@@markmcginley559 any time. I mean it.. if you’re struggling, you need to know that you are worthy of sobriety, worthy of love, happiness and peace inside. You’re not alone💕✨
I remember sitting in my room listening to this on repeat.. contemplating a shot I could never survive. I am over 5 years clean today by the grace of God. ❤ Don't ever give up!
Good for you my man its a way better life once you can get through and believe. Hardest downfall i had too get through as well you ever need anyone i got you.
Still completely sober, I'm a grandpa now of 2 at 43 years old, I have a great relationship with both my kids and their little ones, I lost everything, lived in a shed for a year. Today I have 100 times more than I ever had, thank you for asking 😊
Aum ppl dont care or even understand addiction I love this song myself ..im in recovery myself but once in a blue moon i find myself wanting to scratch an itch land i do then i leave it at that
8 months sober from fentanyl this month, I remember listening to this song while using and while withdrawing. Bawling my eyes out, begging myself to just stop. I want everyone to know sobriety is tangible and real, I believe in you and I love you so much. EDIT 10/31/23 I’m now 2 yrs and 5 months clean from fentanyl, so when I reinforce the promise that sobriety is real and tangible, I mean it with my entire soul. I have almost 70 days sober from all drugs bc although I gave up fent, I didn’t give up drugs. I’ll be getting a sponsor soon and I’m going to NA/AA meetings. We all deserve a beautiful future, I pray everyone single one of us make it there. You would and will be so missed if you lose your life to your addiction. I love you!! 🩷
That's awesome you kicked that shit. Seeing that others have made it through something that controls your life is inspiring. I myself still struggle and there's days it breaks me but I hope that one day I gain my freedom just as you have done. Keep up the good fight your amazing for that. God bless.
This is me now , on repeat . This song is so real. I got a flesh eating bacteria from shooting up heroin right now , well what I thought was heroin turns out it was synthetic heroin the drug krokodile. Being admitted this week, I may loose both my arms at 26 years old. Please keep me on your prayers . I keep telling myself I can do this .
Gravity Bear i will pray for you, you can do this we are strong. just remember how much effort you would put into finding connects putting together money and getting high, put all that effort into kicking
This song gets me everytime with tears. Exercising the demons is a daily struggle. Losing battles but still winning wars. 🙏🙏 For those of u that r still fighting its worth it.
Yeah heroin is the fucken devil I'd like to brat the ones that get them addicted just because it does nothing but take your body pain its the worst to kick ever I pry for and everybody addicted to the dogfood I had love ones girlfriends get turned out on it and its no good tear you apart and they act like your nothing to them anymore
Heroin is a joke these dealers slowly poisoned people with new drug that kills you faster even if your not legally dead your dead inside fentanyl has tooken everything I have and more and I don't have much more to live for wish I could od it never seems to happen even if I try to do it I keep waking up still here must be a reason behind it still struggling daily with my addiction hope it takes me soon enough
To all of you fighting the battle I will pray for you. Was shooting dope for 8 years finally clean got 200 days. No suboxone or methadone did it cold ass turkey in rehab. this song helps me through a lot of dark days. God bless anyone suffering I’m always here to listen if anyone needs an ear I know it can get dark at times.
Damn cold turkey? See that’s my weakness. I’m rockin that methadone program but it saved my life so screw the stigma, right? I commend you for the suffering you went through, it makes my heart heavy just to imagine you…goin thru all all that sickness & emotions then here comes months of that post detox clean life shock. I have confidence that I’ll be off the pink cuffs in my future but until that day comes- I’m gonna be grateful for whatever it takes to keep me away from those needles. My friend (that I cannot pull outta her toxic life) recommended this song to me. At first I said hell no cuz I’m a Eminem fan & ya know… but I do like the lyrics. It’s crazy how we (addicts) have so much in common- I have several journals & I remember writing a love letter to dope then a “You are my only friend, I know that you will always there” entry to a “if you had a heartbeat I would kill you” death threat letter to poison! I’m actually about to lay down & go to sleep thankful that I don’t have to wake up & worry about scoring. I’m going to work from 6:30pm-7am. Lol, that’s how I spend my late nights now. STAY PROUD OF YOURSELF!!! You inspire more ppl than you know.
I did the same thing no subs or methadone either. Going on 60 days. It’s so hard and I still crave it so much. I hope it gets easier cause I’m still craving it so bad and my anxiety is still really bad. I can’t get my heart and racing thoughts to calm down. I can’t do 1 day at time. I have to do it 1 minute at a time. I wish I could get my anxiety to calm down.
I'm 32 days clean and sober off heroin. I beat addiction without professional help and haven't had any cravings or relapses. Thank God I'm mentally strong enough to beat it. Ever since I have quit cold turkey, everything in my life has gotten so much better and looking up. I will NEVER go back down that road. I definitely take it as a lesson learned and only moving forward in life. Anyone who is battling addiction right now, you can beat the battle if you really set your heart and mind to it. I will be praying for you. EDIT: I’m still going strong on being clean and sober. I will be a year clean next month, July 27th, 2018! Soooo proud of myself!
I haven’t listened too this in years while I was using myself, listening too it now with years clean..just reminds me that it truly takes everything down too your soul from you.
32 now, been on opiates since 23 after a surgery on my balls. Haven't even went home in almost that decade, cuz im scared the fetty n opiates wont be as good or in abundance like they are here. Stuck in Cincinnati chasing this shit, only place I'd considered moving to was Philly, its cheaper. Closer to Johnson and Johnson and ports... Sad. I dont even get high anymore, its just being sick is not a option.!!
@@kierstenlynn123 thank you so so very much!!!! I truly appreciate you commenting more than words can explain. THANK GOD I am still clean from opiates/crack but unfortunately I relapsed on meth and GHP and was on life support from the GHP overdose. God has truly watched over me for so many years & has continued too and I’m back on the right path. I SEND YOU SO MUCH LOVE, POSITIVITY AND HAPPINESS! XOXOXO
THIS SONG IS THE REASON WHY I GOT OFF HEROIN,SOOO INTENSE BUT YET WITH SOOO MUCH PURPOSE...THOSE LYRICS IS THE MAIN & ONLY REASON WHY I GOT CLEAN & STILL CLEAN,9MONTHS & COUNTING✊✊💯 THANK U MGK😘
This song gives me goosebumps. You can feel the pain and frustration in his voice. How can something that makes you feel so ugly on the inside, be transformed into such beauty? This is lyrical art
I didn't get addicted to drugs, but I'm 8 months and 17 days clean from self harm. Might not mean much to anyone, but means so much to me. EDIT: wow the love I got on this a year ago is insane you guys are so sweet :((( As of now I’m 7 months and 15 days clean, thank you to everyone for being so reassuring and supportive 😭💕💕💕
This song has both pushed me through my darkest moments, when I was at my lowest but also helped inspire me towards sobriety. It’s been over two years since I’ve last listened, over two years since I achieved sobriety. I will forever be grateful for that
Still one of the most powerful songs I’ve ever heard. Hold your head up high and know u have the power within you to beat addiction. Praying for us all.
Starting rehab next week... scared shitless I don't even remember what it's like to be sober. I've been doing this shit since 16 now I'm 26. Please send your prayers and please wish me luck. I know I have a rough road ahead but I'm praying i can get through...
Noeleen Foor At first its really hard but after awhile it almost feels like you can breath again.. Im not sober rn kinda relapsed really fuckin hard. You can do it I remember being scared of sobriety.. Fuck ive smoked pot and used pain killed everyday since age 13.. Im now a 20 year old IV heroin user in and out of jail
very proud of you...day by day thats all...eventually it will be a memory...but ALWAYS keep that memory to remind you of what your capable of...sending love
5 years clean off heroin It's A Hard Road but it's so worth it, I've had pop so many possibilities and doors open for me since I've been clean and people see me making an effort to do the right thing and change my life do good good gravitate towards you, you got this
you are stronger than you realize and you will make it through this!!! please dont pick up!!! my inbox is always open if you ever need someone to talk to!
I've always been seen as the weak one due to my sexual orientation I had bo support and I did you got this everythings a choice choose to live even if it sucks for a while and it will time will heal you
My wife passed away on July 26th 2020 from heroine she shot up and when I woke up I found her on the floor dead and this was her favorite song and now I’m a survivor from meth
Melanie Ferrel keep fighting the fight!! I'm 6 days clean from.both.... I did it all cold turkey... sick as hell... would rather of died than to experience the pain....
To all of you lost in addiction I promise you’ll make it out just believe in your self. I’m 7 years clean from it and this song helped me so much please please believe y’all can do it man I promise
This was my life for SO long. 9 years sober this September. I lost so much, but ended up gaining so much more than I had. When it gets hard, and trust me, it gets HARD some days even some weeks at a time; I think about everything that I have gained that I don't want to lose. To everyone out there struggling, you got this! If I can do it, so can you!
