Just wanted to point out, at the end he actually says “I’m just hoping that God helps me TO stop stressing”, not just. I missed it the first few times I heard it and I especially would have if I watched this video that had the wrong lyric, it would probably make a little more sense after knowing that. Love the content bro
Been wanting to make this comment for quite some time, falling in reverse got me here but your journey with nf made me stay, love how you think when it comes to the lyrics and how you remember stuff from previous songs. Really proofs that you're really hearing and feeling the music which is all for me. Nothing but love for this channel. Well done mate. Also have to give credit on the confidence or need if you get me of you showing your emotions. Well done again. Fucking hell love it
Thank you so much 🙏 Tbh I’ve always retained information quickly but most of my life it’s been a burden because my brain is a never ending tornado. But this “job” forces me to recall previous bars or concepts quickly, so it’s almost becoming therapy for me! To not only be happy doing this but to be recognised for doing it well is crazy to me. So thank you for this comment 🤝
I normally lurk here but I've had a realization. So as you have pointed out in past NF reactions there's lots of contradictions in his lyrics. Here's the thing though: if you have ever done any kind of introspection yourself you realize that you most likely have lots of these conflicting thoughts in your head as well. So basically they don't make him less real and it doesn't mean that he's written parts of the lyrics years later, it means that while he's writing he's ruminating and ruminating on his emotions in order to describe them and as his thoughts keep evolving further he might be editing and re-editing the bars a lot until his OCD is satisfied. l think it actually makes it more real and shows each direction and nuance that his mind takes while processing his feelings without filtering out directions that may not fit the overarching "narrative" because those directions still exist and are still valid. If you actually took the time to read through this, thanks and have a good rest of your day :)
I thought about this also and could not have said it better! I've struggled with opposing thoughts for years. He explained this in Why and even asked himself what the problem was. His answer was he didn't know what the problem was. I think it's tons of self-doubt, insecurities, and self-hatred which we get a very close look at in Hate Myself.
Also he mentioned in an earlier video that if writing is his therapy then the issue is fixed. Which isn't the case. Therapy is meant to help urges or come to an understanding with your thoughts not immediately fix it. Like if I'm addicted to alcohol and go to AA I'm not automatically not an alcoholic, the problem with addiction will always be there. They are simply there to hold accountability and help suppress the urges. Anyways just food for thought.
that's exactly what happens in my raps, when I write about how I feel, I read it back and I'm like.... I'm contradicting myself here, so that's also therputic for me
Yeah so that was the secondary option I gave to him potentially writing these lyrics years apart in some songs. His conflicting feelings are pretty clear and like I said in the reaction, it’s something we all go through from time to time!
There's at least one interview where he says he loves writing and being in the studio recording but doesn't like the touring/shows as much. He loves the fans and knows it's a part of it being in front of people has given him anxiety in the past. Also, others have said the same, lyrics videos generally have a handful of errors. The one at the end is "I'm just hopin' that God helps me to stop stressin'."
Every time I watch your reactions, my heart breaks and heals again. You're really listening and hearing so much. Your perspective is so interesting, but I can relate to finding so much of Nate in myself.... I think we all do. He's super relatable...
Teddifer, Teddmeister, Teddster, best bearded person, "he who gives a propper reaction", pauses and delivers teducation, thrower of items and professionell noisemaker😂might've gotten a little carried away🤣😂🤣
Yeah I know people have already said it, and you are planning on it, but you def need to hear The Search as a whole soon. Songs like Nate, Only, Hate Myself, all just insane. The whole album is a masterpiece behind facing your personal issues head on. It's the pain and struggle it takes to dive so deep into yourself and your flaws. Really good stuff.
Crazy how the beat does so much but at the same time never distracts you from the lyrics. Its so genius! So glad when you do longer reactions, you’re catching a lot of stuff i never realized myself and it’s making me love NF even more. Keep it up brother🙏
The Search was released 2+ years before Nate had his kid and was probably written even earlier than that. I think he's just talking about people my guy. As an artist, I'd imagine everyone wants to talk to you, and we as humans know, sometimes we just don't want to talk to people and that's okay. Lol
Not that it really matters but he actually says: "some days, i don't wanna see OR have a bunch of people to impress" I don't know why the guy doing the lyrics put ya instead of or but yeah
Glad to see your reaction of this one. I'm a huge fan of NF, and this is, hands down, my favorite one of his thus far... I relate to alot of his lyrics, but this song I relate to every word! Once again bro, great vid. Still as enjoyable as the first one of your reactions I stumbled across. Big ups! Keep em coming! 👏👏👏
Another great one… I like watching your reactions to NF. I enjoy how you break things down because you’re also feeding us brain food. Regardless of it being what the song means or not (as you’ve stated), you always have some good insights on some things, like I didn’t really pay mind to the Up, down, Heaven, hell listening to this before, but it makes sense as well. It’s nice to see things from different perspectives, so it’s enjoyed to see how you react to videos since you break them down that way
It really bothers me when people make the list for the journey and they leave out the whole album. I feel like the other albums have filler tracks that don't follow the journey but the search is really an album he spent so much time on to make it all go together. You skip some and think you're good but then you go back and listen and they all go together. Kinda like when you skipped leave me alone because the list had it later when it really should've been right after the search. Love the reactions and love that you bring a different look on things I've heard thousands of times and didn't pay much attention to. Like said by someone else, he doesn't say just stop stressing, he says to stop stressing. Keep it up!
Getting closer to 'Story', 100% one of the most insane music videos you will see, not even visuals but just the impact. Looking forward to that reaction
Their is actual research on the subject of people who are pessimist will give credit to "luck" when they succeed, and blame themselves when they fail. My life story, and I thought I was an optimist. Go figure.
Some of these lyrics are slightly off. At the end of his third verse when it said "I'm just hoping that God helps me just stop stressing" it's actually mean to be "I'm just hoping that God helps me to stop stressing" which doesnt seem like a big difference, but when you're approaching how you were with thinking that perhaps God was'nt saying that to him but he was instead talking to himself it makes a big difference. It's also one less use of the word "just"
Nice reaction o/ However, I will say that I believe the video you watched got a few lines incorrect on the actual lyrics. One of which you talked about for a little bit, and it's the part where the lyric video says: "I'm just hoping that God helps me just stop stressing". I don't think that's what NF actually says... I've always heard it as: "I'm just hoping that God helps me to stop stressing". Also, I do like your comment about how it seems like NF hasn't been talking to God, or feeling as close to God lately while he was writing this album, because it does kinda feel like that, and in Change, he talks about talking to God more ("last year I felt suicidal, this year I might do something different like talking to God more")... Another thing that I haven't seen any reactor point out yet, is that there is a song on The Search album that I don't believe is on your list to react to. But, the song is titled Let Me Go, and in that song, NF asks God if "Hope" is real, and if it is, he wants God to introduce "Hope" to him. And now, the latest album is called Hope, with the first song on the album being about Hope finding NF.. That's something small that I thought was pretty cute to see lol -edit to fix typo ;w;
Yo Ted, got an idea for you. What if you would transfer the audio of these reaction to a spotify podcast format so people who are mostly on the go or don't have steady internet for youtube can still listen to your reaction. With the videoclips it might not be as handy bc you also react to the clip, but especially with these lyrics video's it could work just fine. Keep up the good work man 🙌🔥
@@SaddleLight i hate these lyric videos because they always mess up lines, and Teddy has been hung up on more than one of these typos. very infuriating watching him rag on NF's lyrics when its the video thats at fault haha
❤ if I may... I'm from the Midwest just as NF is and honestly I think it is just part of our way of communicating. I laughed out loud when I thought about how many times I use the word "just" in everyday speak 😂 perhaps you are correct from a writing standpoint however I think it's more that it's just kind of how we talk ❤
That’s a fair point actually since I’ve come across a lot of Nate’s bars that seem almost conversational like he’s just caught himself talking in the booth haha. I love that though it shows sincerity! Sending love to the Midwest!
@@TeddyGreyOS ❤️❤️❤️😘 ( side note: if you look at the map of the US we are actually in the heart of the country... 😂. It seems the people here are holding onto MANY days gone by; for what reason I have no clue 🤦) thanks for your reply to my comment YOU'RE ONE OF MY FAVORITE REACTORS ❤️❤️
You should really check out Xikers HOUSE OF TRICKY : Doorbell Ringing Preview!! They are the little brother group of ATEEZ and will debut this month on the 30th!! The whole debut album is insane!
I love your reaction videos. I'm sure you have heard of ren. Have you done the hi ren song? I think it would be good if you haven't. Keep it up . Keep it real. 💯
I really wanna point out that the lyrics on this video aren't exactly correct. It's not "I don't wanna see ya" it's "I don't wanna see or" which makes the rhyme even more impressive to me
another lyric video with wrong lyrics. bleah. "I don't wanna see OR have a bunch of people to impress." "It HITS me in phases" "Hoping that God helps me TO stop stressin"
I actually don't like the lyric videos much. A lot of them get the lyrics wrongs on parts. For instance, when you said "just" three times, the last just isn't in the song. The actual lyrics are I'm just hoping that God helps me to stop stressing. If you continue to do the lyrics videos (please do the clouds and story actual video tho) try not to go off of the lyrics they put down, bc it could be wrong. Just a tip!
@15:4 sometimes God doesn't always help us in every aspect of our lives. Sometimes we are stressed because we are focusing on things outside of God's will. Other times we aren't fully placing our hope and trust in God's provision and letting go of control of stressful situations or aspects of who we think we are, when who we think we "are" isn't who God created us to be.

