The Hill I will Die On (Lyrics) - Alec Benjamin
Some have fought battles
In fields full of cattle and some
and some have waged war out at sea
Some in militias and some with malicious
Intent
some men just want to be
Free from oppression and so their aggression
is worn like a badge on their sleeve
Some have fought battles from desks in Seattle
And some have waged war on the street
Guess this is the hill I will die on
I woke up this morning put my suit and tie on
Walked down to the bus that I ride on
The air felt so still
So this is the hill
I guess this is the will I will write on
the back of this bill with my pen as my quill
& hope you’ll still love me when im gone
The air felt so still
I guess this is the hill I will..
OoooooohX2
Some fight with rifles and some use the Bible
And some use a shield and a knife
Some author libel which sometimes goes viral
And ruins an innocent life
leaves an impression teaches no lesson and leads
to regression and strife
Some fight to stifle and some cause its primal
And some cause they’re sure that they’re right
Guess this is the hill I will die on
I woke up this morning put my suit and tie on
Walked down to the bus that I ride on
The air felt so still
So this is the hill
I guess this is the will I will write on
the back of this bill my pen as my quill
& hope you’ll still love me when im gone
The air feels so still
I guess this is the hill I will die on

*"We've only been hiking for 10 minutes."*
Lol
Niceee!
😂😅😂😜
XD I can't even make fun of him because I would probably do the same thing
Lol
This is so me
lmao yes
Whoever is listening to this, *you have good taste in music*
Gacha LOL OwO thank you, you to ;3
So do you
Did he caught m😆
You too
i just like alec benjamin
"i hope you'll still love me when I'm gone"...
"I will, and i hope you'll still love me when i'm gone too"...
The line is so deep
I hope my own family will remember me...
Bro Bro same.
That's deep
His songs are so deep. They have a different meaning for everyone. He has no idea how many lives has he saved with songs. He touches the heart. He is a psychologist in disguise... Thak you...
Thank*👌
You took the words right out of my mouth

So true

I know no one is probably ever gonna read this, but I just had to say without Alec I probably wouldn't be here. Thank you.
Problably ill say that to.
She's great
@@mariamcholo920 sorry but he is a boy
Faith biggs i know how you feel, without alec's songs i would be nothing
@@user-qm2rg9xx3w Same, i would be gone.
I know how you feel but remember it’s darkest before the dawn you have to fall down before you can stand back up again so remember that when your at your worst you can only get better
His songs can be so simple but so EFFECTIVE
Fax
wait do i sense a directioner lln
@@varanshi6453 me too...
Lmao not me being a major directioner
It's songs like this, simple, not overdone, that masterfuly deliver on it's intentions, that drive me to study music.
" leaves an impression
teaches no lesson
and leads to regression and strife "
This line is so true that it caught not only my eyes but also my heart.
Isn't leaving an impression on someone teaching them something, it's a great song but the logic in this in my own opinion is flawed.
I realise that leaving an impression on someone could be a bad thing, but doesn't impression mean changing it, therefore teaching it. I'm waffleing on.
Edit:
I realise now that the
"Leave an impression" meaning doing something bad too someone or something and leaving a mark.
"Teaches no lesson" means said thing hasn't tought anyone and has only caused hurt.
"And leaves to regression and strife"
Strife meaning, angry or bitter.
Regression meaning, going backwards.

Yeah you're right

Alec Benjamin is such a beautiful songwriter. Especially today so many meaningless songs are the most popular. Alec Benjamin is a reminder that beautiful music isn't lost. He deserves to make it to the top

:(:(:(:(:(:(
My condolences. I'm sorry for your lost.
I'm so sorry for your loss
Im sorry for ur loss I lost my step brothers when they were born I was so sad to where nobody could make me stop crying rip Aidan, and Aston Blake 😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞

To the 1% of people who see this have a great day/night and I wish you all the best stay safe and be grateful for everything in your life❤️
He's such a talented writer! He really has a way of expressing things and emotions in song that makes them utterly beautiful, poetic and (like this one) heartbreaking in the most perfect way. It's truly unique
Exactly! I love his songs so much... he's truly amazing...

Wow what a line
Dear stranger , may you get someone who will love you for who you are and live the happiest life ever❤️
Thank you, on a 2am night without a mental break down yet I need that since I am scared to fall, yet scared I'll even fall, or they won't fall, or won't stay. I still haven't found them but I still have a while to go before I have to really worry, don't I? Maybe give some advice for me to not worry so I won't constantly be paranoid when I may fall someday. Again thank you for this comment in my mess up time.
@@susanlentz5754 hey susan , we all feel like that once in our lifes definitely , if you need someone to talk , i am here dear.
From someone who threw the best thing in his life away for anger. Thank you.
This man is pure genius. How does he not have 3838838382 followers and songs on every station. Powerful writing
Christ...I can't get over how soothing this persons voice is! It's like a calming medicine for me. Usually helps during breakdowns, and I love songs like this. Keep on making amazing music!
Just when I think I’ve listened to every Alec Benjamin song, a song from him I never even knew existed shows up on my recommendations
Your name is amazing...

