If you know anyone addicted to fentanyl or opioids... the lyrics in this song will be felt in every direction of your body. 

This song was recorded in Nashville, at Straight Up Sound, in Johnny Neel's backyard, with top tier musicians to be certain. Mr. John Conley, jumps straight into the song with a funky bass beat as he duets with himself playing lead guitar and carrying both instruments throughout the track. Mr. Neel is methodically sharp on the Hammond B3 sprinkling 70's funk on every note John lays down. The late, great Kenneth "BuBu" Robinson can be found tickling the ivories and recreating the last beats of a heart throughout on the drums.

The fact that we have been conditioned into thinking that there is a pill for everything, via the advertising industry...whether it be an ad while you are streaming music on any platform, watching television, listening to the radio,  you are constantly being inundated with a solution/cure... and it goes on 24 hours a day.  Pills are at the point of normalization now, and perhaps that's why America has found itself in a state of crisis.

And that is why this song had to be written...

Since 1999, drug overdoses, have killed over 1 million people and that number is rising daily.

Over 100,000 people die from drug overdoses per year.


Opioids are accountable for 7 out of 10 deaths in America.

in the 1990s, big pharma began an aggressive advertising campaign, marketing pain medication under the guise that opioid use could "not" lead to addiction. We all know this was a false claim. So it can be said, that the first wave of the opioid epidemic could have been avoided altogether with THE TRUTH. 

And here's some hard facts, not everyone dies from opioids, but everything around them will. 

Some addicts children will enter the foster care system, which we all know is Russian Roulette at best. 

Job loss is almost inevitable and with no way to support your addiction, many will become a lifetime member of the prison for profit system. 

Some have received the diagnosis that they will live with AIDS or any other blood born pathogen that breaks down the immune system for the rest of their lives due to addiction and the sharing of needles. 

When really, all they need to do is remove any addictive pharmaceutical advertisements.  The only information that should be handed out should be by the words of your physician, IF you have a condition that requires it .  

It is my personal belief that the removal of all pharmaceutical advertising would reduce America's drug/addiction problem drastically.

If you've lost a loved one due to the fentanyl pandemic, I know that absolutely nothing I could ever say could erase that pain. But I hope this message has let you know that you are not alone and that someone is fighting for you. I hope these words find their way to the white house and that advertising reform takes place and that Americans can begin living again instead of dying.

If this song resonated within you in any shape, form or fashion, please share now. Help me spread this strong message that could potentially save a life.

There is a saying in Nashville, Tennessee..."It all begins with a song..." and I almost lost my son nine times in 2 years to this beast, and my father died three days after beginning a new medication... and I could not rest on my laurels for one more minute without raising my voice. My son survived and that is the greatest blessing to me as a mother.

I too, fell to opioids for a 4-year stint of my life and I'm not sure to this day how I survived it... yet here I am, 23 years later, still kicking. I can NOT relate to the person I used to be and glad that I don't remember it all...but EVERYTHING I did survive, is about to be laid at your feet for an offering of experiences and reflection, to let you know that it is never too late to let drugs go and get to living...you would kick another person's ass that was trying to do what you are doing to yourself.  I BELIEVE IN YOU!!!

The Medicine Sample...

This is really more of a rockabilly tune than a rock tune but they didn't give me that option...it's a tale about a boy who puts hands on a girl... and he's going to have to answer to her entire family and his own about it.
