Jake (lead singer) has the ability to speak clearly for those who feel lost. He is also a licensed therapist. Tattoos is one of my favorites tracks from them, along with many others. I have tickets for their Baltimore show in May, and may be going to their NYC show as well. They will surely bring a tear to my eye.
I saw them in ohio on may 3rd, I did it as dedication to one of my best friends that committed on march 19th, they played wired for worthless and face 2 face back to back, and I just bawled, I sang every song to the top of my lungs and got to meet Jake after, im so glad he is who he is, I love him, I am planning on seeing them in PA too.
Citizen Solider writes the deepest and most touching songs. They speak of being lost and confused, or hope and second chances, of self love and self hate. Some of the best music created by any artist or group, in any genre. They can bring you to tears like this song or make you want to fight back against your demons and learn to live again.
This is one of my fave bands as someone with adhd autism and cptsd he speaks to my inner wounded child and traumatised adult one that makes me cry is bedroom ceiling ...I've been through years of therapy and my share of being misunderstood it hits the soul
Citizen soldier "I'm not okay ".... I would LOVE to see your reaction to this one! But definitely do more, I love Citizen soldier Also thank you for your videos!
I have cried so much to this song, the song hits so hard because i have asked myself the question so many times. But Iven to it hits hard it also give a lot of comfort ❤️
Yeah I love that song. When I first heard it there are no words to explain what I was feeling when I first heard that song. I call it my suicide song. I sent that song to my best friend and told her that's what I'm feeling when I go through and she told me that she got it I'm going through and how I feel.
I love Citzen Soldier because pretty much every lyric and word are so relatable to myself! "I'm not OK" is great as well as "Never good enough" and "Let me let go"! Pretty much every track they have is very powerful!
Thank you for doing this not many do. It hits hard and cuts deep I listen to this alot it helped me many times I have been on that edge a few times in the past few years but I am healing a little more each day. as always your ride or die forever Eyyyyy Ooooo
First time ive seen your channel, i love this band, and enjoyed your video, you definitely need to do, let it burn then limit in that order, the two together tell a powerful story.
Please please please listen to ICU by citizen soldier! Such a great and powerful song. Oh and bring tissues, it still makes me cry even after listening to it over 3 dozen times.
Wow…just wow…going to step back from MY ledge. Thank you ,Citizen Soldier and Rosalie,for more than you know! Powerful song and reaction! I’m sending love out to ALL of you wondering “would anyone care?”❤️❤️
Definitely up for more Citizen Soldier! Reason to Live is fantastic, ICU is also a good one. Can’t really miss choosing anything they do, and they’re all lyric videos. Incredible band, really special music.
2020 was the year I lost everything. My Job, my apartment, my savings, my freedom, my dreams, goals, plans. On the verge of losing my mind, and being a real pain to my Girlfriend. I was so ready to end it all and relieve her of my burden. Until I heard Would Anyone Care for the very first time. I wouldn't be here without Citizen Soldier
I just want to thank you for listening to this song i remember hearing it for the first time during my darkest night and it stopped me from doing something life changing thank you for playing it and reacting I needed to hear the song again as a reminder
I love Citizen Soldier so much. I first listened to them in Oct 2020 when they were in the middle of just their 3rd album! This was also my first song and it got me hooked. I definitely recommend “I’m not okay” but honestly all their stuff is great
beautiful reaction girl please react to THE TRUTH ABOUT DEPRESSION - SPOKEN WORD (2024) or Demi Lovato - Dancing With The Devil (Official Video) thanks
Makes me think of 2 things. 1st one is a song by the Bee Gees: New York mining disaster 1941. "Or have they given up and all have gone to bed?" (Without looking it up. I think I remember that one clearly.) And a situation where I did fail. Miserably. A very good friend of mine once went anorexic. A formerly "bombshell". And that one day, she stood in our hallway. Looking into the mirror, touching her face and murmuring (so that I was still able to reckognize) "fat face!". Beeing 1,81m tall. Weighting 51kg at that point. Surely a cry for help. And I had no words to answer that. None at all. Any reaction would have been helpful. Even if I had told her: "Bist Du bekloppt? Du hungerst Dich grade zu Tode. Du siehst Scheisse aus!" Even that would have been more helppful than just saying nothing. She later recovered to some 61kg. And started to run marathons: an excuse, for still beeing so "lightweight"? I see truth her. Here is a "must listen to" for you, Rosalie: "piece by piece" by Eivör Palsdottir. I think it fits in perfectly, right here. I already have a ticket to watch her live again on oct.2nd in Hamburg.
