I don't think people who haven't struggled with addiction have any idea how vulnerable and hard it must have been to make this song and share that raw of an emotion with the world. This man is a real one
Rittz, I’m in recovery. I’ve been sober 35 days today. I went to rehab, and I had the whole rehab bumping this song every morning for group! It’s very inspiring to people who are trying to change our lives. This song kept me in the seat I was in, in rehab. I just wanted to thank you
Today I’m 1 year clean from alcohol. This is one of the songs that helped me from rehab to now. I’m truly thankful for artists who tell these stories. Y’all helped me save my life. Real talk.
Still struggling with addiction but still functional. Becoming a heavier burden every day. Had it not been for my daughter I would have killed myself. Praise God for making me a father
I would dead ass freaking cry my eye out if something ever happen to this old man lol , i freaking love rittz hes always snaping and i can relate to some of his songs🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤❤❤❤❤
I just want to say thank you Rittz! I hit 18 months clean this week. Got my gray and silver key tag and 18 month medallion last night. This song has been one of my go to tracks during my recovery!
Twin Lakes is a great recovery center. Been there twice and the last time was 6 months ago. Still doing the damn thing! Hang in there if you're still suffering. There's hope for you!
All I want in life right now is to have a conversation with Rittz about recoveryI literally just got out of a substance abuse class and listened to this and it hit me dead in the heart..
It’s not easy brother. NA can be a good resource, but quite frankly it is not for everyone, especially if you are not a religious or spiritual person. What good can come out of that regardless, however, is finding a lifeline you can depend on to pick up the phone. In the meantime, i’d be happy to help. I’ve got plenty of my own demons.
@@NightRogue77 you are 1000% correct. i am not spiritual at all, and i feel like you kinda have to be to buy into their whole program. there was always that weird disconnect between me and the other NA members because of that i felt. But even so, i honestly don't think i would have been clean if it wasnt for them. When you feel like you can't talk to anyone, a room full of strangers who have the same problem as you, is strangely comforting. they can have their god, or higher power, or whatever they want to call it. i just want a better way to live. and i found it there.
Juicer oh I totally get it man, believe me. I just prefer to cut out the middleman, which in this instance is the program itself. It’s the people that matter, and unless your personality type and/or the way you live your life would benefit greatly from the structure that the program provides, i’ve actually found it to be more of a hindrance than a help. That said, if you can withstand all the fluff (and I always can in the immediate aftermath of something bad happening), that same structure can help you regardless in the early days. Just knowing when and where people who can truly empathize will be from day today is of no insignificant import, and of course making connections with those same people can be the difference between success and failure in the first 30 to 90 days, in my experience. For me personally, those connections are all I need. The absolute key to all of this in my most humble opinion, is being able to talk with people who can truly empathize with everything you say and feel. All the friends and family members in the world, and all their love and support are all well and good, but that Support has a firm ceiling. You cannot truly empathize with another human being unless or until you understand their pain, or at the very least have an extremely strong frame of reference in order to conceive of it truly. And the greatest of intent aside, for the majority of people, when discussing sensitive emotional matters and life-level shit for the purposes of consolation and/or guidance, you are unable to buy In to most anything the other person is saying. How can you console me, and how can you guide me, if you have absolutely no frame of reference for My Pain? I don’t give a damn what anyone says, whether you’re talking to your mother, a preacher, or Jesus Christ himself, you simply cannot do so. There will always be a Hollow-ness to your words in the eyes of the one suffering. How can you help me stop an addiction when you can never understand why I do what I do, and why it’s so difficult to stop no matter how much I want to. Wow what the fuck LOL it’s like I just went into a trance. TL:DR if it works for you, then move heaven and earth to continue doing it. But if you find that it’s not working for you, it could just be your aversion to the system that’s closing you off. Instead of disappearing, find some contacts who understand that not every (and quite frankly more than a few) journey to sobriety goes through the program, and that there are plenty of intelligent people who want to make an honest and 100% effort down the path of sobriety, but just simply cannot do it through the program. Don’t give up.
