      Bunch of y'all acting like the original singer/songwriter ain't shit..... Give respect where it's due. The original composer of this song. Funny how all these already famous artists hop on and do a remix to make $ off of this average American putting a HUGE target on his back for bringing up the pedophiles that run the world. This man don't have the financial resources for protection/security y'all do... Y'all already famous, money hungry mfs, better give every cent you make, off this man's bravery/balls of steel, to him....

      Many men have there OWN story waiting to be told.. We focus on protecting our families and providing for them so much we sometimes loose ourselves along the way and find a vice rather then reach out or work on ourselves
      Before you even blink your kids grow up and your left feeling you failed and now in an endless trap and feel you’ll never succeed or get anywhere where you planned on being.. and you just become another story of endless fathers,Men who love there families and there country but go unnoticed and feeling restless useless and forgotten
      This 1 is for us and
      (The Great Part) of the 🇺🇸

But hey, you're all that matters right? You must build your houses out of mirrors because all you fucking see is yourselves.

      As a Canadian also, it hits home and feels like being stabbed in the heart. We are so bullied by the government that our people are divided and ready for a serious fight. Like old style war. I am tired. Tired of everything. Worked always paying into a government (non-optional) program that is not based on how much you put in is how much you get in the end. It also offers a disability pension if you get sick, injured. It caps out around $1280/month. If you also get a widow pension or any other kind it’s deducted dollar for dollar so you may end up with $0 after paying $2500/year every year you worked. That hurts deep. I’m just tired of it all. Seeing this video made me realize I am not alone.

    Man you hit it good with the fentanyl.. I get goosebumps each time that verse is coming up, in three more days me and my older brother will have 19 months in recovery from pain killers and what almost took us away from our kids and family was fentanyl. I just wish these kids and adults would realize that even though drugs might make you feel like you're not living your life and you feel like all the pain and bull shit is gone, it's not. It took me too long before realizing this, but we need to speak out.. merkules your music is just great bro

      Keep your head up, my guy! You got this! It's evil and destroys more lives than just your own. One step at a time. It takes a strong person to give up an addiction and stick to it. You and your bro have my support ❤💪🫶

    Merk's music is undeniably some of the greatest hands down I've been watching from start up and he never fails he's an amazing artist.

    I've been listening to you for years brother and when I saw this all I could think to myself was it's only going to be fire and we need an artist like you to step in the ring and spread the word. You have made my day brother and in this song you speak nothing but the truth and if people don't like the truth oh well it's the truth! 🔥
