Iām starting to think Ren is just a hallucination from our collective consciousnessā¦. How the heck can this guy keep making songs that resonate so profoundly? Heās amazing. I almost feel guilty I didnāt discover him until Hi Ren but Iām so glad we all know about him now. Genuine talent, a capacity to hit right to the heart of the issue with subtlety.
Also how the F has Ren got less than 1M subs?

Ren is without doubt the most original and important artist (and I mean that in every sense of the word!) in music today. As a composer/producer and University lecturer in music I have introduced both colleagues and students to his work. Not one has failed to be completely blown away by his music, talent and artistry. Thank you so much. I wish you peace, happiness and most importantly at this point in your life, good health (both mentally and physically).

Ren...if you read this, I want you to understand the impact you are having not just in the musical realm (which is barrier breaking and HUGE) but also on a human level. Your music is reaching and touching so many lives. I am a 39 year old metalhead and I have sobbed like a child listening to your music. Your ability to reach inside and communicate raw emotion so beautifully is a gift. This song brings me back to myself as a teenager, inside that tomb in my head. Thankfully, I was not successful. I now have a thriving, beautiful 16 year old son...there is so much love and wonder in this world. We just have to hang on and wait for the light to shine again. Thank you Ren and Chinchilla, for this moving masterpiece ā¤ļø

Ren created his own genre and every song hits deeper and different than ANYTHING I've ever heard. And im a passionate music lover for over 40 years. This is the first time i really consider myself a real fan and there are thousands who feel the same. Ren's an amazing director, producer, composer, songwriter, singer, multiinstrumentalist, actor and master of all genres. And don't forget that he does all of this by himself and the help of a few good friends without a huge budget. I think he's comparable to Shakespeare, Mozart or Beethoven. He's one of the greatest of all time and they'll talk about him long after he's gone. To witness something like that is a once in a century event.

Lyrics:
[Verse 1: Ren]
I don't feel safe in this bed
There are voices in my head
I've been talking toā
theā
dead
And the fearā
baptised me
My kingdom turned to dust
Andā
I watched all my riches rust
Have I lost the Midas' touch?
Or do sad eyes blind me?
[Chorus: both]
Over and over we go
Over the hills and the valleys below
Oh, and it follows me, follows me home
And it suffocates me, hmmm
[Post-Chorus: both]
Oh, I can't breathe
I said oh, I can't breathe
All I know is I forgot how to be me
[Verse 2: Ren, both]
I don't feel safe in these halls
There are bruises on the walls
There are bodies in the floors
And they breathe so loudly
I wish I could move
Get up and walk right out this tomb
Do our saviours die too soon?
For my sins surround me
[Chorus: Ren, Chinchilla, both]
Over and over we go
(Over and over we go)
Over the hills and the valleys below
(Over the hills and the valleys below)
Oh, and it follows me, follows me home
(Follows me, follows me)
And it suffocates me, hmmm
[Post-Chorus: both, Chinchilla]
Oh, I can't breathe
I said oh, I can't breathe
All I know is I forgot how to be me
Hallelujah
Where is my god, where are you?
Hallelujah
Nothing is pulling me through
Hallelujah
When I don't know how to be
Hallelujah
I forgot how to be me
[Outro: Ren]
When he gave up the fight
A quick decision late in the night
That stayed with me for all of my life
I miss you so

The last 30 seconds of this song affected me on a visceral level. My brother committed suicide 5 years ago at age 30. You sang what I feel every day and what I will feel for the rest of my life.
I immediately sobbed my eyes out starting at 4:06. But it was cleansing. Thank you for this. I feel... understood.
Idk if you'll see this, Ren, but if you do I just want you to know I'm so grateful for this song.
