You guys are beautiful - you earned a sub because of your authentic selves - I can't be there physically, but I would definitely give you a bro hug if I could - thank you, guys...
Dax actually paid for all the artists to fly to LA to shoot this video and he put them up in hotels, Dax is a different breed and he is a credit to music #respect
Dax had a “Open Verse Contest,” and the winners were chosen, flown out, put up in a hotel, and they all recorded the video then! Each person on here, wrote their own verse. Dax paid for all I listed. He is a genuine man. Fabulous artist!!!❤️🙏🏼🥰💪🏼
And honestly , he’s not the most successful artist . I’m sure he has money. But there are tons of bigger artists that aren’t doing things like this . Sharing art ; and providing an awesome opportunity
that's when I knew that 14 years of what I thought was a good Marriage was over.. My Dad had just died, my brother was sueing Me for My house, My wife decided she wanted to change teams and wants a divorce, and with 3 kids stuck in the middle with me.. i just got done working 4 hours on her car and said if thats what you really want then im happy for you.. but i just lost everything and other than my kids i have nothing and no one and for the first time in my life i truely feel lost and alone.. i could really use just a hug so i feel i am still worth something....she made that hmm huh sound walked out of the garage and shut the door behind her.. so when he says.." I just wanted to cry and be given a hug, and be told everything will be ok " I know exactly what he means.. to my soul
I'm so sorry. I'm different than most, I look at things differently. In my opinion she needed to go because what the higher power has in store for you she wouldn't fit into it. Better things are coming. She was there to give you your children...don't hold it in. Write it down, every feeling....maybe you need to write a book about your situation...I'm sending you positive thoughts your way
@@holeika I'm good now, and I appreciate your empathy.. like I told my friend At the time it wasn't any 1 thing but the fact that everything happened at the same time that really started to overwhelm me at the time But I just took each one and worked my way through it one at a time... Again thank you.. sometimes knowing that anyone cares can mean the world to you and make the difference....
@@johnmartin1569 well Thank You very much.. and I am doing much better as are my kids. Turned out to be a good time to remind me and teach my kids that you don't always get what you want and you don't always end up where you wanted.. but you should still be grateful for what you do have.. and make the best of where you are..
One thing I noticed is that even though it had men and women from all over the world… the feelings and experiences are the same for men… it crosses race, religion and borders.
I just want to say that I see all of you. I see the struggle men hide behind a smile. I believe in all of you and want you all to know that you are loved. You are important and worth much more than what you provide. I think as a human race we have gotten away from so much and loving people for who they are and not what they have to offer is one place as a race we need to get back to.
I was one of those people, I thought that those that I love would be better off without me, but I will admit God save me from those thoughts. Every time I hear the song I just have to weep! Every man in this world needs to hear this song!
As an Army medic veteran, the last 20 years of my life have been shit in society. Given a 52/50 because California wants me disarmed. I’m seen as the bad guy and I love everyone. Every man hurts… and every veteran needs a hug….

You do NEED a hug. It’s all clear in the words you just wrote! You need to cry too! Jesus wept! You are no different. Put those fires out with those tears! These songs are about truth. They speak truth!
The thing that’s great about this song is that it does nothing to discredit women. Ignorance to someone’s feelings , especially if they’re unwilling to share , or conditioned not to, isn’t a sin. So many people now think feminism is “taking men down a peg” or all the incels online who hate women because they can’t get a date they think “they deserve” This is just . “This is our story.

This is it! This is the core of every man no matter where they come from. It's instilled in their dna to be the provider, the strong and unbreakable. How they endure and do their best for their family. And sometimes we forget, that they can't always be the rock. Men needs gentle hug, validations, and appreciation too. this is the story of being a man. And you can't made that up. Because this song will resonate with any men in this world. That's why if there's a person, waking one day and feel like she's a man. Nope, she's an impostor. She doesn't even comprehend what being a real man like.
All a man wants is to provide for the people that we love and when we can't do that it eats us up. I moved from Florida to new mexico to be with a woman i love but when i got here i couldn't get a full time job anywhere.

