My brother in law listened to this song religiously before he passed. He was my best friend and hunting buddy. A lot of drugs and memories stem from songs like this. Not one day passes that I don’t think about him. Miss him like crazy and sometimes I wish we could kick it just one more day. RIP Josh love and miss you brother!

I'm here for the comments, I'm leaning on them for support right now. My husband in bad shape and I'm hanging on to God. This song 🎵 is it. I'm speaking for him. Cause I know. I see myself falling back into drinking but knowing I'm not alone pulls me thru. THANK YOU JAMEY JOHNSON AND FANS. I needed this. ❤ much love and prayers for all.

You have to do the things you do not want to do before a miracle can happen. Miracles do happen. From a former alcoholic/addict. 12 Step programs can help and do help some sometimes even saving lives but you have to do the things you don't want to do.

Lost my dad from cocaine laced fentanyl in August, he struggled with addiction my whole life. Using, In and out of jail and prison. I love him tremendously regardless unconditionally. Growing up it was just us. Him and me. This was the last song we ever listened to together, I put it on and told him it was his song. He cried. I used with him as a teenager, but I have been clean 16 years now. I stopped the cycle.

I love the comments reminds me of how I used to be. Never had probation went straight to prison at 24 1st case 9 years for an OZ. Long road 17 years of my adult life in prison. I’m not big on using the words clean, sober for myself. I changed my life for 13 years and well, hit me by surprise. I want to be like all of you again. I read the comments to think harder about where my life is right now. Hopefully one of these days I’ll get back on track. I’m in a bad way, pretty broken. Too much has happened this past 6 years. I’m trying to make sense of it all. I will get it together again, I’ve got to. I have 2 Harleys collecting dust. I just want to wake up one day and not hurt so much. Thanks for listening

@sharonbailes8210 2 месяца назад

Adonai has kept you in this world. Sometimes we have to go through struggles and hardship. I have found almost all of us that have struggled with addiction is because we have been battling something broken inside of us. With Elohim, our creator. We can heal and our God needs us to help each other. That's why we are still here. After I lost my Dad, husband and sister in nine months, all I did was pray for God to let me go to sleep and never wake up. That wasn't His plan. We have to lay it at His feet. He has a plan for everyone of us. It's His will not ours. He will reveal that plan to you. You are so very important, that's why He created you. Lean on Him. I blamed myself for my husband's death. I couldn't except that he overdosed and I started doing meth at 45. I recently got out of prison, was down for a year. I've been sober for 15 months. It's wonderful, I'm high on life because I forgave myself and quit blaming myself. The key ...learn how to love yourself. He created you and that means you are precious. My prayers to you for healing.

@stxr7231 2 года назад

Then I heard this song I'm coming up a have an apartment, a car, and I'm building a new business that has been strong for a year now. I used to say you don't have to be perfect to be a perfect solution, you just have to show up. I'm glad I showed up. The perfect solution wasn't me, it was Jamey Johnson with this song and the man will never know it. So show up. You may not ever know but you are someone's perfect solutions.

I heard this for the first time today, after a 25 year nightmare Ive been clean now for over 10 years. I am so grateful that my mother was able to see it before she passed. I am 63 now but she got to see me clean for 8 years . I regret all the years I threw away, along with everything else i threw away. The stuff is not important, its only STUFF. The years are the only thing I can never get back, that and my family,

I cried at least the first 10 times i listened to this song. It hit home hard. That phrase is too true, that life will absolutely cost you everything and I do mean everything. For me it was Opana, Fentanyl, and Adderall for 10 years, but March 22nd will be 3 years since I have done a pill and it feels awesome to be able to say that!

@chucktyson9688 4 года назад

My son was a heroin addict for years and OD and almost died 2 times. So I can relate in a small way to what you went through... The public is stupid about this stuff. They think all you have to do is have enough willpower and you are done. And maybe you did... good for you. But my son required rehad…. otherwise he would be dead. Willpower is part, but it is much bigger than just willpower. I am proud of you Jesse. Don't ever fuck with drugs EVEN a single time or the monkey will be back. The only outcome of these drugs is misery and eventually death. Seriously don't even experiment for a single time. You are sober now, stay sober. DONT FUCK WITH FENTANYL LACED HEROIN EVER AGAIN. GOD BLESS

Ive heard this song on outlaw country and I am brought to tears everytime. Ive never traded, but I have slipped during my marriage for the rock and roll lifestyle for a weekend with a grunge singer and did the heroin/dilaudid/cocaine/amphetamine syringe thing for a week of weakness and I can say that I left because I saw the dead end that was in my path. But I make no judgements having been there. We all gotta do what we gotta do. But for me, there was nothing but despair at the end of what I was enjoying, and I was lucky to have seen it. Not all of us can see it..but its there..eventually. I plead with people to take this to heart..it doesnt mean you cant indulge here and there..but the constant drag will kill you. Ive been at that edge..I dont want anyone else to be there if you cant come back. Life is about balance..and if you try, you can balance intake with output. It is hard, trust me I know..but I can assure the the rewards of balancing outweigh the complete indulgence.

This song defines my past life. 14 years ago I would do any drug available. Meth was my demon and my lord did it own me. I lied, I stole and I hurt whoever I had to just to get my next high. I lost family I lost friends I lost EVERYTHING. Now after 14 years I have tried my best to make amends and fix everything and I am honestly still working at it. 14 years sober, nearly 13 married. It felt impossible to go sober and fix everything but I'm working at it. All the addicts out there, you are loved and you CAN do it.

@michaelbogart7658 Год назад

I was a police officer for 18 years. I saw how drug and alcohol abuse destroyed so many lives. I also saw the absolute power of God's Love and the rebirth of so many lost people. Sin is fun, but it's much like cotton candy. It's sweet on the tongue but doesn't nourish the body. Most cancers require sugar. People search for "happiness" in their lives when they should be searching for "Joy". Joy last through even the worst storms, while that old cotton candy melts every time.

On November 18th 2021 marked 2 years clean and sober. My heroin addiction caused a lot of damage to my family and closest friends, and caused me to miss out on chasing my dreams. None of that matters though, because I’m still alive even though I shouldn’t be, and i can turn that into something better than any dream i ever had. Sobriety has changed my life and I’m thankful that I was one of the lucky ones to make it out alive. Especially with all the fentanyl stuff going around these days. Stay strong my friends!! I know it’s a hell of a battle, but together I know that we’re all capable of doing it.

You can try on your own like I did and fell on my face over and over, it wasn’t until I gave up and gave it to Jesus that I actually got out for good ! You can too! You are worth the fight, you have so much to offer the world. Every addict no matter the substance are some of the smartest and genuine people in this earth in my humble opinion. You are a child of God if only you unlock the door and let him in. Free will is what makes love possible. He’s just waiting on you, if it takes kicking your ass til you have to listen so be it.
