A decade later and this song still hits me just as hard, love you bro

amazing song love you wax

[@walkingw3348]

That verse about the basketball player was wicked good.

[@desireoverpain]

it fucks me up emotionally every time i hear those verses

Is it about a real guy?

[@06KAVA]

I’m graduating from university next weekend after years of struggling and believing I wasn’t cut for school. My graduation cap says “A single achiever can make a billion believers”. Thank you wax, I’m one of the billion believers that stemmed from your achievements.

[@homelessEh]

after you make that 100,000$ back to pay tuition IF you even get near the profession you went to fool school for. pray to god you didnt take none of that gender studys shit.

[@relaxingvgm5423]

@@homelessEh lol go play world of tanks or combots n stfu

[@Amins88]

I really hope things worked out for you. But that wasn't the message of the song. Unfortunately a single achiever breeds a billion believers with big dreams and even bigger messes when those dreams fall apart. We can't all be heroes, but we should learn to be appreciative of the abilities that make us heroes to the people that we care about.

[@jonathankiezer4007]

"Its hard enough to live under the pressure of average expectations" -Wax Damn man, so deep. Thanks Wax

[@rockoutmichigan]

This song never fails to get a fella a bit choked up...

[@Malcolmovic]

The outro to “feels good” is getting to me lately

[@hehaheadshot97]

This is one of the greatest songs of all time.

[@Panicatpure10]

This should have millions of views. It's real shit. Not fake.

[@jameschandler6449]

It finally did

[@kallerkaller469]

It is not the real wax channel

[@ImRefraction]

but isnt that kinda how its been going lately

[@AngelosPT]

Listening to this song, thinking about the message and I pondered the phrase "stop judging me". I imagined saying that, from me to me, to not be so hard on myself as I was pointing at my chest and I just wept uncontrollably. This is the most powerful song I have heard in a long time.

[@Iproductions0]

Miguel Pires from time to time life gets to be too much for me. When things look like they arent getting better this song saves me everytime. I feel you my guy

[@billyrapture7291]

Me too bruh. Me too...

[@jaredpatton7884]

I CRIED LIKE A BABY BRO I COULD NOT STOP WHEN I FIRST HEARD THIS SONG ITS SO BEAUTIFUL

[@jonabramo3991]

Right there with you. I heard this song on Spotify ranadomly like atleast 5 years ago. I'm shocked on how little views this song has..

[@jeneefowler]

You are a beautiful artist with an incredible soul. Thank you for sharing your gift with the world.

[@Alex-hw4qm]

Wax is a very inspirational song writer. He is an amazing story teller and is a professional shade thrower. Wax is the man. He deserves more than he has

[@AntZPr0ductions]

Proof that real rap still exists. Wax killed it. I heard this song on Sirius Radio one day at my construction job site. Then downloaded it when I got home. Keep rap alive!

[@joshuasjericho3915]

Amen

[@goodfella1422]

2025 i still come back to this song.

[@paulvalle3911]

As an artist myself I was able to relate to every single lyric in this song. You have a gift wax, but it's a shame that more people don't see that. In my opinion your one of the best musicians this world has to offer.

[@paulvalle3911]

There were times where I felt depressed and alone and I would throw on one of your songs and I would feel like there was someone out there who understands.

[@fuzzypickles242]

this song is a fucking masterpiece

[@TVanH]

Indeed it is

[@mathewmara2184]

I come back to this video every few years to reminisce on my life the last time I was here. Thanks Wax. I love this ❤

[@caroljohnston6522]

Love this song ❤❤❤ says it all!😢

[@Gimshi]

Wax is dope. This is an amazing song. This is why Wax has followers instead of fans.

[@MrKingofSkull]

Man...when a fucked up day hits you in the face this song helps...long live wax thank you man for the release

[@LuigiVN]

It's very interesting to come back to this song 8 years after it came out. Wax is a lot happier and acknowledging of his talent in the newer songs. I like how we have accompanied him through his music through his progression as a person and an artist. And he has accompanied us as well. My life's soundtrack cannot be established without multiple Wax songs. Like this one.

[@CosmoKramer34]

One of my favorite songs EVER

[@MagnifyGaming]

Yo this song really spoke to me man... I've recently just listened to all of your work and I really enjoy your outlook on music and life to be honest. Just glad to see you can work with your dream to thrive in this thing we call life.

[@lucasprieto123cheese]

It’s hard enough not to crack under the pressure of average expectations

[@TheWikkdOne]

Wax your music means so damn much to me. You have been my favorite artist since 2012. And I continuously come back to this track as my favorite of all time. I love you and hope you're well man.

