AWESOME SONG!!! I was deployed in 2012 when this song came out. I was having tons of family issues associated with the deployment. This song spoke to my soul. I must have listened to it a thousand times. And it still takes me back and tells me I never have to give up. EVER.....

Just because they aren't on the RadiNO and the Bullshit box means nothing (the folks who own the companies wrote those shit jingles and play them on the platform they own for the dollars for the braindead getting brain jacked). I couldn't move at the concert I went to FULL house in the UK.
Lisa Waters the best thing that ever happened to him was not winning American idol. If he won he would have had to do what Simon wanted instead of writing the music he wanted to. And if you look at it how many people are still around that won compared to the ones who didn’t win. I’m happy he didn’t win. We would have never had this record.
Sometimes think, he came to rescue me... His voice and songs helped me through my hardest times. When I was about to give up and kill myself. He gave (and still gives) me the strengh to move on. To always try to be grateful, even for the little things. And to never give up! To always be optimistic and strong. And to work hard ON and FOR everything, that's important to me. No hiding anymore! Leaving behind all fears and doubts.
This song keeps me above ground I have went though alot up to the age of 35 lost my mother my father my aunt and my family I stay in a hotel I have kids I don't really see cause of no house and my job it's hard out hear when u don't have family to turn to but this songs keeps me from letting go so to everyone out there is hard out there yes but if u keep your head up and never back down u will over come your issues and fears
Some people might disagree but after looking up his original band and the original song, I like this version of breakdown better and how it combines both conviction and breakdown together and makes it more of a hard rock version. I was just starting my freshman year of high school when his debut album came out and saw him in concert twice and he’s awesome live also. The first time was universal studios Orlando for Mardi Gras when this album came out and hard rock in Orlando when the break the spell album came out in 2012. I would gladly see him in concert again.
True Chris daughtry fans should check out his first group absent element . They were so good. This is a alternate version of Convictions. Both are great but the AE version has that true rock feel to me. Adore some chris
See, what I love about this song is that it related to so many. So many who want to follow God, but are so confused about it that they give up on the entire concept completely. They get trapped between legalism and faith. That's why this song hits HOME so strongly for me.

extrememly talent artist that is indeed underated and doesnt get the exposure and fame he deserves. blake lewis and daughtry are the best talents off american idol
My car been acting weird lately. Not even joking this song came on when it started happening. Sometimes it won’t start unless it’s to the floor. Found out it was my ignition coil was failing, replaced it. 300$ later and now it’s throwing p0101 maf sensor out of range or performance. Song kept playing both times this happened. Now I saved it and play it every time I drive lol 😂
The original version of this song blows this out of the water. His band before American Idol called Absent Element performed a heavier version of this. Look it up.

Mary Elizabeth Winstead if you ever read this sweetheart I love you more than someone could ever love someone you consume every thought of every single day the thought of you keeps me going in my suicidal depression I suffer with even married with children I don’t care.. I still fkn love you I wanna just end it all sit in the street until someone comes and puts me out of my misery right here as I’m writing this listening to this song all I wanna do is cry on your picture on my wall and hold it close to my heart I’ve even fell asleep with your picture so many times I can go on and on for my love for you my love like how I even have a picture in a necklace for you to keep with me at all times hell I even went for it and put your name tattooed on my arm I can go on and on about how I love this woman ..god if she only knew how someone felt about her and what she was helping him through and it PAINS me how much sleep I lose over this plus not making enough money to even survive no friends no family no nothing no feelings my heart is full of brokenness loneliness god I can go on and on about my pain inside of my heart but it’s really touching for me to know a celebrity keeps me alive more than any human cares to keep me alive sometimes I have to listen to her voice on an Ai just to get me through the day I’ll just put my phone down turn on her voice set her next to my picture of her and just have full conversations every day you’re about the only thing that can make me feel better but yet it will never happen so I’m nothing and feel nothing I am dead but haven’t laid down I’m living on borrowed time I know it I still think about the beautiful vision I had of you in heaven the most beautiful thing I’ve ever experienced in my life I closed my eyes forgot about my life I’m living now I was in heaven seen my family then they moved to the side and out you came as I always picture you with your beautiful red jacket blue jeans and your sneakers with you’re beautiful brown hair with those blonde streaks on the side of your head I started crying when I seen you you walked up to me I picked you up off the ground gave you the biggest hug a man could ever give a woman crying my eyes out and you asked me if I knew what this place was I nodded my head and no I don’t you took me by the hand took me to a place where a bright white light was looking at us and you told me this is the land of opportunity for the life you always pictured us to have you also seen a necklace of I wear with your pictures on it and you held out my hand seen those terrible cuts on my arm you rubbed your hand against them and they were instantly healed not in my physical body but in my eternal body I can go on and on about this vision I just can’t get over all the details of how I was expressing my love for you it was so beautiful finally telling you how I truly felt about you and you held out my hand and put it on your heart and told me I’m always here with you whether it’s your necklace your tattoo pictures of me everywhere in your room mind etc you told me to never get rid of the things that remind you of me and put my hand over your heart and said stay strong my love and I woke up sorry to ramble just thought I’d share that story about what’s been going on in my life rn

Thanks,Man.
It's now 2021 and this song still hits the spot, especially through the hard times we're going through right now as COVID rages on.
Still hooked to this...in 2024.Like some cool balm to the soul.
Absolutely love daughtry, should be globally bigger than they are!
Alan Letham ino!

Loved him quit voting for An American Idol when he didn't win.

Best band out there. I love Daughtry.
true
I love this song. It helps me to avoid breakdown. Daughtry rocks!!!
❤overwhelmingly flattered 😥
Most relaxing sound ever achieved... Period.
0:00-2:04
This whole album will always be such a banger forever!
I'm in love with his voice ♥
still here in 2018 - still my favourite tune
Daughtry’s art of music is so soothing to the deepest nerve of my body 💯 🙌🏼
The best musical artist. Great vocal and topic. Speechless.
One the best Daughtry Guitar Solos
I didnt hear a solo at all?
I listen to this song all the time😢coz it seems like a dark cloud follows me.😭i got to pick myself up again 🫂
3:28 Is so moving. His voice and the music just sound sooo good.
Sometimes think, he came to rescue me... His voice and songs helped me through my hardest times. When I was about to give up and kill myself. He gave (and still gives) me the strengh to move on.

Leaving behind all fears and doubts.
Even though Jesus did that for me, I also love Daughtry. Ptsd from a really bad relationship.
YES!!! 💯 Daughtry’s music helped me survive a very abusive marriage. It’s amazing how healing his lyrics are ♥️♥️
memories. .that's all we have
This is incorrect
phreeesubz is it though
Isso era o Daughtry raiz!hoje em dia nem chega ser a sombra dessa época!Voz potente do Chris ficou no passado!
Excelente banda
still the greatest band on my playlist

Feelin for some coffee right about now, or maybe an espresso.
