Man I cried with the chorus, I am not in the best moment of my life so listening those words motivate, it is true we can change if we want it, i should be honest with my self too
Real is an understatement for this diary entry. You can touch this, picture this, smell this.. it triggers a lot for those who’ve been through this or are going through this. Just another reminder that we aren’t alone or the only ones feeling this pain, shedding these tears, fighting the fight being better than who we were yesterday. Thank you for this..
Hang in there I just cleaned up off H and Xanax, was on opiates for 21yrs and nerve pills for 18 and I managed so I know you can do it brother. Just delete all ur connects numbers and change yours and get away from that scene. In a couple weeks you’ll start feeling better and and in a month you’ll get feel normal and then you start feeling better than when you were constantly numb. I forgot how reality actually felt. Stay positive you can do it.
And of course if you can get into a rehab, I live in middle of nowhere in WV(and there’s still meth and heroin everywhere) so I had to turn my basement into my own personal rehab
I don’t know if anyone actually reads their UA-cam comments. I don’t know how to save people, I don’t know just the right words to say, I don’t know the amount of courage and pain it takes to right this song, then sing it with heart to mean it, then produce it for other people to hear. But I do know that I appreciate every syllable and verse. “Fly” isn’t my favorite song honestly it’s not even on my top 20. But after the 3rd time I replayed it, I realized that I wasn’t really listening. I felt like someone had slide show of my life’s memories, happy and painful moments streaming as this song played. Kinda gives me hope, even a broken fuck up like me can help someone else. - To Johnny To Highly Suspect Thank you for every track, every feature, and every album. - A Highly Suspect Fan
I think alot of people will change the "dear Johnny" to their own name. Great message and opening to a fantastic album. Love the change in direction plus the old skool gems are brilliant. Upper drugs being me highlight
@@lorenzolucaj2873 - It is only human to feel emotions, to cry, to grieve, to be depressed or you would be a psychopath. Our society today rewards psychopathic and narcissistic people. 1 in 100 people are psychopaths. So the next time you cry or see someone else cry sympathize instead of criticize by seeing them as week or crazy. Its the ones that do not cry that we need to be afraid of!!!
@@caramontgomery3984 Agreed.. Now that Mike commented and I got to reread your comment I think you're trying to insinuate that I'm somehow making fun of this man for having emotions? Is that what's happening here? 🙈
"Got a father that raised me when shit got tough But we don't really know how to talk about stuff" Yeah. Thats one hit home too hard. When he's working hard to give everything, you learn that too and pretty much all you can talk about amidst the awkward silences, is how work is... Its such a shit feeling....
@@oldmanwithboner7994 Nobody is villainizing fathers, but there is just a disconnect. like i love my dad but its so crushing when i cant talk to him...
Yeah man but for me it's different. After my mother gets separated from my dad he helped me with money. But this separation was too much fur him and since then he was never lucky with someone else and that since 15 years.. Now he is very frightened and doesn't talk about feelings etc
Lyrics: [Verse 1] Don't like the way that I look I don't like the way that I feel I'm acting like everything's cool but maybe it's time I start keeping it real I thought about killing myself I thought about ending it all I thought about standing on top of my building in Brooklyn and seeing how long it would take me to fall [Verse 2] I'm scared And I'm losing my patience I wanna feel weightless I hate this What's up? Eh, don't know why I'm so fucked up It sucks Eh, maybe I'm over-dramatic But I'm just keeping it real I'm not always okay I don't know how to deal I wish I had someone to give me some love I wish I had someone to give me a hug I'm sick of the liquor I'm sick of the drugs I wish I could just stop fucking up [Chorus] Dear Johnny be honest You can change if you wanted And let me tell you something else that's true There's nobody else that's just like you Dear Johnny be real It's okay to feel One day you're going to hear this song And laugh because you've stayed so strong [Verse 3] Got a brother I know that I don't call enough "Hey baby boy what's up I miss you so much" Got a father that raised me when shit got tough We don't really know how to talk about stuff Got a mother I ain't seen in eighteen years Just know that I forgive you there's been too many tears I hope I don't get any older With this chip up on my shoulder I think it's time I switched it all up [Chorus] Dear Johnny be honest You can change if you wanted And let me tell you something else that's true There's nobody else that's just like you Dear Johnny be real It's okay to feel One day you're going to hear this song And laugh because you've stayed so strong [Bridge] I'm falling away From everything that's ever brought me down I am the sound Now I'm falling away From everything that's ever brought me down I am the sound Now [Chorus] Dear Johnny be honest You can change if you wanted And let me tell you something else that's true There's no-one else that's just like you Dear Johnny be real It's okay to feel One day you're going to hear this song And laugh because you've stayed so strong [Outro] Hahahaha I feel better already!

