Whoever is reading this, I wanted to say I hope you have a great day and that God loves you so much that He sent His son, Jesus, to die on a cross for your sins and He rose again from the dead three days later. God Bless! And also, He doesn't want you to go to Hell, but He wants you to go to Heaven with Him but you have to be Saved. How do I get Saved you might ask? Here are the steps below on how to get Saved! 1. Believe that God sent His Son (Jesus) to die on a cross for your sins and that He rose again from the dead 3 days later. 2. Confess to Jesus that you are a sinner and ask forgiveness for your sins and Turn away from your sins. If you sin again after asking forgiveness of that sin, ask forgiveness again and try not to do it ever again. Jesus will forgive you! 3. Ask Jesus to come into your heart and your life and for Him to be your Lord and Savior forever. 4. Build a Personal Relationship with Jesus by Praying and Reading the Bible daily and Live for Him Forever. I'm Praying for you and you are loved! (Romans 10:9-13))
July 13th I will be 6 years sober from heroin and crack. I have lost so many friends and family from this horrible disease. My depression got really bad today and I wanted to use. I got in the car to go to the dope house and this song came on. I sat there and cried for over a hour. I then went back in my house. So thank you. I truly believe this song saved my life today. If you are an addict you can do this. You can get clean. It won't be easy but I know you can do it.
Art Vandelay thank you so much. Thank you for all your undercover work in narcotics. I know you saved tons of lives If I would not of been arrested when I did. I know I would not be here today.
My wife celebrated 3 years sober on 10-10-22. She's struggled most of her life with her addiction. She fought hard to get to where she is today. I held her hand praying that she would wake up after she tried to take her life. I felt like she would die in her addiction. Today she is happy, healthy, clean, and sober!! Sobriety is possible!!! To all those struggling, stay strong!! YOU CAN DO IT!!!
8 years August 21st. The day I found out I was pregnant. I quit. Cold turkey. I went into withdrawal. It was bad. Landed me in the hospital twice. I refused to give in. I wouldn't choose nothing over the baby I begged my whole life for. To break the chains and be everything my birth parents never were. I'll never go back. My life is mine. And no drug is taking it away. ❤️❤️❤️ This song helps on the bad days.
Very proud of you! I need to do the same, I could never have kids and dont have much family. I need to find incentive to quite, loving myself should be enough but don't know how to get there. Your story is a help. Thankyou and all the best to you !
All of you. I promise it's possible. I'm gonna give you the cold hard truth my husband tells me when I feel like slipping. Either stop or we die. It's simple. May not be easy. But what it boils down to is simple. Every day you say NO is better than one minute high/drunk/both.
I was extremely lucky to have dodged that addiction bullet. I had a friend of mine since Jr High who got me to try Marijuana when I was 13. Then we started getting drunk, it was the summer of my freshman year of Highschool I was going on to be a sophomore, i went to his house, him and another friend were in his closet they had just smoked something. Not sure what it was, he asked me if I wanted to smoke with them and I said sure He went into the kitchen into his Grandmothers purse got some money out and told our other friend to go back and get more. He hopped on his bike and left, he never came back. I never saw that guy again. By the time summer was over school was starting back up and my Mom told me I was going to live with My older Sister and her husband. 3hrs away. Two weeks later my buddies house got raided by the police and his step dad was shot and killed by the cops. Fast forwarding today, he has been in and out of jail the last 15yrs for drugs, he looks like shit. His parents were always on that shit, and was cool with us getting high with them.
My dad was an addict and passed away from it. My best friend died of heroin 5 years ago. I am 2 years clean from a 10 year crack habit. I didn't want to leave my kids without a mom. I'm so much happier. Going strong!
Women like you give me hope. I'm going through a similar situation with less time clean. But you help me to do what I need to do so I can provide a good life for my kids and myself.
@@alainaestelleraekhan5550 NEVER give up hope. Even if we fall we can pick ourselves up and keep going. No road would be normal without a few bumps in it.
Not normally someone who shares on social media etc but this feels like the right place. My mother died yesterday following complications from long term heroin and other substance abuse. I hadn't seen her in 10 years and saw her the day she died, though she was unconscious. To every addict reading this, past or present, thank you for having the strength and courage to accept your illness and challenge it. Even if you struggle and fall down sometimes, thank you for being what my mother could not be. The pain of losing someone to drugs and them never trying is beyond words. Please never stop fighting.
I am so sorry for your loss. My brother died in 1999 of a heroin OD at 18 years old. The pain maybe deep now but it does lesson over time. Thinking of you and your family.
Give them a million views!! I'm a recovering addict. I lost many people who didn't want to see me that way. Then my heart failed, was at 17% function. I'll be 7 years sober in July. Love this group!!
Brandy Miller keep up the amazing work! I'll have been sober for 4 years in july myself.. keep up the fight,it inspires those that want it but dont know how to get it.
@@Laughoutloud13556 been there...I picked myself up, cause no one else was there...it's the best feeling, though it results in a cold hard truth that, all we have is ourselves, and the essence of god that's within us! IF you do have a loving & understanding family with pick you up, you're so blessed, don't waste it! 🙏
Please tell him I said this. Young man you have more worth than you know, more courage and strength than you imagine, and each day sober and clean is so worth it, but not worth more than you. Stay the course. As for you mom, you to have more courage and faith, it won’t always be easy, but you are staying the course to. I send this with love, good karma, and a big cup of hope.
Absolutely love this song! I was a meth addict for 3 years. Was in such a horrible relationship that took everything out of me. I have been clean for 7 years this year! Turned my life around and married an amazing man and have 2 beautiful daughters
Amphetamines are a nightmare and they literally have taken control of my life. Im glad to hear you are doing good. Im 130 days clean and it is still a struggle to fight the cravings. stay well.
I'm a recovering addict and I have 5 yrs clean now and I'll never go back to that life and I wish this for everyone struggling with this disease! It doesn't discriminate and it's very real!!! This band is so awesome for putting out an anthem like this!! To my disceased mom, mom I sorry for all I done and put u through in life,but the last thing u said to me was grow up,get off the drugs and start living!!! Well mom I promised you I would and here I am, just wish you were around to enjoy it with me!!!! Much Love to the heavens above , and May your voice be heard by the addicts still crying & suffering all over,because my lord its by your grace and mercy that Today..... I'm sober!!!!!! God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,the courage to the change the things i can and the wisdom to know the difference!! 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏
Congrats brother, you dont have to struggle day to day. Find someone to take you through the steps rapidly not 1 a week, 1 a month 1 a year or worse. Do them quckly. They can be done in a weekend. You will have a spiritual awakening, start helping others and the struggle (fight) will end. A promise given to us in the steps we stop fighting anything INCLUDING drugs. Anyway probably preaching to the assistant preacher lol. Good luck to you and better tomorrows. Much Love E
@sikwitIt69 how the hell do you figure it isn't, yes I get the right of choice bullshit but addiction is a disease,it may start off as a choice but eventually develops into a disease that's why people can't stop! Because of the addiction once that starts it's no longer a choice is it that's why it's a disease!!!
My older sister is struggling with active addiction for as long as I can remember she is 33 about to be 34 and she has never met my girls who are soon to be 3 and 7. My oldest asks me why she doesn't get to see her other aunt and I've had to explain to her why which is heartbreaking to explain this to my 6 year old with the added fact she lives states away, I pray one day the rehabs work and she can stay out of jail and prison.. I miss my sister so much and just want her back.
I get it, my brother just lost his battle with addiction 6 months ago. He was out with good times friends. Whatever he took he stopped breathing and they dumped him on my patio at 4am. The only reason I knew he was there was neighbors dogs. He was still warm but not breathing. 😢
I’ve been sober since September 29, 2019. No more alcohol or marijuana. My dad has been having a problem with meth and alcohol. Being sober is the best thing that can happen to anyone whose struggled with substance abuse. I’ve been better off and have been growing in my spiritual life. Thank God 🙏🏽
I've got year clean now. Did a little bit of everything. For me it came from my depression and anxiety. Still battle those demons everyday. Anyone reading this going through the same just know you can do it. Believe in yourself.
Update: I relapsed for a while. 51 days completely clean now. If you are struggling just keep fighting. Im going to be making videos here soon about my story. Please follow my channel and watch them. I hope that telling my story can help dave some of our fellow addicts and those in the struggle. It is a disease thats taking more lives day by day. Stay Strong and Never Give Up!!!
