I care about each and every one of you. Keep pushing, your WORTH IT! The only time we should look down on someone is to help them up or to pray for them. #ADDICTIONKILLS
I'm Robert God made me schizophrenic. My dad died when I was 19 n I started drugs n done a lot I died three different times. I lost everything my family kids everything. I finally quit at 35 and I lost my mind seeing n hearing. The voice's was so much I would cry out to God and nothing. I spent 2 yrs in a mental hospital where I found God I prayed not for myself but for him I said to him I cant imagine what you go through now the voices are gone. Im better sober for 6 yrs n a beautiful wife Kelsey. Thank you for this song
@@kelseymorelock5492 I hope you are still doing good man, i deal with depression daily since the passing of my mother. I got about 5 years sober and it isnt easy but its def worth it. much love brother you got this
I fought pill addiction for six years and I been clean now for 5 months. Every day is a struggle but I hold my head high even tho some days r harder then others. I rly like this song, ur awesome. :)
Just wanted to say I’m so proud of you. I know that takes so much strength! Never ever give up, you got this! I’ve been clean from heroin for 2 1/2 years now, I’ll never go back to that miserable life. Remind yourself that you’re strong as fuck every once in awhile. ❤️
@@kass_G59 thank u so much, I had some days where I felt I was about to give in but if it wasn't for my boyfriend talking with me and helping me on my bad days I wouldn't b where I am today. Congratulations on being clean, some people don't realize how hard it is to get clean. It's a struggle and u get triggers that make u want that drug and u just have to stay strong. Again thank u so much, have a great weekend.
@@angelwest8414 Same here girl! My boyfriend helped me get out, if it wasn't for him I wouldn't be alive. I still have days where I just wanna say f it & go get loaded but I know I can't do that. I've started writing in a journal & that's been helping a lot! Since I can't really go to meetings due to Covid. I've been having a hard time coping, thinking about all the people I've lost.. Too many to count. Again, never give up. You're loved ❤️
YOU mam are the real HERO... I have battling meth addiction for 20 yrs. Just got out of prison bout a month ago and have relapsed. Been on a 6 day binge, and I'm miserable. This was def what I needed to hear. I've been sober, I know it's worth it!!! GOD BLESS YOU!!!
Keep that head up man, key is find purpose and responsibility. I have been in the Grip myself. Also as a way to keep working on yourself if you have never done DBT therapy ... which is much different than any other as you learn and practice the coping skills that most never learn or master. Legit you could turn into a Jedi master if you learn for one to regulate your emotions.. they control us in that way, also no more running from pain. You can sit and deal and let it pass. Shame is your friend, it is the compass that guides us when we start heading in wrong direction. Listen to it, and do the opposite of what your ashamed of. Distress tolerance will keep you from relapse and regret. Acceptance is key, personal responsibility and mindfulness. Seriously to stay sober you must constantly be involved in maintaining and improving yourself because if you stop, you get complacent. Keep up good work 🙏♥️🇺🇸
Your BLESSINGS!!! HAVE FAITH IN GOD AND HE'LL CONTINUE TO BLESS YOU. NO MATTER WHAT NOR HOW MANY YEARS CLEAN, ONCE AN ADDICT ALWAYS A ADDICT AND WE FIGHT DEMONS AWAY ON A DAILY BASIS AND OTHERS DONT REALIZE NOR SEES OUR STRUGGLES/PAIN.....STAY STRONG STAY POSITIVE KEEP UR HEAD HELD HIGH AND STAY AWAY FROM THE EVIL ONES....
Bro I feel It I LOST EVERYTHING now I got a year and seven months sober happy and got everything back I’ve got another relapse in me but not another recovery so I’m going strong 💯 and congratulations bro keep it going
Read < James 5:16 > And then know I am proud of you....of anyone who can admit their faults, their sins. To basically confess and relate to every other human being on the planet. Bcuz not one of us is perfect, whether we have the same sins or not, does not matter, we are all guilty of fucking it up occasionally. And when we admit it to each other we are free from its chains. I've been free from those chains for a few years now. Whoever said "the truth shall set you free"...?....they had that part figured out anyway. I may not be but a speck on the radar, but once again, I am proud of you man, for real. Just keep trying and do your best. You'll do fine, you seem to be right on track 😉
We love you, Burden. Keep speaking the Truth! God speaks through you. I'm 47, been fighting addiction for almost 35 years. Lived homeless on the streets with no family since age 13. After 9 years in prison, I had put myself through high school, then college in my 40s, and today I still cope but with self-medication, because the struggle never ends. I thank God that He is using you to reach past, present, and future generations of lost and recovering souls with your songs. Most all of those I knew are dead. Carry on with the gift you have been given!
This shits fire, back on day 3 from opiots. Could never wish Addiction on my worst enemy, people who don't struggle with it could never understand the mental breakdown it does on us, but we do recover some times it just takes a few mess ups #beenfightingfor8years #age25
Hope your staying clean my friend. I battled heroin for at least 15 year been off for 3 years suboxone has saved my life. I do know the struggle, lived it for many years wanted to quit so many times but never could. Blessing to you and I hope you make it. I lost way to many friends and family from it and almost myself to many times to count. It is possible!!