Shout out to Pam the cat! Shout out to Jolene the dog! A word to eleven Yeah, love you This is a family This is MCID Hahahaha
"I hope I don't get any older With this chip up on my shoulder" I felt this so hard. I grew up without my real dad, had my mother and a step dad. Two horrible people who shouldn't have raised a child. That experience has shaped so many of my insecurities today, ruined relationships, and made me feel so alone. But one day you wake up and realize that you have to just move on, you can't keep letting it define you and that you have to find love in yourself. Being surrounded by people who having loving families is so hard, especially during this time of the year. But you must let go and trust that God, the Universe, and love has your back.
I'm sobbing it's so accurate taking my 17 yr old daughter to see them for our first concert together. We been through some shit together and idk how I'm gonna keep it together
12 years in the United States Marine Corps, and it’s been 7 since my honorable discharge.During these 19 years, I’ve attended 19. funerals in my dress blues. 10 of those from unfortunate suicides. All of them I knew personally. And I myself was almost one of those victims. You can always change if you want it. But your family will push you to get there. Whether they are your immediate family, your friends, or your brothers and sisters in arms. Thanks Johnny and family. You guys are terrific! Semper Fidelis
This is going to be the one I will replay over again and again because the lyrics hit so hard some of us can relate to this, this one brought me some tears stay strong Johnny.
emeka onwuka Really... Well I get it! And that's what I like about them tho... Art. Everyone can enjoy. Just saw them 10/26 @ Novo in CA. They were awesome❣
I've been trying to get clean recently. You're dropping these real full truths on me, Johnny I promise I'll be clean when I see you and I'll keep it. We're all here for you. MCID.
There is a point like, maybe 6 years ago, this would have been my favorite song. It was what I needed then. I got married to my best friend and we just had a beautiful baby 6 months ago. Put the work in guys, life is so worth it. Pulling for you.
This song is one of the hardest hitting ones I have heard in years. In recent years I have fallen heavy into self hate and addiction and have been thinking alot about how I have been a deadbeat brother and have quite a few times heavily cosidered ending it all and hearing this song just sent me into tears in a way no other song has before
I’m out here trying to deliver mail and this song brought me to tears. The part about his mom is too real to me....everything about this song hits me hard tbh
@@daniellevitoriaa840 they advertised last year coming to Voodoo Fest in New Orleans and all the way up until the time of the show is when they announced they weren't going to be here after I already walked in the gate after I already spent $170 per ticket X2. His head is literally swole. He thinks he's the greatest thing to ever walk the earth. Screw him what an asshole... I used to really like them and they were really good but that mcid album is total crap. If you could make that album into toilet paper I wouldn't even wipe my butt with it
When I first this song I had to hit replay so many times on pandora just to make sure I heard everything right. This song describes everything in my life right now. Except is only been 5 years since I seen my mom. I needed to hear this
I’ve never, and I mean NEVER had a song I connect with so much. From everything to not talking to your mother (I never actually knew her, the last time I saw her I was 4, she died when I was 12, I am now 28.) to not talking to my brother enough and the tendencies of hurting myself
God this song has gotten me thru alchohol rehab and sexual abuse and a broken family and relationships. This band is so amazing. Hits home more than nirvana did when it came out. I relate more to johnny than I did kurt.
This song literally explains my entire life especially the parts about the brother, mother and father, those three lines are like spot on I actually haven't seen my mother in 18 years my dad and I never really got along and my brother lives with the mom i haven't seen in 18 years so I barely ever get to see him. This song really hit home for me.
When I hear this song kinda makes me think about my life and kinda resembles it too, it does make me tear up when I sing it but I just love the way you made the song. I listen to it everyday
Dear Johnny you’re amazing ❤️❤️❤️ I cannot stop playing this song on repeat. Sad undertones with a happy hopeful ending. Everybody hits rock bottom at some point in their lives 🙏🥰
@@Msasha2727 I don't think they would've stayed together as a band if they disagreed on the direction they wanted to go in. There are still some decent rock songs on this album. Yeah it is different but if you like music other than rock you can learn to appreciate songs like Freakstreet or this one
BRANDON TRUPP that’s the whole reason I’m pissed. Sooooo many other bands out there doing this. No rock bands doing new good music.... they where the first rock albums I had purchased in years! Pop is a dime a dozen!
