Lyrics:
well, do you feel better now?
i thought i’d run until the sky came out
and with the sunlight on my face,
something changed
and just trying to feel alive,
you climbed a mountain -
are you satisfied?
as you stand at the top,
you already want to do this one more time
maybe it’s a gift that i couldn’t recognize
maybe i don’t really need to feel satisfied
maybe it’s a gift that i spend all this time
just trying to feel alive
maybe i don’t really wanna be satisfied
maybe it’s a gift that i couldn’t recognize
maybe this all -
maybe this was all …
and then somebody, somewhere finds the warmth of summer in the songs you write
maybe it’s a gift that i couldn’t recognize:
trying to feel alive

" Here I am on the other side of this, still struggling with making music, still not necessarily feeling whole, but beginning to understand that maybe that's a good thing. Maybe that’s the point. Maybe making music is my way of trying to feel alive, over and over again.” Porters description on the song.
;-;
i love it.
😥 porter doesn't deserve to feel like this... He saved so many people with his music
where do yall check the descriptions?
@@line5815 if you go into his website, and go to pre-order the album, you can look at a brief description of each song as porter sees them.
@@line5815 If you mean the quote it was an interview you can search up on youtube
You’re literally saving lives you’ll never know of.
Mine 🙋♂️
he's the future Avicii
@@thisischetan he's no future avicii, he's porter robinson. No diss to avicii tho, its just that porter is being himself. ♥
@@thisischetan stop comparing everyone and every song to Avicii. This song infact sounds more like something from "The Slip - Eisenhower" album
@@Makhwax what the fuck? when did i compare? I'm just saying that porter has something unique in his music like avicii had. he deserves more. he's not like something marshmello who releases tons of stupid music every month. think before saying something.
IM HERE. WE FINALLY MADE IT TO NURTURE
We were here
We have been waiting 7 years for this and it feels nurturing
we made it my friend.
@@dessertoni count down on community post definitely make it feels longer
I’m here tooo!
This whole album feels like a healing ache, like old wounds closing as the sun soaks into your skin. Hurts, but in such a good way.
This is legit the best description of nurture
One could even say, nurturing the wound
"and then somebody, somewhere finds the warmth of summer in the songs you write"
THIS IS US PORTER.
THIS IS US.
Thank you for bringing and sharing Nurture to us. We love you 💖
"Maybe I don't really need to feel satisfied"
I hope every creative person is able to embrace that sentiment bc it just goes to show that you'll always have room to grow and evolve as an artist and it's such a beautiful note to end this album off on
Thank you so much Porter, this album genuinely means so much to me
Thank you.
thank you for this
ua-cam.com/video/Zx6xGB4wzHo/v-deo.html
i almost cried. thank you so much
Well said ❤️
My dad suddenly passed away last week. Been listening to Porter Robinson "Look at the Sky" on repeat ever since. This new song of his, "Trying to feel Alive" hits hard but in an uplifting way.
Thank you Porter. ❤
Hang tight you brave soul ❤️
Sorry for your loss, Porter'h music also helps me with my losses. His music is healing when you think you're too broken to fix
Hey fam, hope you're in a better place mentally and physically now. My father means a lot to me, so I cant imagine how much losing him could hurt. Im so very sorry you had to go through that. I pray that youre in a good place now.
Trying to feel alive, feels like the end credits to a movie, where the protagonist is finally at peace with themselves, after overcoming their personal struggles.
I also like how we hear his real voice I'm this song - it's like he finally doesn't have to hide behind mask anymore.
There's 2 MVs from Porter that I can relate this to, and it's kinda surprising that "Easy" MV fits these more ways than "Shelter" do.
It's the last song of the album so it fits perfectly
lowkey would be awesome if his live set would be based on a anime
Wonder if it would have worked for Bojack
I want to cry... laugh... think... write... scream... jump... sing... love... walk... look... compose... recite...I just want to do it all... I have so many good feelings right now, it's like I know exactly what you are missing and give it all to you with each song....
