WOW. Amen bro. This is inspiring. Feel for this dude X and his family. Can't imagine if my life was cut at 20, I was unsaved and out of control.. but by Gods grace I was given another chance. We can't take life for granted. God bless the youth, save them Lord Jesus.
Wow.... That's a deep and powerful song fam. Really got me thinking. I started doing Civil Rights & Racial Equality work when I was 15 and felt called to be a Pastor soon after. A few months ago I fell off and been smoking drinking partying multiple nights a week everything...... That song got me really thinking. I'm 20 now same age as X. Please pray for his family, me, and everyone tryna find their way.
Kierahn J. Count Me In, I’m witchu goin thru that same storm..It Ain’t Easy At All, But We Gotta Strive & Hustle for that Crown!! The Time Is Soo Near, May The Lord Help Us Get In His Lane 🙏🏼
Kierahn J. I've been there and I'm 33. The enemy tries to sift us like wheat, but God. He loves you, and as long as there is breath in your body, there is Grace from God for you! I pray that you forgive yourself, and allow God to heal the hurt that caused this disconnect between you and your Power Source(Jesus)
@@NFan_37 I am actually, job wise leaves much to be desired, but I am back full swing into Civil Rights and I am very slowly learning to trust God again, but I don't feel like Ministry and being a Pastor is for me. I have biblical knowledge from those years and it helps now. I appreciate you asking 💯
I didn’t listen to x, I knew his struggles tho. This song is truly amazing and emotional and looks at everything that happened from a different point of view. Thank you Ty Brasel for this
This deserve to be on the radio. In memory I hope the whole world all his fam and his fans can hear this. Words from the heart! We love you Ty. You the difference in this world keep it up and don’t stop doing it for the Lord. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Isaac Hilty The world needs Christ... Its all in the Bible hard hearts, no love. We live in a world of lies.. 23 yrs. Of my life in the streets. Not talking nickle and dime or block either. God save my life more than 5 times. I should be 6ft. Deep or doing 65 plus... God is love.. True love... Everyone has failed you, try CHRIST... God bless... Glory to God🙏🙌☝👆☝🙌🙏
Wow! Where do I begin? Bout to be a long post. First, I'm not familiar with X's music, but knew of his troubles, so the sudden news of his death touched me. I mourn for the precious soul gone too soon. Second, this song touched me too. True art is passionate, honest, almost rough around the edges. This song embodies all of that. Dope work, Ty Brasel.
I love ya for this Ty man, I felt the same, RIP X, I didn't listen to too much of his music and regardless of his past, no one deserves to die that young without at least trying to be better, Blessings 🙏🙏🙏🙏
very deep, and well written... it reminds me of your song the game. "if i die in vein wont that be a shame, and if i leave the game would they love me the same" We love you ty! keep pushing bro
Ty brasel, you bro are truly genuine. This is real life and people don’t understand that all the time. You make Christian rap a whole new level. I can relate to the songs you make bro. Praying for favor and God’s hand to be on you and your family man! Heavy heart.
Wow this is really really awesome im really really impressed and proud of you Young T Ive watched you from the jump its super touching to see your growth and Gods hand on your life and craft !! Bless up king !! No reply needed
This is insane Ty. Truly touching. Love the twist to me and you instead of X at the end. I didn't hear his music much. But I've looked into it some since his passing. Sad to see him go before he came out of it all, like you have in hearing your testimony. Beautiful song.
I just started checking out who x was cuz I listened to strictly more Christian styled rap but man x was really was making changes in his life he was really working to get to light but God bless x and his family man. Love the song Ty this is my favourite from you🙏🙏😭💯🔥
Ty brasel even though your a Chrsitian you still make a song for someone that did bad things in his life that's a type of Chrsitian we need X, I don't care if you wasnt a Christian, you was still inspiring the devil was mad because you took over the fight and the devil being selfish, your the best X 🙏🏽🙏🏾 love you forever
Thx #TyBrasel i #thankGod4u i needed this right now......feeling the lost too #HolyGhostFieAH #WarOnMusic #daCHARGEDLife #uRdaCHURCH #iAmDaCHURCH #weRDaCHURCH #weRStillHere
Keoni Gaskin true.. i know he wasnt Christian but its sad to see X turning his life around without repenting.. Only if he had more time. He has a song where it sounds like he’s praying to God, so hopefully he repented before he died but we will never truly know
One year ago today. Crazy. When this happened, I was feeling down. But it was the beginning of something new in me. I'm here today. 🙏🏾 God is good. Even in death. "Nothing that the light can't save".
