Ghostpoet - Survive It (Official Video)

[@DeeMan96]

Still an absolute banger all these years later

[@Jackoffs]

I've been battering the Quest remix for so long I slept on the original

[@Ns-gq9no]

I remember listening this song over 7 years ago and yet here i am again. I know everyone is probably gone but i am here. I was just a depressed kid at the time and listening this made me calm. I always thought it will be always better when you grow up. It didn't. Lot of things passed, lot of terrible lessons learned and now i'm listening this after all these years while smoking. Like you say , it's just underrated. Hope we can survive

[@MegaLakeStar]

same. remembered how much i vibed to this when i was younger. gives me the same warmth to this day.

[@akashsareen1526]

This reminds me of a quote from the last episode of Bojack Horseman (great show if you’ve never seen it) - “sometimes life’s a bitch and then you keep living”. Some things (often music) reminds you of the rough patches you went through in the past. Things maybe never really get better permanently, but the point is you kept on living, and maybe there’s some comfort in knowing that whatever you’re feeling now will one day just be a memory - sometimes it’s enough just to want to be alive and survive to see the story unfold.

[@olivercook3295]

We can survive it! True words, I feel ya! It'll all turn out great :)

[@Hannie.Schaft]

Dude I'm right here with you! ...just a year after you. The lost bois will always come back here I guess Happy he found a little success tho

[@nealesmith3700]

Oi man don't think life can be better. Of course it can. Message me you need a friend.

[@nickysnaith943]

After 10 years this tune is still just as good

[@mistymang321]

I come back every so often when I’m in a rough spot, makes it a little easier. Thanks for this piece of art.

[@PUDDICOMBE1992]

Ten years on still gives me goosebumps. Thank you GP

[@ormanite]

This song gives me hope.

[@kevinmcneill7056]

This beautiful poetry/music came on Radio 6 today and I just stopped what I was doing and listened. This really touched me Thank you so much .

[@daBjoerrn]

Kevin McNeill me too

[@musicsoups]

Björn Jacobi and me!!!

[@Outcastedshadow]

dear lord man same here

[@cameronwilliamboyle2688]

Seeing you directly respond to your fans with dedication and care is possibly the most magical thing I have seen all week. You're not just a fantastic musician, but a wonderful human being.

[@peterdickinson4599]

This is a song I could never find the time to like enough. A definitive tune.

[@shortpegs]

The lyrics to this song represent the truths in our society. A society that is blind to the real world, and a society thriving on image and the need to be wanted. People don't understand the simplicity of happiness and what it takes to lead a full life. I thank ghostpoet for making me reflect on the past and regret nothing. We can learn from this man.

[@antisystemicparadise1202]

My son was born when this was released

[@susanhotchkiss-allison5776]

Discovered you from Orlando Florida

[@ghostpoet2391]

Thank you all so much for continuing to listen to my nonsense. Really means a lot. New stuff...soonish x

[@marto1971]

Looking forward to the gig in Manchester early next year :)

[@jameskeane1990]

That gig in the rain at Glastonbury back in day was legendary broski

[@joshualane1716]

+Ghostpoet "Nonsense." Pff, okay. Keep up the nonsense, please.

[@Outcastedshadow]

dude you just spoke to my heart and fixed my inspiration.. to keep going when in doubt

[@havoc2361988]

You really 44 ?

[@syd502]

The song has been a constant for last 10 years.

[@braingnawer]

This song still gets me through hard times

[@OgSamurai133]

2019 and I'm still chilling with this song!

[@4Saleee]

2021 here :)

[@christianhill4529]

Last night was the night I’ve been imagining since he was born!! My sixteen year old son warwick came and stayed over at myn last night, we chatted like I always hoped we would back then, there was a moment when survive it was playing, told him to shut it listlen cos I’m giving you skills, knowledge love etc!! Bind strengthened massively!!! Thank you ghost poets! I write too so I know what’s bullocks and ain’t yeh!! Love love love to you guys ❤️

[@somerandy500]

You deserve way more credit dude, lyrics are so on point

[@RocksLondon09]

i really really love you man! Saw you in germany at dockville festival in 2012, still listing to you!

