God led you here to hear this, take your time to heal from all the things you don’t talk about 🫡 it does more damage mentally to bottle it up & do nothing about it.
I’m 32 days sober today.. This song perfectly describes the pain and helplessness alcoholism provides.. it’s the one thing that makes the pain go away. And it’s also the one thing that keeps making the pain worse.. it’s terribly difficult, but you’ll thank yourself for clearing your mind if you can start cutting it back. You’ll start getting things done like you normally wouldn’t. Productivity becomes really important because it’s a distraction and you also get those little things out of the way. Best of luck to anyone who’s struggling with this.. you’re aren’t alone
@@YaBishhhhh66 I know you and OP can do it keep going, and would like to congratulate you on how far you both have already come. Sending positive vibes!
I am not a fan of country music. But this is the 2nd song I heard from you today that has made me cry like a little boy! How on earth you haven't become a household name yet with this material is crazy. Keep doing your thing. Keep bringing new material, they can't deny you. Keep it coming.
Hey man, just so you know... We see you. And we're hearing you. There's no better song than one that touches the deepest darkest secrets in your soul, and this one does it. I have 8 years clean, and work in a treatment center... but my brother died from his use in 2021, my dad struggles with alcoholism, and my mom struggles with drug addiction. My life has been immersed so deeply in drinking and drugging that it has it's prickly little fingers embedded in every aspect of my life. Not only does this song touch the way I felt in my active using, your voice is breathtaking. I did prefer your live performance, in terms of sound. But this is a work of art.. it really is.
it hurts feel so unwanted. thank you. only reason im alive is its wrong to take a life including my own no matter the pain, idk how i keep going but i do
Damn, you are much too young too sing that damn old! Wow, love it! Can't wait to hear more from you. So glad this finally came out! You have so much talent. Never stop! Never listen to the haters. Never let a few bumps it that road stop you from where you are meant to be! You have some raw talent there, people can hear it, see it and feel it. We all just get excited! We want more! We want to see you grow and evolve. We want to support you, because we see how much natural talent and potential you have! Congratulations on this day, I know there will be more! ✌️
Ive had acute pancreatitis 3 times in the last 10 months frm abusing alcohol and I unfortunately still currently drink pretty abusively after trying to stop, going off and on cuz I kinda had to if I really wanna continue to live and hopefully see my kids that i plan to have one day sooner than later.. long story short lol that “I dnt care wat ppl think, jus as long as I can drink” line hit me wayyyy too hard fr fr 🔥 🔥🔥🔥 jus got a lil too emotional 😂
Just found this and God where has this been. Best song when your fully healed and have a backbone. You can listen to this and think like shit I been exactly at this point.
First time in my life I cried like a baby to a song. My brother I don't know what you're going thru but I got a whole family and I'm still right where you are most days. I won't if you won't, ok? 🤞
Much love man. Listening to this while currently going through withdrawal to get sober. This song just reminds me of all the pain and desperation of addiction and how I can’t go back. I pray you’re able to find your happiness soon man. This song is helping me more than you’ll ever know. 🖤
Just heard this for the first time right now. Blinded by tears by the chorus man. Never had something cut so deep, so specifically. Beautiful music. Thank you.
