Thank you for this heart felt reaction and the support 💓 sending all the love!!
You legit have the voice of an angel. You hit me in the feels hard. Amazing human
Yooo, you rocked this.
u all good
We thank you and ren for this great piece. What's with the nails though lol. Was it an artistic choice? I know you English guys and girls love your flash 😂
Your whole style is cool AF
ty so much for your music. 8-)
The police will sometimes put a chalk outline around a dead person at a crime scene. Therefore we can assume the use of "floating chalk outlines" is a metaphor for a walking dead person or "zombie." A lot of people on major anti-depressant drugs refer to the experience as feeling zombie-like. At least that is how I interpret the song.
You reviewed it better in one comment
Ren was misdiagnosed for a very long time. He contracted lymes disease but they treated him for everything but lymes. Only recently has he began treatment for the disease that he has.
It’s brave to share the tattered portions of our secret selves. You’ve built a fine community here. I hope you find comfort in their kindness and, even more, I hope you find companionship, compassion and acceptance in your IRL community.
Don't EVER apologize for being such a beautiful person.
10:45 see thats whats beautiful about music make it about what ever you want it to be
Thank you Zayyhan for this strong reaction. The song shows a bit of Rens medical history. When he was younger he search medical help for some issues but he was misdiagnosed with depression, bipolar disorder, and chronic fatigue syndrome, which led him to experience psychosis. So he was mistreatend with wrong drugs for years. It would take seven years before a doctor in Belgium finally correctly diagnosed Ren with autoimmunity, Lyme disease, and resulting damage to the brain, organs, joints, and PTSD. Ren eventually underwent stem cell therapy in the United States, which improved his health, but it has not been a cure. Ren is currently in Canada for more treatments, including surgeries, and will have to be there for at least six months (Summer of 2023). And for you I wish the best. Take care. I've liked and subscibed.
Chinchilla mentions Sertraline and Serotonin which are used to treat things like depression, PTSD, OCD, panic attacks, etc… so I think the song is about having to deal with depression and being told to just take another pill and you’ll be fine, but in doing so you disappear into just a chalk outline of your real self.
He has so much soul in his voice.
The song is about the side effects of medication and the medical institutions habitual ways of just prescribing pills for anything.
And the feeling of being a floating chalk outline when you are on these pills, neither alive nor dead.
As someone who has lived with severe depression for 37 years this cuts deep into my soul.
It is a perfect depiction of this state and the emotion or lack of emotion.
Just know that you are not alone in this feeling Miss Zayyhan Bartis, and i feel with ya, i know what it is.
I'm sitting here wiping tears with you beautiful lady. 😢
Don't apologize for your emotions, they are beautiful.
I believe this can apply to addiction, mental illness and I think this is also about his Lyme disease. It devastates your body. Even on good days in the back of his mind he knows it will only last until the next flair up. Thankfully he is getting treatment in Canada as we speak! Much love from TX!❤
The reason you cry from a song that's so moving is because at our core its the first thing we're all born doing.
I believe he’s describing his health journey. Taking medication that suppressed his sobriety, putting on a smile when you don’t feel like smiling, being so accustomed to the trauma of his illness - even the good days don’t bring comfort/peace.
Fyi, Chinchilla references Sertraline which is an antidepressant. I interpret the song to be about the user of prescription medications to manage depression or other mental health issues, and the effects they have such as numbing us to the world around us, leaving us vague chalk outlines in place of the people we should be.
She actually states, such relief in a sip of serotonin which is a chemical released naturally by the brain to elicit happiness.
The beauty of rens music is its free to be interpreted as needed.
@@clappin_cheeks9191it’s not. It’s sertraline and a sip of serotonin. Sertraline is sold as Zoloft in the states. No brands here in the uk
Sertraline is first line prescribed for monopolar depression and anxiety in the UK. Very common, at least these days. If you're depressed and NHS treated, you know the word.
I take sertraline. Like any antidepressant, it’s not a cure, it’s a tool. It pulls me far enough out of the darkest places so I can focus on bettering myself through other means… therapy, yoga, writing, whatever. But for people with an actual imbalance beyond their control, getting to those other means without some help is absolutely overwhelming.
I think its about how when you see a doctor for help dealing with issues some of them just prescribe you whatever pill is currently paying for their vacation home. A lot of the time the pills can help modify our depression, but leaves us feeling like we are only partially there or like a different person looking through a window from the outside
I'm glad your still here...the world needs you❤
TRUTH!
