It's like Every time something happens in my life Jelly is always there to help me through. We Love You Jelly!!!!
Amen! His music's a universal language for us all.
@Paul Owens wtf
This man and the band are the best artists since Metallica came out in the 80's..... I'm 53 tell me I'm not Right
Jelly Roll is the most down to earth musician there is. He can sing, rap and write songs. He can perform all genres of music and perform them well. His lyrics are easy for all of us living in the struggle to relate to because he knows the struggle. Nothing fake about this man...real recognize real.

I hurts to here his songs cuz its so true 👍😪
I would love to hear him do some christian music too
Im only 11 and I understand his songs better than my whole family. His songs just touch my heart
I'm a 62 year old man and his songs hit me deep in my soul.Can honestly say a couple of them actually bring me to tears.If there's any chance I could ever meet him that would be awesome. Love your style from an old man.
I said the same thing to my wife,, his music touches my soul
This beautiful man has made my heart a little whole again....he is the most epic singer I've ever heard, so true so raw that it helps all of us!
Agree 100000%
I've been having a really hard time and this man helps me so much. He's real and his songs hit home with alot of people. I love me some Jelly Roll. Thanks Jelly for always being there...
Hang in there girl
Lyrics:
Drowning in bourbon
Numbing my pain
Fighting with demons, oh Lord
I just wish that they'd go away
There's no light in the day
Don't know how much more I can take, oh no
Afraid of tomorrow
The end of this bottle ain't that far away
I don't know where I went wrong
I've walked a million miles and now I'm so far from home
And I'm begging and pleading for someone to help me
Something won't let me
FInd out where I belong
There's no use in carrying on, oh no
I'm better off alone
At the end of my rope
I'm so close to the edge
In fear of falling
'Cause I know there's no one to catch me down there
So I hide these scars
They say make you a man
Afraid of a feeling
That bring back the demons that's stuck in my head
I don't know where I went wrong
I've walked a million miles and now I'm so far from home
And I'm begging and pleading for someone to help me
Something won't let me
Find out where I belong
There's no use in carrying on, oh no
I'm better off alone
Yes I am
I'm better off alone
Oh, yeah
I know I need you right now
Lord, just somehow
Won't you come and help this old soul
And I know
Yes, I know
I'm better off alone
I'm better off alone
We live in a messed up ass backward world where "WAP" is the top song in the country and Jelly Roll is considered "underground". Think about it. Love this man!!
So bass ackwards
That's because people don't actually listen to music they are trend followers not trend setters. When every song you listen to by a man touches a place that you've been in you're life it just hits a different way.
One is telling kids what to do or telling them some bullshit in some regards and doing a great job of it the other is about something worth a damn so of course that is how this works. Tom Macdonald says it best.
So true ♡
@Darrell Call There was no 💜 or I would have LOVED the comment.
Mackenzie Nicole is such a beautiful soul. Seeing her work with Strange, progress, and stay working hard over the years has been amazing! Shes going to be the best famale artist around for a while once she gets that recognition. Much Love Mackenzie thank you!
👏👏💯💯
This man hits home with every song. I love his music. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talents with the world
Two amazingly heart felt singers... Such a strong combo. Mac is amazing, and her vocals are so on point, and compliment jelly so well. I have to have this play in my lists at least a few times a day.
Even after a year this song is more relatable now than ever before for me personally. The vocals on these two are incredible.
Thanks for being an amazing fan of Jelly Roll he really appreciate your love and support ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. You were chosen among the lucky fans to have a private conversation with him and we don’t want you to miss this chance and this is a great opportunity for all jelly roll fans
Their voices is so damn good together. Love it
You guys!!! My brother @Lazyrooster wrote this song! He’s been writing songs since we were kids. This is his first song to get picked up! I’m in tears because I couldn’t be more proud of how this turned out ♥️
I know you might be surprised to get a text from me but this is real and I want say thank you for your love and support over the time❤️❤️ i appreciate
Where are you streaming from?
Katy Casey I wasn’t sure what Nami was but they have a Clip-Share channel and I’m following them now. Thanks for that info luv
That’s so great. It’s a beautiful song. Touched my heart.