When my husband finally opened up to me completely the years of mental trauma that he was working silently through blew me away. He was so afraid to open up. Ladies please start supporting your men they are human they struggle with things mentally & emotionally just like us.
heartbreaking yet love seeing men reaction to finally being validated & seen! .. it's sadly such a rare thing! , i'm so grateful for dax(& all these incredibly talented artists) for this masterpiece x
This song is timeless. It will change lives and relationships all across the board, whether it’s a friend, partner or even parent. It will hit everyone a little different.
That's a beautiful sentiment but you have to know, end of the day it won't matter. Men provide and suffer in silence. Breakdown for 5 min but then get back to work. Society depends on yoy
The thing is your intrinsic value comes from being a creation of God. You are fully known and fully loved by a perfect father. Don’t believe women want you to hide. It’s just the opposite actually. We want you to be transparent and vulnerable with us. But strong in the face of hardship. A reliable provider. A protector and a man who brings stability to the home.
You guys earned a sub. The demons in your head that ppl deal with are very real. Thoughts of suicide put you into a deeper depression. It's get to the point that you feel like your drowning and you can't breathe. You lose the will and fight to continue because after all what's the point?
This is what we mean. It’s hard it really is. And some don’t understand the pain and struggle some men go through. Welcome aboard! Appreciate the sub & support.
Writing from Portugal I grew up listening that a man has to be a man. Hold is head and chin up high and be the foundations of a family. Then people started to call that "toxic masculinity" and basically demanding for men to "deconstruct" themselves if they want to keep having any value and respect. To learn to show feelings and emotions that we used to hide away. They say that is the way to find out that we can still be respected even if we let people see us weaker or hurting. THAT IS NOT TRUE. Women can keep saying that, but that is not what happens. Life taught me that regardless of what anybody can say. If we, has a man, let our women see us weak more than a few times, we start seeing the way they look at us changing, we see the respect fading from their eyes followed by the lost of respect to us has their man. Because even if they want to have our back, they want us to be the shoulder for them to lean on. And when that happens it never goes back... When a woman looses respect towards her man, she will never again see him like she did. And that I learned from women through out my life...
Exactly the same as me (DAN) I was never shown support, empathy, or just how to care for someone until I realised and tried myself. In some ways I still don’t show empathy but that’s how I am. But can completely understand how u feel. Keep ya chin up!
You are outside your mind if you think you need to have this convo with your wife. You clearly missed the message presented. Have a strong stable of brothers around you to lean on. When you go home, youre the rock they can depend on. That will never change
They say they want you to open up, to be emotional to them, but once you do you'll see the respect fade from their eyes, and you'll never get that back.
Marriage / partnership is critical. Choose the right one. Choose the one who will hug you in times of darkness and difficulty. We all need one to tell us we are loved , valued and appreciated. Beauty and wealth are temporary.. love is forever.
The Father of Seven between the ages of 20 and 11 was getting busy providing for his family despite the rifts he had with the mother(s). He had no complaints. He MANNED UP! KUDOS BROTHER!!
This is how Americans feel on a daily basis. We’re not prideful or arrogant we just have our own way as American men to help others. We are so tired of fighting but we carry on fighting one to make a country to be proud of. And to show you other men in other countries is hard we understand you but carry on fight and never give up and it’ll be ok maybe not now maybe not tomorrow but it’ll get there. And I need my UK brothers to hear this wake up you’re worthy of love you’re worthy to hear that everything is ok and we American men have your back and that you can accomplish anything you want.
Hope this song becomes a worldwide hit. Every man in this world needs to hear it. This is better than Taylor Swift. I have nothing against Swift but this here is a powerful song. Dax needs to be recognized as a true artist.
I go through those thoughts everyday , trust me it's hard and I've tried a few times to take my own life and that all started at 20 and now I'm 35 but for some reason god keeps me here so I take advantage of that and now I have a goal in life
That’s amazing that you have been strong enough to go through all that, and still be here to tell your story! I’m sure, you would be missed. We don’t give ourselves much credit when it comes to stuff like this.. we are surprisingly tough when we want to be.. welcome!! (DAN)
i honestly think the problem we face as men is not that we don't open up, its that thr women in our lives prove to us that they arent there for us. they prove that when we NEES somebody, they leavr or wait for a time when they can use it against us in vitriolic hatred
17:18 this shit gets me emotional too man...from her perspective we can say that not all women didn't value our emotions.....for all the men out there, stay strong always...