You're not conscious of time, you don't want the last note to come, the last song, the last verse and at the same time if you want, to start the journey all over again.It was worth waiting more than a year.
My soul is Nourished
❤️🌳🕊️☁️☃️🔥🌊👩🏻🍼❤️
2014: Give life to a world that's our own
2021: A gift that I couldn’t recognize: trying to feel alive
Nurture Endings:
Best Ending: Trying To Feel Alive
Secret Ending: Fullmoon Lullaby
Actual Ending: Goodbye To A World (Nurture Live Edit)
_I found this very accurate._
Goodbye to a world
"Worlds"
And here is the best album of the year plus decade
at least until porter releases another album this decade
@@BlueElement true he could do that
@@hellmannsmayonnaise1152 yeah about that....
@@BlueElement you can talk bout that
This is easily Porter Robinson’s magnum opus, the epitome and autonomy of his music is in this song. This song is what Porter Robinson means to me. Simple, cute, beautiful, rugged, and worthwhile arrangements and melodies. Harmonicas, kalimbas, Microsoft synthesizers, and the simplicity of all of that is in this masterwork.
This album is emotion in the form of sound.
Listening to this on a friday morning saying to myself, 'this is going to be the best day of my life'
and Porter finished this album with his own voice, without a pitch corrector, it's so beautiful, really, as if everything was going towards this, an incredible sense of completeness, and his voice sounds so warm and kind, thanks God for Porter, I seemed to have been waiting for this album all my life, I am so happy listening to this
i’ve never felt happier to be alive than right now. just spent 10 minutes crying to this song after what was the best week i’ve had in years. don’t give up on life; it’s more worth it than i would have ever imagined 💜
I live a simple life. I see a Porter Robinson song posted a minute ago, I click
No need to rush, you know its gonna be good ❤
One of my favorite things is I have always seen these comments on anything porter puts out since I have been listening to him (from worlds). Its nice to know not everything changes
@@sharrpshooter1 Fr! As the views definitely aren’t the same as they were years ago, nice to know people still see porter’s work the same now as it was
I could have been born in any century.
But I was born in a century where this masterpiece exists.
I’m so lucky.
WE are so lucky.
Thank you Porter~
Born too early to travel the galaxy,
born too late to explore new lands,
born just in time to experience Porter Robinson.
I don't know what's the future for Porter Robinson is but I know he'll be happy knowing that he left us the greatest gift anyone can ask for the journey to Nuture was unbelievable so many memories listing to every song was cherishing and now that I am here at the end it makes me so happy thank you Porter Robinson for everything these past years thank you thank you thank you... for everything.
nuture
nuture
I think there is more music in the future for porter, this album seems like it's him finally relearning how to love making music again
You're here at the end? We aint even gotten to see the live show yet! We're just getting started
This song makes me feel like a child running in a field of grass, I love it so much
Trying To Feel Alive finally hit a million views! I’m so proud of this song since it’s the perfect way to end nurture. Congrats TTFA on this huge achievement!
Porter Robinson releasing all these new songs all at once. Man, this is what Christmas felt like all those years ago.
That's what albums are :)
@@nazurin5982 it still came as a surprise! I thought the last song in Nurture was Musician, then he drops more!
@@AkaitoTempest ever heard of twitter? He announced the tracklist before releasing the album
@@volttheunknown ah, I might've missed that announcement. my bad~
@@AkaitoTempest yeah, he also announces some interviews and other cool stuff
this song sound like you wake up in the morning on the day you will have a happy family trip to the nature.
Hey porter, you saved a life. I cannot thank you enough. Not all heroes wear capes
I’m really proud of you. Keep going. Keep striving. 💜
A friend I met online introduced me to Porter Robinson. And I miss talking to the guy cause he truly had a heartfelt soul.. his music was incredibly unique, and he had enormous dreams that personally inspired me to go the path im on now, but he's been like erased from the internet.. I hope to God I get to hear from him one day and get a chance to go with him to one of your Shows..
