club was promoting him since he’ll be there. I painted a canvas of him and came to the club, the owner loved it and brought it all out with his bottle service in the middle of the club and he immediately asked if the artist was there and had his camp come get me and have me in his section with him. Man made my day and expressed how much my art made his trip worth it
Joyner is an amazing artist. Some more of his music i would definitely recommend would be "im not racist" it covers the typical stereotypes that people percieve each other, sharing their views. Also, "Ross capicchioni" it is based on a true story so i dont know how easy it would be for you to react to it but its an incredible story
.....It literally doesn't. It literally has a black character who's personality is exactly the real personality of the real black people that caused racism against black people. And has a white character who is someone who literally doesn't even exist and who says only false "points" that zero non-racists who dislike BLM ever say because the actual problems about BLM are completely unrelated to that. People with the white character's personality do exist, but they exist in white, black, and Indian, and their target is "all homeless people" and "all teenagers who act like teenagers", with absolutely zero of it to do with anybody's race and absolutely zero has to do "stereotypical ghetto personality", although people with this personality would also complain about anyone who sells or uses drugs. The race which has the opinion of the white character most often, might be Arab; at least all Arabs I've met who don't harass me as a female, every single one of them has said the things that that white character says. Joyner Lucas should watch Tom McDonald so that he knows what the actual criticisms of BLM and ghetto people are rather then falsely pretending that it is "because they do not work in an office" or whatever.
Love the way you talked about it by the way. Can have 15 mins of fame that's not really fame but leave loved ones with a lifetime of hurt. It's not worth it. People love you more than you know and don't want you gone. Rip to all that have lost their lives . You said you may not want to release this reaction but I'm glad you did. You could possibly save one of your viewers by doing so. Keep up the great work !
Sincerely, thank you for these comments. I truly struggled with releasing this one. I didn't know if the content would be something that would be the right thing to release. It's such a sensitive topic and so very graphic. I have read so many stories tonight that have literally brought me to tears (no surprise there, right? lol). I was very scared this would backfire. There would be no greater honor to know that this helped even one person. It would make all these reactions so very worth it. Thanks again. I really needed to hear this. Blessing brother!
Thank you for deciding to share your reaction. I think it is an important message that unfortunately has to be shared with folks so that they know there is HOPE, they need to take it one day at a time and not be afraid to talk to someone, ANYONE, about how and what they are feeling. ❤
Thanks Elaine. I really struggled on if I should have released this, but I've read some pretty incredible stories that show me that I think I made the right choice to release this one. Thanks so very much for your kind words. Blessings my friend.
Honestly I don't see why you think you shouldn't release stuff like this or Technique's track. It's seems a bit attention seeks. Idk 🤷♂️
Unfortunately this real life stuff, we are all adults here.
There's so much symbolism in all of this. Even the track cover. The one black rose in the middle of the red ones. Roses are beautiful and generally give a happy feeling, but that black rose takes that away. Just like in a group of happy people, that black rose, the one who doesn't get help and decides to commit suicide, makes it a sad picture. Joyner puts everything into these and they come out as works of art.
I have gone through this and it destroyed my family. I am so glad that you posted this reaction. You made a lot of meaningful and accurate points.
Thanks so much Ethan. If this helps one person, I’d be blessed forever.
I found Joyner about 6 years ago now. I was recommended his video and was amazed at his talent. He wasnt putting a ton of music out back then, but when he did it was great. He's only gotten better, and he's came a long way, super happy to see him succeed while also spreading messages.
I lost a close friend (the first friend I've ever lost) to suicide about 9 months ago, and this song burns a thousand times worse than when I first heard it. Check up on your people, 10 minutes of your time could mean the world to them.
I'm so sorry to hear that, Andrew. Thank you for sharing as others need to hear this.
Thank you so much for these I lost my job 2 days ago my life is in shambles and sitting here getting through my own emotions with you I appreciate you so much you have changed a life through these videos
Hey Nolan, I have lost so many jobs in the past and one thing that I have learned. It can be a real blessing. I'm curious to see what's around the corner for you. Please leave a comment and let me know how this transforms...
