From the time that this song came out all the way to Now in 2024, I have listened to this song through the ups and downs of life. Through the worst of the storms and the brightest of the sun, this song really speaks a true message about life and all of its beauty. Struggle is beauty, there is beauty in the struggle and that is exactly what this song is talking about through times of sheer hardship. Blood sweat, tears and more pain than I can ever imagine, this song helped me get through all of that, Ryan Upchurch is one of the most meaningful music artist of all time and he makes classic masterpieces day in and day out. I wish Ryan Upchurch could see how much of an impact his music has on the community around him long live the south.
The records grow from Hank Williams Jr, to Upchurch. Country music just grows, that's his roots and the seed of his ideas? Fertilized with ambition(rose petals). Watering can may be symbolic, tears? Like blood sweat and tears? I'm not sure if 3:00 has a meaning, I'm thinking it definitely does. Planting the pocket watch, idk, upchurch himself growing with time? He's already said the lamp lights are all the ideas he's coming up with, the car is him comfortable with the road he's on. This all said, one thing that's very eerie, the shot with him looking out the side mirror, looks exactly like Elvis when he was very young, before his mother died. Very eerie, very cool. Awesome job
The records are Eminem's album Relapse, Johnny Cash's At San Quentin, and Hank Jr's Five-O. I'm assuming that the records he is burying are the seeds to his music which he pulls up because Eminem, Cash and Hank are an extreme influence on his career. The pocket watch he buries after digging up the records are him wanting to "Go back in time sometimes and sit in silence doin nothin." I guess he's saying if he could go back and time and live for the moment as well as do it all again, he would.
I commented right before bed after a long day, I DID see the Cash but didn't recognize the Eminem, thanks for clearing it up! Upchurch explained everything on his Facebook, if anyone cares to take a peek at that. I dearly hope I'm not reading too much into anything or offending him. However I'm still curious about the significance of 3:00?
LEAVING THIS COMMENT ON THIS MASTERPIECE OF A SONG SO THAT EVERYTIME ONE OF YALL LIKES IT, I WILL BE NOTIFIED AND REMINDED TO COME BACK AND LISTEN TO IT ONE MORE TIME
Lost my brother lastnight to suicide he was one of your biggest fans..actually introduced me to you..yz and hill Billy were our favorites to get drunk to and go tear up some cornfields he was one of a kind a true hill Billy you'll forever be missed little brother hope your still jamming this in heaven 💔
Not to be racist man, But Im am a African American Male and I listen to your music! It is great, I love it!! I grew up in the country I understand these words!!! Keep it up Ryan man!!
He's a cool cat man glad you listening to this and not some bullshit in your teens, big difference from the real and the fake, you ever check out NF.... not a country rapper but reminds of church in the fact they both did things there own way and never changed or went Hollywood just wanna make good music and inspire people.... best of luck youngin ✌️
Look man i support the rebel flag but I hate everyone that use the n word and I hate up church because he using the n word wrong and I hate how he shows off the rebel flag like he owns it
I'm alot older than this kid but he gets it... This is out future kids...not this diddy boo, bubble gum social media crap music.....Ryan gets what his elders and old school growing up is about....
One of my best friends died today an one of my best memories with him was sitting on the bank fishing an smoking a blunt listing to this song so rip to my buddy this song is yours
My mother had this Mercury Cougar and I remember going out in winter time with her and drifting it a little on back roads. She had that car for most of my life. At a young age I named it white lightning and listening to this song took me back to that car after hearing white lightning. Thank you brother this song is just outstanding!! Just like all of your other songs they’re fantastic and your a fantastic artist man!!!
This is the comment I needed to see because I'm still mourning the death of my white 2005 suburban I named White Lightning after this song because of all the hard work I went thru to own a cool piece of not just automotive history but also my childhood given that my dad still drives the one we grew up in. And in my truck I've fallen in love with my future wife, and made so many memories with some really great friends. And of course when it came to working hard like myself, there wasn't much that White Lightning couldn't do, and somehow that gave me the same confidence about myself that I've lacked all my life. So yeah it really really hurt to have to total it. He will be missed, but there are others out there to live out his legacy so I guess I'm still Chasing White Lightning ⚡
This is my favorite song of yours! I listen to it everyday I'm fighting stage 4 breast cancer this is what I play as they fill my chest with chemo Thank you
@@hunterolinger1059 Thank you I appreciate that Hunter. My last name is Hunter my profile pic is me taking my daughter bow hunting I aim to be able to do that again