Man... Just saw them in Nashville last week, and... Jesus... This song spoke to me... even more live..... Johnny, the lyrics you say are so much felt irl, from so many people.... Thank you for the kick ass music you create. Please keep doing the damn thing.
Patchy Sideburn I don’t know. Viper Strike was an abortion of the music genre. It didn’t even fit with the album as a whole. It was just an odd, discordant, pointless song to say, “Look at us! We’re soooo tolerant! Please buy our album now!”
@@nthomas87 ok, Mr. America.... Whatever you say! I'll get right on deleting or destroying the record!!! Haha... So because YOU don't like the song; you Pretend that it is an "abortion" of the music genre? I would take a guess that you are not an actual fan of this band and more of a Hater but they obviously trigger with Truth so you feel motivated to click on their videos, comment and THEN push your sad Narratives all in an effort to change other people's minds? Yeah, Mr. America... You people really do suck! I'm struggling to find a redeemable quality within your Culture... Smh
This album definitely has more of a personal feel. They said this album was going to be different, and they didn't bluff. I personally like new direction, and am already waiting for the next album while I enjoy this one. Keep up the good work guys!
This is for all of us who are switching it up! 90 days Monday, when I come see you in HOB on feb1st will be 180,days I changed cause I want it! Its okay to feel, I won't let my son not ever be able to not talk about stuff, mom I miss you after 3 years I forgive you! Thanks for this for real! Little bro I love you! @wolfgangfilms #MCID
Hey boys. Seen ya in blooming normal il....with that Midwest AF hat! .......keep on Rocking in a free world ...here in Midwest you di t play this .....I'd give anything to hear it live.....do I have to come to Brooklyn? Rip POP Smoke
Im a dad that raised two kids through a rough divorce from a wife with mental illness . Its hard at times and i think of ending it all as well. Finding it hard to talk between father and son is something that we all go through. I was blessed to have two great dad's in my life my dad and stepdad. There was a time when i had a hard time talking to both of them . Looking back it breaks my heart to this day. And now im going through it with my son. Its songs like this that lets you know your not alone. My son showed me this band and now im a big fan. This song touches my soul. New big fan/father trying to hold it together .thanks
"Dear Johnny be honest you can change if you wanted" struck me hard and has motivated me to keep pushing. Then "it's okay to feel" reminded me that I am still human and shits hurts at times. This song has really been motivating me. I wish I could of seen them in concert but couldn't because of work. But again this song has been helping me through the ups and downs of the military. Hopefully they will go on concert soon again.
I always wonder what the point of disliking a video is. Take a look at that Justin Bieber guy. It started being the "trendy" thing to dislike his main video. And that's dumb as shit. He's just a modern day pop star, get over it if you don't like the guy. We've become a society of haters. I fucking hate it...fuck you, David Adams. Piece of shit hater.
I dont know how so many lyrics from his songs hit so close to heart. Powerful and chill like it's nothing to feel like bottom of the bottle. We are something and will be something but right now just feel
Johnny I swear your songs always feel like your reading lyrics from my head and life. You have definitely been helping me cope and deal with life lately and I'm so glad that you are doing what you do!
I've been listening 5 years now when you first started making music. I come back and listen often to this album. DON'T STOP MAKING MUSIC! ♡ WE BELIEVE IN YOU! 👑 💫🦋
This song along with "decorate" by Twenty One Pilots is me and my husband's 1st and 2nd songs of the morning, EVERY morning lol We love you Johnny. You are so talented and your voice is of angels. I hear your struggles. GOD BLESS YOU BROTHER. IT'S OK TO FEEL.
I was just introduced to this song and I haven’t stopped listening to it since. I’ll check out some other of your songs, but this one resonated deep in my soul. Love this
Thank God for music like this. Sometimes you cant express in your own words feelings or thoughts and a song like this comes along to get that expression out. Thank you
Man this song really hit me. Ive had a rough past and lost alot of people I love because of the choices ive made but now I'm on the road to regaining my life back and what he says in this song about needing to love urself is so true u cant love others unless u love urself
You know people talk about how different their new sound is from the old stuff but if you listen, the core is still there. It may be a different style but the mood is still the same. I still get the same kind of trance listening to their new stuff just like the old stuff
I admire people like this man. Able to express feelings through art. In this case, music. Hopefully he finds peace of mind if he's still searching for it.
