Just want ppl to know, we all suffer and go through things. Nobody is perfect. Johnny C is living proof. He has been a part of some amazing bands over the yrs. Was blessed w tremendous talent to sing. I hope that in time he can truly conquer his demons and be able to hopefully reunite w DGD, slaves and emarosa.. these combinations were just so necessary! Keep fighting everyone! You aren’t alone! Blessings!
"All the flags that were red, i told myself they were tinted" Perfectly describes the situation i was in, after my GF broke up with me two months ago 🙄 Love the intensity of this song and especially the lyrics!
the lyrics really hit me, because I'm living that right know, I loved someone that i made his demons mines, I was there for him every time he need it me, but he wasn't there for me, he hurt me, he lied and i allowed it, I was blind and stupid to think he will ever change, looking back, it hurts, hurts for all the love, time and energy i wasted, know i have to forgive myself for my mistakes, but something i learned is that you shouldn't changed or twist your values for someone that is lack of them and I have to remember that the relationship didn't work because of me, not because i wasn't enough, nothing was enough for him and because of that i feel sorry for him. You can't love someone else if you don't love yourself.
im sure you're better now, we all go through something like this one way or the other. Giving your all to someone who doesn't care hurts so much because you know its your all and you can't give more than that, what really helped me is remembering your worth. Sounds cheesy but once you accept that you deserve better it hurts less and less until it doesn't hurt no more.
I've had the same problem over and over. It can be hard for some of us to face the reality that it is better to be alone, than to give yourself up for another. I thought that I was respecting myself in my last relationship, but it was only a facade. On the inside I had already sacrificed my values and was clinging to something that I wanted to exist that didn't exist. Hopefully one of these days I will learn my lesson.
@@richardrampersad7687 thank you so much for your words and yes I'm way better now than before, as you said I had to learn my worth, all past year I learn more about myself and making peace with my demons and mistakes, I happier now and every day is a lesson
@@therealcoolc sometimes living in a lie is better than reality, but we have understand that even if the true or reality hurts is better faced than keep hurting yourself, takes time to learn but at the end you should be putting your happiness, your mental health and love first and than sacrifice your self for someone that is not worth it.
Me too dawg. What hurts.me was I choose ignorance bc I always knew how he was but I love him and appropriate toxic and abusive behavior. What hits.me hard is he has the potiential to not be a piece of shit but chooses to be and that's not my problem nor anything I have to stand for.... I'm the realest thing that's ever happened in his life but he clouds himself in materialism, vanity, and perceived perfectionism with social constructs and that just isn't me. What hurts me so much was how much I betrayed myself with how much I gave to him and let him take. He took advantage and he fucking knows and is guilt.written but all he does is think of himself. I spent three years of this shit and been trying to leave over a year but he wouldn't let go so I made him. I hope you've healed and done what you've needed to for yourself to be happy bc you deserve it
Ironically, the woman who loved this band and introduced me to them ended up fitting this description perfectly.. we went to see them live and it was awesome. I guess the only way these lyrics don't apply is because she isn't alone now, but I am. That's why I'm drunk looking it up on UA-cam.
Ok story time. So i was in a guitar center today buying some speaker with my dad. The guy helping us suggested that we hear the quality before we buy them and he played this song for us and i fell in love with the speakers and this song. I didnt get a chance to ask him what is was and we live kinda far from the store so i didnt want to ask my dad to turn around just so i could ask. Now i have social anxiety so asking in person would have already been bad enough but since i was complaining about not being able to remember wnough of the song to google it my dad sugested i call them and ask. Eventually not knowing what the rest of the song sounded like killed me and i called and asked for him and his dept. by name i got lut on hold for about 4 minutes and i when he finally answered my hands were shaking worse than a chihuahua in a snowstorm. But i explained the situation and he gave me the name of the song and band. I dont regret it one bit im glad i faced one of my fears today. This is truly and amazing song and the vocals are just heavenly 😊
Diamond Sampson I’m sure you know his name by now but it’s Jonny Craig. And yes he was also in dance Gavin dance, emarosa and he’s got some solo stuff out also. Other great vocalist of similar genre: Tyler carter (woe is me, issues) Tilian (dgd)
Not gonna lie. I was completely open to the new guy and I think some of his tracks are dope. But I prefer Johnny. Hopefully this cat proves me wrong in the future though.
Tan buenísima rola! Qué cada que la escucho de nuevo es cómo si fuera la primera vez. Una joya! Sin duda este vocalista dejó una huella muy grande en Slaves.
