" Voices screaming in my head saying
"No one's gonna love you like you love them" "
Realest lyrics I've heard in a real while.
This stands out & hits hard
We hear you 🫶
That is so true though. I loved all my ex friends too much and when they left it only hurt that much more
Its a very hurtful truth that many of us go through, so many interactions with one another just to find out it was one sided in the end.
I can relate....
Fake friends are even worse than actual bullies cuz they don't make it obvious they're not on your side IMO
I'm of the mind that they are the on the same level of evil in different ways. But I definitely hear what you're saying. Being hurt by someone you thought you could trust is definitely worse on most occasions than being hurt by someone you know hates you openly.
It’s crazy how relatable this is
Yea
fr...this hit me hard
Fr
Hope it helps 🫶
@@CitizenSoldier it does
“But I don’t even like me so it makes sense” is a hard hitting line for me. There are days I hate myself and wish I could just be someone different but I don’t think I would like that person either
We relate 🫶
I don't know you but I hear you
You are loved by people you don't even know! Thank you for being here and being so strong. The world needs you, you just can't see it yet ❤
I understand you my friend because how can you love someone else when you hate yourself
That's my whole life, wishing I could be some1 else every day ....
..... There isn't a day that goes by I don't still, on a Subconscious Lvl, feel alien in my own skin, like I should have never been born ....
I feel you, bud, and you might not want to hear it but... Try it. Try to become that person you would like to be. You may find something along the way that you like better. Maybe the self-hatred is the one that tells you that you wouldn't like them, and it's lying to you. Maybe, when you get there, you really don't like the person you've become, but if so, you're already one step closer to finding out who you'll like to be, because you've crossed out some things.
You'll find whoever you want to be, eventually. I believe in you.
'They're real sweet to my face, but it's bullshit' Realest shit I've heard in a long time.
First swear word stronger than damn or hell (or even the "ass" from You Are Not Your Past) in a Citizen Soldier song
@@MrEnzio777 Yep, and I think it makes sense it was said by someone who isn't Jake :D
@@MrEnzio777Exactly my thoughts!
I HAVEN’T HEARD NEW MEDICINE IN AGES. This band is the gift that keeps on giving when it comes to my childhood. First 4th point, then Smash into Pieces, now New Medicine… what’s next? Set it Off? I love ya’ll so much 😭
A collab with Set it off and Citizen Solider would be absolutely fire
That makes two of us, I was surprised to see them, and on top of that it was a collab with Citizen Soldier.
Glad to hear that 🫶
What’s next?
Starset
@@LastCatalyst24 that would be awesome.
Ive had many fake friends that contributed to the worst times of my life but thankfully i have some good friends that have made life worth it again :)
Hope anyone dealing with people like this have better people around them in the future
I feel bad for you I never had a fake friend but I might have one soon and this is might be my favorite song by them
@@Alexisburns916 it really is a good song
Now this is a song! Nice work
@@DragonKnight077 yeah what was your favorite song before this song
@Alexisburns916 I like the epicness of six feet under but there's a bunch I really enjoy
"Got voices screaming in my head, saying no one's gonna love you like you love them" This is the most relatable line I've ever heard.
🫶
I felt every word of that line..
This song pretty much sums up my life. I spent years helping people, trying to help them have a better life. Stopped several from hurting themselves, from being bullied, even gave them money when I could. Gave so much of myself to my so called "friends". But almost as soon as I graduated all my friends said the hell with me. Most either blocked them or now act like I no longer exist. Text them often only to be left on read or ignored entirely. Of course there are some who occasionally message me, only when they want or need something and if I can't help them they immediately block me. It's funny how friendship works these days, people are only your friends when they think they'll benefit from you in some way. When they don't they cut ties immediately. Because of my dear "friends" I've been extremely cynical, bitter and depressed. To the point where I can't even stand to be around people who are remotely happy. Because it bothers me in multiple ways and just angers me even though I know it shouldn't. Last I heard from who I thought was my best friend, they only got ahold of me so they could try to hook up with my cousin. Honestly, if this is how friendship works now then I'd rather die alone. Instead of living with fake ass fuckers who'd just as soon leave you to rot the minute they saw a better option. Love how this song seems to capture the essence of how I've felt for so long now.
