I've posted this a couple of times when I see reactors do this song and now it's your turn... this song, to me, is sort of like the life of NF. He sits there and thinks to himself and talks to himself about how much he hates himself and is depressed and anxious and has all kinds of emotions going on. He's saying this all in his head and then when the song picks up, it's almost like the scene in WHEN I GROW UP where he's on stage and the crowd erupts. This is the part where he's saying it out loud for all of us to hear it. This is him performing how much he hates himself and we all eat it up like he's just doing music and then much like WHEN I GROW UP, when he steps off stage and is by the sink all alone, the music fades away and the pain is still there.. he still hates himself. He's still alone. He doesn't have to perform it and feel like he's doing anyone a service because he still hates himself... listen to the song again with this perspective and you might understand how I take it a little better. He talks to himself and writes his songs about his feelings, he then performs it and has hype when he does, and then when he gets off stage he still has the feelings of hating himself. Such a powerful song. I love this album so much.
I agree. A large part of me wishes there was a way to create the perfect letter addressed to Nate from his most loyal fans explaining to him how much his music means, has and always will mean to us no matter if he decides to never write another song or perform another concert. I fear he feels like he will be abandoning those who are saved by his music if he stops and decides to put 100% of himself into his family and life. Maybe if he knew that millions of his fans expressed to him that it would be a bummer if he decided to take a long long break but we would totally understand. I love him and how his music has helped me in life but i dont feel like its right for me to anticipate his next album year after year if he needs to stay struggling to be able to create it
@Matthew Taylor he even mentions that in his songs where we all love him for his struggles and if he isn't struggling, how can he keep making music. It is a sad thing to think about and I know damn well that even if he never made another song, I'll blast everything he's made so far.
This song saved my life. I was at the end of trying to explain to my husband and parents where I was. I didn’t feel believed. I sent them this song and they got me help immediately.
After of all the times I have listened to this song, I still cry when I hear it. Most reactions I see of this talk about having hope and pushing through, but until today I never really heard anyone analyze and talk about just how much anguish NF went through. Life is real, and he's not the only one going through it. It hits harder and harder each time, and no matter what it's just about pushing harder and harder than what's in front of us, or in this case inside of us...
I've been on NF for about 2 years now and I just love the way you've went through this journey have slowly been able to visualize what he's actually saying... it's not always easy to interpret is music and I appreciate the way you do.
Thank you so much for listening Interlude first. It really frames the song. I’ve seen reactors just go into Hate Myself and they don’t understand what he’s trying to lay down.
That was a really good breakdown of this song. Thank you for taking your time and giving us your thoughts. Did you catch the tie in to Hope.? I had never put that together but he actually says, "What is success when hope has left you?" That is the exact definition of his song, Hope and success and it is right here in Hate Myself.
I love this song so much! The amazing rapid drum beat is so cool and keeps it light, but the message of this is so deep and sad. There are many times in my life that I've hated myself. I know now that I'm not the only one. Great breakdown and insights on this!
I love NF. His music and lyrics are incredible and this song is a clear example. But it is also a clear example of why I can't listen to his music too much. It keeps me captured in such a dark mind space and it's just not healthy for me. Last time I listened to this song was about two or three years ago and now that NF is dropping new music I've started to re-explore all of his stuff. It still manages hits hard in different ways.
You gotta react to Ren "HI Ren". He is on a whole different level of talent. I have never seen anything like him. You want Real, and Deep.... give him a look yo!
Hey man, are you going to go back to clouds mixtape at the end? I know you’ve done it already but it’ll hit different after you’ve gone through the journey. Good sheesh tho 💯
Don, if you want to watch a great interview that Nate does watch "NME- In Conversation". This is from 3 years ago. NF doesn't like doing interviews at all. It messes with his anxiety. I watched another interview from when he was in Germany. That interviewer was wack and had no idea about him or his music really. He has a few interviews on UA-cam, but the one I gave you is the best one out there.
Fkn A dude....I got patience but tested the hell out of it lol like got maybe a minute in song and couldn't do anymore....if anything talk over it or something...idfk but man....jeeze
Like in changes.... He says he knows what he needs but he won't receive. The hound of heaven is chasing him but he fears being still and receiving the lordship and peace and forgiveness of His Maker. He prays but can't receive. God tells him he is not captured... That freedom is in his hands. But he can't bring himself to give in and trust that Jesus will hold him up.

Never thought that deep
I concur

This is one of the songs i honestly can relate a bit to much to.
nf stated in a tweet that sometime in February is when he is expecting to drop some more music cant wait. Great reaction and breakdown
Thanks for the info! And thank you
This song saved my life. I was at the end of trying to explain to my husband and parents where I was. I didn’t feel believed. I sent them this song and they got me help immediately.
How are you doing now?
@@thingsofinterest603 in a much better place and not even a thought of suicide since getting actual help. Thanks for asking

REAL that’s why people love NF in this fake world 🌎
Ouuu I see you!!
I've been on NF for about 2 years now and I just love the way you've went through this journey have slowly been able to visualize what he's actually saying... it's not always easy to interpret is music and I appreciate the way you do.
Thank you so much for listening Interlude first. It really frames the song. I’ve seen reactors just go into Hate Myself and they don’t understand what he’s trying to lay down.
Awesome breakdown! Appreciate your NF reactions. Can't wait till his new stuff drops next month and you react. 🔥🔥🔥
Appreciate that! Same here
I really put everything aside to watch your nf reactions. You get all the bars. Sure that I'll enjoy this one 2
Much love thank you!

NF doesn't do a lot of interviews, but there is one great one on the yt channel NME called NF In Conversation.
So If I make that happen it’ll be that more epic! 😅
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 #nfrealmusic
I love this song so much! The amazing rapid drum beat is so cool and keeps it light, but the message of this is so deep and sad. There are many times in my life that I've hated myself. I know now that I'm not the only one.
Great breakdown and insights on this!
That last verse is one of my favorites of all time 🔥
Honesty I wish I had this song when I've been at that point in my life... but it has helped everytime I do get to a low point
Great reaction!! Love your breakdown and I would absolutely watch an interview if you could do that!!! It was be insanely good!!
Stay tuned !!
NF is Legendary..
Your thoughts and theories spot on!
One of the absolute best reactions to this one! Thank you
Love how you really take the time to catch all the bars great reaction darlin
It’s like sometimes we may not even realize a lot of the choices we make and the way e act is because we are unhappy with ourselves or hate ourselves
Great Reaction! One of my fav NF songs. Cheers!! ... REQUEST: Ren "Hi Ren"

Like in changes.... He says he knows what he needs but he won't receive.
The hound of heaven is chasing him but he fears being still and receiving the lordship and peace and forgiveness of His Maker.
He prays but can't receive. God tells him he is not captured... That freedom is in his hands. But he can't bring himself to give in and trust that Jesus will hold him up.