So I haven't shared this story with many people. So here it goes... this song really touches me every time I listen to it. Back in the late winter of 2014. I was on a snowboarding trip with a close friend. I was driving, we were in my car. Him and I were on the drive back home from the mountains when we were struck by a drunk driver. Sadly, State Patrol and Emergency First Responders pronounced my friend "D.O.A" or deceased at the scene. I then had to be cut from what was left of my car and I was airlifted my hellcopter to a local Trauma Center Hospital. Still to this day, being in 2024 now. I ask myself questions. "What if I had swerved at last minute" ? "Would he still be here" ?
Rosalie - I shared a song choice with one of your followers that I believe you would appreciate. You may have reacted already, if not, I suggest Standing With You by Guy Sebastian. Keep doing what you do, it is impacting people.
8:35 speaking about "you're irreplaceable", i definitely recommend the song "Irreplaceable by Citizen Soldier" for a uplifting vibe. It's one of my favorites and I listen to it when I feel a little down.
"I would give up everything I have just to feel good enough." That line hits me like a truck every time. It's probably the most relatable line in music for me.
This is song speaks to you and I have struggled with mental health for years I've tried suicide before and I've been in a mental health hospital it's a hard place to be if there is anyone reading this and struggling please reach out to someone I know it's hard and you might think it's weakness but it's not that's the strength you have to be able to reach out all of you stay strong and I promise life will work out for you don't ever give up x
The singer Jake - read about him more- has had an amazing journey. He was in a psychiatric hospital in 2016 after becoming suicidal - and now he fronts a band that helps thousands (millioms maybe) of folk deal with their own mental health and he is also a licensed therapist. All their songs relate to mental health in some way - suicide, depression, addiction etc. they have a few heavier songs but they all hit you in the feels
Thank you so much for reacting to Citizen Soldier! I know the band for a while now, and especially this song is one of my favorites, but also one of the songs that hit me deeply! I've heard this one many times, but I was wondering what you would say about it, and again it hits me deeply! I just got flashbacks from a few years ago where I was someone who was lost and depressed and broken. But those flashbacks were not in a negative way, they actually made me really grateful for the dark experiences, because they made me who I am now. I learned a lot from that dark time and place. But maybe even more importantly, I understand others more deeply when they feel lost. I know how it feels and I want everyone to know: Please don't give up! You are not alone! And I actually don't even want to be too positive here (because I don't think that resonates with where you are now), I just want to sit next to you and be where you are (at your level) as we speak! The pain is real, the suffering is real, I don't want to make you feel that these feelings don't matter. They do, because that's what you feel right now. I want to be a virtual friend to you and sit right next to you and listen to you. I really hope you find your way, and please take it just a little step at a time! We love you! I love you! You are worthy just as you are right now!