I've been dealing with alcoholism because I lost too much too quick and I'm fighting myself to get out of it and it's controlling me. It takes ahold of me. I'm tryna to save myself. It's just not easy
Sadly only like 10% of us heroin addicts get and stay clean. Homeless friendless family gave up sleeping on loading docks but only when you could hustle enough dope that you could slam that plunger down and forget that you’re laying on concrete with out even a blanket feeling dirty ass with a burning itch because last time you felt well enough to want to clean up and went to take a nutsack butthole underarm and face wash in some gas station or grocery store bathroom some worker or security threatened the cops ..so hollow so empty that you couldn’t cry if someone shot your mom in front of you right there (unless you are dope sick then your eyes are non stop watering) making random addict homeless 20-60 hour friendships where you combine your crimes and get healthy dose of high and spend who knows how many hours tweeking around digging in dumpsters and peoples cars with them talking like you are making some kinda bond because you’re starved for feeling like a human before one of you just wanders off or takes Off so they don’t have to share the last of the dope...rinse repeat., feeling like society doesn’t even see you or if they do you must resemble a dead rat or pile of trash the way people look right through you like you aren’t there but do manage to step around you But still choosing to chase that bliss even though 70% of the time your dog ass sick or fighting the clock to find some cash and beat the dope sick clock ...still only 10% make it. If you made it walk tall motherfuckr you are strong
Keep pushing fam I'm 25 been on em since about 18 yrs old it's a never ending cycle but only the strong survive yanno you could tell a beautiful story one day to somebody like us don't give up keep pushing !!!
As I lay here in my bed fighting this song helps me make it threw the night , the looking in the mirror feel disappointment part hits hard . I can do this same as you can brother , ty for sharing this masterpiece. As I read some of these comments I know others needed this song as well , we all can do this . God bless everyone struggling with this addiction, I pray for you all .
If I could win my war with temptation everyday and stay clean and sober for over a decade than anyone can.. This the type of shit I like most and write myself .. The real authentic from the heart honesty about our struggles... Good work my man and much respect
I've been battling pill addiction for about 15yrs and have relapsed a few times and when I heard this song it literally brought me to tears! I now listen to this song everyday to remind me to keep fighting because there is so much pride in being able to say you're clean! Even if it's just a day, a year or more it's always a demon riding along with you! Love your music bro and just know you inspire a lot of people!
this hits a lot deeper when you really deal with all of these demons.. no matter how good I do for others, no matter how I live, no matter what I do. Ive accepted that even tho I don't want to be, most of the time im the bad guy in everyones story. stay blessed bruh
about 20yrs ago I started using cocaine with some friends on the weekends. 6 months later I was a full-blown crack addict.. I had my "rock bottom" moment when I had traded my truck and my motorcycle of crack and was getting kicked out of my house due to non-payment. I never once stole from anyone or hurt anyone due to my addiction, not once. I lived on the streets for about 6 months putting myself back together, all on my own. After that, I havent used since. But, even to this day I am looked upon by my family as a crackhead. If someone misplaces something, Im thought to have stolen it.. This is after 20yrs of being clean, and having never been a thief, even during my addiction. Im a family man now, a business owner, making my way in this world, and even 20yrs later people that know of my past still treat me this way. Its so disheartening :(
@@SwiggitySwagDopeInTheBag its sad how true that is... no matter how good you become or start changing for the better people will always hold that cloud overhead... well shit man im glad you're doing a whole lot better keep striving to be better. much love and respect forreal!
~I am 8 years sober this year, and this song has helped me so much. I can’t thank you enough for this track my brother, it’s helped me throughout my battle~
I just lost my son’s father to addiction on the 7th of February…. my head feels like it’s spinning…. I can’t believe he’s gone… all I can do is hold our son so close to me… I’m so lost right now… he was doing so well.. I never thought it would be him… I miss him so much it hurts so bad. I’m so angry and I don’t think I’ve fully processed everything that has happened yet. Our son looks just like him. I hope that you’re flying high and no longer in pain my love… Alvin Geovany Martinez 02-21-1990 - 02-07-2024. I really hope that there is a life after death and that you’re down here watching over Odin and I… I promise that I will stay strong for our son. I love you. I hope that you’re proud of me. I need your strength right now. I could really use one of our talks. You always made me feel stronger, I miss you… I love you.. and I hope that wherever you are now, that one day we will meet again..
Hey bro, 127 days clean today. Currently @ EastHaven Halfway House up in MN. I've been a fan since you came out with "What am I on". Hope to catch one of your shows. Hearing this really inspires me!!!
This song hit every single emotion of mine. I could have never put these words together more perfectly and you may have written it based on what you’re going through and feeling but understand that it’s exactly the same for me.