You should really do this whole album. When you do Hate myself listen to the interlude with it
Yeah, interlude and Hate Myself right after!
Just waiting for DRIFTING, THATS A JOKE, PAID MY DUES, TRUST... its so good to see someone new in the NF circle.
"Trust" will make him go craaaaaazy
@Bringmethanos how could i forget
Why does everyone forget about Nate and LAYERS?
That’s a joke gonna go crazy😊
@@vonnnie005 i cant write every masterclass music of him bro
So here we go again. Woo. I am this time really really certain tho. 100% he says "I just hoping that god helps me TO stop stressin."
Hahaha I got to,d that in the live chat thankfully 😭😂 sometimes these lyric videos are so dead 😂
One of favourite songs from NF.. found NF about 5-6 years ago and I still play his old tunes to this day!
Paralyzed by NF should be the next reaction!
Yesssssss
Also think paid my dues should be in here. I think he'd love it
Why hes doing the Journey
@@joshuaanderson1197 DARNIT JOSHUA. We came hier to concur mit Paralyzed, aber yer suggestion is a 🔥 one to be sure, as well.
I agree it may help you with your questions. Great reactions!!!!
I'm a Simple guy.
I see a Teddy NF reaction, I hit like.
I’m simple too,
I see a comment I like, I hit the heart.
This is wholesome