@Ariyahna Drake Trust me that is one thing i can relate to. Drugs and alcohol was my way to fit in at first. Just know you are a beautiful soul and dont need anything to prove that. Dont let anything take that from you and Stay Strong!
I was an addict for 15 years, I got sober after my fiancé left me. I am three years sober now. I listen to this song at least once a day to remind me how far that I have come in life. Proudest accomplishment of my life was getting sober
I am very happy for you. But I have to say, all it takes is one bad day. Keep building up "inner" strength and resolve. Keep yourself on that mountain top
The worst thing is that a non user will never understand just how fucking hard it is to say no or how you feel when youre going cold turkey the aches the pain the shits, im 11 days clean i can do this
I ALWAYS hated the term but it is quite literally one day at a time…. ❤ distance yourself from everything and everyone you know in that dark world…. You got this.
so proud of you and your hard work. Probably the hardest thing you had to do for better quality of life. Keep going. Please reach out to others if you're struggling.
Im 32 days clean today, theres not a day that i dont think about it but im think clearly now and ive recently got a job that i absolutely love and a partner who is very supportive
2 days sober. I think I've played this song 30 times today. Thank you for a song that so many of us can relate too. (2022 Follow-up), listening again... struggling hard... why is it always so hard...
Thanks somuch dear I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately love dear 🙏❤️🥰💕💗
Almost a month sober off alcohol and boy do I feel a huge difference my depression has started to go away I’m having more energy getting my appetite back. It is possible and for those going through addictions keep up the good fight you got this. 👍🏻
Unfortunately for some of us, depression and alcoholism are just symptoms of things we can not repair and both are mutually exclusive of each other. As someone that got drunk often as a teen and in my 20's, I've averaged one alcoholic drink a year over the last 10 years. The risk of others around me getting hurt from bad decisions due to being drunk has reduced but the feeling of having no life has not been reversed by being sober.
38 years old been clean for few a week or two and it feels good and thanks to my wife for me being here she's the one why I'm here and forever to be with her thank you so much I love you
6 years clean , celebrated February 23rd this year. I’ve lost so many people to overdose people I went to school with, hugged , laughed with ..had memories with ..I do it for me first , my soon to be son who will be here in June and the ones I’ve lost along the way! 🙏🏼♥️ one day at a time !
Thanks somuch dear I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately love you dear🙏❤️🥰💕💗
Been clean for 3 years going on 4 and I did it for my kids and the motivation of the rehab facility program ✊🏽 I couldn’t be any happier how far I’ve come. I remember just being lost and finally finding myself. 🙏🏼 For everyone who’s going through this Remember “ You Can Do this “, “ You Got This “ . Life is so much bigger than our addictions
Thanks somuch dear I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately 🙏❤️🥰💕💗
I hope and will pray for you to get recover...coz anyone even one person lobe uh and want to see you recover its someone from your family or friend get recover soon bro...you can never help someone untill he try to help himself...you can do it if you want it
Hoping and praying for your recovery. As an ex addict loving a current addict trying to help him overcome his addiction I know its hard. You got this and dont give up theres so much more to life than our addiction and i hope you find it
Or who knows anyone who's struggled with it. This song is from the perspective of the person on the outside looking in. My dad is a crack addict and I have a friend who's struggling with alcoholism and they're both fighting to stay sober. Ten years is incredible. You should be very proud of yourself.
Thanks somuch dear I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately darling love you 🙏❤️🥰💗💕
Best wishes to you! 1 year, 1 month and 25 days ago I was homeless. Now I almost payed off all of my debts, have a great job in a hospital, have a roof over my head and most importantly: I am clean and sober! If I can you can as well!
Thanks somuch darling I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately darling love you dear🙏❤️🥰💕💗
Congratulations to everyone at the beginning of the video, and to everyone watching this video, on your sobriety. Every day can be a struggle, but you are making it. I watched substance issues consume my mother... your struggles are seen.
One of the things that I like about rock music is that it seems like those of us who like this genre typically are more accepting and rally around those who are struggling with addiction
I would like to say that all of you out there who are sober or struggling with sobriety, You can do it and there are people out there who believe in you! I am speaking from experiences of the other side, my mother is an addict and I struggle with it everyday, between the emotional abuse and the vulnerability of feeling alone. I believe that she can and will change but it is tough getting to that point, so I am here to say there is always someone who knows you can do it and wants you to believe in yourself. Because of what I go through day in and day out, I have vowed to never touch a single addictive substance again, I don't want to put anyone through what I experience. Congratulations to those of you who are sober!! And don't give up to the ones who try and stumble, you can do anything you put your heart and soul into!!
I’m proud of everyone of you that are telling your story of being so many years sober. I fell in love with someone that was an addict and she died from it. I cry every time I think about her.
Any advice for a struggling addict who consistently falls over and over? I've tried 30 in 30 days well actually 60 in 30. NA and AA. Jail didn't scare me like some people and i don't know what to do at this point. I moved at one point 8 hrs north still failed. If you or anyone else has any advice I'm all ears. I can't keep going like this.
My heart honestly aches for everyone going through addiction. I’m not addicted but people in my family are, and it’s very saddening to see them suffer. I’m praying for everyone🙏
Oh man todays mainstream music blows but buttholes. But the true gems aren't the top ones. Cause their music isn't about money its about the music, the connection to us when they sing.
I really needed this song right now... 3 weeks ago I started my withdraws off fentanyl. 2 weeks of pur living hell. Finally feel like a normal person, but still super week. I lost about 30 pounds and weighed about as much as I did in middle school. Time too figure out how to live this life like it should be lived.✊
This!! Im 8 days out of fentanyl... Its been the worst. Ive kicked pills and dope before. But this stuff out there today isnt a joke. Today im sober. Just for the moment. Im still 10 mins at a time at this point. But this song truly has helped.
4 years clean October 18 recovery has been one of the hardest things I’ve have ever had to do . Everyday is a battle but each day I get up and keep fighting! Some days are harder than others. I live day by day and for today I’m sober !
I am going to be celebrating 8 years off alcohol on November 16 all thanks to the prayers of my family and the good grace of God. May he be with everyone suffering from this dasiese
I find myself listening to this song often for inspiration. I have such an addictive personality. It went from an addiction to staying skinny, to using alcohol for confidence. I’ve beat the eating disorder and gained a lot of weight. Now, I’m using alcohol for confidence to even deal with people and I just keep losing myself. “Every moment I’m awake, it’s a fight that you will never know” is the truest statement I have ever heard in my life. We’re all in this together. I love everyone with addiction and those who have recovered. We are here and we are fighters. Don’t lose the battle, babes. 💕
I totally feel you I truly do. Just to deal with daily life and interactions its hard without it I want ypu to know though you are beautiful and you are stronger than this for sure I know how it is as I struggle as well with alcohol to make life seem a bit more manageable with people but you are stronger and so beautiful keep your head up you are worth it all you are stronger get than this🤗
My husband is an alcoholic and he suffers EVERY SINGLE DAY. Cudos to everyone who has or is working on getting sober. I have this song on repeat because he has such depression while drinking and is worried that I will leave him. I told him that I will wait for him. I accept him for who he is. I know that when he's ready. he will go to AA meetings and start the process of quitting drinking
I'm sorry for your struggle. It's not just his struggle, it's YOURS also, and I'm sorry for YOUR pain. I've only known addiction in my whole life. I was born with a gene for it. I was the granddaughter and daughter of some mean alcoholic, the niece of an alcoholic/drug addict and the wife of an addict before finally becoming the addict, myself. While it's always a struggle, it's almost harder to be the loved one. It's harder to watch someone you love kill themselves slowly and you can't save them. You can't fight this demon, only they can and sadly, the demon usually wins. I have 4yrs clean and sober this time and my biggest fear is going back to that life. Idk how I'm still alive and know I can only push my luck so far. Alcoholism is the hardest habit to kick. The withdrawals alone can kill you. I wouldn't Wish that on anyone. But it's something that can be done and I pray your husband finds the strength and bless you for standing by him. There's lots of help out there when he's ready and it wouldn't hurt for him to talk to a doctor before detoxing to make sure he's healthy and safe enough to even stop drinking. That's the thing, the withdrawals from alcohol and benzodiazepiens are the only ones that can kill. If you're not healthy enough to make it through them, it can be dangerous to stop drinking at that point. But there's meds to help and he won't have to be as sick. Doctors supervision is always a good idea when kicking any drug. Please stay safe and strong and I send prayers and love your way. ♥
I have 1 month and 18 days sober of coke. I'm so proud. This song stills helping me everyday. Leave cocaine is one of the most beautiful things that I did for me. The Earth bless you Tommy Vext!!!