Your not alone every word in this song is my life too. You made feel less alone. Mad love, Mad peace and respect, brother. Dropping Rose's for you while we are both still alive. ♥️ 🌹🌹
Fought the Demons for eight years and have been clean for 3 years luv your music and your inspiration will help countless people dealing with addiction Awesome things come to Awesome people 😀💯👍💥🇺🇲
You just need to find the right people to be in your life don't let them change you. I don't have friends and the reason why because I don't go out and party,drink,drugs and I don't like problems in my life. I'm very lucky that I have a family that loves me and raise me right. God bless you
Love how you kept it completely raw and open but with the most melodic vibe I think it really helps to understand the story also very easy to relate been on repeat since I’ve heard it
Get a big sac of kratom three teaspoons a day and work your way down. I’m 80 days clean and sober it helped a lot. 15 year garbage head if you want it then go for it🙏
@@kitty10141 been doing the Kratom for 5 months. Never really did much for me the fist 4-6 weeks and one day it smacked me upside the head. In all honesty I indulged. Been working my way down to what got me 1 week now lasts 3. It can grab you like the other stuff but not as bad.
Been an addict since I was 12 now I'm 45 started my sobriety 19 days ago when I went to jail again been out a week so far doing good hopefully I can maintain this time. Great music keep up the good work and keep fighting
7 years in a herion addiction 1 week ago I was 5 years clean and sober I finally have the life I always wanted met the girl of my dreams having our first baby and I can always depend on her when I struggle I started doing addiction talks and podcasts and I released a book I'm proud of the man Ive become
To everyone struggling, I watched someone close to me go through this almost exactly. Stay strong, each day clean is a battle won, until eventually the worst of the war is won and you didnt even realize it. And don't ever be afraid to reach out, even if that person can't understand exactly, if they love you they will try.
4 years clean off everything bruh I was 120 pounds when I was in active addiction shit takes everything from you I'm proof of that but hey life is so much better I can hold down a job I got a kid on the way ODAAT so I felt that songs 💯 keep doing bruh proud of you
Coke addiction clean for 17 yrs now. One day at a time. You have a gift to share with the world. I did 2 years back then myself praying for you, the first year is the hardest . Much love brother keep your head up 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Sober since I was 19 man thank god for the forcing my family did to save my life. I get to be 27 today no drugs drinking steroids nothing no heroin. 8 years sober man life is fucking good today!
You nailed it down on this one brother. Been alcoholic for 20 years. Its a war. We fight, we slip, we fall,we get up and try again. The stigma around us keeps us alone when all that we seek is a hand. So we help eachother. We ain't weak so long as we never give up. Thank you for all your music and all you do to speak for those of us who share this with you. Proud to call you my brother.
I have been recovered today from the hopeless state of mind and body and the obsession to drink and get high has been removed one day at a time for almost 2 years because I live the 12 steps of AA!! God is good.
I have to say is thank you like you're honesty is the best therapy for a lot of people like us. A lot of us have no reason to look forward to anything except for when somebody like you like us has actually made it and beat it out thank you for sharing everything.
Listening to this song on repeat. Coming to terms with my addiction and finding the motivation to give quitting another shot. Your music inspires me and I know it's saving lives. Thank you for your brutal honesty and openness. Best rapper in the game for years now.
Bro thats speaking volumes 14+ yrs battling this shit and I'm 28. Half my life been spent battling demons and I feel exactly how u say it bro. The shit is poison but ur right. My greatest accomplishment is nothing without my greatest downfalls.
Bruh the struggle is real.. I ant never felt a song like I do this one 20 years spoon feedn... Almost 3 clean... Preach brother that's my kind of gospel
I’m still struggling except now I’m experiencing chest pains. Can’t lift my body to turn over w my left arm. Thank you for this. A light needs to be shined on what we go through. So thank you 💔
3 years clean!!! So many won't understand the big deal, but so many will.. it can happen everyone try and you shall succeed.. hardest thing I've ever done and continue to do, isn't a day that goes by i don't want to go get high.... stay strong and i wish you luck everyone
I was an addict until my salvation, having gone through withdrawals many times, and methadone clinic twice. Every day is another day to fight my demons, and being truly bipolar doesn't help. Now I'm in pain management with the poison I was addicted to, but for two years I've fought the temptation, all glory to God
I love ya son. From you oldest fan (I think, 58 years old. Discovered you two weeks ago) Fighting the demons like you are. WE can do this. Thank you for your help through music.
You have nothing to be ashamed of. You be proud and take it day by day. There will be a lot of slips but you keep trying. God brought you thru this n too this for a reason. You have so much more to you then your addiction! You are Burden, Gods child, and he knows what's in your heart and will never, no matter what, abandon you. 'Footsteps' is my most favorite poem. If you don't know it please look it up. God bless you
Snapped my spine and got hooked on opiates. Couldn't work, couldn't play with my kids or kick the depression from feeling helpless. Still a fight and always will be. But I'm clean fighting this fight. Thanks for this Burden. I needed a reminder of what I can't go back to. Stay woke my guy! 🤘🤘🤘💪💪💪
I am proud of you Burden. We aren't supposed to be perfect. That's why Jesus died for us! Addiction is a disease that is terribly hard to maintain. I listen to your lyrics every day. You have came a long way! Quit kicking yourself. Do unto others the way you want to be treated. Pay your tithes, and ask for forgiveness every day. You are a Crusader for Christ!!!
