Hello sick boi Ren. My apologies. I'm really not a prick 'nd I don't mean to offend. In fact i come in peace - as more or less, a friend With that said, you've gone and done it once again. Went off the deep end in your head and inspired me to address my own depression. I think i can safely speak for us weak collectively, when i say that we know how it feels to be self loathing. But as it turns out, in the midst of all your doubts, you'll succeed and one day leave behind that nightmare for your dream. Through the words you sing and the verses that you speak, your destined to achieve some incredible things. Ren, I know this is just another compliment you'll have difficulty believing, but your honesty got me to rethink some things, like the self-medicatin' I've been suffering with since the age of 13.. Your words got me to pick up my chin, put down the pills and pry my lips from the gin. Ill be the first to admit, I cried like a baby that night as I took my last sip. But now with a head so clear, I no longer fear.. when i hear the whispers in my ear that doubt my abilities; when i find myself surrounded by a cloud of misery; when my ship is listing from so many leaks; when i feel as though I'm starting to sink ; when i feel alone, adrift at mercy to the sea; when I'm screaming, but no one is listening; when i fear the waters of life might be too much for me; when i question the presence of a beast roaming beneath, waiting for me to take the leap; I peer into the ether only to see, a reflection of myself looking back at me. It's your encouraging words that remind me to breath, That i should be, at the very least, trying to stand on my own two feet, because anything beats lying helplessly just accepting defeat. So I moved away from the false sense of safety and released, I found myself only submerged to the knee. Constantly worrying, the neverending uncertainty, It was all for nothing. As Ren once said, that's just the way the pendulum swings. I realized then that i can survive only on good memories and a years of therapy. The more quickly we can be accepting of what life brings, the more quickly we can ultimately be set free. Your words helped me, you help "we" the collective weak, to shed these bindings and in their place grow wings. So Ren, if you feel sad again, please just don't forget - I am merely but one of the countless good things you've done. My best regards with utmost sincerety, - written anonymously

Hi there, Ren It's been a little while, did you miss me? You thought you'd buried me, didn't you? Risky... 'Cause I always come back Deep down you know that... Deep down you know I'm always in periphery Ren, aren't you pleased to see me? It's been weeks since we spoke bro, I know you need me You're the sheep, I'm the shepherd, not your place to lead me Not your place to be biting off the hand that feeds me Hi, Ren I've been taking some time to be distant I've been taking some time to be still I've been taking some time to be by myself since my therapist told me I'm ill And I've been making some progress lately And I've learnt some new coping skills So I haven't really needed you much man I think we need to just step back and chill Ren, you sound more insane than I do You think that those doctors are really there to guide you? Been through this a million times Your civilian mind is so perfect at always being lied to Okay, take another pill, boy Drown yourself in the sound of white noise Follow this 10 step program, rejoice! All your problems will be gone! Fucking dumb boy Nah mate, this time it's different man trust me I feel like things might be falling in place And my music's been kinda doing bits too Like I actually might do something great And when I'm gone maybe I'll be remembered For doing something special with myself That's why I don't think that we should talk, man 'Cause when you're with me it never seems to help You think that you can amputate me? I am you, you are me, you are I, I am we We are one, split in two that makes one so you see You got to kill you if you wanna kill me I'm not left over dinner, I'm not scraps on the side Oh your music is thriving? Delusional guy! Where's your top ten hit? Where's your interview with Oprah? Where are your Grammys, Ren? Nowhere! Yeah but, my music's not commercial like that I never chased numbers, statistics or stats I never write hooks for the radio They never even play me, so why would I concern myself with that? But my music is really connecting And the people who find it respect it And for me that's enough 'cause this life's been tough So it gives me a purpose I can rest in Man, you sound so pretentious! Ren, your music is so self-centered No one wants to hear another song about how much you hate yourself, trust me You should be so lucky Having me inside you to guide you Remind you to manage expectations, provide you Perspective, that thing you neglected, I get it You wanna be a big deal... Next Jimi Hendrix? Forget it Man, it's not like that Man, it's just like that I'm inside you, you twat Nah, it's not, man, you're wrong, when I write I belong Let me break the fourth wall by acknowledging this song Ren sits down Has a stroke of genius He wants to write a song that was not done previous A battle with his subconscious... Eminem did it Played on guitar Plan B did it Man, you're not original, you criminal Rip off artist, the pinnacle of your success is stealing other people's material Ren, mate, we've heard it all before Ohh "she sells sea shells on the sea shore" Fuck you, I don't need you, I don't need to hear this 'Cause I'm fine by myself, I'm a genius! And I will be great, and I will make waves And I'll shake up the whole world beneath us That's right, speak your truth Your fucking god complex leaks out of you It's refreshing to actually hear you say it! Instead of down play it... "Oh, music is all about the creative process and if people can find something to relate to within that then that's just a bonus" Fuck you, Ima fucking kill you, Ren Well, fucking kill me then Let's fucking have you, Ren Ima do it, watch me prove it, who are you to doubt my music? 'Cause I call the shots I choose if you die Yeah, I call the shots and so I who choose who survives I'll tie you up in knots then I'll lock you inside News flash... I was created at the dawn of creation I am temptation I am the snake in Eden I am the reason for treason Beheading all Kings I am sin with no rhyme or reason Sun of the morning, Lucifer Antichrist, father of lies Mephistopheles Truth in a blender Deceitful pretender The banished avenger The righteous surrender When standing in front of my solar eclipse My name it is stitched to your lips so you see I won't bow to the will of a mortal, feeble and normal You wanna kill me? I'm eternal, immortal I live in every decision That catalyzed chaos that causes division I live inside death, the beginning of ends I am you, you are me, I am you, Ren Hi Ren... I've been taking some time to be distant I've been taking some time to be still I've been taking some time to be by myself and I've spent half my life ill But just as sure as the tide starts turning Just as sure as the night has dawn Just as sure as the rain fall soon runs dry when you stand in the eye of the storm I was made to be tested and twisted I was made to be broken and beat I was made by his hand, it's all part of his plan that I stand on my own two feet And you know me, my will is eternal And you know me, you've met me before Face to face with a beast I will rise from the east and I'll settle on the ocean floor And I go by many names also Some people know me as hope Some people know me as the voice that you hear when you loosen the noose on the rope And you know how I know that I'll prosper? 'Cause I stand here beside you today I have stood in the flames that cremated my brain And I didn't once flinch or shake So cower at the man I've become When I sing from the top of my lungs That I won't retire, I'll stand in your fire, inspire the meek to be strong And when I am gone I will rise In the music that I left behind Ferocious persistent, immortal like you We're a coin with two different sides