[@Jbordner]

Yo man.... This just hit me on a random Spotify playlist...I never really listen to music but I put some on today to clean my place while symbolically cleaning out old memories.... I'm not gonna get too into detail but this shit is saving me right now man. Thank you. Please keep doing what you're doing. I'll listen to every track from here on out.

[@mrloverman82]

This sounding real good in 2021. ☀️

[@imjusteagle8973]

Still listening to this song it’s a masterpiece

[@Attaxas]

Add this man, Ghostpoet, to the list of UK artists that have taken an American art form and improved it, and then OWNED it. This man and Roots Manuva - well 'ard.

[@0ihatetrolls01]

At 6am, waiting for the bus for the gym before work, this keeps me going, big vibes

[@Weeklywalkabout]

The song that kept my terminal ill uncle (soon to pass) going. Thank you ghost poet, I don't know you, but thank you

[@Weeklywalkabout]

I see my comment got quiet a lot of attention off of the community, and would like to say that my uncle died a few days after the posting of that comment. He died a painless death in hospital by the side of his mother. Not sure why anyone would be dying to know, it just seemed fitting

[@margaretalvis9824]

Weeklywalkabout Thank you for sharing

[@ghostpoet2391]

Weeklywalkabout No... thank you, thank you so much. My heart goes out to you and your family.

[@krzeselko]

Omg, The "My so-and-so was terminal and your (insert item) kept his spirits up" story. I see this shit every once a month or so. No one really gives a shit. We all have uncles who died. Put a different bait on the pitty hook.

[@Weeklywalkabout]

@@krzeselko Your life must be shit mate

[@vellocent]

I listened to this as my life was spiraling downwards. It mirrored the feeling I had. Life is easier now and I still love this song. It reminds me to never forget where I came from.

[@MURKYDEEP100]

this guy's got knack of writin tunes i can relate too

[@justinpaulhines]

Back again, pulled me through some shit this has

[@Outcastedshadow]

I JUST replayed this song 3 times.....

[@BioDieselEstate]

Ghostpoet . . . . Yeah

[@roryking1]

little bro put me on to this years ago. now its buried somewhere in my mind n i have to come back every once in a while n give it a listen

[@bellastu8654]

I love it

[@jamespolitano1992]

i watched him live in nottingham last tuesday, he was incredible, i also got the chance to meet Obaro (Ghostpoet) and the band members. can't say I've ever met a more humble and appreciative artist. Thank god musicians like this exist!

[@jasonjay81]

Man ghost poet is a legend! Wish I’d seen him Live

[@kevinateague]

[@MrWangNewtons]

[@GasolineSmellsGood]

One of those songs that put you in a mindstate

[@joshatfield1380]

Still hits the same as it did 11yesrs ago. Most underrated artist out there. Keep it up bro

[@kanz920]

God, this song is so good it hurts.

[@ellebelle2507]

Yes saw a great performance at Shambala 2011 in Chai Wallahs, good times! :-)

[@daneput]

Its moments when you find an artist like this that you feel re-inspired about life.

[@lonelyspade]

wow just heard this on radio 6. love it.

[@88sCYTHe]

My "youtuberepeat" counter is now at 24. And that's just for today. This song has helped me through one of the toughest periods of my life. Thanks, Ghostpoet.

[@frenchypresentsmusic]

old but gold 💯

[@richelleb67]

I just came across this beautiful voice on Triple J, here in Australia. I grew up in London (Highbury) and emigrated here 13 years ago ... not a day goes by I don't miss my roots, but I made a life here for my kids. Ghostpoet (great name btw) your soulful social commentary makes my heart happy * * "

[@Murdock47]

So amazing. Summed up my year from hell. So amazing.