Absolutely amazing, I relate to this so much & feel so blessed to be alive, songs like this keep me motivated to stay clean & I love it! Props to you Burden, keep killin' the game!! 💯😍💪🔥🔥
This hit home man. I been going thru stuff similar. Even down to 6 and a half years as well. THIS is the motivation I needed. Thank you for lifting me up man.
This is real shit 20 years of this life is enough for me. I'm in sober living Oxford house community. They are my family now. My higher power guides me and this music is like my medicine. Keep on keeping on bro. #RecoveryStrong
Bro im a single dad of two and i have been fighting addiction for alot of years. Its fuckin hard for sure. You just have to have something to believe in brother!!! I believe in you. Me and my five year old jams out to it. Powerful stuff my man. I live in Pennsylvania.
You're AWESOME!!!! Addiction is Not who you are. It's the Beast that you're feeding. Mental, Physical and Spiritual. Only God and you can set you free. 33 years sober. It was a bitch getting here, but like you said it's defiantly worth it. God bless and Never give up. You are worth it.
7 years going in 8 now just one day at a time bro no one can do it alone people don’t understand it if they haven’t been there to go threw wat we been threw they see threw a different glass than we do keep it up the songs r fire and so true with today
BURDEN SPEAKIN THAT TRUTH, SOMETHING ALOT OF THESE SO CALLED RAPPERS FORGOT ABOUT OR JUST PLAN DON'T KNOW ABOUT! MAD LOVE HOMIE JUST KEEP HITTIN US WITH THAT REAL SHIT FAM! 💯
What I have always liked about you Burden is the fact you are real ,your story the sheet you have been through and the way you feel as so many of us do . Keep fighting the real fight I got your 6 brother
Just discovered you & I absolutely love this! Believe me, I know the struggle. I know the miserable life that addiction brings. I almost lost everything from this shit. I started eating fentanyl patches when I was only 15 years old. When I could no longer afford or find those I turned to heroin. I was doing other drugs too of course, whatever I could my hands on tbh. I should really be fuckin dead rn. I should’ve died many times actually.. I’m not religious at all but there must be some reason I’m still here. Whatever it is, I’m still not sure. I’m 24 now & 2 1/2 years clean from heroin, but on suboxone maintenance. I know some people don’t consider you to be clean if you’re on any maintenance drug. & I understand that it is trading one addiction for another but at the same time, as long as I’m not sticking a needle in my arm or doing grimey ass shit just to get my heroin fix, then I’m fucking proud of myself. That was a huge step for me. I never thought I’d be able to quit. Anyway, you’re an amazing artist, please never give up. 🖤
Damn pain pills, Appalachia's former economy along with the coal. They all have a hook, but with the power to notice; along with calling ones own bs.. it was there I found the plans for victory. Got the Cd's today, fuckin awesome n many thanks! You've got an army behind ya brother ~ One Love
I'm fighting the battle of addiction. I have been completely sober from everything, will be a year in July. I'm all alone and pregnant and scared. I sometimes feel if I pick up the pipe, pick up the joint it would take the pain away. God has been showing up, my life is slowly turning around. I deserve sobriety, to feel good about solving my problems without using. I deserve to be proud of myself for choosing therapy and working on myself. Sometimes guilt and pain are hard to cope with. I know with God, help, I got this.
For those that Don’t KNOW…☝️ Don’t LEARN!!!! For those that …. KNOW!!! Everyday is a blessing God is with you That’s all you GOD!!!! Thank YOU 🙏 AGAIN B THIS ONE HITS HOME nothing feels worse than fallin off (relapsing) and witnessing first hand the disappointment ripple affect a stupid decision causes usually ending up in life changing truth Wake up Masterpiece B THANKS 🙏 AGAIN!!!!! ❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🦗💭🔥❤️🔥
I can relate brotha. It's a life long battle. No matter what, you can, anyone can do it. It's hard. I've got 2 1/2 yrs now. Stay focused y'all. First things first ✊
My man 👏👏 u keep it up brother. Government wants u to be on 💩 so they can take your freedom and control u. Hard times are coming and we gonna need every warrior that we can get. And u are warrior for sure if u won that battle. Love and respect my brother
Man sleeping in my car for the last two months I no longer use anything , clean and sober , I relate to this so much !! Your music gets me thru the day man , bless you homie 🙏
Hey homie. 3 years ago I had to sleep in my broke down Toyota Avalon mid winter for 3 months and froze every night. Was embarrassed when they knocked on my window and woke me up and forced me to move spots. I drank every night in that car but woke up at 4 AM every morning to bust my ass cause I had a 3 yr old little girl relying on me. Know that it's these moments that will build your character and strength. If you can climb from this you can anything don't you dare give up 🙏
This year I had a month sober off cannabis and three weeks off synthicals. But my mind gets stuck on painful shit and wont cease so i go seeking the best way i know how to medicate. This track isn't the first Burden track that brought tears to me. But this is the realist shit. I quit drinking just over ten years ago. And im bout to celebrate with a bottle of Privilege Hennessy. 🎉😅

Hope your staying clean my friend. I battled heroin for at least 15 year been off for 3 years suboxone has saved my life. I do know the struggle, lived it for many years wanted to quit so many times but never could. Blessing to you and I hope you make it. I lost way to many friends and family from it and almost myself to many times to count. It is possible!!
