Lyrics:

Everything I ever did I always gave it my best
I don’t know if anyone relates but the feeling that I get is like a truck sitting on my chest
wondering how much do I got left
My last call
my last step
I’m not gonna wait just to see what’s next I go hard cuz today could be my last breath
We do life and we can’t relive it
We only get one chance if you blink then you might just miss it
Many people come and go they all just visit
don’t ever expect nothing different
Just listen as I paint this image that you’ll all revisit
ya my glass half empty but I'm still might sip it
I was traumatized
What would you of said when you was looking in my mommas eyes?
Nothing
Ya I might of said I was ok but I probably lied
So this pain is how I harmonize
Making impact that’s what I personify and yes I’m making music that you cannot just defined by the numbers on my Spotify
All of this pain I just wanna be happy
momma almost died the same day that she had me
Driving to hospital she swerved and crashed badly
Doctor said I miracle while looking at my daddy
I was zero when I first dodged death
I was 6 when the devil told me watch my Step
Couldn’t sleep I was scared to go inside my bed
Fighting demons i was hearing things my head
So back to doctor he didn’t have a diagnosis
So my whole damn life I felt lost while fighting psychosis
Talking to myself hoping nobody would notice
Mom said pray every time heard the voices
Life or death everyday I swear I made choices
Knife in my hand trying not to lose focus
Playing basketball religiously to drown out the noises man
Lemme Explain that Its like laying on train tracks
Grabbing Guns contemplating blowing ya brain back
Eyes Closed shut watching everything fade black
people stepping over you you feel like a place mat
And Let make it clear
God is the only one that I’ve ever feared
But you start to get paranoid and look over ya shoulder when these people have been hurting you for so many years
So I had to escape
If you listening I know that you relate
It’s that feeling that you get like your life and existence was all just one big mistake
I felt trapped and I couldn’t find space
I went and got lost in the things I’d create
Ever since I was a kid
People hated and they judged everything that I did
So I went into my mind and created the abyss
Man I swear I did
how the hell you think I make all hits
It’s cause I’ve been broken, beaten, Dragged, laughed at, scorned, burned and kicked
So I get reach in this endless pit
Of Hurt and pain from all that sh*t
And that’s the only reason that you people come here or for Gods sake even know that Dax exists
This is how it feels to drown
This is how it looks when your lost and you can’t be found
The abyss was a place I’d visit but I went so much that I’m gone and I’m stuck here now
This is not music
This is not doped
This is me begging y’all to throw me a rope
So I can try to climb out the place where I came in life when I spiraled and first lost hope
Let me explain
I’ve been dax so long I get ptsd when somebody says my real name
But I guess that’s the price you pay
I didn’t want to be like this
But I guess it is what it is
Inside the abyss

Love you Dax. Thank you for everything.

[yngtrubull]

I don't understand why the industry don't appreciate this type of music because honestly it's what we all need right now.

[WadsworthsProductions]

Dear Dax
I’m writing this with tears in my eyes, we share some pain, we share some trauma. But we share this earth too, we share hope, we share happiness, we share struggle, we share fear, we share forgiveness. Listening to this song I realized how much you’re going through. The music is great but your heart is hurt I can tell, I hope we can share a healing ❤️‍🩹. I hope our souls become healed from the pain and suffering. My mother was addicted to meth and drugs my whole life my father was emotionally abusive and it haunts me to this day. Waking up at midnight with my dad screaming at my mom, always fighting over finances because pills were priority and drugs were priority. You don’t realize how many scares your left with until your older. Thanks for making a song that can help heal the wounds.

[pappagator]

Dax broh. You got a spiritual gift. Not a disease or illness

[jeremyphillippe]

Anyone listenening needs to know this... he is the reason i keep going. I could've killed myself, but he dropped an album that changed my life. Thank god for Dax. I didnt have to feel alone anymore. It made me realize that I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE. Lets stand up together, my fam. I'm here for you too.

[adamlong]

That lyric " talking to myself hoping nobody notices" I feel you bro... Listening to songs secretly singing about yourself hoping nobody notices your actually talking about yourself

[duhbullb]

Takes real courage to put all your heart out for us to hear Dax. A wise man once said "God got you, If you're born you're chosen" ❤ We love you man 🔥

[Wytchokolate]

Dax doesn’t just make music with his words. He makes an IMPACT. Thank you and amen.

[mqmxpdu]

Wow! One of the most powerfully written songs. I just found Dax yesterday. Real world truths being told in his music!!

[josephthomas]

You are the first person I turn to when I feel like giving up. Thanks you for being different

[karen]

Dax, as a 47 year old woman from the UK, with a Son going through major Psychosis, I just want to say THANK YOU!!!! I have spent 8 years trying to understand what is going on with him and you manage to sum it up in 3 minutes...Please know your music IS making a massive difference to people's lives so thank you ❤

[GrahamCracka]

This is so real Dax. As a veteran I appreciate your music, struggle, and sacrifice. You're one of the few real people online these days making content. Don't ever change.

[deltamovieshd]

I hear this man's screams!! Let him know he's not alone, he's screaming for help through music. Everyone, reach out!!!!

[koodiE]

Wow, deep! This made me cry. To have this impact on people, you are an amazing singer/songwriter Dax. I always look forward to your next masterpiece. God Bless you 🙏👌🫶

[iconicreactions]

FELT THIS ONE DEEP IN MY SOUL! Died 3 times when I was born, was deaf for the first 3 years of my life and lost my dad at 2 and music is where I turn to for therapy so this one’s Finna be on repeat for damn sure!

[skewedpriorities]

It’s honestly sad that the most genuine and authentic songs we listened to it comes from someone’s misfortune, hurt, sorrow… but it’s comforting to know you not the only one going through all this😪❤️

[ReflexVivid]

I love you dax, you saved my life 5 years ago: my son passed away after my deployment to Afghanistan and I fought because of you and my son. It’s going 5 years now and I want to give up every day even though I have a daughter, going through a divorce and she’s trying to take me for everything when I have my daughter all the time and she lied, I don’t have the money for a lawyer but I’m fighting tooth and nail. I think about suicide every single day, deployment, my son, my divorce my custody battle. I’m slipping and losing my grip but you help me hold on. Thank you Dax, man to man, I love you and I’m pushing as hard as I can brother, I’ll see you at the top ❤️💯

[rghookasian]

Brother Dax, as someone who fought through severe anxiety, panic attacks and constant feeling on hopelessness, I could not have explained it the way you did in this beautiful art form. You are not alone. God is using you to help others. God Bless you. You will br in my prayers. Congratulations on another amazing track. ❤️🙏🏻

[lizgermain]

Your music has prevented me from ending my own life. Thank you Dax. Thank you 🙏
