Ok, so Ren can sing, play multiple instruments, writes amazing poetry and music, has cool hair, ridiculously good looking, likeable, and now I find out he can rap/perform spoken word... Leave something for the rest of us! 😆
He is simply gifted......magical with a bright aura that's blinding .....first saw him on twitch tv and just sat in awe and enchanted immediately......he puts our minds into perfect words...... he is just so calming and brings me home x
Yes. Yes you/we/us are all meant to cry. Biology trumps ideology and geography. From babies to old age, crying is as honest as we get. Honor your tears, for they tell you about pain, and empathy when you feel that gut punch when someone you love cries.
@@emperorofcuntstittiesprink155 I'm sorry it took me so long to see this reply, I blame the crap notifications, because I found it very deep! If you copied it from somewhere else don't tell me.😁
It’s just when I think I’ve found it all…he just keeps delivering deep, emotional, painful, introspective, and utterly soul touching art. It’s just ridiculous at this point. We are seeing a legitimate super star in the making
Ren is like a wormhole leading to another universe where truth and pain unite to form the artistic lyricism that is Ren. And the world stops existing for a few minutes...because you are there, with Ren.
The world stops existing for a moment, then it somehow expands and becomes so much more beautiful. His music helped me get in touch with feelings that my emotional deprivation schema kept at a distance. I'm having conversations I've avoided forever, and my inner world is now bigger
Holy hot damn yes he has. I wonder if Ren’s seen this comment. To transcend the words of Tom Waits is just about the highest compliment one could receive about one’s music.
I found this song this morning on my way to work. This was me 3 years ago. Thank you Ren! My healing process involves revisiting and sitting with my shadow. You given me the best gift. I have to remember where my feet have been so I can keep my head out of the clouds.
I live in Brighton and Ren / his band The Big Push are a huge part of the street culture. They busk a lot here and I’ve seen them quite a few times by accident. I always thought he was amazing at singing, but didn’t realise the extent of his talent until recently - and now feel like I took it for granted! With him exploding right now, I’m not sure how many small ish street gigs we will get in the future
Well now I’m going to have to look up Molly McKinna because her voice was amazing! She gives me Billie Eilish vibes and honestly, I would not hate a Ren/Billie team up at some point in the future, but I LOVE finding new, super talented, lesser-known artists through his music! (I’m currently going through all these older videos because I’ve been so hung up on the newer stuff that I just KNEW I was sleeping on some amazing tracks and had to rectify it stat)
Ren is one of the greatest poets of our times. Mark my words, years down the line, this stuff is gonna be of legends... I'm an English Teacher and he's my favourite ❤️
Yeah, I'm always in awe of his lyrics, the richness and depth in them, and his extreme creativity. I'm wondering if you use his poetry in your classes?? Must be a great way to engage your students... 😊 PS: I'm sorry for any mistakes I made or if my english isn't up to par. I'm Dutch and not a native speaker.... 🤫😅
@@cindy4175 hey! Thanks for your reply. Yes in fact I do make my students listen to a lot of good music everyday, and give them references to songs and quotes from great musicians. It's my way of teaching and has worked wonders so far. Don't worry about the grammar and English, as long as you get your message out to people in the right way intended, I think it's good enough :) Cheers mate!
When you spend 20 minutes trying to think of what to say to sum up how something makes you feel and how impressed you are. This is so profound is all I’ve got.
I can't stop listening to this song. I just got out of a phyc ward two weeks ago and I found this song and I just want to say, thank you ren. Fuckin thank you man, for making me me that much less alone. Even if it is a 3 min song, it's soo much better than my alternative. Your music is getting me thru some rough shit and I hope you never stop making it. I love you and your music, your a blessing! Thank you ren♡ oh and Happy new year, I hope it's better then the last at least. Xoxoxo
Keep on keeping on. Tomorrows a new day. Things change, by design and accident. Gotta be in it to win it. Love n hugs to you. I can relate and understand your journey too, u may feel alone but your not alone in the big scheme of things.🌻
This song reminds me of my fiancé who passed away. Not in a dark way on her part, she was the best part of me. No one will ever make me feel the way she did. But from his side, it’s just real

Can we please talk about the fact that he took the lyrics from Blind Eyed and adapted them to the song? Ren i am completely astounded by what you made out of this song and in love with this one ...
