2020 and we are still here, banging out this mix

2024 ❤

[@rza422]

Still an amazing mix in 2024. Great lyrics and flow from Sage!

"Making you think you are crazy is a billion dollar industry" This guy knows what's up

True, I was like DAMN!

[@BodhisattvaBabe]

❤❤❤

[@laurencetyrpak5798]

All I have to say is WOW! Even if you don't like the song that shouldn't matter. The message behind it is just something else. It truly is an amazing song...so stop arguing, trolling or whatever it is you all do and enjoy it!!!

[@Boston_Shovinstuff]

All I have to is this has come to FULL fruition ! Love from Boston Sage

[@keitheepoo7253]

Even if this was Sage's original beat, ide eat it all up. Love u sage

[@GabesYT]

I really dig the mix. I think the contrast between the somber piano and Sage's aggressive tone make it. It gives Sage's words that kind of last-stand in-your-face feeling. Mad props.

[@avox2612]

I love how you gave the feeling Sage’s words

Just seen Sage with B Dolan as Epic beard men. Two of the most talented rappers/poets and still rocking it

[@snurfer123]

omg this song was so great it really shows how smart sage francis really is

[@JOSHY613HARDCORE]

simply amazing; dropping fort minor beats over sage francis makes it sounds like a completely different song, to me it sometimes even changes the way you hear the tone in his voice.

[@puddygr6985]

Slow down gandhi we know you would never...😢 so much truth in this song!

[@danjajeff1404]

Sage is the ultimate lyricist. Hands down top 10 if not top 5. His music evokes emotions, tears, and thought...

This beat has a lot of feeling to it, words match it perfectly

i like this version better, the music syncs well, and makes the lyrics pop more, like i don't have to fight to listen to what he's saying. it adds a sort of somber bitterness to what he's saying, like he's truly just so done, so fed up with everything going on.

[@puddygr6985]

Amazing how this song is soooo before it's time!

[@katieprattcontine]

I think this us the best Sage Francis I've heard in a long time.

[@joshking2241]

Top 10 consistently for sure. It’s so hard to do that. But high lyrical poet rap always floors me. Strange Famous is some of the best ever for it! B Dolan, Buck 65, Sleep (NW) thank you Sage Infinity!!

[@wayfairface]

shivers always from sage ... love the depth and feeling that most don't have these dayz

[@memyselfandi2311]

And I love Sage's lyrics. Match made in heaven.

[@JudoJohnny]

I remember playing this for the first time when it came out.... Thanks Sage.

[@harulecorriols5654]

this song in any shape or form is a Win!!!

[@Joehal287]

Greatest folk song to come out of post 9-11 America.

[@k33pitcl3an]

"Just bring home our motherf**kin' brothers and sisters." I felt his passion in that delivery.

[@micah2501]

Used to listen to this mix in High School when studying for AP Physics and Chem. Time really flies... wow

[@BenonBoard]

Oddly enough the Fort Minor beat is very reminiscent of a lot of Sage beats. Love the original, and all of Sage's work!

[@DaTruMusician]

Glad I could help you out.

[@oriondelgreco7680]

Just found this recently & I love this song♥️♥️♥️thank you lots

This song gets deeper every time I listen to it. It's a shame this isn't mainstream. I feel there would be a more educated public.

[@wmeyer82]

2022 is almost over and this song just keeps hitting harder as time goes on.

[@schafermichael]

this is absolutly batshit crazy amazing! i cant belive these lyrics came from a human lol its just bapholing i dont even have words for how amazing this is!

[@Captain_Eyeball]

"Kill one of ours, we'll kill one of yours with some friendly fire, that's a funny term, like civil war" Love it!

[@gamingdiscord7387]

yeah, clever line :)

[@PandaMeetsElvis]

This is on par with The Legion of Doom's mash with Dashboard Confessional and Sage Francis. Very good job :)

[@bleunt]

Nice, Sage makes the sample feel way more alive. with his voice. Amazing.

[@DrTMoneyDog]

I feel like the mashup gives a different tone to the song than the original. I love them both but the atmosphere of it is extremely different

[@annieB5575]

LOVE LOVE LOVE this song!! Sage Your the BEST!

[@jackrennie]

This song is sooo good! i'm seeing SF on december 1st! soo pumped

[@ConspiracyToRiot]

I'm a huge fan of the original Slow Down Ghandhi ..but damn this is a great remix...so much softer than the original, but It really gives you a chance to reflect on the depth of the lyrics..It really is quite brilliant...

[@mokhinda]

Never heard the original, but this mix is awesome! Ill check out the original as soon as im done hearing this...

[@danatodd9398]

All right. I'm Diggin this guy.