I’ve got 60 days. I’m still struggling so much. Mainly my anxiety. I hope it gets easier. I’m a wreck still’, I can’t do 1 day at a time. I have to do it 1 minute at a time. it’s so hard. Hardest thing I’ve ever went through and I’m still going through it. My anxiety is so bad like I said.
@@bradysammons you've got this! The anxiety was one of the hardest parts for me and it still is. I believe in you!, if I can do it, trust me, anyone can! You're in my thoughts. (:
Prayers. Always remember no matter how much your addiction wants to trick you, WE DO RECOVER. I have 14 months sober after battling my addiction on & off for 10 years.
Im almost 3 years clean... for me to get clean it was just holding on to something positive like love for friends and family or boyfriend/girlfriend... have things to look forward to within the week... happy music that is easy to dance to and sing along... do the healthy things you love and youll be ok... everyday is a new day. I have this one bracelet i got from a hospital that says "One Day At A Time" I live by that.. i wear it everyday since 2017, just remember YOU ARE NOT ALONE AND HOPE IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER!!!!
This got me through my fentanyl, cocaine, Xanax, and opiate addiction when I started getting sober I’d cry to this song 2 times daily. I’m 2.5 years clean now.
I remember being in rehab and seeing the lyrics to his opening vers. just seeing the words was powerful but then I heard this song. this is one of the most real and meaningful songs I've ever listened to. his ability to personify addiction is spot on. I've heard music from other rappers that made me feel but this song gives me chills every time I hear it. addiction is lonely and mgk is able to remind that it may be lonely but you're not alone. I never speak of my addiction publicly but today I speak out, inspired by mgk, we are not alone. we fight this battle together. if you read this and feel lost just know, we can win, we can push for freedom from our drug. never give up and always remember our past is practice for a better future.
first post iv ever made on any public page( includeing Fakebook) the last sentence you said is something to live by man "past is practice for the future" it hit me hard.. things can always get better and unfortunately worse so keep trying for a better tommrow and it will come around ......good luck on ur rehabilitation man
I’ve been listening to this song since I was 15 and going through suicidal thoughts which lead to addiction to numb the pain. This song always hit home for me, especially after I became an addict and there are many nights I spent bawling to this song, it was one of the only things that would stop me from following through with suicide. MGK saved my life with this song, and even 11 years later this helps me stay strong in my sobriety
Now listening to this song, I understand who my brother had this song on repeat so much. He lost his battle to Heroin in 2016 I love and miss you Josh 💜💜
I've never had an addiction but I feel this song because my sister was addicted to heroin for 3-4 years. The drug caused her trouble like stealing from shops and family. It caused her to betrade family. She was never happy, she was always sick and numb. My sister went through 2-3 relaspes, but after the last one she went to rehab. Now she got her coin in January for 1 year sober. Now she's 1 year and 7 months. I'm proud of her and anyone who's beating these demons!!
+Blaze Daniels Ohh, heroin is a hard drug to stop. Where I'm at, there was 8-9 overdoses. Then another area closer to me, there where lots of overdoses because of someone selling a bad mixture of heroin. But anyway, I'm proud of you. it's really hard to beat addiction.
I overdosed more times than I can even count. Was homeless living in bandos and front porches. In the winter, in the rain, in the heat I was out there pursuing one more. I took her into my arms everyday for many years. Today I am 26 close to 27 months clean and have so much to live and love for, I was lost but now I am found. There IS a way out! If you are struggling inside that hell, reach out, get help! You don't have to live or die that way!🙏❤ God is so good!
Him recording this at such a vulnerable time. 😞 Sometimes I wish this song got more love but I think it's reached the people who have needed it most and appreciated by those who can relate to the struggle. EST4LIFE. 🖤
I'm winning 👍 off needles almost a year now, tapering off methadone now. Finally finished with the shit 100% Never thought I'd get this far, it's possible guys. If you want it enough, you will do it
Zack V 9 months sober and it’s the greatest feeling. Now it will not be easy but the fight is what let’s you know your alive each and everyday. It’s sobers why of saying you won’t beat me because this is now me.
I'm revisting this song just 10 days from 5 years sober. At the end of my addiction right before I decided it was time for a change this song really helped me even when I got sober revisiting this song reminds me how good I have it now. No matter how bad of a day I'm having.
I feel you 💔💯 I overcame my IV heroin addiction with a very high dose of methadone, but I still drink constantly. There is no pain like the pain of addiction 💔💔💔 I pray for you to find strength and a way out ❤️🙏
this song is one of the most amazing songs ive ever heard. the first time I listened to it, I cried. it touches me each time I hear it. thank you mgk, cin
Courtney, im so touched by your post. any of us that has or is going through this, would be moved by this song. I fell in love with it the first time I heard it. thank you for your honesty, good luck to u and your struggle, I feel your pain ♥
Ive been sober for 5 years and i cant play this song around anyone that has never been down this road. If i ever feel weak i play this to remind me where I was and where i am now. People can say what they want about MGK but he has saved many lives.
OMG this is the 1st time I have heard this song. I had to pause and just cry (brought back so many painful memories) it is so powerful I am not the addict but my brother was for years. And we watched him struggle for years and tried to help but were not successful. Watch my mom suffer knowing he was out there somewhere, we would help her search allies and crack houses for him secretly praying we would not find him dead she would not be able to handle that. He was so hooked he didn't care where the next high came from or what he had to do to get it. Thank god after realizing we would never give up on him he got sober its been 15 yrs now and I Thank god for that everyday. I hope this song continues to help people find the way to get help.
I'm not a typical MGK fan, I'm a 42 yr old mother of 3 but last year we lost everything in a fire and after 10 yrs clean I relapsed and wanted to give up. someone played this song for me and since then MGK, his music and his fans have gotten me through the worst days of my life. His songs and their messages of what he's been able to overcome transcend generations, race, gender and speak to human beings. his songs give us hope and the strength to make it one more day. thanks mgk
Yeah dropped the ball on benefiting off that Eminem beef. I was expecting something good and he drops that steaming heap of shit called Binge. I couldn't believe it.
was listening to this while i was using heroin, i am now 8 months clean and listening to this now breaks my heart. I pray for those who are still suffering
I get chills every time I hear this song. This life he speaks of aint no joke. My heart goes out to anyone who is strung out. If you are and you need talk shoot me a message. I'll be there to listen, talk, just be there. Everyone needs someone some time. We all have issues. We all have problems.
very proud of you...day by day thats all...eventually it will be a memory...but ALWAYS keep that memory to remind you of what your capable of...sending love
Tina McCormick .. I got five years clean off of heroin best thing I ever did like you I started at a young age and things spiraled out of control real fast. In and out of prison and just wasting my life, since I've been clean so much has changed for me life is just so much better sober. I wish you best wishes and a life for happiness keep up the good work much love and respect Ron
To everyone struggling with addiction, know you are worth something. You deserve a better life, it’s hard but you got to keep pushing on. I hope you win!🥺❤️
I’m 1 year sober after a long 15 year on and off battle. I should have died over 20 times but came back every time, and I don’t know why. His music is what helped me want to clean up finally. I don’t care what anyone else says about him or his music, he is one of the best artists in my eyes. He takes his pain and life experiences and turns it into something basically everyone can relate to. This song is one that explains it so others can somewhat understand the struggle of being an addict. Anyone who is still struggling and thinks they can’t change their life, it is possible. You have the strength and ability to do it, don’t give up. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
+Alexis Strother Good for her, it gives me hope when I read that there are other people who have managed to kick a meth habit...it seems like it's more rare to find ex meth users than it is for heroin. I got hooked 2 years ago and after my first time using it, I don't think I even tried to fight the urge to not be high 24/7... Here I am, 20 years old and struggling day by day to resist the urge to shove a needle in my arm. I think that realizing all of the damage I've done to all of my relationships with friends and family is worse than anything else... I've been clean for 25 days now... Slowly finding myself again.
I just hit my 1 year sober mark from meth and alcohol and i just found this song... mgk, your music has been something that helps me escape since i was 14 or 15. Im now 21, almost 22, and your music still gets me. I love your music and im glad i found this song
Use to listen to this regularly in the morning. During my wake up "get well" (5 years of that life 😞) I've been clean now for a little over 3 years and I still listen to this so I remember the desperation I felt in those mornings.
that's fkin awesome. me n my family tried to help my brother he was on his way to sobriety n then he just dipped. n is back to the dope. smh it sucks n its sad as fk. but when I here good shyt that ppl like u make out of that life. gives me a Lil bit of hope
As a recovering heroin addict, I can’t even explain the feeling this song gives me every time I listen to it. Through all the trauma I’ve experienced throughout my life, just like millions of other addicts, I accepted that the only way I was leaving this world was with a needle in my arm or in an ally way in the city. I accepted that I’d never amount to anything but a failure. But that all changed, & I’m beyond blessed that I was able to find hope, strength, & way out. My life is far from where I’d like it to be, but it’s a million times better then it ever was before. To all those out their struggling with _any_ type of addiction, you _are_ worth recovery, you _are_ a damn warrior, it _does_ get better, and you _CAN_ win this fight. I stay praying for the still sick & suffering. 🙏🏻
Thank you so fucking much for this man 😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏💔💔💔💔 this literally made be bawl more than this song. God bless you ❤️🙏 I hope one day I can help other addicts and give the advice in the same way you do. Please use your experience to bring other people out of this hell, you very clearly have the heart for it 💕💕💕💕
This song will always be my song...heroin ruined my life. I just could not get clean no matter how hard I tried. It took years and losing everything. My ex murdered our son and I just couldn’t imagine living without him. I am clean off the needle and heroin but still in methadone treatment. I do know that I never want to go back because it just wasn’t living. Everyday is hard without my son but I keep going.