I started following Kevin a few years ago when I first saw him singing John Anderson's, Straight Tequila Night, to his brother. I checked out his socials and watched more videos of him singing and instantly realized that this guy has it. Let's get real, other than Charlie Pride, country music lacks African American vocalist. Not to mention, he's a phenomenal songwriter, which is why you're reading this comment right now. I will continue to lift this young man up and support his journey in creating new and real country music! 🤠
I feel this song and this comment in my soul. 35 and this coming week make 5 years since the woman I was planning to propose to walked out on me. Spent all the time since alone (single) and I have isolated myself from everyone I know including most of my family the last couple years subconsciously trying to find ways to stay busy. Been sitting here by the fire drinking and moping around all night wishing I could out run the memories but I guess I started 40 steps behind
Ima addict myself of alcohol and weed but from family experience ik pills are harder to cope with I’m still tryna kick my addictions away I started once I got my heart broken at 19 then I found my true love at 22 we just hit our 1 year anniversary last week thank God for her and if there’s any other guys out there like me trust me just be yourself, I didn’t think I had great personality but you and I do believe me that I promise🩶🩶
Bro remember when I say this!!!! Please do not stop making music one day the whole world will know your name. You are definitely the next up my boy I’ll be checking for all your new music god bless 🙏🙏🙏🙏
You put them words down perfect, you sing with conviction and power. This song what country music is, deep emotions that are almost untouchable. You make the uncomfortable, beautiful. Kudos man
This song just hit me hard😓 I broke loose from my alcohol addiction 1year ago! Mann it’s a long road to being fully healed but i know for sure I can’t afford to go back!! You’re in my prayers man! God is the only person you need everyday, pick your head up soldier you worth more than you know🙏🏼💛💫
You can feel his pain, this shared human experience is hard on all of us. Its amazing how we as a species can overcome feelings of despair and smile on the other side
Damn homie this hit home, I wish you all the success. There is a light pole that every day I drive by and I think just push the gas and close your eyes. Then I remember how hard some people have tried to save me, selfless people who have always supported me. I can't hurt them like that but I also keep fucking up. I know better.
What a great song Kevin , Although I may not be battling anything I know many people out there are and hope and wish they seek help and know they are not alone , keep blessing us with your music 🙏🏼 Remember no one is ever alone
This is so good bro. All the power of music lies in someone feeling something when they listen to your music and you captured that perfectly. Seriously, well done man 👏
Wow those lyrics hit hard. Tough, honest, heart on the sleeve lyrics. Definitely gonna be a hit especially amongst those who have experienced this or loved ones who have. 🥺❤️💯
When you get big don’t forget where you came from and what works for you when you’re writing your songs my friend. Thank you for this beautiful work of art.
We all go through it brother.. I'm going through it now.. I'll support this till the end.. I'll share it always and I hope anybody who has ever felt this way will too. You not alone brother. 💯
Feel this song heavy man. You can be your own worst enemy sometimes. Horrible cycle to be in. I'll find my way, I always do. Great song brother, keep it up.
Your acoustic version I saw on Facebook really killed it. It hit home. I suffer from addiction and I remember not long ago I was feeling exactly like that. I'm grateful for my clean time today ❤
Found this song today, listened to it 100 times, hope this man drops an album soon, really talented. The lyrics really describe how most of us feel everyday
Keep going one day at a time. Congrats on the clean time I’m sitting at 288 days myself and just found this song today and it definitely hits you right in the feels when you’ve lived it. I don’t know you or your fiancée obviously but I’m really happy for you guys that you’ve started this journey together
Been following you since akademiks shared your page last year. Mark my words in a year u will be one of the top artists in the world Kevin. Thanks for this song, Keep being you. 💯
AUG 9 2017 WE DO RECOVER great song brother captures what hell addiction brings but believe me their is life after i hope all that are still sick and suffering find your light and your eyes open again to life i know you all can do it if i can choose life sending love and blessings to you all.
First time I've heard of you. And I already love you and your work. I live in the UK so I don't think this lifeline will work for me but ot doesn't stop me loving this song. You have made me realised a tiny bit that I'm not alone no matter what. The thing is about me is that I don't talk about my sadness because I feel like I burden people with my problems. Thank you for making me realise a tiny bit that I'm never alone. Can't wait to see what you do next ❤
Just found you through a react clip and it brought me to tears, I had to come hear the full version. Man, do not give up, in music or life, youve got so much to offer both. Fantastic lyricism and delivery, combined with someone who sounds that they truly understand their content and message, youre a gem my man. Keep going.
Great song bud. This song makes me feel your pain. Sad how pain of the heart seems to inspire people to make good music. You’re in my top ten in my playlist bud.
Holy shit I didn’t know how much I needed to hear this. We’ve all been there man. Just never forget that you have no idea how much you effect the world around you and how much you’ll be missed when your gone. It get better man.