Don’t ever apologize for being human. It’s a beautiful gift to feel
Beautiful Zay. Living fully is what this song means to me. Letting go of our Stories and Living Free. In Ren's case that was getting through years and years of illness and drugs to stay alive. But then you start feeling better and start feeling yourself for the first time. You doubt. Can I do it. As I was writing this I thought of the Beatle song Black Bird. Helped me get though a few tough years. Ren touches deep into our souls. Thank you for for sharing You.
What a beautiful video. I am thankful that this music shows us it's ok, normal, and in fact preferable to show and be who we really are... You know that saying be kind because people are going through struggles you know nothing about. We have all struggled at some point we have all felt pain and anguish. Maybe if we would know each other's struggles as human beings it would be easier for us to understand love and care about each other. Thanks for being brave enough to be real.
I am not sure what was more emotional, Ren's song or your reaction! lovely to see the connection. thank you
😍🔥as always. Can't wait for more Ren.
There's more to Ren and Chinchilla's beautiful voices and talents that I love... I love that their willingness to expose their own challenges and vulnerabilities so publicly is giving millions of people, young, and old (like me), the courage to express themselves openly...to discuss the mental challenges we all endure. Bless you...be strong.
Beautiful reaction. I thought I could finally watch this song without shedding a tear ... nope. Ren's music does this to many people his music is cathartic. Stay strong ... You have friends ... "We must not forget ... that we are human beings".
Feel that! Yet wanna say trying😏 to sing it feels like taking power back...think some in the way you MUST engage with your body to TRY 😏singing it ... And watching the video definitely does not help with keeping their artistic skills are too on point...her exhaustion & desperation toward end 🔥🥺🌹
It’s so rare that songs can make a tears shed.. I can only count on one hand or maybe a few fingers.. These two artists and NF are pretty much the only ones for me.. They just put so much of their passion and themselves into their music that it just is so relatable.. and I’m so glad that you are doing better now.. :) You’re not alone.. Great reaction!!
Ren has such a way of focusing the spotlight on the human side of humanity. All the struggles and strife we face but hide it away because we're ashamed to let people know we're hurting and need need help. And as much as we sometimes feel alone in our battles artists like Ren, NF, Jelly Roll let us know they go through it too, we're not alone!
The lyrics for this one can be about street drugs but it's also about the antidepressants the doctors love to throw at everyone. They literally take away all emotions. Like you feel nothing. You're basically the walking dead, hence the "floating chalk outlines" you're alive, but dead inside, feeling nothing.
Ren another song with Chinchilla called, "How To Be Me" It's dedicated to one of Ren's best friends that committed suicide. The live version is the one to react to though. They filmed it on the bridge his friend jumped from and just knowing that is so heart-wrenching. But it's also destroys me that song because of the lyrics and I've lost 27 friends and family members to suicide. Starting in Junior High, through my time in the military to especially these last three years it seems every two to three months someone I love and care about has enough and they take their light from us and as they do my world gets darker.
Sorry I went on a bit of a rant.
But hey if you ever need a Ren cleansing because these 3 songs you've reacted to are pretty heavy you should check out two if his more upbeat and positive rap songs, "Power" which the lyrics aren kind of dark but the hook is sooo freaking amazing and it's a damn good positive message that one.
And the other rap one to check out which is an ode to The Beastie Boys and is upbeat and a freaking time machine to the early 90's. The song is called, "What You Want" and he raps his ass off on both songs.
Thank you... for being yourself. You are seen, you are heard. But most of all - thank you for sharing your thoughts and such an open, honest reaction. The more we share our journeys the more we realise that we are not alone. x
Thank you for your heartfelt and genuine reaction.
I see it as being bounced from pill to pill,searching for a release from the various illnesses he went through (ultimately misdiagnosed).a beautiful heart breaking song.
Zay, welcome to the Ren Gill rabbit hole! He is an utterly amazing artist and I think you will find a lot of his stuff hits hard. It does with me anyway, and I bet you feel it too. +1 sub and I love your reaction. 🎶💖😎🔥
I just imagined a big group hug at his concert while Ren is singing this song as we sway in unison to the melody.
Loved your reaction. No one is exempt from feeling the rug will be pulled out from under you. Most people feel that way.
The song’s is about the years of misdiagnosis & one pill after another. That’s what I think. The song is powerful bcuz so many people are given meds that “band aid” health issues.
I’m 58 & my only advice to you is: “things could always be WORSE”!!! I savor EVERY victory for stupid shit, like, my car started, my a/c works, great playlist for a road trip. Every day is a chance to learn about myself. I’m blessed with the kind of friend’s & family that genuinely care about me & support me.
I think Ren IS a breath of fresh air. His performances are just what people today, need to hear. And it’s heartfelt & entertaining.
I am happy that you are getting better and loving yourself.
