He wrote/spoke 8 Chapters about this time period in much more details - it is on his RenMakesStuff channel.

Important song. A stem cell doctor who actually found him and who gave him the transplant for free (the "with a generous glow" line). Great reaction.

He cut himself in an alley with the glass from a TV he found and smashed in the alley. Ren released 8 chapters leading up to this song if him writing about his struggles since 19 when he caught Lyme disease up through the release of this song. It looks like it will chart tomorrow when the new charts come out. It has over 1.2 million views in the first week! He has 2 new albums coming out this year. One called slaughter house of all collabs which should drop this Summer and one of more straight singing like chalk outlines. Then he is working on a rock album!

The stem cell transfusion saved his life, the music kept his brain sane and gave him some hope and kept his mind from thinking about all his pain.

Ren's lyrics are so dense - metaphors, symbolism, cultural references... it takes several listens to catch it all.

6:00 "I carved a hole into my chest. Relief in the kiss of the TEETH of cold steel. You use a knife to carve and knives also have teeth.

With great power comes great responsibility, and Ren is truly a hero! He is using his growing powers and platform for so much more than simply creating brilliant music. Ren has said that he always had this feeling that he was meant to change the world for the better. So much that he defiantly yelled a challenge to evil into an empty room. And then he got sick… Ren has now shared the full story of his health journey in 8 video chapters leading up to the release of this song and what a journey it has been. If anyone hasn’t already watched them, I highly recommend you do. With all the chapters he is showing immense strength in sharing his story that is so hard to tell, being vulnerable and telling it because he hopes it will help others and raise awareness. And here he is with another rendition of that story, now told through music with a fire beat and delivering a message of hope. A beautiful hero that the world needs ❤️🐰🕳️

Youve got to remember, at this same time, as he was going through all this he was also losing really good friends and just so much more. I know everyone goes through stuff, but man. I truly respect him. Check out his story 'missing chapters 1-8. It was a precursor to this song. Great reaction guys

Looking forward to your reaction to Money Game 3 guys ❤ I will also recommend something less serious after to 'cleanse your palate ' so to speak and do maybe Murderer (official video first, then if you can the live bc it's a different vibe but great too) and then maybe Losing It (which is rap on an EDM track by Fischer whose sole lyrics originally was just 'losing it'.

His lyric was “one time I carved a hole on my chest”. He wasn’t shot, he did it to himself.

@@Courtneyp85no, actually with a piece of sharp glass from a television set. But that wouldn’t have fitted in the song. Same meaning though

He said he carved a hole in his chest...you both need to watch his chapters..there are 8 ! He explains everything. Plus you need to pull up Ren's lyrics while you are watching so you know what he's saying

Love watching you both reacting to Ren. OK. Which one of you can bench more? I liked what you said about what we would have missed out on had Ren not been around.
@CalvinHart-dv8gv8 ай бұрын
Love how you assume he was shot. It’s not like it never happens but gun crimes are very rare in the uk. Sadly in desperation he cut himself to feel something, to control how he was feeling. It’s so amazing he is still here to lighten the world with his art. Great reaction.

he didnt get shot, he wast sick for 7 years, the teeth and and the kiss of cold steel>? (gun in the mouth, teeth kiss the steel, old nas bar)
@Caseyd19668 ай бұрын
I like the reference to Nas! I think the kiss of cold steel refers to Ren cutting himself in the chest just to see if he could feel. In one of his Chapters (I think 6 or 7) he describes how he smashed a tv & used the glass to cut himself (he took some artistic liberty & called it cold steel instead of glass in the song)

head in the lions den, Daniel in the lions den. You might be enduring your own personal "den of lions" right now, but remember that your circumstances are never a reflection of how much God loves you. The key is not to put your focus on your situation but on your all-powerful Protector. Are you putting your faith in God to rescue you?
