Sitting in my car at work crying. One year sober and I’m on the brink of homelessness and this really spoke to me
I don't ever get notifications from RUclips but for some reason this popped up, so I felt like it was a sign to respond. Life is hard and unfair, doing it sober takes discipline and more self control than I've got. Keep on keeping on. I'm proud of ya
I’ll be praying for you man. You got this brother !
I was on top of the world financially just a year ago and threw it all away because I was miserable… you got this dude; homeless and healthy is better than mansions and full of rotten poison!
How you doin brother ?
One year clean here to it's harder to be sober than one might think when I've been high most of life
Brother I love this song! My Mom used to tell me can’t never could and could never would, didn’t make a whole lot of sense then but man it does it now.
Congratulations if you are here in the comments. This guys is going places, it cool to see the rise in real time
I keep coming back too. Haven't had this gut feeling about a singer since Childer did PRAY OVER THE MOONSHINE STILL. FULLY expect to see much more.please!
I agree completely. I've listened to this and his GemsOnVHS entry every day for a couple weeks now. He's damn good.
Wish I owned a bar for him to play just be a fan and listen.
Where is he from?
His lyrics are so real
If you've never been in the dark, you can't fully appreciate the light of God 's love for you (us)!
Hunter as a licensed counselor near Chicago I can tell you that you have saved lives with your song. Music touches so many people from different walks of life. Especially when artists tell the truth. From you, Moonlight Mile, to the likes of Bekah CC to DJ Gudog... no matter the genre. When artists tell the truth it cuts across all lines and it gets _inside_ of people. This song in particular has helped several of my clients to stay breathing and keep in the fight. When they are so traumatized and in pain, they can not even connect with their heart or 'fucked up brain' it is like your song becomes their heartbeat for a while and keeps them alive long enough for us to do the work of healing. Please keep it up. At times you are my co-therapist, and sometimes in the presence of such pain, you are my heartbeat for a while too.
2 years sober , so hard dealing with demons , love from Ireland 🇮🇪
You should listen to the original version by Cody Lee Meese

Mad respect for both of these Kentucky boys, the song is beautiful and has became one of my favorite songs I can relate to 100%.
Mad respect for the writer of the song, but you killed it with the emotional tone and singing. Perfect combo

Yes this blows the writer’s version out of the water
@@johncollins636this may be true, but takes true pain and experience to write a masterpiece like this. Don’t take any credit away from Cody Meece
This song goes so dam hard. 3 years sober with the good lord’s help. Dam those times gets me right in feels. Keep the lord in your heart and you’ll have nothing to fear
Going through a really hard time in my life between depression and recovery I've cried to a lot of your songs keep up the good work man.
Dude I've given this guy and all his music probably 1000 views in the last few weeks since I found him, his music is fire, I Kno this one's a cover but he's got. More views than the original, killed it
I found my wife overdosed a year ago, my life was a mess, but this song has honestly helped me get clean and on the right path. Every day is a struggle, just keep trying your best, and remember 'can't never could'
Good solid tunes. To those folks who are struggling, stay strong.
Tomorrow is a new day. Forgive your self and keep keeping on 🦾
I’m using my wifes account to comment but just wanna show support. This man helping people get through tough times using his music… God bless you sir
And everytime someone likes or comments she gets a little hello, from all💜🌼
You should listen to the original version by Cody Lee Meese
This man may be singing someone else’s lyrics but he’s got a damn goood tune on the guitar and a hell of a voice deserves more recognition 🙏
Built myself a prison just to set it on fire, damn brother that hits hard! I've been falling off the wagon most of my life, trying to catch a ride. Just gotta keep putting one foot in front of the other and praying. God loves fools and drunks, and sometimes foolish drunks. I'm living proof!
This is it bro. This is the type of tune you need. Sounded so comfortable singing this song
Shoutout to the songwriter and him for covering with so much emotion.