I wish I could meet him and just ask him how he did it. What point did he hit to be like "this is over". I never seem to hit that point. I wish I could just call dude and get a q&a in for real.
baph omet not at all, if you want a music artist to stay the same that means he isn’t progressing in life as a man. If you want that listen to mainstream garbage.
Just hit a meeting today and ran into an old family friend he made me think of my mom who passed away two years ago brought a tear to my eye love you mom miss you I'm staying clean and sober for you 😘💯💯
My mother passed in 2018 an man its been so hard.. im doing the best I can an im recovering from 2nd stroke (1st was unknown) and have heart failure now too.. have been a addict for over 20 years an ready to try an really change things!!! You can do it if your truly ready David👍🏻
Rittz is in the TOP 3 best rap artists of all time. The stories he shares with us all, are all to relatable. The realness ,the honesty, the way he can put a song together and just make you think while bobbin your head. Rittz or anyone if you're struggling ,keep going. Push hard to get where you want.
This is beautiful. Letting go of the past is something that is key in recovery. Were too hard on ourselves. The hurt and pain that grew deep roots into your soul is haunting. But there is a light and healing that only Jesus can do. Its a painful and messy process but He woll see us through it.
Im literally goin through withdrawals at this very moment and struggling tryin to stay motivated to keep goin then i find this song...thank you rittz! I think you gave me the push i needed
All I'm saying is when I went threw withdraws when I went clean 5 years I sure as fuck wasn't trying to type shit out I was puking and shittin my guts up in county waiting transfer to state pen so with that being said what ever you're on isn't that bad of addiction yet so here I am two months after you wrote your comment to say you got this only the weak relapse you was on here trying to do right so you got it your addiction is that bad yet not trying to sound like a dick just stating facts
@Vincent H. said one of the best. Old enough to have relatable experiences and actually have a understanding of the song. Also music is subjective, so how does my personal opinion relate to my age?
I got clean almost 6 months ago from opioids. I'm 24 and had two back surgeries and two hand surgeries and was literally dying as I took more and more and my pain constantly got worse but now that I'm clean I can truly see that those 6 years I wasn't myself and the fog has finally settled and I'm finally myself again. I love you Rittz and I'm so proud of you and happy for you. Anybody out there struggling just know YOU CAN DO IT! I thought I knew everything and once I trusted in myself and the Lord again I knew I could overcome ANYTHING and you can too! MUCH LOVE
Honestly, that's the moment I realized that Rittz just made me realized what has happened to me. We fall out of love with life and in love with chemicals.
Click the link below to view a song i mentioned RITTZ. Seeking for people to support the movement here’s my TH-cam link it will be greatly appreciated if you share and subscribe keep doing ya thing rittz th-cam.com/video/911td7AdRJU/w-d-xo.html
Alcohol ha🎉s its grip. Been listening to this song since the day you released it. Tried getting help but have been told that I am fine 4 times now. Definitely not fine. I live separate from my kids and everyday it hurts!!! I don't know how to get someone to help.
It doesn't matter what this man raps about he makes anything good he is so underrated and it kills me because he is probably one of the best lyricist in the game
3 years sober from meth and alcohol... I never forget when i was fighting withdrawals and was done with my life. Keep fighting out there, the beginning is the hardest thing I've ever done, but the life I live today is so much freer. Much love to those still fighting the hard fight!
🙏 "praying to the light on the fire alarm" is one of the realest lines ever in life & in music!!! I been where u been Rittz, one day at a time my man!!
I attended Twin Lakes Recovery Center in May 2019 & got out June 9th. Best worst days of my life! It sucked but, I’m SO grateful for Twin Lakes. Sober almost 8 months now! This song hits hard cause it’s about recovery & the place that I got sober at. & everyone that is in recovery also, KEEP PUSHING FORWARD. We can do this TOGETHER! I am here if you need someone to talk to. Please reach out if you need any help! I love each & every one of you! & BRAVO Rittz. Amazing song that touches many people’s hearts!