This is so beautiful brought tears . This is why our souls connect with you! So glad to find you and your music, shoot you could of been one of the kids I babysit lol you make me feel like home! Blessings to you and yours!
Church. I cannot relay how you have healed my soul. And you have. You are a once in 19 lifetime artist and I'm so very grateful you pioneered in our generation. I love you. Always. Thank you HB
I swear man, every song you write, every remix you do, every verse you sing, turns into a masterpeice. Soon you and everyone in the Country Rap genre will get the recognition you all deserve. Its time for outlaws to take back country music. #RHEC
Upchurch 1 of the most talented entertainers ...He raps ' He Sangs' Hes a fkn Comedian and he exposes corruption in the music industry and hes stayed real as hes spose to be all the way thru ...Salute to the Church
Its been a while but i really think ryan needs to stop and really listen to this song again and remind himself of how far he has made it on his own. Much love fam❤ we... well I need more upchurch vibes like this.
I listen to this song every morning while getting ready for work, I love it because it reminds me of my dreams and aspirations soon to come true. My all time favorite and I wish you’d make more songs like this.
hey what's up Ryan? I want u to know that this song specifically has helped me remember who I am. I'm a veteran that has had a lot of trouble reajusting to country Life and finding my roots, this song has led me home.thanks brother. keep doing what u do.
I just lost one of my little buddy's today.. it struck a cord in my heart but all I keep coming back to is Upchurch... Holler boys we are, chasing white lightning on wolf creek road? RIP Josh..
Ryan Upchurch you are a big inspiration to me, whenever I'm done I watch your videos on UA-cam, Facebook, or instagram. The song you did with Taylor ray Holbrook means a lot to me and my family, that was the very last song my brother listened to. Keep doing what your doing.
This song..... what can one say? You are a talented young man and I see a great future for you. You are very versatile and you will break country music in the next few years. GOD BLESS AMERICA!
Upchurch declares that his passion for music will never fade even after death as he plans to drown himself in the lyrics he speaks. This one hits so hard because music is his life unlike all the other artists thats in it just for the money so to speak love ya church thank you for such great music
ryan will probably never see this but im gunna put it out there...back in the early 2000's me and my 2 partners had a rap group..all underground and self made ..we travelled all throughout the midwest from state to state doing shows. built a fan base and even ended up on the cover of "go magazine" and rockford register star newspaper headlines. i was so hungry for the music. i did the recording , the mixing, the mastering ...i was all in..then life hit hard in the recession..i dropped off to take care of my kids because the music life can really take a toll on your home life ...its almost a decade later...been 8 years since i wrote or even thought about doing music...after finding upchurch i realized that tho the lane i was in at the time was still true to me... i, like him appriciate so many genres of music. and it has given me a new outlook on myself and my music and what it could be. i wont seek the stardom or any kind of local fame again , but his music has given me the push to get back in the lab and just do me....for me, because i love to make music.....wether i make a country track , a hip hop track, a rock tune...doesnt matter...he has paved the way and opened up my mind to just get back into it because music is a major part of me. and to just do whatever i feel like doing. so just here to say thank you to ryan upchurch for being real, being true , and showing people like me you dont have to create your lane in one form. you can just do you no matter the genre and be happy that your blessed enough to do it. thanks brother.
@@michaelkelly4250 why the hate he likes Upchurch and was inspired by him and you just come out with a f you...dam that's cold...wasn't like he was bashing Upchurch he was praising him...what a negative douche pickle!
Damn listened to 5 new songs by church recommended to me. Every one was better than the last this one my new fav. Keep being original brother long live the south
Ryan, I'm not sure how you come up with the ideas for the songs you write, but your mind is incredible and I love it! You always bring some new angle...ever changing...is the things and places you go the inspection? Are your dreams like visions and you set them all to music, or do you know the beat as you write the lyrics?? Idk...but I'm amazed everytime I hear YOUUUUUU!!!
I wish I could meet you, your song has helped me get through my oldest son having cancer.....and he bought the White Lightning sticker for his truck....I hope this reaches you Ryan....because you have truly inspired me and my son,much love ❤️
he put his soul into all of his songs but…. This song just renders complete perfection the songs plus the music video I love the intro like his tribute to all of the legends.
I am going threw the worse shit in my life and this song is on repeat for the remainder of my life brother you make me think I have someone in life just the words make me have faith