This song hits me deep because I've been struggling with addiction since I was 15 and now I'm 45 and haven't made any progress as far as being clean and sober except for when I was in prison for 3 yrs keep making these songs to help us fellow addicts out from time to time
Jesse Kramer facts! But can be one of the most beautiful places if they would do something down there I blame the gov down there for letting it be that way
Four months sober from meth and heroin and all kinds of stuff I'm only nineteen and this song has helped so much to those struggling or sober be strong one day at time
I just lost my brother November 26 2016 because of her. He battled addiction on and off. This song really hits about the mind set and the price you pay to be with her. The pain is now gone from you but the pain lives on in us. FLY HIGH BROTHER till the day we meet again
Misguided Thoughts Sorry hear that bro.... I lost my big brother on June 5th 2017.... Its crazy man the 26th on Nov is my birthday. We both my brother and I struggled with addiction for long time.... my battle still rages on and i fight with the pain of loosing my best friend and brother everyday. Between loosing him and also four years ago in March my baby sister commuted suicide 3 days after her 20th birthday... This song hits home for me.... Just know he no longer lives in pain and that life is hard dark and lonely.... He went to a better place man...
Misguided Thoughts lost my brother January 2016 all due to drug addiction after years and years of use and neglect he finally left this world but now he isn't suffering
My condolences to all of you all it is hard to lose a family member especially when it's your best friend due to drug addiction. I always thought that I would never had to go through anything like this but I did I lost my cousin he was my friend my brother but now he's not suffering anymore but his family is still hurt again my condolences to everybody and God bless
it makes me feel a certain way to "like" this comment....im so sorry...i never thought id get to the point that i was and even though your brother sadly didnt make it....others like myself have...over and over again i tried and finally about to come up to my year of sobriety..in no fucking way does this take away from his struggle...its something NO ONE CAN RELATE to unless they have gone through it...im trying to say youve gained a guardian and trust me everyday he wanted to stop and quit but the physical pain and mental anguish is so over powering its hard to compare to anything else....may he rest peacfully...
That a long time man and no im not being sarcastic. Keep it up it gets easier and congratulations on your accomplishment you have made it this far don't turn back.
this song leaves me speechless and just hits home!!!!! 21 years old and im suffering a heroine addiction........ I remember back when I first felt the warmth rushing through my veins and that wonderful warm hug we all seem to love soo fucking much but hate at the same time,I knew right then and there that this was going to be an never ending LOVE HATE relationship!
I was a year and a half clean and i relapsed a week or so ago and now im sitting here trying to wrap my head around the love the love i have for something i hate so much .i want to stay sober forever for my family and it breaks my heart that i will suffer with addiction till i die.i have been on the needle for over 6 years now and nomatter how far i run it always catches me smh
It can end and if you don't believe in yourself believe that I believe in you I know you can do it because I did I wish you the best of luck honey it's a very rough road getting clean from heroin I have first-hand experience with that but it is possible and the hope and gratitude that I feel today is better than any shot I ever did
Man this song really hits hard. I battle addiction everyday and most people don't realize you become addicted to the needle too. But a week clean so far. Please pray for me.
Gets to a point where theres no other way to do it.. I found myself scrapping empty bags my used spoons and cleaning out my rig just to have something to shoot.
Katelyn Shipley nah, I was definitely addicted to the needle but the rush was #1, the actual ritual of copping/mixing a shot/hitting a pipeline was #2, the high was #3, and then the needle was #4 for me. I've found rigs and caps and even an unopened ten pack and just toss em away. Maybe it's because I'm on mmt but I feel nothing. But if I found a half gram of fire in my house.... That'd be hard. Thank God the 80mg of mdone would keep any rush or high away and I'm not trying to stay off the done long enough to hit wd just to get high. 2+yrs clean and not about to fuck up now
The difference between MGK is that while other rappers are encouraging drug use and selling drugs he is over here giving hope to those struggling with drugs and fighting the demons that come with the lifestyle, like me for example. So I personally really appreciate this song, its message and the emotion that he put into this song. Nobody wants to admit they have a problem never mind when millions of people are listening so this took courage. Thank you MGK and lace the fuck up bitchess!!! Ahhhhhhh!!!
Year and a half clean after an 11 year addiction, my little brother was still in the grips of it and showed me this song a few months back. He lost his battle on march 25th of this year, he was 4 months shy of his 28th birthday . God bless all of you currently going through the struggle that consumed my life for so many years, the same struggle that took my baby brothers life. You have a purpose, get clean and live your life; there is so much more out there for you.
That's that real shit. I honestly wish I would have heard this song years ago. Going through the heroin addiction was the roughest place in my life I can't look back and relate to so much MGK keeps real talk
4 years clean, from many different substances but it feels like just yesterday I was fighting a losing battle for years embarrassed and miserable hating my life and myself, relapse after relapse I couldn’t give it up. I honestly did not think I would make it out alive and sometimes I still wonder how I did, I must have had a guardian angel/my best friend in heaven looking out for me that’s for sure. Thank god somehow I became clean, with the help of god & my family.
Ooooof that's a good streak though but yeah I had to stop fucking with xans and fetanyl patches not just because I know they're a bad combo to mix but I've finally experienced what it feels like to OD and let me tell you.....I literally remember my roommate helping me revive by making me throw up and I just remembered waking up with a major headache and vomiting all over my self and just hearing her tell me what happened made me feel so fucking bad....I almost left my corpse and my dogs behind with my bestfriend....I felt that I disrespected enough to shut my ass down and let me say even til this moment I have urges
Bruh!!! I have a year today and today is the hardest its ever been! I fucking hate this shit! I was doing 6g's of fetti and a Tee of shit a day! I didnt start to kick for 15 days. And still thinking about that I just want a shot! Why h fuck do I love this needle.
Its been too long since I listened to this. Ive lost 2 younger siblings to addiction. MGK and my EST family has saved me and given me the strength to keep going. Thank you to all of you! If you are struggling with addiction just know you are worth getting clean for! You matter and are loved!
People that say MGK doesn’t have talent, doesn’t have skills, and came out with so much hate saying he isn’t any good after the Em diss, never heard songs like this.
the fight is hard but well worth it. trust me I have 1year clean and never felt so good in my life. the worse day sober is better than any day being high
day one important. but not any less important than every single day of kickin the shit. ive quit meth, heroin, jwh, alcohol, and ketamine. have fun with withdrawl play it like a video game. dont give
Used to listen to this as I was shooting up heroin, I was sad, lost and in a really dark place. By the grace of God I'm able to say I'm now 8 months sober and loving it! ❤️ We do recover.
Never heard this track until today, and this song hits home for me heavy. I'm currently trapped in the web of addiction right now with shooting dope and have been for 6 years. But I'm falling fast, I'm currently the worse I've ever been at the moment she has a hold of me tight right now yo. The sad part is that I know it, and I see the very dark path I'm heading down. I'm to the bottom of the barrel type shit right now and hitting rock bottom faster then I can stop. Losing friends and family members cause of my current state, and I feel helpless. So if anyone is battling addiction right now all I can say is good luck and try to stay positive, and take it one step and one day at a time. One love y'all.