THIS SONG SPEAKS TO ME ON SO MANY F****** levels!!! I know Rittz will never see this comment, but thank you! I’m in recovery right now!! Drugs take your life away, and make it so hard to get back. It leaves fractures in cracks that you can never fill. All you can do is keep moving on much love to Ritz thanks for this amazing, moving song
What makes this more powerful is the music video was shot in a hotel roomand that goes to tell you he's telling you if you don't get help your get to be living in a hotel.and he's also reflecting as an artist what he did to his career and how much damage is drug abuse that is caused him over the years deep. That's why I love Rittz
I, myself have never struggled with addiction, but I have many friends and family members that’s have. It’s a terrible thing to watch someone you care about destroy themselves and there’s nothing you can do because they’re fighting their own demons, but once someone decides to seek help it is such a beautiful thing to witness. You get to see the life restored in their eyes, when before all you could see was darkness and hopelessness. If you’re struggling and finally make the choice to seek help, PLEASE do. Someone in your life is just waiting to see you happy again.
I’m in active addiction and I pray every single day that I’ll be ready to go get clean and sober again. If it wasn’t for Rittz, I probably would have ended my life already. Him and his music keeps me going every single day. I just wish I could find the way out before it’s to late. Any positive feedback or anything from anyone would really help me out a lot. Could use some advice.
It took me 3 times going to rehab, kicked a pill/coke addiction. I decided to only use cannibis and have an occasional drink when i got out. The counselors told me it would never work and i would be back, but 7 years later ive left everything but cannibis alone. My point is, there are no right or wrong answers, but when you decide that whatever youre doing is no longer worth it, you will find a way. Stay strong, and if you ever need any one to talk to hit me up on facebook.com/HollywoodAliaz
@@brandonsmith8631 you're right on that one the only thing I can say is be positive everyday be around people who are positive look yourself in the mirror everyday and tell yourself every morning when you wake up it's possible this is only you who can change that which is wrong in your life listen to motivation like this song motivate yourself to do anything you wish to do in your life
Been taking pills for over 25 years Lost a lot a friends to heroin deaths. Been sober for 2 1/2 months and ain't going back..main reason is to proof I'm not weak... good luck to you my friend.
Natural drugs to help ween you off helped me a lot. Like Kratom for opiod/alcohol addiction, kava for stimulant addiction. If you want more info feel free to reply
I started doing pills at 16 a few years later heroin, a few years after that meth I'm 35 now I've spent more of my life high than I have sober. I am just starting being sober, but let me tell you this........ I've been booked into jails over 40 times my driver liscence has been suspended 32 times I've been married and divorced I have rebuilt my life from rock bottom more times than I can count. I have 2 good friends left everyone has died, and I still continued to use. And like you I was looking every where for the answers for help and it never came. Eventually I just got tired of it all you have to look with in yourself when your ready to quit you'll quit
I’m less then a month away from three years clean, and when I was less then a year clean I almost gave up.. for some weird reason on the way to the doorman’s house, this song came on in my headphones. Rittz you saved my life brother, and you did that with your music and your hardships and struggles man. Thank you so much, my kids, my girl, and I will forever be grateful for you, your story, and your music!
One thing I’ve always appreciated and respected about those who never give up and are willing to accept themselves to change. Rittz keep on going hard bro; it’s all up hill from here man.
Hello, my name is Milo Izianopolous I’m a recovering heroin addict. September 8th, 2019 I made the decision to change my life for the better and kick opiates, cocaine, alcohol & cigarettes ... That was 90 days ago today and my only regret is not making that choice sooner ! #LifeAfterAddiction is #GLORIOUS This song touched me deep in my soul ! It’s exactly what I needed to hear today, Thanx Rittz ! Sincerely, A new fan
Man.. so awesome. I dont know you but I want to say I am proud of you. I am 6 yrs clean and it does get easier bro.. keep it up. So fucking awesome man. Keep going.. see what you can accomplish!!! Hell yah
I'm staying in a sober living house right now after serving 6years in prison and I needed this song. Rittz always has the realest music and I thought I couldn't relate to him anymore because I'm sober. Then... this. Thankyou, rittz.