2 years ago in cadets we were doing a award sort thing i cant remember exactly(nothing came of it as it was a tryal and didnt realy work out) but as part of it we all had to make posters on a topic of our choice although we had to chose between recycling bullying and mental health. I was 16 and had heard this song a few moths before when i was in a really dark place but managed to hide it from everyone music was my outlet and this song helped alot so i used the lyrics from if your out there still lying awake if your out there still wondering would anyone care would anyone cry if you finaly gave up and turned out the light to the second take back your life at the end of the song. Id asked permission to start my poster at home because 1)i do my best work between 2 and 9 in the morning 2)i wanted to try a new medium in my art because i had a professional artist set that id got for christmas 10 or 11 years prior and dispite all the pencils being basicly finished the paint was untouched and 3) i knew id never have enough time to finish it in cadets and if i got emotional i wasnt there for people to witness. i somehow spent over 34 and a half hours in one week just designing the poster learning techniques and completing the final poster on a A4 sheet of paper(yes i was ment to be asleep but i dont sleep well ever but especially not then so the naps when i got home from my many sessionsof football and training courses kept me going). Id drawn a circle and coming out from the circle was sections of colours of the rainbow fading out into the white of the paper (to represent how you can put on an act and a peer happy and "ok" on the outside)and i made sure the strokes of the brish at the ends were noticeable almost like it feathers out although in places it kina looked like petals(to represent the cracks in your mask and how you blend into the world around you) then inside the circle it had a siluet of a person side on from the cheast up it was coloured in in green pencil (to represent bubble you felt traped in and he green person to represent mental health) and outlined with a dark green sparkly gell pen to contrast the black of the circle(black to representhow dark it felt indise that bubble). There were wee specks of white paint in the black to look like stars representing how when everything feels dark theres still those wee small moments of light that brake through they may be rair or hardly noticed in comparison but theyre still there there siluet of the person has a speech bubble coming out its mouth saying im fine. While inside his head had the shadow of a person in a grey room slumped against a wall head down legs to his chest and arms around his legs(to represent the isolation and feeling of being trapped). At the top it said if your out there still lying awake then under it it had if your out there still wondering then the left of the circle had would anyone care the top right had would anyone cry then curved round the bottom of the circle it said if you finally gave up and turned out the light then as a paragraph under it it had the WORLD would be CHANGED if you left it behind YOU CANT BE REPLACED no tonight is your night you take back your life then under that in big letters it said TAKE BACK YOUR LIFE. I double checked with my detachment commander if the lyrics were ok or too deep for the poster and she said they were fine then on the monday night when i took in my finished poster and chose to help others who were struggling with there posters my DC was crying aswell as my detachment 2IC and one of the other cadets. It also encouraged another cadet to open up to me about their own internal battle and struggles with SH and through working with our instructors we managed to help both cadets. Unfortunately i never got the poster back dispite being promised but it couldn't be helped but thankfully i did take pictures of it so ive still got that to remember it by but the lyrics of the song had a major impact on my whole detachment and opened the floor to the conversion. My DC even listed to the song after everyone had left and called my mum to thsnk me for finding the song because it helped her aswell.
This song brought me to tears when I listen to this song about I lost somebody I love who passed away this breaks my heart a lot what a great reaction Rosalie I feel like it’s tears my heart into pieces 💔😭
Exactly my reaction when I first heard this song. I was on the ledge when I found these guys and they have brought me through quite a journey since. Love them.
When I first heard this song, I was amazed at how lyrics could speak to so many people including me. This was the first song I heard from them and literally cried after listening to it.
I first listened to you on "Hi Ren" and I had heard it before. This time the song is new and I haven't been as hit as hard as this. I struggle with suicidal ideology every day. It will never leave me. I live in a sober house right now and am in treatment. I often feel like a burden and I needed a lot of this today. Thanks again Rosalie for an amazing video and your thoughts. Keep doing this for us and thank you for reaching through the screen and giving me that hug. I needed it
I don't know where you are, but I am sending you a hug. You were meant to hear this song and feel the power of love that Rosalie gives. Wish you the best. - jp
Thank you Joe. If you haven't heard Standing With You by Guy Sebastian, have a listen. What he says is exactly the way I feel about all my fellow humans.
The song itself is already so deep. But your message at the end is so much deeper. Thank you 😭. Today is Sunday... I just lost my aunt Wednesday afternoon. On top of that, completely cutting off my dad after 41 years of emotional neglect and traumas. The depression. The fact that I'm fighting for disability after a traumatic truck accident. The day my life literally flipped upside down in a trash truck. The day I should have died. After years of praying to God to let me go to sleep and not wake. This past year I've wished that I could just walk off that ledge. I wished I could just give up, wave the white flag and jump. My body, my neck... its getting worse. The pain meds, the anti-inflammatory meds, the nerve meds, the hormone treatments... (listen to *She* from Jelly Roll - another powerful song... "it all started with a little pill) killing my organs just to feel alive. To not hurt. To be able to bend over and put socks on. To "feel like im flying" *She*. To finally figuring out who I am, finding the real me... only to be losing her. "I wish I would have met her sooner" *She*. That song is about me through and through. Gawd just to not be here. But i know that im loved. I know that people still care. I can't give up, and that makes it so much worse than just wanting to end the firght. Thank you again for such a powerful message
I have several songs that you should react to. 1. Citizen Soldier: Chasing your ghost. 2. Line so thin: Here I am. 3. Dead by April: Heartbeat Failing. 4. Dead by April: Collapsing orchestral acoustic version. 5. Dead by April: Memory orchestral acoustic.
