![[ REACTION ] NF - Leave Me Alone](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/8-DxPPJIY64/mqdefault.jpg)
When he says he's scared to let the balloons go and watch them float away - he's so used to carrying his burdens and dealing with his struggles that he doesn't know who he would be without them. Change is hard, and the unknown is scary.
Love that
@@DonVon He's probably concerned that it would affect his music as well, since that's not only a common concern for artists/musicians who clean their lives up in one way or another, but for NF, that struggle is also central to his message.
@@DonVon I say "probably," but he talks about that exact thing in Outro.
That's pretty spot on because when it's said that pain has always been the root of his music and if he changes that or fixes the issues will he be the same, the balloons are the burdens and if he let's them go he would no longer be who he is which is someone that people can relate to. If the music is no longer relevant then he would no longer be able to do it and the driving factor is that music helps him because it also is helping other people, he doesn't need fame because he has fans or fam people that have been rockin with him from day one. It's all about what the brand says "REAL"!
My theory is everyone has there burdens, and fake smiles.. these are his fans, being able to move forward because of his music but he’s still left behind. His demons and troubled life have made him, to hard to let go of the things that got him these fans, but in the end he’s trying.
Nailed it. 👍👍😉👻✍️
this whole album deserves a reaction.. every song.. especially “Nate”
Back in Intro II, "Satan keep callin me, he tryin to flirt. I hangup the phone, these are more than just words."
Here, Fame is clearly relative to that of the devil. Which is why he sent Fame this song and said that it sucks cuz the Devil, aka Fame, doesn't want to Leave Him Alone.
In addition, NF handing over the balloons is symbolic as letting God handle the burdens, or regrets, and is referenced in the song "Change." The line to look for there "Lord forgive me, you can have the regrets."
@CreamintheCoffee much appreciated! My wife and I are very active Christians and I went full on detail as how NF likely took inspiration from the Bible. Like, how many stories will prophecy an individual(s), and vice versa, but with NF, it's with future songs since the Mansion album. "One Hundred,", from the Perception album, was hinted in "Intro."
Point is, you'll find references everywhere. Story telling at its finest with this artist/author.
Dont think the fame line is about intro 2, in no name he said fame called him, because on perception album he blow's up, but aint ready for the fame, and in leave me alone HE called fame, and NO NAME is a younger song than intro 2
I think the smiles being wiped off is a symbol of people stopping putting a happy face on to the world and getting help. Possibly connecting the white suites with a psychiatric hospital patient. He has said in another song that the Dr says he needs meds but he's scared to take them so he's in this video stuck in the middle. As far as him letting the balloons go I think he means he would have to talk about them and that makes him vulnerable. Especially without the crutch of his burdens
I have to say I love watching your reaction videos of NF. I don't know but my family dosent get why I listen to him, especially my husband. But I love how you think and ask questions cause I think and ask the same things and your like guesses make sense to me. Looking forward to seeing more!
In No Name he said fame called, hung up on him, and that he wasn't ready for it and will get back to it in album 4 aka the search album ( ironically the search album went number 1 on the charts) so he literally did respond to fame with album 4
One of my favorites from this album. Been lovin the journey, can't wait til you get to "Nate".
This my theory. The people in white are people in the process of healing. They have their burdens and their masks(the makeup) but slowly they are getting better. And he's watching them get better, release their burdens, remove their masks. And this is an internal debate on weather that's worth it for him. Will he feel better sure. But will the music suffer for it. If he deals with ocd, and losens his grip. He also loses his music.
The whole weather scheme is complete fire! 💜💜💜
He sent fame this song and told fame to “leave me alone”. Thats why fame said this song sucks cuz he doesnt wanna leave him alone.
One of my favorite verses from nate. Never seen a reactor catch it fully.
Not only that, but in no name he literally says I'll get back to that in the 4th album and nobody catches that either
So much of Leave Me Alone is about the anxiety he has running through his head. He's a perfectionist with obsessive thought patterns. When you are meticulous about your craft, all you see are your flaws and there's always something to improve. Even accomplishments become tiresome because what you see are the mistakes. Additionally, fame brings about many more layers of critics, phonies, and pseudo-friends. These voices offer critiques of your work, questions to your integrity, and fickle people who will turn on you with one wrong move. If you already struggle with a loud inner critic, this will only make things exponentially worse. If you're searching for peace, it will be hard to find in the midst of all the internal and external noise. You will see this theme hit again when you get to Only.