I've listened to this song so many times and I cry every time. I make a point of it to tell my husband how much we appreciate him and that everything will be ok when he feels stressed and down. He is the most manly man that I know and even he can be vulnerable..it's so important that men know that it doesn't take away from their manhood. We are partners in life and I want to support him as much as he supports me.
Injoyed you guys emotional review. I've been listening to the original and megamix numerous times and started watching the reviews as well. This song is so emotional to many and I pray it touches the hearts of men and women.
I love how during the chorus after the 3rd guy sings his verse on the chorus, it's Dax's voice singing the chorus though it's the third soloist still om the screen. It shows me that the sentiment is the same... like the third guy is singing I Dax's voice. That was a nice touch..
It’s never the answer my friend. Just remember it’s everyone around you that have to pick the pieces up and try to accept what’s happened. Stay strong there’s always an ear somewhere. (Dan)
The women singing are the ones that hit me hard. Sometimes, hearing that is all you need to keep going. My wife is disabled with Multiple Sclerosis (MS), so therefore I don't want to talk to her about problems. She has enough on her plate
It's not feeling like you're not enough for anybody or everybody, that makes you want to take your life. It's feeling like you're too much. And that's why you're not enough.
Two years ago this week my Grandson took his life this week we went to His funeral because he lost the battle in his mind that he hid from everyone. He shot himself gun in his mouth. He made a video prior saying he couldnt take it anymore and his outlook was at a dead end. No one realize his pain until the video was seen. It hard to imagine the demons he was dealing with but i can understand the ones i have dealt with in my own life. But it is may faith in Christ that keeps me in Check and gives me my peace. It songs like this that reminds men we are not alone as men and we understand what a man goes through.
You 2 are funny! It's like you're getting a lesson in lyrical rythmn. It's alright. If it takes you longer to get it, keep trying and welcome to the club. 😂
Man you fuckin guys are so fuckin fortunate to not to have ever had those thoughts and had the fortitude to work through it. DAX and this remix along with his original. I personally have been through many hard times trying to get my son and went through some really dark times in the process. Thinking I wouldn’t be able to be with him. BUT I PUSHED THROUGH!!!!! And now me, my son, my wife(not son’s mom) and new baby girl are living a new life that is amazing. All that to say that you guys are so god damn fortune to not be able to fully understand the message of this song. Much love to you it’s for empathizing tho
That is amazing news for you ofcourse! But to say that we don’t fully understand the message is abit of a punch in the face to us. We have had our struggles in life believe me, we haven’t had the best childhood nor had we been raised how children should be raised. That Is why, we can relate so much to this video, we have both suffered depression real bad, (I’m still suffering now) I have 2 kids and married but it’s hard for me everyday. But I try get through it for my family. So please with all that respect in the world, DO NOT assume that we have no clue how they are feeling in this video. But again, your story is incredible wish you all the best in the future (DAN).

The second girl is saying what men want to hear, unfortunately, most women never take the time to try and understand or actually see, or show the appreciation, they just expect the man to continue to unconditionally love them.
i keep on typing this this song being open verse should become the longest song ever written with the most contributing artists .get the message to jelly roll to add a chapter think of the potential.. and i think if we crown our king this is where elvis's should be passed because he demonstrates the example of a fair leader each of his subjects gets to lead through the openness of his example.. and it comes to us at a time when we have the least support and have to join together and rise up to bring a change to a world that must pull together or were lost .. and were at the biggest disadvantage we've ever had .. but this is the time and that's what we have to do.. so we will.
They only hit the tip of the iceberg with this song for a few of us. Im done building lives just for someone to take it from me or ghost me while my dad was on his death bed because it made realize that i need to tell her that i have fallen for her just to never hear from her again. Showing vulnerability as a man is a weakness because it will just be used agaist you and depite what the sterotype is most men cant jump from relationship to another like a lot of women do. If i had a nickle for everytime i was told i would never treat you like your ex did and often times their right their worse. My check has been punched im just waiting for my son to become and successful adult. My heart is dead for this world and im done having my heart ripped from me.