I've been sober for almost two years, I still have overwhelming cravings sometimes. This song among a few other sobriety songs have really become an anchor to remind me that I don't need drugs to be okay. Thank you for this, Bad Wolves. You're truly amazing.💕
June 15th I have 8 years clean off meth. Each year I feel that monkey's strength getting weaker on my soul. I know its battle I fight every day. Thank you for music like this. Making is so much easier during the hard times.
hats off to you monkie sage , ive been using meth since i was 14 , im 48 and still have them shadow monkeys outside my mind and window, some days, its a battle to stay clean and chin up proud, i hold my head up high today. i quit counting after 5yrs sober but it didnt last.

I lost my little brother, Eric, on 10/11/22 from fentanyl. I feel guilty sometimes i escaped when he did not. One hell of a father he was! The world is so much colder and dark without him.
I absolutely LOVE this song! It has been my anthem song since I decided to turn my life around. On 2-19-22 I made the decision to get clean and sober. This song was playing in the background. Thank you Bad Wolves. You saved this recovering addict. I'm proud to say I'm 111 days CLEAN AND SOBER!!!
I wanna say congratulations to all of you people who fought to get over your addictions and pulled through to make a better version of yourself. Means you people are strong. Keep moving forward and keep strong
7.5 years sober. If you're struggling, don't give up and stay connected with other clean and sober people. From my own experience - that's one of the biggest things that has helped me get this far.
I’ve been sober of meth for 10 years, weed for 1 year, I just recently quit chewing, my little brother however has been on fentanyl for 2 years and just started his journey , he’s 13 days sober and living in a half way house, Nathan if you ever read this I want you to know how proud of you I am, how you’ve overcome the odds and turned your life around is nothing short of a miracle, there hasn’t been a day gone by I haven’t lost a little piece of me while you’ve gone through this, we all love you so much and am so very happy your back, God bless you all, please don’t give up your fight, please be strong, please keep your back straight and your chin high, you’ve done what a lot of people can’t and won’t, and that’s admit you were wrong and are changing it, god bless you all
First time i heard this song and i can relate to it im a struggling addict myself a battle every day whoever is out there that is struggling you're not alone keep your head up
over 4 years clean. was homeless for 7 years, was kidnapped, hung out with scary people and became a scary person. Thank you Tommy for writing these lyrics. I will always bond with you on sobriety, brother.
This song hit's home for me. I'm a recovering addict and alcoholic and have over dosed a few time's in the past and almost died of alcohol poisoning quite a few time's. This song has been helping me in my recovery
For a moment I can wait It's a fight I guess I'll never know For a moment I can wait I'm holding onto hope And I know you're stoned, I can see it The struggle's getting old For a moment I can wait 'Cause you said you're sober Lying and I can't get closer Tell me, should I let you go? Tell me, should I let you go? 'Cause you said you're sober Lying and I can't get closer Tell me, should I let you go? Tell me, should I let you go? Every moment I'm awake It's a fight that you could never know Every moment I'm awake I'm clinging onto hope And I feel so low, but I'm dealing The struggle's getting old Every moment I'm awake But I'm getting sober Trying but I can't get closer Baby, did you let me go? Baby, did you let me go? Now I'm getting sober Trying but I can't get closer Baby, did you let me go? Baby, did you let me go? On and on we pray Thinking 'bout time and our mistakes Thinking 'bout time, thinking 'bout time 'Cause it's about time On and on we pray Thinking 'bout time and our mistakes Thinking 'bout time, thinking 'bout time 'Cause it's about time So don't say it's over Waiting here while you get sober I'm never gonna let you go I'm never gonna let you go So don't say it's over Waiting here while you get sober I'm never gonna let you go I'm never gonna let you go On and on we pray Thinking 'bout time and our mistakes Thinking 'bout time, thinking 'bout time 'Cause it's about time On and on we pray Thinking 'bout time and our mistakes Thinking 'bout time, thinking 'bout time It's about time

Almost 19 years sober off meth and most days it's still a struggle. When you have an eating disorder the worst thing you can be introduced to is meth and most days I still struggle with the eating issue so yes it is s huge struggle to stay sober. Love this song and listen to it every morning helps me get through
This song is deep. As a recovering addict, I fully understand why my Exwife had to cut ties with me. I struggled for 5 years to stop, i am finally I'm free. If you're reading this, sobriety is beautiful after the pain #wedorecover
I too have struggled with alcohol for the 5 years of my marriage. I tried to keep a lid on it. I was sober for a good year 1/2. Then I went back to Drinking hiding it from her. Never worked on my character defects or took ownership. Now I am sober and I hope and pray that I can reconcile. My sobriety has brought me much closer to God and my walk in faith. My addiction was causing me to be a lukewarm Christian. But now I am running towards God with open arms and a redeemed heart. Amazing grace has has saved a wretch like me.
Hey, that's awesome, I had a surgery every year from 5th grade to my sophomore year in high school. Now I am a freshman in college and I, too listen to this song often because it really does help. It's nice seeing someone else get off pills too. Congrats again for bein off pills for 8 years, I'm going on my fifth year now, still likes to come back every now and again. Especially when my depression hits, that's why I stayed on them. Got a fiancee and had a rough first semester, but I'm still living somehow. I have counseling tomorrow, actually. Keep up the great work, and I hope your life continues to grow and that you keep flourishing into the person you were meant to be.
Thanks somuch dear I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately darling love you dear 💕❤️🥰💗
Im an addict. Everyday is a struggle.im on methadone for 8 years. But right now i have 2 grams of coke & clonazepam. It's hard. This virus is driving me crazy. I know its no excuse but its very hard
I was addicted as well, but this song has helped through tough moments, if I didnt get sober I would have lost not only myself but time with my family and time with my brand new niece!
I really like this song. It speaks so many volumes in so many different ways. my ex-husband passed away from drugs, who I was married to for 12 yrs and now im afraid to go threw that again.
I'm so sorry you lost your love 😢 I'm in a relationship with use (pills) and last year a "friend" sold him some fake pills loaded with Fentanyl. They looked so damn real but he OD'd Narcan saved him but after he lost his Dad it got worse. He's trying and I swear the thing that makes it the almost impossible is withdrawal.... nobody wants to feel that!
I'm sorry to hear about all these stories. I found out that my friend died in September of 2019, but, this doesn't relate to me nor her. She died on Meridian, sitting in the passenger seat of a Volkswagen beetle, she couldn't do much in that situation. I, uh, I.... I didn't sleep the first night and a half of knowing who'd died that day. She died in June of 2019, I found out in September. For months after, my mind pinned it all on me, the accident, the deaths, everything. I also didn't deal with any of my mental problems, ever, just waited it out. I only have one physical object to remember my friend, it's a calculator she gave to me in 9th grade, now I look at it wondering why she even tolerated me. She was a good friend.... ...
I am sorry for all of your losses but if you know someone that is struggling with addiction then you can help then you can save their lives while you have the chance to you can be a hero to that person never forget that you can save someone else life.😀✌👊👊🤗🤗
I listen to your song every morning and everyday....just want to say THANK YOU BAD WOLVES!!!! You are my saviors and it really shows that there is people out there that DO understand our life...i love you guys!!!!
To all of you have commented about your success on staying clean, be proud.... sincerely..... I did five years clean... relapsed, i was with a girl who without being there made me realise how important she was and how disappointed she would be.... it snapped me out of a usual 3 month bender of chaos, I'm now one year and four months.... this song helped... If you are struggling, reach out .... there is no shame.... stay safe
1 year sober. Life still is a struggle but I can't do anything but persevere. Good luck to all those struggling with the battle of addiction. Much love
I've recently beat my addiction and i can't tell you how much lifes been improving, ive delt with the mistakes on a conscious mind rather then being enslaved to my own addiction, this song relates so much about what it felt like feeling empowered by you're own mind, thank you for this it really gives outside people a better perspective about what addiction is and how hard it could terminate you're being❤
This song hits close,Because I come from a family with a history of addiction. I have one member who's been sober over 20 some years, and 2 others that do not see that they need help. Also work in a mental health Facility one of the wards is a addictions ward. That ward kills me as well as all the young people I see coming and going multiple times, sometimes within the span of a weeks or so, others I see once and may see on the street doing well. This song helps put things into a different perspective.
