  • I can relate to everybit to this song thank you so much may I put it on my ipod you have an amazing voice xx

  • I cried myself to sleep last night listening to this...

  • This song is so wonderful. <3 It brings back memories, it really does, but it's amazing to know that they are ONLY memories now, and nothing more then the past that we can't change, but it only made us stronger and who we are today..

    Do you have the lyrics to this, by any chance? I know you wrote it, but do you still have them? I'd love to read them c:

  • This is amazing.... I cried so hard... It definettly brought back memories

  • I love your song...

  • You're so good....thank you for sharing this cuz it makes me believe that I can go on....And don't think that just because this happened to you doesn't mean that you can't continue and reach your dreams....never think that, because you are an amazing musician and person and you have touched my life in these few short minutes that I heard this song....thank you :)

  • Mind if I add this to my ipod?

  • I totally understand this whole video. You've portrayed it so well.

    And about the being tied down? I completely know what you mean. I was, repeatedly.

    It's broken me. I can't begin to describe how much I hate myself for what he did to me. I've just found out i'm 4 months pregnant aswell. I'm only just turning 15.

    My life has barely started, and I already want to end it.

    I'm just damaged goods. Nobody would want me now.

    I'll never forget how you hurt me. I'll never forget how I cried.

  • very powerful thank you for this your so talented !

  • very powerful thank you for this your so talented !

  • This song speaks to the pain and torment we survivors feel ,.Thank you for voicing the turbulent emotions in my soul in such a meaningful and beautiful song.

  • damnit ur gonna make me cry lol... i wish you the best and i wish i could take some of your pain away with myself , truthfully... noone deserves this, and this world is really bugged...

  • john i hope u know that my revenge is that im successful, i have a loving boyfriend and im making it farther in this world than u ever will

  • i am so sorry about what happend to you or to everyone for that matter im looking at all these comments leaving good advise on how to kinda get over it a little bit but i dont have any i can only say that it deffinatly wasnt ur fault and it might help to talk to someone and tell them your feelings and i hope all gets better and that ur scars fade and u can finaly be that happygirl you were b4 that happend  -best wishes

  • You are so strong for having done this song. It speaks so much. It expresses everything I feel. I wish I could put this on my mp3, because I listen to it a lot. I am a survivor, and your song expresses so many of the mixed thoughts that float around in my head sometimes.

  • Anyways thx for letting me rant and rave.

  • I know it is not the same but I am not going to be part of the 10% who doesn't speak out. While I wasn't raped I was sexually abused when I was younger and am just now getting over the pain. While I am generally a very tolerant person I think that people like tipaul1 have no idea what it feels like to be a sexual assualt/abuse survivor. I was, and some times still am, in unbearable pain. I can't even imagine how painful it is when it comes to living with the memories of a sexual assult.

  • @TheLordKnox i understand =)

  • Here I go breaking a rule of socitey. I am a male survivor of sexual abuse, and in my opinion ppl like hillbillydavem12 don't deserve to live. He has no idea the pain and heartache abuse survivors go through.

  • Thers' a thing I don't understand, why do the owners of the channels not protect their own cause, If you wanna share, help or launch awareness than PLEASE do NOT allow pervert sickos to harrass victims or anyone who's compassionate about this topic. Clear out the comment space and delete the ouragious comments..If you really care ..!!!

  • Thank you for making this video. It really means a lot to me. so thank you

  • The biggest problem for any family is (ALCOHOL & DRUG)

    It's Not Allowed for any Moslem to drink Alcohol or Drug Abuse

    As Allah Almighty said:

    {O ye who believe! Strong drink and games of chance and idols and divining arrows are only an infamy of Satan's handiwork. Leave it aside in order that ye may succeed. }

    AlMaEda 5:90 The Holy Quran (Translation)

  • You are not alone... This must be stopped..

  • from a guys stand point i think all men like tht deserve to have there dck cut off

  • The song, the lyrics, the music, the video are all very good. You have a lovely voice.

    I think lots of us can see themselfs into it.

  • may 3rd 2008 i was raped by the man i thought i was going to actually have a relationship with...stupidly i believed him wen he said that he loved me... it hurts everyday exspecially wen i see him almost everyday and he just looks at me and laughs or tells me we need to get over it </3

  • You should not stay near that man. Go to the police and let him be arrested. easier said than done, I know. I never found the guts to go, and I regret every day. May 15th 2005 I got away. after multiple rape and torture. Stupidity has nothing to do with it, they trick you, and YOU ARE NOT TO BLAME! You need to get out of the cycle, before you can recover, bit by bit. If you need someone to talk, I will be there..

  • my father molested me this summer but i still try to forget

  • i was molested by my grandpa and my moms boyfriends after my dad died. then after i was adopted with my 3 sisters and brother, my brother raped and molested me for 6years. ill never 4get it. the abuse stoped wen i was 12. im 18 now and i still get really bad flashbacks and nitemares. i try to tell other ppl my story to help them, its really hard to get over. i used to be numb to all emotion i didnt smile, laugh, cry, im doin beter now tho

  • WHAT THE FUCK U BITCH! how cud u say that! ur pretty stupid

  • i cnt believ fucken idiots do that!! FUCKEN BITCHES! if anyone needs 2 talk u an always write 2 me:)

  • What the hell??? that is out! of course none gets abused!? they just compain about it cause the want attention?