This hits so hard its not funny,as a man you work your ass off all your life,your opinion doesn't seem to matter,and you try to make everything as easy as possible on everyone around you,but when you yourself need help or have something to say its dismissed and nobody cares,you're told to "man up",what they think we been doing all this time,its why mist if us are broken!!!
my father disshonered me when i was newborned (that was in 88) ever sinces then my 3 brothers raised me (beat me up as mutch as they wanted to) it made me .. hard,cruel and distandt.
We completely sympathise with you. We didn’t have a great upbringing either infact, we basically only had each other. At least you have come out stronger and still going!
I think about it often, already planned it out. Sometimes I stand waiting at the lights, look at the vehicles and think about stepping out. But then I think about that poor driver, think about my mom and child and I suppress it. But it's always there like a thorn in my mind, had depression since an early age. I'm extremely self destructive ruined most of my life, though I'm in the home stretch now. I should not have been born, though I know that's an insult to my mom. Some things are not meant to be, if I could swap with a child dying I would. But that's how it is, don't want to stay but I can't leave. And it's like a battle in your mind constantly, it's not all been bad but I hope reincarnation, is not a thing because I don't want to come back.
I can’t begin to imagine, how u have been feeling all these years, I’m suffering with anxiety & depression too, for many years now. I just keep thinking to myself that if I did do anything then I’d be the selfish one, as I’d be gone but my wife & 2 kids would have to live with that, love with me being gone and the way I went from this world. We all suffer differently sometimes it’s easy and other days we are in a dark place with no way out. But u have to remember that we all have someone who will be there for us. Even for a chat. We don’t know each other at all, but they doesn’t mean I wouldn’t help you or anyone out just like I would a close friend. So just remember that u are loved and you would be missed. (It’s me Dan) me and my brother Ben will always be here for a chat. Just remember every day is precious and each day is a great day to be alive.. ❤️
Thanks bro it is what it is, I'm at the half way line now. Doing destructive things to accelerate it, but I've come this far I love video games. And like all video games, kinda want to see that last boss the grim reaper. @@TheBrothersReact
Dear beautiful human, Dear you, just now I read your comment, can relate to you eventhough I'm a woman. Trying my best to cope with life, my Godchild committed suicide 6 years ago, after her children were taken away, after years is sickness and living of foodstamps etc. Her action has given her peace, I'm glad for her. But now after all these years I was on the verge of doiing the same, could not do it for the same reasons as you mentioned. And my babygirl doggy Diva jumped on my lap and didn't stop staring at me until I calmed down. She has been put down a month agobso now I'm lost again.... you are not alone, you are loved (even if you don't know me) I want to give you the biggest hug your heart can handle and warm and happy thoughts for your mind. A stranger from the Netherlands ❤
Gentle Men, I'm so sorry you as a gender, are having to go through this. You may think women don't understand. Unfortunately we know every one of those emotions. I'm 60yrs. Old. I've had a couple times when I held no value and thought everyone would be better off if I just returned to dirt. The song and the voices are incredible and heart wrenching. My advice, do some research. Ever hear the term trophy Wife. Also go back through history. With open eyes and hearts. You will find a lot of similarities between the genders and there feeling's. I think it's harder for a man to express the feelings. Where woman find it harder to get exceptence of the feelings. Ever heard of Mother's Little helper? I truly wish I could hug you all, tell you it's going to be okay because the Lord is your Copilot. Plus only strong carring men can put out a song like that, beautiful and very correct.
Jesus Christ was the most powerful and capable human that ever touched earthly soil. He didn’t weep in secret. He wept openly, so the whole town would see it. In that moment, he gave permission to every man to feel what you feel. And you don’t have to keep it inside.
You guys are beautiful - you earned a sub because of your authentic selves - I can't be there physically, but I would definitely give you a bro hug if I could - thank you, guys...