So frocking true I need more people to relate to that won’t judge!
I've been dealing with alcoholism because I lost too much too quick and I'm fighting myself to get out of it and it's controlling me. It takes ahold of me. I'm tryna to save myself. It's just not easy
Sadly only like 10% of us heroin addicts get and stay clean. Homeless friendless family gave up sleeping on loading docks but only when you could hustle enough dope that you could slam that plunger down and forget that you’re laying on concrete with out even a blanket feeling dirty ass with a burning itch because last time you felt well enough to want to clean up and went to take a nutsack butthole underarm and face wash in some gas station or grocery store bathroom some worker or security threatened the cops ..so hollow so empty that you couldn’t cry if someone shot your mom in front of you right there (unless you are dope sick then your eyes are non stop watering) making random addict homeless 20-60 hour friendships where you combine your crimes and get healthy dose of high and spend who knows how many hours tweeking around digging in dumpsters and peoples cars with them talking like you are making some kinda bond because you’re starved for feeling like a human before one of you just wanders off or takes Off so they don’t have to share the last of the dope...rinse repeat., feeling like society doesn’t even see you or if they do you must resemble a dead rat or pile of trash the way people look right through you like you aren’t there but do manage to step around you
But still choosing to chase that bliss even though 70% of the time your dog ass sick or fighting the clock to find some cash and beat the dope sick clock ...still only 10% make it. If you made it walk tall motherfuckr you are strong
Keep pushing fam I'm 25 been on em since about 18 yrs old it's a never ending cycle but only the strong survive yanno you could tell a beautiful story one day to somebody like us don't give up keep pushing !!!
One of the realest songs I ever heard still fighting but won't ever give up.
As I lay here in my bed fighting this song helps me make it threw the night , the looking in the mirror feel disappointment part hits hard . I can do this same as you can brother , ty for sharing this masterpiece. As I read some of these comments I know others needed this song as well , we all can do this . God bless everyone struggling with this addiction, I pray for you all .
I pray you made it thru! 🙏🏼
im praying for you and you can beat this with GOD
God bless you, too.
Startn my recovery today ❤ yesturday was breakn point
I like burden cause all the 🔥 he spits is just all real bought his life and nothing fake. Also this song has nice beat and a nice melody. Just 💯🔥
I got goosebumps
I'm tearing up.
This song is my life. I just went 90 days sober and drank last night.
Man. Thank you for this song bro.
Yea I almost teared up ngl
If I could win my war with temptation everyday and stay clean and sober for over a decade than anyone can.. This the type of shit I like most and write myself .. The real authentic from the heart honesty about our struggles... Good work my man and much respect
Aye good for you. Congratulations on your clean time. You're doin it...
I've been battling pill addiction for about 15yrs and have relapsed a few times and when I heard this song it literally brought me to tears! I now listen to this song everyday to remind me to keep fighting because there is so much pride in being able to say you're clean! Even if it's just a day, a year or more it's always a demon riding along with you! Love your music bro and just know you inspire a lot of people!
this hits a lot deeper when you really deal with all of these demons.. no matter how good I do for others, no matter how I live, no matter what I do. Ive accepted that even tho I don't want to be, most of the time im the bad guy in everyones story. stay blessed bruh
True ! 💯
It really speaks to you if you share the same problems and you can FEEL where hes comin from
Absolutely.
about 20yrs ago I started using cocaine with some friends on the weekends. 6 months later I was a full-blown crack addict.. I had my "rock bottom" moment when I had traded my truck and my motorcycle of crack and was getting kicked out of my house due to non-payment. I never once stole from anyone or hurt anyone due to my addiction, not once. I lived on the streets for about 6 months putting myself back together, all on my own. After that, I havent used since. But, even to this day I am looked upon by my family as a crackhead. If someone misplaces something, Im thought to have stolen it.. This is after 20yrs of being clean, and having never been a thief, even during my addiction. Im a family man now, a business owner, making my way in this world, and even 20yrs later people that know of my past still treat me this way. Its so disheartening :(
@@SwiggitySwagDopeInTheBag its sad how true that is... no matter how good you become or start changing for the better people will always hold that cloud overhead... well shit man im glad you're doing a whole lot better keep striving to be better. much love and respect forreal!
Speaking truth facts
😢
Just found you a couple of weeks ago. Been hooked on you since man. Keep going and stay cut throat brotha
3 years and still love this😭
~I am 8 years sober this year, and this song has helped me so much. I can’t thank you enough for this track my brother, it’s helped me throughout my battle~
"This shit is poison...sick and tired of lookin in the mirror and feelin disappointment"... .........a song I tend to come back to alot.
