What a beautiful storyteller and somehow he kept his gentleness even though he's been so violently abused by his mom. There's truly something special about him. God bless him.
You can tell that he is a sweet soul. I cannot fathom the evil of his mother abusing her babies to that extent.. horrifying. Its astounding he's still here, I don't think I would be.
He totally deserves a break. If someone helped him out they'd never regret. He's got heaps of integrity and a soulful insight on his past. He was that one child awake when his mother wanted to wipe out the family. There's something precious about him.
@@Sangotayo well, I enjoy reading people's body language and the text that they have. There's certain towels people have that they don't even realize when they're not being 100%, so I form my opinion. Opinion it's just an opinion and you know what they say about opinions. It's just my thoughts and what I personally think. But like I said, God bless him either way. Regardless, this man has had it tough and needs all of our prayers..
“I’ve been through it all.. why wouldn’t it end this way” I cry with him. The evil that lingers in this world is so distressing. Watching people relive their trauma is indescribable. As he speaks I see the little boy he was when he was afraid in those times. I just want to hug him💔
Tre told his story so poetically. His heart full of compassion shines through the darkness of his pain. Tre, if you see this, please know I (and many others) are rooting for you. Your introspection and will to be the change for the better in this world, to spread love, will guide you beautifully. Thank you for sharing your story.
I have never wanted to reach thru a screen and just hug someone so badly. My heart just aches for him. He has endured too much pain in his lifetime. Lord, I pray this man's life has happier, loving days ahead. 🙏🏼❤️
Man this guy really touched me... if I was in a better financial situation, I definitely donate to him.. I really hope somebody hears his music and wants to sign him or help him get it going... although my childhood wasn't the greatest I can't even imagine having childhood he had... God bless you Tre! Stay strong my brother
Tre has such a tender soul despite all the turmoil he’s endured, I pray he gets to a place of peace and prosperity!!! I hope his life turns out for the better
Thank you so much for sharing this. I am a veteran teacher in the inner city. When I first started teaching, I used to go home crying almost every day because I felt so helpless to do anything to change the circumstances of some of my 1st and 2nd-grade students. I knew some were homeless, hungry, and carrying an adult's burden to be the "little man" to take care of baby brothers and sisters because momma was running the streets. Some came to school angry, defiant, and always ready to fight. Some arrived at school exhausted because of all-night parties or because of fear to go to sleep for a variety of reasons...physical abuse, sexual abuse...My heart was broken for them. I quickly realized that crying about it was doing more harm than good...in fact it was useless. Instead, I worked on building authentic relationships with my babies. I tried to find something positive about every single student and (against my colleagues' advice) visited their homes to tell their parents or whoever they lived with something positive, and completely genuine about their child. I wanted them to be just as proud of them as I was. I couldn't always call because some of them didn't have phones and had no transportation to be able to come to school (or money to take a cab or bus). In any case, thank you for sharing your heart, Tre. As an elementary teacher, I have always felt like I sow the seeds but never see the end product...I often wonder if what I do/did ever made a difference for my students. I'm sorry you had to go through everything that you went through. You sound like you landed on your feet and are headed in the right direction. Again, thank you so much for sharing! Many blessings to you.
@@puckloki873 Such a pity that you made such a huge assumption about my post. Perhaps you came up with teachers that held no expectations for you...that's sad. I didn't want to write a novel about how I turned all of the stupid crying into very high expectations for my students. It is extremely clear, however, that you are not an educator. Any good teacher knows that no learning will take place if a students' basic needs aren't met first...the need for feeling safe, fed, understood, respected. As a result, my students were the highest performing in my school. My principal had me teach the other teachers my methods for increasing literacy and math scores. I went into the students' neighborhood and put together literacy workshops for the parents (in which I paid for the materials and on my own unpaid time). I can completely understand if you are making a statement about the current public education system...expectations do not necessarily measure proficiency in reading, writing, and math. These days it is about shoving a bunch of scripted propaganda down their throats and making sure we stick to the pacing chart supplied by the district. Accommodating a variety of learning styles is pretty absent as well as teaching students to think critically. Should a teacher get out of line and actually push students to perform academically these days, parents are quick to challenge the teacher to back down so that their little "peanut" isn't stressed at school. At one point, we were even told to give students a D- even if they hadn't turned in one single assignment in the entire semester. Our hands are tied in the present-day educational system. 30 years ago, we could really teach. Teaching was a craft in understanding the whole child to be able to individualize and accelerate learning and promote critical thinking...not so anymore.
I would love to see updates on his story and his music advancements if possible! He seems like such a beautiful souls that was raised in a tragic and merciless environment. I hope he is able to cling onto music and catch a break.
When he started crying my heart completely broke. He went through so much at such a young age and the fact that he can even understand why his mom was the way she was shows immense growth but trauma like this is never fully healed. I’m praying for this man and his future 🥺🙏🏽
I cannot fathom the pain those children went through...It's a miracle that he's still here. Its hard to comprehend. I wish I could hug him and erase everything that happened to him.
We can do more than pray. We can make education about abuse mandatory teaching in every school. It's already done in Indiana. Also, NO CHILD should be allowed to be missing from school for a month. That's just insane.