It's so sad very sad 😢 😢 . What a painful thing 😢 💔
I think the thing that kills me the most about my so-called "friends" is now I literally find it nearly impossible to trust anyone. Whether it be people I just meet or even family. I'm always expecting the worst possible thing out of them, to the point when they are actually legitimate it scares me. Like it's a trap. And on top of that I've... begun noticing how being around other people who are generally happy, it tends to piss me off. Especially with family, and it shouldn't. They haven't done anything to me... it's just I can no longer stand to be around their happiness, when I can barely stay in a content mindset. So not only did my friends throw me to the curve, they took a piece of me with them. 😢
@@rayconner2701I understand.
I've never liked envy in all its forms, but recently, I just watched this clip about friendship and promise, and I felt good and warm, but somewhere in the middle I just cried.
It became so hard for me that if I was alone at home, I would go down in tears without stopping.
And this.... I opened my eyes to how jealous I really am. I'm happy for them.
Their warmth warms them up.
But it's like salt on the wounds.
It makes you feel even worse.
Although the fact that I noticed it is still encouraging.
I am very sorry what you have experience in life. I wish you the best that life can give you.
Not always BFF means BEST FRIEND FOREVER Sometimes it means BIGGEST FAKE FRIEND 😔
This song is so relatable...
How'd you listen to it already?
@TOHFan3157 it's usually out on spotify from midnight of the day it comes out
@@TOHFan3157 it's been available on spotify for like a day now
@@DragonKnight077well yeah I stayed up until midnight for this song
@@DragonKnight077 yes
"Voices screaming in my head, saying no one's gonna love you like you love them."
A man finds himself lucky to have even one true friend. The kind of guy who if you call em, regardless of the time of day they will bend over backwards to help you even if it's burying a body with no questions asked. Despite doing it for multiple people I'm exceptionally lucky to have found several individuals that should the need ever arise, will show up as soon as they possibly can with a smile on their face and ready to throw hands! I hope everyone reading this finds themselves surrounded by such people, as blood rarely dictates the people one considers "Family".
🫶
This hits close to home because I have experienced this one too many times but now I have a real and reliable friend
🫶
I’m also blessed to have a best friend who has talked me down from that dark edge
1 is better than 10 fake ones. A learning thing.
So relateable. The ones who stay are your true friends
Facts 🫶
There will always be people who only spend time with you out of obligation or those who befriend you for their own selfish desires. But the ones who stick by you, even when you’re at your worst, are real and worth keeping. Love them because they love you too ❤
"Cant stop second guessing all the kindness" that the most reliable part for me.
Citizen Soldier and New Medicine. My two FAVORITE artists together this is truly a gift. Not too mention an unsurprisingly great song beautifully done.
Much love 🫶
This was exactly my mentality for so long. Especially the part where the voices remind you how "No one's gonna love you like you love them". That always seemed to be the case with my friends and my family. I cared so much about a few people now, let them in, only for them to show how little they cared about me. It seemed that I truly did trust too much. It seemed no one ever wanted to come into my world, instead I had to always strive to live in theirs. I've since found an independence. I see now that I don’t need people, and I've removed those people from my life. Still, I desire the company of others. And I've lucked out there. I've found a friend who is open and honest with me. A real friend, someone I've allowed close to my heart. And another friend who has helped me thourgh so many hard times. Its undescribable what they've done for. Saved my life at least a half dozen times. And I've finally reached a point with them where they've begun to open up about their problems. It feels, odd, to be here. From the boy who was ready to end the pain with a bullet, abandoned and alone. To this young man who has found self worth and people who love him. The doubt is still there. The voices that have been with me for so long. But their more constructive now, and the more abusive ones have grown quite, only cropping up in my darkest hours. I wonder, was it me? Was it God? Was I destined to succeed, or would I have died had I not be brave? And the greatest question that still lingers. Will it all end just as it has before? It's so much different this time, I'm so much stronger. But does that matter? Or will life just get worse then ever before so that it may break me all the same? Will I loose the relationship with the latter that I value so much? Will it end in hatred and fire like all the others? Or will it finally be different? The questions my mind contemplates. I might not be bleeding out on the ground, but by no means am I fully healed. Yet. I'm the best me I've ever been and I'm rather certain more healed then most of those around me. All this to say that this is a really good, enjoyable, and relatable song.
I needed this song, I have had a friend group for 7 years, I got into an augment with one of them. All of them stopped talking to me. And didn’t say anything to my face.
