Macklemore - Kevin Lyrics

brasil !!!!😎😎😎que flow

Valentine's Day Anyone?

Valentine's Day Anyone?

I know that there are many scribblers out there; and the first benzo I took was from my mom's med cabinet. She caught on fast though and it ended-for a while. My point is this , I know very few people who got hooked because their doctor gave them meds. In my life every one I know was introduced to it by a boyfriend, "friend" or whatever. When I was in the hospital my roommate was 80+ years old and she had to beg for a Percocet! There's a balance between over and under prescribing and I truly believe that as a society we need to find it! Fast because people are dying and they're labeled by the police and rescue as NHI! BTW that stands for "no humans involved!" Sad, isn't it? I think the appropriate term is tragic!

I'm hear in 2020

R.I.P Kevin

The beat started out so happy lol

One of his best songs. F mumble rap

If this guy is such a racial hero why doesn’t he trade off his privileged position why doesn’t he switch places with someone who isn’t as fortunate instead of just talking about it? Hypocrisy

These is such a true song. My sister od at 26 i miss her everyday christna i miss you

my favorite

IDK love this song since 2016

Who the eff is downvoting this song!!!! This song is crazy good.

Drug dealers and pharmacists.

Please make more videos on your super meaningful songs like this one, i think st. ides definitely deserves one

We need to talk about jewish supremacy and the opiate crisis

its funny America anwsered that it is worth it smh....

This song is OMG 😭 can't describe 🔥🔥🔥

I'm not living in the USA but have been prescribed daily Xanax and Ambien for 2 years now, not knowing both are only meant for short term treatment.

This song is difficult to find on google in 2019, btw. Purposefully I imagine.

We’re going to need a miracle at this point. Good luck to you all

I came here after watching the reading interview Of Macklemore on Hollywood Medium with Tyler

Love this song. Love REAL artists!
2019 < Still here

Now pardue files bankruptcy to avoid criminal n civil judgement, somethin ain't right ???

It’s 2019. But this was the best song in 2016

three years later and still a bop,, vv underrated

i'm not a fan of macklemore at ALL. but this song is pretty good man.

Real talk. It's beautiful.

Yeyeyeyeeeeah

He should win Emmy for the truth not Taylor Swift

so many true words

People are waking up, dead, in living rooms All over the world...
Get iT?

R. There any music that u’ve done lately?

Macklemore and Leon Bridges need to collab again! This song is amazing and those two are great together.

First time I have heard this song, but I really love your vibe brother. I have recovered from being on downers. I have seen people die from it. Honestly music, is what saved me. Please keep sharing your story.

Wow Leon💜💗💗

Macklemore is my favorite. Literally so real and relatable. I love it. This is one of my fave songs by him

RIP kevin

Great job Ben!! Good work son!!

They showed this is health during our drug unit.

*sniff*sniff this was a song he wrote about his friend Kevin.

May you RIP Kevin.

Macklemore I would love to tell you a personal story about the Mississippi River and my anxiety and depression but I'm not putting it on this so if you find me on Facebook you can hear it I still love your music but I would really like to tell you a personal story about drugs and the Mississippi

Much Respect for his advocacy• As we know more we must do ✊🏾

All this is NOT ON THE DR!!!!!! hate shit like this!!!!! Stop blaming everyone else but ourselves!!!!!!! We know why we went!

I dont get the message

Love this. Suits me

Macklemore spits but the vocals from Leon Bridges just brings that soul.

"First dealer was his Moms medicine cabinet" wow thats deep

wwll never ended. we adopted everything hitler did and call him a bad guy. SSN (barcodes), Drug testing, etc.

Amooooo essa música!!😍😍

Music with substance, true meaning, powerful music, I respect Macklemore, underrated but I guess most people just don't know what good music is

2:19 That microphone pop up though lol

This song is incredible ... why did I never listen to it before ? His songs does matter so much

I'd like to think that the pain in Macklemore's face just before they cut away on several verses goes to show how raw and close to home this song really is for him.

song is ok, but beat is not accurate

Says who

macklemore doesn't get enough respect

Ya killing me ya killing me be careful bud

Man this is so sad & so true!! All the deaths could've been prevented if the damn doctors would stop writing out death prescriptions! They "fix" one problem to cause another to keep their pockets full & wives happy. Absolutely sickening

anyone in 2019 sorry this is so late i freaking love Macklemore i wish i could meet him they are probably only older people here but im only 11 and love his stuff. Macklemore and Slug should do a song together

Who is Slug??

@JazzyKrisis he's a rapper also known as Atmosphere

Made me cry

R.I.P. Wyndi 😞

This man is pure beauty . As he says in white privilege 2 “I’ve heard that silence is an action , and god knows that I’ve been passive” and through that song and many others you can see what a man he has become and talks about the real prevalent struggles in this world . So to you, Ben I say thank you and congratulations

leon bridges the voice= angelic

2019 and still one of my favorite modern Macklemore songs.

2019! Love!

Man Leon’s voice is like silk

03/02-19, I love u all. Take care❤️

1/30/19❤️ This comment is frozen in time

I see you Mack #girlonboard295corridor 7millie stay inspired!

My favorite human

So America, is it really worth it? 😥 This song made me cry

Germans = Nazis. So Germany, is it really worth it? 😥 USA: 2 - - 0 :Germany

@kiDkiDkiD12 I'm from Germany. And "Nazi" is stereotypical. And 'everyone is equal'... So shut up if you don't know Germany

A dose for all of us please

Is it weird how both Macklemore and I are from Seattle, and I have a little brother named Kevin?