Well, do you feel better now?
I thought I'd run until the sky came out
And with the sunlight on my face
Something changed
And just trying to feel alive
We climbed a mountain, are you satisfied?
As you stand at the top
You already wanna do this
One more time
Maybe it's the gift that I couldn't recognize
Maybe I don't really need to feel satisfied
Maybe it's a gift that I spend all this time
Just trying to feel alive
Maybe I don't really want to be satisfied
Maybe it's the gift that I couldn't recognize
Maybe this is all, maybe this was all
Then somebody somewhere finds
The warmth of summer in the songs you write
Maybe it's a gift that I couldn't recognize
Trying to feel alive
I feel so blessed to have been born within the same timeframe of Porter Robinson's music being released
I love this comment so much ^^ I couldn't agree more
Look around, look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now ❤️
yes me too
Right!?
My ears are blessed
Somebody needs to combine this with Is there really no happiness?
yeah, so much. Both songs feel like a same background
Trying to listen to all the songs he’s dropping all at once 😭😭😭💕
I can feel the passion he’s singing with from 2:48 - 3:18. The way he’s breathing through each lyric. It’s heavy man
yes that is the best part imo
Here we go ladies and gents, a journey awaits us.
Listening to worlds and nurture shows such a fucking personal growth and story that no one but Porter will really know the full story too. You can tell how much he has changed in the last 6 years yet, still retains some familiar sounds
I just had a revelation about this song. To me, it's about how as a creative, you always strive for more and more, to try and make yourself, well, feel alive, and come alive but when you actually accomplish something being so self critical that you aren't actually able to fully embrace your work. So you do it again and again, in a never ending cycle of struggle and trying to improve to try and chase that feeling of "I finally made it". But it just never comes, because you always want more out of your work. The ending makes me cry every time though, because it's the realization that maybe it's not the art itself will make you feel alive, but who you can impact with it that truly makes you come alive.
The little robot voice thing brings so much to the song
"And then somebody somewhere finds
The warmth of summer in the songs you write"
Yeah that's exactly why we make something and leave it behind into this world.
This song sounds like a caterpillar being born and exploring the world around it
Then it becomes a 🦋
@@PieMK6R okay that's adorable
What
At the very end Porter realized that not being satisfied, that the attempt to feel alive, was what keeps him moving forward what a lovely and perfect final song to this nurturing album
AHHHHH. Porter you can’t tease us like this. Im dying for Friday to happen. It’s 8pm here in Alaska still.
@AP Carlos 10000vr we still have sun up until 10pm lol
@AP Carlos 10000vr nah that’s a good thing! More vitamin D hah. Eventually the sun won’t go down for a few months
@AP Carlos 10000vr oh I see now haha.
Woah, you’re from Alaska too?!! I’m currently in Fairbanks, I can’t wait for the rest to drop!!
the album already dropped tho?
Nurture heals because it's so genuine. sometimes feelings of insecurity lead to an iron will, and hard times teach you to appreciate the good in life. Thank you Porter for sharing your life with so many, and saving so many with your music. This album is not what I expected, but what I need
these five last tracks I've been crying, like really, really crying, and I haven't cried in a long, long time... this album spoke to me in a very personal way, and It changed my mind in so many ways, just listening to this album and thinking in all that it means. thank you porter, I'm still crying... thank you for this beautiful album.
Let the floodgates open my guy. Hope you’re doing good 💜
This just makes me dream of a time when I’ll get to hang out with my friends again and we are all laughing together around a campfire but there’s this inner peace, this moment where time just stops and I realise this is the feeling of being alive. I’ve been surviving for this moment.
