Zach Bryan - Mine Again
Embed
- Published on Feb 16, 2026
- You are mine again, every mistake that you made,
All the people that you saved, took a little piece of you with them
You are mine again, and I’m so damn glad you’re here,
Talking sober, calm and clear like you couldn’t back then
How many sad songs it take, to get your stubborn ass awake,
What finally got you rising from your bed,
Was it the sunset on her cheeks, leading down to her delicate collarbones,
Or the judgement of your mind when you’re alone
Mine again, my fondest friend where the hell you been,
I’ve been struggling to get back to you
If you fight all night, I’m sure you’ll gain the guts to try,
To get past the things that you’ve been through,
No one plays the fool quite like you
Are those tires you got still turning,
Is that spirit you had still burning,
Do you still talk that shit the way you did before
And all the women and the wages and the wars that I’ve been waging,
I just don’t feel like fighting anymore
Mine again, my fondest friend where the hell you been,
I’ve been struggling to get back to you
If you fight all night, I’m sure you’ll gain the guts to try,
It ain’t your fault what you’ve been through
No one plays it cool quite the way you do
Mine again, so head back home and be who you know you can
Mine again, so don’t be so cruel and play God with all his plans
Mine again, my fondest friend, where the hell you been
I’ve been struggling to get back to you
If you fight all night, I’m sure you’ll gain the guts to try
It’s not your fault what you’ve been through
No one plays it cool quite like you
Cause I am mine again, with every mistake that I made,
And I ain’t ashamed to say who the hell I am
Cause I am mine again, and I’m so damn glad I’m here,
Talking strong, sober and clear, like I couldn’t back then








For years ive listened to this, praying one day I could sing it sober, calm and clear. Today, Im 120 days clean from Fentanyl. I purposely waited for this day to listen once again, and Im proud to say I sang this song sober, calm and clear for the first time.
I’m proud of you! You’re doing great! I lost my brother to fentanyl. I hope you continue your sobriety. Stay strong. You got this.
Keep at it! It's amazing how little things like a line from a song can motivate people and reveal some life changing perspectives. I was having some real trust issues after the end of a long and sour relationship with my ex and I was having second thoughts about ever committing again. Then I remembered the line from a Dawes song that went like "if you can give yourself to someone then you should". And it was enough of a push to give me courage to give myself a second chance, started dating the best girl I have ever met and I eventually married her. But what really hits is when you realize that the strength to overcome was always in you, the song just gave it a little kick out of the door. Again, congrats man.
Maybe one day I will as well
Been at war with fentanyl now for a long time. I can say with genuine truth, that anyone who has fought in that war and came out on top, is a strong person. Stay on top my friend we don’t know each other, but I’m proud of you. Stay strong and alive.
45 Days here. Stay strong. Be proud of yourself. Salute!
1st of February and I'm listening to this, I'm over 300 clean and sober, we do recover!! Keep doing your thing Zack
glad to hear that !
Hey everyone, hopefully everyone knows that I know the soloing and instrumentation was absolute shit in this, I hope they also know I don’t care. Recorded this in 30 minutes and one take; felt like I had something to say after a hard patch in my life. Stay steady and know you will always be yours if you claim whoever it is. Thank you!!
Sounds good bro. Never heard Alaskan country before
Just found you yesterday and you’re already one of my favorite artists of all time. Keep up the great work and stay true to who you are my man, you’re going places
Feeling the hurt in the vocals.. for what you were trying to accomplish it was received. I don’t play music to make other ppl feel good as selfish as that sounds.. I play for my heart that seems to always be healing
incredible bortha. Actually made me cry. Thank you
A girl that I have a crush on likes his music I have never heard of zach bryan intill she told me but the girl that I like I was talking to through social media because she does not go to my school anymore unfriend me and I did not even get to tell her I like her I asked her out before like one or two years and she rejected me I was thinking about writing her a song but I do not really know how to I have some songs I writen but they all the lyrics rhyme and not that long more like a poem/ song what is zach bryan music really about
It’s January 19, 2026…I’m Fighting An Addiction…I Thought Kratom Would Be A Mood Booster, 5 Years Later It’s Took Control Over Me The Same Way Heroin And Alcohol Did…I’m Going Through Withdrawals Looking At My Daughter Thinking How This Little Girl Needs Her Daddy…I’m Gonna Fight This Fight And Take Back Control Over My Life…Just Like All The Other Battles I’ve Won, I’m Gonna Win This One Too!!!Much Love To Everyone…
Victory is around the corner 🎉
My son has been fighting it for 2 years now… he’s talking about going to have to go to rehab to get off the crap
Every day, wake up saying I’m going to succeed today. Do this every day of your life. Also, thank God every moment for the gift of precious life. Good luck my friend.