How are you?
This song is a beautiful gift 💝 just like discovering you was a blessing . I look up to you a lot, you give me so much confidence thank you🙏
I just lost my son’s father to addiction on the 7th of February…. my head feels like it’s spinning…. I can’t believe he’s gone… all I can do is hold our son so close to me… I’m so lost right now… he was doing so well.. I never thought it would be him… I miss him so much it hurts so bad. I’m so angry and I don’t think I’ve fully processed everything that has happened yet. Our son looks just like him. I hope that you’re flying high and no longer in pain my love… Alvin Geovany Martinez 02-21-1990 - 02-07-2024. I really hope that there is a life after death and that you’re down here watching over Odin and I… I promise that I will stay strong for our son. I love you. I hope that you’re proud of me. I need your strength right now. I could really use one of our talks. You always made me feel stronger, I miss you… I love you.. and I hope that wherever you are now, that one day we will meet again..
Hey bro, 127 days clean today. Currently @ EastHaven Halfway House up in MN. I've been a fan since you came out with "What am I on". Hope to catch one of your shows. Hearing this really inspires me!!!
You got this man. Never give up. 2 1/2 years clean from heroin 🖤 you’re worthy of living a healthy & happy life.
One day at a time bro. Proud of you.
Head up bro stay on the right path...
I love all y'all
big facts bro
This song hit every single emotion of mine. I could have never put these words together more perfectly and you may have written it based on what you’re going through and feeling but understand that it’s exactly the same for me.
No judgment, just think, your so talented and how much more you could do with a clear head. Prayers to you!
Your not alone every word in this song is my life too. You made feel less alone. Mad love, Mad peace and respect, brother. Dropping Rose's for you while we are both still alive. ♥️ 🌹🌹
Fought the Demons for eight years and have been clean for 3 years luv your music and your inspiration will help countless people dealing with addiction Awesome things come to Awesome people 😀💯👍💥🇺🇲
Dam this song is deep af.. I felt every word💪💪💯
You just need to find the right people to be in your life don't let them change you. I don't have friends and the reason why because I don't go out and party,drink,drugs and I don't like problems in my life. I'm very lucky that I have a family that loves me and raise me right. God bless you
Love how you kept it completely raw and open but with the most melodic vibe I think it really helps to understand the story also very easy to relate been on repeat since I’ve heard it
I love this song …. It’s full of raw emotion which is rare in songs …. Stay blessed Burden ❤
20 years addicted to opiates/opioids, 11 years in a methadone clinic, and last 5 on suboxone. Today is 1 week free from being trapped in the cycle.
Get a big sac of kratom three teaspoons a day and work your way down. I’m 80 days clean and sober it helped a lot. 15 year garbage head if you want it then go for it🙏
@@kitty10141 been doing the Kratom for 5 months. Never really did much for me the fist 4-6 weeks and one day it smacked me upside the head. In all honesty I indulged. Been working my way down to what got me 1 week now lasts 3. It can grab you like the other stuff but not as bad.
@@kitty10141 correction 4 months
Hope you made it out brother.
Congratulations keep strong. I went through the same shit.
Been an addict since I was 12 now I'm 45 started my sobriety 19 days ago when I went to jail again been out a week so far doing good hopefully I can maintain this time. Great music keep up the good work and keep fighting
7 years in a herion addiction 1 week ago I was 5 years clean and sober I finally have the life I always wanted met the girl of my dreams having our first baby and I can always depend on her when I struggle I started doing addiction talks and podcasts and I released a book I'm proud of the man Ive become
😢Thank you for this
To everyone struggling, I watched someone close to me go through this almost exactly. Stay strong, each day clean is a battle won, until eventually the worst of the war is won and you didnt even realize it. And don't ever be afraid to reach out, even if that person can't understand exactly, if they love you they will try.
Bro song still hit me.
4 years clean off everything bruh I was 120 pounds when I was in active addiction shit takes everything from you I'm proof of that but hey life is so much better I can hold down a job I got a kid on the way ODAAT so I felt that songs 💯 keep doing bruh proud of you

My son struggles with Addiction this helps me try and understand what hes going threw. Thank you I love this

Sober since I was 19 man thank god for the forcing my family did to save my life. I get to be 27 today no drugs drinking steroids nothing no heroin. 8 years sober man life is fucking good today!
AC/DC's hard rock is my drug of choice.
It's good to know you'll find Burden's music helpful to dealing with addictions of all kinds.
I've always said the hardest thing in life is living sober
Glad to see some positive things happenning in this country and it's politicians gone cray....cray
You nailed it down on this one brother. Been alcoholic for 20 years. Its a war. We fight, we slip, we fall,we get up and try again. The stigma around us keeps us alone when all that we seek is a hand. So we help eachother. We ain't weak so long as we never give up. Thank you for all your music and all you do to speak for those of us who share this with you. Proud to call you my brother.
I have been recovered today from the hopeless state of mind and body and the obsession to drink and get high has been removed one day at a time for almost 2 years because I live the 12 steps of AA!! God is good.