I fight with this feeling
More often than I care to admit
But since my dad’s passing
I’ve fallen into a evil world of addiction
I’ve been slowly struggling to fix this
This song helps me let go of those feelings

Sadly, with recent events, I'm alienated from even my family, so I went through some tough times where I was really close to going through with it.

The only way to make a few words be so powerful is by speaking truth! Truth doesn’t need to ramble on. Straight to the heart of the matter.
When my husband finally opened up to me completely the years of mental trauma that he was working silently through blew me away. He was so afraid to open up. Ladies please start supporting your men they are human they struggle with things mentally & emotionally just like us.
heartbreaking yet love seeing men reaction to finally being validated & seen! .. it's sadly such a rare thing! , i'm so grateful for dax(& all these incredibly talented artists) for this masterpiece x
Absolutely!!
This song is timeless. It will change lives and relationships all across the board, whether it’s a friend, partner or even parent. It will hit everyone a little different.
Absolutely!
That's a beautiful sentiment but you have to know, end of the day it won't matter. Men provide and suffer in silence. Breakdown for 5 min but then get back to work. Society depends on yoy

The thing is your intrinsic value comes from being a creation of God. You are fully known and fully loved by a perfect father. Don’t believe women want you to hide. It’s just the opposite actually. We want you to be transparent and vulnerable with us. But strong in the face of hardship. A reliable provider. A protector and a man who brings stability to the home.
There are women who will use the feelings that men share with then to hurt the man who shared them
You guys earned a sub. The demons in your head that ppl deal with are very real. Thoughts of suicide put you into a deeper depression. It's get to the point that you feel like your drowning and you can't breathe. You lose the will and fight to continue because after all what's the point?
This is what we mean. It’s hard it really is. And some don’t understand the pain and struggle some men go through. Welcome aboard! Appreciate the sub & support.
Dax and these independent artists are Amazing ❤🎉
This song is just so powerful, diff level. The words are just...😮
I feel fucked up listening to this version... it's too much to swallow and it's real deep. Eats up your heart and spit out your soul dry..... damn
Writing from Portugal
I grew up listening that a man has to be a man. Hold is head and chin up high and be the foundations of a family. Then people started to call that "toxic masculinity" and basically demanding for men to "deconstruct" themselves if they want to keep having any value and respect. To learn to show feelings and emotions that we used to hide away.
They say that is the way to find out that we can still be respected even if we let people see us weaker or hurting.
THAT IS NOT TRUE.
Women can keep saying that, but that is not what happens.
Life taught me that regardless of what anybody can say.
If we, has a man, let our women see us weak more than a few times, we start seeing the way they look at us changing, we see the respect fading from their eyes followed by the lost of respect to us has their man. Because even if they want to have our back, they want us to be the shoulder for them to lean on. And when that happens it never goes back... When a woman looses respect towards her man, she will never again see him like she did.
And that I learned from women through out my life...
You nailed it brother.
Men are an asset bc we suffer in silence & push ahead even in the most trying times.
The way it has been & should be forever.
💯 brother. I've seen it too many times
I resonated with the verses about feeling suicidal and depression the most. I never had a true support system and was taught to just bury and ignore.
Exactly the same as me (DAN) I was never shown support, empathy, or just how to care for someone until I realised and tried myself. In some ways I still don’t show empathy but that’s how I am. But can completely understand how u feel. Keep ya chin up!
I've been listening to Dax for the past three hours. Powerful !
Great reaction, Brothers it's very hard for some to have this conversation with the wife, but it's needed
You are outside your mind if you think you need to have this convo with your wife. You clearly missed the message presented. Have a strong stable of brothers around you to lean on. When you go home, youre the rock they can depend on. That will never change
They say they want you to open up, to be emotional to them, but once you do you'll see the respect fade from their eyes, and you'll never get that back.
Amazing reaction guys...yes this was a powerful song...also showing guys we are not alone in all this...
Yeah exactly, thanks for the support.
This was an Amazing collaboration that all men can relate too. I have 4 sons and I know its not easy.