[@derickvermillion659]

Through my life I keep having people tell me I'm smart and it's on a different level and I needed to do something with it. Teachers, friends, grandfather, mother, principals etc. It fuels an ambition in me to the occasional point of unhealthy obsession. This song is very relatable for me.

[@PlumbRandomNoob]

Song makes me break down every time... We're stronger than this bullshit... we can make it through this, this isn't even bad... we've been through so much worse. Keep your head up.

[@lennard5393]

True fam-

[@Nfl360]

Truly iconic song. Hopefully future generations come back and appreciate Wax as the brilliant artist that he is.

[@dyerman91]

This song is hands down my favorite song by wax!!! I can listen to it in the gym and have a crazy workout with it on repeat or just sit at home and relax. The message this song give me could push me through all my hard times in life! Keep it up wax!

[@billyjames9315]

Only OGs will remember when this came on MTV2. Been with you since your freestyle for that magazine contest! 🎧🔥👏

[@anthonytruman]

The lyrics and storytelling in this song are amazing. Wax makes really good heartfelt music and lyrics and really good fun music and lyrics too

[@MrPounani]

the instrumental takes this song to a whole other level, it sounds like a classic rap song if there was rap in the 50s

[@HiItsKeven]

This song really needs more recognition...

[@atlas1]

Amazing song dude, made my day, and now its time to keep studying and follow my dreams! I will try to be a hero!

"Stop fucking with me! The only person thats judging me is myself" We really are all on this boat together.

[@datgai9265]

wow.... The lyrics of this song. then the message at the end, we can't all be heroes. It's something we all need to hear when the pressures of life are too much. I needed this.

[@elsenorlopes]

Wax connects with his audience, he knows how we're feeling, other rappers rap about Maseratis and Buggati bitch please does it look like we have Buggatis or Maseratis?

[@connorwhittle225]

By 'other rappers' I hope you mean mainstream rappers, otherwise you're wrong.

[@HarryBalzak]

Check out "I'm Awesome" by Spose.

[@bigsteve6200]

Wax, you should be proud of yourself. This song would have been a big hit back in the 70's. The strings and the fat horn sound gave it that edgy soul sound you would only find in the 70's. Right on !.

[@tomhiggins8082]

Damn, another incredible song... His shit is real, it matches my life/our lives. Like someone said in an earlier comment, nobody I know drives a Bentley or a Buggatti, but a lot of folks I know struggle daily, still trying to measure up to old faded dreams of what they were supposed to be. Fuck that, keep ya chin up, try hard and be proud of who you are where you are. Stop judging me.

[@rockodonnie]

Underrated under appreciated

[@KrombobulousMitchell]

[@abastasolo4635]

[@daltonlong2346]

The music sample is far above anything else I can think of recently, lyrically it just hits so hard, too. What an incredible song. Top tier.

[@sparkyjr.3121]

I feel like I never dreamt big. I never had something that I said I want to give everything I have for "this". It's actually why I love artists that pour their soul out for what they make. I'm going to make a dream it's not a mansion, but I want to best at what I do and live comfortably. I'm not talking about wealth, I'm talking about my brain, I'm talking about mental health.

[@christianackley7147]

How old are you mate? Life aint over yet. If you havent found that thing, keep looking.

[@heckawesome]

That if you truly inspire to reach towards your dreams, don't ignore the fact the you could fall down in the process. Wax isn't saying that you can't make it, he's saying that we can't all be heroes.

[@tomasguadalupe]

Realmente bueno. Sigo sin entender por qué Wax no es todavía uno de los más grandes. Talento en toneladas...

[@bboyshotty]

still love wax and this track..such gems

[@jamesmurphy7919]

thank god we have wax to tell us how we feel

[@DatBoiLex]

Dream big, you reach those dreams, you fight to maintain it, you lose yourself, you hit rock bottom.

[@lucapachee9863]

I love this song but damn, this music video is immaculate. The second verse shows Wax fidgeting his hands and then pulling out a cig and smoking and then the basketball player dressed up has light rays and sunlight when he feels like he's ballin and as it goes on and he gets more weary the light fades and the surroundings become more drab. Very impressive.

[@Crazymofo213]

This is the type of rap that deserves to be played on radios and get millions of views on youtube. Its rap with an actual purpose and a meaningful message.

[@Texarkade]

Cuz this guy isnt on disney channel and he isint sticking out hisntounge. This is the music kids should listien today. This song hits deep.

[@Swirvles]

i respect this man so much for dropping the money and fame (Def Jam Record) in pursuit of doing what he does best.