Hey just wanted to let you know that Imminence dropped their new album “The Black” a few days ago. This is how the album is breaded down. Songs w/MV (maybe or maybe not) 1. Come Hell or Highwater 2. Desolation 3. Heaven Shall Burn 4. Death by a Thousand Cuts 5. Continuum 6. The Black 7. The Call of the Void 8. Come What May 9. Beyond the Pale Instrumental songs 1. Cul-de-Sac 2. L’ appel Du Vide 3. Le Noir
God the first half of the song was my mantra for over ten years before i was hospitalized. almost three year survivor now. the last part is my mantra now. doing my best every day. thank you so much for this.
The beautiful thing about them is that they always only do lyrics video (don't really know about some collabs) so everyone can focus on the lyrics. Because those are the focus, the message this marvelous band is trying to send to everyone struggling and going through hard times. They are a jewel really and since i discovered them 1 year ago i keep following them
When the monsters in my head keep screaming at me telling me I'm worthless, I'm a burden so just do everyone a favour and end it. When every breath is a struggle and every heartbeat hurts. And I constantly stare at myself in the mirror and tell myself to just hold on just a little bit longer and at the same time I'm begging God to just stop my heart from beating. Just to make the pain go away and the voices to stop. Being without my wife by my side is like a piece of my soul has been taken away. I'm stuck in darkness because she holds my light. It just hurts too much. No one would even notice or even care if I was gone. I'm tired of fighting on my own. I'm done, I just can't go on any more.
As a new therapist who incorporates music into my therapy sessions with my clients, citizen soldier and its lead singer who is an LCSW (licensed clinical social worker) are a band that hit hsrd eith my clients and open up doors to a lot of heavy but healing conversations.
The first part of the song could be me speaking, the difference is I don't have anyone in my life to sing the second half. Every day is just a case of waiting for bed time to get another day out of the way. I know that it's a case of WHEN not IF I lose this fight, and it has been a fight for almost 30yrs now with multiple failed attempts to leave this world 😢😢
if you want to listen and watch to something that hits really really deep, i reccomend steven wilsons music video for routine. keep some hankies ready, you gonna need them!
This is the song i played on repeat and bawled my eyes out to for such a long time. It hit so hard of how i felt for the past decade in a relationship where i was required but not wanted. Where i was the one that would be blamed for everything, because i had to do everything and be perfect at it else i get relentless verbal abuse to the point where i completely broke. Until the woman i have literally dreamed about for all those years came back to me and showed me that i was not worthless and that i was loved and wanted. Almost 20 years we were separated and when we finally made our way back together it was like we have never lost contact in the first place.
So glad you got into citizen soldier @rosalie, about time lol but you should have started with weight of the world before this song also face to face is incredible please add that to your list
This reaction is so powerful. Thank you 🫶
Thanks to your music it saved my life 3 years ago stopped me from ending everything thank you it helped me so much
Jake (lead singer) has the ability to speak clearly for those who feel lost. He is also a licensed therapist. Tattoos is one of my favorites tracks from them, along with many others. I have tickets for their Baltimore show in May, and may be going to their NYC show as well. They will surely bring a tear to my eye.
Mine is I'm not ok but tattoos is really good to i just connect more to im not ok
I saw them in ohio on may 3rd, I did it as dedication to one of my best friends that committed on march 19th, they played wired for worthless and face 2 face back to back, and I just bawled, I sang every song to the top of my lungs and got to meet Jake after, im so glad he is who he is, I love him, I am planning on seeing them in PA too.

A couple Citizen Soldier songs I recommend are Reason to Live and I'm Not Ok.
Yeah I love that song. When I first heard it there are no words to explain what I was feeling when I first heard that song. I call it my suicide song. I sent that song to my best friend and told her that's what I'm feeling when I go through and she told me that she got it I'm going through and how I feel.
i'm not okay is another fantastic profound song by them i highly suggest checking it out
I´ve Never felt worthy of love. that line hit me smack in the face.