Bro the same shit happend to me to I had a fight with a friend because I didn't want to go beat up some kid for doing something to one of my other mates I said no and then thay left I never heard again until I saw that group on the news thank God I didn't go
I'm mainly a person who makes friends online, I'm not much of a social person and it feels like online people understand me and care about me more. But a lot of those friends I made have disappeared or something else. I also am known for getting with people online and have had my heart broken too many times so this song is really relatable
They don't pick up when you're calling from the deep end. This is so accurate I have so many fake friends 💔 great song
I have serious trust issues, but I'm lucky to have a few people I can call friends. They were there when I had nothing, so they deserve my love. ❤️
Listening to this really made me think for a while. I'm only 18, and I lost my best friend a few days ago to Cancer. He's been a predominant part of my life since we met. He helped me cope with bullying, family issues, depression, etc. The point is, I'm only just now realizing that he was the only true friend I've ever had. The people that I talk to don't seem like "real" friends to me. Sure, they're fun to hang out with every now and again, but I can't go to them when I need someone. They're all for having a good time, but when it comes to helping out, they're entirely unavailable. Something my best friend used to tell me was: "If friends we're money, I'd rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies." I think I'm finally, truly understanding what that means. So, thanks, buddy, and thanks, CS, for helping me realize that. I'm grateful to both of you.
"Voices screaming in my head saying "No one's gonna love you like you love them" realest sh*t I've heard ever!
I've had so many fake friends I can't even count it. There have been ones who are just backstabbers, and some who were worse that left permanent scars with me.
I had fake friends when I was in high school back in my freshman year I can relate to this🥺😥 thank you again ❤
This song is so good. Yet also sadly relatable after coming out a friendship with 2 backstabber
Thank you for making this day even more better after having my first shift in long time that I enjoy in awhile, I have hard times trusting people after having my trust broken a lot in my 29 years of life
This hits hard.This brought tears to my eyes... music really expresses the way I feel.. Love your music and thank you for making this
This relates to me so damn much, everyone I've known IRL have all betrayed me, backstabbed me, lied to me constantly and don't show the care in the world for me. No friends are better than fake people you don't need in your life
I'm too socially awkward to make fake friends lmao
I swear, Citizen Soldier always comes out with a song that I need in that moment XD
This is so relatable
So many of my friends have ghosted me, which have given me trust issues, and I end up second guessing my real friends and people being nice to me, and now I barely make friends
I used to have a lot of fake friends who didn't care for anyone but their self when I was a kid, tho I cut em out of my life a long time ago. My friends nowadays are much more genuine thankfully. Everyone deserves true genuine people in their life.
This is the most relatable song in the whole world. Can anyone explain how their songs have helped my depression so much?
And added to the playlist. Glad to see CS is getting the recognition they deserve from other groups/artists. Thousand Foot Krutch, Halocene, Halsey, SkyDxddy, Icon For Hire, Lo Spirit, Royal Bliss and now New Medicine.
There's no stopping this group. They're going places.
for being someone who constantly wants praise and acceptance... I relate
Ive been listening to this song on repeat all day. Its such a bop and a big mood.
I absolutely love the bridge
"Got voices screaming in my head, saying no one's gonna love you like you love them" ❤
It's scary how much i can relate to your songs this one got me thinking of all those fake friends of mine thank you for another amazing song
I’ve had this on loop for hours bc my friend I met on Airbuds recommended to me after we basically shared our life stories to each other.
I'm not usually a rock person, but this band...
The voices, the beat, the lyrics, the meaning...
Its all so good... And most of the meanings are so true..
Thanks for helping me through my tough times, I've thought of ending it before, but you guys have helped me stay here.
I came from trying to find a song, and scrolled through the song Face To Face, and I loved it, and then decided to go on your channel, and ended up obsessed.
Thank you, Citizen Soldier 💖
OK OK JAKES VOICE THO ON THE CHORUS I LOVE IT
Which Jake though? Both vocalists are named Jake, and both even have last names starting with S.
@@MrEnzio777 Jake Segura😆 but equally, the other is great too!
I love this song, Fake friends are such a big problem and it’s heartbreaking when someone you trust turns out to be one 😢of
This song hits different. "Guess I trust to much".