Marriage / partnership is critical. Choose the right one. Choose the one who will hug you in times of darkness and difficulty. We all need one to tell us we are loved , valued and appreciated. Beauty and wealth are temporary.. love is forever.
Amazing reaction brothers! Well done for 1k and being a TH-cam partner. The only way is up!
Appreciate the support thank you
The Father of Seven between the ages of 20 and 11 was getting busy providing for his family despite the rifts he had with the mother(s). He had no complaints. He MANNED UP! KUDOS BROTHER!!
Great job Brothers!!! What an unbelievable song! ALL the artists were wonderful!!!
This is how Americans feel on a daily basis. We’re not prideful or arrogant we just have our own way as American men to help others. We are so tired of fighting but we carry on fighting one to make a country to be proud of. And to show you other men in other countries is hard we understand you but carry on fight and never give up and it’ll be ok maybe not now maybe not tomorrow but it’ll get there. And I need my UK brothers to hear this wake up you’re worthy of love you’re worthy to hear that everything is ok and we American men have your back and that you can accomplish anything you want.
Hope this song becomes a worldwide hit. Every man in this world needs to hear it. This is better than Taylor Swift. I have nothing against Swift but this here is a powerful song. Dax needs to be recognized as a true artist.
Thank you brothers for sharing a great message with us❤
Thank you for the support and it was a powerful message for sure..
I go through those thoughts everyday , trust me it's hard and I've tried a few times to take my own life and that all started at 20 and now I'm 35 but for some reason god keeps me here so I take advantage of that and now I have a goal in life
That’s amazing that you have been strong enough to go through all that, and still be here to tell your story! I’m sure, you would be missed. We don’t give ourselves much credit when it comes to stuff like this.. we are surprisingly tough when we want to be.. welcome!! (DAN)
@@TheBrothersReact amen brother :)
i honestly think the problem we face as men is not that we don't open up, its that thr women in our lives prove to us that they arent there for us. they prove that when we NEES somebody, they leavr or wait for a time when they can use it against us in vitriolic hatred
17:18 this shit gets me emotional too man...from her perspective we can say that not all women didn't value our emotions.....for all the men out there, stay strong always...
I love when the women sing I cannot listen to this song without crying
Damn this hits hard! I’m a father of 7 too so the guy with 7 kids got me! ❤️🩹
Beautiful reaction guys. ❤ This one was super emotional. 😢
It sure was appreciate the support thankyou
I've listened to this song so many times and I cry every time. I make a point of it to tell my husband how much we appreciate him and that everything will be ok when he feels stressed and down. He is the most manly man that I know and even he can be vulnerable..it's so important that men know that it doesn't take away from their manhood. We are partners in life and I want to support him as much as he supports me.
The TRUTH hurts
This one & Dear Alcohol makes me tear up every time
So real guys ty just subbed ty ty
Thanks and welcome appreciated
Watched a lot of reactions to this and yours is one of the realest I’ve seen appreciate it for all men out there struggling
Appreciate that thank you! We can relate so much to this.
Men and women want the same, just to be heard and to be acknowledged and given a hug. Simples!
Oh I didn´t know that one - what a great reaction! Congrats on becoming YT partners!
Thank you!! 😁
Im glad you watched the remix; it made the song even more powerful!
Injoyed you guys emotional review. I've been listening to the original and megamix numerous times and started watching the reviews as well. This song is so emotional to many and I pray it touches the hearts of men and women.
Thank you.
I love how during the chorus after the 3rd guy sings his verse on the chorus, it's Dax's voice singing the chorus though it's the third soloist still om the screen. It shows me that the sentiment is the same... like the third guy is singing I Dax's voice. That was a nice touch..
Great reaction…this song literally saved my life 😢👍
That’s awesome. And thank you!
Not being good enough is the story of my life. I've had those thoughts many times. I'm just to stubborn to take that route.
It’s never the answer my friend. Just remember it’s everyone around you that have to pick the pieces up and try to accept what’s happened. Stay strong there’s always an ear somewhere. (Dan)
your more then perfecttttttt oxo
The women singing are the ones that hit me hard. Sometimes, hearing that is all you need to keep going.