You got this man. If the urge is to strong, go to a 30 day facility at what ever cost and reset. The time spent away from her will add extra motivation to why u cant go back to drugs.
God bless you my friend
I’m 18 and I hate how in my friends group I’m the only that prefers this kind Music over rap
It takes quite the soul to understand this kind of music. Let the kids be kids and enjoy what the world tells them they should; but as for you, brother.. smirk from a distance and take pride in the fact that your heart is connected to the type of music that’ll last a lifetime and another half step. Cheers
Sameeee, I’m 14 and everyone around me listens to rap and every time I tell them to listen to this stuff they always say “it’s just beer and trucks” and it makes me so mad. I should clarify I have nothing against rap, a lot of rappers have really good and soulful songs but I hate how rap has become “WITH THE BLIKY AHHHHH REAL STICKY AHHHHH” and all about weed and stuff.
@zachbryan505 I thought you were the real one for a sec and I got so happy
@zachbryan505 well if that’s true then it is so nice that you responded, you are a massive inspiration for me and you are so good at everything you do. Thank you for your service
Same brooo😭
He's always either sweatin' his ass off, or playing where it's so cold you can see his breath. One day he's gonna be able to play in a comfortable temperature and ain't gonna know what to do with himself.
😂 💯
I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed
@zachbryan505 you're a fake lol
Welcome to living in a place that is real, raw, and unforgiving. This is why we chose to live in places with Pine trees, and all of the seasons. You wont know what your missing until you experience it.
“You are neither hot nor cold and since you are luke warm I shall spew you from my mouth” -Bill the Butcher Cutting
This song saved my life. I’m 27 days sober and I never thought I would be here. I’m starting to love my self again and taking care of my body and health. Thank you Zach for this song. I feel every word
Glad to hear that, keep going man!
keep it going pimp, you deserve it.
Interesting, my friend Chris who was an addict for probably a decade or more, is just shy of 3 years sober, after dying from OD 3 times in a year a lone. He's got a successful detail company here and is doing amazing. You will as well. Keep at it.
52 days strong
I wish you the best brother! Keep up that attitude of yours and do what is best for you.
I’m about 36 hours sober and I’m going through it chills, hot flashes, body aches, stomach pain. My dad died a year and 4 months ago. I squandered all his wealth on drugs and booze. Over 250k went to “friends” (drug dealers) I’ve tried snow, ice, H, fentanyl, THC concentrate, psychedelics if you name it and if I could get my hands on it, I’d do it. I got off everything last September still was madly depressed but at least I was clean that is until I went to a gas station and found 7OH pills. I was doing over 800mg a day just to numb the pain. However Jesus found me, I wasn’t looking for him that’s for sure. He showed me love when I didn’t deserve it. Now I’m not a holy roller bible thumper. I was just show Jesus’ love and I was in awe. That was months ago, I chalked it up to brain chemicals needing me to feel loved because I had every intention of ending my life that day. I don’t know why I’m on this world, and kids die of cancer. Other than life isn’t fair, you got to try everyday to be better. I hope this sobriety sticks this time. I’m out of options.
Keep at it, you got this.
Stay positive, and keep that mindset that got you through those 36 hours… it won’t be easy. But nothing in life that worth it is easy. ❤ sorry for your loss.
You got this homie. And just know that if you do stumble and fall down again, you are not starting from zero. It's not something to beat yourself up over. A previous version of you never thought you'd be able to be sober for 36 hours. And you proved that MF'er wrong. Yea, you might have slipped, but now you have a record to beat, and you also have the opportunity to identify what went wrong and do better from then on out.
The best route from point A to point B is very rarely a straight line.
If you ever need someone to talk to that's completely anonymous and will not judge you at all, shoot me a message. I'm always willing to talk. And it won't be from someone preaching from a high horse that has no idea what you've experienced. I haven't been there like you have, but I have indeed been there. Sometimes all it takes is a second voice from a stranger. It's honestly better that way. Full honesty without any judgement or biases. We are both just words on a screen to each other.