I've never been near an addict, except I think I gave fries to one, he was a really young homeless man, my mom said that's the only reason why he'd be homeless at his age. She didn't want to spend money on him, but I looked over at him, said I was full, and we gave him my leftovers. This happened several years ago, but I'll be holding on to it awhile.
Ill be 4 years sober in February...from heroin. I just turned 31, i got sober at 27. spent a decade from 17-27 getting high, stealing, even selling my body (yes i am a guy). It wasnt until the last year or so of using that i wanted to stop, but i just couldnt. I finally was able to get help & get onto Methadone, started out at 65 mgs, and worked my way down 5 mgs at a time, down to 40 mgs, and now on suboxone. its been a long journey, and its not over, but im just thankful that I have my life back, im not a slave to the drug, looking for it everyday, stealing, doing illegal things, etc. and i have a realtionship and back close with my family again. Sobriety is a wonderful thing.
I have this song as my ring tone, i lost alot of good friends to drugs most have passed on. I have a good friend who moved away to recover from pills who is now almost 4 months clean and is still going strong this song is so touching thank you bad wolves!!
Hunny take it one day at a time. Ive been clean off of heroin for 13 yrs. If u want someone to talk to I'm here. My email address is 5019jhenry@gmail.com. I wont let u be alone in this battle.
Its a hard road. Its easier forSome people, i struggled mentally for 18 months. But ive been totally clean from pills and suboxeon for 10 months and i have no desire to go back
Nicole, you can do this! You're not in this battle alone, even though it may feel like it. Never ever forget that! I'm 25 and got sober 3.5 years ago. Was drinking heavily multiple times through the week. If you ever need to talk, reach out to me if you need to. I'm on Facebook. Just send me a short message so I know who it is. You've got this girl!
Now 8 days sober. 2.5 days out of detox. It's amazing how much change can occur. Going to zoom meetings. Even in person big book study last night. This song played a huge role in breaking me to want to be sober. Now it helps me stay sober. I'm not alone.
14 years......it can be done. Nothing worth having ever comes easy, not even a sober life. You gotta want it bad enough to walk away from everything and everyone associated with your addiction, have a strong support system, and enough faith in yourself to do it. I'm living proof. Thanks so very much to Bad Wolves for all their help and support in this. You guys are true life heroes!!
3 years clean last month. I'm combat veteran came back from Iraq in shambles and was addicted to opioids, then heroin for 13 years, was homeless, hopeless and wanted to die, I had overdosed more times than I can count on both hands. Today, I have things I NEVER IMAGINED I'd have. The love and trust of my family, a relationship with my kids, a wife, my first home, an awesome dog, a Harley Davidson, good credit, the piece of mind that people can rely on me, and most importantly SELF LOVE & GODS LOVE!!! Dont give up EVER!!!
For all of the people struggling with addictions, just know someone will be proud of you if you take the steps to get sober. I may not know you, but I am awfully proud of you for taking the steps to kick your addictions.
Thanks somuch darling I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately darling love you 💕💗🙏❤️🥰
Never been an addict or anything, but this song conveys such a powerful message. No matter the problems you have/had, this song is amazing. It is full of emotion, good lyrics, and a well written message. Phenominal song.
My sister struggled with addiction for years. She's quit several times. She FINALLY had motivation to get clean... She's PREGNANT!! As much as you want to help someone, you can't do it for them. They HAVE TO WANT IT
Thanks somuch dear I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately love you dear 🥰❤️💕🙏💗

Whoever is reading this, I wanted to say I hope you have a great day and that God loves you so much that He sent His son, Jesus, to die on a cross for your sins and He rose again from the dead three days later. God Bless!
And also, He doesn't want you to go to Hell, but He wants you to go to Heaven with Him but you have to be Saved. How do I get Saved you might ask? Here are the steps below on how to get Saved!
1. Believe that God sent His Son
(Jesus) to die on a cross for your sins and that He rose again from the dead 3 days later.
2. Confess to Jesus that you are a sinner and ask forgiveness for your sins and Turn away from your sins. If you sin again after asking forgiveness of that sin, ask forgiveness again and try not to do it ever again. Jesus will forgive you!
3. Ask Jesus to come into your heart and your life and for Him to be your Lord and Savior forever.
4. Build a Personal Relationship with Jesus by Praying and Reading the Bible daily and Live for Him Forever.
I'm Praying for you and you are loved!
(Romans 10:9-13))
Much love❤❤❤❤ God loves us all my prayers are with you God Bless
July 13th I will be 6 years sober from heroin and crack. I have lost so many friends and family from this horrible disease. My depression got really bad today and I wanted to use. I got in the car to go to the dope house and this song came on. I sat there and cried for over a hour. I then went back in my house. So thank you. I truly believe this song saved my life today. If you are an addict you can do this. You can get clean. It won't be easy but I know you can do it.
Stay strong im praying for you!!
Don't give in if you ever feel like you need to do crack just listen to this song and remember what you are fighting for
✊✊✊😀😀😃😃🤗
That's great im proud of you
Your amazing and keep up the great work. You can do it. I dont know you, but you are loved. I'm proud of you. GOD bless.
Art Vandelay thank you so much. Thank you for all your undercover work in narcotics. I know you saved tons of lives If I would not of been arrested when I did. I know I would not be here today.
i am 1 year sober from beer and still going strong
Keep strong 💪 one day at a time
Congrats!! Keep it up! One day at a time! ❤❤❤
You can drink beer. It doesn't count.
Hell yeah fuck what these idiots tell you
Beer? Really???
My wife celebrated 3 years sober on 10-10-22. She's struggled most of her life with her addiction. She fought hard to get to where she is today. I held her hand praying that she would wake up after she tried to take her life. I felt like she would die in her addiction. Today she is happy, healthy, clean, and sober!! Sobriety is possible!!! To all those struggling, stay strong!! YOU CAN DO IT!!!
7 years clean now I’m proud of myself 🤘🏼
Way to go keep it up 🤘✌
You should be proud of yourself. I'm proud of you
So you should be. 13 years clean of a heroin addiction, we are amazing.
Good
That's awesome man keep it up man.
Leaving for detox for severe alcoholism this evening. Sipping just to not shake. Thank you for this song. I want to be sober.
Wow! You’re so brave to start this journey hang in there I pray for you the world needs your light ❤
Congratulations ❤
I hope you’re sober and happy now. I hope you’re at peace and free from the hardest part of addiction. God bless you
Almost 6 months sober. If i can any of you can. Please save your lives
8 years August 21st. The day I found out I was pregnant. I quit. Cold turkey. I went into withdrawal. It was bad. Landed me in the hospital twice. I refused to give in. I wouldn't choose nothing over the baby I begged my whole life for. To break the chains and be everything my birth parents never were. I'll never go back. My life is mine. And no drug is taking it away. ❤️❤️❤️ This song helps on the bad days.
Thats the same reason i got sober i figired out my ex was pregnant one of the hardest things ive ever been through
Stay strong in the rough times
Very proud of you! I need to do the same, I could never have kids and dont have much family. I need to find incentive to quite, loving myself should be enough but don't know how to get there. Your story is a help. Thankyou and all the best to you !
Reading This Gives Me Hope Thank You
All of you. I promise it's possible. I'm gonna give you the cold hard truth my husband tells me when I feel like slipping.
Either stop or we die. It's simple. May not be easy. But what it boils down to is simple. Every day you say NO is better than one minute high/drunk/both.
Sometimes a song comes around that hits home 27yrs clean n sober, did it for my kids.
Awesome same here did it for my daughter
@@jasonmoore3490 way too go proud of you that's what it for bless. You. And be strong
There's not a drug in the world that can get you as high as being able to truly experience your child's life, proud of you Jessie
I was extremely lucky to have dodged that addiction bullet. I had a friend of mine since Jr High who got me to try Marijuana when I was 13.