I'm glad you did Release this ive been struggling bad today with depression I been fighting that Demon for years now I've gotten so close to the idea Especially tonight This reaction helped me a lot at least for now thank you
Kris, I'm so sorry that you are dealing with these thoughts and feelings. You are worth so much more than you might give yourself credit for. I would BET you that others that are dealing with this same issue would love to talk with you. There is no replacement for a path paved with empathy. It has a wild ability to lift both persons out of that pit. I understand that asking for help seems like it takes the strength of 100 men, but you can do this. Too many people love you. Praying for you, brother. Show this world how strong Kris Chaddock is... Love you man.
“If anyone can hear you God can hear you” so very very true. I was thinking the same before you said it. 🙏🏼
Walk with the Lord, his opinion is the only one that matters. Let him guide you, help you and love you, you’re never alone.
If you reading this and think nobody cares God does and I do. 💛✨✨
Thank you for sharing this. You said it, I believe it! Not just that, I have proof, and it is myself. God is with me every step of every day. He is my guide to each person He has placed, and will place, in my path. He knows me. He knows His reason for me to still be here. By His grace He will hold me in the darkness and pull me back to His light every time. We journey together and I’m grateful. He’s a big enough God for every suffering person to grasp onto. And! He desires to be my hope, and your hope. Be a blessing and be blessed.
Love this. Totally agree. Jesus is everything in my life.
Amen guys! 🙏🏼
I want to thank you for releasing this reaction. I’ve battled with depression and suicidal thoughts for a very long time… after my last attempt a few years ago, I found this song and play it when ever I find myself in those situations.
I remember waking up in the hospital and seeing the hurt and confusion on my brothers face… and the fact that he was angry, not with me, but with himself for not knowing how to help me or what to do… the second part of this song in some way helps just bring that memory back and reminds me that I have a reason to keep going. That I have people that do love me and that I can’t let down.
Years later and this same brother is now a dad. And I can’t help but remind myself that I very nearly gave up the chance to meet my niece and love this little girl and be the best uncle I can be for her.
Depression is very real… but so are the people that love and support us. We have reasons to take another breath. To keep fighting. To keep living.
A powerhouse comment. I’m grateful you shared here. So encouraging. Every one can have this outcome, life - abundantly. It’s there folks, grasp hold and don’t let go!
Thanks for this story. I’m so happy you were able to rise above this. You’re a very strong person and a great uncle! Blessings my friend.
Please more Joyner Lucas. One of the best story tellers in the game.
I've known of Joyner Lucas, but never heard this song myself. It was powerful to listen to that for the first time along with you.
To offer a slightly different perspective, I've (thankfully) never had to go through the pain of losing someone to suicide, but I have had to go looking for a good friend after he went AWOL with us thinking the worst. He told me that night he was thinking of doing the deed until my other friend and I found him.
Look out for the people you love. Please let them know you love them, and that they matter in your life. We all need reminders of that sometimes ❤️
I'm so very sorry.
@@larryshair Appreciate the sentiment! The situation could have gone horribly, but my best friend is still with us and is in a much better mind space. I count both of us as lucky 😊
Heard this song for the first time a couple years ago when i was really battling myself mentally. Thank you so much for reviewing this song, there’s a certain comforting tone & ambience in your videos. You’re an absolute champion for taking this request (: Love you brother God bless you & the rest of the viewers!!
Thanks so much, M6rcy!
I've had depression my entire life, in one of my deepest lowest points. I was ready to end it all, my youngest sister told me to listen to this song. I did and I'm still here 2yrs after being at my lowest. Not 100% but I'm striving every day.
Glad you still here. I totally understand you my friend, my first suicide thought over 13 years ago and it's still hounting me. I don't even know how I made it through all those years but I hope it'll change one day. Stay strong bro!
Joyner lucas - like a river. Youre emotion is so similiar to mine kind sir. I shed tears watching these too. Much love! Keep your chin up everyone!