I wish you all the best regardless, and I hope this new year is a year of wisdom and bounty for you.
@Dirtydangles1895thanks bro, I appreciate the words
hope you're doing well homie.
5 days sober from pain pills. Something about your music made me change my life. THANK YOU ZACH BRYAN. Stay pure.
Hope you're still doing good man
happy 1 year sober.
@preston1201 fax
How u doing
I'm still sober! I think it took about 18 days of withdrawals. It was hard but so worth it! Thanks
Spent some time with this dude in the Navy and knew he was special the moment i met him
Keep on keeping on, brother - J
We don’t get to meet people quite like this in the Corps lol.
@haydenterrell96 oh yes we do.
@haydenterrell96I don't know man, jumping onto barracks mattresses from potentially fatal heights and walking away unscathed takes some talent (Doc here)
Thank ya for your service everyone who has served in this comment section
@keudoush5307 I'll 2nd that and say this song is one hell of a 19th birthday present
Previous generations had Waylon Jennings, Haggard and Willie Nelson. We’ve got Tyler Childers, Colter Wall and Zach Bryan. And it’s through these guys country music lives on through the ages
Dont forget about Sturgill! 🤘
@aprilhil and Cody !
Bingham and Sawmill Joe
Add lost dog street band to that group
And Cole Chaney
Been struggling with weed for 8 years and I’m 23 trying to reclaim myself day by day no matter how many times I have to try again. I won’t quit.
Same age same battle. I believe in you. I type this whole smoking my supposedly last joint. Whoever says it's just weed are assholes. Keep strong brother ♥️
While*
@reddoorproductions5470hope your journey gets better bro, I’ve been quitting and relapsing the past month but still not giving up , god speed bro
This kid sings songs that are so beautiful it feels like he has a wisdom you don't gain through age. There's something more to him
I wish my husband would've heard this song and held it dear to his heart. We just said our final goodbye to him yesterday as he succumbed to his demons. The hardest thing me and our kids will ever face. My son turned me onto Zach Bryan and he's all I've listened to. His music resonates with my soul. ♥️ I know you're finally at peace My Love 💗😘.
l agree with you, indeed Zach Bryan is a great and
talented artist who's songs never goes out of style,
he's one of my favorites artist, he's songs still and
always heals the Soul..
Keeping you and your family close in prayer. 🙏
My 1st husband died of an o.d. in 2009. The week of our only child’s 14th birthday. She hadn’t seen him in a year. I’ll never forget the 3am knock at my door with my brother and father giving me the news. And the longest 6hrs of my life waiting for our daughter to wake up to give her the news by myself. Something died in me that day. Bless you and your family. There is hope and healing in each new day ahead I promise.
@stemartin6671I wanted to say something like this but I know I can’t say it any better than you have so I second this comment ❤
I'm so sorry
As a psychotherapist who works with folks who struggle (all of us), this song is so damned honest it takes my breath away. Thanks, Zach. You nailed it.
Thank you for what you do ❤
@OneGrlRevolts You're welcome. I love my work.
Yes! 💯im also a psycho (therapist) 😅 and I had same thoughts! 🤟
As a person who went went to EMDR therapies for almost a year maybe they need to hear this song.. it would help me (the more emotional one) a freaking lot
Hey what do you think about Carl jung
Man, I'm just saying... yall kill it. Love everything about this song. I'm so glad it came up on my RUclips suggestions. I'll admit, thr first couple of times it came up kept wondering why this stuff was on my phone bc I have a hard time accepting music sometimes even I feel like I didn't ask for it. I miss radio lol. I used to hang to learn to songs. Either way, I don't remember remember which time it happened but I fell in love with your tunes. Its a double edged sword to really feel your music. lol. Cuz it's not a glamorous life. But I thank God you're here and your have your talents. To me, poetry is easier to take when it has tunes and a rhythm and beat. And I just love the shit out of the blues. So, so fn glad you're here. And that you put yourself out here. Your stuff is healing some things in me right now the I didn't know could be saved. Again, motherfucking Thank You. Salute 🍻
Hello Lindsey 👋 , how are you doing today?
9 months sober here. Fighting for my daughter everyday along with going to school to become a lineman. This song hits hard sir. Thank you.
You are the man, Clay. God bless you, brother.
@dtisdale88 thank you sir
what a testimony! proud of you, keep fighting.
You’re the American story, we’re all behind you man. Godspeed and hope y’all are well.