@@24tommyst Absolutely! I substituted for a while and you could see the little ones had something vile going on at home without seeing any bruises. There has to be a way where the school system could intervene. This is horrible. 🥺
@@letakeokuk5446 That must be so frustrating! Poor critters...they depend on adult society to protect them and it's often just not working. I'm hopeful it can be fixed, though. Public schools seem like the best place to fix this issue, imho. It's where 90% of kids are accessible to the community.
Jesus mark,this is a special man. I’d love to meet him,hang out with him,have some fun. He deserves the best things in life after what he’s been thru.I wish him nothing but the best.
As a mom of 4 and grandmother of 11, 😭😭😭 i just want to hug and hold that little boy until the cows come home. Your story makes my heart hurt... ❤️. *hugs*
@@nqueen7326 girl same, now I’m determined to be the parent for my kids that I needed when I was their age. My past has made me a better person, but it hasn’t been easy. We will thrive ❤️
It's rare that someone going through such trauma would end up having such a gentle empathetic soul!! What a courageous person he is!! Usually people become bitter and the cycle continues on. God bless you !!!
I cannot thank you enough for giving people the chance to tell their stories and reminding them that they're beautiful people no matter what paths they're on in life. You show us that humanity is still alive in this rugged world. Sending you, your beautiful guests, and those reading this all my love, warmth, and the best in life.❤️
I love how this dude tells his story, i feel like there’s so many relatable topics , emotions , , numbness, humbleness. Bless this brotha . I wish you nothing but the best big dawg!
This hit really hard. My sister is adopted and close enough to this man’s age. I’m from the same area, there was room for more kids in my family. I’m not a religious person but for what it’s worth bless this man.
Sometimes I think there could be a better way to match kids who are orphaned or abused with families willing to take more. I sat in foster care and kid institutions, too, and I hate to think about how many there are now.
@@brittaolson6550 I agree. It’s a tragedy that we have so many would be families not being matched with kids. Being on the family side of the process it wasn’t easy, cheap, or without a world of stress for my parents. Not sure taking out those descriptions would make it any better, but it would make it faster, less difficult, and open to more families.
Heartbroken over the amount of pain Tre has endured in his lifetime and I’m inspired by his kind gentle personality and strong faith, despite it all. His story moved me to tears. It reinforced my belief that if we would all extend a bit more compassion, kindness and love to those whose backgrounds are unknown to us we can change this world one person at a time.
Having an abusive childhood is part of the reason I was initially drawn to this channel. Personal experiences have always peaked my interest; so, I understand his pain. When you’re an abuse survivor, you never really heal - kinda like being an alcoholic. It’s a daily struggle. I’m willing to bet my bottom dollar that he has C-PTSD like I do. I miss the relationship my mother and I could have had. But when she passed away, it was like a weight lifted off my shoulders. I can literally feel his pain through the way he told his story. Bless his heart. 💔
Both of my parents died when I was younger and people always say "I'm sorry that happened to you", and my response has always been "I'd rather have parents die young and love me for the short time they were here than them live forever but show me no love" and this story is just one of many reasons why I have felt that way. Keep your head up sir, you have been through a lot but I promise there is enough love on this earth for all of us. We appreciate you.
This is one of the best ones hands down. You can see there’s a level of grace and clarity in his eyes. That’s true strength. All blessings your way tre
As a mom I want to hug him so tight and let him get it all out because his story is so heartbreaking. I pray he finds his way and God blesses him abundantly!
This man is wise. He's feeling deeply and thinking deeply. I have a lot of respect for you Tre. There is a purpose for you here. Listening to you face your truth gives me hope that I can also respect what I've been through and respect myself to the same level.
I hope we get a part 2 to his story! Watching him and hearing how God protected him over the years is incredible! I wonder what happened to his other siblings and mother!?!? Does anyone know how to find his music?? I like to support him!
The rich see an economic crisis as a garage sale and also the rich stay rich by investing and diversifying their portfolio with stock, crypto currency investment which is the wisest thing every individual need to do and it is really profitable.
You are right about that do you mind sharing with me how to get intouch with Mrs Amy Robinette. I have little to no knowledge about crypto currencies and I have seen the rise from 100 USD to over 50k USD in the last few years.
Tre you are a strong man to be able to talk about this, please keep telling your story there is kids out there that this is happening to right now that need to hear this , it may help give them the strength to make it out, your mother was sick to do the things she did , gods with you brother you can do anything you want in life theres a reason you slipped death all those times dont forget that.
His mom sounds like she might have had paranoid schizophrenia. Thinking she could read the kids minds and beating them mercilessly. Sounds like psychosis.
Finding a loved one who you really cared about deceased is a feeling I wish on no one. I found my father deceased inside his home last December and experienced the same type of odd feeling he did. From the moment I pulled up to his house, I just knew something bad happened. I immediately felt a dark energy over his house. He died at 56 and left me at age 24. Rest In Peace Dad.
I watch alot of the videos,but this one had me about to cry with him. Tre,You are here for a reason. Don't ever let the devil have you question your existences. I wish you all the best and many blessings🙌🏾
This one got me , the amount of pain he’s endured it’s overwhelming- he seems like he has a gentle soul despite all that life has thrown at him. Tre you have family here, I wish I could hear your music. Don’t give up on music
Young man, my heart goes out to u. I feel ur pain bc I too was raised by a demented woman. My mom was naturally born crazy, never drugs or alcohol…Find u a women or therapist that can help u overcome ur traumatic childhood. Peace will come within. Don’t give up. U are loveable, valuable and worth it.