    That is a load of Bull! sorry but i am someone who has been abused and so has mi best friend, its not fun and not something to boast about! U dont lie about it nd cant just get over it! No one deserves to be abused! i agree with ChristianGirl951 NO ONE!

  • thank you and I'm sorry, and you are right you don't just boast about it, when people do talk about it on here they are just trying to find a way to tell it and this is the first step for them, I've been there.. i started practicing saying it to people annonymously, eventually eight and a half years later I was able to actually talk about it in person, I have been abused.. badly, my sister had a child at 13 by my uncle, and I was 11. It started when I was eight. IT ISN'T SOMETHING YOU ASK FOR!!

  • That is something you NEVER say.. I don't care who you are or THINK you are.. You don't say that. No one deserves to be abused NO ONE not even murderers... I don't care what someone does no one deserves something like that... That is down right low down and cowardish for you to say!!

  • Mi dad only minaly abused me and i still cant forget. it still haunts me.

  • I need advice. I was abused by my father for years. I just got out of the abuse a few months ago because i ran away. I'm not there any more but it still haunts me in every thing i do. Every time I close my eyes I see him. How do i get past it?

  • i believe the pain of been abused never goes away.....and i can truly relate 2 you because my dad abused me also.....im much older now and i still get flashbacks and angry and all feelin that u can imagine when it comes 2 been abused.....my only advice 2 you as now and thats becuz its stil early stages is 2 talk 2 some1.....like a friend doctor or councillor.....or even me or any1 here.....it will be hard at 1st.....and maybe 4 a while but with time it can get easier.....

  • I tried talkin about it once. But I just couldn't do it. It's like re-living it. And even just talking about it, it still seems so real. Like it's happening all over again. I don't think I'll be able to talk about it.

  • i know its hard.....it happened 2 me years ago from young to 17 when i left home.....and i wont lie 2 you.....but even now its still hard like u just wrote.....i get the flashbacks and the memories yes they are still as fresh as the day it happens.....but at the time and even now iv done nothink.....i never reported it.....i hardly talk about it.....as some1 said 2 me 1nce i self harm in a way that im torturin myself.....but i think thats becuz i never did anythink about it.....

  • iv jus let life lead me 2 where i am now.....and yes i am happy.....but it comes with a load.....and that is somethink i hav became use 2.....but you your at a stage where it sounds like u are still young .....dont be like me and carry it wth you.....in time and only when ur ready speak 2 some1 even ifs in on the fone or here .....no body needs 2 know ur name or anythink like that.....me and others will help you.....but only in ur own time.....

  • Thank you for your support and offers of help. I appreciate it. You're right. I am young. Since you've been there, I know you're probably right. I guess I'll talk about it eventually.

  • bles.....takecre of urself and never 4get some1 here will always be here 4 you if ever you need help.....

  • 1 step at a time.....you will get there.....and were here 4 you if ever you need us.....please takecre 4 now.....

  • well the only way i feel like i can get through it is writting about it. its a very hard thing to get over and it will take time. i hope everything turns out ok.

  • i'm a survivor of abuse.. its so difficult to forget and it hurts so much....

  • Comment removed

  • My girlfriend was recently raped, and it destroyed her life. To make things worse, because she is white and the rapists were black, they said they did not rape her, and that she is only saying that because they are black! Even though it was caught on security camera! It hasn't been the same, she hates being touched now and cries every time she sees their faces on tv. but I will not leave her. I hope the guys get what they deserve, and people keep giving her support. This video was beautiful

  • Be strong and prove you love her keeping by her side. Time will erase all that happened and you both will turn to smile and be happy again. Pray to Jesus and ask for him to change everything.Men's justice is failed but God Justice never fails.God bless you both and help your girlfriend and you to forget bad times.

  • @silentscars024 I saw this video and cried - I had dreams also! I a relate - though differently in that I did not get angry at them - ME I hated and am still working on that, but then again, I am also still trying to come to terms with that it was not my fault - not my shame to carry, what THEY did. Thanks for this song - TAKE back YOUR dreams!

  • @silentscars024 Only wish I was as emotionally free today back when I was in my 20's following abuse. Molested by my own brother's, their friends from 3 to 18. Parents either knew and ignored or had no idea. Brothers and friends walked free. Father was emotionally abusive because his father did the same to him. Trusted no one fully my whole life now 50 have made steps slowly to recover without killing perpetrators and ending up in jail myself. God freed me the love of Jesus Christ.

  • Beautiful song. I loved your video. I feel like crying. Thanks for the support.

  • Great song hun! i was sexually abused from age 7-14 by my dad also mental,physical & emotional from my mother and step father. i am now 29 my abuser walked free, i suffer severe depression and other problems, i class myself as "USED & DAMAGED GOODS" & find it hard to cope there is so much anger & pain in me, but i have to carry on for my 2 beautiful children that mean more than the world to me, maybe one day i will see the light

  • I believe in you. I always love and guard to all living beings.

  • I know it's not easy what happened to you,but i tell you only Jesus is the Light.He's the only who can set you free.You are his tresure and your soul values too much for Him.He died for us all.I wish that God may confort your heart and makes you happy.You are child of God.

  • I work at a facility that is home to teen sexual offenders. This is their last hope before prison. Some of them make it, some of them don't. What they need is to RISE ABOVE this suffering. This can only be done through hope, faith and GOD....and also people like you who create videos like this. These victims need to be heard. Thank you for this video...keep up the good work!
