"To escape familiarity, means that I must face the fear in me, and do something with this greed in me, in order to address this need in me". WoW!

Many announced her as being crazy, only because the media and music industry said so, because she refuse to sell her soul. She walked away from everything and that took soul!!!

Best female rapper of all time, hands down

I remember seeing Nas in an interview nd the interviewer asked him why he thought Lauryn disappeared from the scene for so long, nd he seem to think for a minute then he said, "she refused to sell her soul", nd this was way b4 everybody in the music industry was accused of being down with secret societies

Lauryn Hill didn't go crazy. The music industry just wanted to effectively shut her up. This girl sang what she was about. The industry doesn't want this kind of music to be mainstream.

A strong sister! Nothing BUT the truth!!

Watching in 2024!!❤❤ This song is so deep it still evokes the same emotions and feelings I had so many years ago when I first heard it!!!🔥💙

This song ravages my reality! After one thousand listens, I'm only beginning to move beyond the lulling, melodic, pulsating beat that underlays such truthful and revealing claims of a woman--experienced, knowledgeable, prophetic, and talented beyond comprehension. Lauryn is definitely THE music icon of my generation.

What words can attempt to define this goddess of an artist. Her lyrical skills = Excellent. Her vocal talent = Excellent. Guitar skills = above good. Music Composition skills = Excellent. Originality = A+ Lauryn Hill is the epitome of High Quality entertainer.

Lauryn touches my heart & soul with these songs.

Having a FB discussion on the materialism of my race (I am Black so I am focusing on Black). Someone said that if a person can afford an expensive car then they should buy it and after going back and forth I was lead to this song which said it much better than I tried to. The appearance of success dominates our neighborhoods and it inhibits our ability to achieve TRUE success and financial independence. Cars are pushed but drastically decrease in value very quickly until not only did you pay $10-15k more than the car is worth if you financed it, it is only worth that much or less when you want to trade it in 4 years later. The world is a hustle and most don't get it.

I can hear the spirit of Donny Hathaway!! Thank the most high for this soul music.

LAuryn's music helped me through alot in my youth. Wish she could help me now. Life took her on another journey. Once you know the truth you will do what you have to do to protect your offspring. She took flight in order to fight.

I visit this song everyday

A Queen expressing her pain, her dilemma and her need to escape the Matrix. "Thosewhoknowknows

Lauryn is SOOOOO talented on every dimension of hip hop. Such a well rounded and emotional singer. She'll make you laugh, cry, be sad for what she addresses, and you feel her happiness. And her lyrics are so unbelievably well written and she can rap better than many artists today! What versatility!

Lauryn has this presence that is undeniably real. When she speaks, you know it's the truth. Whether it's her truth or the truth of the world. I've always appreciated that about her. She is sooooo amazing!

This just makes me want to cry. It's sooooo REAL!!!!! I want to scream because the world needs to hear this artistry.

Just came across this track... absolutely lost for words. Ms Hill is above so many levels in this business, hence her reclusiveness. She is definitely our Nina Simone. I love her creativity, her artistry, her realness, her soul, her spirit. I'm waiting patiently for your return to us. Take your time Ms Hill, take your time. blessings

I'm glad we still have real people in this world thanks for not sell out Ms Hill

I think it's safe to canonize Lauryn Hill as a prophetess of our time.

the real artist is back

you have no idea how much I love this song. 💜

I miss all these old school summer jams

Lauryn Hill Is My Generations Curtis Mayfield Making Funky Music With A Message

She was one of a kind in her day 💕💛💓💗💖❤💕💛💓💗💖❤💕

The reality of it all is to recognize the world system you are being hustle by? Then This awesome composition make so much sense.

I currently have this song on repeat. With visuals in my head as I listen to the words. I thank TMH for this woman. She help open my eyes (third eye included) to what's really going on in this messed up world. Awakening is the best thing to ever happen to me.

those who have ears let them HEAR!

I love Lauren Hill. Her messages are so strong and full of wisdom. I pray Gods protection over her from the real vampires of this world. May she be covered with divine protection from the crown of her head to the bottoms of her feet. We are waiting Lauren for whatever message you have for us. God bless you and your family;-)

This is the best music ever!

