      I had never heard of Stephen Wilson Jr. before this morning. I saw a Facebook Reel of snippets of this video, and I rushed here to get the whole thing. I have been lying in bed for the last 40 minutes listening to it on repeat, crying harder than I ever have in my entire life.
      I lost that person that used to stand by me this year and it has been the most painful thing I've experienced in a long time. This song shook that awake in me...

    To Stephen,
    I was a walking dead man until I heard this cover. Your voice and the sound of your guitar cut me open like a knife. Allowing me see the parts of me that has rotten/died when I lost my father and my best friend. The magic in your song freed me from the grief and loneliness that wouldn’t leave me alone. Thank you for making me feel alive again. Thank you for being who you are and thank you for singing with your heart. I hope one day I can give back to the world the same way you did. God bless you.

    I've heard this song a million times, always liked it. Today I listened to it for the 1st time, this is what art is supposed to represent. This artist right here gives me faith that for 4 min and 13 seconds everything will be ok, and maybe, just maybe, for even a little while longer. Job well done Mr. Wilson Jr.

    3:19 I could hear that guitar crying. Trying to be there for him. To stand by him. I could feel the tension, the pain and the glory all in the same.
    As long as this man has his guitar, he won't be afraid.

    I can’t stop listening to this. There’s something about the way he plays this classical guitar, the way he builds it up slowly, it all pulls me in. The music feels raw and almost haunting, like he’s putting words to things I’ve felt but couldn’t say. It’s like I’m standing with my past self, feeling everything I’ve been through, while finding strength for my future self. The way he plays, it’s not just background, it’s like it’s telling my story right along with his voice. This song is powerful in a way I didn’t expect, but it’s exactly what I’ve needed this past week.