Then we started getting drunk, it was the summer of my freshman year of Highschool I was going on to be a sophomore, i went to his house, him and another friend were in his closet they had just smoked something. Not sure what it was, he asked me if I wanted to smoke with them and I said sure
He went into the kitchen into his Grandmothers purse got some money out and told our other friend to go back and get more.
He hopped on his bike and left, he never came back. I never saw that guy again. By the time summer was over school was starting back up and my Mom told me I was going to live with My older Sister and her husband. 3hrs away.
Two weeks later my buddies house got raided by the police and his step dad was shot and killed by the cops.
Fast forwarding today, he has been in and out of jail the last 15yrs for drugs, he looks like shit. His parents were always on that shit, and was cool with us getting high with them.
This song definitely hits close to home..
My dad was an addict and passed away from it. My best friend died of heroin 5 years ago. I am 2 years clean from a 10 year crack habit. I didn't want to leave my kids without a mom. I'm so much happier. Going strong!
you go girl
Women like you give me hope. I'm going through a similar situation with less time clean. But you help me to do what I need to do so I can provide a good life for my kids and myself.
respect . keep it up
@@alainaestelleraekhan5550 NEVER give up hope. Even if we fall we can pick ourselves up and keep going. No road would be normal without a few bumps in it.
@@johanneufcourt4544 thank you so much 💖
Not normally someone who shares on social media etc but this feels like the right place. My mother died yesterday following complications from long term heroin and other substance abuse. I hadn't seen her in 10 years and saw her the day she died, though she was unconscious. To every addict reading this, past or present, thank you for having the strength and courage to accept your illness and challenge it. Even if you struggle and fall down sometimes, thank you for being what my mother could not be. The pain of losing someone to drugs and them never trying is beyond words. Please never stop fighting.
SOOO SORRY to hear that❣️ STAY STRONG & STAY SAFE ❣️❣️ ❣️ ♥️ Chrisie frm NJ
I'm sorry to hear that Tom. She's in a better place and she's doing better wherever she is. Be strong. ❤️ From India
I am so very sorry to read this... I pray no more children have to loose their families to this horrible illness
Condolences to your Mom. It is tough losing a parent to addiction and I feel you. I hope you make it through this difficult time.
I am so sorry for your loss. My brother died in 1999 of a heroin OD at 18 years old. The pain maybe deep now but it does lesson over time. Thinking of you and your family.
Give them a million views!! I'm a recovering addict. I lost many people who didn't want to see me that way. Then my heart failed, was at 17% function. I'll be 7 years sober in July. Love this group!!
Keep fighting.
I'm so proud of you! Keep going at it! Love from India
Brandy Miller keep up the amazing work! I'll have been sober for 4 years in july myself.. keep up the fight,it inspires those that want it but dont know how to get it.
@@brianbushart1971 congrats!! One minute at a time, keep going! You can do this!
Keep up the great work! Your an inspiration to many and might not even know it!
5 years clean this june. So proud of myself.

I’m struggling with a pill addiction right now and this song can relate to me. I’m taking it day by day...2 weeks sober now.
Keep it up i believe in u
You can do it!💪🏼
Much love
Been there. You can do it!
Don't give up...u can do it...
I’m sitting in that boat with you.
My son listens to this song every morning dont give up on the ones who need you the most
It hurts when they take you to rock bottom with you
my prayers to you and him
@@Laughoutloud13556 been there...I picked myself up, cause no one else was there...it's the best feeling, though it results in a cold hard truth that, all we have is ourselves, and the essence of god that's within us! IF you do have a loving & understanding family with pick you up, you're so blessed, don't waste it! 🙏
Please tell him I said this. Young man you have more worth than you know, more courage and strength than you imagine, and each day sober and clean is so worth it, but not worth more than you. Stay the course. As for you mom, you to have more courage and faith, it won’t always be easy, but you are staying the course to. I send this with love, good karma, and a big cup of hope.
@@tracygraham8052 thank you very much
To everyone who got sober I’m proud of you & two everyone trying to get sober you’ve got this keep your head up don’t give up
thank you for actually realizing how hard fight is you are special
my wife and i, 7 years when october hit. so glad to be as well.

Stay strong I'm proud of you
Amphetamines are a nightmare and they literally have taken control of my life. Im glad to hear you are doing good. Im 130 days clean and it is still a struggle to fight the cravings. stay well.
Amen

Congratulations on your recovery, Mark! Thank you for sharing your experience. We are so proud of you.
@@globalrecoveryinitiativesf1898 thank u so very much and also thank u for all you guys have done and continue to do for all addicts around the globe
We’re so so proud of you. Thank you for sharing. :”)
Congrats brother, you dont have to struggle day to day. Find someone to take you through the steps rapidly not 1 a week, 1 a month 1 a year or worse. Do them quckly. They can be done in a weekend. You will have a spiritual awakening, start helping others and the struggle (fight) will end. A promise given to us in the steps we stop fighting anything INCLUDING drugs. Anyway probably preaching to the assistant preacher lol. Good luck to you and better tomorrows. Much Love E
@sikwitIt69 how the hell do you figure it isn't, yes I get the right of choice bullshit but addiction is a disease,it may start off as a choice but eventually develops into a disease that's why people can't stop! Because of the addiction once that starts it's no longer a choice is it that's why it's a disease!!!
My older sister is struggling with active addiction for as long as I can remember she is 33 about to be 34 and she has never met my girls who are soon to be 3 and 7. My oldest asks me why she doesn't get to see her other aunt and I've had to explain to her why which is heartbreaking to explain this to my 6 year old with the added fact she lives states away, I pray one day the rehabs work and she can stay out of jail and prison.. I miss my sister so much and just want her back.
I get it, my brother just lost his battle with addiction 6 months ago. He was out with good times friends. Whatever he took he stopped breathing and they dumped him on my patio at 4am. The only reason I knew he was there was neighbors dogs. He was still warm but not breathing. 😢
I’ve been sober since September 29, 2019. No more alcohol or marijuana. My dad has been having a problem with meth and alcohol. Being sober is the best thing that can happen to anyone whose struggled with substance abuse. I’ve been better off and have been growing in my spiritual life. Thank God 🙏🏽
I'll be praying for you!!! Addiction is an awful demon
I don't believe in god, but I do support those who do believe. I also support all of you people who are getting and/or staying sober.
Don't discredit yourself by thanking a warlord (assuming you are christian). "YOU" helped you because you are strong and amazing.
Congrats for you and your family. I pray you can be a light to those around you. May GOD bless you everyday and give you all the help you need.
Congratulations on your recovery. We are not alone!
I've got year clean now. Did a little bit of everything. For me it came from my depression and anxiety. Still battle those demons everyday. Anyone reading this going through the same just know you can do it. Believe in yourself.
We are not alone. Congratulations on your recovery, Mat!
Thank you
Update: I relapsed for a while. 51 days completely clean now. If you are struggling just keep fighting. Im going to be making videos here soon about my story. Please follow my channel and watch them. I hope that telling my story can help dave some of our fellow addicts and those in the struggle. It is a disease thats taking more lives day by day. Stay Strong and Never Give Up!!!
@Ariyahna Drake Trust me that is one thing i can relate to. Drugs and alcohol was my way to fit in at first. Just know you are a beautiful soul and dont need anything to prove that. Dont let anything take that from you and Stay Strong!
@@matthewbutterworth4193 Stay strong and know your not alone.
I was an addict for 15 years, I got sober after my fiancé left me. I am three years sober now. I listen to this song at least once a day to remind me how far that I have come in life. Proudest accomplishment of my life was getting sober
I am very happy for you. But I have to say, all it takes is one bad day. Keep building up "inner" strength and resolve. Keep yourself on that mountain top
The worst thing is that a non user will never understand just how fucking hard it is to say no or how you feel when youre going cold turkey the aches the pain the shits, im 11 days clean i can do this
I ALWAYS hated the term but it is quite literally one day at a time…. ❤ distance yourself from everything and everyone you know in that dark world…. You got this.
so proud of you and your hard work. Probably the hardest thing you had to do for better quality of life. Keep going. Please reach out to others if you're struggling.
Im 32 days clean today, theres not a day that i dont think about it but im think clearly now and ive recently got a job that i absolutely love and a partner who is very supportive
2 days sober. I think I've played this song 30 times today. Thank you for a song that so many of us can relate too.
(2022 Follow-up), listening again... struggling hard... why is it always so hard...
still sober my man
Me too brother. 2 weeks for me.
