"Sober" - Tom MacDonald & Madchild ft. Nova Rockafeller

I feel like if I cant get to go to a concert or see LIVE. Can you indulge us with a stream

Leopard fish fry stuff ed toy

I’ve never done any drugs but I understand the depressive and anxious part of just living life...def having this song on repeat

THIS IS SO GOOD my name ls Jonathan Ståhle from Sweden Malmo a have take heroin ön 28 years and know a HAVE been clean from heroin since 8 years 😅🤘👌

I'm happy you have Nova to keep you straight; or at least try Tom

Anyone can get get strung out and live that life, but escaping it is nothing short of a miracle. I’ve been sober from heroin and cocaine for 10 years. I don’t even recognize the person I once was.Those of us who make it out and fight this hell everyday must remember that regaining your dignity, become an adult, gaining trust back are things that can’t be bought. The real things in life are earned

Nice job Tom. It got me too because they feed it to us. Muse explains it well in Uprisings. 🇺🇸🦅✌🏼

As a recovering addict 7ys 3m clean this song hits me hard.thanks Tom for all the inspirational music you do you help a lot of people without even knowing it..and to all the people that see this that know me and I’ve hurt or done wrong I’m sorry just know I’m a better person and without y’all I wouldn’t be...thank you

Me:",Be nice" Vids",AY NUU BE MEAN" Me:",do you want me to get expeld from school or regret my life NON but VIDS NEED TO UPGRADE WHAT YOU MEAN THEY HAVE SO MANY UPGRADES NOOO I"this reminded me from my grandpa who died in 2020.He died before Christmas.The doc called my dad.My dad is a firefighter🙄.my dad told my mom.When l heard the news l sat down at cryed so hard l had a yucky attitude.You guys may seem mean but your not.

Your music hits people hard. Just reading the comments is enough to see. It's a damn shame this music doesn't get the recognition it deserves

Addicts always have too many fake friends. That's why relapses can be positive. I just came back from one, 11 days clean and sober. My fiancee left me because I lied about being high. I came clean and told her the truth. So if you fall down, And the world closes in, YOU CAN GET UP AGAIN!!

+24

Year clean off of Heroin, Blow and all the rest of that shit for a year now on Jan 1st. Thanks for the amazing message.

Tom I love all of your songs OMG!!

To miss I love your music so much🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

I never really had any addictions, but i know a friend that cut herself to handle her stress. Luckily she stayed, and i still talk to her. She is 6 months clean and proud. Im not sure how many others congratulate her, but i know it helps when people realize accomplishments. I know it eases the pain at least temporarily. Keep going, the clouds will dissipate with time.

❤️

I just wanna say that to everyone that is battling addiction. keep fucking fighting. I'm proud of you. you wont always get it right the 1st time or even the 1st 40 times. just keep going. to those that have gotten sober and are working hard to stay that way. I'm fucking proud of you too. dont give up!

Hope MadChild made it through through the pandemic sober, man I seen too many friends crack. I didnt relapse, and feel confident but man the situatin in the world still has me feeling dysfunctional. SPent years totally isolated high and alone, get sober to find the hardest thing is being content sitting alone, with just myself. Glad I figured it out before this last year. Hope someone thinking about picking up, holds off for today.

Being a paramedic. Seeing all these great stories. Is a breath of fresh air. I'm so tired of seeing people hurting. This music is great for such things. Feeling that someone , just some other human in general can relate. I wish every human being the best in life.

I have been an addict for my life..,.after hearing this song......this is my turning point

Wow powerful, crawling out from the dark. Such Power brother 👑✌🏽

I am sober from Alcohol since June 2018.. but i abused Benzos now i am in Rehab and this Song keeps me alive because i know i am Not alone ❤️

Never touched heroin but certainly have had my life inexplicably changed by drugs. Here in Northern ireland it was mephadrone and my addiction was horrendous took over a year to even feel remotely like I could deal with anything without banging 2 lines first. We all need to stick together and I just want to say to all the people suffering that im not religious and we will likely never meet but I still pause for a thought for us all in the struggle and thats global. My partner and children saved me but I'm one of the lucky ones. Love and respect to you all! Hmu any time ill always listen ive always got time XD

Good for you my dude, I am glad you got your shit straight. Wishing nothing but the best for you and yours. Much love & respect, brother.

wander how it would turn out if Tom did a song feat Eminem at some point??

