    This is a great song. I was sexually assaulted by my neighbor when I lived in my own apartment. He got sentenced to jail for it and I read a statement to him in court to tell him how I felt. A lifetime protection order is keeping him away from me even though he has passed away. I’m a survivor who shares my story with others.

    This song came out during very dark time in my life. I won't say what, but it was brutal and broke me completely. I remember playing this song repeatedly and crying.

      @@p.j.morris633 Thank you for sharing your story and kind words to me. I'm sorry for your loss and all you had to deal with.
      I dealt with domestic violence. As my counselor told me, the abuse was every form of it that there is, including rape. It took me many years to finally escape it. Prior to that, there was abuse from a parent for most of my childhood. In total, 36 years of it. I have C-PTSD and anxiety. I am doing better, especially at night or in public, if my dog is with me. I've had a dog ever since I got away from my abuser. I'm old enough that I grew up in a time when abuse was seen as "what happens behind closed doors, stays behind closed doors." It simply wasn't discussed. That leaves a person feeling alone and isolated. Especially when the abuser is well liked by others. No one wants to believe they are capable of what they had done. I felt dirty, ashamed, and unworthy of love. I was made to believe it was my fault and I deserved it. It has taken years to process it all in my mind and accept that I wasn't the problem. This song seemed to say many of the things that I couldn't find the words for. As time went on, it became an anthem of strength and survival.

As a survivor of child abuse & a dyfunctional family of Incest denial---it is with songs like this that I find comfort when I am weak over my own issues to heal & that I also am given strength to advocate about child abuse prevention to others. Abuse is real. Abuse is destructive. Abuse is a sad reality for too many. Thank you Big & Rich for sharing a great song of substance!

That abuse went on until I was 17. I went years not saying a word because I thought I would be blamed for what they did to me. I never told a soul until I was 30 yrs old.

    Two things that I have noticed with this song. 1) It no longer hides the abuse that females go thru at the hands of family members and it brings that dark hidden shame that they feel and the song says its ok to talk about it and receive healing inside where its most needed and yes some men have gone thru sexual abuse as a child as well and need support, hope, love and healing just like ladies do as well and 2) Rich is a natural tenor when he sings with Kenny since he is almost always an octave higher then Kenny..

      The reason is because it’s too personal and people out there don’t want personal. Maybe somewhere in them this happened and rather than face it they ignore it and even criticize others for facing their pain when they cannot. Those haters are the ones we must understand the most. The one’s talking are on their road to a better life. Those attacking are hiding and want everyone to think there is nothing hidden in them that they can’t bring out or some don’t even remember. That’s their defensive pattern. Attack and hide. The ones who are testifying here have that hope we all need. The negative have lost hope a long time ago and can only feel safe when attacking others who they consider weak. They that hold that pain in are the ones who can hurt or lash out so others will feel their pain. All and I mean all who turn to the darkness have a story that in their lives changed them. Some have such pain and hatred the only thing they know is to cause pain. There the cycle of pain never stops. Some don’t want help. Some cry out for help. Some just give up. It depends on the inner strength of each of us. There is were our free will comes in. Do we make ourselves better or do we continue that chain of giving pain usually to the ones that means the most to us. It’s up to us. You pray for help and guidance this is also thought of as a weakness. But we must find the strength we have to help us when it’s our worst. The hatters understand the words of songs like this but the words are too close to their real truths. So they must project this as a weakness. Or they will have to face their own fears and hatred.

    A BIG "THANK YOU" To "Big & Rich", for this song! I was the victim of a brutal rape, & sodomy, when I was a virgin at age 18. It CHANGED my WHOLE life! Survivor's don't need judgement. They need SUPPORT! This is a song meant for healing...the only song written, in my opinion, that clearly shows support for those who were victim's, as well as show the humanity of "some" decent, and empathetic people. The fact that 2 MEN sing this song, well; It quite frankly makes it even more beautiful, and healing. As a songwriter, myself, I can enjoy and respect life-changing lyrics....ty, for writing, and singing this song....because so many of us need to be heard....our cries may never truly stop, but it's nice to know that someone, or some thing, can help the hurt fade away...if for just a few minutes....

    I was assaulted October of 2003, I was 14. I thought he was 16, he was 19. When I got uncomfortable with the situation I asked him to leave, he tore my shirt off. I ran to the bathroom and locked the door. He broke it down. I hated life for a long time. My mom played this song once and I started crying. This has been one of my favorites since. It put words to how I felt when I couldn't do it myself.

A memory you can never forget but you can learn to go on and live with it with someone who does understand and will help you heal...

    Big and Rich I grew up being a victim from my step dad myself along with my sister. After becoming a teenager thinking marriage was my saving grace, quickly turned into 15 years of pure hell. Was saved from the first one thinking I finally met the right man I remarried first 3 years were great after losing a baby it turned south quickly the husband turned to Alcohol then turned on me. I was the blame for everything and evidently I deserved every last beating I took from the first husband. I want to thank you for this song it means a lot to me Big Rich I'm sorry your Sister had to experience such pain I'm sorry anyone ever has to endure such hatred. I myself will remain behind my doors I will never make the mistake of trusting anyone again. To allow a man to get close to me is too dangerous, and I will never trust another man as long as I live. I have dogs for companionship that's all I need and I have friends and the family I talk to and my life is good. This song is truly beautiful

    This song means a lot to me and really hits home... December 20th 2011 I was raped at gun point walking home from a babysitting job.... The pain, embarrassment, and shame I felt was so overwhelming. For weeks all I could do was try to drink away the memory but nothing seemed to be strong enough to drown the pain. My rapist was arrested that night and eventually he ended up being released from jail.... They didn't have enough evidence on him to convict him.... Every night I cried and screamed asking God why didn't he let the rapist shoot me, why would he let something like this happen. I ended up partying drinking, and eventually got pregnant about 3 months later. It was shortly after I found out I was pregnant I first heard this song and it slowly helped me heal along with the beautiful life I was carrying inside me. Since then I've met an amazing man who became my husband and we now have 1 child together another on the way and he's the only father my daughter knows. Plus I gained a handsome stepson when we got married... All 3 kids are happy to welcome a baby brother into their lives as are we and I've been able to move on from that horrible night.
