J.Cole "Love Yourz" (Official Music Video)

J. Cole "Love Yourz" Official Video
This video was inspired by Peter Parkkerr Films after hearing J. Cole's album. We decided to film the song "Love Yourz" because of the message "We" as a film team feel like J. Cole was trying to get across.
This Project is a Music Video/Short-film about appreciating the life that was given to you instead of envying someone else's life wishing it was yours.

I don’t share a lot publicly but this song is honestly the reason I didn’t commit suicide. Everytime I felt that low I would turn this on and he said one thing I’ll never forget “ it’s beauty in the struggle” and I know imma prime example of that . I hope anybody who’s going through anything can find that one thing that keeps them moving . Mine has always been music .

This song is life changing, completely changed my perspective on life. Fuck all this unnecessary shit and focus on what truly matters. The people who love you, the people you love, friends, family. That's all that matters, I don't want to look back on my life and go fuck I wish I spent more time with my family, or shit I wish I was nicer to whoever. People out there chasing money and fame just for the sake of it, they act happy but they know they are unfulfilled. Genuinely the realist song I've ever heard.

WORD

[@producerheat8906]

the last time i heard this i was 20 years old homeless living in my work van my wife took off with her daughter and the dope dealer twicw her age and my live was falling even further apart then it already was. i was sitting in my van at 1am thinking about everyone who had fucked me over and everyone i had wronged and everyone who made an impact in my life. i grabbed the notebook next to me and started writing my suicide note listening to a playlist i had created awhile back. in my note i had a section for all the people mentioned above. it was 3 pages front and back. i was about 10 seconds from ending my life when this song came on. 'hear my words listen to my signal of distress' those were the words that caught my attention so i stared off into space and listened to it on repeat and my mind started going crazy with the details of my situation really kicking in looking back it made me realize that if i had never gone through what i went through i wouldnt be where i am now i wouldnt have learned the things ive learned and i realized that im better off then most because i know how to handle just about any situation thrown at me. this song is the reason my music is what it is today and its the reason i am where i am today no longer homeless no longer in the pit i was in 3 years ago. this song saved my life and changed it for the better. this is the goal i have in my music because of this song. is that i can pass on my experience through my own music and hope that one day someone will be writing this same comment about one of my songs you saved my life J Cole

[@chaseoliver3057]

You make your time, respect yourself, work, on the relationship with yourself. You can't be strong for others if you can't be strong for yourself but don't down size your achievements, to be healthy, to be mentally coherent, have faith in God, that alone is good. You've maintained your gift, you have respect within you so respect yourself, every life is equal. You'll never be your ideal self and that's alright don't worry, just keep the hope, every life has made mistakes we're all dealt different cards, different choices, you have a great life to some and bad to others so it doesn't really matter. We do a lot of complaining in our minds, our thoughts are actually a net negative. I'm not saying be obedient but have respect for yourself and forgiveness, to be mindful and present isn't to think about the past, future, or what ifs, it means to be aware of the moment of what's happening now with no feelings or thought attached. Don't be numb just decide how you feel on things, we often don't know how we feel on certain things or we don't allow ourselves to change our minds. No one gets everything I say right, no one is always aware etc... So live your life your happiness doesn't matter, you decide how you feel on things I just really hope you do what you want to do and therefore by extension I wish you happiness. I hope you got through that time bro.

How I wish I could fix all of their problems and not see them suffer. When you're a teacher, you care about your students almost as much as if they were your own kids. I just wish they would know that things will get better, but so many of them want to give up and join gangs, get pregnant, get on drugs, etc. It's hard. I hope they're bumping J.Cole though; sometimes music speaks louder than a person telling you.

@@drehardin Appreciate you reaching out. I still don't have a full time job. I've been grinding resumes and cover letters the past two weeks. I got two phone screens this past week, and potentially interview set ups this week (waiting to hear back). The jobs are pretty promising (money wise) and align with my overarching values, characteristics, and skill sets that I would to hone in and master. I've been doing a lot of introspection the past three months, and it's really allowed me to think and I can finally say I feel somewhat at peace for myself. I've never felt happier.