You got this 🤜🏻🤛🏻
This song is so creative. At first I thought it was a love song, then I thought it was a song about his best friend, but it turned out to be about him. So great, I love this song already.
deep
Leave it to Zach to do that. The kid is decades beyond himself in wisdom and words.
Any song is about what you can relate to brother. All his songs are different considering the individual that is listening. Zach4President 2024
I think maybe it’s actually about all of the above
I feel like such an idiot I have heard it 30 times and didn't put that together or really listen til' I read ur comment XD.
The emotion he puts into all of his songs is truly why he is my favorite artist. Plus all of his amazing songs.
Couldn’t have said it better
Agreed brother
Agreed
you can feel it when he sings just an incredible artist and will always be one of my favorites
You can almost tell how much he means it by the bloodshot in his eyes
“So dont be cruel, and play God with all his plans”💙
Oh man. First time hearing this song. I'm getting teary eyed sitting in my car waiting for the gym to open. I'm late to the Zach Bryan party, this kid's top notch 💪👊
I'm 85 days clean and my daughter told me to listen to this song
Keep fighting for your daughter 🙏🏼
Your hers again
Keep strong ❤
My 21 year old niece got married last weekend. Her brother danced the father daughter dance with her in my brother's honor to Old Man. I'm still crying.
Zack plays for the boys. He speaks for us that can’t😕
30 years of addiction and I'm " mine again "...my daughter sent this to me after not talking to me for almost 2 years. Thank you God, thank you for this song...the truth in it is undeniable. 💯
This man is Godsent. I believe that wholeheartedly.
😭💔😖
Got that right, pure soul , pure talent.
Best song I've heard since elvis/johnny cash ...your truly great, just like them zac.
❤
Wow❤
It’s 2024. I’m sitting on my porch on the stoop watching cars go past outside my trailer. I’m halfway through my dishes and I know this song is old but just so so good. That being said I’m drinking miller highlife and Evan Williams and I could not be happier with finding who I am. At 22 I swore I was gonna delete myself, 2 years later I have a place to call my own in a town that keeps me out of trouble. I can’t appreciate this song enough for speaking to me in a way for me to be happy with where I am. I love it.
That's soo crazy I'm sitting on my porch of my single wide trailer watching cars go by on my third beer listening to this song...
I’ve come back to this song during my breakup. I’m at my absolute lowest. I’ve started drinking whiskey again . I’m drinking rumple again… I am single and in a town I love. But now it all makes me think of him… so I will stay here but craft my own experience aside from him….
This song hits me so hard and deep. I’m 46 now but got sober at 31. That was the best decision I’ve ever made because it allowed me the chance to become the dad for my kids that my own dad couldn’t be for me growing up. . .
I got goosebumps and impulse to almost let one tear out. You did something outstanding greater than your primal urge. Outstanding individual, good on you.
@Rob_0-4 Thanks, man 👊
Right on brother.. I was 30, now 53.. kids have never seen my lit.. Blessing!
@JamesWark-pn1po Such a blessing! Well done brother!
Absolutely beautiful ❤ don't ever change a thing!!!! You are truly talented ❤️ 💖 ✨️
Hello Maria 👋 , how are you doing today?
Struggling through addiction with my husband. Doing my absolute best to be what he needs right now. I cannot wait until he’s on the other side of this and he can know this feeling!!!!
I was homeless for 2 and a half years now I'm married and have a family I hope he gets past it we're so much more than addicts were husbands fathers carpenters MMA fighters welders fishermen and preachers are worst moments don't define us i pray for you
@wesleyhart9466that’s why I’m here! I know he’s strong enough for o overcome this and I want to be the one by his side when he gets everything he ever dreamed of ❤ thank you for your kind words
I do too
I swear there's times listening to your music I'd swear you're as broken as I am.
This is art. Anyone 2025!?
What beautiful soul. he embodies transparency and reflection.