Love that, it’s my time time to mend (my) those broken wings ♥️.

Thank you

I pray to god and all I get back is Silence

Don't let anyone back talk you All your songs are true and Help me

Wait a minute... didn't you clown on Mac Lethal for his struggle with addiction? Like this for him being a hypocrite eeprojects.info/nick/0peOe6B_rpy4x6Q/video

Best song I've ever heard nothing hits closer to home I wish you the best tom hopefully one day I can do the same

I've had to put my baby in a grave, too. I don't wish that shit on anyone.

Just be glad if this is a silly song because you can’t relate to it 🤕

Year and a half sober now, 2 years August 2021.

This song is amazing I wouldn’t have it any other way than being sober I’ll fight this war forever with my addiction thank you Tom your a inspiration to millions of people this was my rehab song I’m going to continue fighting this war forever I’ll never stop being sober is way better than killing myself with drugs

Fighting addiction sucks it’s Our War within Alcoholic myself. You all think your big and bad be big and bad and fight the battlefield within. I know deep down inside you have that good and y’all know most want it that way. Fight cause after you fight back you WIN Don’t Stop

Almost a year old

Powerful as fuck this track

Fell back and relapsed recently on meth... But i am clean now... My demons caught up with me,beat me down mentally till i had no fight left... Had a breakdown... Before i knew it i was hut that stem an 8 ball at a time... Thank god i pulled through

I'm a recovering heroin, meth, Nd needle addict been clean for 15months was using for 2½ years..and I'm getting back to who inside to be slowly..getting my life back together day by day..love this song..my sister showed me this song and I love it from the first sec I heard it.. we got this..#recoverystrong

Love this jam and every other song you have produced. Keep it up bro!!

Escaping toxic social circles that enable addiction is one thing but hard to escape the dreamscape. Battle asleep and awake.

Inspiring

Driving with hot beats and k screewed under the bunps, paying bills:(

Only someone who could be there could write this, much love

I'm surprised they can sing this without bawling... I am hearing it...the condition we are all in is so heavy...it breaks me knowing how deep some of us get into this kind of a life...just robbed and deproved of real experience and true human connection...the things that make this life feel worthwhile....you guys really are saving lives with your music...I'm fucking certain of it...

Talk to me

12 month clean right now ! Alcool end drug!

Nova looks like an anime character ❤️

The passion they are expressing in this video, the song, all of it is perfect! Awesome Recovery Anthem!!!

Sad that my mental breakdown came with the massive censorship that just happened :(

5 year's

Hero

How do you start climbing out of the whole your in.... Ya ever feel like your treading water trying not to drown. How do u start moving forward???

I’m glad I found this dude.

25 days into the VA's inpatient rehab right now. I've run from my demons for long enough its time to face them head on. I never want to go back to that darkness I just left. I thought the war was over when I got home from over seas years ago. Really Its just begun. Ive got a long road head of me but now I know I can finally win this battle. To anyone out there struggling with taking that step to get help with their addiction just do it, take that plunge. You got this. Ive finally become someone I know again. Thanks for this song Tom. It meant so much to me than I can express right now. Keep killing it mann✌🖤

I can't forgive myself when I'm clean so I don't bother trying

Im currently in a hospital bed awaiting my time to get to rehab for the 5th time. Im on the strongest fentanyl patch and 2mg bars and im dealing with nausea and extra pain. Im starting suboxone on Thursday and lorazepam tonight. I know I will be miserable but Tom will be there to help me thru. Thank 4 that Tom! Love you Fam!

I always said the problem wasn't me or the people I surrounded myself with. Truth is, that was denial and foul When I fell off they turned on me. Now I am proud to say I'm sober, I'm working out and feeling great. Thank you Tom, Nova, Madchild and all you beautiful ppl that are fans. Never give up!

Can i please play your music during my live stream? I think more people need to hear it!

