I owe everything I have now to this song. 7 years ago, I was 22, & this is the song that woke me up, & helped me put down my pill habit I had since the early age of 16. I'm 29 now, turning 30 in November of this year. I haven't heard this song in years. It literally brought tears to my eyes. In the process of getting better for myself, the love of my life & mother to my child decided to up & leave me, after years of taking care of her & knowing nothing else, I lost everything when she did. At the time she was all I never knew. & Still to this day it hurts. When she left me in 2017, after getting clean together, it completely broke me. I lost everything & relapsed on the xanax & percocets again. Drowning myself, once again not wanting to live. I was homeless, but luckily my little brothers took me in. In 2019 that same little brother that took me in relapsed himself, he unfortunately was never able to come back from that, it had taken his life. I was once again in a dark place. Through that most recent dark cloud, I stayed clean in memory of him. & Still to this day I refuse to touch anything but medicinal cannabis. As of rn I'm back living with family. & Although the bipolar depression is a struggle, I refuse to touch another pill. I leave this message for anyone going through it, please hold on, I may not know you personally, but I'm begging you to hang on just a little longer. It might take years, but the Sun does eventually shine again. Thank you for all you've done B.o.B. I've got more love for you then you will ever know!

John Doe represents someone you know and love, but changed in a way that you don't even recognize them anymore, due to drinking and drugs.
But the term "John Doe" in forensics, represents someone who is un-identifiable.

B.o.B never fell off. The music industry doesn't allow artist to make music that have a positive message & that's literally all B.o.B.s music besides a couple songs. He never fell off, he just refused to sell out when the time came for him to do so. So the music industry moved on to the next artist who was willing to play puppet. If you think this man has fallen off then you clearly have not listened to any of his mixtapes. The man is a lyrical legend.

yeaaa... an the girl who was on the accoustic version was frankly better, and was also pretty much a non celebrity, but had a better voice and was better looking in my opinion, therefore would have made this more of a hit and the girl who featured would then become a wider known name in the music industry, therefore bettering her career...

Priscilla's voice is quite similar to Rihanna's in many parts . The first time I heard the song I thought it was Rihanna singing . Great song though !

Back when songs actually had strong meanings.

@tiny5606

I love meanings and storytelling on songs, so I listen to a lot of rap. That being said, I also understand that not all songs have to have deep meanings, and a lot of mainstream artists do music for radio airplay, in short, they also need to make money as musicians.

Not all singers/ songwriters have to write songs with deep meanings

Jordan Gambleton Her name in the porn Industry is Skin Diamond . She did many things that now she is trying to forget . She wanted to participate in this music video just because she wanted people to see what she's being through in the early stages of her ''career'' . She is trying to get past through that now though . Kinda hard if you ask me with all the attention she had in her previous life , but I respect her for trying .