🎶🎵🎶
“You are mine again, every mistake that you made, all the people that you saved that took a little piece of you with them
You are mine again, and I’m so damn glad your here, talking sober, calm and clear like you couldn’t back then
How many sad songs it take, to get your stubborn ass awake, what finally got you rising from your bed
Was it the sunset on her cheeks, leading down to a delicate collar bone, or the judgement of your mind when you’re alone
Mine again, my fondest friend where the hell you been
I’ve been struggling to get back to you
If you fight all night I’m sure you’ll gain the guts to try
To get past the things that you’ve been through
Cause no one plays the fool quite like you
Are those tires you got still turning
Is that spirit you had still burning
Do you still talk that shit like you did before
All the women and the wages and the wars that I’ve been waging, I just don’t feel like fightin’ anymore
Mine again, my fondest friend where the hell you been
I’ve been struggling to get back to you
If you fight all night I’m sure you’ll gain the guts to try
It ain't your fault what you’ve been through
Cause no one plays the cool quite the way you do
Mine again, so head back home to who you know you can
Mine again, don’t be so cruel and play God with all his plans
Mine again, my fondest friend where the hell you been
I’ve been struggling to get back to you
If you fight all night I’m sure you’ll gain the guts to try
It's not your fault what you’ve been through
No one plays it cool quite like you
Cause I am mine again. Every mistake that I’ve made and I ain’t ashamed to say who the hell I am
Cause I am mine again and I’m so damn glad I’m here talkin strong sober and clear like I couldn’t back then” ❤️
BRAVFUCKIN-O
And in the cold bleak winter night..Zach Bryan suddenly appeared once again to save us all
I feel this one brother
Right on 🤙
if only thats all we needed
and in the bleak midwinter...
Yessssss!!!
mine again hits so hard , I become mine again 12 years clean nd sober
I'm not even sober while listening to this, and my 16 year marriage fell apart somewhere along the way. Staying in an Airbnb and hoping life looks up soon.
4 years. No dope or pills. I am mine again
🎉amen. That is too bad ass! Keep it up... ❤
Hell yeah brother, stay strong my friend I'm proud of you
Hell yea brother, keep it up. Glad to have you back!
Proud of you.
Never look back! Good for you
I'm from a small town in Oaxaca, Mexico, and I'm 19. I'd love to have friends to listen to these songs with.
If this don’t sober me up nothing will
Zach If you haven’t lived threw a very heavy struggle with addiction, I assume someone very close to you did... God bless brother
Cory, you keep you sober... day by day or minute by minute sometimes. That's what it will always take my friend. I know. Songs like this and individuals like him will give us some of those minutes everyday and sometimes the minute is all we can ask for... not a day not a week not a year. One minute, 10 minutes, and in our journey as we cross paths with things , people, and music that give us those minutes they move us to stand there and not step back. They give us a stillness of strength and satisfaction. It's a damn good feeling isn't it. In that we get those minutes that I think most don't get. You found a way to hold onto some minutes.. keep it and use it. He won't mind I'm sure and if he does who gives a shit. You get the respect from your self for your sobriety any day your sober/clean. And he deserves acknowledgement for giving you the minutes he gave you towards that day. I did and do the same. And he gave me a few damn good minutes today. Just remember man. You're not alone, and you got this(sobriety) as long as you have tools like this to help. So do I
I hope and pray you got sober Cory
4+ years since he dropped this video is insane to me. This is the Zach everyone wants. I don’t hate his new music, but I feel like it’s just not the same. This is fucking raw.
This man is playing 3 instruments at once. Legend in the making. Keep pushing out the bangers Zach.
I know you just released an ep but I can’t wait for the next album
Frrrr my most hyped upcoming album
He is a rising star
facts
Knowing Zach, he'll drop that next album in a few weeks. haha. He never sleeps!
@ComedyBros5 📠
I’m going to get sober because of this song
Dude I relate to this song hard core. I got clean Oct 20, 2024 n this song brought me to tears when I hear it bc it just hits home to me. You got this bro, if I can do it u can to and I’m nothing special. Do it dude before it’s too late. You got this bro! 😊
Hope ur there man. Stay strong
U got this my brother
Helped me a ton
SAME I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING. I HOPE MY LOVER GETS THE SAME FEELING FROM THE SONG
Hopefully you know this song has helped people, myself included, to change their lives. Thank you.