Bro Rittz...thank you for this upload! Alot of us walking that path right now and your music helps us get thru this! Salute to you and all the real ones in the comments! 🙌🏽💯🔥🔥🔥
Good for you Rittz! We need music like this for people cuz other rapper talking about doing drugs not selling em... I been through many addictions, heroin, percs, meth, alcohol.... Music is a good tool for people and helps them relate if the ones around em arent helping. Im clean now, anyone can do it you just gotta really want it!!!! We all came from different places and ended up at 1 spot.... Rock bottom. Work your way up from it and you will feel like king of the world i did it and you can too!!!!💯
As a recovering addict this song hits me deep. I remember the day I walked into rehab in 2016 and Rittz just made it more surreal with this song. I can proudly say its been 7 years and im still killing the sobriety game. Ill always be a fan Rittz!!
Rittz be goin crazy! Dope song! Never heard it tho until today I heard it at a recovery center that I work at. I've been sober from drugs and alcohol for over a year now after being an addict for 20+yrs. Now I just want to help others overcome addiction. Whoever reads this just know that you are worth it! I love you! ❤
Fireeee. I'm 7 months clean an this really hit home. If your battling addiction, I promise you got this. Be strong an put a end to the lifestyle of going nowhere. I'm here for each an every single one of yall. Its 2019 sobriety is what's up. Let's rise up an be a generation that did it.
@@mylesscott2454 percs was harder to quit for me that heroin... Been clean for over 2 years now, done my time in prison too just let your brother know you love him and that he is a soldier and can be a good person when he gets out. People who forget that end up turning back to the game... But its not an inevitability if you tell them you love them and remind them of passed mistakes while also making them motivated and knowing that they can move on if they really want it!!!! The only thing that stopped me from leaving the game was what other people would think.... If they the ones who influencing bad and not being a good person f*ck what they think! Show me your friends n ill show u your future.... Be there for your fam they can do it!!!
@@larrystevens7550 I never did heroin only pain pills um rittz is my favorite rapper and inspiration to me I seen him in concert he did so good freestyle respect to the crowd
I didn't go to recovery, but this song reminds me a lot from when I committed myself. I'm a Navy vet with PTSD and other mental health issues. I learned a lot and got the help I needed. Please, please, please! If you're reading this and you have issues with drugs, alcohol, or mental health go get help. There's nothing to be ashamed of. Quite the opposite, you feel proud of yourself afterwards for getting help and better your life and even those around you.
Thank you Rittz for this song its helped me alot with my journey to get clean. I found it near the end of my addiction and it was what i listened to on the comedown every time i was awake just to remind me if i cant do this itll ruin my life and i can get clean and life is much better now not running rhe streets and doing drugs.
I’ve been home a month from detox and php in south Florida And I want to say I’m proud of you for taking this step regardless of your a alcoholic or drug addict your a addict and you have the tools and support from your family #CNT #PUTACROWNONIT
This isn't even the kind of music I enjoy listening to and I still had to have played this a half dozen times since you released it half hour ago just because of how much I can relate to you in this track and how it really effected me emotionally. I'm so grateful to be clean, sober, and alive today. I'm proud of you for taking these steps to get sober man, it's not easy but you're a strong soul and will definitely overcome your addiction(s) if you keep a positive attitude and find solutions instead of excuses. You're an inspiration Ritz, never forget that!!! 🤜🏼🤛🏻
Holy shit man, this made me tear up. RAW. I'm so proud of you and how far you've come and how much change I've seen! Such an inspiration for other's out there struggling.
This song really hits home Rittz your words are true motivation it doesn’t matter what type of addiction you have anybody can break the chins keep up the music
Two months ago I moved out of the sober living house that saved my life in just under two years. Still sober after 1 year and 8 mother fuckin months!! Got my son back, my own spot, my own ride, living happy. Thank you Rittz.
