    I know this will just be a random comment on this video, but I just wanted to put it out there. This era of mike Posner saved me, as cheesy as that sounds.. I was addicted to drugs living in shelters and peoples houses who I would pay in drugs , I was listening to mike on shuffle one night , and this song came on then live before I die , and I burst into an uncontrollable panic that I was wasting my life , for the next 4 years I have hustled my way up to running a business and helping others with recovery. Last month marked my 3.5 half years sober , and I still attribute all my positive changes to these songs.

      When i was in 10th standard i use to listen to this song on TV.
      I remember those day.
      I forgot the name of this song as i shift to another city and don't have TV or anything for 3 years.
      Now i have smartphone..
      After 4 year UA-cam recommended this song . ♥️

    It makes a difference when you truly have love and support in your life.
    I will never knkw what that is like but I hope those who have that kind of connection, appreciate and cherish it.

      This song and “I took a pill in Ibiza “ made me cry like a hormonal pregnant woman for nearly three hours, the first day I discovered those 2 songs. I listened to them over and over and over... Until my husband came home from work and I put on a happy face again. Lol. Those 2 songs and his song “Move On” are my top 3 favorite of his so far, and probably will be top 3 all time favorites of his. He’s sooooo amazing it’s crazy.

    Virginia Woolf and poetry
    No one seemed to notice me
    Being young was getting so old
    Cheap beer and cigarettes
    Life was like a movie set
    And I seemed to be given no role
    But in times of trouble
    I can turn to my mother
    And I know that she gon' understand
    So at age 18
    I cried to my mother
    And she told me, "young man"
    "There are moments when you fall to the ground
    But you are stronger than you feel you are now
    You don't always have to speak so loud, no
    Just be as you are
    Life is not always a comfortable ride
    Everybody's got scars that they hide
    And everybody plays the fool sometimes, yeah
    Just be as you are"
    They played me on the radio
    And everything was changing, so
    I thought I was all the way grown
    But I can still remember in that cold November
    When I realized I'm all alone
    But in times of trouble
    I can turn to my mother
    And I know that she gon' understand
    So at age 22
    I cried to my mother
    And she told me, "young man"
    "There are moments when you fall to the ground
    But you are stronger than you feel you are now
    You don't always have to speak so loud, no
    Just be as you are
    It doesn't matter if you become some star
    Life is better when you open your heart
    You don't always have to act so hard, no
    Just be as you are (Just be as you are)"
    Be as you are (Whoa)
    Be as, be as you are (Be as you are)
    Be as you are
    (Be as you are) Be as, be as you are
    If I'm speaking truthfully
    I'm not who I used to be
    And I know some people might laugh
    'Cause my music doesn't sound the same
    And my head's no longer shaved
    I'm worried if I'm on the right path
    But in times of trouble
    I can turn to my mother
    And I know that she gon' understand
    So at age 26
    I spoke to my mother
    And she told me, "young man"
    "There are moments when you fall to the ground
    But you are stronger than you feel you are now
    You don't always have to speak so loud, no
    Just be as you are
    It doesn't matter if you become some star
    Life is better when you open your heart
    You don't always have to act so hard, no
    Just be as you are (Be as you are)"
    Be as you are (Be as you are)
    Be as, be as you are (Be as you are)
    Be as you are (Be as you are)
    Be as, be as you are
    Be as you are

    This beautiful music video of Mike Posner really carries a huge message for folks all around the world. Many young people nowadays suffer from mental health issues such as depression, comparing themselves to others, low self-esteem, needless desire to be seen and noted. And all of these problems come from social networks as they want us to be perfect, post only our good photos and always compare our life with others. So, we lose our true selves and become vulnerable. As Mike says us, let's be who we really are. Let's quit Instagram, Facebook or whatever you use to spend your precious time on trying to be someone else. Instead, let's find ourselves, live a full life and be happy! For the past 2 years, I quitted Facebook and VK, and about a month I don't use Instagram. And you know what? I am really grateful for myself to this decision and more than ever satisfied with myself. I can now focus not on someone's life but my own and things that matter to me. I spend my free time on sports and to my family which I wouldn't probably do when I'm just surfing the internet. So, guys, I really hope we can avoid the stress that we face every day by the social network and be ourselves. Happy to share my experience and idea with you, and thanks for Mike for such a great message!

    Amen brother Mike. Everybody goes threw stuff and everybody makes mistakes. Everybody will hit rock bottom some point in your life. Some peoples rock bottom is deeper then others but it's what you learn threw it that matters the most! Its not always about being better or louder then someone else, sometimes it better to just keep to yourself and keep focused
    on yourself! Love you Mike!

    I love this. So inspiring- My school is the BEST thing that's ever happened to me. Even then, some catty, horrible jerk always has to remind me that there's something wrong with who I am- Be it hairy arms, a big nose, klutziness, ect, there's ALWAYS someway they find to hurt me. But then there's this song, reminding me I shouldn't care. That there's as much good in me as there are my mistakes, and that I'm fine how I am. Thank you, Mike posner!

    Virgina Woolf and poetry
    No one seemed to notice me
    Being young was getting so old
    Cheap beer and Cigarettes
    Life was like a movie set
    And I seemed to be given no role
    But in times of trouble
    I can turn to my mother
    And I know that she gon' understand
    So at age 18
    I cried to my mother
    And she told me, "young man"
    There are moments when you fall to the ground
    But you are stronger than you feel you are now
    You don't always have to speak so loud, no
    Just be as you are
    Life is not always a comfortable ride
    Everybody's got scars that they hide
    And everybody plays the fool sometimes, yeah
    Just be as you are"
    They played me on the radio
    And everything was changing, so
    I thought I was all the way grown
    But I can still remember in that cold November
    When I realized I'm all alone
    But in times of trouble
    I can turn to my mother
    And I know that she gon' understand
    So at age 22
    I cried to my mother
    And she told me, "young man"

      There are moments when you fall to the ground
      But you are stronger than you feel you are now
      You don't always have to speak so loud, no
      Just be as you are
      It doesn't matter if you become some star
      Life is better when you open your heart
      You don't always have to act so hard, no
      Just be as you are"
      If I'm speaking truthfully
      I'm not who I used to be
      And I know some people might laugh
      Cause my music doesn't sound the same
      And my head's no longer shaved
      I'm worried if I'm on the right path
      But in times of trouble
      I can turn to my mother
      And I know that she gon' understand
      So at age 26
      I spoke to my mother
      And she told me, "young man"
      "There are moments when you fall to the ground
      But you are stronger than you feel you are now
      You don't always have to speak so loud, no

    How?? Seriously how?? This song came out in 2015 and only one million views? The best decision I ever made was slowing down, building up my self worth and truly understanding happiness/appreciation for everything in life. I’m not successful yet, but even in failure Im happier than most around me. Its a really sad time to see so many people who are prisoners of todays society, not understanding whats causing them to feel worthless. Pushing your mind to think more positive every day, putting yourself in other peoples shoes when all you can think about are your own issues, and going to sleep truly thankful for everything you were blessed with that day will change your life. Its like going to the gym for your brain/soul. But people only care about instant or visual results in todays world (money, cars, muscles, followers). All thats good, but without the right mindset, its worthless.