Highly suspect is about to cultivate a whole new fan base with this album. This is the kind of album that will help bridge the gap between hard rock fans and the edm/rap crowd.
Im glad im finally listening to the new album fully. I really needed to hear this song right now. Can't wait for you guys to roll back through Phoenix again!
This song came at the right time!!! My wife took the kids and left last Friday and took my kids and I've felt so loss until I came across this album... shout out to highly suspect
Stumbled onto highly suspect one day and I'm so glad I got a chance to listen some really meaningful music so separate from what I hear normally on the radio.
Wise beyond your years, Johnny..and BRAVE. I wish you the very best. Thank you for filling the void I find myself wandering around in too often these days.♥️
This song came to me like a gift that I would never ask for but I needed it so much. I love Johnny, I feel better and weirdly hopeful. Was almost consumed by dark and negative thoughts, went places in my mind that you try to forget exists, I straight set up residence and didn't leave. Those places and moments are hard to give up, especially when you don't think you deserve any better. I'm back and I hope I don't go back. I feel so sad when I think about people living in theirs right now, believing it to be home, it's not and you don't belong there. I'm sending out lots of love to anyone who needs it. And thanks to Johnny for your gifts that you share with everyone. Love, I have so much if you're low I can spare some and an ear to listen if you get stuck in that place.
I've been listening to this song more and more lately. I love how unbelievably relatable HS can be at times. Thank you for letting the world know we're not alone, and that there's always hope.❤
RIP to my friend Jonny B! I cannot listen to this song without crying and thinking of you. I miss you so much! I hope whereever you are, you’re happy now ❤
I swear to god if I ever saw Johnny in person I would go and give him a big hug. Stay strong brother. Your music is healing for so many.
I could use it

Good name. I'm also a Sullivan. I've been clean for 2 years. You can do it if you want it. Good luck
Did the same...34 days today. Listen to this everyday while I was in rehab.
Hang in there I just cleaned up off H and Xanax, was on opiates for 21yrs and nerve pills for 18 and I managed so I know you can do it brother.

Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Don't like the way that I look
I don't like the way that I feel
I'm acting like everything's cool but maybe it's time I start keeping it real
I thought about killing myself
I thought about ending it all
I thought about standing on top of my building in Brooklyn and seeing how long it would take me to fall
[Verse 2]
I'm scared
And I'm losing my patience
I wanna feel weightless
I hate this
What's up?
Eh, don't know why I'm so fucked up
It sucks
Eh, maybe I'm over-dramatic
But I'm just keeping it real
I'm not always okay
I don't know how to deal
I wish I had someone to give me some love
I wish I had someone to give me a hug
I'm sick of the liquor I'm sick of the drugs
I wish I could just stop fucking up
[Chorus]
Dear Johnny be honest
You can change if you wanted
And let me tell you something else that's true
There's nobody else that's just like you
Dear Johnny be real
It's okay to feel
One day you're going to hear this song
And laugh because you've stayed so strong
[Verse 3]
Got a brother I know that I don't call enough
"Hey baby boy what's up I miss you so much"
Got a father that raised me when shit got tough
We don't really know how to talk about stuff
Got a mother I ain't seen in eighteen years
Just know that I forgive you there's been too many tears
I hope I don't get any older
With this chip up on my shoulder
I think it's time I switched it all up
[Chorus]
Dear Johnny be honest
You can change if you wanted
And let me tell you something else that's true
There's nobody else that's just like you
Dear Johnny be real
It's okay to feel
One day you're going to hear this song
And laugh because you've stayed so strong
[Bridge]
I'm falling away
From everything that's ever brought me down
I am the sound
Now
I'm falling away
From everything that's ever brought me down
I am the sound
Now
[Chorus]
Dear Johnny be honest
You can change if you wanted
And let me tell you something else that's true
There's no-one else that's just like you
Dear Johnny be real
It's okay to feel
One day you're going to hear this song
And laugh because you've stayed so strong

Currently on repetition #5 for this listening loop...