[@Am_i_the_only_one-j1k]

2020 love this song!!!!!!

[@joethekelly335]

More quality stuff soon squire... Splendid

[@nerro23]

Sums up the mood of London at the moment.

[@assortedpov]

I remember when this came out and it was on 6 Music frequently for quite a while. My head was in a terrible place and then I'd hear this and remember to keep things in perspective.

[@galaxylucia1898]

This song has seriously grown on me...not that i didn't like it at first..but for some reason it's been playing in my head on its own.

[@ARakaLordBrilliant]

I just stumbled upon this. As an American I don't know why some Americans say UK hiphop is not good because of the accent. That to me is a bullshit lie. This is dope. As long as someone has lyrics, can flow on beat, metaphors, mic presence then it is dope to me.

[@GevorgGasparyangegaspar]

You wanted to say American accent of English language i guess 😁😂

[@petedineley4393]

Its not hip hop its unique

[@johndev9286]

No one gives af what Americans think... respectfully

[@SeaBass1197]

I so desperately want to give this man a hug ❤️

[@joethekelly335]

You don't speak nonsense man. You echo what is happening in a beautiful way

[@PEGreezyTV]

just too DEEP this is REAL life. no more no less. and for this guy to explain it so beautifully, well makes you wanna live on, fight on through the toughest battles that life delivers on a daily basis. wisdom & heart, the things great music is made from..

[@ryangalloway6588]

These vibes man

[@thelastremnantofevil]

this is like the 10th time I've listened to this tonight, brilliant stuff.

[@williesmith7604]

How can you dislike this man ~_~

[@Benzzoop]

Can't stop replaying this song...

[@tmf9556]

2021. First time I've heard this. It's excellent. Chillin

[@CommercialRapKiller]

Thank you from the heart and soul for helping me get through hard times with your music. Peace brother -'The Eidolon'

[@idoidoism]

ghostpoet your like a breath of fresh air.....go forth with those words in your hand...peace..

[@HippoSnr]

GhostPoet is big...and only going to get bigger. His sound is eclectic and raw, let's hope it stays that way. Peace

[@JabezMaurer]

still a banga

[@neilwarnock7200]

still an absolute tune!

[@itsMotion17]

So big so so uplifting! keep on going, heads up stay strong, Strrrrrong lyrics

[@Sudstah]

I heard this guy around xmas 2010, the guy needs to keep pushing his material out!

[@quietseagull2857]

Brilliant song, It really resonates with how I feel some of the time, it's a song of the times I think.

[@MrMikeymike1985]

its good to finally hear a philosophical english rapper, i feel content shutting me eye's to this and listening it 'sa calming tune, then i open then up and hope i get carried home

[@strayebyrd]

also this music video captures the feel and essence of the poetry in his verse perfectly

[@DeZAuk]

This is art at its finest.

[@fluffycake1]

Love US poets/rappers but UK styles are awesome. This is guy is my favorite for sure. Very unique with great evocative lyrics. Also liking other Brit poets like Roots Manuva, Tricky, Scoobius Pip, Akala, Lowkey, The Streets, Allflaws

[@2k10deanomac]

its just pure... it makes me feel so small but yet makes me feel so big because i share his feelings and im not alone

[@TheJuris1973]

I remember when this song came out. Was rough tines. I know what its like to feel the monster follow you.

[@pw4444]

I hope this guy gets the credit he rightfully deserves,by far one of the UK best talents,

[@getthoseskills4451]

So good. One of the best poets from UK. Love him and other Brit alt rappers/poets like Tricky, Scroobius Pip, Maxi Jazz, Sleafod Mods, Allflaws

[@dextaclothing]

When ever life is hard turning this song always makes things easier and puts things into perspective.

[@MrNutsHouseofLittleTreesBONSAI]

Love brother, thank you for keeping me goin