My heart literally aches for this man and the childhood he didn’t have. My childhood wasn’t shit but it also wasn’t this. I hope life is gentler to him.
Tre's story is so heartbreaking, I hope life has treated him better now. I'm a survivor of childhood trama myself. My mom's man used to pull guns on us and as the oldest I was the one screaming and running to call the police. It started when I was in the 3rd grade and continued until I left home at 19. There were times when the gun was handed to me. I will continue to pray for Tre for the rest of my life.
Tre if you’re ever see this just know that I want to thank you for sharing your story brother from the bottom of my heart. The part when you told the story of how you wanted to remember your brother, the day you ran away rather than how things ended up made me cry and I haven’t cried in a long time. I’m grown man around the same age as you and your story will stick with me as I move forward in life. Just know that you never know what your entire life’s story is, you’re writing it everyday. I never heard your music but just watching you tell your story will remain with me and help get through tough times too especially your determination to at least want to help others in some capacity. I wish you a great life ahead and I pray that God heals your pain and gives you endless blessings. Peace.
Hey TRE, your story does help! I watch every morning and every story becomes part of my recovery!!! and that gives me at least 1 more day of life. I must admit that you have me in tears this morning, your story is 1 of the most painful I have seen on this channel and I have seen pretty much every video mark has uploaded! so please know you are helping and I am very impressed by your strength!!!!!!! if you can keep going then so can I and so can every 1 else that see's this! have a great day, im routing for you!
Hey Gram cracker, wats up man! This one was ruff…huh. God Bless him he’s doing alright. Even with all his story, he seems like he’d be a fun guy to hang out with. He carries himself like a cool guy. As for you GRAMfather clock, one day at a time, man. I hope you have a good day.
@@myeyeswentdeaf6213 good morning my brother! Yeah dude is a real 1 for sure! I hope you have a great day and I hope it's a beautiful morning in NYC, like it is in Denver today! I miss the east coast, I was born in white plains and my grandparents lived in scarsdale, I have some amazing memories of that amazing place!
@Gram #7 White plains….huh. Alright. Yeah it’s a sunny 50 degrees right now here. I think it’s gonna be a good day and I’m in a good mood today idk why.
So many of us are suffering from the Pain of the past and how we become prisoners of our past. So many people have gone through so much pain and hurt that our lives show the hurt. I've seen death and I've died about three times and I'm still here, my heart goes out to this precious young man. God bless him Lord and keep helping him.
Sometimes I think we are living in hell. Hold your head high young man...fight every demon that trys to pull you off your path. Your an angel and here for a reason. Love from Toronto Ontario..your story is your legacy. I'm so sorry your life has been so hard. Please stay close to us and keep us posted. Mark...bring him back, this is one man that deserves so so much more ❤
Made me happy to hear the Judge was able to see who you were even without someone advocating for you, that your intentions were not malicious, and stood up for you and what was fair.
The fact that Tre is even still walking around after all he has been through means he has a purpose in this world. Thank you for being open enough to share all that you did. I am saying a prayer for you right now. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Grown man who has been through so much but I feel like you can still see that lil boy searching for love in his eyes..TRULY Heartbreaking. I'd really love to hear his music.
This one took me two days to fully get through. I hope his story resonates with someone who needs it. I appreciate the beauty in which he told an incredibly horrific and traumatic childhood story and the pain it created and creates. I wish him self love and peace in his life with all of my heart and soul!!! ✌️xoxo
My heart goes out to this man. I’ve learned a lot from hearing his story and it reminded me of a lot of things that are important to remember. We only see the outside, the reactions and have no idea what traumas a person has been through. I hope that this man will find peace, happiness and success in his life. To have been through so much and survive takes strength and perseverance. Thank you for sharing your story, you are in inspiration to me. 💝
This man truly has a gift for telling a story and having people feel his pain. I'm so sorry he went through such a hard life but he is definetly a beautiful soul. I hope he can live the rest of his life in peace and love.
I really felt that when he said "if there is somebody listening take the pain one day at a time" wow these testimonies have me thinking of being a better person on a daily basis we need more love in this cold cruel world
The thing he said about your body "giving you morph." is actually a real thing, our bodies and bodies of most animals release opioids to combat injuries & pain. Isn't nature amazing?
I swear I had THEEE WORST toothache once and though I’d die. The pain lasted for over an hour and out of nowhere it mildly subsided, but in the strangest way. I’m not a mommy but I’d equate it to the pain of child birth. Right hand to god..😂
I believe our Creator put this in place for us out of love the same as when the brain dissociates during abuse to protect the mind from the unthinkable
Dear Tre I hope u take the time to read all the comments every single one and you allow yourself to feel all the love care and strong warm healing hugs that we all have for you. We are your family from all around the world and we are proud with you and we love you thank you for sharing with us. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
This man has been through so much. I can't imagine how awful his childhood was and then losing his brother like that. I hope you find a way to get past the pain. Keep doing your music. Don't give up. Dang. Nobody should have to go through this much. I pray that you find peace.
Some people go thru so much and still are able to grow to be such strong humans. I salute u Bruh and I’m so glad u was able to tell us your story! Your amazing 🙌🏿💪🏿
I left my parents house at 15. My mother was a beater, a neurotic, a screamer, a Christian. My parents were not getting along. I was hungry all the time. Life was pure hell. I can relate to this story.
