    This is why I fell in love with Future. He was the one artist that really made by pay attention and realize there's something more in a lot of songs, something that Rap Genius can't pick up on. Hardly was the song that made me understand Future.

    Wash the molly down with champagne
    Wash the xanny down with syrup, yeah
    Hope it take away all this d--- pain
    Hope it take away all this d--- pain


    Hardly, hardly, hardly, hardly, hardly, hardly
    Hardly, hardly, hardly, hardly, forget anything


    After that I listened to Monster and realized it was laced with depression from Codeine addiction, lost love, etc. It presented Future so deep in drug addiction and sadness and it took me and a lot of other people so long to notice. Really good stuff and changed the way I listen to Future and music really.

    Drownin' in Actavis, suicide
    I'm an addict and I can't even hide it

    4. March Madness



    Where do I start with this song? This is the best song off of 56 Nights and one of Future's best songs to date. It is a blessing to have as a fan. March Madness is an anthem, it's compelling, and it is empowering. I hate that I am even putting this at number four because this is one of the best rap songs ever. The spacey production coming from Tarentino is amazing, especially since according to Tarentino himself, made the track in 20 minutes.

    March Madness is not just another big Future hit. There is a social message behind it. Police brutality has been one of the hot topics in the past few years and Future touched on that subject with this song. It's been played at a Bernie Sanders rally as they talked about the issues this song touches on, some have even came out to say that it is the new Black National Anthem.

    Over the hook, Future menacingly spits out, "These f---in' police can't touch me/These bogus police can't touch me," as his way of saying that he is going to keep moving no matter the circumstance. Although he goes on to rap about his way of life, it all comes back to that line again. From, "All these cops shooting n----s, tragic," to right then saying, "I'm the one thats living lavish," it is clear cut that even though he is living life how he wants, he is still affected by those who have been killed and the many senseless killings and brutality we have all seen here in America.

    i was just clarifying that the frowny face is included :emoji_slight_frown:

    write up was dope, you nailed what a lot of people miss about the song -- that the parts about celebration and "livin lavish" are to spite the hurdles he faces, and not without him recognizing what others are going through

    Well, Narsh guessed the rest of my list so here are the final three.

    3. News or Smthn



    I am putting this at three on my own personal list but this is probably the best song Future has ever made. The only negative thing to say about News Or Smthn is that it was never put on a project, it was just a track Future let loose for us, and thank god he did.

    Future has a singular perspective on what goes on around him. He depicts where he is from in such a compelling way, "It's a full moon in the middle of the day." He takes aim at what I would assume would be Ciara with, "Hope you didn't do it to yourself, that's tragic/Hope you didn't throw away what we established," and then giving his fatherly advice, "Hope you wouldn't turn your back on your family/The way a n----- look 'round here, they'll back stab you/Word from your motherfucking brother, young n-----/I just wanna see you happy, I just wanna see you happy."

    News is somewhat of a tribute to all the people he knows who never made it out the streets. It's evident with lyrics like, "Know a few real ones ain’t gon’ see they next birthday," he acknowledges them and knows that they will never turn on him, "The police wanna talk, but we won't say nothing
    True to these clips, n----s won't say nothing
    ."

    2. Codeine Crazy



    The anthem to lean abusers. I don't even need drugs now, all I have to do is listen to this. This is Future's cry for help. Codeine Crazy isn't hard hitting but still has a sense of edge to it. The first line of the first verse sets the tone for this song, "Take all my problems and drink out the bottle and f--- on a model," he feels just like the average person who uses all the luxuries of his life to mask away his pain. Codeine Crazy also has some lines that are aimed at the famous breakup between him and Ciara, "Too many days gone by/Sittin' by the phone waitin til I reply/Drying my eyes, believe it or not/I could never see a tear fallin/Water drippin off of me like a faucet," the media portrayed Future not giving a f--- about their relationship. Right after that, he then goes onto rap, "I just took a b---- to eat at Chipotle/Spent another 60 thousand on a Rollie," yet another example of the choices he makes in order to distract himself from the pain he is holding.

    The third verse is where the most raw and emotional lines come from. He raps, "f--- the fame, I'm sippin lean when I'm driving," and then, "I'm an addict and I can't even hide it." These two lines are what sum up Codeine Crazy. He can't go a day without his lean and would rather die than live without it.

    Codeine Crazy is Future's most sincere and genuine song yet.

    1. My Savages



    Honestly, you could argue that numbers 4-2 are all better than My Savages, and I wouldn't disagree. There is just something about this song that makes me want to put it as my number one. The eerie production, Future's voice cracking as he raps about losing friends, it's all great.

    He dedicates this song to the lost ones. While trying to figure out some of his fall-outs with, he raps, "This a letter for my dogs/How we let the money get between us/How we let these b------s get between us/How we let these n----s get between us," and "The fame is doing a lot of damage to my friendships."

    Yet again, we get some lines directed towards Ciara, "No she’ll never meet another n----- not another n----- like me/Even if he got a billion dollars he can’t make her c-m like me," and the downplay of the significance of Russell Wilson in Ciara's life (f--- Celibate Russ).

    Throw Away could be argued for a top 10 spot. Interchangeable from 10-7.