This is impossible to get through without crying your eyes out. It is an extremely important topic to cover as hard as it is. Much Respect 🙏
Love you’re reactions. Happy birthday was my introduction to Joyner when he released it. Absolute artist
Im glad u posted this reaction. It starts a conversation we need to have as a society all around the world
Joyner has some deep feel songs! Happy birthday is a crazy one.
I lost my uncle to suicide. That’s been 30 years of my life that I still miss him. But for the grace of God, who’s given me peace that passes all understanding. Great reaction.
You and I both know where that Peace that surpasses all understanding comes from. Keep your eyes set on Him, my friend. Blessings to you.
Thank you for this reaction. Much needed.
Goodness, Chris, you are taking me on a musical journey I never anticipated. I am experiencing so much through these rap videos. It makes me realize how blessed my life has been.
Thanks Julie!
"I lost, I lost, I lost...nobody's gonna say I gained.." Bars, my friend. Bars.
Thanks Zach. Truth.
This is a hard song for me, I struggle with severe depression everyday & you are absolutely right...I have to tell myself everyday "I can get through this day, I'm not going to quit." Its not easy, it sucks and it hurts. Having the right people makes all the difference in the world. I wouldnt be alive if it wasnt for my parents, my wife and my therapist. And yet even having that support there are times were that feels like its not enough. Those times....those times are when you come face to face with your inner demons and you have to have the strength to reach out for help because if you dont they will swallow you whole. Another song that promotes suicide prevention and awareness is Logics' 1-800, beautiful song but hard to get through.
larry. I am 22, I am not a very smart or academic person (sorry for the poor literature) but watching you react to songs with sad topics is so uplifting because you always make it seem there is another alternative. I am no psychologist but your expression shows me you have been through trauma that relates to most of these reactions hense the passion you show while reacting. I hope things are better for you buddy and I am thankful for how you share sympathetic wisdom to us strangers/subscribers whilst masking pain yourself. I may be wrong in the past trauma I have never been good at reading people but with all my heart... thank you. Love from the UK
Thanks so much for your kind words, Jax. I think it’s pretty difficult to go through this world without getting a little touched by trauma here and there, but it’s all good. Thanks my friend!
If you watch when the belt snaps its as he is speaking about seeing if God is real. Just another thing Joyner Lucas does really well in crafting the song, shows that in this person's time of need something or someone was watching out for him when he called out.
I gained a new perspective full of pain and anger when Alex left but at the same time I was happy he wasn’t hurting anymore, but I was so angry we couldn’t get him to that point while keeping him here
Man, that was a heavy one. And that number of suicides is sickening. I just have to wonder HOW many could have been saved if someone would just have the guts to ask "How are you?" or just to reach out an arm to let the other person know that you see him/her. You "just" have to be strong enough to tackle an honest answer. And I think THAT is what's causing the hesitation really. Or maybe even the fear of being met by anger. You just have to be mentally strong enough to actually DO it. Just remember that your action may save someone's life. That should make it all worth while. Right ? Hmm... It's a very difficult topic, without an easy or obvious answer (though it should be). I keep experiencing my mind spinning in circles, and feel that my answers come right back at me, ready to hit me in the face. As if to say "Oh yeah? It's THAT easy? I'll show you something.." That is my full circle. The SAFE circle, where I have been so many times before in my mind. I just hope I'll be strong enough to dodge that blow and break the circle when and if I'm faced with it.
I think your reaction was absolutely great, and I'm not one second in doubt if you did the right thing posting it. It helps raise awareness, which is always a good thing.
Take care, Chris !
Thanks man. Sometimes, people that find themselves caught in these thoughts benefit from reaching out to others that have the same issue. Helping others and being able to relate to where they are and that you can empathize let's that person know they aren't alone, and that act of reaching out can help raise them out of that same pit. So many think they are alone and that nobody could understand where they are in their lives. That's the sad part. It can take the strength of ten elephants to reach out and say that a person needs help. It's a very dark and scary place to be left with your thoughts. I almost didn't release this reaction. I really struggled with this decision. I really appreciate your confirming that it was the right thing to do. Thanks brother!
