Music video

Directed by Reid Long, the video features a young boy. It begins with him waking up in the dead of night noticing his mom showing his grandmother the bills. The next day seems to go as normal for the boy but takes a drastic turn when older boys try to steal his backpack and beat him up. A policewoman comes by and picks him up, buys him an icee, then takes him home. That night, he and his sister devise a plan to surprise their mother. They decorate the living room into a starry night. Their mom come home from work and is very shocked and blessed that her kids did so.
Between these scenes, shots of Brown performing the song while sitting on the boy's living room couch are interspersed.