He equates his identity to his burdens, his pain. All he knows. If he lets them go, who is he? He doesn't know who he is without his pain.
@CreamintheCoffee not sure what that means exactly
@CreamintheCoffee sorry, I'm not used to seeing positivity
Fame called he sent him this song "leave me alone" the title is the key
He says remember back in “no name” fame called and he hung up.
In the song “no name” fame called and he hung up on fame.
That’s what he was talking about in that bar
Great reaction. You don’t need help with it. Feel it and enjoy it
Such a good reaction. I think you got it. This one always had me searching for the meaning,
I think he is telling fame to leave him alone. That’s why he sent fame this song. Please do this whole album. Great reactions.
They are all people like him getting help. The search starts the journey. He’s now in a facility to get “better” the tents that look like carnival tents represent nurses. Nurses used to be called candy stripers back in the day and that’s the color and pattern uniforms they would wear. He’s going on his journey from light to dark. He’s going to start healing.
My favorite, “I’m running the game and they don’t even know it like I’m undercover and don’t want to blow it”
Finally! I was wondering when you’d get around to this one.
The balloons are heavy to him as his burdens so he’s scared to let them go and heal when in reality they are light as a feather and he can just let them go and they’d be fine for good, but he doesn’t know who he is without them yet.
"Running the game but nobody knows it, like I'm undercover and don't wanna blow it" is what I heard and if that's true then that's a fucking bar
Buckle up! This whole album is a wild ride... great reaction!!
Everyone in the industry calls him underrated and doesn't acknowledge him as a "real rapper" because he didn't do things the way other rappers do it. He did it his own way and got a massive following and that scares the people in the traditional rap industry
Here is my original take. I have seen my comment copied by others on other reaction channels:
Nate is still Searching, pushing his mental shopping cart prison around with his burdens attached, closely dragging behind. The people in white likely represent his fans in various stages of mental health themselves. Some still hide behind their fake "Joker" smiles, pretending their lives are fine with the appearances they present to the world and social media. Others, have been inspired by Nate, and are going to get professional help and are beginning to come to terms with their own flaws and burdens (wiping off their smiles in line). Some have let go of most of their burdens, and some fans still carry around a few burdens, but not as much as Nate; which is his "Perception."
Furthermore, Nate references that "he'll drop a song out of nowhere and all the fans embrace it" (as all the seated fans are eagerly listening, waiting for new music and point, in unison, at his burdens). The following scene shows the symbiosis of Nate's fans helping him by literally being behind him and helping him into mental recovery (pushing him in his shopping cart) while simultaneously following him and being inspired to get help themselves. I think the tent with black clothes being exchanged for white represents people discovering NF and that they aren't alone. They don't have to wear black and be plagued by their burdens forever. Being a part of this community of NF fans that are real and raw is helping them and inspiring them to come into the light (white clothes symbolizing purity). They come out with no fake smiles, but don't necessarily smile for real still, because they are no longer faking that everything is ok. They have become "Real", embracing "Real Music" and "Real life" on the road to healing.
The older man sitting in the cart, is old NF that we have seen in a few other videos, assuming he never lets go of all his burdens and grows old with them. Fame is again, referenced. The phone rings at the beginning (Fame is calling) and it ends with the phone still ringing; fame calling again. TBD on if Nate gives away a few of his burdens to the man behind the veil wearing white. I take that as GOD.
Well said. I’d add that to me the title “Leave Me Alone” has a double meaning. He wants the voices in his head, the doubt, his burdens and fame to leave him alone but he’s also afraid if they do leave him alone and he lets go of those burdens that the fans will also leave him alone. And that he doesn’t want. So he feels stuck in the middle and unsure if he should let go some burdens. That’s why he’s looking back at the fans before handing them off.
😳🔥 break down DJ!!
Thank you for the break down ! I couldn’t quit figure out the ones in white .
He also only had let you down on the radio bc he doesn’t want to be mainstream. He only wants people who relate to listen to his music that’s why he’s so underground. I saw him earlier this year and I’ve been a fan since the start. He was amazing. I’m going down tour play list I hope you review the good album. It puts everything together.