That's like one story I heard of an older guy... he walked out of his house with intention to commit suicide, but wouldnt do it if just one person smiled at him. He jumped off a bridge soon after. Damn 😭
Man , your words about loss really hit me in a soft spot . At one point I went through similar thoughts and this song just happened to come into my life , and I won’t go as far to say it helped me through those issues when I felt them, but I definitely revisited this song over and over to express myself when I was alone because it touched a ton of the thoughts I felt ..
granted I’m far past those emotions , but at that time the feelings were unavoidable .
I’ve been digging through your reactions , and I love how genuine you are . Keep digging into this kind of music, it opens eyes to millions , and I hope you find the same value in the sound.
Your reactions are great . 💙
I'm Not Racist is another good to to react to by Joyner, also any of the Ill Mind of Hopsins by Hopsin, 4 5 and 7 are my favorites.
My lil sis showed me this song and my life would end with hers this reaction makes me want to show all the love I have for her but there's no words that can match these feelings he puts in the world with his music it's beautiful
Two very important people in my life have taken this route or made this choice. I have still never really been able to answer the question of, “Why would they think that?” “Why would we be happy without them?” These questions circle my head many times, everyday being reminded of what I’ve lost. This song is a great representation of how it feels. Joyner has been one of my favorite artists for a long time, he writes from the heart, he says things that nobody really seems to deliver in their songs, nobody talks about this stuff like him. Summary; he’s a great artist, love his work, what he does, and “I’m Not Racist” is a great song by him. But the one thing I want to say is, don’t do it, there may not be a clear cut way to get through the darkness, but that doesn’t mean you can’t see light. Don’t do it.
Joyner is amazing. Love his colab with Em
I'm very glad you released this reaction. In a very lonely and scary world, you bring a gentle warmth and kind energy that can be seen with your reactions to these hard topics. Although I do not struggle with depression I can literally feel others pain (ever since I was a child) and I my life's mission is to help others, close the divide with love, that's my core belief. It's so refreshing and renews my faith in others to watch such genuine reactions from you. Please know that makes a difference.
If you haven't already, I'm slowing watching all your reaction videos. I think Hozier- Take me to Church, you will find powerful. That song gives me chills every time I watch it.
I know you struggled deciding to release this reaction, but in my heart, allowing others to see such a genuine caring reaction will help others see there are people who care. It's no accident that this was your reaction; it was made to spread love and kindness to those who need to see it, just as you picked up about Robin Williams before he said it.
Thanks so much for this, AC
Joyner Lucas has an amazing way of storytelling and making you feel the emotions he’s portraying, such a great artist!
Happy birthday is another of his great creations that quite literally had me in tears at the end, definitely worth experiencing
This was good. Hard. But good.
I worked with mentally ill people for 10 years. There is always help to get. There is always another way.
I have been (I am?) depressed. But I found my help in the love for my kids and in music 💛
I love that. Thanks for these thoughts. Hope you rise high above it.
@@larryshair Well Im free from my abuser after 23 years together. And Im trying to find the right help to work thrue all the scars in my soul. Its a start to one day be happy again
Joyner Lucas is the most talented man in the rap industry today. He's a true artist. He's never been a banger. He is a smart man. He is a humble being. He is a poet. He is a story telling genius
Rest in peace to my mate Mike. 25 years old gone too young we always loved you and always will. I’m sorry I didn’t do more I live with that guilt every day.
Good that you loaded it up, your words may help someone.
Joyner is insane, love all his music. Should react to more of his stuff!
Joyner Lucas is amazing, this was the first song I heard from him and I was hooked from then. "Frozen" is another hard hitting one to check out.
I'm relatively new to your channel by the way and I love your reactions, got a friend in me now😊
Thanks!
Joyner is literally one of the best story tellers ever. both sides of the story told beautifully. Id look at "Im not Racist" by Joyner and see what you think on that one.