[@with33]

its funny cause he is talking about what is the hot topic the 1% ect now adays but he was talking about tis shit in 06 i mean honestly he is a very smart man that tried to open eyes before it was to late. and well now it is.

[@WarningRules]

No, the beat isn't Corny. I thought the same when I first heard the first part of the piano riff, but when the drums came in, and I gave it chance, it's epic. I have this downloaded, and I'm actually surprised that it's on youtube. This version is fantastic.

[@Daniel-ny2zt]

need this on spotify....

[@JerBear117]

possibly the second greatest rap song ever by possibly the greatest rapper ever.

[@jdoy1]

Cannot like this man enough, true poet...

[@bobgnarly1312]

I like this more than both originals

[@jamiekarate6972]

Still relevant

[@spawntanious5637]

2022 and this still slaps!! Love it great remix

[@simonlamoureux6726]

He tell's it like it should be told period.

[@pas479]

Sweet Remix... The beat really sets the deepness of Sage's lyrics in this song. Nice Work!!

[@trollfar404]

he is a great rapper!

[@evansgoff476]

2021, still slaps.

[@c03417]

i don't get the dislike for this mash-up because it's amazing

[@twaslife6092]

both the original songs are dope

[@farheezil]

i totally forgot about this mash up and how awesome it is

[@chamic89]

This is excellent.

[@NITURROY]

2021 and this song still hits home

[@ZombKev]

Fukin awesome! This song now has two sides...both different, both brilliant...what more could you want?!

[@Ratatat6992]

Sage is the shit...that simple.

[@Riya-of6wj]

More relavant than ever

[@bonkersben13]

If you like this listen to Hands down ghandi - legion of doom

[@silkysmith]

Cant get enough of this man

[@program26]

i've been looking for this FOREVER.

[@LoadScreenPirates]

Akira the Don did a great mashup of Slow Down Ghandi and Bittersweet Symphony a long time ago too.

[@AWO7_BigToph]

true beauty

[@DylanOwenMusic]

I personally like this a lot, whoever put it together did a good job. I think the progressions in his voice, like raising intensity and raising the frequency of his lines ("the sickness, the symptoms"), match really well with the hip-hop pad in the beat. Dope, love Sage

[@Joseph-sg8oe]

More relevant than ever now.

[@JamesPanic]

this song is life. scary sometimes, but always beautiful. even through the ugly

[@bellelever3354]

Yes BoB, I am sure you wish to be before a time where your kitchen wasn't a conservatory, you didn't have dogs shifting in your back yard when you aren't even allowed a well behaved cat and you had damp bugs crawling up your walls every night for free. I am glad you appreciate your roots mate.

Oh Yes.... HIP HOP LIVES!!!!!!!!

really good rapp..I lke it more than the original

A song about political conflicts caused by war blended with a song about personal conflicts caused by war.

BRO!!!!!!!!!! HOW GOODS THIS

[@theLadybug92]

i love this. i really, really love this.

[@Shadowblood96]

very good song

[@Immynumber1fan]

best ever! if you don't think so... well then you don't think! so don't!

[@beaverbunger]

the suicidal tendencies reference was awesome.

[@bearglueater]

man fuk all the hating, i love it when people mix tracks and i think its kinna weird that they used fort minor for this song, my fav off of healthy distrust, the original has a much diffrent feel to it. so i can def see where yall are coming from. basicly dont knock someone else for apprieating either track, unless youve got a cd out your self.

[@theLadybug92]

GREAT, i like it a lot better than the real slow down ghandi. i mean, fort minor always sounds great.

[@blaebrobinson895]

Gonna make this a mashup thank you for this.

[@Psychid5]

Nice remix, you've really made some effort in this.. There's still no way I would rather listen to this than the original. You just can't improve perfection.

[@YoungBlade420]

@WarningRules What you talkin bout man, all of Sage Francis is amazing.

[@DaTruMusician]

If you don't like it don't listen to it... It is that easy.

[@Shadowblood96]

like this more than the original but the original is also good

[@OzzieDuff]

@oscob it's not hard to appreciate Sage's lyrical power :) he is more hip-hop, even more punkt, than all the "real" guys out there... just an intelligent, honest and critical emcee... what else you're looking for? and, this remix is grand, there's also a lot of bad remixes around... but, it's okay, keep remixing! respect!

[@ThoSe414NiGhTs]

BRILLIANT !

[@dakotadenverdexter]

I love the way this track makes his lyrics standout way more. Though the fade-out effect Sage has in the original should have been taken out. Good job regardless.

[@memyselfandi2311]

I've missed Fort Minor. "The Rising Tied" was a pretty good album.