Tre is an incredible man… My heart goes out to him and I wish I had an answer for him and so many of these amazing people. I will never understand how a parent, any parent, can hurt their children on purpose in any way. I just don’t get it… Thanks for sharing your story young man and thank you Mark for giving the platform. God bless.
I was abused by my mother and the way he explained the terror and the feeling it literally made me feel the worst dread ever and goosebumps every where. It gets better brother I promise man. I've been on top and I've been at the bottom and once we forgive them for what they did life gets alot better. It took me 20 years to forgive her. I still don't talk to her but just being able to say to myself that I forgave her was enough. Much love from michiga
Much respect Ray. Hold your head high knowing you’re a better human being than most. Forgiveness isn’t typically for the other person anyways, it’s got to help you and you alone or it’s pointless. You’ve got an inspiring vibe about you
Wow I have never ever in my life heard a bone chilling story as this one, it will last with me for a long time. This is really hard core abuse. This man is so amazing, and strong.
Damn this guy been through hell and back. I wish him the best in life with his music and just everything else. You're a tuf dude tre. Keep your head up the best you can. One love dude.
@Chris Walker - Sorry for your struggles as i believe people individually when they say they have had a tough life. I hope you the best in life and the ability to over come your struggles. How ever i don't think blanketing an entire race with anything ever is factual. Careful with all that blaming another person because of their color skin and just assuming they have had it easy because of that.
I've watched many of these amazing story tellers take to the podium to recount diabolical events, also some gritty and dangerous situations and overwhelmingly moving accounts of lifes lived on the edge. Tre's life story and the way he told it was both moving and captivating ! I lost count of how many times I had an overwhelming urge to just hug and hold him. I've never rooted for someone as much as I'm rooting for Tre . Hold in there Tre... there are those of us out here whose life you have touched and who are sending you SO much love and good will. Including me ! Best wishes from England. 😊💕 P.S...I think for what it's worth, it is the title given to his story "Dodging death " that accounts for less views than others ? Had it been titled " A survivor of extreme child abuse " the views would erupt.
I feel your pain bro and I’m sorry it happened to you I really am. My father beat me everyday and some days so bad I would lose consciousness. I’m older now and have no relationship with him, life is ok bro keep strong and keep going.
Dearest Tre, I hope you can feel my arms around you, holding onto you for dear life. I’ll hold you until you can feel some of your pain going away. I don’t know you, but I feel nothing but love and hope for you. I’ll be praying for you on my hands and knees to help you. You’ve suffered long enough. Thank you so much for sharing a small part of your story. You matter and I know you’ve made a difference in peoples lives.
Tre thanks for sharing your story, people think happyness is a constant we should achieve but as I've gotten older I've learnt that part of being human is suffering and happiness comes in small amounts, the key is to notice it when it passes through
Tre is an amazing survivor. He has so much insight. Mark, please bring him back. His childhood makes mine look good. There is always someone who has had it tougher. It always hurts more to hear and see someone else get beat than being beat yourself.
Thanks for sharing Tre. I too come from a physically abusive childhood with lots of pain, suffering an always in trouble trying to find an escape. You brought me some peace listening to your story. I still at 35 often feel alone an helpless wondering who can I trust to love me when no one ever even showed me how to love me. I too turned to music for an outlet. God bless you brother. I’m proud of you, I believe in you you’re a beautiful someone. Keep going man. 🤙🏼
God, I feel like I am in the room with Tre, listening to this, it is so genuine. Hopefully, it doesn't take him a lifetime to get past such a horrific, abusive childhood & he can go on to live a good life.
I'm listening to this for the third time in a row. Think it's the only interview I've put on repeat. But I feel like I'm there with him and he's talking to me. And there's just something so genuine about it? It doesn't feel rehearsed or manipulative, or like he's hiding details or exaggerating. Like he ain't lying to himself or the audience. He's not doing this as a means to an end. I dunno man this was powerful. I was shocked when I clicked the description and it said he was HOMELESS. I thought for sure after listening to the whole interview that this man was a successful music artist. Damn. At the absolute very least, I hope Mark can extend a little bit of help to this man.... Housing, services, whatever.... And also that he can bring Tre back on. He's so captivating. He deserves to have community and support.
Tre for what it's worth I hope you're in a better place and that I'm sorry this happened to you. Thank you for telling your story so that we all may love our children more and show boys true unconditional love. I hugged my son a little tighter and an extra smile for you. While it doesn't take your pain away I heard you and hope you find peace & many good days. Stay strong and hold your head up high. 💜
What a beautiful storyteller and somehow he kept his gentleness even though he's been so violently abused by his mom. There's truly something special about him. God bless him.

MANN I LOVEEEE HIM..WHAT AM AMAZING SOUL MAN GODBLESS YA BROTHA!!
You can tell that he is a sweet soul. I cannot fathom the evil of his mother abusing her babies to that extent.. horrifying. Its astounding he's still here, I don't think I would be.
Amen Hallelujah Praise God
Well put, exactly.
Out of everyone you’ve ever posted this dude is the most genuine and deserves the help.
I wish him the happiest days he could ever imagine ahead.

Yes please Mark ‼️ ❣️
“I’ve been through it all.. why wouldn’t it end this way” I cry with him.

Our hands are tied in the present-day educational system. 30 years ago, we could really teach. Teaching was a craft in understanding the whole child to be able to individualize and accelerate learning and promote critical thinking...not so anymore.
Excellent. Thnx!!