Dear person whoever reads this,
Hey, you, yes, I am talking right to you. I hope you will see yourself with the eyes I see you one day because I can tell you have some awesome music taste :) You’re such a beautiful human being and worth and enough. I hope you know that you do only need yourself to be happy, I know society builds up the standard that whenever you’re alone you’re not living a happy life. But in fact, that is not true, if you start to realize that you actually deserve all the good things happening to you, you will treat yourself a lot nicer. I hope you let yourself rest, don’t beat yourself up over past mistakes, over regret, and over everything your mind wants to destroy you. I wish I could remove all those demons inside of your head because you deserve to feel happy. If you ever feel lonely then watch the sky, because you know, someone, at the same time is watching the sky too, maybe feeling the same way...I am glad you exist and I hope you won’t ever remove your own spot in this world, maybe you don’t feel like you belong here but, Angel, then build your home here. I don’t want you to leave this world unhappy. I want you to live every little second, I want you to feel alive, I don’t want you to see yourself just existing. You deserve it. Whatever happened, it’s not your fault, the demons in your head recognize that you have a beautiful heart, they want to take it because they have never seen such a beautiful heart as yours, so why let them win over you? . You’re not selfish for isolating yourself, but you deserve to talk to someone. If you’re reading this then please never forget to breathe and smile.
Don’t live up to other standards! It’s your story and not theirs.
Life for those who couldn’t, smile for those who forgot what a genuine smile is, love like there’s no other, hug-like it's your last one.
I love you and send you hugs.
You’re so strong, you’re still here, and I am proud of you.
YOU ARE NOT USELESS. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE WORTH IT. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE LOVED. READ THAT AGAIN.
I AM GLAD YOU EXIST. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE NOT A PROBLEM. YOU ARE HUMAN AND YOUR FEELINGS ARE VALID. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE NOT BEING DRAMATIC.
You’re not a burden to anyone, don’t be afraid to talk, to use your voice.
You’re beautiful inside out. Your body is beautiful the way it is.
Please don’t starve yourself. Please eat, I know it’s hard but you deserve food. You deserve to eat and drink.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. READ THAT AGAIN.
I WISH I COULD HUG YOU RIGHT NOW, SO A VIRTUAL HUG WILL DO.
It hurts me to see you’re in pain :( you deserve so much man, don’t let your emotions control you. Don’t let them get the best of you.
I love u I love u I love u I love u I love u please don’t go.
I am sorry that no one is hearing you, I am sorry no one is noticing that you have lost yourself. I wish I could take your pain away, it hurts me to see the pain in your eyes. I love you through my words and I mean it. I just want you to stay, hold on a little longer okay? Please? For me.??
I hope you have an awesome day/ morning/ evening/ night.
If it’s night for you, go to sleep, I know it’s hard to fall asleep right now but you deserve a good sleep. If you have nightmares, please, don’t let them fight you.
If it’s day for you, don’t start it with such sad music, I know it’s impossible to have a good day with such a mindset but take baby steps, start by drinking two cups of water in the morning, and so on... You will start building little healthy habits.
If it’s evening for you, you’re probably overwhelmed and stressed, I want you to know it’s okay to feel the way you feel. You don’t need to be scared, of course, you’re overwhelmed or stressed, I mean who wouldn’t? But it’s important to know that when you feel that way you should do a little self-care, such as taking a bath for example? You deserve to feel at ease and relaxed.
And if you are somewhere in between I hope you know that you’re stronger than you think, I know you will make it :)
Now wipe those tears away and smile for me, you really don’t know much a smile can brighten someone’s day, do you? I hope one day yours will become a genuine one where you don’t need to fake it anymore, because I can’t say this enough, you deserve a good smile and to feel alive. You’re worth more than every fucking cent in this world.
Remember crying is not weakness, let it out as much as you can but don’t let the emotion control you by giving up. It’s okay, you’re here, you’re safe, you can let it out.
Did anyone ask you, how you are feeling today? If not, how are you really? I don’t think you’re doing good, but you will feel good at one point. Don’t give yourself up.
I am sorry you feel misunderstood.
But anyone who gets to be with you doesn’t know how fucking lucky he/ she/ they are :).
Enough with beating up yourself for today, okay?!
- The stranger that cares about you more than anything.
I hope this is enough for you to stay today, tomorrow will be a new day, a new start, let go now. I hope you can stay.
This is your sign to stay and treat yourself with love, you deserve it.
And in case no one told you today, again, I am so proud of you.
I hope you will remember my words :)
Until tomorrow, my friend :)
(PLEASE! Copy and paste to other videos! Share this amazing message we //idk exactly who// have created! Everyone deserves to know they are worth everything.)
This touched my soul, I don't know who you are, I don't know where you are, but I know you're a wonderful human. Would genuinely love to be able you give you a massive hug right now.
I might've cried just a little...*hugsss tight*
Why aren’t his songs on Spotify I am curious, these songs are hella good
There is a whole very long process to do it and some just don’t want to deal with it
They are on Spotify?
This song isn't
Because its demo
@@ckie4121 i think because its an unreleased song
"When you see everyone around you knowing what they want every day. But you just 'exist' and dont even understand what you'd want from your entire life. All you fear is just being forgotten."
My favourite part was 0:00 - 1:50.
Dang, same.
Heh same
Damn you really hate that last second
I'm in awe of the piano playing in the background
This is my childhood. If it weren't for Alec i probably, most likely wouldn't be here. His songs just...hit deep ig. There's no words in the English language to express how i feel abt him. Thank you.
I'm so glad he added this song into his new album (Un)Commentary, despite making it so long ago :)
Alec Benjamin is so underated, and it makes me sad because he has such a beautiful voice and is so talented in music and overall is just a great artist
It's so weird to read that then look at ur pfp and name
@@kloud9286 lol I just did the exact same thing
same
While listening to this song, i imagined myself dying alone on a hill.
This is a good song to show that people do die alone and go through there battles, I see it in a different few that is too, perhaps striking to a person to say, but they have no more mental health to keep their fights going and writes a will, only they will know.
same
One word: Spotify
I literally can’t find it on Spotify 🥲👌
@@ariyougood cause it's a demo
Who else has this kind of song choice 😌
Youll never be alone:)