Really hope you get out of that life style. Really wish the best for you. Lost my best friend to drug abuse. Praying for you, I know that shits hard to get off. I've had friends go down that road. And it hurts me to see them like that
Bro I completely understand. ..I found this song at rock bottom...couldn't find a good vein n my arm...I'm 45 days clean now...it's a every day struggle...it's don't know u but we r brothers of the needle...u can over come it...dope tells u ur weak..and u need it..but u don't. ..it's won't lie it won't be easy...but get help...and any help...i hate to advise substitutes..but a methadone clinic is better than dying with ur arm tied off it worked for me...it's was my last resort. ..but go to meetings...go to sober friends...admit to ur self ur powerless alone and give that shit up and trade for ur family friends and ur life...ur life is worth way to much...even to a stranger like me...I kno how dope is and I may be too late with this comment but I pray ur still with us and if nothing else at least trying to get clean...it'll be hard but YOU CAN DO IT...I HAVE FAITH IN EVERY ADDICT...take it one day at a time and if no one else u got a stranger from st.louis praying for u...and understanding ur pain...and knowing that u can beat this deamon....do it for ur self ...it's time we all put that needle down....one love..good luck and stay strong...peace brother
Steven Nalewicki how you doing now bro? I been where you are ive been clean few months and this song still brings me to tears. because i can remember being dope sick as fuck trying to ease the pain just sitting in a hot shower listening to it letting the water wash my tears away. damn man this song still hits me. i hope you got yourself some help because it does fucking getting better my man
It does get easier, but its gonna get worse before it will. I started shooting dope and within 3 months i lost 70+ lbs, me and my best friend were fist fighting everyday because we had been up for a month, I was stealing from my family, and I was constantly chasing my next high. I got arrested and sat in jail for a month, having withdraws every night lying in my bed shaking for hours, for three weeks. And then got sent to rehab. But three days after getting out of rehab I relapsed. I've been out for a little over. A year now, still using but not as bad as before. I have a job now, just started talking to my friend after a year, but the addiction is still there. But I maintain 220 lbs instead of 145 and see my family every day. I hope you find the motivation you need to better yourself or at least get your addiction under control. Just have to find your higher power.
I know the feel. I shot crystal for two years. Before that it was heroin. Ive been clean twice. But this time its the longest. 9 months. It does get easier by the day, you know its the best feeling youve ever had... But its killing you forreal. Crystal ruined my marriage before it even had a chance to begin. Im clean like i said but he aint. Hes so lost in it idk if he could ever recover. I hope all is well for you.
its hard to break these habits by yourself. trust me I'm 10 months and 17 days clean today. I use too pop pills left to right from downers to stuff that will hype you up. I'm proud of all the others that are clean! keep it up! if no one is proud of you remember I am.
In recovery from heroin since March 30, 2018...as of today I still can’t believe I’ve made it this long. Everyday is a struggle but as of today I have a job working with fellow addicts and I honestly cannot believe I’ve made it this far. I was the junkie who had been through countless rehabs that everyone had given up on. As long as you’re breathing recovery is possible no matter how far fetched it seems!!!!
this song is song perfect. he puts it into words that i couldn't. this is exactly how every addict feels. if someone doesn't understand your addiction show them this song.
this song is so real it makes me cry I'm a couple months clean from heroin but still just try to replace it with pills kinda fukd up because pills led to heroin I'm trying tho
ReptarEmotions That's kinda harsh, heroin addiction is real and unless you've been sucked into the darkness of it, you personally are entitled to your own opinion, but have no right to be so judgmental and critical of someone struggling. Good luck Tiffany Starr, I'm battling too. This addiction is to real and kills so many and ruins numerous lives. Keep ya head up girl ♡♡
This song will forever have a spot in my heart. I found it very early in my addiction and it would put chills on my arms. 10 years later and 3 years clean it still gives me the SAME chills it did when I was in my darkest days. For anyone who is in struggling. Your worth it and you can do it.
This month is overdose awareness month. Please be safe 💟 much love
What a beautiful comment. Thank you
@@markmcginley559 any time. I mean it.. if you’re struggling, you need to know that you are worthy of sobriety, worthy of love, happiness and peace inside. You’re not alone💕✨
Well it must be, cause I'm well AWARE that I've relapsed. In fact, It's so hard I'm basically just using again. And again...
I don't want help too far gone
Am ready to go home to my dad
I remember sitting in my room listening to this on repeat.. contemplating a shot I could never survive. I am over 5 years clean today by the grace of God. ❤ Don't ever give up!
Keep going mate you are doing amazing
Good for you. I was there too.. 3 years now. Wouldn't change it for a thing..
Proud of us all to take a look at ourselves and know we needed changing
Much respect to u & the constant battle that will always go on
Good for you my man its a way better life once you can get through and believe. Hardest downfall i had too get through as well you ever need anyone i got you.
Coming up on 6 years sober, I believe this song is one of the reasons why im still here. Thank you MGK
Congratulations…2 years for me. The First time Hearing this song I broke down crying
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ you’ll always have someone to talk to fam 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Ofcourse he will. I feel a strong sense of community with anyone still struggling. Holla at any of us and we got you. 8 years sober.
Updates?? 🙏
Still completely sober, I'm a grandpa now of 2 at 43 years old, I have a great relationship with both my kids and their little ones, I lost everything, lived in a shed for a year. Today I have 100 times more than I ever had, thank you for asking 😊
I can’t believe that there are people who dislike this song....... for everyone who is dealing with addiction stay strong 💕
This song helped me through alot now I'm 2 years on the 31st
Bryson Miller jus lost my bestfriend Sunday too heroin 😕😭😭💔 an we shared the same name Shawn 💔😔😔
Poliya Filipova right!? This is one of the best addiction songs ever .
Aum ppl dont care or even understand addiction
I love this song myself ..im in recovery myself but once in a blue moon i find myself wanting to scratch an itch land i do then i leave it at that
I hate the song and I’ve been fighting with addiction for most my life. Maybe hating MGK cures addiction! Eminem MF!!
8 months sober from fentanyl this month, I remember listening to this song while using and while withdrawing. Bawling my eyes out, begging myself to just stop. I want everyone to know sobriety is tangible and real, I believe in you and I love you so much.
EDIT 10/31/23
I’m now 2 yrs and 5 months clean from fentanyl, so when I reinforce the promise that sobriety is real and tangible, I mean it with my entire soul. I have almost 70 days sober from all drugs bc although I gave up fent, I didn’t give up drugs. I’ll be getting a sponsor soon and I’m going to NA/AA meetings. We all deserve a beautiful future, I pray everyone single one of us make it there. You would and will be so missed if you lose your life to your addiction. I love you!! 🩷
That's awesome you kicked that shit. Seeing that others have made it through something that controls your life is inspiring. I myself still struggle and there's days it breaks me but I hope that one day I gain my freedom just as you have done. Keep up the good fight your amazing for that. God bless.
This is me now , on repeat . This song is so real. I got a flesh eating bacteria from shooting up heroin right now , well what I thought was heroin turns out it was synthetic heroin the drug krokodile. Being admitted this week, I may loose both my arms at 26 years old. Please keep me on your prayers . I keep telling myself I can do this .
I was in the exact same spot about a year ago.... I want you to know you are worth it an I love you
i hope you're still going strong
2 weeks off iv fentanyl and still feeling it but I am not going back. Love you all!
This my life. Heroin took everything I had. I am two years sober. Slowly getting my life back.
Congrats. Lead the way for others. Your story is important
Keep it up u got this
Smokies Besty thank you
Toshua Ivey thank you
I’m 3 months and 5 days from 3yrs today!!! Keep your head up and I hope you are still doing good!
Man this hits the spot for me on heroine for 13yrs. Don't wanna waste my 30s on this please pray for me..
Gravity Bear i will pray for you, you can do this we are strong. just remember how much effort you would put into finding connects putting together money and getting high, put all that effort into kicking
Gravity Bear you got this. Stay strong and keep fighting. Everything is possible.
Gravity Bear you can do this! I’m over a year sober from coke. Positive vibes sent. Be strong ✊🏻
you're strong dude😉😉 if you can admit to your problem then you can fix it!! you're awesome😘
Hope you find your way.
This song gets me everytime with tears. Exercising the demons is a daily struggle. Losing battles but still winning wars. 🙏🙏
For those of u that r still fighting its worth it.
Never give up! You've got this! I don't even know you, but I'm praying for you! Keep on keeping on!
Yeah heroin is the fucken devil I'd like to brat the ones that get them addicted just because it does nothing but take your body pain its the worst to kick ever I pry for and everybody addicted to the dogfood I had love ones girlfriends get turned out on it and its no good tear you apart and they act like your nothing to them anymore
Poetic
Heroin is a joke these dealers slowly poisoned people with new drug that kills you faster even if your not legally dead your dead inside fentanyl has tooken everything I have and more and I don't have much more to live for wish I could od it never seems to happen even if I try to do it I keep waking up still here must be a reason behind it still struggling daily with my addiction hope it takes me soon enough
To all of you fighting the battle I will pray for you. Was shooting dope for 8 years finally clean got 200 days. No suboxone or methadone did it cold ass turkey in rehab. this song helps me through a lot of dark days. God bless anyone suffering I’m always here to listen if anyone needs an ear I know it can get dark at times.