I noticed he did this is a few other songs! I love it! The fact that all the songs connect in some way. It makes it feel like a continuous storyline. This one is so deep that it gave me chills and made me think about my darkest times. This man is amazing and his music helped me a lot, it was there for me in dark or light, if you know what I mean. I can't be grateful enough for his music.
I know I am late to the party but I only found you recently and I’m blown away. It’s takes a lot for this nearly 60 year old to get this excited about music these days but you really have made me speechless on many occasions now (not an easy feat). Pure poetry, art, talent and I’m hooked. ❤
I'm with you, Amanda. I'm also nearly 60. Can't take my eyes off this young man. Maybe because experience has tauight us how rare he is. I appreciated Eminem's uniqueness and Ren is chomping at his heals in the rap department, but then his mastery of guitar, vocals, and performance is so good, and it is the music I love so much. I doubt there is anything he can't do. I have listened to The Hunger maybe 50 times just in the last 24hrs. It's nuts how good he is. I rang my brother to tell him to check him out and he says , " you know I'm not into rap" and then adds that I should check out the talent of this UK band doing 'I Shot the Sheriff', The Big Push! Yeah, Ren is all over it.
At nearly 70 I found him nearly a year ago (via one of my sons) cannot get enough of his music & that of his Big Push friends they are all so talented in different ways 😊
There are many scars on my body left as marks of dark times - "You see I wanted the physical to match the psychological And yet no matter how hard I dug, I still could not match that pain". I think Ren speaks of things that so many of us can relate. The beauty of his music hits deep.
When I feel sad or frustrated I always come here to listen to this song. And that's why I'm here. I need a hug and someone who says everything will be okay.
Having MS has left me without friends. It's my husband and my 5 dogs... Ren helps me in so many ways, and this song makes me remember one moment at a time, don't go just yet, breathe and you're okay. ❤
Wow this song is so fucking beautiful.....I have never felt so connected to an artist in my life. Thankful to be able to hear your music, and feel it as well. 🫠🫣🥰
Thank you so fucking much for being exactly who you are, and everything you have gone through, it means an exponential amount to those who relate, and thrive, gain perspective and hope off your well versed emotions. You are an artist of many facets, you are a life saver. Thank you for all you do. I needed you and did not know it. You have brought me to emotional places that have been dead for a long time, please carry on and be you. The world needs it.

It makes me so happy to be able to be a witness of these small, yet large figments of the stream of consciousness coming from this brain. Every now and then I recognize my own way of 'puzzling with possibilities' in my head, especially when it comes to the search within the misty, sometimes dark, world of illness and health. Someone wrote that he feels 'at home' with Ren. I have that too. I find in you a very pleasant mix of amazement and recognition/home coming, Ren. Wish I knew you. Thank you.
This track too needs more views. Ren is an Angel - he knows it too, he often alludes to it in his lyrics and writings - here to defeat the forces of evil by bringing Light to the Darkness both within ourselves and the greedy corporate world- how many 17 year olds make such a declaration? He's rapidly building his army of Renegades, sowing the messages into our souls, igniting that spark within us that we are all here for something more and uniting us. As we have seen with the backlash we gave to CNN in support of Ren and his work, together we are already a formidable force with Archangel Ren at the helm
God this is so beautiful, Rens music and videos touch my soul. I think my mind is leaking 😢............. solitude.........🤷........... is so depleting. Wow that hits hard with me.