He said he would call fame back when he makes album 4 the search is album 4 he kept his word🔥
This is an awesome video and song , so many Easter eggs, I want to know your opinion of the fair and. All the people with black balloons and white clothes. He has never given an outright explanation it’s in the eye of the beholder
“Fame” is the critics and the industry
YES! I've been waiting for you to do this one lol
When fame called and he sent him this song and felt offended was the point of the title - Leave me alone
I so admire his talent and courage, Brilliant lyricist. Just phenomenal. Thanx so much, one of the best reactions, loved ur breakdowns and thoughts on it, take care, Peace
If Nate releases his burdens (BALLOONS) then he is 'more afraid' he will be without his writing matereal and the 'anger' that drives him to success sorta like batman giving up the 'suit'... ? ;)
Even when the smile is wiped off they
still show no emotion or REAL smile...
so I think the dark to light clothes signify
presciption usage to cover(cope with) the
symptoms but not get the healing(cure)
needed and Nate is avoiding the meds
as he states in other tracks... ;)
I am so excited for you to go through this album here. The search is pure genius from start to finish for sure.
Just wait for the stretch of songs your about to hear after the first 2 bangers to start the album.
All this takes place in his head. Like the search, the lady on swing was his memory of his mom on swing from WHY. So all the humans represent good/bad memory and they all over the place so it’s crazy in his head
At the end Nate pull exactly the number
of balloons scene on the porch swing
attached to the head of his Mom is on
in SEARCH..... maybe the two balloons
are his burdens he carries for his guilt
thinking he let his sisters down...
Now forward to the begining the to the end
of this vid...as a phone rings 'I wish I just picked
up the phone... I wish Il'd of called' Nate finally
forgives her... perhaps?
also I believe the two women Nate taps on in the
last scene represent his two sisters at their current
age as the 2 balloons(2sisters) and Nate presents
to his Mom's outstretched hand that represents
'givingiT2God' in order to heal from it and move towards
his Search for True 'FREEDOM'... those 7 letters
the 'Map2Hope' will lead him to... ? ;)
just so you know I love watching you figure this out there's no right answer but it definitely doesn't have to do with anything but his own self...
So I have no evidence for my explanation of what you were asking about, but here's my theory. When Nate says "I should let them go but I'll be more afraid" I always took that to mean that the devil you know is better than the devil you don't know. Sometimes it's easier to hold on to the familiar even if it hurts you because you don't really know who you are without those burdens, like they've become part of Nate's identity. When he talks about calling fame back he sends him this song entitled Leave Me Alone. Nate has often said in other songs he doesn't want the fame so that's why he's sort of telling fame in a backhanded way to leave him alone because he doesn't want the fame, he just wants to make music. As for the visuals I think you're probably on the right track since I've always struggled to understand the visuals myself so I won't claim to understand that. 😆
My theory in regards to this music video is that everyone has burdens and fake smiles (everyone wearing black) and they enter this carnival and as they go through it they are being medicated (which is why everyone is walking almost like zombies) and they end up in white suits with their smiles wiped off. He makes a reference to this in his later songs where he states that he is afraid of taking medication because it might change him. Old man in his cart might be a reference to himself in the future where he didn’t get the chance to get rid of his burdens and he’s stuck alone? That is definitely up for interpretation
Truly my favorite album of his so far. So excited for you to hear the rest
if you know you know and you're not quite there yet keep going bro
First reaction I’ve seen that made the game connection with No Name.
Let me explain the exchange between NF and Fame. On No name, he said he hung up on fame and would get back to him on album 4. Now we're on album 4, Nate said he felt bad for hanging up the first time. So, this time he just sent fame this song. Song is literally called. Leave me alone. He's not hanging up on fame, but he is still telling him , I want nothing to do with you, leave me alone. This is why Fame gets mad and tells him the song sucks.
spot on 👏🏼
You pause at the best parts 😅
I feel like when he says he sent fame this song if you really think about it, the song title is called leave me alone. He’s telling fame to leave him alone.
NF #RealMusic 🔥
Sup DeVon! 🎤 Keep Up The Great Work!
Best rapper alive? I say yes!
Happy to see you back! Love your reactions 🔥
You got to react to his new song hope is really good
Talk to myself in a language that’s foreign. I wrote that because I sometimes talk to myself in Spanish.
Your awesome 😎
So are you🫡
It’s about conformity and how people tell him he needs to be like everyone else
All those people in his video were fans. He put out something stating he was gonna need 400 fans.
When he says he hung up it kinda felt wrong- his internal battle to go main stream
He called back to hear more then sent them this song "leave me alone" as a message that he won't change who he is for fame.
It’s the healing process
Been watching this whole journey but homie idk how you watch these videos with no the captions😂 I need captions on all his videos so I catch the lyrics
Lol He is speaking to his ocd mind and fame saying leave me alone
When you let go of all your burdens it can be scary as you feel your whole personality could change.