God Bless you..i feel my calling as a teacher too for the same reason cause teachers like you leave a amazing impression on a kids life forever
Im pretty sure there is many of your students that think about you...my 1st 3rd and 4th teachers i cant forget
I would love to see updates on his story and his music advancements if possible! He seems like such a beautiful souls that was raised in a tragic and merciless environment. I hope he is able to cling onto music and catch a break.
Even with all he been through he has no hate in his soul.. Man i learned alot here. Thank you tre.
He seems so gentle and kind hearted regardless of what he’s been through . God continue to bless him ❤️
When he started crying my heart completely broke. He went through so much at such a young age and the fact that he can even understand why his mom was the way she was shows immense growth but trauma like this is never fully healed. I’m praying for this man and his future 🥺🙏🏽
I cannot fathom the pain those children went through...It's a miracle that he's still here. Its hard to comprehend. I wish I could hug him and erase everything that happened to him.
We can do more than pray. We can make education about abuse mandatory teaching in every school. It's already done in Indiana. Also, NO CHILD should be allowed to be missing from school for a month. That's just insane.
@@24tommyst Absolutely! I substituted for a while and you could see the little ones had something vile going on at home without seeing any bruises. There has to be a way where the school system could intervene. This is horrible. 🥺
@@letakeokuk5446 That must be so frustrating! Poor critters...they depend on adult society to protect them and it's often just not working. I'm hopeful it can be fixed, though. Public schools seem like the best place to fix this issue, imho. It's where 90% of kids are accessible to the community.
UR fine as hell
Jesus mark,this is a special man. I’d love to meet him,hang out with him,have some fun. He deserves the best things in life after what he’s been thru.I wish him nothing but the best.
I think his mom was psychotic
This man's story blew up my mind with pain and anger! Filled with grief
Truly unfathomable..
Dear God. This particular story hit hard. I hope that this man gets the help he needs and he can live free of this hell he grew up in.
As a mom of 4 and grandmother of 11, 😭😭😭 i just want to hug and hold that little boy until the cows come home. Your story makes my heart hurt... ❤️. *hugs*
His story has so many similarities to mine. You don’t know how good to feels to feel truly heard.
I grew up with a abusive mom also 😕 some people shouldn't have kids
@@nqueen7326 girl same, now I’m determined to be the parent for my kids that I needed when I was their age. My past has made me a better person, but it hasn’t been easy. We will thrive ❤️
@@trin8456 🙏
@@trin8456 both of you are amazing women , have a great day!
"As much pain as I have on the outside, on the inside, I've always been looking for a home"
I felt that 💙❤
Poor guy
It's rare that someone going through such trauma would end up having such a gentle empathetic soul!! What a courageous person he is!! Usually people become bitter and the cycle continues on. God bless you !!!
I cannot thank you enough for giving people the chance to tell their stories and reminding them that they're beautiful people no matter what paths they're on in life. You show us that humanity is still alive in this rugged world. Sending you, your beautiful guests, and those reading this all my love, warmth, and the best in life.❤️
They're not beautiful. They're nasty off scouring. They pollute and corrupt, murder and plunder. Nothing beautiful about them.
It’s therapy they get paid for. A win win 👍
Beautiful words! We are all beautiful, imperfect humans! Blessings to you y el mundo! 🌎 ✌❤🙏
@@b.i.g.j.i.p.s.z.41143 were y all imperfect. There's a reason for capital punishment though.
Where can we listen to his music?
I love how this dude tells his story, i feel like there’s so many relatable topics , emotions , , numbness, humbleness. Bless this brotha . I wish you nothing but the best big dawg!
This hit really hard. My sister is adopted and close enough to this man’s age. I’m from the same area, there was room for more kids in my family. I’m not a religious person but for what it’s worth bless this man.
Sometimes I think there could be a better way to match kids who are orphaned or abused with families willing to take more. I sat in foster care and kid institutions, too, and I hate to think about how many there are now.
@@brittaolson6550 I agree. It’s a tragedy that we have so many would be families not being matched with kids. Being on the family side of the process it wasn’t easy, cheap, or without a world of stress for my parents. Not sure taking out those descriptions would make it any better, but it would make it faster, less difficult, and open to more families.
@Nick Apex "there was room for more kids in my family". What a beautiful comment. I'm blown away. 💌
Heartbroken over the amount of pain Tre has endured in his lifetime and I’m inspired by his kind gentle personality and strong faith, despite it all. His story moved me to tears. It reinforced my belief that if we would all extend a bit more compassion, kindness and love to those whose backgrounds are unknown to us we can change this world one person at a time.
Having an abusive childhood is part of the reason I was initially drawn to this channel. Personal experiences have always peaked my interest; so, I understand his pain. When you’re an abuse survivor, you never really heal - kinda like being an alcoholic. It’s a daily struggle. I’m willing to bet my bottom dollar that he has C-PTSD like I do. I miss the relationship my mother and I could have had. But when she passed away, it was like a weight lifted off my shoulders.
I can literally feel his pain through the way he told his story. Bless his heart. 💔
Bless your heart as well!
@@youareabsolutelyright2579 i receive that. Thank you 🙏🏾
Both of my parents died when I was younger and people always say "I'm sorry that happened to you", and my response has always been "I'd rather have parents die young and love me for the short time they were here than them live forever but show me no love" and this story is just one of many reasons why I have felt that way. Keep your head up sir, you have been through a lot but I promise there is enough love on this earth for all of us. We appreciate you.
