"Intro III" Is DEEPDEEPDEEP | NF Lyrics Explained

[@edenbru11]

I’m so happy for this explanation NF has quickly become one of my favorite artists he’s so poetic and I love it

[@sunflower9749]

Same

[@WolfIshElm]

Been listening to him since early 2013, his music never gets old and he always finds something to rap about. He is a god with words and says them with the best possible beats. Keep listening to him and fall in deep to your thoughts

[@CousinJustice15652]

I've never really liked rap (except for tøp), but ever since you explained "Why" and I went and watched the video...I've found myself getting more and more into NF. I have a lot more pain and fear in my life right now than I'm used to handling, and I guess it just seems like his music is meeting me where I'm at. Come to think of it, that's how I got into tøp back in 2016, as well...

[@jamesrandall9489]

I'm in the exact same boat as you.

[@joshconnell8797]

Top and nf r great.

[@TheOgreMan]

In ways, NF is a lot like Twenty One Pilots. Christian themes, emotional deep lyrics covering fear and being so vulnerable. NF is the TOP of pure rap and he's amazing at what he does

[@leendaas4426]

3:36 no I'm exactly here for that kind of quality content

[@ThePopSongProfessor]

Glad it didn't scare you away.

[@juliuspallotta6471]

You should cover a rap (either top or NF) on your channel!

[@leendaas4426]

The Pop Song Professor lawd no 😂 I'm thinking you should start your own career as a rapper

[@CousinJustice15652]

Erm, have you seen his "Becoming Rap Gods" video? I'd think twice about giving that advice...😂

[@ncsredemption8942]

This song is lyrically amazing, I have no words for it. NF is just truly amazing.

[@cosmicroyale]

*giving into peer pressure I see, Cliff* 😂💕

[@formlesscorvid5336]

Cosmic Royale Goddammit Cliff, you're a teacher, you shouldn't be endorsing that behaviour!

[@nelabecirbasic2666]

Please do Know by NF ❤❤

[@JediJack16]

NF is one of those guys that sounds like he freestyles the whole thing in one go because of how deep it gets. Also that last line: "Cause I thought you had me in prison this whole time, but I'm the one holdin' the keys" Sends chills up my spine every time.

[@big-fish1199]

Thank you, Thank You, Thank you!! I have been awaiting this video for weeks! I am forever your loyal subscriber.

[@KidddRock]

Great reaction and breakdown of the song!! If you do more NF u will have so many new subscribers!! Probably thousands!!

[@RozuHime]

Wow your rapping skills are getting better Prof! 👍🏼

[@Soren_Hayes]

I like how fear says “hey that’s pretty deep isn’t it?” And it’s a double meaning referring to both the lyrics being deep and the hole

[@AyaMohamed-ko3ri]

I love this song so much. Thanks prof 😇

[@SmokeEater_]

He means you wouldn't know love without realizing what pain is as a difference

[@b27d83]

OH MY GOD THE GREATEST EXPLANATION EVER. NOW I COMPLETELY & fully get every single line. THANKS SO MUCH!!!💜

[@liorpoliti]

Oh my god dude I love this song so much and had no idea what it actually meant I thought it was two different people talking thanks man this makes listening to the song so much better, it really makes it deeper

[@lucaswassink3039]

"If you didnt want me to live in your house, you shouldn’t have let me move in.” This also refers to his song mansion where fear moved in to his house.

[@chelseasammons3947]

Please do Wake Up by NF!!

[@trent5]

Hey Clifford, I'd like to apologize for something I did a few months back. I left quite a rude comment on your 'top 7 worst twenty one pilots songs' video. I have since then re-watched the video, this time factoring in that it was your opinion, and that you're a professor. It really isn't like me to do things like this and I apologize for what I've said. The comment has been deleted. Now since I'm writing a comment anyway, let me just express how much I actually love your videos! Your explanations are detailed and easy to understand, and your roasts of modern pop songs make me laugh. Keep up the amazing work, can't wait to see what you have in store for us next video! :)

[@jaylabrewer5606]

I think of the fear side of NF that he’s talking about as anxiety and lemme just tell you....woooweee.....gets me every time.

[@Jorg_Jorgenson]

NF actually references TOP Stressed Out in his song Know, that might be a good song to explain.

[@olio6535]

It’s On Us by AJR PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE 😁😁😁

[@mrsnow3268]

5:38 I think people are still missing the incredibly clever duality of his use of "deep": his Fear is mocking the depth of NF's songs and calling them typical of NF, but he's also standing there watching NF ignore him and continuing to dig a hole, making the offhand observation "alright, [that HOLE] is pretty deep, isn't it??" You get hit with both meanings, when you think about it, and realize the frustration and drive of NF to deal with his Fear and dig that hole deeper to keep Fear farther away.