I love you I fucking hope your still or I am for you I can’t wear short sleeves but I got 2 cars a house and family
Im proud of you ❤️
Damn cold turkey? See that’s my weakness. I’m rockin that methadone program but it saved my life so screw the stigma, right? I commend you for the suffering you went through, it makes my heart heavy just to imagine you…goin thru all all that sickness & emotions then here comes months of that post detox clean life shock. I have confidence that I’ll be off the pink cuffs in my future but until that day comes- I’m gonna be grateful for whatever it takes to keep me away from those needles. My friend (that I cannot pull outta her toxic life) recommended this song to me. At first I said hell no cuz I’m a Eminem fan & ya know… but I do like the lyrics. It’s crazy how we (addicts) have so much in common- I have several journals & I remember writing a love letter to dope then a “You are my only friend, I know that you will always there” entry to a “if you had a heartbeat I would kill you” death threat letter to poison! I’m actually about to lay down & go to sleep thankful that I don’t have to wake up & worry about scoring. I’m going to work from 6:30pm-7am. Lol, that’s how I spend my late nights now. STAY PROUD OF YOURSELF!!! You inspire more ppl than you know.
thats amazing
I did the same thing no subs or methadone either. Going on 60 days. It’s so hard and I still crave it so much. I hope it gets easier cause I’m still craving it so bad and my anxiety is still really bad. I can’t get my heart and racing thoughts to calm down. I can’t do 1 day at time. I have to do it 1 minute at a time. I wish I could get my anxiety to calm down.
I'm 32 days clean and sober off heroin. I beat addiction without professional help and haven't had any cravings or relapses. Thank God I'm mentally strong enough to beat it. Ever since I have quit cold turkey, everything in my life has gotten so much better and looking up. I will NEVER go back down that road. I definitely take it as a lesson learned and only moving forward in life.
Anyone who is battling addiction right now, you can beat the battle if you really set your heart and mind to it. I will be praying for you.
EDIT: I’m still going strong on being clean and sober. I will be a year clean next month, July 27th, 2018! Soooo proud of myself!
Congrats baby x
Jessica R how long was u an addict for sweetie
Jessica R I'd like to know I'm trying get clean now
Wya?
Your using the word sober wrong, sober means not drunk, You mean your clean off heroin, sober off heroin don’t make sense.
"Overdose on your love so i cant have it again".... holy shit !
Realest bar i have ever heard
Mf factz fam never heard anything so truthful
Melvin Rivera Hernandez Damn, u gotta listen to more music then
@@davidpfeifer9489 then why tf u here??
Kanish Kanish Idk bored and this weirdo was recommended
Right feel like that's what its coming to
I haven’t listened too this in years while I was using myself, listening too it now with years clean..just reminds me that it truly takes everything down too your soul from you.
I feel that 4 years sober feels great but it’s been hard
32 now, been on opiates since 23 after a surgery on my balls. Haven't even went home in almost that decade, cuz im scared the fetty n opiates wont be as good or in abundance like they are here. Stuck in Cincinnati chasing this shit, only place I'd considered moving to was Philly, its cheaper. Closer to Johnson and Johnson and ports... Sad. I dont even get high anymore, its just being sick is not a option.!!
@@ayten3617 I hope you get help some day. You deserve it. You deserve to walk freely in this life.
Congrats on being clean I know this is a older comment so hope all is still well💯
@@kierstenlynn123 thank you so so very much!!!! I truly appreciate you commenting more than words can explain. THANK GOD I am still clean from opiates/crack but unfortunately I relapsed on meth and GHP and was on life support from the GHP overdose. God has truly watched over me for so many years & has continued too and I’m back on the right path. I SEND YOU SO MUCH LOVE, POSITIVITY AND HAPPINESS! XOXOXO
THIS SONG IS THE REASON WHY I GOT OFF HEROIN,SOOO INTENSE BUT YET WITH SOOO MUCH PURPOSE...THOSE LYRICS IS THE MAIN & ONLY REASON WHY I GOT CLEAN & STILL CLEAN,9MONTHS & COUNTING✊✊💯
THANK U MGK😘
I'm trying so hard
A song is the reason you stopped using? Mhmmmm, okay pumpkin
Colson! You seeing this
1:17 1:18
This song gives me goosebumps.
You can feel the pain and frustration in his voice.
How can something that makes you feel so ugly on the inside, be transformed into such beauty? This is lyrical art
Did Mgk ever bang dope? I don’t think he did. He made this song for us
I didn't get addicted to drugs, but I'm 8 months and 17 days clean from self harm. Might not mean much to anyone, but means so much to me.
EDIT: wow the love I got on this a year ago is insane you guys are so sweet :(((
As of now I’m 7 months and 15 days clean, thank you to everyone for being so reassuring and supportive 😭💕💕💕
Nada Roshdy you keep it pushing babygirl!!! I understand cuz before I started using. that was my escape from the world..
Breanna Kirkland Thank you so much :)
So proud of you!
Nafi Nowsin Thank you!
late reply but im clean from self harm n shit now just got outta rehab keep strong!
This song has both pushed me through my darkest moments, when I was at my lowest but also helped inspire me towards sobriety. It’s been over two years since I’ve last listened, over two years since I achieved sobriety. I will forever be grateful for that
That is so awesome keep up the awesome work you got this I believe in you and I'm so proud of you
Still one of the most powerful songs I’ve ever heard. Hold your head up high and know u have the power within you to beat addiction. Praying for us all.
2 yrs later. You beat it or still fighting?
Starting rehab next week... scared shitless I don't even remember what it's like to be sober. I've been doing this shit since 16 now I'm 26. Please send your prayers and please wish me luck. I know I have a rough road ahead but I'm praying i can get through...
Noeleen Foor your beautiful you got this right there with you
Noeleen Foor At first its really hard but after awhile it almost feels like you can breath again.. Im not sober rn kinda relapsed really fuckin hard. You can do it I remember being scared of sobriety.. Fuck ive smoked pot and used pain killed everyday since age 13.. Im now a 20 year old IV heroin user in and out of jail
very proud of you...day by day thats all...eventually it will be a memory...but ALWAYS keep that memory to remind you of what your capable of...sending love
Hope the best for you

You can do it. It's all based off of your own mindset. U can over come anything u put ur mind to.
My wife passed away on July 26th 2020 from heroine she shot up and when I woke up I found her on the floor dead and this was her favorite song and now I’m a survivor from meth
My best friend passed 9/11/22 from fent. It's a pain I wouldn't wish on anyone
14 months sober from Heroin and crack. Blessed beyond words to have my family back and live a sober life. God is good

To all of you lost in addiction I promise you’ll make it out just believe in your self. I’m 7 years clean from it and this song helped me so much please please believe y’all can do it man I promise
How. Just how
😢
This was my life for SO long. 9 years sober this September.
I lost so much, but ended up gaining so much more than I had.
When it gets hard, and trust me, it gets HARD some days even some weeks at a time; I think about everything that I have gained that I don't want to lose.
To everyone out there struggling, you got this! If I can do it, so can you!
I’ve got 60 days. I’m still struggling so much. Mainly my anxiety. I hope it gets easier. I’m a wreck still’, I can’t do 1 day at a time. I have to do it 1 minute at a time. it’s so hard. Hardest thing I’ve ever went through and I’m still going through it. My anxiety is so bad like I said.
@@bradysammons you've got this!
The anxiety was one of the hardest parts for me and it still is.
I believe in you!, if I can do it, trust me, anyone can!
You're in my thoughts. (:
Today im stuggling with addiction..
Lord please give me the strength to fight this..
Prayers. Always remember no matter how much your addiction wants to trick you, WE DO RECOVER. I have 14 months sober after battling my addiction on & off for 10 years.
I hope your okay and sober👍
Im almost 3 years clean... for me to get clean it was just holding on to something positive like love for friends and family or boyfriend/girlfriend... have things to look forward to within the week... happy music that is easy to dance to and sing along... do the healthy things you love and youll be ok... everyday is a new day. I have this one bracelet i got from a hospital that says "One Day At A Time" I live by that.. i wear it everyday since 2017, just remember YOU ARE NOT ALONE AND HOPE IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER!!!!
Stay strong 🙏🏽 You can do it
You can do it.
gives me chills like no other . dude I hope anyone who is listening to this can find recovery
And anyone who lost someone through this hardship finds peace.
This got me through my fentanyl, cocaine, Xanax, and opiate addiction when I started getting sober I’d cry to this song 2 times daily. I’m 2.5 years clean now.
Proud of you
4 years sober and this song still pulls at my heart heavily .
Still after all this time this song makes me cry.
These lyrics are out of this world.
To raw. To real. To sad. To hard. Today.
I remember being in rehab and seeing the lyrics to his opening vers. just seeing the words was powerful but then I heard this song. this is one of the most real and meaningful songs I've ever listened to. his ability to personify addiction is spot on. I've heard music from other rappers that made me feel but this song gives me chills every time I hear it. addiction is lonely and mgk is able to remind that it may be lonely but you're not alone. I never speak of my addiction publicly but today I speak out, inspired by mgk, we are not alone. we fight this battle together. if you read this and feel lost just know, we can win, we can push for freedom from our drug. never give up and always remember our past is practice for a better future.