I have to say is thank you like you're honesty is the best therapy for a lot of people like us.
A lot of us have no reason to look forward to anything except for when somebody like you like us has actually made it and beat it out thank you for sharing everything.
Listening to this song on repeat. Coming to terms with my addiction and finding the motivation to give quitting another shot. Your music inspires me and I know it's saving lives. Thank you for your brutal honesty and openness. Best rapper in the game for years now.
Bro thats speaking volumes 14+ yrs battling this shit and I'm 28. Half my life been spent battling demons and I feel exactly how u say it bro. The shit is poison but ur right. My greatest accomplishment is nothing without my greatest downfalls.
Bruh the struggle is real.. I ant never felt a song like I do this one 20 years spoon feedn... Almost 3 clean... Preach brother that's my kind of gospel
I LOVE THIS. Burden you have one of the best sounds and flows I’ve ever heard.
I’m still struggling except now I’m experiencing chest pains. Can’t lift my body to turn over w my left arm.
Thank you for this. A light needs to be shined on what we go through. So thank you 💔
This is beautiful can I be proud of 35 days? I feel this song like no other.
Hell yes you can!!
So much truth in one song 😢
3 years clean!!! So many won't understand the big deal, but so many will.. it can happen everyone try and you shall succeed.. hardest thing I've ever done and continue to do, isn't a day that goes by i don't want to go get high.... stay strong and i wish you luck everyone
I was an addict until my salvation, having gone through withdrawals many times, and methadone clinic twice. Every day is another day to fight my demons, and being truly bipolar doesn't help. Now I'm in pain management with the poison I was addicted to, but for two years I've fought the temptation, all glory to God
Nobody can quit it but you!! LOVE BURDEN
I love ya son. From you oldest fan (I think, 58 years old. Discovered you two weeks ago) Fighting the demons like you are. WE can do this. Thank you for your help through music.
I missed ya while I was in prison. So glad to come home to your dope music.
Stand strong chick!!
I bet you were the hottest chick in the block
I missed u
@@robbyledford6954 lol
Damn Marissa..... you just to damn beautiful to be wasting time up in prison. Walk the straight line girl and keep ya head up.
You have nothing to be ashamed of. You be proud and take it day by day. There will be a lot of slips but you keep trying. God brought you thru this n too this for a reason. You have so much more to you then your addiction! You are Burden, Gods child, and he knows what's in your heart and will never, no matter what, abandon you. 'Footsteps' is my most favorite poem. If you don't know it please look it up. God bless you
Snapped my spine and got hooked on opiates. Couldn't work, couldn't play with my kids or kick the depression from feeling helpless. Still a fight and always will be. But I'm clean fighting this fight. Thanks for this Burden. I needed a reminder of what I can't go back to. Stay woke my guy! 🤘🤘🤘💪💪💪
Struggling with alcohol this song hits me in liver like makers mark. I love it but it's its better
Definitely one of the best underrated rappers!
I am proud of you Burden. We aren't supposed to be perfect. That's why Jesus died for us! Addiction is a disease that is terribly hard to maintain. I listen to your lyrics every day. You have came a long way! Quit kicking yourself. Do unto others the way you want to be treated. Pay your tithes, and ask for forgiveness every day. You are a Crusader for Christ!!!
💯💯
Absolutely amazing, I relate to this so much & feel so blessed to be alive, songs like this keep me motivated to stay clean & I love it! Props to you Burden, keep killin' the game!! 💯😍💪🔥🔥
Bout time for someone like You!We shall follow!!
This hit home man. I been going thru stuff similar. Even down to 6 and a half years as well. THIS is the motivation I needed. Thank you for lifting me up man.
Those songs that give you the chills cause you can relate to it 100%. I’m just finding out about you and loving it so far!!
He Knows How to Make his music With His Heart and experience 💯
This is real shit 20 years of this life is enough for me. I'm in sober living Oxford house community. They are my family now. My higher power guides me and this music is like my medicine. Keep on keeping on bro. #RecoveryStrong
Got my cds today good looking out homie keep doing you and keep your head up and fighting. Dont ever give up much love.
If only we knew now before we started so innocent. What a different type of life I would of lived
No other song hits me as hard as this. I've already replayed this song over 50 times. I need help.
Bro im a single dad of two and i have been fighting addiction for alot of years. Its fuckin hard for sure. You just have to have something to believe in brother!!! I believe in you. Me and my five year old jams out to it. Powerful stuff my man. I live in Pennsylvania.
Your a very gifted person with a voice that needs to be heard 💥💯 burden stay up yo
Hell yeah 4/17/21 after 20 years I'm 37 and loving life like never before. Stand up✌
My sobriety date is August 19.2019 almost 2 years.....🙏 to everyone going through addiction...great song Burden... 🔥
You're AWESOME!!!! Addiction is Not who you are. It's the Beast that you're feeding. Mental, Physical and Spiritual. Only God and you can set you free. 33 years sober. It was a bitch getting here, but like you said it's defiantly worth it. God bless and Never give up. You are worth it.