Isn’t the songwriter Cody Lee Meese, who also plays the same song
@@darrenmacready7120 not sure I've heard the original though but I like the cover better
Really surprised that this song doesn’t have more views and likes. I love this song
My dad played guitar and anytime I hear someone playing a 6 string it just pulls at my heartstrings. ❤ wow kiddo you’ve got an old soul. Amazing voice. Thank you for the memories this am.
I feel soo bad for those that have or haven't heard this song & didn't receive the message he has for us! This song is so great! You live in that prison that he built & set on fire!!
This guy's voice hits a whole different spot.
Sir your lyrics hit home for sure. If you're ever in the tri-state id love to see you sing! I work for google and I tell everyone that will listen to hear the soul you pour into your music!!! For real your songs have kept me marching in the right path and I just want to say thank you. From the bottom of my heart man your doing it for all of us down here in the gutter trying to live the life we are supposed to never stop singing because you were given a gift.
This song hits so different with me, brother. I dont know if this song comes from your heart and is about your life but it's almost like you are saying every word that I have inside me and how I feel. You brought my heart to the surface for real. That's exactly why I keep going. Because I can and I choose to. Dont mean the things that made you aren't still inside. You can feel your genuine you on this song. Thank you for this brother!
All of my family wonders how I stand all the thunder & lightning, out in the dark!!
Quite frankly this song should have more views I listen to it at least ten times a day 😉 it's simply amazing 😍
Damn this is crazy spent over 15 years in prison 15 years with addiction and clean now 15 I have everything a guy could want and some days just don't want to face the world. But can't never could. Keep pushing on. This song hits home
Absolutely love this cover, you need to get it up on spotify- PLEASE!!!!!!
Wow what a song! This stopped me in my track to look and see who this was singing. Damn good damn good performance 🔥
❤ I'm 62 years old my son was born in 1981 is downfall came at the age of 15! Been in and out of rehabs prison escaping from his family, how to respect that shows you the kid still had heart. He has been clean and sober for 3 years what he has accomplished in those 3 years of sobriety is absolutely remarkable. He is married a school teacher she's very supportive he still goes to his Meetings online and he has a family group of a group that he first he became aware of during his sobriety they are the anchor continuing being sober with all the support that they give. My son is a musician, a damn good musician as I would say and as others do. Everyday is a struggle demons are still there . My heart swells with so much pride In Love for coming so far in a short time. Others in his position hearing a young man like this sing his song of his demons his awareness that there are so many people out there needing support strength and help. If you love your child if you love your man you hold him tight and pray with all the might you have inside. He has a wonderful life ahead of him with support as this beautiful man sings his song I sit here and cry because I am so grateful my son is sober and has a life finally thank you to you we love you
You should listen to the original version by Cody Lee Meese
Good to hear a story like this, I’m glad your son turned around, and I wish more stories were told like this, more people need to hear the ugly side of life to appreciate the good
I'm praying for you you arent too far gone... warrior blood don't come with no struggles all your battles arent for nothing ride it out and put it in your music god loves us backsliders bet that we entertain his angels
I love this song so much! It hits home hard. Damn those times.
Cody and Hunter both amazing talent, can't wait to see where this takes you both ...
I play this on repeat I'll never forget the night I first heard it. Lotta love for hunter flynn
Alcoholic induced depression is very real. This song hits me because of that reason. I cant get over it and one day I hope I can come back to this song and laugh. But right now it just hurts.
Hang in there brother as long as you are alive you still got time. Just pray to Jesus and pick up the pieces.
Can only like this one time. But I can comment whenever this video breaks my heart, starting now. Otherwise ida commented hundreds of times now.
My dad used to say "Can't never could" when I was a kid. I didn't understand it when he first said it to me. Now I know exactly what he meant.
WOW!!! Beautiful voice and sung from the heart. Just amazing. I wish i was there for that live show.
Had this one on my playlist since it came out, still can’t get it out of my head
He is great!Absolutely love Fucked up Brain.