Wow…just wow…going to step back from MY ledge. Thank you ,Citizen Soldier and Rosalie,for more than you know! Powerful song and reaction! I’m sending love out to ALL of you wondering “would anyone care?”❤️❤️
Definitely up for more Citizen Soldier! Reason to Live is fantastic, ICU is also a good one. Can’t really miss choosing anything they do, and they’re all lyric videos. Incredible band, really special music.
Another good song by them is 'Thank you for hating me' and 'I'm not my past'.. I love all their songs..
"Reason to Live" and "You are enough". I'd love to see you react to both songs from them.
TATTOOS! ❤ Pls comment on their song "Tattoos" ❤
Coming soon :)
Bedroom ceiling has gotten me through rough times. It’s one of my favorites. Would love to see you react to it
2020 was the year I lost everything. My Job, my apartment, my savings, my freedom, my dreams, goals, plans. On the verge of losing my mind, and being a real pain to my Girlfriend. I was so ready to end it all and relieve her of my burden. Until I heard Would Anyone Care for the very first time. I wouldn't be here without Citizen Soldier
I just want to thank you for listening to this song i remember hearing it for the first time during my darkest night and it stopped me from doing something life changing thank you for playing it and reacting I needed to hear the song again as a reminder
I just can't....
I love Citizen Soldier so much. I first listened to them in Oct 2020 when they were in the middle of just their 3rd album!
This was also my first song and it got me hooked.
I definitely recommend “I’m not okay” but honestly all their stuff is great
beautiful reaction girl please
react to THE TRUTH ABOUT DEPRESSION - SPOKEN WORD (2024) or Demi Lovato - Dancing With The Devil (Official Video)
thanks
REACT A "TATOOS" AND "I'M NOT OKAY", THE CITIZEN SOLDIER, PLEASE... BEAUTIFUL REACTION, MORE THIS BAND, MY FAVOURITE BAND !!!
Makes me think of 2 things. 1st one is a song by the Bee Gees: New York mining disaster 1941. "Or have they given up and all have gone to bed?"
(Without looking it up. I think I remember that one clearly.)
And a situation where I did fail. Miserably. A very good friend of mine once went anorexic. A formerly "bombshell". And that one day, she stood in our hallway. Looking into the mirror, touching her face and murmuring (so that I was still able to reckognize) "fat face!". Beeing 1,81m tall. Weighting 51kg at that point. Surely a cry for help. And I had no words to answer that. None at all. Any reaction would have been helpful. Even if I had told her: "Bist Du bekloppt? Du hungerst Dich grade zu Tode. Du siehst Scheisse aus!" Even that would have been more helppful than just saying nothing.
She later recovered to some 61kg. And started to run marathons: an excuse, for still beeing so "lightweight"? I see truth her. Here is a "must listen to" for you, Rosalie: "piece by piece" by Eivör Palsdottir. I think it fits in perfectly, right here. I already have a ticket to watch her live again on oct.2nd in Hamburg.
So I haven't shared this story with many people. So here it goes... this song really touches me every time I listen to it.
Back in the late winter of 2014. I was on a snowboarding trip with a close friend. I was driving, we were in my car. Him and I were on the drive back home from the mountains when we were struck by a drunk driver. Sadly, State Patrol and Emergency First Responders pronounced my friend "D.O.A" or deceased at the scene. I then had to be cut from what was left of my car and I was airlifted my hellcopter to a local Trauma Center Hospital.
Still to this day, being in 2024 now. I ask myself questions. "What if I had swerved at last minute" ? "Would he still be here" ?
Rosalie - I shared a song choice with one of your followers that I believe you would appreciate. You may have reacted already, if not, I suggest Standing With You by Guy Sebastian. Keep doing what you do, it is impacting people.
8:35 speaking about "you're irreplaceable", i definitely recommend the song "Irreplaceable by Citizen Soldier" for a uplifting vibe. It's one of my favorites and I listen to it when I feel a little down.
Would love for you to check out "Talk To a Friend" by Rain City Drive - powerful messaging on mental health and self-care!