My New Favorite song. Grammy worthy!!! (Like them all) thank you love

Ms Hill is OUR...PAC my girl a living Mutha Fucken Legend... Salute tha GOD

Not nas... Ms. Hill is our MARVIN.

I can literally FEEL her pain so deeply I feel it deep in my throat and I wanna cry..

I Never though Lauryn was crazy.. Ever 💜 🔥🔥

The Spirit of a Prophet is with us (Ms. Hill). Lyrically, musically, spiritually, this aint jus music, it's the call to the Hebrew Nation...Wake from your sleep and put on the T(h)ora, the True Instructions of our Mighty One, Yahua, Our Father. These Bones, the Whole House of Ysrael will live Ezek 37. Amen.

blessed be the name of god: 1 thessalonians 5 : concerning the times and the seasons u have no need that i should right to u. u know perfectly well that the day of the lord comes as a thief in the night......5:6 therefore let us not sleep as outhers do but let us watch and be sober..may the lord add a blessing to the readers and hearers of his word...shalom

Ezekiel 33:30-33... ABBA is using Lauryn to help wake the people up. I hear her and I am taking heed. 🙌🏾🙌🏾💞

The depth of this woman is amazing. I only wish god sends me a sister with depth such as Ms. Hill possesses.

The world can know all of this and more if we, The Righteous of God will do our part and live the life Jesus came for us to live. We can make a difference by speaking to one individual at a time and pray that after you've planted that seed that God sends someone to water it so that in turn He himself can cause it to grow! We need each other and we are all joined together through Christ! Let's now live it! Time is winding down; nite is almost over; the day is near and we've not much time!

Lauren...you are deeply loved. Take your time.

chills everywhere...this is village building music! what a beautiful vessel she continues to be for us!

I don't know if this is from the sound quality of this post, or the way this track was recorded, but this has such a beautiful vinyl-like dirty quality to it. It feels very 70's and raw. This is some great music.

the best part was when she said I must praise the gods of industry oh for the oppurtunity or i display such loyalty oh for the way they exploit me She is one of the realest people ever. This is prolly why she left the game. She couldnt take all the phony ass people in the business. GET EM LAURYN!

lauryn hill still rock u haven't lost it keep ur faith strong n alive n trust in God his ur true companion he won't abandon u if u call on him go on doing ur thing mad respect to Hill

Of the world spun by evil men with lies, yeah Only programmed to agree with what we see before our eyes, yeah Running after status quo on a television show Just a picture perfect life, It's the only life we know In this uncomfortable reality Got me chasing, chasing fallacy And the pace, the pace is killing me But I so willingly practice it Just like it's my friend When the whole world is a hustle Exactly where did we arrive in this manufactured life? Sell my soul just to survive. In a game of numbers, I... Must thank the gods of industry oh for the opportunity Or I display such loyalty, yes, oh for the way they exploit me Oh to consider life outside of this Just like a splinter in my mind persists But the ministry of fear exists Only to keep me from knowing the truth Stealing my youth When the whole world is a hustle (To) escape familiarity oh means that I must face the fear in me Oh and do something with this greed in me in order to address this need in me Oh but I must confess the pride I keep. Protect it as if it's my friend Oh when will it end? When the whole world is a hustle To consider life outside of this Just like a splinter in my mind persists But the ministry of fear exists Only to keep me from knowing the truth And it's my excuse When the whole of the world is a hustle, yes Oh when it is, oh when it is , yes! And I'm... And I'm escaped, Yes! And I'm escaped! Oh to escape this mere analogy means that I must face the fear in me Oh and do something with this greed in me in order to address this need in me Oh but I must confess the pride I keep, and protect it as if it's my friend, friend, friend, friend Until the bitter end When the whole of the world is a hustle, yeah Oh when the whole of the world... Everybody's got it going on. Yeah right! Yeah right! Everybody's so damn strong. Yeah right! Yeah right! Yeah right! When the whole of the world is a hustle, hustle A hustle, a hustle! A hustle, a hustle! A hustle I must exercise my faith cause faith is a muscle When the whole of the world, yes, is a hustle, yeah Is a hustle, yeah Is a hustle, ooh Ooh it is Ooh ooh yeah yeah yeah

i love her so much.

Yah bless you Lauryn bless

We been trying to wake people up for tears with this song..