Sames.
Omg yes! I say the same shit daily swear!

Good lawd. His voice. That beat. The lyrics.
Pure bliss.
Doesn't sound like singing, more like talking in poem

Once damaged, change is the only constant. Love you mawfks!
Every word in this song is true, there's no one else that's just like you, stay strong.
This song is one of the hardest hitting ones I have heard in years. In recent years I have fallen heavy into self hate and addiction and have been thinking alot about how I have been a deadbeat brother and have quite a few times heavily cosidered ending it all and hearing this song just sent me into tears in a way no other song has before
The release of this song, the lyrics within it, the melody - its all perfectly timed and beautifully executed.

I’m out here trying to deliver mail and this song brought me to tears. The part about his mom is too real to me....everything about this song hits me hard tbh
Never thought that highly suspect would do songs like this but I’m not complaining
DONT LEAVE US JOHNNY. WE NEED YOU
@@stephandavis9872 wtf is wrong with you??!
@@daniellevitoriaa840 they advertised last year coming to Voodoo Fest in New Orleans and all the way up until the time of the show is when they announced they weren't going to be here after I already walked in the gate after I already spent $170 per ticket X2. His head is literally swole. He thinks he's the greatest thing to ever walk the earth. Screw him what an asshole... I used to really like them and they were really good but that mcid album is total crap. If you could make that album into toilet paper I wouldn't even wipe my butt with it
This is one of the better songs off the album, alot less pop(y) and has more heart to it.
I really dig Highly Suspect's new stuff, but I was wondering if they will ever go back to a more rock based album? Love from London
No one knows. Not even the band. Just enjoy it. Or don’t. Go see them live. They still rock out, trust me
Brandon Ruppert will do just that brother
This song is relatable as fuck. Every single word.
When I first this song I had to hit replay so many times on pandora just to make sure I heard everything right. This song describes everything in my life right now. Except is only been 5 years since I seen my mom. I needed to hear this
I am a fan of anyone who does a shout out to Pam the cat.
Joline the dog too shoot....
@@tylerwiening3140 When I saw them live, I saw Ryan carrying Joline out of the tour bus haha
I decided to name a kitten I found Pam, sadly she passed away a few weeks after, but it was good while it lasted
I’ve never, and I mean NEVER had a song I connect with so much. From everything to not talking to your mother (I never actually knew her, the last time I saw her I was 4, she died when I was 12, I am now 28.) to not talking to my brother enough and the tendencies of hurting myself
Dear Johnny WE ❤ YOU 😊 mcid family
I pray 20 yrs from here I can LOL that I stayed strong enough.
Probably less, maybe just a couple years..but yeah you can't see it right now like I can't. But it will get better eventually..idk when
@@Kylemathews1 I tell myself that shit too, and have been, for like 21 yrs now.
God this song has gotten me thru alchohol rehab and sexual abuse and a broken family and relationships. This band is so amazing. Hits home more than nirvana did when it came out. I relate more to johnny than I did kurt.
This song literally explains my entire life especially the parts about the brother, mother and father, those three lines are like spot on
I actually haven't seen my mother in 18 years my dad and I never really got along and my brother lives with the mom i haven't seen in 18 years so I barely ever get to see him. This song really hit home for me.
When I hear this song kinda makes me think about my life and kinda resembles it too, it does make me tear up when I sing it but I just love the way you made the song. I listen to it everyday
Dear Johnny you’re amazing ❤️❤️❤️
I cannot stop playing this song on repeat. Sad undertones with a happy hopeful ending. Everybody hits rock bottom at some point in their lives 🙏🥰
Thank you for this. I’m afraid to feel. I don’t know how anymore.
You'll come across someone someday when you least expect it...
What a different song . A masterpiece. Highly suspect can play with the best of them.
This is how you try something new without selling out.
Hawk Fight Talk incorrect, throwing a guitar solo in there would have been not selling out.
@@Msasha2727 throwing in a guitar solo just to appease butthurt ex-fans would be hella selling out
@@Msasha2727 I agree with both sides here
@@Msasha2727 I don't think they would've stayed together as a band if they disagreed on the direction they wanted to go in. There are still some decent rock songs on this album. Yeah it is different but if you like music other than rock you can learn to appreciate songs like Freakstreet or this one
BRANDON TRUPP that’s the whole reason I’m pissed. Sooooo many other bands out there doing this. No rock bands doing new good music.... they where the first rock albums I had purchased in years! Pop is a dime a dozen!