Love it. I'm a member of Nami. I actually run suicide hotline I've heard on several occasions now, how much this artist has helped them. It's awesome that your brother wrote the song :-)
Are you fr
My God every song of jelly roll speaks to me. Literally feels like he's living my life. One of the main reasons why keep pushing through is because of his music
I swear Jelly’s voice gets better with time, he killed it on this. Not going to lie I’m starting to prefer him singing over rapping, you feel the pain that much more and I’m a sucka for the music
I totally agree💪🏿💯🙏🏿
I couldn’t agree with this enough!!! I love his rapping don’t get me wrong. But his voice hits ya deep!!
I love both but i love when he raps and sings about everything hes feeling and its personal. Hes one of those people who makes u feel it when he sings the blues, it really hits u in the soul.
Don’t matter if he sing or rap , his words are like hands around my soul
What a beautiful voice this young lady has. Compliments Jelly's southern raspyness really well. Great song also.
Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support👍💖
This man's one of my favorites. These songs are so relatable especially on those tough days or months
As a up north black city dude his music translates pain and struggle to so many cultures. I truly appreciate this guy
As always, I dont even need to hear it, I know its straight talent. Jelly can't miss lately. This man is the definition of "artist".
It's not "when I'm in my pain", it's: "numbing my pain"!!! And I only got that far reading your lyrics, I say "your lyrics since you're rewriting the song or obviously not listening very well, stick to whatever you do besides being jelly's narrator!
You got that right frfr he can't miss he's found his target audience and fucking nailing it man so much of his music is relatable in one way or another
Can’t say that any better my man!!!! 100%. Facts
@JESSEJAMES420 ol Ly
the diversity of his music is unmatchable
"Afraid of the feelings that brings back the demons that's stuck in my head"
It seems like every time I'm struggling with something, JR puts it in song form. Thank you 🙏
I have enjoyed every song jelly roll has made with this sound over his rap...man is a true artist
He really feels it. The vocals are honest and gritty non apologetic raw. I love it!!
I know you might be surprised to get a text from me but this is real and I want say thank you for your love and support over the time❤️❤️ i appreciate
Where are you streaming from?
You bring back real music that touches the soul! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Love this and love Mackenzie she killed it
I know you might be surprised to get a text from me but this is real and I want say thank you for your love and support over the time❤️❤️ i appreciate
Where are you streaming from?
Your music is truly healing. Whenever life kicks me into the dirt, I look to your music for healing. Thank you Jelly for turning life’s struggles into medicine.
Dude is the truth, he capture the emotional level of how I am feeling, and I often hear the same thing from other fans
It's getting scary how close your recent songs are perfectly fitting my life in every way, I sent save me to my mom she said its like I wrote it. Bro I just recently found my faith and I'm praying for both of us and everyone like us! Much love and please dont stop you're music is really helping right now to make me feel like I'm NOT alone
💯
Hey man, just wanted to check in on you? How are you holding up?
Jelly Roll's music has had such a profound effect on my life every time I turn around I find another song that hits far to close to home. jelly thank you so much for allowing us to get a glimpse of who you are and what you struggle with because for me it has helped me realize I am not alone in this cruel messed up life.
I love her voice it's that 2000 grunge sound that I love
JELLY ROLL IS AN AMAZING ARTIST. HIS SONGS HIT CLOSE TO MY HEART. HIS SINGS ARE UPLIFTING BETTER THAN A THERAPIST OR A CLOSE FAMILY MEMBER. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK JELLY ROLL LOVE YOU MAN
After 3 abusive relationships I decided to stay single. I have been alone for over 10 years. I've grown so accustomed to it being just me that I no longer know how to share my life with another person. As much as I want to at times... Its a lonely existence but better than having someone rip your heart out!
Me too girl
Raven I understand how you feel I was cheated on not beat on but it hurts I feel you listen to the song by Salem fall out of love I hope and pray life is better for you now
Amen!!!! I’m in a narcissistic relationship now and I’m biding my time. He thinks he’s the boss and God and master. I can play the game a little longer and when I m done he’ll be wondering what happened and where the hell I am.
Man
So sorry sweetheart!!! Bless you
As a recent listener to this artist, I must admit every song has a deep connection to my current/previous situation. I suffer from depression, as, I'm sure all of us do to some degree but his music, especially the song SAVE ME, is a song that I listen to daily. Thx Jelly Roll...keep up the good work!
This man totally has found the reason he's still living. Here for us struggling wit demons. Much love to you and yours 💕💜💙
I've found a reason to live
Thank you
Yes I have found something that's working
Man yall should definitely do some more songs together. The way both your voice harmonized together. Was so amazing. And give me goosebumps no matter how many times I hear it.