My wife is disabled with Multiple Sclerosis (MS), so therefore I don't want to talk to her about problems. She has enough on her plate
Ben Becker (second verse) had the best part
It's not feeling like you're not enough for anybody or everybody, that makes you want to take your life. It's feeling like you're too much. And that's why you're not enough.
Even with the pauses and reactions interrupting thar person moment can't help feel that deep emotion
Two years ago this week my Grandson took his life this week we went to His funeral because he lost the battle in his mind that he hid from everyone. He shot himself gun in his mouth.
He made a video prior saying he couldnt take it anymore and his outlook was at a dead end. No one realize his pain until the video was seen.
It hard to imagine the demons he was dealing with but i can understand the ones i have dealt with in my own life. But it is may faith in Christ that keeps me in Check and gives me my peace.
It songs like this that reminds men we are not alone as men and we understand what a man goes through.
Great reaction video guys!
Cheers fella.
You 2 are funny! It's like you're getting a lesson in lyrical rythmn. It's alright. If it takes you longer to get it, keep trying and welcome to the club. 😂
I can assure we arnt getting a “lesson” lol. This was a serious music video, we took everything in. It was brilliant.
As men, we are expected to not show emotion. However, this man can not hide his emotion....
Beautiful!
Man you fuckin guys are so fuckin fortunate to not to have ever had those thoughts and had the fortitude to work through it. DAX and this remix along with his original. I personally have been through many hard times trying to get my son and went through some really dark times in the process. Thinking I wouldn’t be able to be with him. BUT I PUSHED THROUGH!!!!! And now me, my son, my wife(not son’s mom) and new baby girl are living a new life that is amazing. All that to say that you guys are so god damn fortune to not be able to fully understand the message of this song. Much love to you it’s for empathizing tho
That is amazing news for you ofcourse! But to say that we don’t fully understand the message is abit of a punch in the face to us. We have had our struggles in life believe me, we haven’t had the best childhood nor had we been raised how children should be raised. That Is why, we can relate so much to this video, we have both suffered depression real bad, (I’m still suffering now) I have 2 kids and married but it’s hard for me everyday. But I try get through it for my family. So please with all that respect in the world, DO NOT assume that we have no clue how they are feeling in this video. But again, your story is incredible wish you all the best in the future (DAN).
Powerful
Very!

The second girl is saying what men want to hear, unfortunately, most women never take the time to try and understand or actually see, or show the appreciation, they just expect the man to continue to unconditionally love them.
You got a new sub..
Good video boooisss :)
Welcome!! We appreciate the support. Thank you.
@@TheBrothersReact Im a follow up on ur vids.. Keep strong ☺️
Awesome guys, good job…great song to react to!! Luv it
Thank you! It was incredible.
Amazing
Thank you!
i keep on typing this this song being open verse should become the longest song ever written with the most contributing artists .get the message to jelly roll to add a chapter think of the potential.. and i think if we crown our king this is where elvis's should be passed because he demonstrates the example of a fair leader each of his subjects gets to lead through the openness of his example.. and it comes to us at a time when we have the least support and have to join together and rise up to bring a change to a world that must pull together or were lost .. and were at the biggest disadvantage we've ever had .. but this is the time and that's what we have to do.. so we will.
No I don't want to take my life but I asked God why is he keeping me on this Earth because I have nobody
They only hit the tip of the iceberg with this song for a few of us. Im done building lives just for someone to take it from me or ghost me while my dad was on his death bed because it made realize that i need to tell her that i have fallen for her just to never hear from her again. Showing vulnerability as a man is a weakness because it will just be used agaist you and depite what the sterotype is most men cant jump from relationship to another like a lot of women do. If i had a nickle for everytime i was told i would never treat you like your ex did and often times their right their worse. My check has been punched im just waiting for my son to become and successful adult. My heart is dead for this world and im done having my heart ripped from me.
I heard Dax flew everyone out that could make it to do this video.❤
Epic show 13:27 .
subbed
We appreciate that!
This hits so hard its not funny,as a man you work your ass off all your life,your opinion doesn't seem to matter,and you try to make everything as easy as possible on everyone around you,but when you yourself need help or have something to say its dismissed and nobody cares,you're told to "man up",what they think we been doing all this time,its why mist if us are broken!!!