Never in a million years would I say a country/rap song was good. Just to be real about it. Country does not resignate with me at all. This though...damn...you got me. I am shocked at how good you are.
remember blue grass folk and country gospel were all seperate at one time. However there are those like Upchurch that bring you al of them all of the time.
Cali chick here born and raised in the city. I’ve been listening to rap, hip/hop, R&B all my life and you have a new fan. You sir have mad skills and I hope to see you grow in the future. I respect that you are true to yourself and that comes through in your music for sure. I wish you all the best in your many careers and life.
Being from Camden and growing up on kentucky lake will give u appreciation for this guy, he's hella cool representing our culture an what truly defines ppl who understand the south and our mud holes and love for the land an culture we were born and bred into . Thanks church!! Hope your holidays and everyone reading this has a good one ☺️☺️
Some people go for gold, then lose sight of their shine And the sparkle that once was, gets tarnished in mind They forget what they was after they fell off the track And their vision that was vivid gets lost in pitch black Age starts to take place like a bomb that keeps tickin' And they regret not chasing after it after they had the ambition The ambition fades away like the red on a rose And the regret sucks the life from everybody I suppose But my rose ain't red, it won't die but ain't fake But when I die, I'll drown myself in these lyrics I speak White. Lightnin'. Real Church. -Thank you for Sharing.
With everything going on in my life. Church is one that’s makes me get out of my head and forget all bills I’m behind on and my boyfriend being in jail. It’s a stress reliever for me. Thank you Upchurch for be there through music.
Idgaf what people think about this song and UpChurch this is thew best song of ever! It has a great message and It can be played every day the song is so unique and that's what makes it so good.
I cry every time I hear his words... as a writer I am so impressed with his lyrics... true life is hard and hearing the struggles of others lets you know you are not alone
A friend suggested I listen to this, knowing that I am not a fan of country, hip hop, or rap. I thought they were just trying to get a laugh out of me but this. This song is amazing!!
Dear upchurch, I'm 15 and lost my papa a couple years ago and after that i discovered your music and just discovered this song and i hadn't even seen the meaning of the song before but i felt this song bro, it feels like you wrote this song for me bro i want you to know how awesome you Are and how awesome your music is. I love you skin 🔥💯💯💯
This song always gives me 5 mins of peace when I hear it. It helps when I'm feeling down, so I just put it on repeat and try to forget about everything.
Tammy Cioppa I'm an old school country boy that just moved to a city 4 days ago and it's so different here I miss the good old country roads and that country courtesy most of all.
im from Millbrook and its somewhat the same just not as quiet but i was raised in Pine Level where there's no houses for a mile or two apart. But its good to see another skin reppin it from the big Bama
Had a buddy o mine stop by my house, and he was listening to this in his truck so I ask who it was. He tells me, we do whhat we do and I came back in and looked it up. I can honestly say that I damn near lost it at how AMAZING his voice is, and it came out of nowhere. Very nice.
anyone talkin crap about this song can get a boot up their ass by me and every fan of upchurch. we got ur back upchurch keep chasin ur dreams and always remember even if u dont count us as family we got ur back your an inspiration
Upchruch,overtime,Charlie Farley,Struggle Jellyroll all have a great knowledge of different up bringing I like them all and would love to have a big bon fire some suds lots of laughter get. It now rolling out.
I’ve been listening to Church since I was 7 I heard you’re music in my dads truck and fell in love with your lyrics and I’m now 13 still bumping your songs and I wold love to meet you upchurch
I want to grow up to be like you upchurch, your the one I look up and see my role model... your music is the best and your music videos are the best, I want to have a career like yours. Your music touches my soul and gets me lost in a world of an empty mind... your the most badass hick hop singers I listen to, your lifestyle is teaching me to get through the hard things in life and get all the bullies out of the way and don’t let anyone crush your dreams.
man another great hit by upchurch.. killed it again with yet another great song.. i aint suprised he's on a fast train past the top especially with his talent #RHEC
Who agrees upchurch should start doing advice videos lol I would love to get advice from him he seems like he knows what he's doin so what y'all think .... drop a like or dislike to show if you agree or disagree
These aren't lyrics, this here is poetry. You're why they call song-writers artists. Do I detect a little hat-tip to Possum (George Jones) in the title? Dig it. Much love Church. I only recently found you, I'm amazed by your depth & talent. Blown away by each song I hear.
SONG IS AVAILABLE ON ITUNES & GOOGLE PLAY