The tears came pouring out this morning after your words came through the speaker. You me & we have all been through our hardships military or not. We all have & share pain….”after the rough spots in life, they kinda just have to call them selves theirs again. Know that no matter what. They can always go back to who they were” god bless you brother. Thank you for sharing your pain with us so we can all know we aren’t alone. Also for showing us when we are rock bottom, we can tie our boots up get back on our feet. Love ❤ “Well I am mine again. Every mistake that I made
And I ain't ashamed to say who the hell I am” !!! 3-15-2024
My parents were drug addicts and alcoholics my whole life until I was over 20 and they finally got sober and now we are talking everyday and I’m just so thankful to have them back despite all we’ve been through. I think we all blame our parents for their faults but at some point you realize we are all humans and no one is even close to perfect. I’m just so damn glad you’re hear...talk sober calm and clear like you couldn’t back then
I'm 15, My dad died when I was 10 around December 5th 2018, that one was a hard pill to swallow, I've been dealing with stuff similar except my parents kind of pushed the limit to how much they could do, My mom currently doesn't talk to me, but this kind of music really does help me, I can go on without the one parent I have left, or with her It doesn't matter how I'll pull through some how.
@thesinistersiege589 I hope you are doing good....I have a 16 y/o daughter that lost her dad 3 years ago to addictions...I'm sure you have a great purpose in this world and I'm sorry you had to go through that so young...I send you love, light and hope
0:03 after battling with alcohol addiction for many years I finally with the Lord health was delivered, and my son sent this song to me and told me that he was proud of me. Sio it means a whole lot to me.
Honestly, this is one of my favorite songs. I can't thank you enough for putting my feelings into words. Just thank you❤
The true judge of a song is in its comments section. And if you just read through 5 comments, it’s undeniable that this song resonates with people. Special song
Not gonna lie, this song makes me sob. I’ll be screaming these lyrics until I can truly mean them. Gotta get back to who I am, someway, somehow. This sounds a little dramatic but your music has truly saved me this year. Thank you.
They say it’s one day at a time , but sometimes you just gotta take it one minute at a time … one foot in front of the other . You’ll get there !
I feel this
You couldn’t have said more!! The positive energy that is felt with the lyrics and the sound makes me too want to keep moving forward in a positive movement of life!
This is the best version of this song available to your ears
Thank you for the incredibly happy memory. Ive listened to this song more than 100 times getting myself back up off the floor and back to living, experiencing things I only dreamed about... but tonight, I noticed the Bronco. My Father who taught me to be my biggest cheerleader, drove a red one. Thank you again.
One of his most underrated songs
I'm so fucked up on that person I thought this song was about getting them back 😂😂it's about getting yourself back and I only realized it today. A new day.
That's what counts ....learning to love yourself &:forgiving yourself
Oh my God. I almost wish I didn't read this comment because I still didn't pay attention to the beginning. But I'm sure I needed to hear it.....
Is no going to mention what appears to be a mint 1988 bronco in the background .... nice
Gotta shake that frost off your bones after sobering up. Thank your father in Heaven for every breath you take and new day you are given. Love you all and pray that all that read this may be free of the demon of addiction and every negative or harmful though may be held captive in the name of Yeshua of Nazareth ❤️✝️🤙
Wow. Just wow. Thank you, Zach. You lay it bare like many cannot. It means a lot to this nobody.
What a song. What a message. What a feeling. Thanks for helping me believe in myself. In who I am.
Someday….. I’ll fly away O’Glory, I’ll fly away! Thank you Jesus!
Spent years depressed, wasted my life away doing odd jobs to survive, barely scraping by. One day I decided to man up, pursued education while working full time, exercised almost every day to get fit, got off alcohol and cigarettes. Now got a degree, a good job and fitter than I've ever have been. I always listened to this song hoping it would be me one day. I'm glad it did.
Back. God bless you all❤
My dad sent this to me and told me how proud of me he is 🥺
You've got a good dad😄
damn wish mine did that
@Dlsdane I’m sorry I’m sure he is proud of you even if he hasn’t said it to you
@Dlsdane I’m proud of you man.
Dane Givens me too brother ✊🏽
Haven’t picked up my guitar in over a year. This is the first song I played last night. 3 years sober September 1st and better than I’ve ever thought I could be. Listening to Zach everyday for the past few months has truly brought into perspective that it’s not just me. Thank you for that👊🏻
Same here. I'm about to be four years sober and this song is a good reminder as to why I don't go back. Keep it up!
@mynamesjudge you too bro👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
Congratulations on your sobriety ❤
@mynamesjudge awesome
happy 4 years man❤️
Hey Sean
I’ve been loving this song for years now. It always puts my heart and mind into a peaceful perspective. Appreciate You!
Almost a year ago I was 11 months sober. Sad to say I’m not anymore but wish I would’ve stayed connected to my groups and sponsor. God what I would give to go back and change the decisions I made.. maybe one day again.
"It ain't your fault what you been through", sometimes we need to hear that.