My wife died last month at the far too young age of 42, and Jelly Roll is one of the few artists that is helping me get through this shit show of a year. Thank you big homie, and I can't wait until tours are a thing again so I can hug you and thank you...
@Alexa Haskew prayers to you as well, I can't say it gets easier or better, but it gets more manageable little by little. Keep good friends and family around you, as this is the time you probably need it most. Just keep your head up! 💜💚🖤
@Joshua Tenant yes, I definitely feel like the song “save me” was written just for my husband. He was sick for so long, but it breaks my heart thinking he felt that way. He was my hero and a true worrier!! I’m so lost without him here, but thankful he’s no longer in pain. Prayers to you!
@Alexa Haskew the Save Me video dropped and my wife loved it, she sadly didn't have a chance to delve into his other stuff or hear the new one, but it ended up feeling like she was talking to me from her coma through him. I'm almost a year out now and everything is still just so strange...
I also lost my husband at 37 last month. I can’t believe this is my life now. He loved Jelly roll!
Thank you Joshua.that meant a lot.im so sorry for your loss.its hard losing some one who you loved with your heart n soul
Damn Bruh, you are undeniably one of the best artists in the universe regardless the genre of music. A soul wise beyond your years. This is transcendental music.
It's great to have an artist that understands depression anxiety addiction and the struggles of life when I listen to his music he always motivates me and reminds me through his songs everything will be okay
I just recently found this great artist and I am hooked ! He sings from his heart. It is so obvious.I'm excited for what comes up next.
Man Jelly Roll has the most soothing voice. I absolutely love him. So much passion and realness behind all his music. What a blessing to this world. ❤
Your voices are beautiful together. Badass Jelly🤟🏻🤟🏻💜
Jelly, as always, you killed it. Mackenzie, damn girl, you got some pipes. Y'all's voices mesh so well together. Love this. ✌🏻😘🤘🏻
Played this track about 25 times in a row. Can't get enough. Jelly and Mackenzie are 👌 What a perfect collab.
Just amazing. Everything this man does seems to hit home more and more with every track!!!! #theraputicmusic
Jill in
@Jelly Roll can't wait for October 16th you know how to make songs to hit the soul I love Man thank you for everything bubba
His voice IS LIFE ❤️❤️❤️
Facts Jon!
You have done it again ... Its 🔥🔥 🔥.. God bless you an the fam ...
There voices together are just ❤
The words so many of us are afraid to say......you sing them brother. You uplift so many of us who are broken, hurt, and lost. You heal wounds, you make the pain go away, and you help us to find our way in the darkest of days or nights. Your music literally..... saved my life brother. Helped me to see that there was light at the end of the tunnel. You are an angel, god sent to the people to lead us out of our gutters. The broken follow you, to the end of the earth brother 💯💪
I dont care who you are.. This man is heaven sent!!! His music speaks to me. God is good and so is recovery!!!
You have helped me through some deep depression and I am thankful for your music.
I have played this song on repeat since the other day when it came out. Absolutely nailed but I have been feeling for the last few months. Now I feel like I can go through it and get out of it. Jelly roll and Mackenzie Nicole are magic together . Beautiful song . One love
I listen to Jelly Roll everyday more than 10 times, back to back on Clip-Share & Spotify. He definitely brightens my spirits in a warmful way.
🐐🐐🐐
Congrats
I cant beleive my two favorite artists collaborated! And they have a Christian feel! Also McKenzie is giving off Avril Lavin3 vibes, anyone else see it? 💜🙏🤟😁
And another one , this is straight up from the soul, this mans music allows you to forgive yourself even if only for the moment, his truths are medicating 🙏
Much love and Respect Jelly Roll
Amazing as always!! Always love reading all the comments and realizing how many people including myself are truly touched by your music 🎶 ❤ Thank you both!! Much love and blessing to y'all
His voice through my headphones 💕🔥💯 so peaceful and ministering to my soul.
