My name is Octavio, I am from Seville, Spain. I don't know why but country music and traditional American folk music have always touched my soul. Thanks to listening to a phrase pronounced in the Yellowstone series, I discovered this genius of modern music. Their songs move me, they touch my soul, as if, once, in another life, I had been born there. Thank you.

I was at the gym a day after my sister's funeral service and this came on with my workout music out of nowhere. It hit like a ton of bricks, I had to compose myself in the middle of a workout.
My name is Dong-Wang and just a few hours ago my dearest father passed peacefully after a 3 year battle with cancer. Listening to this song on my porch smoking a cigarette thinking about all the times my father had been there when i needed him most. I don't want to do it but I have to Just Let Go. Rest easy pop, I love you.
Woke up today and decided to kill my ego It ain't ever done me no good no how Gonna break through and blast off to the Bardo In them flowers of light far away from the here and now Taking a 49 divine day vacation From reality and all else in between Gonna transmigrate to my destination Far beyond time in an eternal dream Am I dreaming? Am I dying? Either way I don't mind at all Oh, it feels so good you just can't help but crying Oh, you have to let go so the soul may fall Oh my God, it's so beautiful Everything is a part of me It's so hard looking through all the lies made of wool But if you close your eyes it becomes so easy to see
From my interpretations regarding the 49 days I imagine it’s a Buddhist reference. Anywho. I hadn’t heard this song in a few years. Always been an absolute gem. In the last year or so I had decided to take the route of sobriety and my mind has finally let me take control of myself. My actions. My thoughts and feelings. I remember shit from when I was a child. Just 2 days ago I spoke with my grandfather about him teaching me to take control of the horses. After that conversation I hopped in my truck and this song came on. After it ended I drove in for almost 4 hours aimlessly in silence. It felt oddly incredible. I’ve never lost myself like that. I felt like my mind opened up. I listened to this song on repeat and I cried happy tears. My mind really opened up. It’s weird what the power of music can do. Sturgill I respect you a hell of a lot. I played it for my grandfather and he said how have I never heard that? He thought it was from the 70s. Anyways. I’m signing off now there’s my thoughts.
It'll be four years absolute sobriety for me in February.... never felt better ! It took awhile until I started finding all that I was looking for elsewhere inside myself and seeing it in others.... the song is absolutely incredible and that's what it takes for me to keep right-minded. May the powers that be, whether it's enlightenment or Turtles, Bless you and Bless all the grandpas and those that teach us in the world through their simple statements. The deeper I dig the easier it gets... I'm going to keep digging !
I swear my conscious led me here lol! I was tripping and kept hearing the words just let go , just let go over and over because I was fighting the trip. I finally let go and had an amazing experience. Woke up this morning and googled just let go and this song came up. It literally made me cry. Mind blowing how in sync we’re with the universe.
I'm a massive punk fan. Ramones Misfits Discharge Crass Naked raygun....the list goes on. But sturgill has always had a special place in my heart. I've been listening to him for around 15 years now and he never fails to impress me with whatever he puts his hands too. Cuttin grass is on heavy rotation and Sunday valley in my house.
The DMT description mixed with Buddhist doctrine is overwhelming. “decided to kill my ego” and “gonna break through and blast off to the Bardo” refers to taking 5-MeO-DMT and "bardo" is the state of existence intermediate between two lives on earth. Those who’ve taken 5--MeO-DMT often describe an “ego death” as the most liberating and impactful experience of their lives. “Taking a 49 divine day vacation from reality” is an undeniable reference to Buddha. After spending 49 days sitting under a Bo-tree meditating, Siddhartha Gautama became Buddha Gautama; he had finally reached enlightenment. “Oh my God, it's so beautiful Everything is a part of me” describes the sense of nirvana or being one with everything and is a common experience while on 5--MeO-DMT. Prepare for blastoff…
@@scylinx8585 listen to his song ‘Turtles All the Way Down’. He talks about aliens made of light that cut you open and pull out all your pain and mentions DMT.
I did a 5-meo-DMT ceremony about a year ago and this song does a remarkable job of describing something that simply can't be described as there are little if any visuals at a breakthough dose. If you take the hero's journey you will experience death of ego if you "Just let go" and that light that follows the black void is indeed beautiful! It's the most awe inspiring, blissful euphoria you can experience........No longer fear death
I've been struggling with depression and anxiety for a year and a half and I've contemplated trying something like what you experienced. Just don't know how to make that happen.
@@shanegord5139 I would highly suggest trying to improve your mental health a little first, then trying this. U know wanna go in when u are in a super dark place
@@shanegord5139 Just saw this. if you want help with it try shrooms! They are phenomenal for depression and anxiety and much easier to find. Start slow.......
You know you did good with your lyricism when a song that -- to me -- is clearly about psychedelics resonates so heavily with people in ways that have nothing to do with countercultural explorations at all.

Immediately when I heard this song that’s what I gravitated to! The Tibetan Book of the Dead as well, but glad to see someone else made the connection. He couldn’t have worded it any better.
@@whoknows8548 “Everything’s a Part of Me.” Had me thinking that as well, but like you mentioned ditching your ego rang strong to me! Kind of one of those clever songs like Prine’s Illegal Smile. Just subtle enough for most to never be able to interpret it, but if you know the experience it speaks volumes, and adds loads of connection to the lyrics. I’ve balled my eyes out in many a trip as well lol!
Ayahuasca has gotten much media attention in recent years but it's not really all that great. In fact, an Ayahuasca trip can be downright unpleasant. Magic Mushrooms are way way better in my opinion.
I'm blown away how people just make money posting other peoples shit, good for artist, free promotion, good for person posting cus its free money with zero talent, Joe Rogan clip channel is what this guy should create next, just post other people's shit cus you got nothing of value to give to the world lol

This will be played at my funeral

What a wonderful gift to receive. Especially from your wife. What a gal! You are a lucky man
You married well my amigo
Dmt is a beautiful thing. Thanks for noticing Sturgill!
Damn right
This song just hits
I'm just blown away that I never heard of this guy before 2021! How is Luke Bryan on the radio but this dude isn't?
@@4NoRaisin I need a little more than that. Im seriously perplexed
He keeps switch his music genres now he’s all blue grass🤷♂️🤦♂️

Am I dreaming? Am I dying?