💯
You are right about that I should be thinking like that but I didn’t realize until now that everyone was looking at this like a group counseling session I think that’s fuckin awesome
Except that it probably was
@brandonpettigrew1818 the fucks wrong with you? Not everything you go through in life is your fault
Yes!
never smashed a like button so hard.
The first time a I heard this song, I dreamed of my dad & I singing it together one day. He was in and out of prison, AA & NA my whole life. It was always something. Inevitably he would stumble, fall, and just stay down. You finally learn to stop begging them to please get up again. Finally at 62 he was clean, for almost a year. A series of events left him homeless, but I was just on the verge of allowing him into my life again. It felt safe to extend my protective boundaries. That’s when I got the call. He’d passed. Heart attack. Coroner told me he had no substances in his system. Which made me proud and absolutely heart broken at the same time. It just felt so unfair. Right when there was finally hope. He might be gone, but to me, that’s temporary. I still day dream about the day we’re reunited, the day when finally all his demons are gone and he can be the man he was supposed to be, and damnit we are GONNA sing this song together. I can’t wait 💜
What a story. In some weird way, your dad having a hard life, helped you have a better life and showed you right versus wrong. All the best to you and your future.
I’m sorry, this disease is so sad. I loved it. Sorry about your pops. D
You’re so good, I’m trans, I can’t go back, wish I could get back what I’ve lost. I can’t finally look at myself in the mirror but there’s only one reflection, 3 are missing and they took my heart with them.
black guy here! 35 years old and im also a zach bryan fan i live in vegas now but im from alabama and let me tell you its songs like this - CONDEMED and "open the gate" that can bring us all together. i can wait unitil he comes to vegas in a couple months because this city needs his energy and soul right now:0 you the man ZACH!!!

Did you make it to the show Wayne??
@mbuck253 yes sir at t mobile..so good
That piece of property is what I consider perfection. Once I’ve got that, my life will be complete
Same. I’ve been searching comments trying to find the area it was filmed
@dylancisneros7321 it’s Wyoming I think
I saw on his Instagram post he pinned that it was the north cascades in Washington
@dylancisneros7321 can confirm this definitely looks like the north cascades of Washington. Source: I live in and travel around a hell of a lot of Washington

Im In rehab. And this song has been something I looked forward to since before I chose to get sober. And now. It means even more being able to truly be mine again. @120days sober.🎉
Totally get it! Congrats
God Bless you and continue to walk that path! You will not regret it!
As a black woman, I cry listening to this. So vulnerable and powerful
I never comment on songs, But all I have to say is this speaks to me on a different level. My older brother was addicted to pills since 8th grade. Before then me and him were best friends. We had nothing but trust and love for each other. Once his addiction took over I lost him as brother, as a best friend. I couldn't trust him. After his overdose my father, sisters and little brother decided to send him to live with our grandparents. He's been sober for 2 years now. we're getting back to how we were when we where younger. I missed this version of my brother. I'm sitting here crying while I'm writing this. I'll never be sure if Zach will read this. But thank you for helping me through this year.
When covid is over ill be in the front row of your concert.
Blessings are everywhere
Listen to get out alive
Rediscovered this song after relapsing pretty hard and going on a bender. This song hits different after something like that and is a beautiful reminder that I can chose to fight to be who I used to be. I can be mine again. Its not too late. At least thats what im trying to believe this morning! God help me
40 yrs old I am. And I’m going to start learning guitar next week as a result of this video.
How is your progress now after 2 months?
@FGS-yk3vc slow and steady. Have a guitar looking for a good teacher. Lessons are hard to come by with COVID right now. Been plugging away just watching RUclips videos.
@KAmStAng
Ayyy
Keep it up
how are you doing after 2 years
This song gave me the strength to get counseling. I was living a half life after serving as an ICU nurse during the pandemic, experiencing a traumatic birth, subsequent PTSD and postpartum anxiety all in the same year. I wasn't myself, was drinking too much and disconnected from my son and husband, and the first time I heard this song I broke down sobbing. I hope you're reading this and know that you gave at least one person the strength to change their life. After a long road of counseling, a job change and medication I recognize myself again and I couldn't be more thankful
I’m glad you’re here ❤️ congrats on all your progress
Reading your situation, has given me strength. Thank you. And thank you, as well, for your service during an extremely tough and horrible time. You are a survivor and I want to be like you. Hugs
I keep replaying the beginning. You’re such a great writer and you’re helping so many people you have no idea so many people can relate to exactly what you’re saying and you have no idea how bad I needed this thank you.