Congratulations ! You have finished your first listen of Nurture. Have fun with the rest of them :)
this album felt like a warm hug from Porter to me. almost every lyric of this album made me felt like it was written to me; i felt so attached that i cried the whole journey. i just hope Porter knows that he reached deep into the heart of a 17 year old depressed teen, and he make him feel more alive than ever with his music
💜
this album means so fucking much to me. even the wait itself was kind of a spiritual journey because a lot of the singles dropped around the same time as some of my personal breakthroughs. i didn't make music when this album dropped, but i've struggled a lot with this sort of self-destructive type-A behavior and so i'm intimately familiar with a lot of the themes in this album. whenever i slip into old habits, this album reminds me what the spark i live for feels like.
from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much, porter. i don't know where i'd be without this album
thank you so much for this album. dont know how i missed it but found it at the right time.
Sending you all the good vibes, you got this
Es como si una brisa te abrazara fuerte, como si te reconfortara, como si volvieras a todos los momentos más bonitos que has vivido, como si por un momento estuvieras muy bien, caminando en algún lugar, en algún momento.
Gracias Porter por haberme abrazado en la madrugada y por alentarme a seguir sonriendo
nurture is one of the best albums ive heard
Thank you Porter, for staying alive, and encouraging us to do the same.
I'm glad we are all alive to experience the release of this album
We found the warmth.
Thank you for your gift.
Nurture is perfect.
And you did just that,
For us.
Do you feel alive yet?
I hope you do.
If not today,
Someday
When the choir thing came in I just died
Favourite part 💜
Omg it HITS
@@Wewillwaitforthis whats a choir
@@oldchannel1312 think they were talking about 1:40
Most underrated song on the album imo
This album is an example of how telling to a person to stop feeling sad actually works.
At the end of this whole album i just took a deep breath, looked up at the sky, wiped tears off, and finally felt calm for real.
God, that Harmonica tho, I think this is the first time I ever cried from a piece of music
Thank you so much Porter, I'm pretty much alive right now.
I can envision Porter having so much fun performing this song live. I’d love to experience that moment.
Idk what it is but this man's music just has an otherworldly quality to it. It almost brings on a feeling of nostalgia without actually making me reflect on anything from the past. It's weird yet comforting. I wish more people appreciated you for more then the "Goodbye to a World" meme. Keep up the amazing work.
This song came at the PERFECT time. I'm finally starting to find purpose in my life and live for the things I want to do. It's taken me years of struggle, depression and bouts with suicidal ideations. But maybe all that was worth it, maybe all of that was to mold me into the person I'm meant to be. Maybe it's okay I'm never satisfied with experiencing something and have to keep doing more and more until I've seen all I can. Maybe it's a gift that I'm still trying to feel alive. This song shows me that my pain, my struggles, were always gifts to me. They showed me how strong I am and gave me purpose in my life. Fuck, this song is the one that resonates with me the most at this current moment in my life. Thank you, Porter.
I'm literally grateful for being alive
When life is sucks, you will be grateful after hear this song
Thank you Porter.
Thank you for sticking around 💜
Out of the more than 500 albums I’ve listened to, this one is my absolute favorite. Despite that, it’s almost difficult to listen to. It’s incredibly intense for me emotionally. It’s like staring at the sun.
This song is so amazing. These songs give me so much inspiration!

Side note: I remember one night where I decided to try out a new burger place that was about a 30min drive for me, so I got in the car and turned the radio way up and played this song over and over again. It was so great driving at night with the windows down, feeling the nice cool breeze, looking at the night sky while having this song was blasting through the radio, driving to a new area and seeing new places, while also being very excited for my burger. Both the drive there and back was so much fun! Despite the fact that my life is very rocky at the moment, this little adventure made me so happy. Ah, good times. It really is the simple things that make life great
I don’t think I can state with words just how much my life has been impacted by the incredible music you create. I first heard your music back when I was still in freshman year of high school, it filled me with a feeling I can’t really describe, it had so much soul in it. I continued to listen to it throughout high school, I don’t think I went a single day without at least one of your songs playing in my crappy knock off earbuds from the dollar store. Even today I still listen to each of your songs constantly. The music you make has given me so much comfort and joy over the years that I couldn’t possibly in my life hope to repay you for what you have done for me. I’m completely serious when I say that I cannot imagine where I would be without it. Truly, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for everything you have done, both for me and for others. Thank you, Porter Robinson.