Thanks for helping save my life rittz keep doin your thizzle...love ya bro you got my word wherever the next closest show in the Oklahoma area is you have my word I'll be there
This💔💔💔 this means so much.. Ive struggled for so long.. Grew up in recovery.. But my recovery has been on and off. Since 05.. But i know its my choice.. Its tough.. I love this tho.. Its so raw.. So real.. Sometimes i think i cant.. Im not willing.. But as im buzzed i listen to music bout recovery.. I struggle with alcohol. Ive struggled with dope.. But we replace one with another... Alcohol bein legal makes. It so easy to justify.. But.. The struggle us so real..
Wow.. Tears shedded hard.. Been in those shoes. Never been to rehab.. But ive been in the same position aside from that. Anyone listening. Please get help. Its not ever too late i am 5 years clean from heroin. You are a wonderful human being regardless of mistakes youve made.. Keep your head up keep fighting. Realest shit youve ever put out rittz dog.
When that chorus hits....that’s the feeling music is supposed to give you
that's real shit..these mainstream pissants need to put on a set of headphones and take fucking NOTES.
Fuckin a bro couldn’t have said it better🙏🏼💯🥃 some real shit real life lyrics🔥
amen !
You never lied ...gives me chills
Just did forest house twins lakes next don't drink no more but have plenty other demons
I don't think people who haven't struggled with addiction have any idea how vulnerable and hard it must have been to make this song and share that raw of an emotion with the world. This man is a real one
This song made me cry from the first line, immediately brought me back to my time in treatment facilities
Who else cried? This shit is gonna save somebody’s life!

True but his emotion always was fire
I agree, I don’t really like the auto tune stuff but that being said even the Rittz songs with it I still enjoy.

Met Rittz twice and he’s so genuine. Great to see him thriving on his own and enjoying a sober happy life.
I wish I could meet him and just ask him how he did it. What point did he hit to be like "this is over". I never seem to hit that point. I wish I could just call dude and get a q&a in for real.
Can’t wait for this shit to drop. Proud of Rittz and how far he’s come.
Same dude

Well said, pretty much as soon as I heard him years ago I've been a fan and he has never disappointed me.
Seems like hes gonna backwards since dropping from strange

I'm 24 and had two back surgeries and two hand surgeries and was literally dying as I took more and more and my pain constantly got worse but now that I'm clean I can truly see that those 6 years I wasn't myself and the fog has finally settled and I'm finally myself again. I love you Rittz and I'm so proud of you and happy for you. Anybody out there struggling just know YOU CAN DO IT! I thought I knew everything and once I trusted in myself and the Lord again I knew I could overcome ANYTHING and you can too! MUCH LOVE
I love you Rittz. See you in Utah in October!
"I think I fell out of love with living"
God damn the feels, hit way to close to home
Honestly, that's the moment I realized that Rittz just made me realized what has happened to me. We fall out of love with life and in love with chemicals.
🤮
Rittz gets you in your feels. Always spittin a message, that's why he's my favorite, hands down.

Alcohol ha🎉s its grip. Been listening to this song since the day you released it. Tried getting help but have been told that I am fine 4 times now. Definitely not fine. I live separate from my kids and everyday it hurts!!! I don't know how to get someone to help.
It doesn't matter what this man raps about he makes anything good he is so underrated and it kills me because he is probably one of the best lyricist in the game
I never dealt with addiction
but this song can translate to
any type of addiction or weaknesses
we have or had.
Keep fighting the good fight. !✊🏽
How has this video not hit 1mil views. Ohhh thats right the real goes unnoticed.
This is it. Yes. New favorite
3 years sober from meth and alcohol... I never forget when i was fighting withdrawals and was done with my life. Keep fighting out there, the beginning is the hardest thing I've ever done, but the life I live today is so much freer.
Much love to those still fighting the hard fight!
That's really amazing. How long did "the beginning" last for you?
I battled addiction myself and it was one of the best decisions I had ever made to get clean
Thanks 😊 man.
Been supporting rittz for a long time this is a beautiful moment in his career
Got that "im only human" flow, i love it 💯🔥
Was gonna type the same thing lol
@@Espistrange that flow is sick lol one of the most underrated rappers of all time along with tech and yelawolf
Definitely
@@davidmcfallsjr.283 Agreed
That exactly what I was thinking. The reply value on this song is sky high
One of the realest songs ever written.