I love this in every way

This song and "Drug Dealer" right now is more relevant in my life than I had hoped it would be...

My brother-in-law OD'd 3 weeks ago with MJ, Coke, and Xanx in his system... He was 21. 

He got hooked on oxy in 10th grade when he was being bullied and started self-medicating. it spun out of control until it caught up with him. He was scheduled to go to Rehab and Od'd 5 days before his appointment. He literally was gonna quit tomorrow... After going through his phone he wrote some BEAUTIFUL raps.

At his funeral, my wife probably said it best - "it's time we stopped looking at addicted individuals as bad people, but rather sick people. Addiction isn't a solo game. Eventually, the whole family will have to play."

Someone wrote on here this quote. Can't cure a spiritual problem with a chemical solution...
That hits hard!

Doctor please give me a dose of the brexit dream!

I know I keep commenting on this video, but it's touched me a lot. Among other issues touched on, I relate to it because I feel I was overmedicated as a child, with Ritalin, Prozac, etc., when I don't think there was ever anything actually "wrong" with me, except being bored in school, so I wasn't paying attention to "learning" things I'd known for years. I could read when I was 3 - I have no memory of learning to read; in my memory, I've always been able to read.

Took a long time to get off of anti-depressants, not because I was ever depressed, but because of the discontinuation syndrome - took 3 doctors to find one who believed me and was willing to help. It took a while, but I'm off of (almost) everything, like that, now, and no, not depressed. I don't think I ever was, at that time, that I can remember. Only angry at the doctor who talked my mom into thinking there was something wrong with me, when I was just bored of hearing kids learning to read, when I already could, so my teacher said I wasn't paying attention. I was, I'd just already read ahead in all of the given material, so there was nothing left to do but listen and draw and look out the window.

She didn't bother to ask if I was paying attention or learning anything, just armchair diagnosed me with ADD-inattentive (the phrase at the time) so the whole machine got a doctor to diagnose and medicate me, instead of offering more challenging assignments than learning to read "cat" and "dog" when I was already looking up words like "unnecessary" and "wary" on my own.

I already knew how to read, and was learning how to teach myself more, but since I was bored stiff listening to the alphabet in 1st grade, I was "diagnosed" with something that had nothing to do with me, and a few years later, with being "depressed", when I just wasn't. I was a happy child, besides being dragged to that idiot doctor all the time. My other memories are all happy and fun, so I have no clue where he got that from.

I look him up every few years (Dr. William Weathers, Greenville, SC - be wary, anyone considering taking your child to him - PLEASE DON'T), hoping he's finally dead, so he can stop mis-diagnosing and over-medicating normal children, but he's not, almost 30 years later. Still "practicing medicine." And of course, he doesn't have an email address so I can tell him how completely wrong he was, and about all the years of issues he caused me, trying to get off of his "medicine" I never needed or wanted in the first place. And, thanks to him, I find it hard to have any trust in any doctor, so I avoid them, when I'm getting to the age I should probably be seeking them out.

The pharmaceutical industry is a terrible circle, in so many ways.

This is so sad and true. All gonna quit tomorrow. And then...

Macklemore makes the kind of music that gets you through a hard day

Yep the pills have given me polycystic overies breast cysts and epilepsy plus suicidal tendencys I nearly killed myself this weekend I took all my sleepers and nurophen silly way to do it I guess I'm just a coward for trying to kill myself I have a fucked up life but it's my burden to bear and I won't bother you with all the details but yeah 21 plus years of being a mental health patient and never believed this song is the best song to give it to the mental health system in Australia and big pharma. Thanks for the tune love your music.

R.I.P KEVIN R.I.P COREY

One of my favorite songs of his

2018 anyone ?

God he helped me so much through my relapses and recovery he speaks truth I get chills everytime I hear this song

Wooow.... the truth!

Groetjesss

I know and that cloud be me once again. Except I don’t think I cloud or would live that long afterwards. Cause I’ve been clean from OxyContin for 10Years. And the Billy Holiday detox. Never again and .why would anyone even think about Methadone or as it is in B.C methadose . I think or that shit as lickewided shackles.!!! I know that song is so true Big Pharma+ the Doctors are the biggest drug Dealers . At least in North America.💊💉⚰️

Soy el único que escucha canciones en inglés y abla español

Macklemore you are the most important person to me, you inspire me and so many other kids in this world

I could listen to this song a thousand times and never get tired of it. Fucken love it.

2018 anyone?

I have been listening to this song in such a new way- so sick of every kid I teach taking meds. so sick of everyone getting cancer. so sick of everyone not seeing the truth. - please read Medical Medium if you want to find health and freedom from the Standard American thinking of wellness-a pill is the root of the ill; clean foods. clean water, clean air = no need for the madness of manmade" science' Chris Beats Cancer- we don't need pink shirts- there is a cure to EBV- over proscribed by lies!!!! GMO foods are hurting us .....generations are getting sicker, numb to nature, and how to be really awake to the american dream.

I once was bedridden; after my own personal search away from the help of the standard care of doctor who has no nutritional training... I am free of processed sugar and many foods that are littered with toxins that take away energy, happiness, and focus. I hate to see so many that are trusting the care they receiving.

Leon Bridges killed this!!!

“It’s Tuesday then it’s Wednesday then it’s fuck it” story of a lot of us one thing I think me and Mack differ is i think he believes that the drugs are the problems they aren’t the doctors shouldn’t hand out drugs but the drugs are a symptom

Thank you, for this beautiful tribute to baby kev. It took me a long time to be able to listen to it. I used to watch the town on repeat after he passed just so I could see his face. I'd rewind it over and over. I miss him so much!