I appreciate that you interact with everyone. The fact that you actually take request and react to them and shout out people who request it. This is my favorite song by Joyner Lucas. Try reacting to WHERE DID YOU GO by FORT MINOR, ONCE AN ADDICT by JCOLE, or EITHER WAY by CHRIS STAPLETON.
Thanks Dev. I’ll keep interacting until it kinda gets away from me. There’s anywhere from 300-1000 comments a day, depending on the drop. That’s why I only drop songs every other day or it would be too much to keep onto of. Thanks again Dev!
Having never heard this, and having stumbled upon your channel just today...this one was powerful. I too have lost. Mental health is a powerful force.
Man this song was one of the songs that really made me reconsider my suicidal thoughts. After multiple attempts and stays in the hospital, I pushed through and I’m in a much better place. If you’re struggling, reach out for help. People want to help, and you are loved 💜
thank you for staying with us
I struggle with depression. Been fighting for 7 yrs but every day is a struggle and I am still fighting. I have scars where I need to get stitched up. It gets exhausting. And everyday for regular ppl is like 10 times heavier. I still struggle. At one point I lost hope on humanity and the purpose of my life. I gave up I was in a dark place. But what keeps me going is I do want a family 👪 one day and I will raise my kids to be good to ppl and for them to raise there kids caring for other. And thats why I keep fighting after yrs and yrs and see hope and purpose in my life.. I been through things like legal problems not being there for my first born feeling alone. A few yrs ago I burned my legs by accident. I constantly get night terrors of all the situations and sometimes I don't sleep for days just to avoid the night terrors. I feel like sometimes it get over whelping the pain and suffering for just one person and I rather dispenser it. I not going to lie I had those thoughts. I have realized that I rather deal my pain my self than let go to everyone around me. I came to realize of all the ppl that do care about me .. that look up to me.that will look up to me. I give them inspiration to stay strong. If I can do it they can to. We are strong together rather than standing alone. Seek help it will get better 🙏
Thanks so much for this. Helping others that have struggled with what you have struggled with is so very helpful for both involved.
My fiance. May 2016. Memorial Day weekend. I know that we’re supposed to “remember the ones not here”, but JFC, how do you tell the world that the person you loved more than you love yourself... decided that ending his pain was more important than his soon-to-be-wife? Than his two kids (not mine, previous relationship)? How do you tell the world “oh, yeah, he existed, but now he doesn’t”, when most of the world woudln’t even be able to pick him out of a line-up? How do you go thru the rest of your life, knowing that you weren’t good enough to stop him?
My therapist says that I shouldn’t blame myself. Most of the time, I listen to him, & I’m ok. Put on the mask, go out in public, pretend that everything is fine. Smile, smile, smile, make sure you don’t ever make anyone else feel uncomfortable. Go home, take off the mask, & grab the cat, hoping to keep the memories at bay for... just a little while. Just a little while longer. Hoping that this year... maybe this year I can get thru the end of May without wanting to curl into a ball in my closet, & try to muffle screams that threaten to rip my vocal cords to shreds... maybe this year I can finally tell the world “no, I’m not ok. I haven’t been ok for a very long time, & I can’t find my way out of the darkness in my mind.”
Maybe this year.
Honest, open. Therapist sounds pretty good. Taking care of you is the best, very best thing to do.
I can't even begin to imagine. There are so many out there that need help and sometimes, when you are in a position like you are and have been in, sometimes finding a person that is dealing with what you have been dealing with is sometimes very helpful. I really believe that God allows us to experience these things in life so we can relate to others that have been through what we have been through so we can truly empathize with others and lend that shoulder to cry on. Imagine you were the only person in this world that experienced this. What lonely place. But there are others that have found the strength to move on and rise above it. You can be that person to help others that are experiencing things that you have dealt with. You will soon find that 1. You're not alone. 2. You have so very much to offer to others that in turn, will help them find their path. Remember, a diamond can only be created with heat and extreme pressure. Blessings my dear friend.
