I listned to this song so much when i lost my girlfriend, i was kicked out of home and my mum and dad split, my stepdad is physically and mentally abusive towards me, we had no money and very little food on the table, i was loaded up on speed and ice, i was alone and isolated. It kept me pushing trying to find the light of day. This song helped give me the strenght to keep moving on, to keep fighting with all my strenght mentally and physically. I got my girlfriend back, my relationship with my mum is stable, my dad and i hate each other, im off drugs, im doing year 12, i have a perfect relationship with my girlfriends mum and dad and i love my 5 year old brother and sister and my 3 year old brother with all my heart on my mums side. Thank You Vinnie Paz for bringing a song out which helped me so much in my time of need. You are my role model and idol!!!
This song is the reason many of us are still alive and the only time we come back to this track is when we are in the valley of darkness. Anyone who is walking in a dark road just remember that Everything happens for a sole purpose. Not one rock moves or leaf falls without a purpose. Thank you Vinnie Paz your music has spread your love for hip hop and your struggle is now our struggle. Any one else who has gone through hell and back can relate with your lyrics. “Self revelation is annihilation of the self” from your first letter. Before the great collapse and this song are 1. Thank you peace
After my father shot and killed himself with a .45 when i was 15 yrs old I fell into heroine addiction for the next 24 years but thru salvation I Finally have gotten clean for good, my mother was always there for me the entire time and always believe i would overcome my demons, 2 of my brothers died while i was in my addiction and my only surviving brother did 7 years in prison and now has 2 kids my niece and nephew. I love them all so much. I sent my brother and mother this song today. These lyrics go out to them and to my Pop's and brothers. RIP family.
Your lucky you had family.... I always paid my bills. My landlord has to replace my steps. I told him I need a motel while you get it fixed. I'm on month to month, lived here for 8 years. Tried to get a new lease but there was always an excuse, He's CHEAP!!! I was told to get out in 30 days. I couldn't find a new apartment that fast. I fell into depression, and I'll be living in my car! Don't tell me room for rent or a studio.... I wrote everyone. I don't make enough money to qualify for 1500 a month. I'm making minimum wage.....
When I was lost and angry at myself for destroying relationships and everything because of my drug and alcohol addiction I would play this song on repeat and it was like my daughter and wife were singing to me to stop what I was doing and that they loved me...I listened and in a week I'll have two years clean and sober. I get to be a part of my daughter's life. God is good
Haven’t really listened to this song since my late teens. 30 now and realizing that the name is Razorblade Salvation and not Razorblade Kiss like I had in my IPod Nano for years. Used to listen to this on repeat and just get lost. Love your story man, hope you’re still doing good and you still get opportunities to make your daughter smile.
ish Right? This song got me through darkness with no light in sight in my lifetime. Without JMT and their brilliance I probly would have died long ago.
PrejudicePotatoe Amen, This song got me out of some rough times and got me started on a better path. Now im happiest I've ever been thanks to this song and some other JMT tracks. Keep living life friend.
Have you heard the prequel song to this ? It's on the album before this . It's called Before The Great Collapse . It's a suicide note . Razoblazde salvation is a letter to his mom about not wanting to die
RIP Sonny Shahram Granmayeh 7-2-16 JMT was his favorite and inspirational music . He told me the day he passed that he was writing more and more to be like Vinnie Paz . He is listening above now .
my condolences. i vibe with them because its real. i love this album because it reminds me of those i loved and lost and the daily struggle we all face, yet revealing the pain that they felt and we listen. Kudos for having that understanding of your friend's death. i respect your thinking :) Dont let things get under your skin. they always watching over you and guiding you when you need 'em the most.
its kinda funny cuz these guys have such an insane lyrical ability and their music is such a vibe man.. but they have never been in the conversation of the best rappers, no one ever talks of them, no big emcee mentions them, no media, no nothing... its like they exist and they dont exist at the same time..MAN THATS HEARTBREAKING !
actually glad that they didn't get sodomised by p diddy actually glad that they write their own lyrics unlike those "best rappers" who are bred by (((them))) to spread degeneracy