♥️

my father disshonered me when i was newborned (that was in 88) ever sinces then my 3 brothers raised me (beat me up as mutch as they wanted to) it made me .. hard,cruel and distandt.
We completely sympathise with you. We didn’t have a great upbringing either infact, we basically only had each other. At least you have come out stronger and still going!
hey man, where abouts you from? your accent sounds local to me haha, im from wolvo, originally tipton
Yo, we are from stoke mate.
I think about it often, already planned it out. Sometimes I stand waiting at the lights, look at the vehicles and think about stepping out. But then I think about that poor driver, think about my mom and child and I suppress it. But it's always there like a thorn in my mind, had depression since an early age. I'm extremely self destructive ruined most of my life, though I'm in the home stretch now. I should not have been born, though I know that's an insult to my mom. Some things are not meant to be, if I could swap with a child dying I would. But that's how it is, don't want to stay but I can't leave. And it's like a battle in your mind constantly, it's not all been bad but I hope reincarnation, is not a thing because I don't want to come back.
I can’t begin to imagine, how u have been feeling all these years, I’m suffering with anxiety & depression too, for many years now. I just keep thinking to myself that if I did do anything then I’d be the selfish one, as I’d be gone but my wife & 2 kids would have to live with that, love with me being gone and the way I went from this world. We all suffer differently sometimes it’s easy and other days we are in a dark place with no way out. But u have to remember that we all have someone who will be there for us. Even for a chat. We don’t know each other at all, but they doesn’t mean I wouldn’t help you or anyone out just like I would a close friend. So just remember that u are loved and you would be missed. (It’s me Dan) me and my brother Ben will always be here for a chat. Just remember every day is precious and each day is a great day to be alive.. ❤️
Thanks bro it is what it is, I'm at the half way line now. Doing destructive things to accelerate it, but I've come this far I love video games. And like all video games, kinda want to see that last boss the grim reaper. @@TheBrothersReact
Dear beautiful human, Dear you, just now I read your comment, can relate to you eventhough I'm a woman. Trying my best to cope with life, my Godchild committed suicide 6 years ago, after her children were taken away, after years is sickness and living of foodstamps etc. Her action has given her peace, I'm glad for her. But now after all these years I was on the verge of doiing the same, could not do it for the same reasons as you mentioned. And my babygirl doggy Diva jumped on my lap and didn't stop staring at me until I calmed down. She has been put down a month agobso now I'm lost again.... you are not alone, you are loved (even if you don't know me) I want to give you the biggest hug your heart can handle and warm and happy thoughts for your mind. A stranger from the Netherlands ❤
Trust me This is the only Way …. Just to leave when you are worthless so Why fight anymore
Gentle Men, I'm so sorry you as a gender, are having to go through this. You may think women don't understand. Unfortunately we know every one of those emotions. I'm 60yrs. Old. I've had a couple times when I held no value and thought everyone would be better off if I just returned to dirt. The song and the voices are incredible and heart wrenching. My advice, do some research. Ever hear the term trophy Wife. Also go back through history. With open eyes and hearts. You will find a lot of similarities between the genders and there feeling's. I think it's harder for a man to express the feelings. Where woman find it harder to get exceptence of the feelings. Ever heard of Mother's Little helper? I truly wish I could hug you all, tell you it's going to be okay because the Lord is your Copilot. Plus only strong carring men can put out a song like that, beautiful and very correct.
Jesus Christ was the most powerful and capable human that ever touched earthly soil. He didn’t weep in secret. He wept openly, so the whole town would see it. In that moment, he gave permission to every man to feel what you feel. And you don’t have to keep it inside.
Sound like you two are from Stoke??
Yes we are 😃✋
@@TheBrothersReact I just found you. :) I was crying with you watching that. Hits hard. ❤️
It really did! Was incredible. Thank you for the comment & support.
Why you do me like this, Dax! You got me all f'cked up sitting here drinking whiskey in the afternoon with a lump in my throat.
Keep it together bro! U got this.