EST- Everyone Stand Together
first post iv ever made on any public page( includeing Fakebook) the last sentence you said is something to live by man "past is practice for the future" it hit me hard.. things can always get better and unfortunately worse so keep trying for a better tommrow and it will come around ......good luck on ur rehabilitation man
awsome
I’ve been listening to this song since I was 15 and going through suicidal thoughts which lead to addiction to numb the pain. This song always hit home for me, especially after I became an addict and there are many nights I spent bawling to this song, it was one of the only things that would stop me from following through with suicide. MGK saved my life with this song, and even 11 years later this helps me stay strong in my sobriety
❤
Now listening to this song, I understand who my brother had this song on repeat so much. He lost his battle to Heroin in 2016
I love and miss you Josh 💜💜
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Sorry for your loss❤
6 days free from shooting heroin. This song gave me chills. Real talk.
How is your recovery going? Stay strong, friend 🙏🏽
Best of luck my dude..am from newyork
I hope you're doing well because you deserve too!
Are you still clean, just wondering. I’m trying to be soon.
I've never had an addiction but I feel this song because my sister was addicted to heroin for 3-4 years. The drug caused her trouble like stealing from shops and family. It caused her to betrade family. She was never happy, she was always sick and numb. My sister went through 2-3 relaspes, but after the last one she went to rehab. Now she got her coin in January for 1 year sober. Now she's 1 year and 7 months. I'm proud of her and anyone who's beating these demons!!
I'm currently using heroin and it's hard to stop and this song is my all-time favorite song...I have relapsed 5 times in two months
+Blaze Daniels Ohh, heroin is a hard drug to stop. Where I'm at, there was 8-9 overdoses. Then another area closer to me, there where lots of overdoses because of someone selling a bad mixture of heroin. But anyway, I'm proud of you. it's really hard to beat addiction.
+Brianna Beckett..... thank you and my best friend just died
+Nick Brooks admitting is your first step to recovery. recovery is your first step to a better life.
#wedorecover
i know the feeling ...would have had 4 months one the fifth but had 3 relapses....trying hard this time. one day at a time
I overdosed more times than I can even count. Was homeless living in bandos and front porches. In the winter, in the rain, in the heat I was out there pursuing one more. I took her into my arms everyday for many years. Today I am 26 close to 27 months clean and have so much to live and love for, I was lost but now I am found. There IS a way out! If you are struggling inside that hell, reach out, get help! You don't have to live or die that way!🙏❤ God is so good!
Same here.
Him recording this at such a vulnerable time. 😞 Sometimes I wish this song got more love but I think it's reached the people who have needed it most and appreciated by those who can relate to the struggle. EST4LIFE. 🖤
Almost 11 months clean off the needle... Turned my life around.. This song keeps me going.. thank you from the bottom of my heart.
To anyone struggling with addiction.. I hope you win.
I'm winning 👍 off needles almost a year now, tapering off methadone now. Finally finished with the shit 100%
Never thought I'd get this far, it's possible guys. If you want it enough, you will do it
Zack V 9 months sober and it’s the greatest feeling. Now it will not be easy but the fight is what let’s you know your alive each and everyday. It’s sobers why of saying you won’t beat me because this is now me.
Thank you. Jehovah son
@@lauraburke9700 this made my day!! Thank you for your honesty! Im proud of you. A year for me.
I am. been smoking weed for 5 years daily
I'm revisting this song just 10 days from 5 years sober. At the end of my addiction right before I decided it was time for a change this song really helped me even when I got sober revisiting this song reminds me how good I have it now. No matter how bad of a day I'm having.
So proud of you!!! Stay strong! You got this! ❌️❌️
I struggle with addiction and alcoholism and this song gives me insane chills. I completely feel the pain in this song
I hope you got past that point in your life, I’m currently going through the same thing and know how much pain it can bring
I feel you 💔💯 I overcame my IV heroin addiction with a very high dose of methadone, but I still drink constantly. There is no pain like the pain of addiction 💔💔💔 I pray for you to find strength and a way out ❤️🙏
Unconditional love 💕
this song is one of the most amazing songs ive ever heard. the first time I listened to it, I cried. it touches me each time I hear it. thank you mgk, cin
Cin Lake i love this song ive had a drug problem ann this song it makes me cryy everyytime
Courtney, im so touched by your post. any of us that has or is going through this, would be moved by this song. I fell in love with it the first time I heard it. thank you for your honesty, good luck to u and your struggle, I feel your pain ♥
me too ii play it every day as a reminder (:
How you on RUclips if you are out on the streets?
Cole Lumadue something callef your cell phone, i do most of my work from mine. Have a good day, cin
63 days sober off cocaine. Wouldn't have been able to do it without MGK's music.
Wish I could say the same . Props to you
whiteouthamstra incase no one else told you i’m really proud i know trust me i know how hard it truly is i still struggle with it but i’m sober now!!
Good man! Stay strong bro
Sober off cocaine? That makes no sense, how can you be not drunk off cocaine. Drunk only comes from alcohol. Sober means not drunk.
Stay Strong your a fighter. You don’t need that shit your an amazing person.
Ive been sober for 5 years and i cant play this song around anyone that has never been down this road. If i ever feel weak i play this to remind me where I was and where i am now. People can say what they want about MGK but he has saved many lives.
OMG this is the 1st time I have heard this song. I had to pause and just cry (brought back so many painful memories) it is so powerful I am not the addict but my brother was for years. And we watched him struggle for years and tried to help but were not successful. Watch my mom suffer knowing he was out there somewhere, we would help her search allies and crack houses for him secretly praying we would not find him dead she would not be able to handle that. He was so hooked he didn't care where the next high came from or what he had to do to get it. Thank god after realizing we would never give up on him he got sober its been 15 yrs now and I Thank god for that everyday. I hope this song continues to help people find the way to get help.
I'm not a typical MGK fan, I'm a 42 yr old mother of 3 but last year we lost everything in a fire and after 10 yrs clean I relapsed and wanted to give up. someone played this song for me and since then MGK, his music and his fans have gotten me through the worst days of my life. His songs and their messages of what he's been able to overcome transcend generations, race, gender and speak to human beings. his songs give us hope and the strength to make it one more day. thanks mgk
Out of all the tracks that are bringing mgk more followers because of ems beef, this needs to be one.
Billy Lee right!! All his holder stuff hits you in all right places and soul. I hope he goes back to this type of lyrics. 👌❤️💯
After watching MGKs Breakfast Club interview recently I think he should take a step back and relisten to his own song here.
I feel like this, 27 and tracks like those are where mgk really stands out
Absolutely...it's absurd that Em threw this in his face after we all know Marshall was the poster child for being addicted to pills.
Yeah dropped the ball on benefiting off that Eminem beef. I was expecting something good and he drops that steaming heap of shit called Binge. I couldn't believe it.
was listening to this while i was using heroin, i am now 8 months clean and listening to this now breaks my heart. I pray for those who are still suffering
I get chills every time I hear this song. This life he speaks of aint no joke. My heart goes out to anyone who is strung out. If you are and you need talk shoot me a message. I'll be there to listen, talk, just be there. Everyone needs someone some time. We all have issues. We all have problems.
I'm 16. I was addicted for 4 years and November made my year clean. So, stay strong, stay clean, and keep fighting. It's worth it.
Tina McCormick congrats! I shot dope at age 15.. Get it now man, it gets worse and worse and worse
Getting clean was the best thing I've ever done in my life
very proud of you...day by day thats all...eventually it will be a memory...but ALWAYS keep that memory to remind you of what your capable of...sending love
Tina McCormick .. I got five years clean off of heroin best thing I ever did like you I started at a young age and things spiraled out of control real fast. In and out of prison and just wasting my life, since I've been clean so much has changed for me life is just so much better sober. I wish you best wishes and a life for happiness keep up the good work much love and respect Ron
keep fighting
To everyone struggling with addiction, know you are worth something. You deserve a better life, it’s hard but you got to keep pushing on. I hope you win!🥺❤️
This is my life... I'd love to know also. PLG
It’s so nice from the bottom of my heart to hear you all got passed the addiction. For those who are fighting, don’t give up. Evolve!
I’m 1 year sober after a long 15 year on and off battle. I should have died over 20 times but came back every time, and I don’t know why. His music is what helped me want to clean up finally. I don’t care what anyone else says about him or his music, he is one of the best artists in my eyes. He takes his pain and life experiences and turns it into something basically everyone can relate to. This song is one that explains it so others can somewhat understand the struggle of being an addict.
Anyone who is still struggling and thinks they can’t change their life, it is possible. You have the strength and ability to do it, don’t give up. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Played this for my mother at a very young age to open her eyes to her meth addiction.. here we are years later & she's been sober for 4 years.
But plot twist I'm 19 so it still took her years to quit
+Alexis Strother Good for her, it gives me hope when I read that there are other people who have managed to kick a meth habit...it seems like it's more rare to find ex meth users than it is for heroin. I got hooked 2 years ago and after my first time using it, I don't think I even tried to fight the urge to not be high 24/7... Here I am, 20 years old and struggling day by day to resist the urge to shove a needle in my arm. I think that realizing all of the damage I've done to all of my relationships with friends and family is worse than anything else... I've been clean for 25 days now... Slowly finding myself again.