"I think I wanna stay alive to see if i can grow" I think this must one of the realest things I've ever listened in a song. I mean it's so full of emotion. Gets me everytime.
Reminds me of an old friend. He told me to make sure I listen to every last bit of the song. That man has been by far the best person I've ever met. If I ever got the chance to go back to California, I'll make sure he knows how much I adore him and miss him.. 😖
Just got outta jail for the second time. I'm 21 and my son died while I was in rehab at 7 months in the womb. I went threw an insane clonazolam addiction. Crashed mad cars due to blackouts. My moms the one who had me put in jail cause she told my p.o about my benzo use. I have 2 felony drug sales heroin and cocaine trafficking and on probation in two states. Got 6 more years. Next violation im easily doing a year (with more probation) not looking for pitty just amazed by myself. Dissapointed in myself because I gave into the way I was raised. Paz helps me alot
Damn bro. I used to be addicted to heroin and oxy. I got clean and i have a daughter and my wife lost our 2nd child to ectopic pregnancy. Life is hard no matter what but i can tell you its a lot better off the hard shit and your loved ones dont have to worry about finding you dead from od. Hope this finds you safe and healthy. Keep your head up
yo fam i just read this and you know what bro i got nothing but love i did my time in downstate tooo, ive never gave up you shouldnt either you ot this dont blame man up call it your own and never again
whenever life takes a turn , and sets you on a road in the worg direction , this song is always there to help me , to find my way back to the right track (google maps for the struggle of life xD)
I think this was the first JMT song I came across on Pandora around 2007. I was hooked ever since & got to see Vinnie @ Rock the Bells 2010. What an experience 🙏🏽
Listening to this song so many years later. Not sure why i listened to this on repeat while i was younger. I just always felt the pain of the world and my parents. Looking at these comments and relating to many stories hear damn.
I don't think Vinnie ever thought, that his music would touch even the remotest parts of the world like Malawi, his truly a legend, respect from Africa......
Navana is finding yourself at peace with everything lost in music, like a form of magic in itself, lyrics hit hard when times takes victims, for every fallen legend you live on in memories left by music you liked, music can change your mood within in a seconds
This song kept me from getting locked up a couple of years ago.More people need to know about music like this, they dont even know how much it could effect their lives for the more positive.
The lyrics about feeling cancerous in others' lives and drinking ..... That was my life 7 years ago. This truly speaks to me. Because I've been down in that dark place. YOU CAN GET OUT OF THIS PLACE! IF I CAN, YOU CAN. Trust me.
If you didnt know, this is a sequel to the song "Before the Great Collapse" which was on the previous album "Legacy of Blood" and is basiclly his death letter and this song is his forgiveness letter
Some men are till trying to regain their tears, who are you to say who has no soul? You don’t know much about a soul if you believe that my brother , this who are hurt still have souls and the true meaning of this song
4 days ago A friend of mine shared this song - a day before he took his own life. This was the last thing he posted on Facebook, the previous was "Ok, I'm good to go.." How come nobody realized what is going on... I wish I could have helped him. Rest in peace buddy.
When someone is fundamentally depressed there's really nothing you can do but hope they find a way worth living. I suppose that's the only thing you can do, try to guide the person to the path of genuine happiness.
This ShiT HELPED me through tough ass times man, When NO ONE knew how to approach me or say the right things, MUSIC like this was there.. I know I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE. AND THATS THE BEAUTIFUL THING. We all Have the power to survive this shit. Much love y'all. REAL MUSIC✊🏽✊🏽.
Haven't listened to this in over 5 years, but I burst into tears half way through the song. The lyrics hit real hard at this point in my life. Absolute classic! 💯 thanks to vinnie for this belter!
Some of these comments are deep. Speaks volumes to the quality of the music. If you’re here, or reading this, you can likely relate to SOMEONE in this comment section. We can thank Vinnie Paz.
I always come back to this song when shit is heavy in my life , no matter what the triumph is , this is the one I’ve listened to through it all . My little kept secret 💕
vp changes his flow dramatically, a superior emcee...his songs like this one are the one people embrace the most...real dude with a heart that shines...