This one was tough to listen to. Thank you Tre for being open and vulnerable. Thank you Mark for sharing the messages that need to heard. Grateful
I had tears in my eyes from start to finish and I didn't wipe up away until the story was over absolutely incredible
His mother needed serious mental help
This is one of the best ones hands down. You can see there’s a level of grace and clarity in his eyes. That’s true strength. All blessings your way tre
Easily one of my favourite SWU interviews. Had me listening intently all the way through. Always keep that head up Tre, you are so worth it
As a mom I want to hug him so tight and let him get it all out because his story is so heartbreaking. I pray he finds his way and God blesses him abundantly!
He seems like a genuinely beautiful guy. He's had a rough time through absolutely no fault of his own. I wish him all the very best.
I really hope tre keeps coming back, I’d definitely like to hear more about his life
If anybody finds his album I'm copping it. I sense the realness in him, a pure genuine heart who didn't deserve the hand he was dealt. Let's help him
💯
Yas!!
Bump
Coming here to say the same, let's find his music and show him love!
Imagine at 11-12 years old being that numb to accept death. This is absolutely heartbreaking. I hope this man finds some kind of peace.
This man is wise. He's feeling deeply and thinking deeply. I have a lot of respect for you Tre. There is a purpose for you here. Listening to you face your truth gives me hope that I can also respect what I've been through and respect myself to the same level.
These are such sobering interviews. Thank you for bringing such raw people on
I hope we get a part 2 to his story! Watching him and hearing how God protected him over the years is incredible! I wonder what happened to his other siblings and mother!?!? Does anyone know how to find his music?? I like to support him!
Maybe it’s the name on his shirt ?? I’d like to hear it too!
@@TrixiTrixen I've been trying to decipher the word(s) on his shirt but haven't had any luck. 😕
I'm pretty sure his shirt says " ReImerge".....maybe thats his stage name?
@@AlexB-wj6rg thanks! I couldn’t not read that!
@@AlexB-wj6rg that’s why I was wondering!!
Mommy Dearest was a sadistic psychopath. I can’t even imagine this cruelty. You are such a kind man. God truly blessed you.
The difference between a Rich person and a Poor person is how they use their time. Your Future is created by what you do Today not your Tomorrow.
The rich see an economic crisis as a garage sale and also the rich stay rich by investing and diversifying their portfolio with stock, crypto currency investment which is the wisest thing every individual need to do and it is really profitable.
You are right about that do you mind sharing with me how to get intouch with Mrs Amy Robinette. I have little to no knowledge about crypto currencies and I have seen the rise from 100 USD to over 50k USD in the last few years.
Thank you so much I will definitely reach out.
Wow, Is amazing to see people who have also invested with Amy Robinette. I thought am the only one she helped through this rough market.
I've heard about Mrs Amy Robinette but was sceptical to invest due to fear and ignorance, anyway can i verify her service ?
Your a good listener Mark, getting them kick started then letting them take over the conversation is rare. Much appreciated.
Tre you are a strong man to be able to talk about this, please keep telling your story there is kids out there that this is happening to right now that need to hear this , it may help give them the strength to make it out, your mother was sick to do the things she did , gods with you brother you can do anything you want in life theres a reason you slipped death all those times dont forget that.
His mom sounds like she might have had paranoid schizophrenia. Thinking she could read the kids minds and beating them mercilessly. Sounds like psychosis.
Finding a loved one who you really cared about deceased is a feeling I wish on no one. I found my father deceased inside his home last December and experienced the same type of odd feeling he did. From the moment I pulled up to his house, I just knew something bad happened. I immediately felt a dark energy over his house. He died at 56 and left me at age 24.
Rest In Peace Dad.
So young. I'm sorry ❤
Virtual hug, sir. This got to me, and I’m a retired counselor, who’s heard a lot over the years.
I watch alot of the videos,but this one had me about to cry with him.
Tre,You are here for a reason. Don't ever let the devil have you question your existences. I wish you all the best and many blessings🙌🏾
We see you Tre! ( all the way from Africa) truly a testimony....❤️&🕯️
May the angels keep their wings around Tre.
This one got me , the amount of pain he’s endured it’s overwhelming- he seems like he has a gentle soul despite all that life has thrown at him. Tre you have family here, I wish I could hear your music. Don’t give up on music
Music heals the soul
Young man, my heart goes out to u. I feel ur pain bc I too was raised by a demented woman. My mom was naturally born crazy, never drugs or alcohol…Find u a women or therapist that can help u overcome ur traumatic childhood. Peace will come within. Don’t give up. U are loveable, valuable and worth it.
My heart literally aches for this man and the childhood he didn’t have. My childhood wasn’t shit but it also wasn’t this. I hope life is gentler to him.
Tre's story is so heartbreaking, I hope life has treated him better now. I'm a survivor of childhood trama myself. My mom's man used to pull guns on us and as the oldest I was the one screaming and running to call the police. It started when I was in the 3rd grade and continued until I left home at 19. There were times when the gun was handed to me. I will continue to pray for Tre for the rest of my life.
Too many stories like that! Good luck! God bless!
Tre if you’re ever see this just know that I want to thank you for sharing your story brother from the bottom of my heart. The part when you told the story of how you wanted to remember your brother, the day you ran away rather than how things ended up made me cry and I haven’t cried in a long time. I’m grown man around the same age as you and your story will stick with me as I move forward in life.