Thank you for sharing your emotional reaction to this song. You had me crying again while watching it. ❤
One of the best reaction vids. New subscriber. ❤
I'm crying with you...keeping it real ❤🔥😪
An honest and heartfelt reaction because you lived inside of it. That’s what music should do. Felt with you!
I loved your reaction; I still can't get through this one without bawling yet, and I've listened to it at least 60 times by now since I put it on the playlist at work a few weeks ago.
From a rando on the internet: I'm glad you're still here. We are all human and we all go through things. I'd like to recommend to you personally "A Better Place, A Better Time" by Streetlight Manifesto (which is a fantastic band and extremely worth a deep dive if you like horns), as well as keep going with the Renaissance (I think that's what it's being called). :)
His voice is soothing. So is chinchilla
Beautiful reaction and thoughts
You made me see the song through a different angle
About numbing ones feelings, thoughts and ultimately ones Self for fear of changes
And that includes not only medical treatment side effects, which was my first interpretation, but also drug addiction and self-sabotage behaviours
It opened my eyes to realize that even though I see myself as someone who won over depression and it's been clean for more than 12 years, I'm still "scared of being ok"
Thank you
"I'm still here in this bed that I crawled in
I hope that I'm someone else in the morning" that hit hard 😔 💔
I am so honored to have experienced this masterpiece of a song, I feel like this song has a different meaning to each and everyone of us, I can't wait to hear yours❤️
Love and light ✨️
Zay
I know just what you mean. Some days it’s just too hard to get out of the bed and you just think “tomorrow it will be different, I’ll be different”.
Especially since he was bedridden for years. That's the hidden meaning. He had hoped to wake up and be someone not bed ridden and hurt by mis diagnosis
Hi Zayyhan, loved your response -so real, raw and true emotion! Ren is a genius!!
He speaks of many battles this one seems to be about the battle between addiction and over prescription. Also about how some fear accepting a good thing because it will trigger a bad thing to follow & maybe guilt for not being happy when things are good. Some feel guilt and ingratitude when they know they are fortunate but can't find joy in it.
As someone who has spent years sick, bedridden for days/ weeks/ months with physical illness (but not addiction ) I find it absolutely makes sense. When you do have a day without being woken up by pain and you are actually able to get out of bed it feels like a perfect day and you want to soak it in and enjoy it, BUT you know that it may just be that day, maybe two but you don’t know when you will be once again awoken in pain and held hostage to it in that bed.❤
You are awesome and deserve all the good things in life. Ren's songs truly hit home with several people which make them that much more relatable and great. Wishing him a healthy recovery and wishing you the best in your software challenge. Enjoyed your heart felt reaction and hang in there!
Such a raw reaction.. Ren will actually love this one!
TRUTH!
Thanks for sharing your feelings and thoughts with all of us. To put things in words is so important. Ren has this therapeutic ability to put our struggles in words. Sometimes even with a sense of hope ( Hi Ren ). Lots of us are / were close to a point of no return, but words can help to survive. Last year, I lost one of my kids by suizide. He never talked about his struggles and the demons he was fighting. Please keep talking and fighting, it's worth it
Thanks for staying with us! You are so beautiful, not only on the outside, but also on the inside! We need people like you. Thank you! Stay strong! And most importantly, love yourself. Smile!
Beautiful reaction Zay... thank you so much for sharing yourself with us. +1 sub.
what a moving reaction. you are not alone in the way rens music affects people, even though my experience doesn't seem as profound as yours, it hits me. why would a 78 year old man that has had a relatively charmed life spend 5 days doing nothing but listening to ren reactions. i can't explain it. I found the first reaction to hi ren when i was doing my usual morning pentatonix search- i am a pentaholic. and stumbled on him. ptx music goes into your soul Ren;s music GOES INTO YOUR SOUL
What a beautiful reaction ... please carry on with the Ren reactions, there are so many. Subbed in anticipation xx
This song is about coming to terms with the feeling that the medicine gives you that you take to not feel the way you would feel without taking the medicine. Sometimes medicine affects people in different ways. Makes some people feel like they have no emotions at all like they’re walking around and they’re just not themselves they’re outside themselves or they feel like they’ve got a big bubble around them. They’re like the walking dead.
The sertraline and a sip of serotonin line that chinchilla starts her verse with … sertraline is Zoloft and the sip of serotonin means when you wash it down with the water. That’s what starts the serotonin released in your brain.
Yep, the line “I’m scared of being okay cause all things change” hit me like a ton of bricks
You had my favorite reaction to this, everyone talks about the meaning and you felt it..feeling it means so much more
people please give yourselves permission to have emotional experiences while discovering/exploring arT. Don't push it back down- pretty please.
