How could you leave us
Listening to this song got me all emotional. The artiste of this song always expresses deep passion in all his songs, but this particular track was just something else. The track "How could you leave us?" is a song that was written and sang by an artiste that goes by the name NF. It was released in the year 2016 under the album Therapy Session.

The song was directed to his late mother, who died of an overdose of narcotics. He expresses deep anger to his mom through the lyrics of this song. His mom was so addicted to drugs that it felt like she chose them over him and the rest of his siblings. His pain that is being expressed in this song paints a mental picture of what he went through in your mind, which is a very terrible picture.
Seeing a parent live such a lifestyle in the presence of her kids who are still tender must be a very horrible experience, especially if the kids are being looked after by a single parent. He narrated how she missed his graduation among other things because she was too taken away under the influence of drugs. Her attitude made him doubt her love for him.
He lashes out bitterly at the mom, blaming her for the psychological effects she caused him for having to go through those ugly experiences at a very young age. He was really hurt for having to lose his mom when she was still at the prime of her life just because she gave herself to drugs.
He vowed never to forgive her for making him pass through such a phase in his life. What broke my heart the most was when he began to cry towards the end of the song. Most rappers express toughness and radicalness in their songs, but this guy broke down in tears. You could literally hear him sobbing.
That is to show how heartbroken he was. I got a little bit teary the first few times I listened to this part. We all may not have perfect parents, but not having a parent that is into drug abuse is something we should consider ourselves lucky about. This is a very nice song to listen to.