This is so true and relatable to me, and probably so many other people, cause it's not just the people you went to elementary, middle, or high school with. It's also colleges, workplaces, and, yeah, some in your own family, which is sad but not surprising 😔😢
I’ve been struggling so badly recently, and your music never fails to help me. ❤️❤️❤️ keep it up, love you.❤😊
Too true... it's amazing how you can put something so many think and feel into such mind-blowing songs!
The hardest hitting line is all of them my man
“Shutting everyone out’s how I’m coping”
Why mess with what works best!
One of My two favourite Bands are singing together such a heavy Song... a dream came true.
I came running when i got the notification, already sounds amazing
Another amazing & relatable song as always 🖤
So excited for the tour.
This song totally reminded me of "Heavy" by you guys and it made me start thinking of the bridge in the song. "Don't want anyone to drown with me, I'll lose everyone if I'm not fake," and it made me think about how "Heavy" and "Fake Friends" can be 2 different perspectives of 2 different people. While one is upset about having fake friends, a fake friend might be distancing themself from the friend to avoid them running away or pulling them down the rabbit hole of depression with them.
I've been a fan of these guys for 2 years and every time you guys continue to impress me with your music. I had the privilege of seeing and meeting them live, absolute class acts and generous dudes. This is exactly what we need in the world, you guys continue on being inspirations and continue on being Rock Stars.
To my 6th grade friends who sat me down to tell me what was ~ wrong ~ with me.
And my sophomore friends who saw me as a third wheel.
But a thank you to all my online friends… we are an awkward mess together that support each other to a healthier mindset. Y’all are the real ones.
I have this song on loop now. I personally don't have experience with this, but I know others have. This song also gives me more fuel for my character stories.
Sadly relatable!
Maybe because I am not always good enough...
But I am happy that - at least - I found a few true friends and great people!
I am so grateful to all of you!
LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH❤❤
Been in this situation one year ago with a fake friend but I am healing and this song describes my old feelings perfectly! Thanks for the wonderful song! ❤
I know it's bad, but your music just makes me grateful I'm not alone feeling like this. I hate that others feel this way, but I am just so tired of being alone and in pain.
This song is about a friend of mine and went straight into my soul🔥🔥🔥
I kinda feel this twords my family
I ended my friendship with my best friend after more than a decade. He always said he was there for me and when I really needed him, he wasn't by my side. I miss a real friend so much. Thank you for this song.
Please never stop doing Music. All of your songs are so relatable. I´m so happy to sing every song from my heart. Thank you so much
I relate to this song
I had so many fake friends that just used me so that they can get ahead in life, they used me and left me I trusted them so much but in the end they broke me and ever since I have a hard time making new friends because of them.
It’s crazy how when we’re more open about ourselves, they just stop being our friend out of nowhere.
3 years ago i started a new school and during the first class i was sat beside this girl. I decided to talk to her, and we quickly became best friends. Now, 3 years later, she has pretty much taken my spot in the friend group, and everyone from the group is ignoring me and hanging out without me and having fun while im just rotting in my room since no one is talking to me or replying to my messages
Jokes on you... I don't have any friends
I have a lot of bands that I love, but none have ever been so utterly relatable as this band.
Growing up, these have been the only friends that I've known. Right by me until they got bored of me or decided that who I was was a lot for them to put up with. Took me some time until I realized that it's better to be lonely than to be surrounded by fairweather friends that you can't truly trust and that don't think you're worthy of their time.
No one cares that you’re a loser
Love It. Great Song and Awesome Band
My whole life i have delt with fake friends, so when i played this song for the first time, tears filled my eyes. This song was something i really connected with, and its express the things i never was able to face.
Love this one! Had this experience a lot of times. After many years of getting "left for dead", I just grew too skeptical and distrustful. Every act of "kindness" towards me is left with questions and doubt.
Citizen soldier, I need you to know that your music saved my life, I was heading out the door to end my life when the song came on in my pocket. It stopped me in my tracks. I felt like God sent me that song! You made a difference, thank you 💕
I didn't even listen to it when it first dropped. I added it to my spotify. This video is the first time I'm hearing it lol
That's what CS do everytime... Crazy how they create relatable songs every single time.
Voices screaming in my head no one's gonna love you like you love them......that's spot on, felt that deep.