God wants you to be connected with yourself . Take this song for example , writing about his heavy heart and expressing how he feels with the assurance that God wants us to do that . Good job man, you’ve been a huge inspiration to me
Being honest I hate that I gotta be on yt to listen to this I wish I could buy it it’s such a good song and for me it applies to many more aspects of my life that makes me think
Lyrics
Hook:
I got a heavy heart
It’s weighing me down right now
I had to write this song
To try to get it off and let it out
I ain’t even cook my thoughts
All this emotion raw
Straight off the press
Weight on my chest
I gotta get it off
(X2)
Mhm I gotta get it off
Verse 1:
They killed X today
He the same age as my lil homie
Thinking what if that had been my lil homie
Murdered in broad day with cameras rolling
And twitter know it, before I do
Snapchat him while he laying lifeless
His mama don’t even know her baby dying
But the world do
Akademics got the full scoop
And people saying that my lil homie deserved it
But don’t nobody really know the full truth
They don’t know the trauma that he been through
And He ain’t perfect but is you, or are you
But back to the story I get the call to
Inform me of the news
I broke down and Fall to my knees
And ask why God
It’s things like this that got me paranoid
Sleepless nights and stare at the wall
Not breathing right from these anxious thoughts
Catch my breath and try not to drown in
I shed a tear just thinking bout it
And this only a hypothetical
I wrote a song and we gone sing about ya
Like Puff and faith, I’ll be missing you
But that’s just the cycle of the
Violence in the streets
It could be him or you or it be me
Just, wait until the reaper say repeat
Pour out a pint and say Rest In Peace, Yeah
Hook 2:
I got a heavy heart
It’s weighing me down right now
I had to write this song
To try to get it off and let it out
I ain’t even cook my thoughts
All this emotion raw
Straight off the press
Weight on my chest
(I gotta get it off)
(X4)
Verse 2:
I’m riding through the streets at midnight again
I ain’t even going nowhere I’m just circling
Music so loud it’s distortioning
I wish I could drown all the pain in the drugs
But in the morning it resurfaces
Life has a way of breaking you down it’s a shame
Yeah it’s unfortunate, yeah yeah
Life is a game
Life is a gamble
Do you just play the hand and take the chances
Devil circled back for the win
So he gone milly rock when he dances
I’m on the edge
I’m holding on to the ledge
I got a grip on the madness
Yeah, I got a grip on the
They killed X today
And he was tryna find his way
Yeah he gotta past real dark
But nothing that the light can’t save
I remember when I discovered him
I watched his interviews and studied him
I saw so much hate and love in him
I felt his pain he was a troubled man
His father wasn’t present to give presents
He preceded in the precinct
His mama wasn’t stable she was distant
It affected him mentally
It affected him when she neglected him
And hurt people hurt people, when you
Raised by the wolves
Raised by the streets
Criminal at 14
No love and guidance just drugs and weed
No therapy just rhymes and beats
He started rapping at like 16
Just like me and
Just like him I was lost to
Yeah I was off too
Decisions was wrong too
Feelings I harbored
I lost hope when they killed my Patna
I had built up anger against my father
I was rebelling against the preacher
Started selling drugs for the love of the dollar
Started treating all the females like objects
Big bro told me watch out for karma
But I ain’t believe in God or Allah
I was misguided I was disheartened yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
I started pushing my raps on the SoundCloud just like X did
I was 17 with a great gift
But all I wanted was to be famous
I sit and wonder what could’ve been
What if that was me instead of him
What if I had never found God
A 19 year old superstar
With many felonies and many charges And many chances and many pardons
And when I got a chance to change yeah
They took it all away, yeah
2 Bulletholes to my chest okay
They took it all away yeah
And they killed me today
While I was tryna find my way
And yeah I got a past real dark
But nothing that the light can’t save
Or if they killed you today
When you was tryna find your way
And yeah you got a past real dark
But nothing that the light can’t save
Hook 3:
I got a heavy heart
It’s weighing me down right now
I had to write this song
To try to get it off and let it out
I ain’t even cook my thoughts
All this emotion raw
Straight off the press
Weight on my chest
I had to get it off
Zander Shea i dont think he did
Zander Shea I'd really doubt it
Ty Brasel Thank you for sharing your gift with the world Ty. You really enhanced my perspective, I'm sharing this. RIP X 🙏🏾

WOW. Amen bro. This is inspiring. Feel for this dude X and his family. Can't imagine if my life was cut at 20, I was unsaved and out of control.. but by Gods grace I was given another chance. We can't take life for granted. God bless the youth, save them Lord Jesus.
NJ T facts bro
Save the youth Amen
NJ T AMEN
Straight facts
He wasn't "out of control" you obviously didn't look into him as a whole enough if that's really what you think.
Exactly. Nothing that the light can't save.
Yes mam

Bro we need to make a song together all for the glory of God I got something for you
Thank you for your vulnerability and rawness.
Blessings towards X and his parents and whole family
If we reject reaching out to the lives of needy sinners we should not call ourselves Christians.