Don't know HOW I missed this until now. It's a symphony of feelings...that piano just breaks my heart! Proof that simple...with spaces...can access those places...we ALL try to keep for ourselves...cause we ALL hide our pain from the world...until freckled angels...leave us no choice...we just HAVE 2 give voice... And this? This does it with joy! Congrats boys n girls (and I CAN say that cause I'm old...Lol)... You've crafted a soulful. And now MY soul is full. Xx
As I discover more and more of your amazing ( and prolific and varied) musical output Ren, the more impressed I am. Music is such a wonderful healing and uplifting 'thing' and you and your poetry are truly special. Thanks for giving.... .....get well soon. Be wonderful to see you in Scotland....🙂❤👍
I'm in the midst of a lot of challenges. Thank you, Ren. Thank you for helping rewaken my inner-self. You help me reconnect with my whole person and get me out of my head - where all of my pain originates. Sincerely, I thank you from the depths of my being.
Damn! Each time I discover a Ren song, I subconsciously adjust my expectations to not anticipate such a high, but somehow EVERY DAMN TIME he manages to make me experience a whole spectrum of emotions and tears me appart in a new way!❤
Everything I've seen of yours, Ren, just leaves my jaw on the floor. With all that you create you are reaching people on a level few artists can achieve with a single song, let alone their entire output. Thank you.
There are few things in this world that make me feel high without chemical substances. This song is one of them. When a song hits me lyrically and the melody, accompanying music and sounds are all singing to each other, I can actually feel high. I love the deliberate breaths through-out this, first slow and agonizing, anxiety-ridden, angry, and then back to something resembling calm or sedated...with a drug, pressure drop, whatever it is we need to get us out of that insanity, if only for a moment. Truly incredible. Thanks, Ren!
I know that music is classified as art as a general rule of thumb but this is ART it touches all senses for me not just not just in the sense of visualisation or hearing
Hi ren has been there for a long time growing , can I just say as a 40 year old woman I haven’t felt this I don’t even know what to call it emotional excited connection to new music , absolutely genius I am really excited to see what’s next your phenomenal I hope to one day hear you very much live with my own living ears my soul has a lot of healing to do and your helping thank you so much ❤
Ok, so Ren can sing, play multiple instruments, writes amazing poetry and music, has cool hair, ridiculously good looking, likeable, and now I find out he can rap/perform spoken word... Leave something for the rest of us! 😆
Don't forget beat boxing, directing, editing and acting.
He can have them all so long as we can experience them all through him. Stunning. A true artist and a gift to every one of us. Keep on.
He is simply gifted......magical with a bright aura that's blinding .....first saw him on twitch tv and just sat in awe and enchanted immediately......he puts our minds into perfect words...... he is just so calming and brings me home x
you forgot beatbox and act!
He is a genius
this is one of my many favourites of Rens, I don't understand why it hasn't more views, it's so beautifully sad
I love it to but it breaks me to hear it because I can feel how deep the cut was. So I can only listen when my heart can handle it.
Why do I still end up balling my eyes out every time I listen to this! I'm a grown up man. We're not meant to cry are we? ❤
Yes!! ❤
@@maddynuff2091 ❤
Yes. Yes you/we/us are all meant to cry. Biology trumps ideology and geography. From babies to old age, crying is as honest as we get.
Honor your tears, for they tell you about pain, and empathy when you feel that gut punch when someone you love cries.

It’s just when I think I’ve found it all…he just keeps delivering deep, emotional, painful, introspective, and utterly soul touching art. It’s just ridiculous at this point. We are seeing a legitimate super star in the making
For me , Ren is that pill pop…I find peace and time stops.
When you listen to a Ren song the world stops existing for a few minutes.
Ren is like a wormhole leading to another universe where truth and pain unite to form the artistic lyricism that is Ren.
And the world stops existing for a few minutes...because you are there, with Ren.
@@z3r0w1ngeloquently put. And yeah.
I listen to lots of Ren while working. It's Awesome!
The world stops existing for a moment, then it somehow expands and becomes so much more beautiful. His music helped me get in touch with feelings that my emotional deprivation schema kept at a distance. I'm having conversations I've avoided forever, and my inner world is now bigger
Best short comment by far
"I like beautiful melodies telling me terrible things"
You've transcended this. No words.
