Church. My mama passed on August 4th. She was in Vanderbilt for a few weeks before she came home with me. One day during her hospital stay, the therapists was helping her and it was painful. They told her to think of her favorite singers. She talked about you. One of her therapists was a fan also so her and him cut up and talked about you, and talked about how you and I met and your face time call with me. Thank you for bringing joy to her.
Rickey Alexander man I am so sorry for you losing a mother or any family member is so hard keep strong and know a lot of people who don’t even know you will be here to help including me man I am so sorry for your lose may she Rest In Peace
And this summer my house caught on fire and killed our 2 pits and we lost most of everything, it’s only my dad,me,and my brothers, your music is what keeps my small family going each day. Thank you UPCHURCH! Long live the south.
Thank you. Thank you for continuing to show us pieces of your soul through these lyrical masterpieces. Very few are brave enough to bare their thoughts, hopes, fears, and emotions so openly. You not only do so, but do it with such grace that you inspire others to do the same. You are realness personified, and we are all better for the messages you share through your music 💜🎶👀👊✴🔥⭐🎵🎤💯
Hey Upchurch I wanna know the break down of this song, the deeper story behind it on why you wrote it, what your thought process was, and the whole story behind this song. Like if you wanna know see a video to know the deeper story behind this song.
"Takin advice from people who have platinum records with slim shady" is a Reference to him meeting Kid Rock. Kid Rock did a song called Fuck Off with Eminem on the 14 times platinum record "Devil Without a Cause"

I met Ryan this weekend at an offroad park in TN. He was there with a few friends. I think I was the only one who recognized him. I didnt tell everyone who he was so they wouldnt bother him. He wasnt filming, just having a good time. I talked to him in private for a minute and he was really cool to me. He could act like a bigshot but he didn't. I've got a lot of respect for him now. I got him in a video I made. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IzYn7fFnkkM.html

Upchurch, man your music and lyrics are so powerful they get me through the day and this song really helps me get through 2 coworkers I lost that were so close to me in powerline work. One of the best music artists in my book. #RHEC

Chorus: Rizzi Myers & Upchurch] Everyone's time's gonna fade away Dust to dust and Amazing Grace Only thing I'm leaving is my last name Oh, and an empty grave [Verse 1: Upchurch] One day I'll be in a box I ain't talkin' about a grave I'm talkin' 'bout a box of greatest hits I made along the way Found on a dirt road 'cause I ain't never had shit paved And when the roots grow back I'll be a mystery per se No askin' folks in Nashville 'cause I refuse to go and sign Walked in houses of legends that made a impact on your life Takin' advice from people who have platinum records with Slim Shady Went on vacation with country superstars even though I'm crazy And on a psycho social roller coaster, no seat belts doin' loops My mind got a vault like a doomsday preppin' loony toon Stay boucin' off my walls like my house is made of gymnastic mats And I'll be rappin' 'til I'm 90 out of shape with cataracts 'Cause I ain't got to see a rope to cut a trail and make a path I'm 27 and I know this whole city feelin' my wrath Just wait 'til I'm 30 and fine tuned like a Stratocaster I'm not biodegradable still the cleanest white trash and I'm dirt [Chorus: Rizzi Myers & Upchurch] Everyone's time's gonna fade away Dust to dust and Amazing Grace Only thing I'm leaving is my last name Oh, and an empty grave [Verse 2: Upchurch] Most people in denial about the timeline of life The burnin' of a flame one goes out then one goes up and strikes I stepped into the shallow water knowin' one day I'll drown To the noise of screamin' voices and Instagram shutter sounds Right now for me it's just now, startin' to get kinda loud I'm gettin' pointed out in malls from a couple surroundin' crowds People threatin' to jump me and want to show up to my house You're creatin' a crazy person with loaded guns in his house And everyday that passes I'm becomin' more intelligent to social negligence No matter what the cadence is all I see is some adjectives I'm drastically paintin' you cinematic action Mixed with words I scrambled off of every part of the alphabet How gooder can I get I think the game is hibernatin' Or overdosed on manufactured faces and sound waves So won't you put me in that box and put my voice in one that's separate One's a death box the other's gonna be a livin' statement and they know it [Chorus: Rizzi Myers & Upchurch] Everyone's time's gonna fade away Dust to dust and Amazing Grace Only thing I'm leaving is my last name Oh, and an empty grave [Verse 3: Upchurch] Knock knock who's there, it's the end of your career Yeah what's up you motherfucker been waitin' to see you here I've been dyin' to meet you and that's really no pun intended I've met every goal I wanted made the impact for my people And held them southern roots before every song that I made And got invited to show up and attend the CMA'S But my ass never went I went ghost when they called me to that stage 'Cause I don't need people to clap to make me proud of my name To make me proud of my songs, to make me proud of my lyrics I was built out of southern spirit only found in the thicket My bloodline the thickest, fuck all the fame and the riches That shit all fades away but not the voice of a legend who's preachin' And that's why they call me Church, cross my heart hope to die Stick a needle in my eye, and have to do it three times To even almost make me blind, 'cause my third one don't even blink So I see you before you see yourself when you try comin' for me Church
