I never thought I would have 2 sons with autism I never thought I’d end up being a single mum and a 9 year relationship would end I never thought I would be so far away from family and lose all my friends I never knew loneliness could be this agonising But shit happens, keep it moving. You learn to adapt to the reality that is so different to what you envisioned. Thank you for this message H.E.R ❤️
May God bless you in everyway possible my love i have so much love and respect for you because i too have a special needs child and God only give special ppl the job of taking care of them so you are a special women believe that after every storm there's a RAINBOW!! 🌈🙏😇🙌
Am so with you Tricey. After 27 years together and losing 2 birth children to a genetic condition (my ex husband was a carrier but we didn't find out until after our children died) we adopted 2 girls and when they were 10 and 11 I discovered my ex had been carrying on with someone at work so I kicked him out. Girls fell apart, were diagnosed with autism at 15 &16 and they deteriorated hugely with SS blaming my parenting. Now aged 18 & 19 they are both under section in two seperate hospitals with major MH issues inherited from their birth family. Ex has not even seen eldest since May 2015 and only visits youngest occasionally and all their care is left to me alone as I fight to get them help.
I've been so broken up about the fact that 3 kids were on that chopper, including his baby Gianna. But your right. I gotta stop crying over it. It's just so sad when children die.😥
Robert Carter me too Robert... just got off the phone with who feels like the Love of my Life and chose me instead of compromising. Painful and the right decision. Man, I had plans..
"sometimes it don't go your way" that line hit me so hard. It reminds me of "God's ways are better than our ways". So even in the confusion, I know God is with us. His plans are greater than ours 💯❤️✋
Amen 🙏 expanding on this point, this life with all its trials, big highs and big lows and everything else in between stands as a reminder that we were never created for this world but for something greater. Rick Warren quoted in his book Purpose Driven Life, “in order for us from becoming too attached to earth, God allows us to feel a significant amount of discontent and dissatisfaction in life - longings that will never be fulfilled on this side of eternity. We’re not completely happy here because we’re not supposed to be. Earth is not our final home; we were created for something much better.” True contentment, peace, and satisfaction lies not in this world because it was never placed in an imperfect vessel. Only in Jesus those things can be found 💗✨✨ LOVE this song, so human and so real and so relatable
I lost everybody from my grandparents to my older brothers and sister on my mother's side walking this world by yourself no family that really care about you no friends it's hard it's all cross we got to carry it as long as we got God and Jesus and as long as we have that we don't need anyone else we can accomplished anything stand strong in our trials and tribulations. Jesus said count it all joy when you go through these things.
LYRICS Sometimes it don't go your way Sometimes you gotta, Sometimes Sometimes it don't go your way, Sometimes Sometimes, you gotta move on, Yeah I had a plan, I had it mapped out I knew where I was going, when I left out No you couldn't tell me that I wouldn't be there, on time I had some guarantees, I had a deadline But now I know, things change, for better or worse You could say I that I'm the same Aint just I do all the hurt So many No's so many Yes'es Don't wanna blame, don't got the answers I felt the pain, I can't attest it That's just the game and I respect it, Yeah. ‘Cos sometimes shit don't go your way, Sometimes Sometimes you're gon have those days, Yeah And sometimes you feel out of place You can’t promise me it'll be the same ‘Cos sometimes change, Sometimes, Yeah Sometimes change, Yeah I had a day, I had a vision This was the day, I was supposed to be livin' Instead of worrying about the temporary things I had not know where it was gon take me. So many No's, so many Yes'es Oh, I was sure, but now I'm guessing Feel like my faith is getting tested I need a sign, I need a message. ‘Cos, Sometimes shit don't go your way, Sometimes And sometimes you're gon have those days, Yeah And sometimes you feel out of place You can’t promise me it'll be the same ‘Cos sometimes change, yeah, No time Sometimes change. Guitar solo ......... Sometimes shit don't go your way, Sometimes And sometimes you're gon have those days And sometimes you feel out of place Can't promise me it'll be the same ‘Cos sometimes change, Sometimes Sometimes change Yeah, sometimes change
This a very powerful song a strong message and drop just at the right time especially today of the passing of kobe Bryant and his daughter so thanks h.e.r for this great song and RIP to kobe and gigi bryant
After really paying attention to the lyrics, I can not make it through this song without crying. So much truth in the song. "You can't promise me it'll be ok because sometimes change."
Lucky Daye would've been a nice addition to this song!! Other than that, the song is still amazing and H.E.R. delivers as always. I can't wait until that debut album drops!!
HER represents this generation of music in such an extraordinary way: originality, musicianship, lyrics, composition, meaning, heartfelt emotion. All songs on repeat!!!!
Look up everyone that’s going through it, your problems will soon fade. Keep your head up, searching for some sense of relief , you will soon get it.. We all need it.
That moment you realize she said the album was dropping at the end of the year but it’s definitely January 26th... 😫😫😫 BUT I’ll take this sneaky drop before the Grammy’s!! 😍🙌🏽🔥🔥🔥 Sweeping all categories! 🏆
My daughter sent this song to me before she gained her Heavenly wings. The lyrics are so deep and meaningful for so many reasons. There was a mapped out plan, she had a deadline……I’m not the same, I’ve had to adjust to the hurt. No one to blame, that’s just the game and I respect it. Cause sometimes shit don’t go your way, sometimes……That’s life….. Thank you so much, Anecia forever 30💜
Wow I was having a really shit morning yesterday, my mental health can drop so quick, but I know music helps me and I put on Spotify and this randomly popped up.. wow.. I needed it so bad, totally changed my mood!!
I slept on H.E.R. But my father was actually the one who recommended I listen to her music. I found this song at a time in my life I would have never expected that I needed to hear it. Thank you H.E.R 💗
How did she know I NEEDED this exactly today?! It has been exactly a year since I got out of a 8 year long relationship with my ex boyfriend from high school. Damn.
Praying God heals the world and renews our bodies and minds. Many unexpected changes for this year but I know he can make a way out of no way just as he always does. Sending much love to everyone ❤️
Wow she dropped this song on the same day that Kobe Gigi & all of the other victims who had died from that helicopter crash I swear it really hits you hard listening to it after hearing about a sad tragedy like that #RIPKobeGigiAndAllTheOtherVictims
Not sure who is doing the echoing at 3:45 but she was killing it!! This song is so affirming right now. Just 7 minutes after I made a really hard decision.
I was listening to some of HER music and I was curious about her story. So I watched an interview and they mentioned this song during the interview. One thing I can say is this young woman is an old soul, with a lot more insight in some of her songs than most today. I liked that in the interview she discussed how there is a perception of blackness that one is expected to fit and perception of what one should be to fit elsewhere. The reality is we can make a space for exactly who we are. I may not be of mixed heritage like she is but I get it because I was the black girl who was smart and spoke well (aka they said I sounded white as if speech has a color). I have never led with my color, sex, or social status in meeting people. I always led with my name and that is who I am.
I commented on frank Sinatra music a while back saying how no one could ever state something so simply and beautifully because he had already done it. Somehow; HER found a way