@@larryshair I’m actually working on my masters in Psych. A little of “physician, heal thyself” in that decision. I can’t save him. I can’t save the millions worldwide who are lost to their darkness. But maybe, between my schooling & my therapist, I can finally figure out how to lead others back into the light. Even if I only save one or two, that’s still one or two that can look back on the trauma & go “you tried to kill me, but i’m still here, bitch.”
I just need to figure out how to say that to my own darkness, & mean it.
As an aside, Icon For Hire’s song “Hollow” actually might be a good song to maybe cleanse how deep these last few of yours have been. Any of their stuff from “You Can’t Kill Us” on (so, 2016 & after) has some really good stuff in it. Their most recent album “Amorphous” is one that I have colloquially started calling “a middle finger to the demons in your head”.
@@rebt6096 I try to take care of myself as much as I can. The cat helps. Mostly by reminding me to eat when he eats...
... and to bathe when he starts to lick my arm...
My cat’s name - Friday. Hugged him lots. I think he was part of my therapy. The furry kind. 😻 loves you!
Welcome to Joyner. Glad you released this reaction if not only for your own reflection. If you want a real hard hitting song to react to look up “happy birthday” by Joyner Lucas. It’s a hell of a roller coaster and will pluck those heart strings. Hope to see you watch it
"it's not worth it" I needed to hear that thank you❤️
My neighbor hung himself in the basement, his wife and 3 kids barged through our front door. My dad and I found him…I didn’t know how to feel. This songs makes my dad and I feel like we could’ve helped him. This is one of the realest Joyner songs. Keep reacting, being real, and enjoying life…life is precious
Great reaction! I love to watch your reactions, they are so pure and genuine and it is very refreshing to see. Please can you react to Crypt - Bad friend. Amazing storytelling song and production!
I'm glad you released this. This song is so important to me and to have you give your perspective on it is truly a blessing. Thanks
Sending you all love and appreciation from Ohio ❤️
Back atcha Kim!
“I’m Not Racist“ by him is very intense but i think everyone should’ve seen that at least once in their lives.
I love your content! its great and you're very expressive and honest with your emotions which makes your videos better. A song of Eminem that I really enjoy and believe that you will enjoy as well is Darkness! the message is very strong and horrific but lyrically, its beautiful and the video of. it makes it better
Need to do so much Joyner his older stuff is so hard hitting and factual based on real life stories or issues
Joyner Lucas has a large amount a songs with the same type of split narrative. Stories told from multiple perspectives like this one. Ross Capicchioni and I'm Not Racist are other great and intense examples.
Oh man this is going to hit hard for you knowing how you are big brother. Very very deep. Hits close to home for me as a few of his does as well. Very talented young artist indeed.
Joyner's probably the best story teller out there 🤯
This song had such a huge impact on my life, not gonna go into a story but it came out during my relationship with was with an unfaithful and manipulative girl, insteaf of making me feel suicidal it gave me hope and inspiration for some reason. I had already been a Joyner fan for 2 years at that point
Yeeeeeeeeeeeees i can't believe you started Joyner Lucas !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
You should check out devils work by Joyner I think you might enjoy it
Ever since I heard this song years ago I felt very connected to it with my own depression and growing up with family members suicides. Even more now with My father who committed suicide in 2020 this song really helped me deal with my emotions after his death. Joyner Lucas has so much music with a message and that’s so important
Joyner is an absolute artist and he's able to touch everyone. He's you're favorite rapper's, rapper.
Thank you for reacting to this. You've become one of my favorite channels because I'm a 36 year old man who has struggled with these thoughts, but mainly because I really relate to you showing emotion with music. Music is the only art form that can turn my 6'3 ass into a crying baby and that's why music is so beautiful. Keep doing your thing brother.
Thanks Jake! Blessings to you brother.