Just stay sober it's worth it
How are you all doing? No Shame, just love. Sometimes sobriety is a bumpy road. 3 years for me.
Stay strong and pray to god keep your head high
been sober now 20 months and this song hits home every single day i listen to it.....cheers to the lives you touch through music.
Congratulations!
Good for you keep up the good work
Thanks somuch dear I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately love dear 🙏❤️🥰💕💗
one day at a time
ThatTa AWESOME I wish I
Almost a month sober off alcohol and boy do I feel a huge difference my depression has started to go away I’m having more energy getting my appetite back. It is possible and for those going through addictions keep up the good fight you got this. 👍🏻
Unfortunately for some of us, depression and alcoholism are just symptoms of things we can not repair and both are mutually exclusive of each other. As someone that got drunk often as a teen and in my 20's, I've averaged one alcoholic drink a year over the last 10 years. The risk of others around me getting hurt from bad decisions due to being drunk has reduced but the feeling of having no life has not been reversed by being sober.
We must admit where we have faults and shortcomings. We CAN fix and work on them. Our character defects can be fixed. I wish you the best.
38 years old been clean for few a week or two and it feels good and thanks to my wife for me being here she's the one why I'm here and forever to be with her thank you so much I love you
This video makes me cry 😭 you're all so fricken loved I promise
You really just made my day😭😭
Made me cry too
When it says on and on we pray thinkin bout time and our mistakes get me everytime
Prove it
6 years clean , celebrated February 23rd this year. I’ve lost so many people to overdose people I went to school with, hugged , laughed with ..had memories with ..I do it for me first , my soon to be son who will be here in June and the ones I’ve lost along the way! 🙏🏼♥️ one day at a time !
Thanks somuch dear I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately love you dear🙏❤️🥰💕💗
Been clean for 3 years going on 4 and I did it for my kids and the motivation of the rehab facility program ✊🏽 I couldn’t be any happier how far I’ve come. I remember just being lost and finally finding myself. 🙏🏼 For everyone who’s going through this Remember “ You Can Do this “, “ You Got This “ . Life is so much bigger than our addictions
Thanks somuch dear I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately 🙏❤️🥰💕💗
I’m not an addict but I really appreciate this beautiful song and the instrumentals to it. Such songs need to be promoted 🙌
One of my favs for sure 👍
I hope and will pray for you to get recover...coz anyone even one person lobe uh and want to see you recover its someone from your family or friend get recover soon bro...you can never help someone untill he try to help himself...you can do it if you want it
Hoping and praying for your recovery. As an ex addict loving a current addict trying to help him overcome his addiction I know its hard. You got this and dont give up theres so much more to life than our addiction and i hope you find it
10 years clean and sober this hits home only those who have been through addiction or dealing with it will understand the meaning
Or who knows anyone who's struggled with it. This song is from the perspective of the person on the outside looking in. My dad is a crack addict and I have a friend who's struggling with alcoholism and they're both fighting to stay sober.
Ten years is incredible. You should be very proud of yourself.
Thanks somuch dear I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately darling love you 🙏❤️🥰💗💕
Congratulations 👍 I'm a week sober
Congratulations 9 yrs for me
After 40 years of alcohol abuse, I'm sober now 6 years, keep fighting, you can come out clean on the other side
Been sober 2 and half years by the grace of God
Trying to get clean from opiates, alcohol and marijuana. So hard. But these types of songs help more than the artist will ever know.
Best wishes to you! 1 year, 1 month and 25 days ago I was homeless. Now I almost payed off all of my debts, have a great job in a hospital, have a roof over my head and most importantly: I am clean and sober! If I can you can as well!
You can do it, alcohol and opiates are gonna be the worst of it but keep pushing threw it, you will feel so much better
Thanks somuch darling I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately darling love you dear🙏❤️🥰💕💗
Congratulations to everyone at the beginning of the video, and to everyone watching this video, on your sobriety. Every day can be a struggle, but you are making it. I watched substance issues consume my mother... your struggles are seen.
"Every moment I'm awake is a struggle you'll never know"..some real talk there. It never goes away really.
ABSOLUTELY! DON'T EVEN WANT TO BREATH ANYMORE! MAY THE LORD BLESS YOU!
I agree, been clean a lil over a year... but I feel myself falling back in
It will always be there. I just can't let it get the best of u on your off days
Ain't that the truth .....that line made me stop in my tracks and think back to 2 years ago today when I got clean
One of the things that I like about rock music is that it seems like those of us who like this genre typically are more accepting and rally around those who are struggling with addiction
I would like to say that all of you out there who are sober or struggling with sobriety, You can do it and there are people out there who believe in you! I am speaking from experiences of the other side, my mother is an addict and I struggle with it everyday, between the emotional abuse and the vulnerability of feeling alone. I believe that she can and will change but it is tough getting to that point, so I am here to say there is always someone who knows you can do it and wants you to believe in yourself. Because of what I go through day in and day out, I have vowed to never touch a single addictive substance again, I don't want to put anyone through what I experience. Congratulations to those of you who are sober!! And don't give up to the ones who try and stumble, you can do anything you put your heart and soul into!!
I feel this!!! After 20+ years of being a chronic alcoholic, I found recovery. 3 years & 2 mths ago!!!
Thank you for sharing that recovery is possible! Congratulations !
Hi
Proud of you keep it up
I’m proud of everyone of you that are telling your story of being so many years sober. I fell in love with someone that was an addict and she died from it. I cry every time I think about her.
I am 387 days clean from opiates. I am glad I chose to get clean and live a better life.
Any advice for a struggling addict who consistently falls over and over? I've tried 30 in 30 days well actually 60 in 30. NA and AA. Jail didn't scare me like some people and i don't know what to do at this point. I moved at one point 8 hrs north still failed. If you or anyone else has any advice I'm all ears. I can't keep going like this.
My heart honestly aches for everyone going through addiction. I’m not addicted but people in my family are, and it’s very saddening to see them suffer. I’m praying for everyone🙏
Thank you, Jason.
Flawlessssss... we need more of this music genre in todays industries
There's a million bands and songs like this
@@CoffeePotGames I think they mean make them mainstream, we need less pop and more real music with emotions.
@@Asfixiator7 you Sir are a man of true taste.
@@CoffeePotGames show us some examples, my good sir.
Oh man todays mainstream music blows but buttholes. But the true gems aren't the top ones. Cause their music isn't about money its about the music, the connection to us when they sing.
To anybody that gave this message a thumbs down... shame on all of you.
F'm
I really needed this song right now... 3 weeks ago I started my withdraws off fentanyl. 2 weeks of pur living hell. Finally feel like a normal person, but still super week. I lost about 30 pounds and weighed about as much as I did in middle school. Time too figure out how to live this life like it should be lived.✊
Yay congratulations on that just keep it up you can do this 😀✌👊👊✌
👍👍keep going forward! U CAN do it!
Congratulations on your recovery! We are not alone!
This!! Im 8 days out of fentanyl... Its been the worst. Ive kicked pills and dope before. But this stuff out there today isnt a joke. Today im sober. Just for the moment. Im still 10 mins at a time at this point. But this song truly has helped.
@@nikkicameron6633 I have all the hope for you! I'm 9 months sober now and feeling better than I've ever felt!
4 years clean October 18 recovery has been one of the hardest things I’ve have ever had to do . Everyday is a battle but each day I get up and keep fighting! Some days are harder than others. I live day by day and for today I’m sober !