Porter, this song means more to me than a lot of people will ever know. I've just came out as trans and for the first time in my life I'm starting to feel alive. Despite still struggling a lot, I'm happy that I'm here.
I've spent 23 years trying to exist but knowing something wasn't right and I'm still trying to climb that mountain again. I'm gunna keep slipping and falling but I'm not doing it because I "should" anymore, I'm doing it because it makes me feel more and more alive the further I get.
So, thankyou for your music, the gifts you give us 💖
The perfect ending credits song.
May everyone who reads this feel the sun that will shine after the storm of whatever you are going through, no matter how big or small. It’s the journey that makes us alive. Can’t wait to celebrate and dance with everyone to Nurture live.
thank you porter robinson the release of this album was so important during the time of its release in my life. it was divine timing
There's a word that describes this perfect album: heartwarming
Thank you Porter, I can not use words to let everyone know how blessed I feel with this masterpiece
Hope everyone has a great time, see ya later!
What a fucking journey I been on. No skips, no fast forwards, no spoiling myself to hear the "drops" listening from start to finish. This felt like a once in a lifetime journey. I haven't listen to any of the past albums but u HAVE heard the singles from most of them, so this is my first ever listen, and oh my fucking goodness
.. I am not exaggerating when I cried the whole way through... this is probably the first I have ever felt so... "happy"... this is.... i just have no words for this. Yes i do... Dreamy. euphoric. Fantastical. I have been feeling so...... dead for the past decade.... and this album is what did it for me... the "digital world" feel. That escapism. ...i.... -shedding tears-... 😭😭😭😭...
bro said fuck it and started talking like an anime character💀
@@jojur2545 man shut up lmaoo
@@Sunkhrist nah its ok man, a little awkward but its ight i get you
A life saved.
You said during second sky this was super under rated even though it's your favorite song you ever wrote, and I'm here to say it's mine too. I'm one of the somebodies, somewhere, who found the warmth of summer in the songs you write.
It is a perfect closer to a beautiful album.
so gład you brought thïs here, this søng feels like such ā perfect credits and wrap to such ā healing âlbum such as nurture 🥺💕
hearing this song... made me realize that no matter what I've been through, life still goes on. life and time will never stop just to cry with me. i have to move on no matter how hard it is. this song made me feel grateful to be alive, grateful to be born in this beautiful world...
thank you, porter robinson. been a fan since shelter ❤
Man the new album is so underrated I hope more people listen to all the songs in the new album, I'll definitely share it with my friends.
Yo this song slaps so hard. Nurture is PERFECT for listening while playing minecraft. Damn porter you exceeded our already insanely high expectations
The musician one is really sounds like c418 wait song
Nurture is good for everything
The songs hit even harder when you've been playing for years and you look back at everything you've done up to this moment, whether it's a new world or it's the one you've been working on since forever, whether you've been playing alone or with friends, whether it's survival or creative, whether you even have your own world or you play on public servers...
Minecraft has come a long way...
Porter has come a long way...
We've all come a long way...
agree!!! This the typa song i strive to make, porter is my biggest inspiration!
I swear some day this will blow up. There is something extra special about this song that just can’t be put into words.
something very important to me comes to an end today, just after the end of the nurture era. thanks for the past few years, this made for a good soundtrack leading up to it.
I really like the way him breathing in for air between sentences mixes with the music, god tier layout IMO
Life shouldn’t always be about completing some task or quest to achieve something. Usually, in the smallest things, we act as if we want to get something over with, to feel *fulfilled* when we finish it. but sometimes we don’t feel fulfilled, we don’t feel satisfied. The happiness sometimes comes from the chore itself, to mindlessly do something that we think will make us happy, when it was all just a trick, or rather, a feeling we give ourselves to feel like we are living.
A blissful ignorance.