Holy hot damn yes he has. I wonder if Ren’s seen this comment. To transcend the words of Tom Waits is just about the highest compliment one could receive about one’s music.
Tom Waits quote
I found this song this morning on my way to work. This was me 3 years ago. Thank you Ren! My healing process involves revisiting and sitting with my shadow. You given me the best gift. I have to remember where my feet have been so I can keep my head out of the clouds.
Underrated masterpiece
Listen with headphones
Ren is medicine
Yes he definitely is I love him I can't get enough. Would be a dream to see him live
@mollymckinnamusic absolutely nailed this tho.
This such a poetic window into pain of breakup.
I still don't know why this one hasn't gone viral, yet
God what a range as an artist. From this song to Jenny’s tale to money game part 1 and 2 the sound is so incredibly different I’m in awe
Cant forget blind eye.

This song reminds me of my fiancé who passed away.
Not in a dark way on her part, she was the best part of me. No one will ever make me feel the way she did.
But from his side, it’s just real
The poetry in these lyrics is on another level to most artists today

Lyrics:
Lately I think I was over
Time in my chest, beating slower
like the clouds the colour of them
fading out, fading out
Oh the heavy
heart I carried went over your head
and over mine
(Regret)
I counted the days she left like a prisoner
Etching markings on my skin with an old knife, scratching
(Forget)
You see I wanted the physical to match the physiological
Yet no matter how hard I dug I still could not match that pain
(Regret)
I longed for reasons, I sung with demons
I sat in a dark dusty room, barley moving, breathing
(Forget)
I chewed through my own umbilical chord attached to her naval
I wanted to be separate
Oh I think my mind is leaking
Solitude is so depleting
I did it to myself I know that you were faithful
I did it for my health
How come I’m still unstable
and fallen far from help
A suicidal angel,
who’s lost their wings and fell
Fallen so ungraceful
Banished into hell
I wish that I could stop crying,
They say that the body is 70% water
I feel like I must have reduced mine by a considerable fraction
Newton's third theory states that for every action
there must be an equal and opposite counter reaction
and so I retrace my steps;
and try to find reason in the arms of my demons
'cause i cant find healing if i cant find meaning
a conundrum leaning on my dumb numb feelings
tie the noose high beaming when I hung from ceilings
want to run from demons that are living in my head
and escape
fate and disparate, evaporate, evacuate
and inactivate
fate, but it cut the breaks
now I’m driving my universe into a lake
and the weight, weight of the world don't wait
we make mistakes when it's all at stake
for goodness sake, a double take
but i don't want to eat that cake
I ruminate inside meaning
to illuminate a dark mind
i communicate without speaking and i've seen so much I went blind - eyed Why, I, live in a lie,
Live in a lie with a lion inside
Live in a lie with a lion inside of my mind that is hungry, it's hungry for my
Sanity, my, sanity, I live in a lie with a lion inside
Live in a lie with a lion inside of my mind that is hungry and I don't know why
Pressure drop, deep breath, time stops
A broken, ect. dot dot dot
Pressure drop, pressure drop, pressure drop
I feel it, consuming, I can't stop
dot to dot the lines
join the dots and I'm
tying knots then divide and multiply
square the root of pi, beat the puzzle I
Tried to keep my mind focused on the line
Hop scotch and pop rocks
I take shots of tear drops
When I drop a pill pop
I find peace and time stops
Fantastisch
merry christmas ren!!!

Lately, I think I was over
Time in my chest, beating slower
Like the clouds, see color of them fading out
Fading out
Ooh, the heavy heart I carried went over your head
And over mine
[Verse 1: Ren]
(Regret)
I counted the days she left like a prisoner
Etching markings on my skin with an old knife, scratching
(Forget)
You see I wanted the physical to match the psychological
And yet no matter how hard I dug, I still could not match that pain
(Regret)
I longed for reasons, I sung with demons
I sat in a dark, dusty room barely moving, breathing
(Forget)
I chewed threw my own umbilical cord, attached to her naval
I wanted to be separate
[Post-Verse: Ren]
Ooh, oh I think my mind is leaking
Ooh, solitude is so depleting
[Verse 2: Molly McKinna]
I did it to myself
I know that you were faithful
I did it for my health
How come I'm still unstable?