Ryan, I'm not sure how you come up with the ideas for the songs you write, but your mind is incredible and I love it! You always bring some new angle...ever changing...is the things and places you go the inspection? Are your dreams like visions and you set them all to music, or do you know the beat as you write the lyrics?? Idk...but I'm amazed everytime I hear YOUUUUUU!!!
I wish I could meet you, your song has helped me get through my oldest son having cancer.....and he bought the White Lightning sticker for his truck....I hope this reaches you Ryan....because you have truly inspired me and my son,much love ❤️
Your music changed my life man. Literally. RHEC
Doesn't matter how down I am UP CHURCH always rises me back up ✌️
Theirs a potato Sanchez joke that I tell also that's cool
His voice is amazing all his music is a masterpiece there's not a song I don't like but this one and my neck is to red is my favorite!!!
he put his soul into all of his songs but…. This song just renders complete perfection the songs plus the music video I love the intro like his tribute to all of the legends.
Whenever I miss Tennessee I listen to Upchurch 🥺
Tennessee isn’t my home state, but it sure did feel like home.
Who's here before it blows up?
ASAP YUNG yee yee
ASAP YUNG mee
ASAP YUNG here
ASAP YUNG me
He's straight up a muthafukkn artist whose dedicated to get what he wants n don't stop till the got it
We need another song that hits at the same level as this
Remember me
Desperado is close
I am going threw the worse shit in my life and this song is on repeat for the remainder of my life brother you make me think I have someone in life just the words make me have faith
Chasin white lightnin!!!! love this song
Never in a million years would I say a country/rap song was good. Just to be real about it. Country does not resignate with me at all. This though...damn...you got me. I am shocked at how good you are.
remember blue grass folk and country gospel were all seperate at one time. However there are those like Upchurch that bring you al of them all of the time.
Cali chick here born and raised in the city. I’ve been listening to rap, hip/hop, R&B all my life and you have a new fan. You sir have mad skills and I hope to see you grow in the future. I respect that you are true to yourself and that comes through in your music for sure. I wish you all the best in your many careers and life.
Man of thousand years! Who’s still jamming to this golden jam that will be heard for centuries to come? Keep that shine my southern brother! RHEC

