Dear Tom MacD, I just got introduced to your lyrical, prophetic art less than a year ago and you're my favorite artist EVER. Your music speaks to my soul, treats my wounds, and makes me know I'm not the only one who sees, understands and feels what I feel. You speak so much truth it's unbelievable. Bought all three autographed discs from HOG and looking forward to buying some apparel. I'll rep your music hard bro. Keep being you, or whatever you want to be, I'll respect it. Much love brother. 💯
Dear Stan! Jk with ya!!! I just got turned onto him too, he's pretty awesome!!!
@@mpayne8206 LOL 😂....I swear I had forgotten about this comment but he's still my favorite to this day when it comes to current rappers. I love when he tops the billboard over Cardi BS and all the other garbage up there. 💯
Wow Tom, never been drawn to an artist like I'm drawn to you. Since being turned on to your music it's all I've listened to. I know I'm not alone in my despair or joy, in my disgust of politics or fear of what's to come in this nation. Your eyes and soul see and say everything i feel. You and Nova are amazing. Keep spitting the truth. H.O.G. forever. I'll always be here for ya. If u ever come to Reno Hit me up. I'll be in the audience. Love u guys
@@jennifergiles914 Seriously though he's like a hidden GEM among all the bs music floating around. He's on point with all his lyrics and spits it REAL. 💯💪🏼 #HOG4LIFE
Tom didn't even know how relevant this song would be in 2020.
That's why I'm here reading these comments... wanted to see if anyone else sees how ominous and spot on have almost all his lyrics been, now more than ever.
You're a bright and sobering voice of reality these days Tom, you're needed and loved
No bulshit this is exactly what the world needs to hear we need to come together and be one f*** the system let's make our own
Think how much passion Tom's girlfriend has to write all these songs
@@jesselangeland7933 nova, toms gf, is the artist behind writing these lyrics?!?! [Love that woman more, than before, now] Thought she just did the video editing lolz
WTF? West was "won" after 2nd world War... Just eat the fruits now...
Tom you and Nova are truly a POWER COUPLE...you put your heart and soul in your music and I love your heart. Stay they way you are and keep doing what you are doing.
One of my favorite Tom Macdonald songs!💔
😢😢😢😢
Your music NEEDS to be heard in EVERY HOUSEHOLD. Your music NEEDS to be heard MORE!!!!!
This song means even more now that i know what you were going through when you filmed it. Glad you're sober, i cant wait to be where youre at mentally. I was on your live tonight and left a million comments. You speak to my soul Tom.
This song has so much more meaning today in 2020...
𝚈𝚎𝚜 🤘🏻
Why am i just seeing this? Tom is truly the goat..
I feel like an asshole that it took a diss track for me to go down the Tom MacDonald rabbit hole and learn how fucking heartfelt and real you were......
Shiloh Store sameeeee
Sad for both of us
Thomas what a rush this rollercoaster ride of emotional ups and downs is so epic Metis Gal, Alberta Canada. 8 years of Music and love pouring into the hearts WHO see and seek love you and respect beyond words can Express ❤🇨🇦❤
That moment you go back to Tom's roots and remember although different compared to his modern tracks the message is still there. Keep it up the world needs the truth!
Feel like saying he's talented is insulting. unbelievable, unique & actually something to say
Perfect song for 2020/2021...one of my favorite songs by Tom
So so powerful. His voice is SOOOO beautiful
As part of the generation that remembers where there was none and witnessed the towers on tv from class and watched the world change in front of me this is deep... Sorry i slept on ya Tom McDonald but im here now
Kline Family same here!
Yup I was in 11th grade at gulfport high school watching channel 1 n saw it go down.
I’m so in love with you both!!!!
I still remember it like it was yesterday.... Sophomore year in Home Ec class....One of the scariest things I witnessed in my life.
I was close enough to hear them come down, to many have forgotten
Tom kills it on every track. Most slept on rapper alive. Keep grinding, man. Your music helps so many of us get through the day and strive for better.
💯❤🔥
So many of us have been kept from awareness of the masterful TM & the messages He's been tryin to share on this demonicly designed n controlled black mirror against it's masters desires. But nothing can stop what is coming and now the Patriots of Q's digital army are ariving. As you may have heard about us... Where we go 1 we don't go some. We don't fear the coming storm. We are World Wide and WE ARE THE STORM. WWOWGAWW
I agree every time I’m feeling down I trough a couple of his tracks on and I forget why I was even upset
Oh for God's sakes, wake up people. Listen. He's talking about us being brought down.
How the west was won is some deep shit
Or it’s a false narrative that has manipulated and scrambled your brain.
If you think more about it,we design run and comply to the current system without any real fight,not a real fight,just a lets go online and act like activist but not do anything fight, we arent being brought down anymore,weve bought into and fed into the system for so long,we hold ourselves down,the west was won long before we entered the arena sadly
@J B are u on some major drugs? U have no idea ALL the reasons we listened then and now. Ur nothing but a miserable person. First of all this song u have to listen to deeply. And it's not twisted into a diff narrative at all. We had shit going on then such as in Boston. Now we have crooked politicians, blm and antifa that are also traitors to the US. So there for we DON'T agree with there movement period. Can u say 'to radical.' So just wisp urself on out fluttering in like u know us all. Damn SNOWFLAKES
@J B You dont agree because you can't make a leather purse out of a sow's ear. Stay off this channel if you don't like it. I'm sure there are some liberal channels that will enjoy your negativity!