And fallen far from help
A suicidal angel
Exhaust my wings and fell
Falling so ungraceful
Banished into hell
[Verse 3: Ren]
I wish that I could stop crying
They say that the body is 70% water
I feel like I must've reduced mine by a considerable fraction
Newton's Third Theory states that:
"For every action, there must be an equal and opposite counter-reaction"
And so I re-traced my steps
And try to find reasons, in the arms of my demons
'Cause I can't find healing, if I can't find meaning
A conundrum leaning on my dumb numb feelings
Have a noose high-beaming, when I hung from ceilings
When I run from demons, that are living in my head and escape
Fate and disaparate
Evaporate, evacuate
And then activate
Fate, but it cut the breaks
Now, I'm driving my universe into a lake
And the weight, weight of the world, don't wait
We make mistakes when it's all at stake
For goodness sakes, a double take
But, I don't want to eat that cake
I ruminate inside meaning
To illuminate a dark mind
I communicate without speaking
And I've seen so much, I went blind eyed
[Verse 4: Ren & Molly McKinna]
Why?
I'm living a lie
Living a lie, with the lion inside (I did it to myself)
Living a lie, with the lion inside (I know, I know)
And my mind it is hungry, it's hungry, for my-
Sanity, my sanity, I-
Living a lie, with the lion inside (I did it to myself)
Living a lie, with the lion inside (I know, I know)
And my mind it is hungry, and I don't why
[Post-Verse: Ren & Molly McKinna]
Pressure drop
Deep breathe
Time stops
A broken, et cetera, dot, dot, dot
Pressure drop
Pressure drop
Pressure drop
I feel it, consuming, I can't stop
Dot, dot, dot, the lines join the dots
And I'm tying knots (I did it to myself)
And divide and multiply
Square the root of Pi
Beat the puzzle (I know, I know)
I tried to keep my mind focused on the line
[Outro: Ren & Molly McKinna]
Hopscotch and Pop Rocks
I take shots of tear drops (I did it to myself)
When I drop, a pill pop (I know, I know)
I find peace, and time stops
(I know, I know, I know, I kn-)
It makes me so happy to be able to be a witness of these small, yet large figments of the stream of consciousness coming from this brain. Every now and then I recognize my own way of 'puzzling with possibilities' in my head, especially when it comes to the search within the misty, sometimes dark, world of illness and health. Someone wrote that he feels 'at home' with Ren. I have that too. I find in you a very pleasant mix of amazement and recognition/home coming, Ren. Wish I knew you. Thank you.
This track too needs more views.
Ren is an Angel - he knows it too, he often alludes to it in his lyrics and writings - here to defeat the forces of evil by bringing Light to the Darkness both within ourselves and the greedy corporate world- how many 17 year olds make such a declaration? He's rapidly building his army of Renegades, sowing the messages into our souls, igniting that spark within us that we are all here for something more and uniting us. As we have seen with the backlash we gave to CNN in support of Ren and his work, together we are already a formidable force with Archangel Ren at the helm
He is a angel.
That verse adapted from Blind Eyed is pure gold. You never dissapoint Ren, what an artist you are!!
Cheers from Argentina, mate!
I have listened to all of Rens songs including those from his first group fox; this is by far one of his deepest song
a year later im back listening to this masterpiece ; still in awe.
This song guts me in the best way!
God this is so beautiful, Rens music and videos touch my soul. I think my mind is leaking 😢............. solitude.........🤷........... is so depleting. Wow that hits hard with me.
Somebody stop this man, he can't keep getting away with it.
No... NO ONE stop this man... he is the epitome of perfection.
That was so hypnotizing. I felt so relaxed watching that and hearing those lyrics gave me goosebumps.