I'd like to recommend you to react to "Bad Guy" from eminem, it's like a part 2 of "stan" but from the point of view of stan's little brother he mentioned on the song. The little brother is also grown up now. I appreciate your eminem's reactions, keep up with them, you are doing great. Hello from Brazil!🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

Him looking back those times and uncrinkling the note are flashbacks of the events of Joyner finding his friend’s body that’s why he never saw the other guy
I almost lost myself in 16 to an od but God had other plans and today 6 years later I’m 21 and glad to be alive and never dreamed of the opportunities I have now at my feet. If any of you reading this are in the same spot I was it genuinely does get better I promise. The harder it gets the better the reward god will have waiting for you I swear on my life. You’re future is worth more than putting your mind at ease because your mind will come to ease you just gotta push through
Very well said, Jaalen
Joyner is a great story teller, he also suffers wirh ADHD, and that is something that alot of us suffer from, it was even the name of his album. Please listen to joyner lucas - ADHD from the ADHD album, so relatable. Love him and love your reactions bro you bring peace to my life.
Man, I've heard this song plenty of times before. But as a man that very recently lost a good friend to suicide, this really hits home. Thank you. Everybody needs a good cry every once in awhile. Love your videos, man.
Lost too many to these sad situations. Really appreciate you diving into songs like this they help a lot of people. Also glad you’re feeling better man
Thanks so much, Tyler!
Thanks for releasing this video.
I really like how you approach the reactions. It moves me that you stay so on Topic. Most reacters just go on the sound and stuff like that.
But you find words to the Topic of it even I just don't find.
Thanks for that.
I myself was on this path but I am glad that I got out of that.
People need to talk about it, people need to talk about their feelings, to their loved ones.
And everyone gets someone to talk to. Even if you think you are alone, just find the one person you can talk to.
They will listen and help.
lost one of my bestfriends last night and tbh im so blown away by it. hit my like a wave i didn't even know we was fighting demons and that breaks my heart so much.. 24 is way to young
I am so sorry to hear about your loss.
Felt like you were looking right in my eyes when you said “not worth it!”.. thank you 🙏🏼
I cried my eyes out in this one!!
As soon as you said Robin Williams before Joyner..no lie...I started feeling muffled and balled my eyes out like a baby😭😭😭😭...we loved Robin Williams! 🥺🥺
To anybody struggling with suicidal thoughts. It gets better. I promise! Be strong. Talk to someone. People do love you more than you'd ever imagine. 😔✌🏽🌹
Thank you for these comments!
I am familiar with the large majority of the rap style songs that you have reviewed; listening along with you makes me realize that I would listen to these songs without considering the lyrics. Watching your videos has shown me how to be much more empathetic to those around me, I appreciate you always sharing your reaction to these song, even when the message may be difficult.
Thanks Albert. I was very close to not releasing this one as it was pretty heavy. Comments like yours tells me that I may have made the right choice. Thanks my friend.
Loved this reaction. My rack mate ended his life on my first deployment. 9 April 2017. I’ll never forget that day. He wasn’t my best friend by any means, but God does that day still haunt me. It’s of course that survivors guilt or “what could I have done to prevent it.
Joyner does many songs with two perspectives where you hear multiple lines repeated or adjusted from the first to second person or perspective. He's an amazing storyteller and I'll echo the sentiment of Ross Capicchioni, both the song/video by Joyner and the true story video with Ross himself.
You’re so honest. Keep it honest. I love your reactions
Thanks so much!
@@larryshair No, thank you! for putting these videos out.
Ive cried with you man (James Blunt, Eminem), and I'm sure im not the only one. I would love to see you react to Eminem - Going Through Changes, here's the link to the explicit version if you decide to do it: ua-cam.com/video/kZkv1x2F03o/v-deo.html
he talks about "Proof" or "Doody", one of his best friends.
Have an awesome day man.
Joyner Lucas im not racist
The uncensored version of Im not it racist is the realest song ever
This song has stopped me from unaliving myself so many times because it just reminds me that I'd be hurting everyone else around me
thank you for releasing this. your speech during the second verse was something that i so very desperately needed to hear, so thank you.
So glad that you were able to take away something from this one. This was the hardest ones to release. Blessings to you my friend.
@@larryshair i totally get that, this was an awfully destructively heavy one. but again, thank you for releasing this and i hope this video never gets removed. you have a heart of gold and it's fantastic to know someone out there both cares and listens. thank you, and blessings to you my friend.