Thank you for this amazing song with the lyrics feel like you stole them from my soul. And tonight I really needed this song thank you and thank music for helping lost souls feel not so lost and continue on when they would rather just not. Bless you
Hunter is awesome! 👏🏼 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Can’t wait to see where this guy goes!
This has to be one of the very best songs ever and I love his pain you can hear in his voice 🖤 maybe I've gone too far
Thanks for the best song I've ever had heard in
my life and I am a 51 year old music man.
You should listen to the original version by Cody Lee Meese
I just was introduced to this today and I've listened a good 30 times.
Omg. FOUND THE REST OF YOUR MUSIC. DAMN. AMAZING. It's awesome when someone is able to reach inside of your throat and tug at your lump like URSULA.
i just wanted to say ditto to all the comments Hunter you're a phenomenal talent keep up the great work
[Verse 1]
Fightin these demons this week seems harder than last
And if I keep on getting this sinkin old feeling
And I don't know how long it will last
Let me ask you one question now friend how do you
Still pray to Jesus and pick up the pieces when nothing else pleases you
All these times
All these times
[Verse 2]
Since the first breath I've taken I've been Forsaken and tossed way out in the dark
People seem to wonder why I don't mind the thunder and lightining, lighting up the yard
Maybe I've gone too far from where I started to start turning back now
Got me thinking things might be better in all this weather if I just jump ship and drown
All these times
All these times
[Chorus]
Well every day I wake I can't tell how I feel except somewhere between a heathen and a driving wheel
Hungry for attention and trying to hide between falling off the wagon and catching a ride
I've tried I'd say but baby I'd be a liar
I'll build myself a prison just to set it on fire
I'd like to say I can't but that ain't no good
Cause can't never could
Oooooooh
[Verse 3]
I didn't get to be a kid so I grew up quick and I guess I didn't grow up right
Started drinking whiskey stead of water and sleeping through the morning and staying out all damn night
Had me feeling like James Dean in a small town scene but they never come to see me in jail
Those are kind of friends when shit hits the fan you're the only fool standing around
And damn those times
Damn those times
[Chorus]
Every day I wake you can't tell how I feel except somewhere between a heathen and a driving wheel
Hungry for attention and trying to hide between falling off the wagon and catching a ride
I've tried I'd say but baby I'd be a liar
I'll build myself a prison just to set it on fire
I'd like to say I can't but that ain't no good
Cause can't never could
Oooooooh
[Verse 4]
Before long I found a little bit of crystal and it had me standing up on my hair
Didn't have to sleep and never had to eat I was trying all I could to be dead
Between dead and dyin is where I resided and seem to spend most of my time
Every day I got older it just got closer to heaven for my horn in the sky
And damn those times
Damn those times
[Chorus]
Every day I wake you can't tell how I feel except somewhere between a heathen and a driving wheel
Hungry for attention and trying to hide between falling off the wagon and catching a ride
I've tried I'd say but baby I'd be a liar
I'll build myself a prison just to set it on fire
I'd like to say I can't but that ain't no good
I'd like to say I can't but that ain't no good
Cause can't never could
Oooooooh
Oooooooh
Never heard this song before but your voice is perfect for it. That little vibration in voice expresses so much feeling. I love artists that convey so much emotion. Beautiful.

@@frozenripples thanks just listened to it…… cool to hear the songwriter sing it too
This is my new favorite song, you have the emotion/voice to go a long way!
This is my favorite song to sing right now. Getting to know the words and being able to feel them in my own life is so unreal. I sing it on my job sites and the therapeutic feelings i get from it are indescribable . I hope you're doing better now if this was a lifelike interpretation of the lyrics. Your killing it bro. 👏
Btw I'm not on drugs and i don't drink myself to sleep. If you are its possible to overcome it all.
I’m feeling this!
This man is amazing. You will go far
Keep it up I'm digging it The Willie Rickard Rock Farm thanks for be a Great Artists!