His fans always rock with him. He was streamed 1.2 billion times this year with nothing dropped all year. He made top 63rd most streamed artists three years in a row now.
That was not fans. To me those are people who sought therapy in white
He told Fame to "LEAVE ME ALONE!"
Bro he was not talking about his fans leaving him he was talking about the fact that if he pauses in between releasing his songs that people will want them more it's like the same the heart grows fonder with space if you really want something and you let it go when it comes back you enjoy it even more it's part of his operation he wants the buzz to fade so that when he drops a song it resurfaces you're looking too much into the bars homie
Fame is the personification of doubt which is what Satan uses to cause believers to question or have doubt in obeying God.
I know you’ve been jumping around - listen to “The Search” album front to back. Hits different with the progression from song to song
Unrelated, but damn I keep forgetting UA-cam has a zoom feature for a bit now XD
Maybe my favorite NF track
I’ve got a wild theory. Did anyone notice that when Nate is talking to the group about being “underrated” they’re all kids? When he says “all the fans embrace it” I see it as young kids will literally just follow anything and everything that’s cool in the moment (that’s why they all point in unison). Maybe I’m looking at it too deeply, but I don’t think Nate is saying these lines in a positive manner. I think he’s worried that he’s not as original as he’d like to be, since a lot of his fans blindly follow him.
Idk. I’m hurting my own brain here lol.
🔥🔥💯💯 Reaction NFrealmusic 💯💯
Fill my balloons full of doubts I know I should leave my doubts behind but I don't know that if I do that I will be the same person if you struggle with releasing your burdens you will understand this line he's saying that he knows he should release all of his doubts worries and burdens but if he does he's afraid he will no longer be the same person
Fame asked him how he been, he sent him this song (leave me alone) fame said the song sucks.... Nate still don't care bout the bright lights
maybe its better you turn-on the caption, NF's MV's has an official caption for the MV's
That part you missed was a "zip" noise in the beginning
He was wiping off the fake smile on the guy, get your mind outta the gutter man, lol
NO! I didn’t mean like that!! 🤣
@@DonVon 🤣🤣🤣
Hey man love the NF reactions! You mind if I ask what background music that is in the beginning? I've heard it used some other times and I really like it!
It’s a non copyright beat. Not sure the exact name
Fame's calling, and he feels he needs to let some of his burdens go to enjoy what's coming but he's afraid
I’m enjoying this journey you are on hopefully you figure it out since you keep missing the stuff that matters and over thinking the lyrics
You gotta do the song and the video separately lol. It’s too much to try and catch it all at once. And trust me, Nate fans will watch reactions to both 😂
He said panic stricken
BRO YOU GOTTA REACT TO LOST IN THE MOMENT
Talk to himself the language is foreign because he feels like Noone understands the way he thinks
I think your overthinking this , fame called he hung up on him because he wasnt ready for him, so he sent him this song “ leave me alone” , literally wants nothing to do with fame, he is telling fame, his burdens , his voices to leave him alone
This album actually came out before Clouds. That's a Joke and most of the songs you reacted to first are actually the newest album lol. But hey! Everyone's NF journey is different
He released 3 records before his first song Went triple platinum Fame called him when his song Went triple platinum ( let me down) he hung up on Fame he didn't want to be famous another of his bars i am not famous I am just Nathan
(LA Leakers Ray Vaughn) Bars, Bars Bars... Don't 😴💤 on this video bro... Guaranteed to be one of the best Bar video you'll ever 👁️ see.. The Bars are off the chain and straight 🍌..... If your a lover of Bars then this is the video for you. I promise you won't be disappointed. PEACE ✌️....
if there are lines you are mis hearing, try turning on captions.
Talk to myself in a language that's foreign.. I wondered if as a Christian he has experienced the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues? That would be a language that's foreign. 🤷♀
In my opinion the white clothes represent people who have washed away their sins I think it's more of a Christian reference I could be wrong
Bro you can pull up the lyrics with the videos. Seems you have a little difficulty catching them. Maybe you should try that
re-listen to Outro
LOL, He told fame to Leave him alone, LOL
Bro are u playing pause play pause play game ?
Bro just pull up the lyrics lol other than that the reaction was lit!
Lol please just pull up the lyrics. "Running the game and they don't even know it"
Please use subtitles 😢
Bro, subtitles.
Bro, stop pausing in the middle of the bar. No wonder you're so confused.