What a wonderful contribution to our collective Ren experience!! Thank you for sharing. 😊 I wouldn't miss this opportunity to share how amazing it would be for you to work your magic on the latest Money Game 3. To be able to hear those strings as perfect as they are, would mean the world to me and I'm sure a lot of fans that seek out every nuanced ounce of Ren's beautiful catalog. 🦋🤗🌻

You've been through this a million times Your civilian mind is so perfect at always being lied to Okay, take another pill boy Drown yourself in the sound of white noise Follow this ten-step program, rejoice All your problems will be gone! Fuckin' dumb boy Nah, mate, this time it's different, man, trust me I feel like things might be falling in place And my music's been kinda doing bits too Like I actually might do something great And when I'm gone, maybe I'll be remembered For doing something special with myself That's why I don't think that we should talk, man 'Cause when you're with me, it never seems to help You think that you can amputate me? I am you, you are me, you are I, I am we We are one, split in two that makes one, so you see You got to kill you if you wanna kill me I'm not left over dinner, I'm not scraps on the side Oh, your music is thriving? Delusional guy Where's your top ten hit? Where's your interview with Oprah? Where are your Grammies, Ren? Nowhere! Yeah but, my music's not commercial like that I never chased numbers, statistics or stats I never write hooks for the radio, they never even play me So why would I concern myself with that? But my music is really connecting And the people who find it, respect it And for me, that's enough 'cause this life's been tough So it gives me a purpose I can rest in Man, you sound so pretentious Ren, your music is so self-centred No one wants to hear another song about How much you hate yourself, trust me You should be so lucky, having me inside you to guide you Remind you to manage expectations Provide you perspective, that thing you neglected, I get it You wanna be a big deal, next Jimi Hendrix? Forget it Man, it's not like that Man it's just like that, I'm inside you, you twat No, it's not man, you're wrong, when I write, I belong Let me break the fourth wall by acknowledging this song Ren sits down, has a stroke of genius He wants to write a song that was not done previous A battle with his subconscious, Eminem did it Played on guitar, Plan B did it Man, you're not original, you criminal, rip-off artist The pinnacle of your success is stealing other people's material Ren, mate, we've heard it all before Uh, "she sells seashells on the sea shore" Fuck you, I don't need you, I don't need to hear this 'Cause I'm fine by myself, I'ma genius And I will be great, and I will make waves And I'll shake up the whole world beneath us That's right, speak your truth, your fuckin' God complex leaks out of you It's refreshing to actually hear you say it instead of downplay it "Ugh, music Is all about the creative process and if people can find Something to relate to within that, then that's just a bonus" Fuck you, I'ma fuckin' kill you, Ren Well fuckin' kill me then, let's fuckin' have you Ren I'm a do it, watch me prove it, who are you to doubt my music? 'Cause I call the shots. I choose if you die Yeah, I call the shots, and so I who choose who survives I'll tie you up in knots when I'll lock you inside News flash I was created at the dawn of creation I am temptation, I am the snake in Eden I am the reason for treason, beheading all Kings I am sin with no rhyme or reason Sun of the morning, Lucifer, antichrist Father of lies, Mestophilies Truth in a blender, deceitful pretender The banished avenger, the righteous surrender When standing in-front of my solar eclipse My name it is stitched to your lips, so, you see I won't bow to the will of a mortal, feeble and normal You wanna kill me? I'm enteral, immortal I live in every decision that catalysed chaos That causes division I live inside death, the beginning of ends I am you, you are me, I am you, Ren Hi Ren, I've been taking some time to be distant I've been taking some time to be still I've been taking some time to be by myself And I've spent half my life ill But just as sure as the tide starts turning Just as sure as the night has dawn Just as sure as rainfall soon runs dry When you stand in an eye of the storm I was made to be tested and twisted I was made to be broken and beat I was made by His hand, it's all part of His plan That I stand on my own two feet And you know me, my will is eternal And you know me, you've met me before Face to with a beast, I will rise from the east And I'll settle on the ocean floor And I go by many names also Some people know me as "hope" Some people know me as the voice that you hear When you loosen the noose on the rope And you know how I know how I know that I'll prosper? 'Cause I stand here beside you today I have stood in the flames that cremated my brain And I didn't once flinch or shake So cower at the man I've become, when I sing from the top of my lungs That I won't retire, I'll stand in your fire, inspire the weak to be strong And when I am gone, I will rise, in the music that I left behind Ferocious persistent, immortal like you, we're a coin with two different sides