Been rocking with ya for a long time I feel this song to my core
Much love
Recovery is possible and looks different on all of us keep it going
🙏 "praying to the light on the fire alarm" is one of the realest lines ever in life & in music!!! I been where u been Rittz, one day at a time my man!!
When a song make you feel emotional that's when an artist has my attention. I definitely felt this one!
So deep, this is why Rittz is such a legend.

4yrs clean from heroin my twin lakes was Florida center for recovery. Keep the good work up and take it one day at a time
This hits home brother. Stay strong. Stay positive.
I'm in recovery now I'm here to reflect by choice to much to lose so far 23 days clean God please help get through this hard time
Who cares?? Nobody!!!
@@johndoe815.clearly you do enough to comment dumb fuck.
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change.
Courage to change the things I can.
And wisdom to know the difference
Amen
Amen
Keep coming back, it works if you work it so work it you're worth it.
I've had this on repeat for over an hour.
God bless.it man god bless it
Samzies
Same realize I'ma loose my wife.. I'm really ready
Iv had it on repeat for a month lol
I attended Twin Lakes Recovery Center in May 2019 & got out June 9th. Best worst days of my life! It sucked but, I’m SO grateful for Twin Lakes. Sober almost 8 months now! This song hits hard cause it’s about recovery & the place that I got sober at. & everyone that is in recovery also, KEEP PUSHING FORWARD. We can do this TOGETHER! I am here if you need someone to talk to. Please reach out if you need any help! I love each & every one of you! & BRAVO Rittz. Amazing song that touches many people’s hearts!
Please help I'm ready for recovery since 2015 the complex in 2015
This is it. I love this joint. Love this dude
Can't wait for his album🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thats rittz,he puts the heart in everything he does,one of my favorites artist ever, 😌😌😌
THIS SONG SPEAKS TO ME ON SO MANY F****** levels!!! I know Rittz will never see this comment, but thank you! I’m in recovery right now!! Drugs take your life away, and make it so hard to get back. It leaves fractures in cracks that you can never fill. All you can do is keep moving on much love to Ritz thanks for this amazing, moving song
What makes this more powerful is the music video was shot in a hotel roomand that goes to tell you he's telling you if you don't get help your get to be living in a hotel.and he's also reflecting as an artist what he did to his career and how much damage is drug abuse that is caused him over the years deep. That's why I love Rittz
I, myself have never struggled with addiction, but I have many friends and family members that’s have. It’s a terrible thing to watch someone you care about destroy themselves and there’s nothing you can do because they’re fighting their own demons, but once someone decides to seek help it is such a beautiful thing to witness. You get to see the life restored in their eyes, when before all you could see was darkness and hopelessness. If you’re struggling and finally make the choice to seek help, PLEASE do. Someone in your life is just waiting to see you happy again.
I’m in active addiction and I pray every single day that I’ll be ready to go get clean and sober again. If it wasn’t for Rittz, I probably would have ended my life already. Him and his music keeps me going every single day. I just wish I could find the way out before it’s to late. Any positive feedback or anything from anyone would really help me out a lot. Could use some advice.
It took me 3 times going to rehab, kicked a pill/coke addiction. I decided to only use cannibis and have an occasional drink when i got out. The counselors told me it would never work and i would be back, but 7 years later ive left everything but cannibis alone. My point is, there are no right or wrong answers, but when you decide that whatever youre doing is no longer worth it, you will find a way. Stay strong, and if you ever need any one to talk to hit me up on facebook.com/HollywoodAliaz
@@brandonsmith8631 you're right on that one the only thing I can say is be positive everyday be around people who are positive look yourself in the mirror everyday and tell yourself every morning when you wake up it's possible this is only you who can change that which is wrong in your life listen to motivation like this song motivate yourself to do anything you wish to do in your life
Been taking pills for over 25 years
Lost a lot a friends to heroin deaths.
Been sober for 2 1/2 months and ain't going back..main reason is to proof I'm not weak... good luck to you my friend.