[@rach.braido]

Oh man this video is so good! Intro III means a lot to me personally because I thought I was living in a prison for the past years and now I'm taking control of my life. And the TØP references are the best. I do that all the time... 😂😂😂

[@seannelson894]

The pain love relationship is not how pain comes with love but how you can't appreciate love without pain to contrast it.

[@ryanaguas6463]

NF is my favorite artist but i never really got into Intro III because i didnt quite understand it. This really helped me to understand and appreciate this song thanks.

[@stupid_flannel_gal9046]

4:51 He also mentioned this is his song mansion. But thanks for the breakdown! I needed to figure out who was talking, I’m making a music video. But I agree a lot with how you introduced and interpreted the song!!! NF real music❤️

[@asabee1055]

you have to have pain to have love. it’s like you can’t see the stars unless there’s darkness. but rlly good vid i love it!

[@Luna_0818]

I love this! I read it as me talking to my addictions and alcoholism. It’s such a deep song

[@GM15_Official]

I love NF and TOP their my favorites thats how i found your channel

[@carleciaw1215]

NF’s fear is penny wise and NF is the kids who defeated him in the first chapter

[@emo_band_official7177]

Can you explain vampire money i just love that song so much.💞 Edit: i got noticed

[@romanyoder9266]

PSP: "Why do reference everything back to twenty one pilots??" Clique: Because twenty one pilots is life!

[@WolfIshElm]

Roman Yoder i honestly dont like TOP as much as NF, they’re good but not NF good

[@paigeek28]

This was great! I loved hiw you described everything. You're right about the part where he let fear have a foothold on his life. However, what he truly means when he says, "You didn't want me to live in your house? You shouldn't have let me move in." Is in reference to his song mansion which is what this whole song is really a followup to. He considers his mind a home he is trapped in. A place where fear is always lingering. Listen to mansion and then Intro III!

[@nicolelibra8208]

Can you explain hometown by twenty one pilots or losing my life by falling in reverse?

[@MONIKUH]

THERE'S A NEW TØP SONG FOUND FROM NO PHUN INTENDED! IT'S CALLED "GOING DOWN" AND WE'VE JUST FOUND UT TODAY! YOU SHOULD LISTEN TO IT.

[@bimmy6823]

That's a great song but it's not new

[@Smiley_ASMR]

The first time I listened to this song I just liked the intense orchestra music building up dramatically in the background cause I absolutely LOVE it when artists mix unlikely genres like that. The more I listened I thought maybe it was about an abusive relationship in a more literal sense. Today I listened and it totally hit me exactly what perspective the lyrics are written from. Absolutely amazing I was blown away

[@formlesscorvid5336]

... I didn't expect this. I don't like rap. I think I _will_ like this...

[@ThePopSongProfessor]

It's SOOOO GOOD

[@formlesscorvid5336]

The Pop Song Professor I'll check it out

[@MackenzieSquire]

i’m doing an animation video for this song and this explanation was absolutely perfect thank you so much

[@emery9533]

Ooooo listen to all three intros together!!!! They tell a story!!!

[@amarion]

How have you not already done this masterpiece!?!

[@juliuspallotta6471]

The Pop Song Professor Listen to Mansion and at the end, it'll link to Intro III.

[@geefryherrera8412]

Wowowow Man U just gave me more brain cells lmao, I loved this song but couldn’t catch everything and was too lazy to look at the lyrics but wow Man U explained it so well that now when I hear it I can see both fear and NF arguing and it shows me how talented NF is cuz it’s poetic!!!

[@anti_MATT_er]

Yeah! I was just listening to NF when I saw this on my recommended.

[@isabellefaith5285]

Ahhh I love Intro III, it might just be my favorite NF song. The lyrics are just genius.

[@leendaas4426]

I also feel like this song is s7 Sam Winchester

[@potatoeschalamet2038]

YES YES YES. THIS NF SONG IS AMAZING

[@nicolelibra8208]

I love this song

[@aimee4768]

Yay, thank you!! I love this song

[@Anna-lj8ws]

Awesome explanation! I really love you channel!

[@avisrivastava4140]

Funny how jolly the beat is

[@burkelarsen8955]

Cliff I love the explanation! However, you state that pain in not necessary to experience love. I disagree only in that the contrast of emotions allows us to more full experience the other side. Light to dark, happy to sad, pain to pleasure. Without each we can know the other.

[@sillyybilly]

Yessss I love NF!!!

[@unicornawesomeness7278]

Plz explain more of NF’s songs plzzzzzzzz

[@MysteryGaymer]

I have DID and got such a relatable vibe with it.

[@jeannieripley426]

One of his best songs

[@formlesscorvid5336]

3:50 Josh you're out of the band.

[@ThePopSongProfessor]

lol!

[@formlesscorvid5336]

The Pop Song Professor I mean, come on.

