Isaiah defines what most of us feel in our twenties from time to time, lost and dependent on booze/meds to avoid dealing with our problems

[@yungeodubbleg]

Wow this video absolutely encapsulates depression. He's having fun with his friends, but when he's alone he feels like shit; to the point he's nearly (or is) suicidal. Damn

[@mellowsteez4776]

marlin jackson damn u just put my feelings into words, every week the only thing I look forward to is hanging out with friends, without them I'll probably be long gone cuz of this personal shit I'm goin through

I always come back to this classic... this song hits every time

[@myyoutubeaccount4167]

Every once in a while I do too. I kinda wish Zay’s pen game was like how it used to be, but of course I have to keep in mind that artist/people change, even if it isn’t for the better.

[@RockerFoo92]

Man Suns tirade and cilvia demo were both fire but I think a lot of us can relate more to his older music I slept on zay for a lil while but he's one of MY personal top 5 because I can relate and his music helped me through some rough times

[@LucidDream]

awsumromey I liked all of his projects. But yeah, just something special about the old stuff. Even he said, in an interview, that he used to be more about truth and being real. That he felt like he said all the truth that he needed to say and he didn't want to keep rapping about the same things. In '2x Pills' he talks about how conscience rap don't make money in the industry, that people don't want to hear the truth. I hope the fact that he's getting more popular doesn't change him completely though. My favorite work of his is when he's honest really.

[@yokofrancie1764]

I second this statement. He opened for schoolboy Q in New Jersey and he kept the crowd jumping.

Late nights, stay on it Bright lights, they want it And it's funny how you so charismatic A sex addict, but stay lonely Throw a beat on, I kill it Not a gun though, my feelings Here comes slow, pop pilling And I die young, God willing God willing, shit Got me over here tripping And liquor don't help for the feelings I felt I'm just over here chilling Yeah, always seem to blame a bitch The only thing I got is my pain and shit And these hoes want art Love over your canvases Should I talk about my dad or something? Always feel like I'm mad for nothing Rap fast cause a crash is coming And it hurts for the words but it lasts for something Po Pimpin' so Do or Die Slit wrists, so suicidal Stay cool in a pool of fire Worship in a verse, nigga who's your idol? Ain't never felt like this before Would you ride for freedom? Would you die for freedom? Got a ski mask on and a pistol loaded Hear money talking, I die to meet 'em Looking forward to the bright lights Late nights and the bullshit Yeah, they was talking that good shit That's far as they could get, yeah

[@SKnowlton27]

Somebody find this sample, I'm getting lazy.... UPDATE: It's “Who Can I Run To” by Xscape or The Jones Sisters I found the sample by mistake like a month after I originally posted the comment. Came back to this video today because I'm going to his concert in Birmingham, AL in February & it popped in my head. This damn song is a classic.

[@mfscarce6740]

Sandy 4K how was his concert

[@SKnowlton27]

LIT AF!!!! The venue was smaller so we got an amazingly clear performance. I got to meet the mane & everything. Pic on my IG: Mem4his_4h4r4oh

[@MicaelJiggetts]

Man, I was living in MS at the time and I missed his stop in Birmingham. I regret it til this day!