Natural drugs to help ween you off helped me a lot. Like Kratom for opiod/alcohol addiction, kava for stimulant addiction. If you want more info feel free to reply
I started doing pills at 16 a few years later heroin, a few years after that meth I'm 35 now I've spent more of my life high than I have sober. I am just starting being sober, but let me tell you this........ I've been booked into jails over 40 times my driver liscence has been suspended 32 times I've been married and divorced I have rebuilt my life from rock bottom more times than I can count. I have 2 good friends left everyone has died, and I still continued to use. And like you I was looking every where for the answers for help and it never came. Eventually I just got tired of it all you have to look with in yourself when your ready to quit you'll quit
Rittz going into recovery. He's gonna unleash greatness without being on drugs
I’m less then a month away from three years clean, and when I was less then a year clean I almost gave up.. for some weird reason on the way to the doorman’s house, this song came on in my headphones. Rittz you saved my life brother, and you did that with your music and your hardships and struggles man. Thank you so much, my kids, my girl, and I will forever be grateful for you, your story, and your music!
One thing I’ve always appreciated and respected about those who never give up and are willing to accept themselves to change. Rittz keep on going hard bro; it’s all up hill from here man.
Hello, my name is Milo Izianopolous I’m a recovering heroin addict. September 8th, 2019 I made the decision to change my life for the better and kick opiates, cocaine, alcohol & cigarettes ... That was 90 days ago today and my only regret is not making that choice sooner ! #LifeAfterAddiction is #GLORIOUS
This song touched me deep in my soul ! It’s exactly what I needed to hear today, Thanx Rittz !
Sincerely,
A new fan
Man.. so awesome. I dont know you but I want to say I am proud of you. I am 6 yrs clean and it does get easier bro.. keep it up. So fucking awesome man. Keep going.. see what you can accomplish!!! Hell yah
Good on you. Its nice to have the power to refuse the offer of the things that put me in hospital a few times.
Clean is a high itself.
God is with homie
You*
Godspeed brother ✊
There's not another song I've heard that hits rehab on the head like this one
Powerful, love ya Rittz.
I'm staying in a sober living house right now after serving 6years in prison and I needed this song. Rittz always has the realest music and I thought I couldn't relate to him anymore because I'm sober. Then... this. Thankyou, rittz.
I love this so much
Bro Rittz...thank you for this upload! Alot of us walking that path right now and your music helps us get thru this! Salute to you and all the real ones in the comments! 🙌🏽💯🔥🔥🔥
Rittz, this is dope, I am on day 22 sober and this hits home. Big ups to you and getting healthy
Vince Leckie congrats on the sobriety man, one day at a time!
Thanks homie!!!
Stay Strong you are not alone im with you :)
Congrats brother!!!! Keep it going!!!!
Thanks everyone, means a lot to have support, it's been rough but one day at a time!!
Good for you Rittz! We need music like this for people cuz other rapper talking about doing drugs not selling em... I been through many addictions, heroin, percs, meth, alcohol.... Music is a good tool for people and helps them relate if the ones around em arent helping. Im clean now, anyone can do it you just gotta really want it!!!! We all came from different places and ended up at 1 spot.... Rock bottom. Work your way up from it and you will feel like king of the world i did it and you can too!!!!💯
Larry Stevens congrats on getting clean. It’s deff not a easy road. -Addiction-
@@LuLu-ge9zf 👍💪Happy Holidays 💯🌝🎅🎅🎄🎁
As a recovering addict this song hits me deep. I remember the day I walked into rehab in 2016 and Rittz just made it more surreal with this song. I can proudly say its been 7 years and im still killing the sobriety game. Ill always be a fan Rittz!!
Top song in life right now!!
Rittz be goin crazy! Dope song! Never heard it tho until today I heard it at a recovery center that I work at. I've been sober from drugs and alcohol for over a year now after being an addict for 20+yrs. Now I just want to help others overcome addiction. Whoever reads this just know that you are worth it! I love you! ❤
Day 20 of quitting heroin and methadone cold turkey was on it for a decade. The withdrawals are vicious but I'm still here
You can do it. I believe in you. ❤
Fireeee. I'm 7 months clean an this really hit home. If your battling addiction, I promise you got this. Be strong an put a end to the lifestyle of going nowhere. I'm here for each an every single one of yall. Its 2019 sobriety is what's up. Let's rise up an be a generation that did it.