"I would give up everything I have just to feel good enough." That line hits me like a truck every time. It's probably the most relatable line in music for me.
This is song speaks to you and I have struggled with mental health for years I've tried suicide before and I've been in a mental health hospital it's a hard place to be if there is anyone reading this and struggling please reach out to someone I know it's hard and you might think it's weakness but it's not that's the strength you have to be able to reach out all of you stay strong and I promise life will work out for you don't ever give up x
A song to consider Tower by Avatar. Delves into the idea of betrayal and manipulation by those we trust
Please review their song 'Bedroom Ceiling '
Fyi, all their videos are lyric videos
The singer Jake - read about him more- has had an amazing journey. He was in a psychiatric hospital in 2016 after becoming suicidal - and now he fronts a band that helps thousands (millioms maybe) of folk deal with their own mental health and he is also a licensed therapist.
All their songs relate to mental health in some way - suicide, depression, addiction etc. they have a few heavier songs but they all hit you in the feels

2 years ago in cadets we were doing a award sort thing i cant remember exactly(nothing came of it as it was a tryal and didnt realy work out) but as part of it we all had to make posters on a topic of our choice although we had to chose between recycling bullying and mental health.

Unfortunately i never got the poster back dispite being promised but it couldn't be helped but thankfully i did take pictures of it so ive still got that to remember it by but the lyrics of the song had a major impact on my whole detachment and opened the floor to the conversion. My DC even listed to the song after everyone had left and called my mum to thsnk me for finding the song because it helped her aswell.
This song brought me to tears when I listen to this song about I lost somebody I love who passed away this breaks my heart a lot what a great reaction Rosalie I feel like it’s tears my heart into pieces 💔😭
Can you please react to Cory Asbury song Kind please Rosalie?
You have to do Tattoos! That song is beautiful in all aspects of the word.
You need to listen to the b sides by Citizen Soldier. It's 5 songs, yes, but my fav is between Life Sentence and Till Death Do Us Part
Check out hand me down by them.if you haven't yet.
Exactly my reaction when I first heard this song. I was on the ledge when I found these guys and they have brought me through quite a journey since. Love them.
It's hard to take back your life when your own family puts you down .. 😢😢😢😢
yes that is true :( sometimes we need to find a new one. surround yourself with friends and the right kind of people
Or when your sons the only one who hasn't thrown you away and that's only because he's 2 and cant
Woww lovely 🎉🎉hearing in cry.great
Oh reminded me my son &dawter to be shined on me❤
When I first heard this song, I was amazed at how lyrics could speak to so many people including me. This was the first song I heard from them and literally cried after listening to it.
I'm not a burden ... Or anything
I first listened to you on "Hi Ren" and I had heard it before. This time the song is new and I haven't been as hit as hard as this. I struggle with suicidal ideology every day. It will never leave me. I live in a sober house right now and am in treatment. I often feel like a burden and I needed a lot of this today. Thanks again Rosalie for an amazing video and your thoughts. Keep doing this for us and thank you for reaching through the screen and giving me that hug. I needed it
I don't know where you are, but I am sending you a hug. You were meant to hear this song and feel the power of love that Rosalie gives. Wish you the best. - jp
@@JohnPaul-hm2ys Thank you JP. Right back at you, kind stranger. The world needs more men like you and thanks for the hug!
Thank you Joe. If you haven't heard Standing With You by Guy Sebastian, have a listen. What he says is exactly the way I feel about all my fellow humans.
@@JohnPaul-hm2ys After I watch my Twins lose this baseball game I will check it out and get back to you
@@TheThreeSixes enjoy the game if you can. There could be a comeback.
The song itself is already so deep. But your message at the end is so much deeper. Thank you 😭. Today is Sunday... I just lost my aunt Wednesday afternoon. On top of that, completely cutting off my dad after 41 years of emotional neglect and traumas. The depression. The fact that I'm fighting for disability after a traumatic truck accident. The day my life literally flipped upside down in a trash truck. The day I should have died. After years of praying to God to let me go to sleep and not wake.