Wow...how this doesn't have millions of views is beyond me. Powerful beyond description. Thank you for saying something.
Timeless music with conscious message. ART.
[Verse 1]
I woke up last night in the living room
Left the TV on, fell asleep to the news
I've become numb to the violence, I cannot hear no more cryin'
Or sirens or stories 'bout Paris or terrorist threats to the country where I live
Buncha politicians steady lying on the TV still
Buncha young mo'fuckers fightin' with the police and the police kill
Buncha students gettin' killed in an air strike, no one even care like
I wonder if they taught 'em that they'd never win a fair fight
[Pre-Chorus]
Huh, how the west was won
How the west was won
How the west was won
How the west was won
[Chorus]
Oh, when the lights go out, maybe then we'll see
When the lights go out, maybe that's what we need
When the lights go out and the job gets done
Maybe that will be-be, be, be how the west was won
[Verse 2]
Had a drink last night while the city burned
That I been to twice, but it didn't hurt
The images didn't seem real, I'm too far to feel
The fear and the anger and hatred and no one that I know got killed, I sat there and chilled
Too many pictures of people that died way too young
Too many bombings for me to keep up with, remember when there was none
Too many dead for my tears, too many lost for my love
Too many cry for my ears, how the west was won
[Pre-Chorus]
How the west was won
How the west was won
How the west was won
How the west was won
[Bridge]
I woke up last night in the living room
Left the TV on, fell asleep to the new new news
I've become numb to the violence, I cannot hear no more cryin'
Or sirens or stories 'bout Paris or terrorist threats to the country where I live
[Chorus]
When the lights go out, maybe then we'll see
When the lights go out, maybe that's what we need
When the lights go out and the job gets done
Maybe that will be be be be how the west was won
Thank you 🙇♂️
Thank you
Tom Please redo this song,.... Its so relevant...!!
I second this.
YESSSS thank you for releasing this old stuff.
Tom is legendary!
This has to be one of, if not his most underrated song ever
My hope is that hearts will turn around enough...to write a sequel to this called "How the West was ONE!"
As God as witness I'm going keep mentioning this 🎶 & tell others to react to it etc until it comes back round!🔥🔥♥️
My heart is with you and every masterpiece you share with the world, this is a painful reminder of how our society is plagued by violence and it's our right as humans to change it for the better, for our future and for our youth. This gave me goose bumps, beautiful Tom! You are a true genius!
And this has been every nation from the beginning what will you change it to?
Nazyair sengikar Will it’s never been this mad. Never l lived a long time. And we never had this in are country. Only like 2 bad thing would happen a year maybe. So your wrong son.
@@cincoy3679 If you are referring to mass shootings only a few bad ones happen a year. They now classify a mass shooting as any shooting where 4 or more people are injured or killed. So by that metric the 70s, 80s, and 90s were full of them. Arguably more so since all of those decades and most of the ones proceeding them were much more violent than the 2000s and 2010s have been.
@@cincoy3679 How do you feel about these things now?
Is it still happyhappyjoyjoy?
Unless you're talking about some other country than US... this song has been almost prophetic.
The world needs this much realness and positive msgs in music now more than ever
I Know looking through the comments this song is either hated or loved. After finding you about a year or 2 ago I've tried to find all your work that you've made. This for what ever reason and past the message your delivering is one of my favorite. I can literally lay in bed with this song on repeat for hours man. Keep doing you. Your an amazing artist bro.
Tom this is Absolutely Beautiful man🙏 you convert energy of pain into healing. Even a rose grows in dirt, your message is the rose 🙏
One of your best. Can't get this out of my head.
Your one of a few rappers who actual tell how everything really is. You don’t sugarcoat anything.
Yeah
Super refreshing
He speaks truth and is a great rapper
Absolutely love how everything you put out is completely different from the one before or after. Don’t ever let let anyone push you away from what you’re doing. We need these messages that you’re delivering.
I recently came upon this song. I am absolutely in love with the words and meanings.
Tom, you've outdone yourself with this and Rolling Stone! You are an excellent actor, your videos are like tuning into a movie for real. Your talent has no end to it. Keep shining on you crazy diamond!!!!
This song has so much pain and happiness

This song deserves more views
Love how Tom stays true to the reality of who actually pulls off these events.

Hey Tom,
This was the first song I ever heard of yours, when it was brand new. If I recall you only had a few thousand subs back then... I knew you would be HUGE one day homie and I spread your sound to everyone I know.
There's a lot of things that don't go right in this world. Seeing you rise to the top and have your voice heard and loved by MILLIONS gives me hope in this world that more things can go right.
God Bless you, Nova, and your entire family.
Masterful
just gotta say i still love and feel the crap out of this beautiful song.
