I'm watching my father fade away from cancer. I feel so blessed that he is/was my Dad. I hear him in this song, it makes me sad yet also makes me to not let let him down. He is the best man I have ever had the privilege to know.

Im with you friend. Lost my mam two years ago to heart disease and I couldn't be with her due to traveling restrictions with Covid, but I'm so very happy that you can be with your father. I'm sure there is almost nothing you can do that will truly let him down

11 years ago I watched esophageal cancer kill my father at 48 years old, I was 24 then. I'm sorry for your loss, your wounds of it are so fresh compared to mine. That phone call minutes after my dad was gone is etched into a painful memory for me. This song is beautiful and I hope you feel better soon. 🤗

My dad is 75 and still does all the things he did at 40, but he's finally noticeably slowed down. We don't acknowledge it, but we all know it and its painful AF to see the strongest man in my life begin to weaken, but he understands, as these lyrics do, that his legacy is secure

I can relate to this so much. My dad is my best friend and it's crushing to see him grow old and struggle to do the things he used to be able to do without even thinking about it.

The greatest pride in a man is to see his children prosper, regardless of what he does. And know his bloodline continues on. Even tho he will not say it, he's proud of you.

First time I heard this song. It'd been maybe 6 months after losing him to cancer. I was driving with my son (who is named after my father) and had to finally pull over I was sobbing so hard. That may have been the hardest a song ever hit me. I still tear up listening to it. What a freight train of a song.

My dad( 1936- 2022) just passed this past Saturday. The day before, I received a job offer that he has wanted me to take for years. I was able to whisper in his ear that I accepted. That afternoon he passed away…..

I miss you, Dad. 1936-2021. Rest in peace, hero.

My dad passed a day after my 21st birthday. He was 58. I learned so much from him during our short time together. There was no fading out. He was gone in an instant from a massive heart attack. No amount of CPR I provided could bring him back. I'll never forget that night and I'm 40 now. Left a giant hole inside of me. Time doesn't heal all wounds, it numbs them.

For the people who have lost there fathers, live on, never give up follow your dreams and make them proud of the child they raised

Unless they're abusers, in which case you're strong to have survived this and you don't have to have a father to be happy or fulfilled. Just be a good father yourself.

There has not been a single time i could listen to this song without crying. My Father is my Hero and in his later age ive watched him throw his life away for drugs. It kills me knowing that any day could be the last😢

Mom... I know the lyrics are dad & son, but this rings true for a mom & daughter too... I said my last goodbye to her last night, she's 82, I'm 61... I feel blessed & honored God handpicked her for my mom... lost my dad in 98, he was 54... I will always find my loves in all their loves... ♡{{{HUGS}}}♡ to everyone who's lost a parent... loved my dad, loved my mom, still do & always will... so much of my heart is stored up in heaven from all my loves already there... I will follow my heart... y'all stay blessed...

I love you dad. Rest in peace 1950 to 2021. He just passed away Monday morning.

@@tdachel1 Thank you. I think about him everyday

The greatest thing that I can ever hear is when my children call me Dad, because I never got to grow old with my DAD.😢

I recently had to rush back to my hometown and watched my father slowly die over 8 days (he had a horrid disease for 8 years), this was one of the most painful experiences of my life. He shaped me to be the man I am today. Even at my age, I will always need my father. I will continue to try and make him proud. Each day is hard knowing he is no longer here.

My father got in the car one day, and drive off. I was 3 years old. My mom got remarried and she and my stepfather were married for 12 years. One evening the state patrol knocked on the door and told us he had been killed in a single vehicle roll over accident. Tire blew and the pickup skidded off the highway rolled over and crushed the cab, breaking his neck instantly. Never before or after have I heard such a long drawn wail of human misery, despair and utter hopelessness. She was catatonic, my 13 year old sister, and my 10 year old brother were the only ones home. So 4 months after my 16 th birthday I rode to the funeral parlour, and identified my stepfathers dead body. The only male figure who was in my life after losing 2 fathers, was my grandfather on my mother's side of the family. This man's strength, honor, and courage are the only reason that I am not on death row, or buried in a cemetery somewhere. Thank you, granpda. My daughter has blessed me with 4 grandchildren and they are the light of my life.

Wow.... the tears this song caused me is insane, and I haven't lost my dad yet..... thank God!

I can not remember the last time I cried. But everytime I listen to this song I can feel the tears behind my eyes wanting to be freed

I love my dad so much he will never know how much i miss him .

Granted this is about a father/son, this made me think of my mother. I lost her in May this year a week after Welcome to Rockville. I watched her fade away for nearly 6 months. She was my biggest supporter. She vouched so much for my mental health and made sure I knew my worth. Not a single day has gone by that I don't think about her, desperately craving a hug and one of our inside jokes. She never got a chance to meet my stepson. She always wanted grandkids. There's such an ache created when you lose a parent, especially at such a young age. She wasn't even 67 yet. It went south so quick none of us were ready.

My beloved Daddy died 2 days before Christmas and his birthday was the day after Christmas and it hurts so badly that I wish I was never born. My whole heart and soul was violently ripped right out of my chest watching someone you would easily die for leave without you!

Am here for my father just passed away few days ago . I used to listen to this song and cry yes cry you will always be in my heary god bless you

so sorry for your loss.

I have three sons what are my greatest fears is how the world is going to treat them both while I’m still here and once I’m gone, all I can really do teach them to be the best men that I know how hope they find a good woman and happiness. This song made me think of that inevitable day when I leave my children first time hearing it today, and I cried in traffic

My brother was always the dad I never had and I miss him so much... he was 28... faded away over 3 years as I watched and couldn't do ANYTHING... I wasn't there when he died... I have always felt so guilty for not being there... my mom and sister have tried to reassure me that he wouldn't have wanted me to see him like that but still I feel like I should've been there... I miss you big bro.........