It is a war you fight forever! But it is in your moments of weakness that you often discover your greatest strength. Addiction sucks but I wouldn't trade that experience. It has given me an understanding of myself and others I didnt have before!

This song just devastated me and brought me back to the mirror to see my soul.

I just recently quit drinking. I’m 31 and I’ve been getting black out drunk since I was 14, that’s not including the drugs through the years. This has been the most terrifying and satisfying feeling I’ve ever experienced. Even with my brother trying to kill himself a few days I ago, I still stayed sober.

💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯❤️

The dislikes R from the ones who don't want to get sober. (In my opinion)

Song speaks volumes. You see the side of an addict and going through the recovery from drugs/alcohol. I commend those who go through recovery and never go back. Great shit Tom

This song made me tear up thinking about my past and what im currently dealing with.

1 year sober today.

Recently reached 8 months sober and very grateful :) In a much better place.

At the ripe age of 24 I’m here trying so hard to get away from my drug of choice methamphetamine. I did it every day atleast a gram a day for 4 years. Before that I was 17 drinking doing coke ecstasy molly really anything that was put in my face. I spent so much time dealing with crooks, rejects, goons and shooters. All of which I gave everything away to $170000, two cars and my entire future later after I had overdosed on fentanyl 4 times day had to be resuscitated with a lot of luck I pulled through. But the battle wasn’t over. My life almost being taken away wasn’t enough for me to stop. My family begged and pleaded for me to just stay home, my ex fiancé begged me to just keep in contact if I’m gonna be around that shit(but she didn’t know how bad I was in it). No human power could stop me from this suicidal way of life.. eventually I had been arrested and got out on a pretrial intervention program, to which I had failed. And the gave me one more chance on a program known as county drug court. At first I tried to run like I always did I had even attempted to hang myself 4 times to no avail cause I couldn’t tie knots properly. I’d just wake up 30-45 minutes later confused and scared. That was when I realized that it was not my time and what ever god was up there had a plan for me. So I dug my heels into the program. Rigorous drug tests, group and individual therapy sessions, and many hours of meetings and here I am. 1year and two months sober. I never thought I would get here much less be able to enjoy the life I have today but I had to work so hard for it. It’s still a tough battle but I take it all one day at a time and hopefully it will be easier but for now I must hold my place otherwise I will fall back into that self destructive game I love to play. To anyone else going through this keep up the hard work it takes a lot of courage to admit that you have a problem but it takes tenfold that amount to work towards the light but when you start and don’t stop you will now a new freedom and a new happiness one unlike any you could have ever dreamed of

Good song

Ball Of Steel To Be So Real... Love You And Nova .. Rappers Have Nothing On You . Have Not Stopped Bingeing Ya'll.. Stay Strong .....

im currently in treatment and i am so glad that my man showed me this song because it gives me hope for a better life for me and my coming child.

This will my anthem in 2022 . Goal is to get sober in 2021.. Been an alcoholic for 13 years now and it's not doing me any favours ..

Starting my sober journey 2021. Wish me luck xx tom you are my inspiration

Getting ready for the daily grind with my lighter in the air. Addiction is a beast, I’ve dealt with it for 20 years now, take it a day at a time and always remember.... The only easy day was yesterday. When your going thru hell... keep going.

Seriously you guys are killin it. There are so so many people out there who need this. Including me. Thank you

❣❣❣❣❣💫💞

Ohh shit another one hitting home Tom...

I’m not certain how many comments or likes you need to be profitable , your lyrics speak to the heart brother. I’m a fan, first fine in my life. Mad child is 🔥

Fire🔥🔥🔥you guys are an inspiration.

hit me hard, i know i'll never be cured, just a ongoing battle that i may or may not win before it kills me

Thank you Tom and friends ! My wife and I are struggling with alcohol abuse and Im So fu#king tired. This here helped for today.

I love your testimony. Love you Tom. The grace of God, that is because of what his son has done for me by standing where I should be, and I am standing where he should be...