My prayers at for you to keep singing you help me get three my hardest times
Yes sir
Thanks Zach! I’ve came home from Iraq a different person 20 years ago. I’ve used the most unhealthy coping mechanisms imaginable and became comfortably numb. I’m not sure if it’s the fact that it’s been 20 years or something else but Im getting better. Feeling feels good again even when it hurts.
What a phenomenal back drop you have. I am years removed from life in Oregon. Pieces of my heart are all over that land. I was so far gone for ao many years. This song is so relateable. I appreciate your transparency, truely. Thanks for sharing bits of your soul with us.
Immediately clicked when I saw notification. Always lives up to expectation
He dosent miss
@louisammicutter4056 never
Me too yo. Love this guy.
Same
3 years tomorrow my mom died, I feel this song.
You have changed my life!!! ❤just to believe that as fuck’d up as we are, we can always rise from your bed, cuz sometimes I just can’t….
Great song 🎶 still here in May 3 2025.
June 25
Zach, I hope you know God sees how many people that your gift has reached and changed there lives! Never underestimate your gift brother! That 30 mins you thought wasn't good enough....it was perfect brother!
Im so happy we have these intelligent folks making country music again. Not poser conservative bro country bullshit. Taking it back to the Cash and Jennings days.
Hey, so I damn near bursted out crying when you said, “It’s not your fault, what you been through.” 😭 Thanks
Zach- Marine Corps Vet and alcoholic. As I work on living sober, this song means a lot to me. Your music has helped me heal. And for that I want to say Thank You!!
Your music is getting me through a really dark time in my life right now
Keep your head up and keep moving forward! You have much more to give that the world needs in someway!!!
Same here Joe
You are not alone, for we all face darkness and saying it is the beginning to seeing a light, like hearing this song it helps as it helps to know you are not alone
Keep listening to good music with true messages.... and keep God close to your heart. The difference He has made in my life is unreal.... and He has never asked me to be perfect...just be myself, cause that's how He loves us.
How's it going after 2 years pal?
Damn this kid is good.
This version of the song is my absolute favorite!! I am almost 11 months sober, and this song is amazing!!!
Are you kidding me Zach Bryan where have you been my entire life brother your music is food for the soul just raw real authentic great lyrics great voice thank you for your service in the Navy but even more thank you for finding country music industry don’t ever change we love you for you
Totally agree with you ❤
Truth
Absolutely agree with Chris!
I might be just a stranger from the internet but damn I am proud of you. I once lost a good friend of mine to drugs first as a person then he lost his life you did it right keep going brother
Get this man everything he wants and deserves ASAP
This is the version that should be on Apple Music….. it’s real…. The other is a poke at folk
If he only knew how many times he has stoped my 2 year old from crying God bless this man
There are 2 songs on my 11 month olds bedtime playlist. Porchlight and something in the orange. She falls asleep so fast to either one. Maybe conditioning but on a 7 day roadtrip it also calmed her down the moment we would put them on. Music made traveling with an 8 yr old and an 8 month old more then bearable.
when will this man have a mini concert i would for sure go see him.
He’s done a few. He’s in the navy so it’s hard for him to do shows consistently.
@GradyRho92 didn’t know that, great info, wow what a dude, truly a person of shiny stars and colours a real soul finally, and service for the country a Hero among them all to cool
He could do an online concert I’m sure we all buy tickets
@chewd329 he’s done a bunch of virtual shows. He just did a few at the space needle about a month or so ago and it was awesome. Go to his website for show info.
@tyrenaud4982 way to cool really appreciate you taking the time to let me know, not a lot so appreciate a ton
I heard this song for the first time in June. I was at my lowest and struggling with alcoholism. It truly helped me to find my path to sobriety. I am finally mine again. Thank you Zach Bryan for all these beautiful songs!
Finally someone is unfraid to sing about and celebrate their precious flaws. You should too.
I hope Zach realizes how many people he has touched with his music. Sincerely. It’s helped me through a lot. Beautiful person, beautiful music.
This song is as beautiful as you are
I am mine again. Beautiful. Wise way beyond your age. Then again, life can do that to a person.
My sweet son sent me this because he wants me to do better for me and he loves me tons!! LUVU 2
Always, mother. Love ya too
