Lyrics:

I can’t find myself
I get lost inside my brain
I think I might need help
But I pushed all of them way
I took cards they dealt
And there’s nothing I can change
So when I’m by myself
I just pray for brighter days

Sometimes I sit and I reminisce
bout the good times
wish I could get those back
I keep on running these races
that go in my mind
then they go on these tracks
I’m not ready to erase all my memories
I fight depression
and I let it get the best of me
now there’s nowhere to run, nowhere to go
look around its liquor bottles all on the floor
filling up the space
inside my heart and my home
drowning out these thoughts
until they leave me alone

I can’t find myself
I get lost inside my brain
I think I might need help
But I pushed all of them way
I Took cards they dealt
And there’s nothing I can change
So when I’m by myself
I just pray for brighter days

[Verse 2]
These thoughts are draining all my energy
I try to tell em to God
they say i’m going insane
And then they recommended therapy
and to go and talk to a man
who’s getting paid to explain
He started saying
That the chemical imbalance is the reason that my brain ain’t connecting to accomplishments associated with moving on in life and past the things that my heart cannot contain
So the happiness won’t sustain
Then he read me my options
he said here goes a pill
only take two with A meal
and It’ll numb how I feel

I can’t find myself
I get lost inside my brain
I think I might need help
But I pushed all of them way
I Took cards they dealt
And there’s nothing I can change
So when I’m by myself
I just pray for brighter days

Should I drown all these thoughts or should I leave them to float?
I got all of my flaws living inside of this boat
I’ve been anchored in pain
the weight is making me choke
It’s getting harder to breathe
it’s pulling right at my throat
I’ve been hoping for change but don’t know how to restart
they say you ain’t a man when you exposing your heart
Then they say you’re insane until it tears you apart
And then it cuts you so deep and they can tell by the scars
We can only see change when we accept who we are
Try to run from the shame and you will never get far
Don’t you bottle the pain
or live your life in the dark
You’re meant break from those chains
and shine as bright as a star
Don’t you ever tell yourself
that your depression
is the reason you won’t make it
or that happiness is not in your cards
with our God
you can beat all the odds
keep your faith and you’ll never get lost and say

I can’t find myself
I get lost inside my brain
I think I might need help
But I pushed all of them way
I Took cards they dealt
And there’s nothing I can change
So when I’m by myself
I just pray for brighter days

[tasmathius]

Who's back listening to this impactful song in 2024?

[laciciaevans]

This is one of the worst diseases out there. I've battled for so long. I've been through therapy and take meds, and it still hits me like it is tonight. Pray for those of us who suffer from depression. Pray that it doesn't overtake us like it has so many others. Thanks for this song, Dax. I love your music

[JakeJakobi]

Depression sometimes gets the *best of us, * but Dax is here to help get back the *rest of us.*

[UchihaMB]

Hard pressed on every side, but not crushed. Persecuted, but not abandoned. Struck down, but not destroyed. Thank you, Dax, for the art.🥺

[Raigshow]

Dude literally just explained the life I’m living right now

[alexanderxx]

“With our god you can beat all the odds keep your faith and you’ll never be lost” hits so close to home while struggling internally. Damn dax

[silentpanda]

We’re going #1 with this one, come on Dax nation ‼️💯

[InfinitXX]

These songs make me feel I’m not alone when I’m by myself, thank you

[tomwilson]

The Truman Show is a great way to explain what this feels like. PTSD, depression, anxiety... your music is filling a void. What is more underrated is the visual artistry. You are saying so much more in your videos than most people actually understand.

[robcmuh]

I was diagnosed with heart failure last year and given 5 years to live. I was suffering from earth shattering depression and Dax’s music pulled me out of a really bad place. I’m so thankful for him. If you’re reading the comments God bless you.

[JohnnyMontilla]

THANK YOU DAX FOR SHINING A LIGHT ON THE TOPIC OF MENTAL HEALTH!

[kaneamora]

The fact that this man just described the clinical explanation behind depression in a rap is freaking amazing.

[petegreek]

Pray for my little brother, who listens to this song while battling decades of alcohol and drug addiction. His toxic friends, family and environment won't let him escape his own toxic lifestyle. Generational demons and PRIDE hold him captive. He attacks and makes enemies of those who try to expose the truth and ultimately help him. I bind Satan and all his tools in Jesus name. Army of the Lord, please Pray for him 🇬🇷

[chancecold]

Depression pushes me to want to end it all. Shoving me closer & closer to the edge damn near every day. I have to keep reminding myself my babies have to have me & I am NOT alone. My kids are my lifesaver.

[JS-hlgl]

I'm a Marine and have been blown up in war. Through alcohol to try to cope. Got through. And ur music is a real crutch when I get down. Thank u sir

[jayjocage]

3 years ago, I lost my mother in 2020 from stage 4 breast cancer.
2021, My oldest brother committed suicide and couldn't cope with the grief.
In 2022, my other died at a Rehabilitation center on a drug overdose.
And by the grace of God, I found brighter days.
Thanks Dax for sharing your song bro.

[FreddyYJ]

DAX isn't just a rapper he was sent to save people through his music 🔥👑

[austindefosse]

Dax is a different type of guy. He knows what you're thinking before you even do and turns around and make a whole song about it... Love you man