Hopefully this song hits those prison tablets. Wishing I could send this to my brother. You never disappoint me. ❤️ ❤️
This song is sad but true I can relate I got 4 years clean off pain meds I like this song and cecilla is your beautiful
@@mylesscott2454 percs was harder to quit for me that heroin... Been clean for over 2 years now, done my time in prison too just let your brother know you love him and that he is a soldier and can be a good person when he gets out. People who forget that end up turning back to the game... But its not an inevitability if you tell them you love them and remind them of passed mistakes while also making them motivated and knowing that they can move on if they really want it!!!! The only thing that stopped me from leaving the game was what other people would think.... If they the ones who influencing bad and not being a good person f*ck what they think! Show me your friends n ill show u your future.... Be there for your fam they can do it!!!
@@larrystevens7550 I never did heroin only pain pills um rittz is my favorite rapper and inspiration to me I seen him in concert he did so good freestyle respect to the crowd
@@larrystevens7550 I won't ever touch a drug again I do like my weed sativa though it's legal I got a card and I live in Oregon
@@mylesscott2454 Keep the love n respect up 👍 I know people up in Oregon too its beautiful 💪👍
Never been through this but for you to put this out there and be vulnerable and share this will help someone and save a life. I salute you
I didn't go to recovery, but this song reminds me a lot from when I committed myself. I'm a Navy vet with PTSD and other mental health issues. I learned a lot and got the help I needed. Please, please, please! If you're reading this and you have issues with drugs, alcohol, or mental health go get help. There's nothing to be ashamed of. Quite the opposite, you feel proud of yourself afterwards for getting help and better your life and even those around you.
You know a song is good when it makes you think of at least one person who NEEDS to hear it.
Andrew Veale some real words spoken bro💯
Frfr. Doing that right now
This dude is so dope and underrated smh. Been wit Rittz from the Jump!
Facts
Same bruh he slaps🔥
Damn rittz keeps getting better every song he really puts it all into his music for us
Sean Juneau no lie
Woulda been better with a 16
I got sober when I realized how is a inanimate object controlling something living. Still sober no drugs. 8 years. What a real track. Props Rittz.
Thank you Rittz for this song its helped me alot with my journey to get clean. I found it near the end of my addiction and it was what i listened to on the comedown every time i was awake just to remind me if i cant do this itll ruin my life and i can get clean and life is much better now not running rhe streets and doing drugs.
Damn I lived that rehab.goosebumps the whole song thanks for sharing.
Hope you are doing well mate
I’ve been home a month from detox and php in south Florida And I want to say I’m proud of you for taking this step regardless of your a alcoholic or drug addict your a addict and you have the tools and support from your family

Big bro the goat 🐐....🙌🏼
Rittz is the Phil Collins of our generation. Lyrical genius and the beast are always perfect
This isn't even the kind of music I enjoy listening to and I still had to have played this a half dozen times since you released it half hour ago just because of how much I can relate to you in this track and how it really effected me emotionally. I'm so grateful to be clean, sober, and alive today. I'm proud of you for taking these steps to get sober man, it's not easy but you're a strong soul and will definitely overcome your addiction(s) if you keep a positive attitude and find solutions instead of excuses. You're an inspiration Ritz, never forget that!!! 🤜🏼🤛🏻
Holy shit man, this made me tear up. RAW. I'm so proud of you and how far you've come and how much change I've seen! Such an inspiration for other's out there struggling.
This song really hits home Rittz your words are true motivation it doesn’t matter what type of addiction you have anybody can break the chins keep up the music
Two months ago I moved out of the sober living house that saved my life in just under two years. Still sober after 1 year and 8 mother fuckin months!! Got my son back, my own spot, my own ride, living happy. Thank you Rittz.