Listening to The Nurture album was a spiritual experience
It took a while for me to think so, but I think this is genuinely the best song on the album. It's so warm and fuzzy feeling, and you can truly feel that Porter found closure in his struggle. Can't thank Fantano enough for pivoting my view on this song from the album ending to the album "end credits rolling" song
The wait has been good, thank you Porter for bringing us a great and beautiful album
heyy
it was worth the wait
Lyrics:
well, do you feel better now?
i thought i'd run until the sky came out
and with the sunlight on my face,
something changed
and just trying to feel alive,
you climbed a mountain - are you satisfied? as you stand at the top,
you already want to do this one more time
maybe it's a gift that i couldn't recognize maybe i don't really need to feel satisfied maybe it's a gift that i spend all this time just trying to feel alive
maybe i don't really wanna be satisfied maybe it's a gift that i couldn't recognize maybe this all - maybe this was all ...
and then somebody, somewhere finds the warmth of summer in the songs you write
Maybe it's a gift that I couldn't recognize:
trying to be feel alive
💜
It's already in the description but thank you soo much beautiful soul💙🕊
“Well do you feel better now?” Is one of my favorite lyrics from this song. Such a simple lyric but so powerful after the journey we just went on.
i wish fullmoon lullaby could be released worldwide because wow it's probably my favorite on the album
I've lost count to how many times I've listened to this on loop in the last 3 months off & on, still somehow just as good every listen
everytime i feel not satisfied i play this song, sometimes no matter how small sacrifie we did, everything we did can help people from anywhere we never know and thats make me feel alive,and it is a gift that i couldnt recognize.now i never complain about anything thanks to this song...
Me too!
A sunrise or sunset banger for sure
Did not expect a song titled so melancholically to slap this hard. The way it builds kind of reminds me of a Pogo or Liltommyj mix. Lyrically, that last verse calls back to Get Your Wish, thematically; maybe all the struggle of trying to create something is worth it if someone else can get something out of it, maybe it's okay that neither the process nor the praise that accompany it can REALLY leave you satisfied because maybe they're not supposed to. I dunno. That's just my interpretation.
What an album. Sat out on my porch and looked at the moon and sketched a bit and had some chocolate pudding while I listened to it. Not quite the drive to the sunny field that Porter recommended, but the album released at nighttime in my time zone.
my definition of music, and how i'd describe it is - trying to convey feelings and hope into those who are hurt. music isn't about you, it's about trying to help those who are hurt. music is always about healing those who can't help themselves. music is about love and emotion, not profit. maybe you need a different way of looking at music porter, maybe then you can understand the feelings and trust you need. something i do, when feeling intense feelings of emotions is to sit still. listen to the music in your head, sometimes it may feel chaotic, but even then. if your having trouble with your music, sit with someone you love, do something you like doing. you'll eventually hear the song that correlates with your scenario, music comes to me when i feel intense. kinda like spider mans 6th sense. love you porter, always on your side.
This is one of the best endings to an album I've heard in a long time, probably since "Heysatan" by Sigur Ros.
The lyrics are amazing. I was pretty much crying after hearing it for the first time.
And then somebody somewhere finds
The warmth of summer in the songs you write
Maybe it's a gift that i couldn't recognize
Trying to feel alive
What a way to close it 🥲
The whole album is beautiful, but this is truly a masterpiece.
Oh man ... I really found the warmth in your songs, and the inspiration, we are all trying to find something more, to feel something that we think could give us fulfillment, but in trying this, we ignore everything we can bring to others. In the end, we shouldn't try to feel alive ... We just had to try to live, doing and being what we want to be. 💜 Thank you for your music, I find it very comforting in rare moments of my life.
These lyrics just resonate so deeply with me. Thank you so much for your music.
How do you not just have the biggest grin after such a hopeful song?
We most certainly do find the warmth of summer in your songs. Thank you porter
Damn this is art, uplifting to the next level. So many feelings..
Album of the year, no doubt, thank you so much Porter for making it and changing our lifes in a positive way. Thank you so much!
To Another 7 Years, i will stay alive
