It's OK.

look kid I ain't got no Illusions the world's a cold unforgiving bastard and it's not going to change people are born they struggle and then they die that's the cruel truth I've seen too much lived through too much to sugarcoat it for you you think you're the only one who's been chewed up and spit out by this world you think you're the only one who's felt like everything is just one big sick joke hell I've been there I've been down in that pit where every damn breath feels like a battle and every step feels like

you're dragging a mountain I've watched Friends die seen good people turn monsters and I've lost everything that ever meant a a damn to me so don't come to me looking for some pretty words or false hope but here's the thing kid even in the depths of all that Darkness even when you're at your lowest there's something you got to hold on to life is pain life is suffering but it's also about finding something anything to fight for I know it sounds cliche as hell but it's the goddamn truth you got to find your reason your

purpose no matter how small or insignificant it might seem to anyone else because that's what keeps you going when everything else falls apart you think I haven't wanted to just give up to lie down and let the world take me I've had those nights staring up at the sky wondering what the point of it all is and you know what sometimes there is no point sometimes the only reason to keep going is because you're too damn stubborn to quit because if you quit if you let this world break you then and it's one and [

__ ] that [ __ ] letting this godforsaken world have the last laugh I've seen the bottom kid I've seen the kind of Darkness that swallows you whole and leaves you empty but even in that void there's a flicker of light it's faint it's weak but it's there you've got to CL to that you've got to fight for that because as long as there's a breath left in your body as long as your heart's still beating you've got a chance a chance to turn things around to make something out of the mess that life throws

at you it's not about being happy all the time or even most of the time it's about without finding those moments of Peace those small victories that remind you why you're still here maybe it's a sunrise or the sound of rain or a kind word from a stranger whatever it is hold on to it let it fuel you let it give you the strength to keep pushing forward no matter how broken you feel and don't think for a second that you're alone in this we all carry our scars our burdens some of us just hide

them better than others but there's a strength in that too in knowing that you're not the only one fighting this battle there's a Brotherhood in suffering a kinship in pain We're All in This Together even if it doesn't always feel feel that way yeah life's a [ __ ] it's unfair it's cruel and it doesn't give a damn about your dreams or your plans but you can't let it beat you you can't let it turn you into someone you're not hold on to your Humanity even when it feels like it's slipping through your fingers hold

on to the things that make you who you you are the things that make life worth living no matter how small or insignificant they might seem you've got a fire inside you kid I can see it even if you can't it's what's kept you going this far and it's what's going to keep you going when things get even tougher don't let that fire die feed it nurture it let it burn as bright as it can because as long as you got that fire as long as you've got that will to fight you got a chance

and sometimes that's all you need you're stronger than you think stronger than you know the world can beat you down it can break you but it can't take that strength away that's yours and it's what's going to carry you through the darkest times so stand up dust yourself off and keep fighting because as long as you're still breathing as long as your heart's still beating you've got a chance to make things better and that's worth holding on to you know I had a friend once a good man tough as nails but with a heart too

big for this world he fought in battles that would have broken most men came out the other side every time but he had his demons just like we all do one night he looked at me and said I am done man I can't keep fighting I told him the same thing I'm telling you now I told him he was stronger than he knew that he had a fire inside him that wouldn't let him quit he didn't listen he gave up and it broke my heart to see him go like that but it also taught me

something it taught me that giving up is the easy way out it's the path of least resistance but it's not the path of the warrior the Warrior's path is hard it's brutal but it's also the path that leads to something greater it's the path that leads to Redemption to finding a purpose even in the midst of all the pain so when you feel like you can't go on when the weight of the world feels like it's going to crush you remember that you know you're not alone remember that there's a strength inside you that's greater

than any challenge you'll face and remember that giving up is never an option not for a warrior not for someone who's been through what you've been through you've got a story kid a story that's still being written and yeah it's got its share of dark chapters of moments that'll make you question everything but it's also got moments of Triumph of victory of finding light in the darkest places and those moments are worth fighting for they're worth the pain the struggle the heartache because they're what make life worth living don't let the darkness win don't let

the world beat you down down you've got too much fight in you for that you've got too much strength too much fire and as long as you've got that as long as you're willing to keep pushing forward you've got a chance a chance to turn things around to find your purpose to write your own story when you wake up tomorrow and the day looks just as Bleak as the last remember this conversation remember that you got a choice you can either lie down and let the world trample over you or you can stand up and

fight back and I don't mean just with fists or anger but with every bit of willpower you got left with every small Act of defiance every moment of kindness you can muster even when it feels like you've got nothing left to give those small victories add up they build a foundation that no storm can wash away you've got to believe in something bigger than the pain bigger than the struggles maybe it's a dream you buried long ago maybe it's a person who needs you or maybe it's just the simple Act of proving the world wrong

whatever it is find it hold on to it and let it drive you because as long as you're still breathing as long as there's still a beat in your heart you've got a chance to change your story and that's something no amount of Darkness can ever take away from you it's okay to feel like [ __ ] it's okay to feel lost to feel like the world's against you but it's not okay to give up it's not okay to let the world win you're a warrior and warriors don't quit they fight they endure and they

come out stronger on the other side and you will too stand up dust yourself off and keep fighting because you're not alone in this we're we're all in this together and we're all fighting our own battles but together we're stronger together we can face anything and together we can find a way through the darkness so don't give up not now not ever because you're a warrior and warriors never quit [Music] [Music]