Man... Just saw them in Nashville last week, and... Jesus... This song spoke to me... even more live..... Johnny, the lyrics you say are so much felt irl, from so many people.... Thank you for the kick ass music you create. Please keep doing the damn thing.
Okay so that chorus has me shook
Amazing! So much unique talent. You guys have literally revived rock and roll. Can't wait for the next album.
This band cannot make bad music
Patchy Sideburn I don’t know. Viper Strike was an abortion of the music genre. It didn’t even fit with the album as a whole. It was just an odd, discordant, pointless song to say, “Look at us! We’re soooo tolerant! Please buy our album now!”
@@nthomas87 ok, Mr. America.... Whatever you say! I'll get right on deleting or destroying the record!!! Haha...
So because YOU don't like the song; you Pretend that it is an "abortion" of the music genre?
I would take a guess that you are not an actual fan of this band and more of a Hater but they obviously trigger with Truth so you feel motivated to click on their videos, comment and THEN push your sad Narratives all in an effort to change other people's minds?
Yeah, Mr. America... You people really do suck! I'm struggling to find a redeemable quality within your Culture... Smh
i feel all the emotion. damn its like every song is connected to my life
Bet this is dude disliking ha jk
This album definitely has more of a personal feel. They said this album was going to be different, and they didn't bluff. I personally like new direction, and am already waiting for the next album while I enjoy this one. Keep up the good work guys!
First time I heard this song I cried
Years later.. I smile bc I hung in there.
.. life gets better!! Thank you Johnny for always keeping it real!
This is for all of us who are switching it up! 90 days Monday, when I come see you in HOB on feb1st will be 180,days I changed cause I want it! Its okay to feel, I won't let my son not ever be able to not talk about stuff, mom I miss you after 3 years I forgive you! Thanks for this for real! Little bro I love you! @wolfgangfilms #MCID
Awww, Johnny. We LOVE you ❤️ thank you for helping all of us going through similar heavy shit.
Hey boys. Seen ya in blooming normal il....with that Midwest AF hat! .......keep on Rocking in a free world ...here in Midwest you di t play this .....I'd give anything to hear it live.....do I have to come to Brooklyn? Rip POP Smoke
You were right 😄 I'm here happy laughin. Thanks for holding my hand through this 💜
Im a dad that raised two kids through a rough divorce from a wife with mental illness .
Its hard at times and i think of ending it all as well.
Finding it hard to talk between father and son is something that we all go through.
I was blessed to have two great dad's in my life my dad and stepdad.
There was a time when i had a hard time talking to both of them .
Looking back it breaks my heart to this day.
And now im going through it with my son.
Its songs like this that lets you know your not alone.
My son showed me this band and now im a big fan.
This song touches my soul.
New big fan/father trying to hold it together .thanks
Thank you so much Highly Suspect!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a treat posting a few tonight!!!!!!
"Dear Johnny be honest you can change if you wanted" struck me hard and has motivated me to keep pushing. Then "it's okay to feel" reminded me that I am still human and shits hurts at times. This song has really been motivating me. I wish I could of seen them in concert but couldn't because of work. But again this song has been helping me through the ups and downs of the military. Hopefully they will go on concert soon again.
There's literally just one guy at 1am disliking every song he's posted today LMFAO
He was waiting the whole day for this 😂
Byebye tower
^ found the crazy guy
I wasn't waiting for this, but since I got the notification, I listened and didn't like it.
I always wonder what the point of disliking a video is. Take a look at that Justin Bieber guy. It started being the "trendy" thing to dislike his main video. And that's dumb as shit. He's just a modern day pop star, get over it if you don't like the guy. We've become a society of haters. I fucking hate it...fuck you, David Adams. Piece of shit hater.
This song has made fill the happiest I've felt in a long time
You know despite not being the rock that I love this is actually a really nice song to chill and listen to
I dont know how so many lyrics from his songs hit so close to heart. Powerful and chill like it's nothing to feel like bottom of the bottle. We are something and will be something but right now just feel
Holy shit, this song is too real.
Damn this hit hard today. Haven't listened in at least a year, felt like I needed to hear it again.
Damn that synthwave beat really sets this shit off
Got tix for my 40th in Houston, cant fvcking wait, saw QOTSA on my 33rd so this should be pretty epic!