[@teagansavage3670]

YASS. THIS IS THE VIDEO I WANTED

[@rarelyawake1716]

Asking often enough? Well then I still want you to explain fire flies by gorillaz because i still don't know what the lyrics mean lol

[@nathanielnathi5159]

I was visualizing the same story,but I wasn't sure. Well thanks 👌

[@unarmedstrike1487]

Great video but no one can answer my question, which song is about Johnny

[@kori_jane2431]

CLIFF!!! First, I love NF. Second, you've got to watch XXXTENTACION's video for SAD! You'll love it so much. It's really amazing

[@brizzain7618]

This is a theory I Guess Since only NF Knows what it means

[@purplezombie4940]

Honestly, this is the first NF song I've heard of him and I thought it was a boyfriend and girlfriend or a two best friends fighting over something and one killing the other after being pushed too far XD

[@no.rest.in.this.measure]

I HAVE A CHALLENGE/EXPERIMENT FOR YOU. You should try to explain a song with a positive connotation for an artist that you don't like. Like post Malone, maybe? And see how it goes. I would personally be curious how much power you have over the meaning of a song! How much you can actually spin a god-awful song to be a really good song!!

[@lilyc4212]

Please do a Shawn MENDES song, maybe hold on, bad reputation, or a little too much

[@sj-dw8mw]

I think you’d enjoy breaking down some of Hozier’s songs, particularly the ones from his album From Eden!

[@lanecrum7010]

When this dude danced with the hat he had my sub like and notifications in the bag 🤣

[@Joan1124]

EXPLAIN NF-LET YOU DOWN AND THE MUSIC VIDEO!

[@andrewmedrano1586]

Nice video!

[@aleciadripmsp3338]

you kind of looked like pewdiepie when you had that hat on but idk i love the video!

[@bitingthehand]

PLEASE DO BILLIE EILISH!!!! I know she isn't what you usually do but she's really popular and I would appreciate if you explained one of her songs.

[@vcfdanny1743]

Lol

[@oohRemix]

This song is about his dad...

[@Sam-bl5dp]

Wow, this video came out a couple days after i first heard this song😂

[@damonoftheday723]

Do "Snakes" by Bastille.

[@doodoopoo]

Please explain "Who we are" by Imagine dragons (If you already did, I can't find it)

[@jonascarrillo9820]

Talking about dreams and aspirations, listen to when I grow up by nf lol

[@formlesscorvid5336]

Odin's asleep... He'll be mad when I tell him I watched you without his help.

[@ThePopSongProfessor]

Poor, Odin! Let him rewatch it on his own time at least. lol

[@formlesscorvid5336]

I will. But he wouldn't have missed it of he hadn't been flirting with the Doberman across the street all night!

[@ryanaguas6463]

Do If You want Love and Remember This by NF please

[@formlesscorvid5336]

Odin says you made a very good video and he's going to stay awake tomorrow.

[@3k9x]

Top news: twenty one pilots released a short distorted song clip on their DEMA website!

[@sharifurpervez8192]

Explain SAD! Music video and song

[@julia-md9bh]

THANK YOU

[@Its_Bennyboi]

1st HAPPY 4TH OF JULY, 2nd please do dead man's arms by brishop briggs

[@Gianna20958]

in this song, he says he wrote a song about johnny right, who is his abuser, right, but has he released it yet? is it another song I missed? i need answers

[@zojaskubic9553]

I know you are probably sick of panic! but can you do lying is the most fun a girl can have without taking her clothes of

[@blurryragnarok7020]

Hey dude can you do NF why

[@seandoyle454]

YOU SHOULD TOTALLY DO SOME EVERYTHING EVERYTHING NEXT. THEIR LYRICS CAN BE DENSE AND CRYPTIC WHICH WOULD BE PERFECT FOR YOUR CHANNEL. MAYBE THEIR SONG 'SCHOOLIN'

[@stillfuture2077]

I'm doing a school project on this song

[@SpacingOutGaming]

I think that a third NF person is there at the end

[@lillyolivia9253]

ALEC BENJAMIN!!!

[@VirginiaMRodriguez]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[@leanderhulzebosch2047]

Please do the new released track Going Down by Tyler Joseph.

[@AA-zs2wn]

What is the song nf needs anger for

[@Leahme12]

Brother by Gerard Way please

[@Froglasso]

SAD! music video next!

[@curledseeker6139]

Sad would be awesome. Btw pps you are great and your videos are awesome but I think you listen to requests a bit too much. NF and panic! are both getting pretty popular but I think you should stick to what you like and things like Sad that you know are deep. You have an awesome ability to explain songs but I don’t know if I would watch your videos anymore if you do this kind of music.

[@Froglasso]

ChrisDashTV What are you saying about my videos??

[@Froglasso]

ChrisDashTV Ohh you saying that to pop song professor nvm

[@BraaapMachineSam]

anyone else feel like the background is a little too happy for the topic...

[@williamtroy4666]

Me personally, I thought it was depression talking to him when I first heard this

[@aka5737]

Please do anything by ‘the story so far’ please

[@Christina-bg1mz]

please do remember this :)