Here i am again at 3AM listening to sad songs
Oh god i need help
I`m here too and it`s 2:22AM
Come on...be happy with the nice song
Here and it’s literally 3:02 am ☹️
@@monalisanath2605 🤔🤔
❤️ I sent some love to you, stranger on the internet!
God this is nice. Just wish it was longer
Alec released an official song on his channel.
This is the song I will cry on 😭😭😭
the moment he starts singing you just get the chills...
This song perfectly embodies the sadness and feelings of war, like in attack on titan
With everything going on in the world, I come here and pray for peace. 🕊❤🩹🌎
Fuck peace. Any active duty soldier will tell you they want war. Sitting around all day doing nothing is boring.
*He never disappoints!*
I know that without Alec, I wouldn’t be here writing this right now. His music helped me through so much since I first found it...
Why is this not on spotify? I just want to listen on repeat until I cry
A paradise bird always makes his videos my paradise.
It's too bad that only a small amount stays to their subscription and don't watch him even with almost 2mil
stay with him please
Alec's songs are so calm and aesthetic
I’m happy to see other people like Alec. Not just me and my sister. Alec has saved my life a few times.
Does this remind anyone else of the Avengers,then hit them really hard when they think of endgame?😭😭
I WAS JUST THINKING THAT!!!
Alec is both a poet and a songwriter, his songs are so poetic.
I’ve never grown out of Alec. He saved me.
When I look at the picture, my mind immediately went to "The Little Price" story and started to remember small yet deep quotes.
Then his...death.
I cried...
wait he died? aww he was my childhood! [also the source of most my nightmares but whatever]
i love how Alec sings about *real* things that everybody can relate to..
I really just accidentally found him now I'm so addicted to all of his songs😊
We all love a bit of alec :)
I love how you can interpritate this different ways every time you hear it depending on whats going on in your life, its so simple but complex
You can see it as a way to keep fighting or a way to know your not the only one fighting for a person's badge they have earned on them, so I agree.
ikr? its amazing!!
Best Arts are the ones which can have different interpretations.
I just want it to be over.
"I guess this is the will I will write on"
In my will I'll have one request...
To have my dead dog dug back up and buried with me near my uncle's grave....
I want him to have a permanent grave that wouldn't be messed with because of something in the future.
Also in the will I'd put that all of my art gets donated to some local/nearby art gallery that is trusted...
Best song writer in the world
Pls dont die your songs are so good
seeing the title confused me but was curious enough to hear it and it turns out to be the best song that I heard and very inspirational
Same, it's a place to escape without escaping the world, to hear the story of other people without knowing it, and to know that escaping without escaping brings hope and meaning to things.
Alec is such a good songwriter. His words are always relatable and his songs strike hard because you can always feel his sincerity in his voice.
This is a diamond
"This is the hill I will die on" feeling this so much right now, the things we'll do to protect the one we love.
The fact he just woke up and wrote this masterpiece
And its a demo
I'm crying cuz this is such an amazing song and Alec Benjamin is such an underrated artist
Alec's songs hit different
i love music like that🥰🤩
Alec is loveee😗😗
I love Alec Benjamin so much this song should get more than a million views come on guys what are you waiting for
Homie... thank you this just hits different
Ok If ur hearing this and don’t like it I’m speechless this has a message
The lyrics are deep and it's relaxing while making you think about life
Listening to this after the shadow of war has now cast itself upon millions in the Ukraine due to one man's greed .... really puts some things into perspective.