Wow, this brings so many different emotions. Church you amaze me more and more, with each new song, each new album. I have never in my life heard or seen talent like yours. You are an inspiration to me as well as many others, I wish you nothing but continued success and happiness. Much love and respect Church 🖤🌾
This song makes you realize what happens after your gone. All you leave behind is a headstone. Time moves on and you're forgotten about. It makes me realize I don't want to be forgotten, I don't want everything ive done to be wasted. It makes me realize its time for a change. Its time to make a name for myself. Thanks upchurch. #RHEC till I die.
Damn church everything is growing fast and I'm glad to be apart I'm going to pre order supernatural tomorrow I'm glad to here that your doing good I was thinking about you when you was in the hospital that worried me because you are such an amazing person and you really care about your fans and I appreciate that cause there's nobody else out there like you you are continuously raising the bar for the competition I met you in Florence SC and we talked for a min and you signed my hat jacket and my friend's wallet and that is a memory that I will keep and whenever you are close enough to Greenville to drive to I'ma be there you are the only person I listen to because I understand what your singing/rapping about and you put so much passion in it and you rap about what's true in life and not just something to make a song about and that's amazing because people just write words that rhyme just to make a song but you write about how you grew up and what happened then and now and that's unique thank you church for all ur music and kindness that you are showing and I hope to see you at ur next show close to Greenville soon
Dang Okie I didn't know y'all Britain's liked upchurch but I mean I ain't hateing.... I live down in South eastern part of the US Soo you know everyone hear like upchruch lol #RHEC
I lost my fiancee to cancer 2 months after my first comment on this song. I get it now more than ever!! Thanks Skin for all the work you put in. Its priceless to a lost soul.
⛪ good lord sir this spoke to my soul in a very unique way that nobody but you can deliver! Your music speaks volumes and it comes from your heart from a special place. You're a music legend in the making bro! Been a fan since your early day youtube video's. Keep it up church your doing a great job man 💯 #RHEC
Upchurch my son was 30 years old when he had a really bad motorcycle wreck on May 4 2021...A illegal immigrant pulled out in front of him...He was air vac to the hospital in a coma..Head injury...He never regained consciousness and he passed on August 15 2021...He was our only son..But what I really wanted to say was he listen to you all the time...Matter of fact he was listening to your music when he had the wreck...We played your music at his funeral...I just wanted you to know that he really loved your music...Thank you from our family...
U Dam!!! Right!!! This King knows who he is!??? I paved That road!!?? U already know! I'm the Man!?? Try me if u want!?? Be my pleasure!?? I love handing out As whipping's ask around!???😂
The wise have told me that the Bible says not to worship False Gods. And that’s what the industry is full of. Every single one of them. Church isn’t a false God or any “God” of that matter. Every famous person thinks they are of a higher power. Not Church. He’s a person. A human being like all of us. That comes from a place where no one really makes it out of the common patterns. He lives in the sound waves and tells a story and helps his fans, like me, make it through life. Thanks Church for doing the unthinkable. Much love comin from a real one 👍🏼
I've been listening to your music for the past two years now and I just lost my dad 10 days ago. It's been really hard but your music helps me get through the day. RHEC love ya church ❤️
I'm sorry for your loss. I definitely can relate.. My best friend committed suicide a few years ago. Then, a couple years ago my younger brother died.. Then, 18 months ago I lost my sister-in-law. Then, a few months ago I lost my older brother & last sibling..😢😔.. To top it all off, I was held captive at gunpoint by an off-duty officer. He pistol whipped me, beat me very badly, picked me up by my hair and continued to punch me. Then, he shoved his pistol down my throat & threatened me not to scream.. then shoved it elsewhere till I bled.. He then proceeded to rape me violently for hours. It's a miracle I got out alive.. But, there are many days I ask why because I lose EVERYONE I love.. My parents just lost the house I grew up in. My Grandmom just died yesterday.. I feel like I'm never allowed to be happy.. My soul is broken..😔😭
So beautiful and inspirational. Hearing this duet with Rizzi Myers gives me goosebumps. When the beat hits I lose myself a bit. Still blasting your tunes up here in Philly.