This past year I've wished that I could just walk off that ledge. I wished I could just give up, wave the white flag and jump. My body, my neck... its getting worse. The pain meds, the anti-inflammatory meds, the nerve meds, the hormone treatments... (listen to *She* from Jelly Roll - another powerful song... "it all started with a little pill) killing my organs just to feel alive. To not hurt. To be able to bend over and put socks on. To "feel like im flying" *She*. To finally figuring out who I am, finding the real me... only to be losing her. "I wish I would have met her sooner" *She*. That song is about me through and through.
Gawd just to not be here. But i know that im loved. I know that people still care. I can't give up, and that makes it so much worse than just wanting to end the firght.
Thank you again for such a powerful message
Plz do more of them

God the first half of the song was my mantra for over ten years before i was hospitalized. almost three year survivor now. the last part is my mantra now. doing my best every day. thank you so much for this.
The beautiful thing about them is that they always only do lyrics video (don't really know about some collabs) so everyone can focus on the lyrics. Because those are the focus, the message this marvelous band is trying to send to everyone struggling and going through hard times. They are a jewel really and since i discovered them 1 year ago i keep following them
Oops forgot some. Fire from the sky: Right Now, fire from the gods: Be Free, fire from the gods: End Transmission.
When the monsters in my head keep screaming at me telling me I'm worthless, I'm a burden so just do everyone a favour and end it. When every breath is a struggle and every heartbeat hurts. And I constantly stare at myself in the mirror and tell myself to just hold on just a little bit longer and at the same time I'm begging God to just stop my heart from beating. Just to make the pain go away and the voices to stop.
Being without my wife by my side is like a piece of my soul has been taken away. I'm stuck in darkness because she holds my light. It just hurts too much.
No one would even notice or even care if I was gone. I'm tired of fighting on my own. I'm done, I just can't go on any more.
As a new therapist who incorporates music into my therapy sessions with my clients, citizen soldier and its lead singer who is an LCSW (licensed clinical social worker) are a band that hit hsrd eith my clients and open up doors to a lot of heavy but healing conversations.
I’m Not Okay and Who I Am are two other songs I strongly recommend by them.
Anyone reading this going through a struggle, keep going and stay strong!❤
The first part of the song could be me speaking, the difference is I don't have anyone in my life to sing the second half.
Every day is just a case of waiting for bed time to get another day out of the way. I know that it's a case of WHEN not IF I lose this fight, and it has been a fight for almost 30yrs now with multiple failed attempts to leave this world 😢😢
Not going to lie, started tearing up from the very beginning. Now I need a tissue and it's only been 4 minutes and 10 seconds into the video.
The two songs that always get me are Weight of the world and If i surrender
Deep lyrics. Powerfully emotional vocals. The answer is yes. Jesus Christ and his Father, and our Father, would notice and care.
The next citizen Soldier song you should listen to is bedroom ceiling or heavy the collab they done with SkyDxddy
You need to explore all of citizen soldier music the cover alot of critical relatable topics with in mental health subject
Some of us hurt every single day... music is the only thing that helps us...
if you want to listen and watch to something that hits really really deep, i reccomend steven wilsons music video for routine.
keep some hankies ready, you gonna need them!
This is the song i played on repeat and bawled my eyes out to for such a long time. It hit so hard of how i felt for the past decade in a relationship where i was required but not wanted. Where i was the one that would be blamed for everything, because i had to do everything and be perfect at it else i get relentless verbal abuse to the point where i completely broke. Until the woman i have literally dreamed about for all those years came back to me and showed me that i was not worthless and that i was loved and wanted. Almost 20 years we were separated and when we finally made our way back together it was like we have never lost contact in the first place.
Susan and soldier is an amazing band and that deserve every bit of publicity they get
citizen soldier got me through alot of shit in the military, their music touches peoples souls.
Do an analysis on citizen soldier rock bottom and dax narcissist id like to hear your thoughts

So glad you got into citizen soldier @rosalie, about time lol but you should have started with weight of the world before this song also face to face is incredible please add that to your list
This is the song that turned me on to them a few years ago. Have heard it many times and it still breaks me down each and every time.

Best Inspirational band ever! @CitizenSoldier
The first time I heard this song I immediately started crying it’s how I felt at the time and still do I love their music
