To all the Jenny's of the world: I'm so fucking sorry you went through this. My mother was a victim of this as well, and it kills me to see the way it affects her. Breaks my fucking heart. But please don't give up, to everyone. There's so much more to life than the pain, and it takes a while to learn that, but it eventually will all settle at the bottom.

Bro. You made me cry RA. I was 19 when I found my brother dead from heroin overdose. I performed CPR just hoping I could get him back. It didnt happen. I became so fucked up snorting xanax thinking that would fix my problem. It didnt. It wasn't until my first daughter that I became alive again. Between this song and First Born. You have made me feel so alive. One Love RA

I live in the Hudson valley in NY - it's right above the city and all these counties have enormous amounts of overdoses and especially in the past 6 years because of carfentanil and fentanyl. That shit makes heroin look like a tylenol with codeine. Idk if you use or not but either way please try not to because it is a battle almost impossible to win. I mean shit, I'm on methadone bc of it and that's the only thing that helped me get off street drugs.

Songs like this hit home and it's why I respect artists like ra for giving us music we can actually feel instead of all the bullshit that gets all the attention because they have so much money backing them.

This song had my grown ass in tears. The depth and reality. The art here is something different, this belongs in a museum not a playlist.

Read this about Ruck today, an old post but still.. Price stood for authenticity in rap, he articulated the conscience of the music. He was more alpha than Drake or Meek could ever wish to be, and as his friend Just Blaze told NPR, he was also a geek who loved comic books and the simple things in life. He was capable of containing multitudes because he was real. But realness often doesn’t sell, unless it’s packaged a certain way. “If your fav underground artist is still alive, tell them that now,” she implored. “Seeing all these tributes to Sean P No way he knew how much he was loved.” Luv ya RA

Damn, that was deep. Definitely not expected, but necessary. In these times of mumble rap and b.s., I like to see some truth in hip hop, positive or not. Hip hop was originally about telling stories about what's going on in the world. I think RA definitely did that on this one.

Bro, I played this for my 61 year old dad, he cried right beside me. From front to back, this album hit every emotion, not one skip. He went and told all his coworkers about RA. How does such a classic album come out in 2020?! Thank you RA for breathing life into this hip hop shit always.

got me crying immediately. it's a rough world out there RA and EVERY time i've gone to one of your shows you show us how much you want to be a part of the change. thanks for creating music that uplifts and inspires change and emotional reaction. i'll never forget you doing halo in the crowd shortly after my dad passed, it meant the world

What a brilliant song . It may actually be 1 of the best songs ever written. Much respect from ireland

This so awesome especially the final verse I dealt with Heroin addiction for a years and lost both of my brothers not to addiction tho so that last line about mothers burying their children hit home hard especially! Watchin my mom go through losing her two oldest children was the worst and then to have to watch her youngest (me) go thru addictions to meth and then heroin! Great track!

They saved my life, and many others who use the program how it’s intended and aren’t just using it to keep them from getting dopesick or selling their scripts. People who never been through opiate withdrawal and the dopesickness from not having it will never understand why they grip you so hard and is extremely hard to “just stop”.

R.A is easily a top 10 emcee.

That's why Hip-Hop music was created! Respect RA!

Dope concept Rugged Man, we don’t see or hear songs like this anymore... 🔥

Respect the man who ain't afraid to show how he feels... sh!t i learned from Tupac but rarely see anymore ✊

RA is such a legend. He’s the only white emcee to ever record a song with Biggie in the studio. He was blackballed for things like taking a shit on a studio equipment and just being wild AF. One year at the GOTJ in Oklahoma (only year there) the cops tried to shut down his set for noise ordinance and cut off his mic and speakers. So he picked up a megaphone and did his whole set acapella . He’s rapped crazy things, straight give no Fxcks. Then there’s deep songs that move you like this, Still Gets Me Through the Day, Uncommon Valor should be played in history classes. He released a music video over Taylor Swift beat and killed it. He did a video with his child in a baby carrier strapped to his check and still came off hard AF. RA is a hiphop icon!

Now THIS is what hip hop is about. Telling a story through poetic words.

Ra da truth this real ol skool real life stories hits everybody delt wit lost rappers ledgends celebs this year 2020 all the way down almost 2021 soon

I'm a big timcast fan. But I was a RA the Rugged Man fan and I still am. When you grow up different than someone else things look different. Everyone is entitled to their opinions. And everyone who's talking shit after the interview is just talking shit. Hater maybe. I don't know. Different point of views is what makes this fucking America.

It’s a damn shame he was being a racist dick in that show. His music seems dope though

I love RA but he did make a damn fool of himself. That being said you are absolutely right with that last line.

this is hard to listen to, but in a good way, whatever that means

Songs and videos like this need to be played in school assemblys so the children can see and feel the pain and heartache of others and victims

RA is hiphop in its purest form

This is what real hip hop is right here. RA the Rugged is one of my top 3 emcee's of all time. True lyrical skill that can paint a vivid picture in your mind. I hate to see no talent people like Bad Bhabie get cash thrown at them for corny ass ratchet ryhmes while my man is over here dropping ill verses everytime he touches a mic. Real hip hop heads know whats up. Golden Era baby.

what a masterpiece

Thee greatest rapper of all time but if not one of the closest we will ever experience

One telling the truth.. so rare these days.. thx R.A. for being who you are! Big

shit made me shed a tear, man. ra never disappoints.