Just know that you never know what your entire life’s story is, you’re writing it everyday. I never heard your music but just watching you tell your story will remain with me and help get through tough times too especially your determination to at least want to help others in some capacity. I wish you a great life ahead and I pray that God heals your pain and gives you endless blessings. Peace.
Hey TRE, your story does help! I watch every morning and every story becomes part of my recovery!!! and that gives me at least 1 more day of life. I must admit that you have me in tears this morning, your story is 1 of the most painful I have seen on this channel and I have seen pretty much every video mark has uploaded! so please know you are helping and I am very impressed by your strength!!!!!!! if you can keep going then so can I and so can every 1 else that see's this! have a great day, im routing for you!
Hey Gram cracker, wats up man! This one was ruff…huh. God Bless him he’s doing alright. Even with all his story, he seems like he’d be a fun guy to hang out with. He carries himself like a cool guy. As for you GRAMfather clock, one day at a time, man. I hope you have a good day.

So many of us are suffering from the Pain of the past and how we become prisoners of our past. So many people have gone through so much pain and hurt that our lives show the hurt. I've seen death and I've died about three times and I'm still here, my heart goes out to this precious young man. God bless him Lord and keep helping him.
My heart goes out to him. I have been dodging death my entire life up until now. I believe that God saved my life for a bigger purpose.
Sometimes I think we are living in hell.
Hold your head high young man...fight every demon that trys to pull you off your path.
Your an angel and here for a reason.
Love from Toronto Ontario..your story is your legacy.
I'm so sorry your life has been so hard. Please stay close to us and keep us posted.

We are living in hell. Satan Lucifer runs the world! Repent of your sins! Follow the commandments!
@@Okk030 absolutely 👍
Made me happy to hear the Judge was able to see who you were even without someone advocating for you, that your intentions were not malicious, and stood up for you and what was fair.
The fact that Tre is even still walking around after all he has been through means he has a purpose in this world. Thank you for being open enough to share all that you did. I am saying a prayer for you right now. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Grown man who has been through so much but I feel like you can still see that lil boy searching for love in his eyes..TRULY Heartbreaking.
I'd really love to hear his music.
He should make his stage name DDT. Dodging Death Tre.
I’m trying to find his music. Really wanna hear it
@@dqmedia2494 any luck?
This one took me two days to fully get through. I hope his story resonates with someone who needs it. I appreciate the beauty in which he told an incredibly horrific and traumatic childhood story and the pain it created and creates. I wish him self love and peace in his life with all of my heart and soul!!! ✌️xoxo
Mark thanks for listening to Tré… You help so many people by “being there” I pray Tré will get help … Blessings To You Both…✨❤️✨🙏🏽
My heart goes out to this man. I’ve learned a lot from hearing his story and it reminded me of a lot of things that are important to remember. We only see the outside, the reactions and have no idea what traumas a person has been through. I hope that this man will find peace, happiness and success in his life. To have been through so much and survive takes strength and perseverance. Thank you for sharing your story, you are in inspiration to me. 💝
Man! First and foremost, I can’t handle watching any man cry. The pain is so real and raw. I wish peace upon this young man, Keep holding on🙏🏾
This man truly has a gift for telling a story and having people feel his pain. I'm so sorry he went through such a hard life but he is definetly a beautiful soul. I hope he can live the rest of his life in peace and love.
I really felt that when he said "if there is somebody listening take the pain one day at a time" wow these testimonies have me thinking of being a better person on a daily basis we need more love in this cold cruel world
I absolutely need a part 2, it can't end there 😫 😩 😢
"Just try to take the pain one day at a time." Hope he uses his quote in his music. Always interesting, thanks!
The thing he said about your body "giving you morph." is actually a real thing, our bodies and bodies of most animals release opioids to combat injuries & pain. Isn't nature amazing?
I swear I had THEEE WORST toothache once and though I’d die. The pain lasted for over an hour and out of nowhere it mildly subsided, but in the strangest way. I’m not a mommy but I’d equate it to the pain of child birth. Right hand to god..😂
I believe our Creator put this in place for us out of love the same as when the brain dissociates during abuse to protect the mind from the unthinkable
God protect this man and keep him in your light . Tre’s childhood was a living nightmare. Humans can be so vile to their own. Much love Tre✨🌻
Did he say how old he is?
@@terywetherlow7970 He mentioned he was 3-4 years old in 1991 . So that would make him around 33-34 years old right now .
This channel has changed my life! Thank you
Dear Tre I hope u take the time to read all the comments every single one and you allow yourself to feel all the love care and strong warm healing hugs that we all have for you. We are your family from all around the world and we are proud with you and we love you thank you for sharing with us. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
This man has been through so much. I can't imagine how awful his childhood was and then losing his brother like that. I hope you find a way to get past the pain. Keep doing your music. Don't give up. Dang. Nobody should have to go through this much. I pray that you find peace.
Some people go thru so much and still are able to grow to be such strong humans. I salute u Bruh and I’m so glad u was able to tell us your story! Your amazing 🙌🏿💪🏿
I left my parents house at 15. My mother was a beater, a neurotic, a screamer, a Christian. My parents were not getting along. I was hungry all the time. Life was pure hell. I can relate to this story.