+Rogers Forehead wow for real
Im sober 1 week... Trying to keep it that way.
NOMAD Stay strong. You can do it, I promise you. And it’ll be so worth it in the end. You got this 🙌🏼
My brother has lost his battle 2 years August. Today his Birthday and I miss him so much! R.I.P your no longer in pain.
My condolences for ur loss Amanda.
I just hit my 1 year sober mark from meth and alcohol and i just found this song... mgk, your music has been something that helps me escape since i was 14 or 15. Im now 21, almost 22, and your music still gets me. I love your music and im glad i found this song
Use to listen to this regularly in the morning. During my wake up "get well" (5 years of that life 😞)
I've been clean now for a little over 3 years and I still listen to this so I remember the desperation I felt in those mornings.
Man, this shit hits deep. Clean for 1 year and 3 months.
that's fkin awesome. me n my family tried to help my brother he was on his way to sobriety n then he just dipped. n is back to the dope. smh it sucks n its sad as fk. but when I here good shyt that ppl like u make out of that life. gives me a Lil bit of hope
so happy for you
congrats
i dont get why the bad things always happen to the best people..
Darien Simon Jesus would be 1 of those people.👣
As a recovering heroin addict, I can’t even explain the feeling this song gives me every time I listen to it. Through all the trauma I’ve experienced throughout my life, just like millions of other addicts, I accepted that the only way I was leaving this world was with a needle in my arm or in an ally way in the city. I accepted that I’d never amount to anything but a failure. But that all changed, & I’m beyond blessed that I was able to find hope, strength, & way out. My life is far from where I’d like it to be, but it’s a million times better then it ever was before.
To all those out their struggling with _any_ type of addiction, you _are_ worth recovery, you _are_ a damn warrior, it _does_ get better, and you _CAN_ win this fight.
I stay praying for the still sick & suffering. 🙏🏻
Thank you so fucking much for this man 😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏💔💔💔💔 this literally made be bawl more than this song. God bless you ❤️🙏 I hope one day I can help other addicts and give the advice in the same way you do. Please use your experience to bring other people out of this hell, you very clearly have the heart for it 💕💕💕💕
This song will always be my song...heroin ruined my life. I just could not get clean no matter how hard I tried. It took years and losing everything. My ex murdered our son and I just couldn’t imagine living without him. I am clean off the needle and heroin but still in methadone treatment. I do know that I never want to go back because it just wasn’t living. Everyday is hard without my son but I keep going.
Stay strong man
This song hits me deep because I've been struggling with addiction since I was 15 and now I'm 45 and haven't made any progress as far as being clean and sober except for when I was in prison for 3 yrs keep making these songs to help us fellow addicts out from time to time
136 days clean from Meth
NikNik Griffith proud of you, stay strong
Daniel Finley-Pesti thanks! it gets better day by day.
Hang tough yo. Been through that struggle... All the best in the endeavor
❤
NikNik Griffith I’m about 8 months clean from shooting up for 2 years. Did it all myself. Now I gotta get over the depression
Two years sober. Baltimore streets almost stole my life but I made it! Life was hopeless but it gets better.
I can relate, had to leave my home in Baltimore just was to many temptations there, God bless
I had to leave Baltimore to get sober!
Them streets is ruff
@@jessfarley8083 the worst place in the US. Heroin capital...
Jesse Kramer facts! But can be one of the most beautiful places if they would do something down there I blame the gov down there for letting it be that way
Four months sober from meth and heroin and all kinds of stuff I'm only nineteen and this song has helped so much to those struggling or sober be strong one day at time
Just so you know some of us are still keeping you up in our thoughts and prayers. Were all human brother... One day at a time. Much love💯
3 days clean today. It's hard, Hard as fuck but I got this EST. Lace up
Keep it up homie. Do it for yourself.
Keep going strong homie
EST got ur back on this G
I lost my daughter 24 years old would have been 25 this month its been 2 weeks since she tore my heart out of my chest
yoquedocheese I'm so sorry. I know I don't know you but If you ever need to talk feel free to contact me.
I just lost my brother November 26 2016 because of her. He battled addiction on and off. This song really hits about the mind set and the price you pay to be with her. The pain is now gone from you but the pain lives on in us. FLY HIGH BROTHER till the day we meet again
Misguided Thoughts Sorry hear that bro.... I lost my big brother on June 5th 2017.... Its crazy man the 26th on Nov is my birthday. We both my brother and I struggled with addiction for long time.... my battle still rages on and i fight with the pain of loosing my best friend and brother everyday. Between loosing him and also four years ago in March my baby sister commuted suicide 3 days after her 20th birthday... This song hits home for me.... Just know he no longer lives in pain and that life is hard dark and lonely.... He went to a better place man...
Misguided Thoughts lost my brother January 2016 all due to drug addiction after years and years of use and neglect he finally left this world but now he isn't suffering
Misguided Thoughts
My condolences to all of you all it is hard to lose a family member especially when it's your best friend due to drug addiction. I always thought that I would never had to go through anything like this but I did I lost my cousin he was my friend my brother but now he's not suffering anymore but his family is still hurt again my condolences to everybody and God bless
it makes me feel a certain way to "like" this comment....im so sorry...i never thought id get to the point that i was and even though your brother sadly didnt make it....others like myself have...over and over again i tried and finally about to come up to my year of sobriety..in no fucking way does this take away from his struggle...its something NO ONE CAN RELATE to unless they have gone through it...im trying to say youve gained a guardian and trust me everyday he wanted to stop and quit but the physical pain and mental anguish is so over powering its hard to compare to anything else....may he rest peacfully...
Who still here
I am…been down this road for a long time and I’m starting to think this is the only way out.
I'm here 😢
Me ❤
Hits home hard for me…. 14 years clean and lucky and blessed to be alive. Thanks Kelzs for this🤘🏽🙌🏽❤️

That a long time man and no im not being sarcastic. Keep it up it gets easier and congratulations on your accomplishment you have made it this far don't turn back.
Thank you! i have 29 days today I cant wait till tomorrow when I can say I have 30!
Kaylee Matlock
Good, keep it up its a better life. Glad your getting your life back.
this song leaves me speechless and just hits home!!!!!
21 years old and im suffering a heroine addiction........
I remember back when I first felt the warmth rushing through my veins and that wonderful warm hug we all seem to love soo fucking much but hate at the same time,I knew right then and there that this was going to be an never ending LOVE HATE relationship!
KayeleeSkerritt keep holding on because you've got this and you're gonna make it through. Amazing days are waiting for you
24 and goin thru it 2
There is hope. I promise you that
I was a year and a half clean and i relapsed a week or so ago and now im sitting here trying to wrap my head around the love the love i have for something i hate so much .i want to stay sober forever for my family and it breaks my heart that i will suffer with addiction till i die.i have been on the needle for over 6 years now and nomatter how far i run it always catches me smh
It can end and if you don't believe in yourself believe that I believe in you I know you can do it because I did I wish you the best of luck honey it's a very rough road getting clean from heroin I have first-hand experience with that but it is possible and the hope and gratitude that I feel today is better than any shot I ever did
Love seeing the comments of the people in recovery. I hope everyone is doing well and stay strong 🧡
First time hearing this song and it has me crying is so freaking real, only a real addict will understand
I do home.
Man this song really hits hard. I battle addiction everyday and most people don't realize you become addicted to the needle too. But a week clean so far. Please pray for me.
kelly hester amen i think i like the needle more then the drug
yep defo, propa shyte
Gets to a point where theres no other way to do it.. I found myself scrapping empty bags my used spoons and cleaning out my rig just to have something to shoot.
Katelyn Shipley nah, I was definitely addicted to the needle but the rush was #1, the actual ritual of copping/mixing a shot/hitting a pipeline was #2, the high was #3, and then the needle was #4 for me. I've found rigs and caps and even an unopened ten pack and just toss em away. Maybe it's because I'm on mmt but I feel nothing. But if I found a half gram of fire in my house.... That'd be hard. Thank God the 80mg of mdone would keep any rush or high away and I'm not trying to stay off the done long enough to hit wd just to get high. 2+yrs clean and not about to fuck up now
stay strong guys
The difference between MGK is that while other rappers are encouraging drug use and selling drugs he is over here giving hope to those struggling with drugs and fighting the demons that come with the lifestyle, like me for example. So I personally really appreciate this song, its message and the emotion that he put into this song. Nobody wants to admit they have a problem never mind when millions of people are listening so this took courage. Thank you MGK and lace the fuck up bitchess!!! Ahhhhhhh!!!
Year and a half clean after an 11 year addiction, my little brother was still in the grips of it and showed me this song a few months back. He lost his battle on march 25th of this year, he was 4 months shy of his 28th birthday . God bless all of you currently going through the struggle that consumed my life for so many years, the same struggle that took my baby brothers life. You have a purpose, get clean and live your life; there is so much more out there for you.
Last night was the first time I listened to this since I've been clean. Took me right back. Good pain. 4.5 years clean now.