Loved this song in 2019. I lost my dad in 2021. It hits me like a freight train every time I hear this song now. Couldn’t even listen to it until a few months ago. Still don’t make it through dry eyed though.

My dad passed away from kidney failure last January ( i didnt even know he had it until the Saturday before be passed away), i was watching his not so slow decline for years now. But I was to stubborn to believe it. I really hope i am making him proud

My father passed away but he's always in my dreams now.

My dad had a way of fading in and out repeatedly. Until he could no longer fade in. he doesn't check on me much since he died. More frequently when it was a recent passing. Now it's few and far between. The afterlife must be interesting.

My deepest condolences. It is a very difficult moment in life that I share with you. Keep your head high!

Yeah Piper Dawn; The same here just three months since mine.So Glad to hear that.Exactly!

See ya somewhere, Dad. Wish you could see me, now. I think you'd be proud of me.

Very few songs have made cry, this is one of them

Nothing More is fantastic with their gaddamn lyrics! This is sone of the most beautiful words I've ever heard and their delivery is phenomenal!!

what a good song. I didn't get along with my father and moved out at 18 so we could have a better relationship. when he was too old to take care of my mom's dementia, I took over his role of taking care of his high school sweetheart...and took care of him too. They remained in the house we all grew up in, and whatever my father thought of my choices in life, he got to see I was the man he tried to raise that last half decade of their lives. confidence doesn't come first for you to handle life's challenges, you handle life's challenges and then you gain the confidence.

(Fade in fade out) One to rip heart and fill you up one not forgotten!

For my Dad. And now my Mom.

My grandpa passed away 3 years ago today and every time I hear this song I remember all words of wisdom he gave me and hope I haven’t let him down

This is going to make me miss my dad in 50 years when life does it’s thing it’s good at doing

Don't take the time for granted. We never know how many years we have together. Learn how to live in the moment with the ones you cherish. That's the only wealth we can take with us.

I haven't seen my father in over 11 years, the day I saw him, I realized he still the same abusive and drunk man he was so many years ago, Wish I never wasted my time trying to get to know him....

I watch my grandfather try to lift a 40 pound weight trying to defy age and he puts up a strong fight but i see it failing his body is slowly dying we know it he knows it. Stubbornness won't change anything I'll probably suffer the same fate fighting till the end I don't care. I love my family and I'll fight and struggle till the end. Burn this world with my fury. My family's fury.

MIss u dad 1975-2010 died from a house fire when I was 2 I was about to turn 3 he died being a hero he save me and my sister from a house fire he had to much smoke in his lungs and he was burnt bad and he died at the hospital 8 days later

My dad has been in very bad back pain since I was nine he has been in this for two years now

Good job on them here Leric video

Beautiful

So good

My dad is going away...since he was 12 he's fought kidney disease. Docs said he wouldn't live past 18. He turned 62 in April. He's been on dialysis 8 yrs. A transplant isn't coming... and now he has cancer. Hes been in hell for the last 2 years since his heart attack. I'm his middle child. 33yrs old. His youngest daughter. I'm the only 1 of his kids that's been around thru all this...getting up and rushing him to the ER going 70mph in the middle of the night, calling ambulances, going to Dr appts. And so much more. Its hard to watch and feel so helpless. I don't understand why this has to happen to him. .I relapsed 18 months ago after learning that my 16yr old had died only after I was trying to go see her. 3 mo's after that my bff died. 17yrs she was my bestie....I watched her take her last breath. 3 months after that, my bf of 8 yrs left me n my 2 kids for another girl with 2 kids. I'm so lost...and don't want my dad leaving this Earth disappointed in me. I know he is...and it hurts. I've tried to be strong...so much so I'm empty inside. And I dread the day my dad leaves....he's my best friend. But thru my pain and coping...I've made him despise me. My mom's been gone for 10 years now...drank herself to death at 42. I don't want to be like her. Ill be damned...I don't drink, but drugs are no better.

A few months ago, in August, I got the call that my grandpa was on his way out. Hopped two flights overnight to try and make it. But I missed him by an hour. My dad picked me up from the airport and grandpa passed minutes after I landed. We both got home and grandma told us in the driveway... so I held my dad's hand while the coroner took his father. Everyone tells me that grandpa probably didn't want us to see him go, especially not his baby boy, so he waited until he left the house to go. But to this day, I don't know if I was wrong to take my dad away from his daddy's last hour. For me.

Damn this Song is so fucking Moving. Thank you so much for the Upload and Lyric Video. Totally made my Night

Jesus Christ loves you bros

I lost my father two weeks after my 14th birthday. It'll be 19 years this year. My upbringing was rough, so I was a pissed off teenager. Him and my mother got divorced after 21 years of marriage due to drug abuse, alcohol abuse. I saw my Dad at their divorce hearing. He looked at me and said "I love you, babygirl". I turned around and said " I hate you. I hope you fucking d*e!" as I was walking away. Got in the car, slammed the door and looked the other way. He died 8 months later in a very horrific car accident. He was ejected in mid air, then slid face first up the concrete. He had 98% facial damage. I was Daddy's girl, and he was gone. I went to a VERY dark place for a few years after that. The pain of knowing that those were the last words that he heard from his own daughter? That kills me everyday. I didn't see him waste away, but he had. He was described as a "walking skeleton" and "walking death". He was an active addict, who I've just recently learned, was on a mission to end the pain. He said that he would give everything to have his wife and kids back. I miss you every waking moment, Daddy.......

My dad is gone by cancer so I'm dupest
