“We are in the same
Fucking boat, you would think that would make us close” (you’d be close to each other Literally If youre on the same damn boat). you’re right man like why did he bar so heavy in this.

Em said rap it's all he has, so I guess it's his way to express himself. He doesn't do a lot of interviews but his music speak well enough for him and let us know him a bit more.

And the fact that he spent years as a kid writing letters to his dad in the hopes he would respond but but they all returned unopened. It was only when he got rich and famous that his dad tried to get in touch with him, but Em never went through with it, and then his father recently died without ever getting the chance to see his son again..😭 i swear his life is so fucking tragic.. but I'm glad he didn't let his trauma destroy his life. i will forever have so much respect and admiration for this man.

this song makes me cry. his mother is a narcissist who basically did everything to kill him without killing him, neglected him, sued him, drugged him, had affairs here and there, got him addicted to pills, told him she wished he was dead...cant imagine going through all that as A CHILD. i find it absolutely incredible that he wrote this song. if i was him i would never be able to forgive her.

My guess is through his sobriety journey he had to address his past, and this track helped find closure and move on from his traumatic childhood. He learned about his mental health issues helping him understand hers.

Haven't watched yet but I'm assuming you will appreciate this one more now. This track was HUGE for us fans as Zane Lowe pointed out! Songs like this bring tears to my eyes on first listen, a few on Revival too. Em has had such a journey and sober and mature Em is a beautiful thing!😍