You're here again too? We gonna get out of it this time same way, we Gon bounce back same way. We all come to this song for a reason. You are NEVER alone.

Vinnie Paz is one of the greatest rappers of all time. He kills it in every song he is in, and his songs actually show emotion...something many artists have lost. Vinnie is god
amazing how many ppl discovered them in high school (me included) and years later the songs mean so much more and we all understand what they were creating
I lost my brother 7 years ago and I’ll never forget walking and listening to this track and Bars For My Brother (Lowkey) on replay. I felt like he was talking about his pain and anguish to me through this song. I just knew something wasn’t right with my brother. I felt this uneasy endless pain and I knew something heartbreaking was going to happen but never did I think the next day that my brother was going to take his life. This song has gotten me through the process of accepting the absence of my baby brother but damn do I miss him and what I would do for one more moment with him. Rest up mi Uriel!
Wow if this isn't a sign!! Random stumble upon your comment, Frankie rip mijo I sorry you couldn't fight off your demons kid....your daughter is getting big G ..damn
its so crazy cuz i started listening to vinnie paz and my names vinnie and he was talking about how his dad passed and then my dad passed so his songs are like spot on for me in every way
When I was admitted to a mental facility I snuck my ipod in & listened to this song on repeat. I eventually got caught but one of the staff members fought for me because she noticed that it helped me so they let me keep it.
I listned to this song so much when i lost my girlfriend, i was kicked out of home and my mum and dad split, my stepdad is physically and mentally abusive towards me, we had no money and very little food on the table, i was loaded up on speed and ice, i was alone and isolated.

Still loving this in 2024. Jmt was my favorite
Dude I'm trying to get baptized, but this songs so fn honest, I can't believe i ever dropped this music
"You keep messing around with darkness you're the one who's losing"
This song is the reason many of us are still alive and the only time we come back to this track is when we are in the valley of darkness. Anyone who is walking in a dark road just remember that Everything happens for a sole purpose. Not one rock moves or leaf falls without a purpose.

It’s better this way. If you know you know
Because they are Islamic and shunned by the industry for their militant Islamic lyrics in a nutshell and they are proud of that
It is sad, isn't it? At least they have their fans.
Maybe he got Blackballed
actually glad that they didn't get sodomised by p diddy
actually glad that they write their own lyrics unlike those "best rappers" who are bred by (((them))) to spread degeneracy
I'm stuck in a rut though this song makes it better to kno there are others whom feel the same
"I think I wanna stay alive to see if i can grow"
I think this must one of the realest things I've ever listened in a song. I mean it's so full of emotion. Gets me everytime.
It's better to die and sleep, the never-waking sleep
Than linger on and dare to live when the soul's life is gone
Those are Sophocles words
This is one of the greatest hip hop songs ever made
I agree!!
This isn't hip hop it's soul music lol
This song still brings a tear to my eye after all these years
For some of us life can be a struggle at times. We all came here because this song hit us the same way and that is amazing.
Reminds me of an old friend. He told me to make sure I listen to every last bit of the song. That man has been by far the best person I've ever met. If I ever got the chance to go back to California, I'll make sure he knows how much I adore him and miss him.. 😖
Truth in this hits THE SOUL

This song hits too close to home. Always find myself back in this neck of the woods.
Tomorrow always brings surprises. Don't count yourself out quite yet.

I remember first hearing this song back in 2009. I was listening to La Coka Nostra, and then it had me listening to Jedi Mind Tricks. I love it.
If this isn't my favourite song ever, it's up there.
Do you still say this 9 years later?
Grew up listening to this, many may not know the pain, but Vinnie spits raw.
First heard this when i was 16. Im 28 now. Still makes me cry.

That's right
Some men are till trying to regain their tears, who are you to say who has no soul? You don’t know much about a soul if you believe that my brother , this who are hurt still have souls and the true meaning of this song
Song brings tears to my eyes. So much emotion, and such a powerful song. Love it too much, it's beautiful