True story
My absolute favorite Stugill song. These lyrics move mountains.
This song is the greatest songwriting interpretation of the Psychedelic experience ever written.
The Toad........100%
Man. Beautiful. My soul resonates with this song. People don’t expect people like you and me to be turned on. My favorite song ever written.
First line of this song is ABSOLUTE GOLD! Since hearing it, I'm trying to apply it to my every day life. I think those words are the past to peace.

it's a great song. all around stellar. Sturgill sings it great
@Bird Dawg not a day goes by buddy. He’s far too stubborn to do what he does on his own every day haha. 86 yr old full time rancher
Doin my best. Battling the dark times right now gaining new people. You know the deal. Keep on keeping on brother. ❤️
@Bird Dawg near 16 months now that I count.

Every time I think I've heard all of sturgill's songs, I find another jewel. Good Lord....he's the best. I never listen to anyone else anymore.
It seems that he has found a way to heal his soul. However.... his songs heals mine! Thank you for your honesty ❤
Nobody dies healed and there are no quick fixes, were all a work in progress

Pretty good song. Sturgill is creative and lyrical as can be. He puts you in the drivers seat
Listen to all around you

The Sturge is all you need to know when it comes to good music❤
Beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful this song hits feelings I didn’t know I had
I have been away from home for way to long. I am missing a generation of great musicians.

I just heard this song two days ago and it definitely made me think he's talking about DMT. Great to hear this in his form of music. 👽🧘♂️🕉
@@scylinx8585 listen to his song ‘Turtles All the Way Down’. He talks about aliens made of light that cut you open and pull out all your pain and mentions DMT.

He should be more recognized than he is ! Awesome singer!! Better than the country singers of today!
Every line has such a deep meaning
Amazing singer.
Why haven’t I heard of this before?
Check out Turtles All The Way Down. And The Storm. All Around You... Check all of his shit, it's fantastic
@@ianthompson9236 i wil definitive check it out thanks
still does it .. Beautiful song reminds me of the loss of the one who holds my heart and forever will.
Me to my friend
Songs about DMT! If you like the song you like DMT even more. ;)
What a great song and artist. Thanks sturgill
Traveling the Coast up in Northern California. Came across a gas station and heard this song. Was blown away ❤️ aboustelly Adore it☺️
Awesome song
This is my 2020 anthem. Thank you Sturgill!🙏
What an incredible artist
Love this song so much... wow, it's perfect. Thank you so much.
If I never knew, I could tell you Sturgill came from Kentucky. Am I dreaming or am I dying…
Man I love LSD!!!❤❤❤
This song has to be about a spiritual awakening of sorts...perhaps a psychedelic induced one. It slaps me in the feels.
I believe he’s mentioned his experience with DMT being particularly heavy during his TinyDesk
I cried like a witch the first time I herd this
This song needs to be longer
I Love My Sturg💛
Overview
Lyrics
Listen
Woke up today and decided to kill my ego
It aint ever done me no good no how
Gonna break through and blast off to the Bardo
In them flowers of light far away from the here and now
Taking a 49 divine day vacation
From reality and all else in between
Gonna transmigrate to my destination
Far beyond time in an eternal dream
But am I dreaming or am I dying
Either way I don't mind at all
It feels so good you just can't help but crying
You have to let go so the soul can fall
Oh my God it's so beautiful
Everything is a part of me
It's so hard looking through all the lies made of wool
But if you close your eyes it becomes so easy to see
I created a sturgill Simpson IHeartRadio station it's supposed to play him and other performers like him but it is has never played anybody else but him because nobody's like him
Woke up today and decided to kill my ego
It aint ever done me no good no how
Gonna break through and blast off to the Bardo
In them flowers of light far away from the here and now
Taking a 49 divine day vacation
From reality and all else in between
Gonna transmigrate to my destination
Far beyond time in an eternal dream
But am I dreaming or am I dying
Either way I don't mind at all
It feels so good you just can't help but crying
You have to let go so the soul can fall
Oh my God it's so beautiful
Everything is a part of me
It's so hard looking through all the lies made of wool
But if you close your eyes it becomes so easy to see

If that first line don’t get you I’m not sure we could ever be frens….
Exactly
Amen to that. Every time I hear it's a reminder to let go of my ego driven fears. And just turn up Sturgills music.
Sturgill Simpson saved Country Music.
I don't mind at all❤
I'm a sucker for a song about eating shrooms...
Pure joy fucking amazing thank you
What a beautiful song about DMT
Went through a miscarriage, this song saved my sanity...

Missing my entity. Her legs taller than the sky. So warm. So understanding. So far away from here.

What is the bardo?
To keep it simple: it is the Tibetan Book of the Dead. There's more to it than that....but it's the easiest answer for now.
The Bardo is a Tibetan word for a transitional state of existence between death & rebirth.
So many people in these comments have never taken LSD and it shows 😂😂😂
