I felt this in my soul. Tomorrow is my 5 months no fetty no blues, bars or blow & pcp. I found you on Facebook with your reels and somehow stumbled across your music. Let’s hop on a track together? You are a HUGE inspiration to me and help me in my weakest days, without even knowing it. What you do is impactful. Please never stop, ever?
Congrats on your recovery and 5 months!! I’d love to hear your music. Sober musicians for the win
My daughter is still alive, I thank you Jesus for her sobriety!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Congrats to your daughter on her recovery! She’s lucky to have you
I don't ever cry, it's an aftermath symptom of all the years being so cold, I buried my emotions THAT deep, when my parents died, my son was killed in a truck crash, all these things I wanted to cry so badly about.....couldn't...never came. Not a tear...... Your music just NOW made me cry man. I'm fuckin speechless
thank you so much for being open to it. let those tears flow. so much love. ODAAT
Incredible, bittersweet moment to finally let loose, glad you got that pressure off. Sorry about your son and parents as well.. As an artist, when letting off our ups and downs, we always hope to have it relate to someone. Whether it be addiction, losses, gains, or pain; Relatable is a goal. That's an incredible compliment to receive, truthfully. Keep on keeping on @natedow9328
And good job @BenjaminLerner 💯💯💯. Keep grinding!
I think we all gravitated here for our own reasons, but the major one in common is that it speaks to us.
I’m not gonna get into my past, but I can relate to being able to compartmentalize sh*t and push it down to keep going (something a lot of addicts do..putting it in the “I’ll feel that sh*t later” pile”.
I came here from a short on FB, them YT, till I got to his page, and have been listening to his music for about 30min now. I agree, I don’t really cry either, and this one had me tearing up
Too…
Stupid damaged brain with its busted dopamine/serotonin receptors😒…
J/K…
It’s not my brains fault. It’s 💯 mine after almost 20yrs of abusing it with opiates. Been waiting for it to come back. Some say it does, some say it doesn’t. I’m cautiously optimistic.
That being said, I’m glad this helped you get some of the poison out, dude. You gotta, sometimes.
For what it’s worth, this internet stranger is sending you all the love and light she’s got to give…
very good. Here in Brazil, we have a project called THE SOUND OF THE MESSAGE that seeks to spread the message of recovery from drug addiction. We were able to reach thousands of people from all over Brazil and among fellow sober addicts just for today. Together we can my brother!🔷🙏👊
I believe my son would have recovered from his heroin addiction and written songs about recovery but fentanyl poisoning robbed him of the chance to. God bless you for using your talent for good.
I’m so sorry for your loss!! RIP to your son and all victims of fentanyl poisoning. Thank you for speaking out openly and honoring his memory. Sending love
@@benjaminlerner I hope to see you in D.C. again in July and I won't need to find tissues for you to dry off your keyboard this time. Thank you for supporting Lost Voices Of Fentanyl.

Took the first step towards sobriety today. Started treatment. Its been a confusing day to say the least yet, I MUST go forward or its over for me. I wanted to Thank you for always staying on point. Even on days I didnt want to hear it. Ive been listening to you for awhile now. Sorta hopin I guess. But after some really close calls this past week, I had to change course or I wont make it another year. Will try and keep you posted but regardless, thank you for the inspiration to change.

I remember the Mac killer feature. Anyone else?
RIP to the legend. Going on a decade and a half since I recorded with him. Every time I play that song it reminds me how much of an incredible artist we lost to this epidemic.
That's some heat brotha! I'd love to Collab sometime! Keep going homie.
Amazing Song !! Why can't I find that on Spotify ? Hehe I want more !
thank you so much! this is a CZcams exclusive song but I have an album out on Spotify called CLEAN and more new Spotify music on the way
❤
I have tears in my eyes.. this song is so beautiful. Thank you for making this ❤
Thank you for being open to it! Big love
It's addikted u killed it and I'm sober again hmu bro got new fb much love
This is a solid song but then again that chord progression is my weak spot but lyrically it’s real and I can dig that… subbed bro keep clean
Thank you!! It is a simple chord progression indeed. Gotta love 6415 for cliche chord progressions. If you want jazzier chord progs listen to “Dan And Dave” on my first album. It gets out there
@@benjaminlernerwent through the catalog it’s awesome man , very impressed and I know it’s a great progression
though!
How though? The withdrawals are so bad. I make it a month off percs and I'm back on em. I even went to the methadone clinic and stopped cause it just seemed like I was still chasing the dragon
I’ve been there! For me I had to understand that the same cravings and pain and doubt and shame that pushed me towards the bag could be used as the fuel to keep going and chase recovery. You can do this! One day at a time
@@benjaminlerner yea I get what your saying but I can't be a functioning parent and go to work when I feel sick ya know? Not that I'm half as good of a dad as you