That's that real shit. I honestly wish I would have heard this song years ago. Going through the heroin addiction was the roughest place in my life I can't look back and relate to so much MGK keeps real talk
I'm 7 days clean and fighting everyday for more good days. God is good..
jay wheels addiction is a snake. Stay strong.
jay wheels

Aims TA good job :)
Aims TA good job man. proud of you keep it up. God bless you
4 years clean, from many different substances but it feels like just yesterday I was fighting a losing battle for years embarrassed and miserable hating my life and myself, relapse after relapse I couldn’t give it up. I honestly did not think I would make it out alive and sometimes I still wonder how I did, I must have had a guardian angel/my best friend in heaven looking out for me that’s for sure. Thank god somehow I became clean, with the help of god & my family.
I was 12 when I first heard this and now that i’m 20, I get he’s talking about drugs. Praying for those who go through this pain, you can beat it!
I have never touched the needle in my life but for some reason this song still really fucks with me
Nikki Griffin dont.
Nikki Griffin its not a needle he means.....its a metaphore for his women
marcus howes He's talking about his drug addiction, not women.
marcus howes youre a fucking moron lol
marcus howes no, he was a straight up junkie who got help. hes talking about the needle.
325 days clean off Xanax and fentanyl every day is a struggle but you can push through it!
How?
I'm struggling. My mom j overdosed and died. And I relapsed
Ooooof that's a good streak though but yeah I had to stop fucking with xans and fetanyl patches not just because I know they're a bad combo to mix but I've finally experienced what it feels like to OD and let me tell you.....I literally remember my roommate helping me revive by making me throw up and I just remembered waking up with a major headache and vomiting all over my self and just hearing her tell me what happened made me feel so fucking bad....I almost left my corpse and my dogs behind with my bestfriend....I felt that I disrespected enough to shut my ass down and let me say even til this moment I have urges
Bruh!!! I have a year today and today is the hardest its ever been! I fucking hate this shit! I was doing 6g's of fetti and a Tee of shit a day! I didnt start to kick for 15 days. And still thinking about that I just want a shot! Why h fuck do I love this needle.
Nearly two years now, I pray and hope you're still fighting and busting ass ❤️
Its been too long since I listened to this. Ive lost 2 younger siblings to addiction. MGK and my EST family has saved me and given me the strength to keep going. Thank you to all of you! If you are struggling with addiction just know you are worth getting clean for! You matter and are loved!
Soooooo glad to be outta this life and i play for anyone still struggling they find the light! ❤
People that say MGK doesn’t have talent, doesn’t have skills, and came out with so much hate saying he isn’t any good after the Em diss, never heard songs like this.
Day one sober. I will fight for the 2nd day
keep fighting !
how r u doin
the fight is hard but well worth it. trust me I have 1year clean and never felt so good in my life. the worse day sober is better than any day being high
day one important. but not any less important than every single day of kickin the shit. ive quit meth, heroin, jwh, alcohol, and ketamine. have fun with withdrawl play it like a video game. dont give
do it bro, hard as it may be, I speak from experience when I say its worth it
Used to listen to this as I was shooting up heroin, I was sad, lost and in a really dark place. By the grace of God I'm able to say I'm now 8 months sober and loving it! ❤️ We do recover.
i hope everyone who started their recovery is still going strong... much love to you all, my friends
Never heard this track until today, and this song hits home for me heavy. I'm currently trapped in the web of addiction right now with shooting dope and have been for 6 years. But I'm falling fast, I'm currently the worse I've ever been at the moment she has a hold of me tight right now yo. The sad part is that I know it, and I see the very dark path I'm heading down. I'm to the bottom of the barrel type shit right now and hitting rock bottom faster then I can stop. Losing friends and family members cause of my current state, and I feel helpless. So if anyone is battling addiction right now all I can say is good luck and try to stay positive, and take it one step and one day at a time. One love y'all.
Really hope you get out of that life style. Really wish the best for you. Lost my best friend to drug abuse. Praying for you, I know that shits hard to get off. I've had friends go down that road. And it hurts me to see them like that
Bro I completely understand. ..I found this song at rock bottom...couldn't find a good vein n my arm...I'm 45 days clean now...it's a every day struggle...it's don't know u but we r brothers of the needle...u can over come it...dope tells u ur weak..and u need it..but u don't. ..it's won't lie it won't be easy...but get help...and any help...i hate to advise substitutes..but a methadone clinic is better than dying with ur arm tied off it worked for me...it's was my last resort. ..but go to meetings...go to sober friends...admit to ur self ur powerless alone and give that shit up and trade for ur family friends and ur life...ur life is worth way to much...even to a stranger like me...I kno how dope is and I may be too late with this comment but I pray ur still with us and if nothing else at least trying to get clean...it'll be hard but YOU CAN DO IT...I HAVE FAITH IN EVERY ADDICT...take it one day at a time and if no one else u got a stranger from st.louis praying for u...and understanding ur pain...and knowing that u can beat this deamon....do it for ur self ...it's time we all put that needle down....one love..good luck and stay strong...peace brother
Steven Nalewicki how you doing now bro? I been where you are ive been clean few months and this song still brings me to tears. because i can remember being dope sick as fuck trying to ease the pain just sitting in a hot shower listening to it letting the water wash my tears away. damn man this song still hits me. i hope you got yourself some help because it does fucking getting better my man
It does get easier, but its gonna get worse before it will. I started shooting dope and within 3 months i lost 70+ lbs, me and my best friend were fist fighting everyday because we had been up for a month, I was stealing from my family, and I was constantly chasing my next high. I got arrested and sat in jail for a month, having withdraws every night lying in my bed shaking for hours, for three weeks. And then got sent to rehab. But three days after getting out of rehab I relapsed. I've been out for a little over. A year now, still using but not as bad as before. I have a job now, just started talking to my friend after a year, but the addiction is still there. But I maintain 220 lbs instead of 145 and see my family every day. I hope you find the motivation you need to better yourself or at least get your addiction under control. Just have to find your higher power.
I know the feel. I shot crystal for two years. Before that it was heroin. Ive been clean twice. But this time its the longest. 9 months. It does get easier by the day, you know its the best feeling youve ever had... But its killing you forreal.
Crystal ruined my marriage before it even had a chance to begin. Im clean like i said but he aint. Hes so lost in it idk if he could ever recover.
I hope all is well for you.
its hard to break these habits by yourself. trust me I'm 10 months and 17 days clean today. I use too pop pills left to right from downers to stuff that will hype you up. I'm proud of all the others that are clean! keep it up! if no one is proud of you remember I am.
xander2160
Clean 3 years from fentanyl and I still crave it but I continue to stay strong.
In recovery from heroin since March 30, 2018...as of today I still can’t believe I’ve made it this long. Everyday is a struggle but as of today I have a job working with fellow addicts and I honestly cannot believe I’ve made it this far. I was the junkie who had been through countless rehabs that everyone had given up on. As long as you’re breathing recovery is possible no matter how far fetched it seems!!!!
this song is song perfect. he puts it into words that i couldn't. this is exactly how every addict feels. if someone doesn't understand your addiction show them this song.
I hate what I've become
Why Karen?
because I'm 51 been with her since 84 she won't leave me alone.yet she keeps me alone.
Get help karen you can put her down
first time my friend put me on to this, I got chills, I started to tear up
this song is so real it makes me cry I'm a couple months clean from heroin but still just try to replace it with pills kinda fukd up because pills led to heroin I'm trying tho
Tiffany Starr get your fucking head in the game Tiffany, smoke weed. Quit fucking with pills and Heroin.
ReptarEmotions
That's kinda harsh, heroin addiction is real and unless you've been sucked into the darkness of it, you personally are entitled to your own opinion, but have no right to be so judgmental and critical of someone struggling. Good luck Tiffany Starr, I'm battling too. This addiction is to real and kills so many and ruins numerous lives.
Keep ya head up girl ♡♡
Melissa Perry it's harsh because I'm being 100? Fuck heroin, you get your fucking head in the game too.
I lost my best friend too it.
Dr phil
This song will forever have a spot in my heart. I found it very early in my addiction and it would put chills on my arms. 10 years later and 3 years clean it still gives me the SAME chills it did when I was in my darkest days. For anyone who is in struggling. Your worth it and you can do it.
Heroin took my entire life, my brothers. Now 14 months away from a needle. This songs hits deep.
I reached one year sober in October! Life is good!
This song is forever on my skin. Makes me feel sick every time I listen to it. 3 years going strong.
yessssss
It will never be easy but it will be worth it. I am so happy for you. You're strength inspires me and gives me hope that I can do the same.
Thats awesome man congrats on 2 years keep it up!
Your tattoo is awesome... Keep going strong !
17 years later and still struggling…. This song always gets me through my lowest points….
Keep pushing you CAN do it. Prayers
Never did drugs, but cared for the wrong guy for the same amount of time. Good luck girl
6 years clean from heroin next month.
This song hits.