[@InternalRhyme]

I actually disagree with a lot of people, i'm feelin this with the fort minor beat

[@BodhisattvaBabe]

❤❤❤

[@Captain_Eyeball]

Seriously awesome lyrics and hard political bars, serious stuff here that some will miss, but hopefully some will hear and relate to.

did a great job. thumbs up bruv.

[@Strolb]

the lyrics are great and the remix made the original song better because of the "Where'd you go" rythm incredible

[@nickbagelboy]

Did anyone else get the "Suicidal Tendencies" reference in this song??!! :)

[@nickbagelboy]

Lmfao I know man, I'm a huge ST fan. I was just a bit surprised to hear it!!

[@nickbagelboy]

Arlington Lacrosse It's all good brotherman!! No need to be sorry about that :) I agree dude!! It's gonna be dope!! As to you as well!! :)

[@CatherineSTodd]

Thanks for pointing this out, Arlington! Lyrics below: Lyrics "Institutionalized" by Sucidal tendencies Sometimes I try to do things And it just doesn't work out the way I wanted to And I get real frustrated And I'm like, I try hard to do it And I'm like, take my time And it doesn't work out the way I wanted to It's like, I concentrate on real hard but it doesn't work out And everything I do and everything I try it never turns out It's like, I need time to figure these things out There's always someone there going, 'Hey, Mike You know, we've been noticing You've been having a lot of problems lately' 'You know, you should, maybe, get away And like, maybe you should talk about it, you'll feel a lot better' And I go, 'No, it's okay, you know I'll figure it out Just leave me alone I'll figure it out You know I'll just work it out myself' And they go, 'Well you know if you want to talk about it I'll be here you know and you'll probably feel a lot better If you talked about it, so why don't you talk about it' I go, 'No, I don't want to I'm okay, I'll figure it out myself' And they just keep bugging me and they just keep bugging me And it builds up inside You're gonna be institutionalized You'll come out brainwashed with bloodshot eyes You won't have any say They'll brainwash you until you see their way I'm not crazy, institution You're the one who's crazy, institution You're driving me crazy, institution They stuck me in an institution Said it was the only solution To give me the needed professional help To protect me from the enemy, myself I was in my room and I was just like staring at the wall Thinking about everything But then again I was thinking about nothing And then my mom came in and I didn't even know she was there She called my name and I didn't even hear it And then she started screaming, 'Mike, Mike' And I go, 'What, what's the matter'' And she goes, 'What's the matter with you'' I go, 'There's nothing wrong, mom' And she goes, 'Don't tell me that, you're on drugs' I go, 'No, mom, I'm not on drugs, I'm okay I was just thinking you know, why don't you get me a Pepsi' And she goes, 'No, you're on drugs I go, 'Mom, I'm okay, I'm just thinking' She goes, 'No you're not thinking, you're on drugs Normal people don't act that way' I go, 'Mom just give me a Pepsi, please' All I want is a Pepsi and she wouldn't give it to me All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one Pepsi And she wouldn't give it to me, just a Pepsi They give you a white shirt with long sleeves Tied around you're back, you're treated like thieves Drug you up because they're lazy It's too much work to help a crazy I'm not crazy, institution You're the one who's crazy, institution You're driving me crazy, institution They stuck me in an institution Said it was the only solution To give me the needed professional help To protect me from the enemy, myself I'm sitting in my room and my mom and my dad came in They pulled up a chair and they sat down, they go 'Mike, we need to talk to you' I go, 'Okay, what's the matter'' They go, 'Me and your mom have been noticing lately That you've been having a lot of problems You've been going off for no reason and we're afraid You're gonna hurt somebody We're afraid you're gonna hurt yourself' 'So we decided that it would be in your interest If we put you somewhere Where you could get the help that you need' And I go, 'Wait, what are you talking about, we decided My best interest, how can you know what's my best interest is'' 'How can you say what my best interest is' What are you trying to say, I'm crazy' When I went to your schools, I went to your churches I went to your institutional learning facilities' So how can you say I'm crazy'' They say they're gonna fix my brain Alleviate my suffering and my pain But by the time they fix my head Mentally, I'll be dead I'm not crazy, institution You're the one who's crazy, institution You're driving me crazy, institution They stuck me in an institution Said it was the only solution To give me the needed professional help To protect me from the enemy, myself It doesn't matter, I'll probably get hit by a car anyway Written by Columbus Smith, Fredrik Halldin, Kendrick Lamar, Sam Barsh • Copyright © Warner/Chappell Music, Inc, Universal Music Publishing Group

[@michaelking9568]

Yes I did. And it reminded me of Cypress Hill.

[@TheCrederer]

Not until my older cousin, who doesn't typically like hip hop, nor do I but wanted him to listen to uncle sage, and I showed him this song first. Then he told me about the Pepsi. I didn't understand that line at all until then
