  • This is off Ironman. Similar intro to Iron Maiden

  • Real Shit

  • ye man them damn days were hard

  • Poverty affects us all - black, white, brown, yellow, etc.

    Ghostface just tells his story which is from a black perspective, just like Steinbeck tells his story the 'Grapes of Wrath' with poor white sharecroppers.

    Respect the art of story telling because very few can actually convey a powerful message in few words.

  • a real struggle

  • This is the realest shit that Ghostface ever wrote. Anybody know why Mary j wasn't in the video?

  • boy this shit sad sraight up

  • real shit

  • last night me and some friends rolled 3 cars deep into the real Proctor Valley Rd out by Jamul (for those who don't know we live in San Diego, CA); i was in the last car. as we were going downhill my homie's windshield got foggy as hell, then once it started to defrost I SWEAR it spelled out d.e.v.i.l. my homie even saw it. and to top it all of there was this car following us from a distance, it stopped when we stopped and everything; we believe it was the KKK. this song was playing.

  • i actually wrote something like that too, but my post got erased cuz the song switched on my playlist to the next song. i justs didn't bother cuz it got me a bit mad, lol. but yeah, song made me cry today, it's done that before too, not all the time though, guess it depends on the thoughts, feelings and empathizing.

  • after i listen to this song, i feel like driving like 20mins to the north shore of shoalin and give ghost a blunt

  • One of my fav songs but anytime I listen to it it royally messes with me. We all made it through but damn, songs like this can bring it all back like it was yesterday...amazing what art can do. Respect to Ghostface for this one Mx

  • Its real dope u guys bother to give props for qual! Do it hard in the blvd

  • Dope song, excellent quality video.

  • Thanx for the good audio/visual....much better than other versions on youtube.

  • thanx..Im always lookin for that good quality.

  • true that. best version of the vid i could find

  • love this song, it makes me think of everything thats going down.. but my favorite part was grandma held the family down... i didnt like to sleep with john john he peed the bed.. took spit and wiped the coles outta my eyes

  • "free lunch held us down"

  • free lunch had us straight everyday!!!!!!

  • Ghos straight frontin on that piano..! BAhaha ...

    real song nonetheless.

  • haha u know it.. daamn thank ghost for sampling soulful tracks like these.. an the thing is he doesnt try to mask them by speeding up the BPM like Kanye does..if it wasnt for this track i probably wouldnt knw about the original by michael or the movie education of sonny carson.

  • "I didn't like to sleep with John John: he peed the bed." Lol my favorite line. GhostFace Classic.

  • @JeReL19 Same here.haha!

  • HIP-HOP!

  • this is exactly why ghost is the illest in Wu...he made that shit that made you laugh, cry, think, and just say "run that back"...cant nobody flip this and make this more meanginful than him..

    R.I.P MJ

    WU TANG IS STILL FOREVER

  • the best

  • Straight fire right here, I didn't know the beat was a Jackson 5 song "Maybe Tomorrow" it was like a 5 second break in the song. Micheal music lives on!

    Ghostface ripped this

  • Man, thats straight up life in the projects.

    Time was rough, but all you needed was family by your side.

  • this song gives me chills

  • dis song is very heartfelt it really came from the heart

  • At the time,The label did authorize Mary J Blige to be on the record as a single, that why Telitha was singing was in the video version instead.

  • were's mary j blige, she must was unavailible

  • this shitt is to deep

    FGK CLASSIC

  • this song is so deep that it makes me cry all the time. some people have it worst than him, and its beautiful that he's not ashamed to share his story.

  • you damm fkg right

  • I just heard her shit and came here to hear the real thing.

    Mary Version much better mane.

    They left the other girl in the background on here and turned her down on the adlibs.

  • Classic

  • dis song make me think..........i likes

  • On tha real, I aint care for this beat...itz to Orchestra sounding for me.

    But tha lyricz iz deep and really tellz a hell of a story...I alwayz thought of Ghost az a quick thinking rhymer, but this joint shows his ability to really connect emotionally...

  • tooooo fuckin much man. can't even express the way this track makes me feel yo. freaaalllzzz a top ten any genre song bro, this is one of the most heart moving songs, just .. i know it's hard to think about, but even just trryyy to imagine how this song makes his mom feel man ..

  • top 10 best modern songs ever, any genre

  • Loved this song it first came out...big ghostface fan

  • I loved this song since fourth grade damn so fuckin real.. this is when hip hop had soul

  • 2ndly, This is Telitha and NOT MJB! Telitha has been on MANY Wu joints. Heads check 36 Chambers, Foreevr, Cuban Linx, Tical, T2, Liquid Swords, Bobby Digi, etc....

  • Tekitha is only in the video because MJB was unavailable for the video, but MJB did the vocals

  • i dont give a fuck who telitha is or give a fuck bout what shitty wu albums she been on, but i know mary j s voice. and thats her. i dont know you probably know somethin the other 10 people who posted the video. or ghostface knew

  • This is tha G.O.D.! 1 of tha illest song EVER from Ghost. And it's REAL and rings true, that's Y I love it so much!

  • i Feel U...