I am going to be celebrating 8 years off alcohol on November 16 all thanks to the prayers of my family and the good grace of God. May he be with everyone suffering from this dasiese
I find myself listening to this song often for inspiration. I have such an addictive personality. It went from an addiction to staying skinny, to using alcohol for confidence. I’ve beat the eating disorder and gained a lot of weight. Now, I’m using alcohol for confidence to even deal with people and I just keep losing myself. “Every moment I’m awake, it’s a fight that you will never know” is the truest statement I have ever heard in my life. We’re all in this together. I love everyone with addiction and those who have recovered. We are here and we are fighters. Don’t lose the battle, babes. 💕
So proud of you, keep going, it’s worth it
I totally feel you I truly do. Just to deal with daily life and interactions its hard without it I want ypu to know though you are beautiful and you are stronger than this for sure I know how it is as I struggle as well with alcohol to make life seem a bit more manageable with people but you are stronger and so beautiful keep your head up you are worth it all you are stronger get than this🤗
My husband is an alcoholic and he suffers EVERY SINGLE DAY. Cudos to everyone who has or is working on getting sober. I have this song on repeat because he has such depression while drinking and is worried that I will leave him. I told him that I will wait for him. I accept him for who he is. I know that when he's ready. he will go to AA meetings and start the process of quitting drinking
I'm sorry for your struggle. It's not just his struggle, it's YOURS also, and I'm sorry for YOUR pain. I've only known addiction in my whole life. I was born with a gene for it. I was the granddaughter and daughter of some mean alcoholic, the niece of an alcoholic/drug addict and the wife of an addict before finally becoming the addict, myself. While it's always a struggle, it's almost harder to be the loved one. It's harder to watch someone you love kill themselves slowly and you can't save them. You can't fight this demon, only they can and sadly, the demon usually wins. I have 4yrs clean and sober this time and my biggest fear is going back to that life. Idk how I'm still alive and know I can only push my luck so far. Alcoholism is the hardest habit to kick. The withdrawals alone can kill you. I wouldn't Wish that on anyone. But it's something that can be done and I pray your husband finds the strength and bless you for standing by him. There's lots of help out there when he's ready and it wouldn't hurt for him to talk to a doctor before detoxing to make sure he's healthy and safe enough to even stop drinking. That's the thing, the withdrawals from alcohol and benzodiazepiens are the only ones that can kill. If you're not healthy enough to make it through them, it can be dangerous to stop drinking at that point. But there's meds to help and he won't have to be as sick. Doctors supervision is always a good idea when kicking any drug. Please stay safe and strong and I send prayers and love your way. ♥
I have 1 month and 18 days sober of coke. I'm so proud. This song stills helping me everyday.
Leave cocaine is one of the most beautiful things that I did for me.
The Earth bless you Tommy Vext!!!
I've been sober for almost two years, I still have overwhelming cravings sometimes. This song among a few other sobriety songs have really become an anchor to remind me that I don't need drugs to be okay. Thank you for this, Bad Wolves. You're truly amazing.💕
What other songs have helped you?

I lost my little brother, Eric, on 10/11/22 from fentanyl. I feel guilty sometimes i escaped when he did not. One hell of a father he was! The world is so much colder and dark without him.
Currently on repeat! 10 months clean and sober! God bless you all in addiction and recovery!
I'm a month and a half clean from a 3 year heroin and meth addiction I thank jehovah god and songs like this
I absolutely LOVE this song! It has been my anthem song since I decided to turn my life around. On 2-19-22 I made the decision to get clean and sober. This song was playing in the background. Thank you Bad Wolves. You saved this recovering addict. I'm proud to say I'm 111 days CLEAN AND SOBER!!!
Tommy’s vocals are amazing
with auto-tune even my dog can sing
I bet you couldn't though.
Yeah, I'm glad that the doctors and nurses were able to bring him back from what his brother did to him during that police break in.
I wanna say congratulations to all of you people who fought to get over your addictions and pulled through to make a better version of yourself. Means you people are strong. Keep moving forward and keep strong
7.5 years sober. If you're struggling, don't give up and stay connected with other clean and sober people. From my own experience - that's one of the biggest things that has helped me get this far.
Just decided to get sober myself. Alcohol has controlled my life for the past 6 years, but not anymore. It feels great to be myself again. 🤘🏾🤘🏾
This world needs healing and unity.
I’ve been sober of meth for 10 years, weed for 1 year, I just recently quit chewing, my little brother however has been on fentanyl for 2 years and just started his journey , he’s 13 days sober and living in a half way house, Nathan if you ever read this I want you to know how proud of you I am, how you’ve overcome the odds and turned your life around is nothing short of a miracle, there hasn’t been a day gone by I haven’t lost a little piece of me while you’ve gone through this, we all love you so much and am so very happy your back,
God bless you all, please don’t give up your fight, please be strong, please keep your back straight and your chin high, you’ve done what a lot of people can’t and won’t, and that’s admit you were wrong and are changing it, god bless you all
First time i heard this song and i can relate to it im a struggling addict myself a battle every day whoever is out there that is struggling you're not alone keep your head up
Thank you for spreading that hope, Allison.
over 4 years clean. was homeless for 7 years, was kidnapped, hung out with scary people and became a scary person. Thank you Tommy for writing these lyrics. I will always bond with you on sobriety, brother.
This song hit's home for me. I'm a recovering addict and alcoholic and have over dosed a few time's in the past and almost died of alcohol poisoning quite a few time's. This song has been helping me in my recovery
For a moment I can wait
It's a fight I guess I'll never know
For a moment I can wait
I'm holding onto hope
And I know you're stoned, I can see it
The struggle's getting old
For a moment I can wait
'Cause you said you're sober
Lying and I can't get closer
Tell me, should I let you go?
Tell me, should I let you go?
'Cause you said you're sober
Lying and I can't get closer
Tell me, should I let you go?
Tell me, should I let you go?
Every moment I'm awake
It's a fight that you could never know
Every moment I'm awake
I'm clinging onto hope
And I feel so low, but I'm dealing
The struggle's getting old
Every moment I'm awake
But I'm getting sober
Trying but I can't get closer
Baby, did you let me go?
Baby, did you let me go?
Now I'm getting sober
Trying but I can't get closer
Baby, did you let me go?
Baby, did you let me go?
On and on we pray
Thinking 'bout time and our mistakes
Thinking 'bout time, thinking 'bout time
'Cause it's about time
On and on we pray
Thinking 'bout time and our mistakes
Thinking 'bout time, thinking 'bout time
'Cause it's about time
So don't say it's over
Waiting here while you get sober
I'm never gonna let you go
I'm never gonna let you go
So don't say it's over
Waiting here while you get sober
I'm never gonna let you go
I'm never gonna let you go
On and on we pray
Thinking 'bout time and our mistakes
Thinking 'bout time, thinking 'bout time
'Cause it's about time
On and on we pray
Thinking 'bout time and our mistakes
Thinking 'bout time, thinking 'bout time
It's about time
I was lucky enough to meet bad wolves on their first tour! I cant wait to see them with disturbed this year.
Won't happen bud. Not with the corona virus out. All concerts and festivals are cancelled
I know right
@@mrfluffysavage1781 nope. They're tours listed in July in Florida. Go try to ruin someone else's day with your misinformed innacurate liberal negative self.
In September I had 10 years sober off K2 hardest battle ever it almost took my life a few times...keep up the fight my sincere prayers for all those struggling with addiction
I've been sober for almost 15 yrs from mEth, only I could do it with God's Strength and Music pulled me out of the darkness
🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Congratulations on your recovery!
Thanks a lot for the likes and comment on my Official Instagram page . And thanks for your support and for the appreciation you've offered over the years..I hope you keep listening and enjoying my music ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️✅ Just text my private text number so we can talk more better?
Thanks somuch darling I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately darling love you 🙏❤️💕🥰💗
This song hit me! 9 months clean in 4 days. Stay TF strong! 🙏
Almost 19 years sober off meth and most days it's still a struggle. When you have an eating disorder the worst thing you can be introduced to is meth and most days I still struggle with the eating issue so yes it is s huge struggle to stay sober. Love this song and listen to it every morning helps me get through
I've never bad a drug a addiction but this song makes me want to be sober.
This song is deep. As a recovering addict, I fully understand why my Exwife had to cut ties with me. I struggled for 5 years to stop, i am finally I'm free. If you're reading this, sobriety is beautiful after the pain #wedorecover
I hope your still doing well! sorry about your wife. you are strong and addiction is not your fault
I too have struggled with alcohol for the 5 years of my marriage. I tried to keep a lid on it. I was sober for a good year 1/2. Then I went back to Drinking hiding it from her.
Never worked on my character defects or took ownership.
Now I am sober and I hope and pray that I can reconcile. My sobriety has brought me much closer to God and my walk in faith.
My addiction was causing me to be a lukewarm Christian.
But now I am running towards God with open arms and a redeemed heart.
Amazing grace has has saved a wretch like me.
46 years fighting my past this song gives me so much hope! Lord save us from areself
Song is amazing...ive been sober off pills for 8 years...wont go back...this song talks to me every day when i listen to it
Hi
Congratulations on your recovery, Tanya and thank you for spreading hope.