Yo! Shout out to my fellow addicts who are trying and fighting to crawl off the broken merri-go-round that is addiction. Good luck to all of us that are on that bumpy as fuck, death dropping stomach turning hills, and sharp ass turns with the annoying fucking blindspots, long and windy "road to recovery". Keep it classy, show off your scars, unapologetically. From one to another with love... Kris ✌🏿❤🤘🏻

This song is amazing!! Every addict feels this in their bones!! Strongest line to me is This is a war I’ll fight forever!! That’s the truth!! Seeing them withdrawing on the couch makes me think when I was going through that. Fu$k ,that’s the closest to hell I ever wanna feel again!! I remember thinking hell couldnt even be this bad! That’s what helps me . I think about that and tell myself you wanna go through that again? I was an addict for 6 years. Opioids were my devil. I never thought I could stop devil kept telling me it’s to late you been on this shiz to long .. I started believing him. What woke me up honestly was I was sick and tired of being sick and tired! The every morning soon as my feet hit the floor getting me fix if I was out calling drug dealers I know. Always hunting needing money selling and pawning my shiz for dollars just for a damn pill. I cringe thinking of those days.I also was forgetting the person I was before drugs!! That scared me the most. I had changed I wasn’t the same person and I hated who I became. Drugs or my son I had to pick. I was about to lose him and that was it no damn drug is worth my kid!! I’m 2 years clean and yes I have fell of the wagon couple times but I pick myself up and keep going . I can do it anydamn can. It’s hell I won’t lie you just got to want it bottom line!

What up, y'all, my name's Tom Little while back, was an alcoholic Had a mental breakdown like a year ago Came close to put me in a coffin Damn After the hooker I loved After I did all the drugs After I finally got fired for showing up late to the job hella tired and drunk After the oxys I put up my nose with my boss of the oil rigs when I was young After my ex cut her wrists and the cops thought I stabbed her and beat me then put me in cuffs After I totalled my car tryna run from the cops with a kilo of coke in the trunk After I drank till I rotted my teeth out my head, got infections in all of my gums After I couldn't get hard 'cause the vodka and porno sedated me till I was numb After I couldn't escape from the basement I rented and went to go live with my mom After I cheated on people I needed and lied tryna hide from the guy that I was Then I got sober, the madness was over, now I am proud of the man I've become, yeah I'm finally someone that I know again I started climbing out the hole I'm in Fighting demons and I know I'll win It's time for me to mend these broken wings Life has been hard, I know it gets better This is a war that I'll fight forever Whoa-ay-oh, ay-oh Whoa-ay-oh, ay-oh I have my scars, I'll always remember When I lost it all and never surrendered Whoa-ay-oh ay-oh Whoa-ay-oh ay-oh What up y'all? My name's MadChild, I've been off the Xanies for a while now I was waking up feeling suicidal, but I think I'm finally starting to smile now Man, I lived a hell of a life, I've been to hell and back twice Lost ten million dollars, three different addictions, don't tell me 'bout paying the price From penthouses with top models, hanging with strippers we'd pop bottles To anxious and hiding alone in my room from the world, I was pissing in pop bottles From chart-topping being a role model, to flop records and lost follows When I cop product got a month's worth, when I left the spot cops followed If you saw a photo it was only face 'cause I was 85 pounds overweight Mental breakdown, trying to catch a plane, wasn't MadChild, I was only Shane My puppy Lola was my only gang, had to put my baby in a fucking grave I walked away from every brick I laid so I could build a new wall to keep me safe I'm finally someone that I know again I started climbing out the hole I'm in Fighting demons and I know I'll win It's time for me to mend these broken wings Life has been hard, I know it gets better This is a war that I'll fight forever Whoa-ay-oh ay-oh Whoa-ay-oh ay-oh I have my scars, I'll always remember When I lost it all and never surrendered Whoa-ay-oh ay-oh Whoa-ay-oh ay-oh When you fall down and the world's closing in You can get up again, up again Life has been hard, I know it gets better This is a war that I'll fight forever Whoa-ay-oh ay-oh Whoa-ay-oh ay-oh I have my scars, I'll always remember When I lost it all and never surrendered Whoa-ay-oh ay-oh Whoa-ay-oh ay-oh

As a recovering depressive I've come to understand preventing suicide isn't about chasing good feelings, but remembering you still have good to do. You're alive for a reason, don't short change humanity, you still have work to do.