This song is was relatable Citizens Solider and New Medicine are the best duo in the past I don’t wanna be friends anyone who thinks I fake 😢
Been on loop all day and I haven’t listened to any other song
It kills me a little to be saying this, but I've had this thought in my head for a couple years now. Every single Lyric video since Sacred looks identical,,,,, Monochrome color palette, camera changing position chasing the lyrics, and stock images to accompany them. The overall quality obviously increased, but the approach remained exactly the same. It looked cool at first but it's been four years. This style went on through several albums, with only select few songs having a different approach. This makes me genuinely miss Relentless, because the lyric videos from then, thought simple, had a style unique to that album alone.
I saw New Medicine on the side stage at Uproar Festival in 2010 and they blew me away. The band were also selling their album at the end of the festival for $5 and when we listened to the CD we were slightly disappointed because they sounded WAY better live and the CD couldn't match their energy they had on stage. Definitely didn't see these two artists collab but I'm glad to see it.
Mad how many people can relate to this!! Fake people all around nowadays!! Keep ya heads up people there be real people out there, with the same intentions as you💯🙏💯🙏
I was friends with fake friends for 9 years. My feelings were always discarded and it broke me over and over again. Even though I know it was good for me, I use to feel so down whenever I thought of all the fun we had because I just can't believe just how much I trusted them and confided in them even though they put me down at every twist and turn. Fake friends are horrible, but once you have a true friend, it truly does help mend a broken heart.
I’m sorry for typing so late, but why does this have to be so relatable??? I love the music you make, so please continue making this awesome music!
"I don't even like me so it makes sense".... Damn that was a kick to the chest. I can't even tell you how many times I justified getting left behind with similar excuses 😬
Gosh this is too relatable. I opened up to people and they turned their backs on me, one even was emotionally abusive towards the very end of our friendship. Now I really have one left.... I'm hoping to connect with someone else too. But, for now, I'm just happy I made it out of those friendships alive and I'm happy I still have somebody left.
This is an emotional rollercoaster of a song, thank you for releasing it
This song is the emotions I'm feeling right now because lately I really feel like I've forgotten how to be a friend and understand friendship. Because everything seems to be one-sided and people don't appreciate the care I give. As always a great song from the amazing CitizenSoldier. Very glad I found your group as you have helped me through a lot with your songs. I hope others do too, we all deserve a better life so I wish everyone success and understanding of ourselves.
Damn this one hit me hard. Just lose few friends i did think was real friends but one thing happen and i lost them. And yesterday lost so called my best friend and you droppe this song. I always showed understanding for them but never got it back. Thanks for this song
Bravo🎉 a great and chill song to help me get over my 3rd and most recent life trama. I don't want to be loved by others anymore because no one will ever love me like i love them.
Doesn't mean I'll stop loving people. I'm just too burntout trying to help and be around them.
I absolutely love every song you guys have made. It's kind of sad to think that my life is so messed up that I can find something relatable in every one of your songs.😢
"Guess I trust to much " I stopped trusting for a while because of face friends . Cried to this song. Two favorite artists and the greatest song.
I still trust no one, my best friend hit me hard recently because now he's showing signs that he hates me
Citizen soldier is my new favorite band it’s my coping skill and is my anxiety medication
1:19 These lines hit so hard...
I don't know how you do it, but you always seem to release songs when I need them. Much love ❤️
I wouldn't say it's crazy but really sad how relatable this is
I started crying when i listened to this, i relate so much, it hurts because everytime i start to get comfortable with them and open up they abandon me or start to exclude me in activities, my close friends hang out all the time and never ask me if i want to hang out or not, my one friend I've known longer then anyone else in our group and they have all had sleepovers at her place, and i haven't even been to her place, its just not fair, im the back up friend, only recognized when they need me, i have a bunch of mental health problems and everytime i express my emotions i get dismissed or i apologize for being a burden and things like that, my one friend said i was to much and she needed space, or friendship hasn't been the same since then, people say I'm clingy but i am really just broken and need that reassurance that I'm accepted
Thank you for those who read this, i needed someone to talk to but i don't really have that luxury 😞
All of your music is so relatable and has always helped me with my mental health, I love you all so much and I'm so thankful!!! ❤❤
I have been so lucky to find out who my true friends are as I've grown. The ones that may not be in constant contact, but are always there and on my side. My former best friend ruined everything in my life, cost me my home and my pets, and tried to cost me my son. But the realest of the real are still there and are helping me pick up the pieces. I was blinded by that fake friend because we were so close. No more
I really want to cry I hope everyone knows that y'all are amazing and that y'all are so amazing and beautiful people ❤