Johnny I swear your songs always feel like your reading lyrics from my head and life. You have definitely been helping me cope and deal with life lately and I'm so glad that you are doing what you do!
Thank you Highly Suspect..❤
I've been listening 5 years now when you first started making music. I come back and listen often to this album.
DON'T STOP MAKING MUSIC! ♡
WE BELIEVE IN YOU! 👑 💫🦋
This song along with "decorate" by Twenty One Pilots is me and my husband's 1st and 2nd songs of the morning, EVERY morning lol We love you Johnny. You are so talented and your voice is of angels. I hear your struggles. GOD BLESS YOU BROTHER. IT'S OK TO FEEL.
Me: This song isn't my usual type...
Johnny: My hypnotic voice will change your mind.
Me: Yup.
Same exact feeling!
Me..... WRONG
Literally like all of the highly suspect song for me tbh they sound off on the first listen but I listen again and then I can’t stop listening
I'm so hype to see them live on November 19th in Charlotte, NC. Itll be badass.🤘
The Incredible HOB MYRTLE FEB 1 2020, THE VISION IS CLEAR IT WILL BE A GREAT 180 DAY SOBER GIFT!
Saw them in peoria il 2 days ago it was a fuckin movie
#MCID
Thank you for this.... so much
Every part was already hitting and then the part about him and his parents was spot on for me. This is why this band will always be my favourite.
I was just introduced to this song and I haven’t stopped listening to it since. I’ll check out some other of your songs, but this one resonated deep in my soul. Love this
Thank God for music like this. Sometimes you cant express in your own words feelings or thoughts and a song like this comes along to get that expression out. Thank you
Yo man, thank you for making such sounds for us to hear man! It always gets me through the tough times!
Man this song really hit me. Ive had a rough past and lost alot of people I love because of the choices ive made but now I'm on the road to regaining my life back and what he says in this song about needing to love urself is so true u cant love others unless u love urself
I feel better already.
You know people talk about how different their new sound is from the old stuff but if you listen, the core is still there. It may be a different style but the mood is still the same. I still get the same kind of trance listening to their new stuff just like the old stuff
I admire people like this man. Able to express feelings through art. In this case, music. Hopefully he finds peace of mind if he's still searching for it.
I know this song has impacted others like it did to me. Thank you for writing this, really needed this today❤
Strong words. Good pill to swallow.
Highly suspect is about to cultivate a whole new fan base with this album. This is the kind of album that will help bridge the gap between hard rock fans and the edm/rap crowd.
Damn dude, bring out all the feeling at once! I haven't had this happen in a long time. Thank you for giving me the strength to go on.
This album is everything. No one tops Highly Suspect.
I love the vibes of this song, I feel the same in so many ways.
Im glad im finally listening to the new album fully. I really needed to hear this song right now. Can't wait for you guys to roll back through Phoenix again!
This song came at the right time!!! My wife took the kids and left last Friday and took my kids and I've felt so loss until I came across this album... shout out to highly suspect
Fave song off the new album
Stumbled onto highly suspect one day and I'm so glad I got a chance to listen some really meaningful music so separate from what I hear normally on the radio.
Wise beyond your years, Johnny..and BRAVE.
I wish you the very best.
Thank you for filling the void I find myself wandering around in too often these days.♥️
This song came to me like a gift that I would never ask for but I needed it so much. I love Johnny, I feel better and weirdly hopeful. Was almost consumed by dark and negative thoughts, went places in my mind that you try to forget exists, I straight set up residence and didn't leave. Those places and moments are hard to give up, especially when you don't think you deserve any better. I'm back and I hope I don't go back. I feel so sad when I think about people living in theirs right now, believing it to be home, it's not and you don't belong there. I'm sending out lots of love to anyone who needs it. And thanks to Johnny for your gifts that you share with everyone. Love, I have so much if you're low I can spare some and an ear to listen if you get stuck in that place.
I've been listening to this song more and more lately. I love how unbelievably relatable HS can be at times. Thank you for letting the world know we're not alone, and that there's always hope.❤
Out of all of the newest released today ... the one that is at the caliber of the first few that were released. Great sound, chorus and lyrics.
RIP to my friend Jonny B! I cannot listen to this song without crying and thinking of you. I miss you so much! I hope whereever you are, you’re happy now ❤