This song is rad, if for nothing else, then for the fact it is uplifting on good days, and soul soothing on the bad days. That's some rare shit.
You're here again too? We gonna get out of it this time same way, we Gon bounce back same way. We all come to this song for a reason. You are NEVER alone.
I know that times were hard
I know that you've been feelin' down
If you only knew how I'm feelin' for you
If I could take your pain
I wish that I could wash it all away
If you only knew how I'm feelin'
Mommy I'm sorry if my first letter made you cry
To be honest with you I don't think that I wanna die
Sometimes I feel like that I'm cancerous in others lives
That's prolley why I drink at night and sleep till 4 or 5
It's kinda hard walking through life with my distorted eyes
When I was younger I was stupid and I thought I thrived
I thought a lot about everything I said in the letter
And questioned whether or not if I was dead you'd be better
You think my shorty would be happy if I never met her
It's too late now mommy I could never forget her
Could never forget how she told me to love
'cause my father and my grandmother is always above
It's glory above you know that daddy taught me to thug
And everytime we was with nanny she'd bombard me with hugs[damn]
I MISS 'EM mommy and it's hard to believe
That I've grown and I don't understand that why did they leave
(Better to die and sleep then never wake and sleep
Then linger on and dare to live when your souls life is gone)
You've been runnin' around for so long
You've been hurting yourself too much
You keep messin' around with darkness
You're the one whose losin x2
Mommy I think I'm'a that try to stick around a while
I got a niece and my nephews they need me around a while
I think they need me 'cause they hittin that age
And they ain't tryin to speak to Lenny 'cause they spittin' they rage
And mommy speakin of Lenny I think my brother need me
And we Italian so you know my mother loved to feed me
And it's the little things you do for me that make it worth it
Like when I play a joint that we did and you say it's perfect
And when Jay got knocked you knew that I was hurt
You told me to my heart in a song and it worked
I promised him I'd be there when he got out the bing
You ain't raised me to be a liar ma' that's not my thing
I told him that I'd hold him down the whole time that he gone
They kept him locked in a cage but that's cool 'cause he's strong
So mommy keep that first letter I wrote you on the low
I think I wanna stay alive and see if I can grow
You've been runnin' around for so long
You've been hurting yourself too much
You keep messin' around with darkness
You're the one whose losing x2
I know that times were hard
I know that you've been feelin' down
If you only knew how I'm feelin' for you
If I could take your pain
I wish that I could wash it all away
If you only knew how I'm feelin'
JMT, Vinnie Paz and AOTP take me back.
Such great songs that helped me get through tough times!
Had to re-upload. Everything in HD now
Vinnie Paz is one of the greatest rappers of all time. He kills it in every song he is in, and his songs actually show emotion...something many artists have lost. Vinnie is god
I haven't heard this in years since I discovered JMT in high school, song hits alot deeper now
amazing how many ppl discovered them in high school (me included) and years later the songs mean so much more and we all understand what they were creating
I lost my brother 7 years ago and I’ll never forget walking and listening to this track and Bars For My Brother (Lowkey) on replay. I felt like he was talking about his pain and anguish to me through this song. I just knew something wasn’t right with my brother. I felt this uneasy endless pain and I knew something heartbreaking was going to happen but never did I think the next day that my brother was going to take his life. This song has gotten me through the process of accepting the absence of my baby brother but damn do I miss him and what I would do for one more moment with him. Rest up mi Uriel!
It’s nearly 2 am and I cannot get the demons out my head (depression and anxiety). This song never fails me.
hey, just checking in, hope youre doing better.
Wow if this isn't a sign!! Random stumble upon your comment, Frankie rip mijo I sorry you couldn't fight off your demons kid....your daughter is getting big G ..damn

Rip brother may you find the Light and everlasting peace
@@stampotandijvie922 Doubtful, they're just trying to get attention
Real music, slapping this in 2015, mom I think I wanna stick around awhile and see if I can grow
its so crazy cuz i started listening to vinnie paz and my names vinnie and he was talking about how his dad passed and then my dad passed so his songs are like spot on for me in every way
Peep spilled milk. First vinnie song where he fully opens up about it I've heard
Been sober almost 7 months whenever I feel like using I listen to this song
this is real music...
One of the best hip hop tracks of all time
good God this song takes me back.. literally feel a part of me I thought was dead listening to this shit something or somebody I lost touch with
That was good nite hope see again
Rest in paradise Manuel your forever missed 😞💔
Nobody cares

perfect
With a stud
When I was admitted to a mental facility I snuck my ipod in & listened to this song on repeat. I eventually got caught but one of the staff members fought for me because she noticed that it helped me so they let me keep it.