You have to check out How to be Me with Ren & Chinchilla another stunning masterpiece about suicide awareness.
Nice reaction to this GENIUS of an authentic & true artist. I've subscribed in anticipation of you reacting to more Ren.
Reacters are gaining lots of mileage out of Ren's content & it would be fantastic for him if you all start VERBALLY encouraging your followers to subscribe to his channel 🤔
It's disappointing to see Hi Ren, alone, has been viewed approximately 8m times but he hasn't even reached 1m subscribers yet.
Come on! Let's help him!
Cheers 👍🍻
That is actually a good ratio. People will subscribe if they want to. It works both ways. It wouldn't be 8 million views without the reactors. I am sure I am not alone when I say the last thing I want is to hear someone suggest or tell me I need to do something. I will probably be back tomorrow apologizing for my comment because I am in the process of getting off these F-ing antidepressants that have numbed for too long. It goes without sayig But for now this is how I feel. 🤕
@@alvajjoe No need to apologise. I like your honesty, if not the reply.
Best of luck ♥️
@Steve Cody honesty has gotten me more in trouble. It was uncalled for and I knew it. I just couldn't hit delete. I watched about 15 reaction videos and your comment was in about 13 of them 😆 You make a very valid point but I just believe it goes without saying. I have noticed a lot of new reactors over the last month because of Ren. Sorry for being a jerk. I think I was trying to find someone to put me in my place. You are a perfect example of how to do it with kindness. Thanks for helping me grow.
@@alvajjoe ♥️
Lovely reaction to this exceptionally moving song., just beautiful.
Loved your reaction...!
Just want to send ❤, You seem like such a genuine, beautiful person. You deserve nothing short of those things in return.
What you feel honey is the human condition & connection ❤️
Thank you for sharing this...I love getting to experience this piece of art with so many people because of this crazy technology.
I’m happy for you. Keep going!! Great reaction!!
i see you. you are such a lovely person, unaffected, candid, and i'm sure -- just by listening to you when you speak and the way you speak -- that you are kind.
Beautiful reaction you hang in there we all need you, you are a special person glad i found your channel - love
I love your honest reaction. ❤️
Can you tell me what the music is that's playing in the background while you're speaking at the end? It's beautiful.
I haven't seen this song being about addiction. But you made me think, it just fits perfectly.
Addiction has many faces. Depression is one. you're not alone. Wake up swinging so you can also share your story.
For Ren it wasn't about addiction, but taking medication after medication as the Dr's saying this will help fix you... but then you become a zombie from the meds, that you are a shadow of your former self. Floating chalk lines like we're dead inside and just "getting by"
It's an emotional experience watching Ren videos
Loved it!! You should watch Chinchillas "Fingers" video! You WILL Love it!!!!
She's Awesome!!!
Bless
Maybe it has already been said - but he was physically very I’ll and misdiagnosed. He was told it was all in his head and improperly medication for years and years and only recently found out he has Lyme and a lot of damage was done because of the delay. Check out his song Diazepam. Already done Hi Ren?
What a great reaction..keep up the good work!
Thank you! Will do!
Beautiful reaction
I get the impression they are talking about depression in general. That could be due to addiction, but in Ren's case I don't think he's an addict, but rather he's battled with mental illness due to prolonged misdiagnosis of his lime disease. He spent 10 years physically ill, and being constantly diagnosed for psychological disorders. The treatments didn't work, because they we for problems he didn't have. Untreated lime disease can lead to psychosis and other mental illnesses. And I think he's been battling those, now that they've at least figured out the root cause of his physical illness. I may not have that exactly right, but that's my understanding. The idea of a clinical medical system that just carelessly prescribes narcotics as a cure all is a reoccurring theme in his songs.
Enjoy your authenticity and wants you to go listen to chinchillas last
Little girl gone
And fingers the artist in me loves both versions I think the video version 1st helps you understand how amazing the live version is and that extra line she added in rehearsal before the live... And the costumes and the artistry in the video is just mind-blowing SO clever
Humans Being. Thank you for being human. Hit those buttons.. yes I did. Lovepeace
Awww momma, I'd love you forever.. p.s. I feel the same
Just checking your content out:)
ty Zayyhan 8-)
Nice reaction still waiting for NF though 😢
Stay innocent girl your sweet. I cant imagine not being able to imagine addiction😅
It's okay to cry. I do too.
Never be sorry for Ren tears
❤❤❤❤❤
Very good job
You won’t know if your website is useable till you post it and get the feedback. Do it now so you won’t be disappointed by “feeling” like it’s ready then getting the negativity and all that.
You are wonderful

Hi. Can you react to Ren - Humble?
❤💔❤❤
Nope not about addiction.