Being from Camden and growing up on kentucky lake will give u appreciation for this guy, he's hella cool representing our culture an what truly defines ppl who understand the south and our mud holes and love for the land an culture we were born and bred into . Thanks church!! Hope your holidays and everyone reading this has a good one ☺️☺️
im from madisonville witch ic like 30 min from ky lake
Some people go for gold, then lose sight of their shine
And the sparkle that once was, gets tarnished in mind
They forget what they was after they fell off the track
And their vision that was vivid gets lost in pitch black
Age starts to take place like a bomb that keeps tickin'
And they regret not chasing after it after they had the ambition
The ambition fades away like the red on a rose
And the regret sucks the life from everybody I suppose
But my rose ain't red, it won't die but ain't fake
But when I die, I'll drown myself in these lyrics I speak
White. Lightnin'. Real Church. -Thank you for Sharing.
To this day this song still gives me chills because it’s that GOOD!
Yessssss!!
The beginning is my favorite part 🤯🤯
Thank You So Much Upchurch For this Song!!!More than a song for me!!!!!!!

With everything going on in my life. Church is one that’s makes me get out of my head and forget all bills I’m behind on and my boyfriend being in jail. It’s a stress reliever for me. Thank you Upchurch for be there through music.

A friend suggested I listen to this, knowing that I am not a fan of country, hip hop, or rap. I thought they were just trying to get a laugh out of me but this. This song is amazing!!
Nooo don't bury the outlaws! You are amazing. A perfect blend of all of my roots
This song gives me chills every time I hear it! Ryan is such a gifted artist and I will always be a fan for life ♥️

This song always gives me 5 mins of peace when I hear it. It helps when I'm feeling down, so I just put it on repeat and try to forget about everything.
Just liking and commenting so you always remember to come back to your peaceful place ❤️
THIS SONG MAKES ME REMEMBER I COME FROM. I KNOW I LIVE IN THE CITY NOW BUT MY HEART IS IN THE COUNTRY WHERE I WAS BORN AND RAISED.

Hands down he is and will forever be a legend in our hearts. For years to come because it is what it is and will never be the same after he's gone. 💯

Who's a more versatile artist upchurch or God?
Trick question fuggin
Upchurch is god
Had a buddy o mine stop by my house, and he was listening to this in his truck so I ask who it was. He tells me, we do whhat we do and I came back in and looked it up. I can honestly say that I damn near lost it at how AMAZING his voice is, and it came out of nowhere. Very nice.
keep up the good work ... really like the song love the video keep it up

I’ve been listening to Church since I was 7 I heard you’re music in my dads truck and fell in love with your lyrics and I’m now 13 still bumping your songs and I wold love to meet you upchurch
Good one, skin. Back at 'em again son! Keep up the good work.
I want to grow up to be like you upchurch, your the one I look up and see my role model... your music is the best and your music videos are the best, I want to have a career like yours. Your music touches my soul and gets me lost in a world of an empty mind... your the most badass hick hop singers I listen to, your lifestyle is teaching me to get through the hard things in life and get all the bullies out of the way and don’t let anyone crush your dreams.
yes people think I'm crazy because I'm 45 and I listen to his music

Lisa Mills Music has no age or race so who's ever saying that is a idiot
you can only make one person happy a day and I guess today just wasn't their day
I like this music as well I'm 50
I’m black and I’m rocking this😂😂🔥
And white lightning's still the biggest thrill of all. Merle Haggard- Okie from Muskogee 👍🏻

Jaden Firestone PREACH LOL
Aye follow my snap @watermalone_69
Jaden Firestone can we talk
Jaden Firestone you are so pretty
Chasing white lightning…. Upchurch goes hard!!!
Upchurch u are the man RHEC🇺🇸🇺🇸
Who agrees upchurch should start doing advice videos lol I would love to get advice from him he seems like he knows what he's doin so what y'all think .... drop a like or dislike to show if you agree or disagree
agreed
Upchurch has inspired me to become a country rap artist I've already started working on two songs. I could really use advice from him.
I need some advice right now lol so I could totally use it
Alex Regis you gonna drop those songs on youtube
Yes, that would be awesome
Love you church I look up to you your the best I bet you're gonna be history
These aren't lyrics, this here is poetry. You're why they call song-writers artists. Do I detect a little hat-tip to Possum (George Jones) in the title? Dig it.
Much love Church. I only recently found you, I'm amazed by your depth & talent. Blown away by each song I hear.
amen!