I can’t wait for your reaction to returns
You need to do Nate! Nate is so important!
Another great song is Trauma 😄
Yes!! Better off watching the official video with CC on. Love your reactions!! 🔥
Yeah I know people have already said it, and you are planning on it, but you def need to hear The Search as a whole soon. Songs like Nate, Only, Hate Myself, all just insane.

Also love I miss the days. When the choir comes in... oof
Returns is one of my favorites too ahhh
Gotta do “layers”
One of my favorite songs by him just puts me in a strange head space of reflecting and thinking. It makes me feel relaxed and at peace. Stange
Crazy how the beat does so much but at the same time never distracts you from the lyrics. Its so genius! So glad when you do longer reactions, you’re catching a lot of stuff i never realized myself and it’s making me love NF even more. Keep it up brother🙏

You ever come to the states....first round is on me. Cheers from Michigan
The whole song is a car scheme. Recurring theme in Nate’s music: it’s a metaphor for his life.
Could you elaborate? I couldn’t see it how is it a car scheme
I would love you to react to Hate myself, that song lowkey saved me ngl
Getting closer to 'Story', 100% one of the most insane music videos you will see, not even visuals but just the impact. Looking forward to that reaction
Same... Although, I will have to curl up in my nest of blankets and stuffed animals to stop the panic
It's poetry
You should really do 'only' as well! 😊
I can’t wait to see your reaction to Let me go by NF. Would love to see you react to PROF
I just wanna see teddy do a sign language interpretation 🤣🤣🤣 like explains what’s said but in his own hand motions I think it would be great 🤣🤘🏼

There were some talks about ren on yesterday’s premiere and on discord 🤞 se might be getting it soon

O, I ment to shout out to NF. His music is great. I'm sure you agree.
There’s no third just… he says “just hope God helps me to stop stressing”, the lyric video is wrong. 14:39
Also PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE REACT TO HI REN
Just hoping that God helps me just stop stressing. It's not a separation there. He just took the, to, from, to just stop stressing.
has he listened to Returns yet??? because...
Is “Hate Myself” on the list you’re going through?
Just the lyrics is good until you get The Story on the Clouds album....have to watch that on play out...sweet cinema.
Love the NF reactions...
He says "Im hoping that god helps me TO stop stressing" not JUST, the lyrics is just messed up there
I really wanna point out that the lyrics on this video aren't exactly correct. It's not "I don't wanna see ya" it's "I don't wanna see or" which makes the rhyme even more impressive to me
Ok

why are lyric videos always slightly wrong 😆

You’re giving the lyric video too much credit. They often mess up his words.
He days TO STOP STRESSING, but the lyric video says just and it’s wrong.
Reading too deep into it bruh
Lyric Videos are so annoying some times.