I’ve been listening to this on repeat for a while... and today I decided to look it up on UA-cam since I was searching up Spiritbox as well. I’m still shocked on how I didn’t know this was Jonny! Like no wonder I loved it soooo much! What the crap! I’m so excited. I didn’t even know about Slave till I found this song on Spotify! I don’t mind paying Spotify when it definitely knows what music to recommend. 💘💕💕 So damn happy about this discovery. Better late than never. 😆
bruh, I've been listening to this group for the past week or so.. and I was like MAN, this singer sounds like Johnny Craig man, he's good..! only to find out, it is freaking Johnny... 🤣🤣 this sht bangs man..
This song has the kind of buildup jonny needed to push his voice. Its open your eyes and look north pt IIWhat a beautiful voice, its safe to say jonny is back bois set it off!
I always felt uneasy when we weren't in the same place Taken back by the feeling that this could all go away She said "Baby I would never do what those girls do" Funny how I'd only hear that when it benefitted you Did I get too close? Didn't mean to have your true colors exposed Wait, did you ever take a moment just to think About anyone, anyone other than yourself? Give me back the love I wasted now Cold, one day it's gonna hit you you're alone I won't be there, won't be there It's cruel to turn around Give me back the love I wasted now It's your eyes that told me you were in it All the flags that were red I told myself they were tinted Then I noticed that you couldn't stand the sight of your own shadow Like the devil on your shoulder couldn't stand to wait much longer X Did I get too close? Didn't mean to have your true colors exposed Imperfections start to show That's when I wanted you more Wait, did you ever take a moment just to think About anyone, anyone other than yourself? Give me back the love I wasted now Cold, one day it's gonna hit you you're alone I won't be there, won't be there It's cruel to turn around Give me back the love I wasted now Give me back the love I wasted now Now, now Wait, did you ever take a moment just to think About anyone, anyone other than yourself? Give me back the love I wasted now Cold, one day it's gonna hit you you're alone I won't be there, won't be there It's cruel to turn around Give me back the love I wasted now
My Son, after college graduation, became a Soldier. Broke my heart but ended up breaking his. His fiancee broke up with him while he's deployed. My favorite song makes me cry now, thinking of him on the other side of the world in pain 😢
Hunter Boi Killua I was an 80s Club kid who transitioned into Nirvana (so glad I saw them) and then Avenged (saw the Rev's last tour) and The Used, Coheed, etc all while being a proper journalist then executive :) much easier to enjoy the same music as your kids. Thank you for your kind words. He is on the other side of the world hurting, she said she would never do this...the song hits home. I even taught my kids cross your arms, hand on each shoulder, elbows up. You won't get hit going through the crowd or if a pit breaks out. 😂
As a military fiance, I'm so sorry on her behalf. It's rough, but that doesn't excuse her actions. I really hope he is better and finds better. Keep your head up. He'll return to you someday.
@@jordanpowell228 nope he wouldnt cause at the beginning of the show they already know the winner behind the scenes and soo many good artists did lose at americas got talent and such
@@lostworldofjj right.... all im saying is if mainstream usa heard the dude sing, i can almost guarantee he would be a fan favorite by many who would have never known of him otherwise because of the genre of music he is a part of gets quickly written off
With that buildup it really is open your eyes and look north II jonny is flexing more than ever in slaves thats for sure. This is dbm1 vocals or even relativity🙌
DBM4L oh i agree with that 100% i haven’t heard this Jonny in a long ass time. This song reminds me of an emarosa song, and that’s when he was my favorite. Only song i felt that was him that slaves released was there’s only one god...
I used to be a serious dgd fan in highschool but dude once emarosa happened most music was ruined for me forever... I miss that and wish so bad he didn't mess it up because what they had was majestic. It was musical synergy they had a chemistry I rarely find now. I love most of his projects and I'm just now figuring out slaves this is my second song any recs???
Honestly when he was with those bands the audio mixing was pretty bad so the instrumentals drowned out his voice a lot so I'm very glad he moved on to flex his pipes. Also his voice is better than ever now, tf you mean?
Sucks when someone does you dirty like this. Some people just are not worth the time, stress and effort. Still sucks tho especially if its someone you have known a LONG time and really thought was that ONE friend that would always be there. Well life moves on and you grow and learn from it. Trust your gut always. I had doubts and red flags for years and ignored them.
RIP to Slaves. Anything Jonny touches is perfection and nobody can do any better.
Tilian does DGD better imo
Anything he touches also ends up in chaos, it's really sad bc he's so fucking talented!! I hope he gets clean for good, if he hasn't done already.
@@near5839 Tillian blooooows
hahaha no@@near5839
100% agree but johnny had a certian aspect that noone can touch@@near5839
That chorus is everything...and this should be the next actual music video with the band in it.
Agreed. Great chorus!
the best part of this song is between 0:00 - 03:30
2:54 - 3:05 chills those vocals and guitar

