      Dude 2017 I moved back after breaking up with my fiance. She fucking shattered my heart, and I already take medication for depression. I was ready to end my fucking life. Then, I found Guardin. 🖤

      The reason he hasnt blow up yet is because people need girls tweaking on crack. Or a good music video, with the story relating to the music lyrics. For example at the end of the (if he made a video) video when he said "Grab the 9, grab the trigger, this my suicide letter" it could have been him holding a gun to his grad but 1. Illegal 2. Plastic gun is also illegal 3.if it was real people would think you're actually insane 😜 but who cares about everything i just said no one's gonna read it 😒

    Lyrics:
    They keep telling me to love myself
    How the fuck do you love yourself
    When you don't even know
    Who the fuck you are anymore?
    Like you feel like you're reaching your breaking point
    Every fucking day and it's just
    It's hard, man
    They don't wanna talk
    They don't wanna feel
    The voices in my head saying
    I don't think I'm real
    They don't wanna talk
    They don't wanna feel
    The voices in my head saying
    I don't think I'm
    They don't wanna talk
    They don't wanna feel
    The voices in my head saying
    I don't think I'm real
    I don't think I'm real
    I don't think I'm real
    I don't think I'm real
    I don't think I'm
    I don't know where my heads been at
    And I've been feeling like a nuisance just because of that
    It's like a headache but the funny thing about it's that
    The pain won't go away till my brain go splat
    And I've been trying to decode myself, figure my shit out
    Get a better grip and spark the spliff that's in my mouth
    I can't cope without the dope and time's just runnin' out
    Losin' my patience, I'm vacant, a hollow body now
    I'm finding other ways to try to cope with all the pain
    And if I'm being honest with you, baby I am not okay
    The fucking voice inside my head is driving me insane
    And silence kills me, lately it just hasn't been the same
    Lost in my head, lost in my mind
    Telling myself that I'll be just fine
    Nothing's okay, nothing's alright
    Smoking all day, crying all night
    And what the fuck you expect from the kid
    I got demons in my orbit that I'm tryin' to rid
    Of all the shit that I deal with, I act on a whim
    I'm like a fish outta water trying to swim
    Bedroom dweller, I'm feelin' so fucking stellar
    When I empty my clip into the chest of the teller
    Killed the man inside of me that's been lane switchin' better
    Grab the 9, grip the trigger, this my suicide letter
    They don't wanna talk
    They don't wanna feel
    The voices in my head saying
    I don't think I'm real
    They don't wanna talk
    They don't wanna feel
    The voices in my head saying
    I don't think I'm
    They don't wanna talk
    They don't wanna feel
    The voices in my head saying
    I don't think I'm real
    I don't think I'm real
    I don't think I'm real
    I don't think I'm real
    I don't think I'm

      There’s at least one person, for everyone, who will miss them if they’re gone. The same goes for you, that alone is a reason for sticking around for as long as you can. I know from personal experience the words “things will get better” seem hollow when you’ve been down for so long. As hollow as they may seem at the time, they’re true. You have to keep rationally finding concrete and abstract reasons to stay, there’s a lot of them. Remind yourself whenever ur down. I hope you’re doing okay man ❤️