Hey, that's awesome, I had a surgery every year from 5th grade to my sophomore year in high school. Now I am a freshman in college and I, too listen to this song often because it really does help. It's nice seeing someone else get off pills too. Congrats again for bein off pills for 8 years, I'm going on my fifth year now, still likes to come back every now and again. Especially when my depression hits, that's why I stayed on them. Got a fiancee and had a rough first semester, but I'm still living somehow. I have counseling tomorrow, actually. Keep up the great work, and I hope your life continues to grow and that you keep flourishing into the person you were meant to be.
Thanks somuch dear I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately darling love you dear 💕❤️🥰💗
Love this!I was an addict im sober now and its a struggle everyday
Proud of you even though I don't know you....❤
Im an addict. Everyday is a struggle.im on methadone for 8 years. But right now i have 2 grams of coke & clonazepam. It's hard. This virus is driving me crazy. I know its no excuse but its very hard
I was addicted as well, but this song has helped through tough moments, if I didnt get sober I would have lost not only myself but time with my family and time with my brand new niece!
Congrats on being sober. That's amazing! Keep on going ❤
Same here bud. 2 1/2 years clean.
My husband just hit his 3 year sober mark. I’m so proud of him!!!
I really like this song. It speaks so many volumes in so many different ways. my ex-husband passed away from drugs, who I was married to for 12 yrs and now im afraid to go threw that again.
I'm so sorry you lost your love 😢 I'm in a relationship with use (pills) and last year a "friend" sold him some fake pills loaded with Fentanyl. They looked so damn real but he OD'd Narcan saved him but after he lost his Dad it got worse. He's trying and I swear the thing that makes it the almost impossible is withdrawal.... nobody wants to feel that!
So sorry for your loss. I've lost so many classmates from drugs over the years and it's heartbreaking because they left their children behind.
I'm sorry to hear about all these stories. I found out that my friend died in September of 2019, but, this doesn't relate to me nor her. She died on Meridian, sitting in the passenger seat of a Volkswagen beetle, she couldn't do much in that situation. I, uh, I.... I didn't sleep the first night and a half of knowing who'd died that day. She died in June of 2019, I found out in September. For months after, my mind pinned it all on me, the accident, the deaths, everything. I also didn't deal with any of my mental problems, ever, just waited it out. I only have one physical object to remember my friend, it's a calculator she gave to me in 9th grade, now I look at it wondering why she even tolerated me. She was a good friend.... ...
I am sorry for all of your losses but if you know someone that is struggling with addiction then you can help then you can save their lives while you have the chance to you can be a hero to that person never forget that you can save someone else life.😀✌👊👊🤗🤗
I listen to your song every morning and everyday....just want to say THANK YOU BAD WOLVES!!!! You are my saviors and it really shows that there is people out there that DO understand our life...i love you guys!!!!
We're all in this together. Thank you for your comment Dawn!
To all of you have commented about your success on staying clean, be proud.... sincerely..... I did five years clean... relapsed, i was with a girl who without being there made me realise how important she was and how disappointed she would be.... it snapped me out of a usual 3 month bender of chaos, I'm now one year and four months.... this song helped...
If you are struggling, reach out .... there is no shame.... stay safe
1 year sober. Life still is a struggle but I can't do anything but persevere. Good luck to all those struggling with the battle of addiction. Much love
Such a powerful song , if you’re suffering from anything , just know it will be ok , stay strong, God’s got you
I've recently beat my addiction and i can't tell you how much lifes been improving, ive delt with the mistakes on a conscious mind rather then being enslaved to my own addiction, this song relates so much about what it felt like feeling empowered by you're own mind, thank you for this it really gives outside people a better perspective about what addiction is and how hard it could terminate you're being❤
This song is not for everyone , only few can understand deeply.
@Josalyn Monroe what is your age
Absolutely agree
Amen
Means more to those of us who understand this horrible disease from personal experience....it's destroyed my life on and off for 20 years
That's true, but it still touches my heart, even tho I can't sense these lyrics as someone who actualy went through all of that and can relate
This song hits close,Because I come from a family with a history of addiction. I have one member who's been sober over 20 some years, and 2 others that do not see that they need help. Also work in a mental health Facility one of the wards is a addictions ward. That ward kills me as well as all the young people I see coming and going multiple times, sometimes within the span of a weeks or so, others I see once and may see on the street doing well. This song helps put things into a different perspective.
I've never been near an addict, except I think I gave fries to one, he was a really young homeless man, my mom said that's the only reason why he'd be homeless at his age. She didn't want to spend money on him, but I looked over at him, said I was full, and we gave him my leftovers. This happened several years ago, but I'll be holding on to it awhile.
Ill be 4 years sober in February...from heroin. I just turned 31, i got sober at 27. spent a decade from 17-27 getting high, stealing, even selling my body (yes i am a guy). It wasnt until the last year or so of using that i wanted to stop, but i just couldnt. I finally was able to get help & get onto Methadone, started out at 65 mgs, and worked my way down 5 mgs at a time, down to 40 mgs, and now on suboxone. its been a long journey, and its not over, but im just thankful that I have my life back, im not a slave to the drug, looking for it everyday, stealing, doing illegal things, etc. and i have a realtionship and back close with my family again. Sobriety is a wonderful thing.
I have this song as my ring tone, i lost alot of good friends to drugs most have passed on. I have a good friend who moved away to recover from pills who is now almost 4 months clean and is still going strong this song is so touching thank you bad wolves!!
I'm an addict and every time I hear this song I just want to be sober n free.
Hunny take it one day at a time. Ive been clean off of heroin for 13 yrs. If u want someone to talk to I'm here. My email address is 5019jhenry@gmail.com. I wont let u be alone in this battle.
I wish you good luck
Its a hard road. Its easier forSome people, i struggled mentally for 18 months. But ive been totally clean from pills and suboxeon for 10 months and i have no desire to go back
You will be Nicole x just don’t give up
Nicole, you can do this! You're not in this battle alone, even though it may feel like it. Never ever forget that! I'm 25 and got sober 3.5 years ago. Was drinking heavily multiple times through the week. If you ever need to talk, reach out to me if you need to. I'm on Facebook. Just send me a short message so I know who it is. You've got this girl!
Now 8 days sober. 2.5 days out of detox. It's amazing how much change can occur. Going to zoom meetings. Even in person big book study last night.
This song played a huge role in breaking me to want to be sober. Now it helps me stay sober. I'm not alone.
14 years......it can be done. Nothing worth having ever comes easy, not even a sober life. You gotta want it bad enough to walk away from everything and everyone associated with your addiction, have a strong support system, and enough faith in yourself to do it. I'm living proof. Thanks so very much to Bad Wolves for all their help and support in this. You guys are true life heroes!!
I'm reminded of how much destruction my addiction caused to my life.
SAME
3 years clean last month. I'm combat veteran came back from Iraq in shambles and was addicted to opioids, then heroin for 13 years, was homeless, hopeless and wanted to die, I had overdosed more times than I can count on both hands. Today, I have things I NEVER IMAGINED I'd have. The love and trust of my family, a relationship with my kids, a wife, my first home, an awesome dog, a Harley Davidson, good credit, the piece of mind that people can rely on me, and most importantly SELF LOVE & GODS LOVE!!! Dont give up EVER!!!
For all of the people struggling with addictions, just know someone will be proud of you if you take the steps to get sober. I may not know you, but I am awfully proud of you for taking the steps to kick your addictions.
I play this song on repeat. Whenever it gets difficult I turn it on and sing it until I feel better.
Thanks somuch darling I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately darling love you 💕💗🙏❤️🥰
ITT: Lots of wholesome stories of very endeavored people. Congrats to you all.
Never been an addict or anything, but this song conveys such a powerful message. No matter the problems you have/had, this song is amazing. It is full of emotion, good lyrics, and a well written message. Phenominal song.
My sister struggled with addiction for years. She's quit several times. She FINALLY had motivation to get clean... She's PREGNANT!!
As much as you want to help someone, you can't do it for them. They HAVE TO WANT IT
You are loved from a far. Stay strong.. God bless...
Hopefully she stays clean. Rooting for her.
Thats right Kelley! Thank you for sharing your experience!
Congratulations to her!
Thanks somuch dear I really appreciate your encouragement love and support so far love you darling God bless you kindly drop me your number let’s chat privately love you dear 🥰❤️💕🙏💗