Love the music you make and all the videos talking bout real life shit. Keep up the good work and don't worry bout the drama and bullshit talkers. They just jealous. Lots of love and blessings!
Damn skin every tune I hear is timeless also relevant to you no matter when it was written or uploaded. Fukin legendary bro as a music junkie your lyrics in every story ….. really enjoy what you take pride in and the reasons why mad respect and keep it real through this tuff shit your ex fam has performed to ya build up Ghost Ranch and keep livin
Absolute killer track!!! I only found out about you 3 days ago (don't hate me, I'm from the UK, we can be a bit slow to catch on sometimes lol) and have literally spent the last 3 days going through all your back catalogue of music, vlogs and roasts! Your vlogs and roasts have had me cracking up, they are hilarious! Radio Jam could easily have been about us growing up in rural Scotland, it was fast becoming my favourite track but then you drop this slice of Heaven! Now I'm gonna have to go look up Rizzi Myers as well, her voice is amazing! Thank you for your music dude, it's a game changer for me!
Church I lost my step dad about 5 years ago and about a two months or so before Rolling Stoned I found your music you sound just like him when you give advice. You make me feel like I have someone I can turn to when times get hard. Your music has really saved me. And I'm not saying that just to say. It's hard when you loose someone who guided you to the person you are today. But you help me with the pain I wanted to see you in concert when you were here in Plainfield Illinois. But I wasn't old enough. But thank you for really caring about your fans church you really are a legend. Remember who you are and RHEC until we die skin.
Chase Hayes I lost my dad 19 years ago and when I first heard church I swear my dad was right by my side rocking out to this bro I know ur feeling skin
I’m going through a lot right now to and your music has been helping a lot I have been supportive for like 2 or 3 years but keep doing thing upchurch 💯
Killing it! Get well soon and enjoy your break man, you definitely deserve it. You are the realest guy in the industry. Keep up the great work brother, stay safe, and get back down to mobile al. Saw you back in feb but looking forward to many more!
A co-worker turned me on to you 3-4 years ago. I love your music and vibe. I am not a country music fan but I dig your country music. I shocked my wife (28 years together in September) will listening to your country music. Keep on truckin' 🤘🤙
Hey man, ive been listening since your sail cover and rhec when you first started. You havent changed much and its awesome. Your songs relate to alot of us and make days easyer. Keep being real.
Ive been going through rough shit to, 12 yo with depression and anxiety, wanting to move away from my mom, still grieving from families deaths and shit like that
Church, this song is amazing. It has a way of speaking to me because I am going through a real rough time right now. I just want to say thanks man. You are the greatest man. Don’t ever stop what you do.
Thanks for being a brother and friend this made me cry i lost my wife of 22 years. Actually BoB put her in 2 of his videos. (Forever) & (AmericaN BADASS). She had a heart attack jogging age 42 while Listen to this i feel to my kness crying your brother from DETROIT MICHAEL (RHEC)
Man this beat is ill! What a heart wrench, pullin at my heart strings. My bro has a past, locked up but you remind me so much of him. He can rap, freestyle on ANY beat and sing. Sad how some times define our past, completely obliterating our future. So proud of your self worth and company that you keep. Outlaws or not, fam is fam. Stay true and stay you! 🙏 love from Tx
This is deep - "most people in denial about the timeline of life." An artist who has matured to such a complex level - I love watching church evolve as an artist.