Tre is an incredible man… My heart goes out to him and I wish I had an answer for him and so many of these amazing people. I will never understand how a parent, any parent, can hurt their children on purpose in any way. I just don’t get it… Thanks for sharing your story young man and thank you Mark for giving the platform. God bless.
I was abused by my mother and the way he explained the terror and the feeling it literally made me feel the worst dread ever and goosebumps every where. It gets better brother I promise man. I've been on top and I've been at the bottom and once we forgive them for what they did life gets alot better. It took me 20 years to forgive her. I still don't talk to her but just being able to say to myself that I forgave her was enough. Much love from michiga
Much respect Ray. Hold your head high knowing you’re a better human being than most. Forgiveness isn’t typically for the other person anyways, it’s got to help you and you alone or it’s pointless. You’ve got an inspiring vibe about you
@@JME1186 thanks bro it means a bunch 🙏
Where is a link to this man's music? Let's support his passion. He deserves support 💓 Rooting for you, Tre 🎙️🎶
If you find him pls shoot a link. Didn’t find him on IGs SWU pg followers 🤔
That’s it! Where can we find it?
Same. This man is intense and poetic and I bet his music is amazing
I’m also looking for it 😅
anyone able to find it?
Wow I have never ever in my life heard a bone chilling story as this one, it will last with me for a long time. This is really hard core abuse. This man is so amazing, and strong.
I'm speechless! All I can say is I'm so sorry. Stay strong. God Bless You.
I’m speechless w tears in my eyes
There are angels in every walk of life, maybe this man is one of those. Continue to be kind, ur a good man.
Damn this guy been through hell and back. I wish him the best in life with his music and just everything else. You're a tuf dude tre. Keep your head up the best you can. One love dude.
@Chris Walker - Sorry for your struggles as i believe people individually when they say they have had a tough life. I hope you the best in life and the ability to over come your struggles. How ever i don't think blanketing an entire race with anything ever is factual. Careful with all that blaming another person because of their color skin and just assuming they have had it easy because of that.
I've watched many of these amazing story tellers take to the podium to recount diabolical events, also some gritty and dangerous situations and overwhelmingly moving accounts of lifes lived on the edge. Tre's life story and the way he told it was both moving and captivating !
I lost count of how many times I had an overwhelming urge to just hug and hold him. I've never rooted for someone as much as I'm rooting for Tre . Hold in there Tre... there are those of us out here whose life you have touched and who are sending you SO much love and good will. Including me ! Best wishes from England. 😊💕
P.S...I think for what it's worth, it is the title given to his story "Dodging death " that accounts for less views than others ? Had it been titled " A survivor of extreme child abuse " the views would erupt.
Definitely
I feel your pain bro and I’m sorry it happened to you I really am. My father beat me everyday and some days so bad I would lose consciousness. I’m older now and have no relationship with him, life is ok bro keep strong and keep going.
Dearest Tre, I hope you can feel my arms around you, holding onto you for dear life. I’ll hold you until you can feel some of your pain going away. I don’t know you, but I feel nothing but love and hope for you. I’ll be praying for you on my hands and knees to help you. You’ve suffered long enough. Thank you so much for sharing a small part of your story. You matter and I know you’ve made a difference in peoples lives.
Tre thanks for sharing your story, people think happyness is a constant we should achieve but as I've gotten older I've learnt that part of being human is suffering and happiness comes in small amounts, the key is to notice it when it passes through
Tre is an amazing survivor. He has so much insight. Mark, please bring him back. His childhood makes mine look good. There is always someone who has had it tougher. It always hurts more to hear and see someone else get beat than being beat yourself.
Thanks for sharing Tre. I too come from a physically abusive childhood with lots of pain, suffering an always in trouble trying to find an escape. You brought me some peace listening to your story. I still at 35 often feel alone an helpless wondering who can I trust to love me when no one ever even showed me how to love me. I too turned to music for an outlet. God bless you brother. I’m proud of you, I believe in you you’re a beautiful someone. Keep going man. 🤙🏼
Dre….you moved me! I hope and pray that you, an articulate man with a beautiful soul, are able to find peace in this mean world! ❤
God, I feel like I am in the room with Tre, listening to this, it is so genuine. Hopefully, it doesn't take him a lifetime to get past such a horrific, abusive childhood & he can go on to live a good life.
I'm listening to this for the third time in a row. Think it's the only interview I've put on repeat. But I feel like I'm there with him and he's talking to me. And there's just something so genuine about it? It doesn't feel rehearsed or manipulative, or like he's hiding details or exaggerating. Like he ain't lying to himself or the audience. He's not doing this as a means to an end. I dunno man this was powerful. I was shocked when I clicked the description and it said he was HOMELESS. I thought for sure after listening to the whole interview that this man was a successful music artist. Damn. At the absolute very least, I hope Mark can extend a little bit of help to this man.... Housing, services, whatever.... And also that he can bring Tre back on. He's so captivating. He deserves to have community and support.
Tre for what it's worth I hope you're in a better place and that I'm sorry this happened to you. Thank you for telling your story so that we all may love our children more and show boys true unconditional love. I hugged my son a little tighter and an extra smile for you. While it doesn't take your pain away I heard you and hope you find peace & many good days. Stay strong and hold your head up high. 💜
Very sad to hear about his brothers passing. I would go crazy too. This man is very strong emotionally.
Even though he’s been through so much I see such a kind and gentle soul. The world is a better place with him in it.