0:32 best part hands down. Love this song soooo much
Just found out today, and just found this today. After 14 years together this feels like a consolation.
How come you make such catchy choruses? Love it and can’t wait for the full length

Download Shazam :)
@@L_mason No.
Diamond Sampson look into the other bands he's was in, emarosa and dance Gavin dance :)
Cool story Hansel
Diamond Sampson I’m sure you know his name by now but it’s Jonny Craig. And yes he was also in dance Gavin dance, emarosa and he’s got some solo stuff out also.
Other great vocalist of similar genre: Tyler carter (woe is me, issues) Tilian (dgd)
I thought i was over my ex but this made me cry
Or you could have been moved by this beautiful song
My ex fiancee cheated on me with a friend of mine
Hang in there. It doesn't fully go away and you never forget but it does get easier with time. Hope these words help even in the smallest way.
Not gonna lie. I was completely open to the new guy and I think some of his tracks are dope.
But I prefer Johnny. Hopefully this cat proves me wrong in the future though.
This Song is PURE GOLD
It’s crazy how this is written in as Jonny going through this but this is basically what he made Taylor go through, i hope she finds peace one day
It's fked up.
What's the real backstory of what perspective the song is. Hes made third person songs of himself before.
I seriously can’t wait for the full album!
Iestyn Moyle Same here!
Those lyrics always give me chills, I love Johnny (And you, U)
Tan buenísima rola! Qué cada que la escucho de nuevo es cómo si fuera la primera vez. Una joya! Sin duda este vocalista dejó una huella muy grande en Slaves.
Best slaves song hands down.
Arcy Stem top 3 for sure though. Along with back to the roots and deadly conversations. My personal top 3
I’ve been listening to this on repeat for a while... and today I decided to look it up on UA-cam since I was searching up Spiritbox as well. I’m still shocked on how I didn’t know this was Jonny!

This song hits hard everytime I hear it.
This song hits so hard! Never realized how real these lyrics are... gahhhh I can relate so easy
Why is this song SO GOOOOOD?!😭💖🔥
this song helped me through the darkest time of my life
This should be the single.
I think this song is my favorite so far! 💕
This is definitely a top song from their new album!!!
I love you guys so much! Can't wait for full album!
bruh, I've been listening to this group for the past week or so..
and I was like MAN, this singer sounds like Johnny Craig man, he's good..!
only to find out, it is freaking Johnny... 🤣🤣
this sht bangs man..
I love his voice😍😍
Essa banda 😍 essa música ❤
This song has the kind of buildup jonny needed to push his voice. Its open your eyes and look north pt IIWhat a beautiful voice, its safe to say jonny is back bois set it off!
Fuck yeah I love this comment 🔥👌💛🎵
Imperfections started to show, that’s when I wanted you more is probably the realest shit I’ve ever heard….
underrated
69th like HUEHUE
I didn't know it was possible for music to be this good
The best recover from being in a relationship with a narcissist song I've ever heard.
So soulful! Great vibe. Great writing
Im so obsessed with you guys♡
Esto deberia de sonar en la Radio 🔥
Really liking this band!
Freaking Awesome song and his Amazing vocals, love this
*Give me back the love I wasted now.*
YurixRuz i wont be there 😂😂
It's cruel to turn around :(
😖😖
The words really fucking hit me in my feels like jeez. Like those words out of the whole song hit me so hard
Probably won't happen given a LOT of people in this world are like that.
I always felt uneasy when we weren't in the same place
Taken back by the feeling that this could all go away
She said "Baby I would never do what those girls do"
Funny how I'd only hear that when it benefitted you
Did I get too close?
Didn't mean to have your true colors exposed
Wait, did you ever take a moment just to think
About anyone, anyone other than yourself?
Give me back the love I wasted now
Cold, one day it's gonna hit you you're alone
I won't be there, won't be there
It's cruel to turn around
Give me back the love I wasted now
It's your eyes that told me you were in it
All the flags that were red I told myself they were tinted
Then I noticed that you couldn't stand the sight of your own shadow
Like the devil on your shoulder couldn't stand to wait much longer
X
Did I get too close?
Didn't mean to have your true colors exposed

Lol
how can pure crap be on the radio and jonny craig who is talent isnt? i will never understand
That will all change soon if not now
Ive always said put jonny Craig on American idol or one those type shows and i guarantee he makes it to the end or very very close to it
@@jordanpowell228 nope he wouldnt cause at the beginning of the show they already know the winner behind the scenes and soo many good artists did lose at americas got talent and such
@@lostworldofjj right.... all im saying is if mainstream usa heard the dude sing, i can almost guarantee he would be a fan favorite by many who would have never known of him otherwise because of the genre of music he is a part of gets quickly written off
Crap comes in many forms like his Craig's attitude in person....maybe that's why. Learn to not be a prick and people play your shit
Jonny we are not worthy 🙌🏻

This HITS.
With that buildup it really is open your eyes and look north II jonny is flexing more than ever in slaves thats for sure. This is dbm1 vocals or even relativity🙌

Jonny is close to his emarosa and dgd days. We’re not quite there, but it’s damn close.
He has moved on. It's okay.