It really does as well, exactly what I was thinking. I hope that because of NATO Russia won't invade anymore counties for fear of America getting involved but anything could be on Putin's mind rightnow, Putin may be insane but he isn't as stupid as Hitler and with newer technology a land invasion with great Britain being possible where as in 1939 to 1944 they'd need air superiority to take over Great Britain, it makes an invasion of Europe more possible than ever, France hasn't got the military to fight off such a foe, although highly trained and able to withstand far longer than WW2 it just won't cut it against Russia, France and Britain together might fair far better and could possibly beat the Russian's. Poland or any country in the balkains is (Fucked), UN is useless because Russia is basically in charge of that, THE WORLD IS FUCKED, we really do have to hope that either because of Russia's people's anti war sentiment and hatred towards the "government" that there might be a cue, or America steps in and China decides not to invade Taiwan for some reason which (Will not happen) but old man dried grape Joe biden is like a Alzheimer's riddled Chamberlain instead he isn't doing a good job at stopping war, matter of a fact he's only throwing sticks on the fire. And good old Boris has decided he'll copy Labour party and try and use "sanctions" against Russia, why on the planet of fuck would you be buying good from someone you're at war with anyway, I know they're not at war with them but still I don't think Putin cares because China's just going to help a homie out anyway. Basically sanctions won't stop war, none of these retards learn from history so we're doomed to repeat it I guess, just... Russia is our Germany and Ukraine is our Poland, the difference is, we don't have strong leadership. We have a dried fruit, and a horny parting British idiot who can't stop having affairs and partying during lockdown braking his own governments rules. So in other words we're FUCKED.
"I hope you'll still love me when I'm gone"
i have never seen so much rhymes in one song
Alec always teaches me life lessons but in a musical way...
Sometimes the songs with less words speak out the most
Alec Benjamin is a ⭐⭐
my favorite author is alec benjamin
I can even keep listening to this on a loop to infinity! ❤️
same man
Alec makes the best songs ever.. every time when I'm down I always listen to his songs and it helps me calm down♥️..
Pleaseee add on spotify
hello person reading this, if this reaches anyone. we're from different parts of the world, we lead different lives, we are different people. but yet, this piece, this video, has brought us together. and i will never meet you, but just remember we're still connected by this piece- by simply listening to it, together. it's crazy how the internet can bring people together, huh? and i hope you're doing more than "okay," and if you aren't, remember: you will be okay, and that's a promise. please be easy on yourself- it's been a tough year, i know, but we're almost over it, and you will be happy. i don't know how much you'll remember of this, but i'm glad that our lives intertwined in this little way. have a nice day, or night, and lastly, nice life. And remember that Jesus loves you so much and I love you too 💖💖💖💖💖💖
I just found this song, I really like these, not only because this is my taste in music, but also it came up on my recommendation because I was looking up "what to do with depression" and "how to stop depression" "whats anxiety?"
Woah nice song and nice voice
the channel isnt alec
this is wonderful
glad to find this masterpiece after so long
I really wish this was on Spotify :((
It is now :)
New song: CLICKITY
Thank u For This Song it really got me in my feels :)
I couldn't find it!!
Damn he is a legend
I remember when CZcams was so simple, you look up a song, and you'd see a quote or a little comment, but now things are so violent, alec brings this back
i came from the apex legend video and this song is so good Q-Q
HOW TO MAKE THE SONG MORE DRAMATIC: Go to settings, choose playback speed, press custom and go to 0.95. enjoy!
I can't do custom 😭
@@emanelsherbini3728 0.75 works alright
Yea, 0.75x is, although slightly distorted sounding, more nice imo to listen to because it doesn't feel as rushed-
How to custom speedbackplay
Edit: I am not a four year old don't worry :p
This reminds me of him, he loved his music
"i hope you'll still love me when I'm gone"
and ," leaves an impression
teaches no lesson
and leads to regression and strife " these lines says alot
why do his songs hit so hard
Why does this have to have such a deep meaning..
This wins the award for best rhyming song ever 🏆
Found a fellow bird Imma subscribe
I’m early! 💕🥺
People watching this like:
- in bed
- not in a full screen
- reading comments
U just described me brother
The hill on the way to my college will kill me, this song is so fitting
If you listen to this your taste of music is just ✨🤏PERFECT🤏✨