I love this song. Ive been clean and sober since 5/23/2020.
Thank you !! And check my merch out if you’d like to support 🙏 shop.burdenworld.com
7 years going in 8 now just one day at a time bro no one can do it alone people don’t understand it if they haven’t been there to go threw wat we been threw they see threw a different glass than we do keep it up the songs r fire and so true with today
BURDEN SPEAKIN THAT TRUTH, SOMETHING ALOT OF THESE SO CALLED RAPPERS FORGOT ABOUT OR JUST PLAN DON'T KNOW ABOUT! MAD LOVE HOMIE JUST KEEP HITTIN US WITH THAT REAL SHIT FAM! 💯
What I have always liked about you Burden is the fact you are real ,your story the sheet you have been through and the way you feel as so many of us do . Keep fighting the real fight I got your 6 brother
Just discovered you & I absolutely love this! Believe me, I know the struggle. I know the miserable life that addiction brings. I almost lost everything from this shit. I started eating fentanyl patches when I was only 15 years old. When I could no longer afford or find those I turned to heroin. I was doing other drugs too of course, whatever I could my hands on tbh. I should really be fuckin dead rn. I should’ve died many times actually.. I’m not religious at all but there must be some reason I’m still here. Whatever it is, I’m still not sure.
I’m 24 now & 2 1/2 years clean from heroin, but on suboxone maintenance. I know some people don’t consider you to be clean if you’re on any maintenance drug. & I understand that it is trading one addiction for another but at the same time, as long as I’m not sticking a needle in my arm or doing grimey ass shit just to get my heroin fix, then I’m fucking proud of myself. That was a huge step for me. I never thought I’d be able to quit.
Anyway, you’re an amazing artist, please never give up. 🖤
This song hits me so hard cry everytime ur word are amazing so ture love this
Wow Bro sounds like u listened to me talk to God........Been Clean 5 years now.... You never cease to Amaze me
🙏 You will be alright...Thank you for sharing such a personal message...💕
Damn pain pills, Appalachia's former economy along with the coal. They all have a hook, but with the power to notice; along with calling ones own bs.. it was there I found the plans for victory. Got the Cd's today, fuckin awesome n many thanks! You've got an army behind ya brother ~ One Love
I'm from SE Kentucky. I feel everything your saying brother.
That’s love 💯🎵♾
Stay strong and keep busy keep pushing forward you are apart of the few in this world that God will bless don't lose faith in yourself you got this
I'm fighting the battle of addiction. I have been completely sober from everything, will be a year in July. I'm all alone and pregnant and scared. I sometimes feel if I pick up the pipe, pick up the joint it would take the pain away. God has been showing up, my life is slowly turning around. I deserve sobriety, to feel good about solving my problems without using. I deserve to be proud of myself for choosing therapy and working on myself. Sometimes guilt and pain are hard to cope with. I know with God, help, I got this.
Keep pushing. Proud of you for getting where you are. There are people cheering you on that you don't even know.
U made grown ass man cry 😔.
Thank u brother for showing me I'm not alone.
Love and respect forever for this
For those that Don’t KNOW…☝️
Don’t LEARN!!!!
For those that …. KNOW!!!
Everyday is a blessing
God is with you
That’s all you GOD!!!!
Thank YOU 🙏 AGAIN

THIS ONE HITS HOME

Been there!!! Numbness neats the hell outta the pain!!!! Great song!!!! Holding tight, grip is weak!!! Try!!! TRY!!!♥️♥️♥️♥️💯
Who dare drop a dislike on this song. Your not alone brother.
Sick people.... smh
Addiction is real. It doesn’t matter what someone’s political view points are.
I can relate brotha. It's a life long battle. No matter what, you can, anyone can do it. It's hard. I've got 2 1/2 yrs now. Stay focused y'all. First things first ✊
My man 👏👏 u keep it up brother. Government wants u to be on 💩 so they can take your freedom and control u. Hard times are coming and we gonna need every warrior that we can get. And u are warrior for sure if u won that battle.
Love and respect my brother
Man sleeping in my car for the last two months I no longer use anything , clean and sober , I relate to this so much !! Your music gets me thru the day man , bless you homie 🙏
Glad to hear it homie. Keep your head up things will get better 💯💯
Hey homie. 3 years ago I had to sleep in my broke down Toyota Avalon mid winter for 3 months and froze every night. Was embarrassed when they knocked on my window and woke me up and forced me to move spots.
I drank every night in that car but woke up at 4 AM every morning to bust my ass cause I had a 3 yr old little girl relying on me. Know that it's these moments that will build your character and strength. If you can climb from this you can anything don't you dare give up 🙏
This year I had a month sober off cannabis and three weeks off synthicals. But my mind gets stuck on painful shit and wont cease so i go seeking the best way i know how to medicate.
This track isn't the first Burden track that brought tears to me.
But this is the realist shit.
I quit drinking just over ten years ago. And im bout to celebrate with a bottle of Privilege Hennessy.
🎉😅