This just goes way to hard. Absolutely brilliant 🎉 thank you Ren and molly
Such an underrated gem 🔥
Heard this yesterday and now it’s one of my favourites ☺️
Don't know HOW I missed this until now.
It's a symphony of feelings...that piano just breaks my heart! Proof that simple...with spaces...can access those places...we ALL try to keep for ourselves...cause we ALL hide our pain from the world...until freckled angels...leave us no choice...we just HAVE 2 give voice...
And this? This does it with joy!
Congrats boys n girls (and I CAN say that cause I'm old...Lol)...
You've crafted a soulful.
And now MY soul is full.
Xx
I'm so in love with this depressing piece.
As I discover more and more of your amazing ( and prolific and varied) musical output Ren, the more impressed I am.
Music is such a wonderful healing and uplifting 'thing' and you and your poetry are truly special.
Thanks for giving....
.....get well soon.
Be wonderful to see you in Scotland....🙂❤👍
Beauty comes in many forms, Ren just looks right into your soul and brings all of them.
That piano is sublime and you, precious Ren, are divine ❤
It's outrageous that this doesn't have 10M views.
You’re just about blowing my socks off and you’re a time traveling angel
I hope Ren decides to search his old hard drive again.
Demo's Vol 1 & 2 are my favorites.
❤🩹
He has Demo’s 3 on the way 👏👏👏👏😊
@@jorice5528🎉
the mirror image symbolizes who we are. we are ignoring the ignorance of ourselves. we dont want too acknowledge who we really are...
One of your most underrated songs. You both sound amazing.
Isn’t this a sheer intense masterpiece
Every time i listen to it i just stop in awe like seriously Ren your fans are blown away🙌🏼🫶💯
I'm in the midst of a lot of challenges. Thank you, Ren. Thank you for helping rewaken my inner-self. You help me reconnect with my whole person and get me out of my head - where all of my pain originates. Sincerely, I thank you from the depths of my being.
not me crying at this song again, you're one of a kind dude
Lovely tune with molly, soothing 🇬🇧👍
‘i wanted the physical to match the psychological’ that hit like a ton of bricks wow. caught me off guard a-bit though
Damn! Each time I discover a Ren song, I subconsciously adjust my expectations to not anticipate such a high, but somehow EVERY DAMN TIME he manages to make me experience a whole spectrum of emotions and tears me appart in a new way!❤
Everything I've seen of yours, Ren, just leaves my jaw on the floor. With all that you create you are reaching people on a level few artists can achieve with a single song, let alone their entire output. Thank you.
Love you Ren. Your works are getting better and better.
I got really emotional listening to this song and watching this videoclip... what a piece of art!! I love your music Ren, it speaks to the heart.
This song is insane
There are few things in this world that make me feel high without chemical substances. This song is one of them. When a song hits me lyrically and the melody, accompanying music and sounds are all singing to each other, I can actually feel high. I love the deliberate breaths through-out this, first slow and agonizing, anxiety-ridden, angry, and then back to something resembling calm or sedated...with a drug, pressure drop, whatever it is we need to get us out of that insanity, if only for a moment. Truly incredible. Thanks, Ren!
The Blind Eyed references in the second verse were 🔥🔥 actual lyrical genius
soooo underrated, def one of my favorites rn
This is called art folks,,, pure art.
The Blind Eyed lyrics 🔥🔥 when i heard this song for the first time i just screamed "THATS JUST THE WAY LIFE GOES SOMETIMES", it was great😅
your poetic lyrical skills is something to highly admire
this is the most beautiful way of expressing pain
This is beautiful (as usual). Also thank you, Samuel Perry Falvey for the nod to Magritte - one of my favorite paintings
I know that music is classified as art as a general rule of thumb but this is ART it touches all senses for me not just not just in the sense of visualisation or hearing
Ive only just discovered this Ren track. Its beautiful ❤
Wow. This is moving. Something is changing in my brain hearing your music.
Wow, I do love your style ,originality storytelling,, never stop being Ren ....