I'll be real, I shed some tears with this one y'all! How many people did this hit home with? So much pain, sorrow, and soul! Felt this one, like many others, down to my core! I am not disappointed with any of these new tracks! I knew I wouldn't be but damn I am feeling all of these new bangers y'all! Mackenzie was an amazing choice for this song as well! She has a beautiful voice and she's got soul just like Jelly! I can't wait to get this new album! 😍😍🖤🖤😜😜💯💯👏👏🥃🥃
@Daniel I don't think it really matters if your a male or a female! Men and women both can have soul and Yes Jelly has more experience and has been doing this longer but he's only 34! I don't think age has anything to do with having soul either! Haven't you ever heard the expression "old soul"?! Tons of singers and rappers, who Are young, put alot of soul into their music! I am a huge fan of Jelly and have been following him from the very start! I don't think it's fair to discredit any other artist though! Jelly is amazing and deserves every ounce of praise and respect he gets but I don't believe other artists should be discredited or talk about as if they aren't or cannot be just as good as he is! He's a very humble guy and I think he would agree! 🤷 I understand where you're coming from whole heatedly but I cannot say that I agree with everything you've said! Also I don't think you should judge an artist off of one song! Have you ever heard any of her other music?
Yeah she's got a beautiful voice but I don't think she's got a soul like jelly seeing jellys a man and you know he raps and all that stuff comes straight from has heart you know her voice sounds very good and it might come from the heart but she don't rhyme and she don't do country rap in do it hardcore like ✔️🎶🎼jelly roll does cuz he's straight up bad to the motherfucken ‼️✔️🎼 bone‼️🎶🔥🎻 and nothing really compares to his latest song same old ass hold That's dope just like let's get. Lost as many other songs that he did with other artists 🎻🎼🎶he's the 💎🌠🧐🎤🎹🎟️🎙️🎤✔️🌲🌲🌲☝🏻🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🤔🌳🍀🍂🍁🍂🍂🍁🍁🍁🍂🌲🌳🌳🌳🌳🥃🍸🍻🍺🍷🍾🍹🥂she's like👏🏻26♥️♦️✡️🔯♠️♣️☮️
Brother you ok, you help us when we bleed, but do you have someone to talk to yourself? The more you bring out the more you let us in. You are loved by many and you make the difference in so many peoples time here. Thank you for all you have done and shown in your growth. Please keep your head up and speak up if you need to! #firststepistalking!❤️
He's awsome!!
@Rachelle Hard yes ma'am you are so very right! I know several people but there is only a couple of them that I trust with my deepest darkest secrets.
@Lisa Beatty its hard to find someone these days that u can trust whole heatedly to open up too, not have ur shit repeated, and to not be judged by.. I'm ALWAYS there for ANYONE who needs to talk.. I don't judge cuz who TF am I to judge anyone when I'm myself by far not perfect and in my 37 yrs of life there isn't much that I have not been thru and experienced first hand.
I hurting Joe
We are all here for you Jelly!!!!
I can't tell you how many times I turn to your music when I'm in a bad place. Just the fact that I know there's at least one person who has felt the exact way I'm feeling, helps make the battle a little easier.
God damn i needed this Jelly. Seems like u always release the perfect songs at just the right time when I need them! Love ya brotha thank you for your music Jelly
THIS IS THE MAN! EVERY SONG HE SPEAKS TO ME AS HE WAS WITH ME AND SAW AND HEARD WHAT HAPPENED! LOVE YOU UNBELIEVABLE
Such such a good song writing and singer. Seriously he touches my sanity...chills though my spirit....
I'm 100% in love with his music 🎶
Jelly Roll is such a talented artist its unreal. I have nothing but respect for you Jelly your music is so therapeutic and I listen to it everyday.. Thank you for sharing your God given talent with all of your fans!
I just heard Jilly roll at age of 58 and I listing to him every day now.
Their voices together is amazing
This song.. Jelly just keeps getting better!! Awesome man and relate to a lot of songs.
Hello ma'am I'm glad you'd love♥️ my songs. I never expected much but with your kind out there, I'm great!!
Thanks for your massive love and support all through this time's
Where are you supporting from?
Jelly you hit point everytime. You sing the truest words. Words that everyone else is thinking but don't want to say. My 30 year old daughter just got out of prison it's rough especially since she watched me spend so much time there. Your music has really helped us connect for the first time in a very long time. So I just want to say Thank You from the bottom of my heart.
Been battling depression and homelessness your music has always helped me you seem to always come out with songs that relate to how I’m feeling at the time much love jelly from Illinois
How can I not set a reminder for this? Anything Jelly Roll drops is straight fire.....
Or set an alarm on your phone
Agree 100%
Awesome song great job Brother love it
It should come up as an option
You should be able to now bubba
You have been on repeat ALL DAY in my house today. I am most definitely going threw it and I honestly believe u are saving me from doing stupid stupid things. Thank u. Never stop what u are doing.. PLEASE. ❤️🙏🏻 THANK U.
Jelly your music has truly helped me through so much! Much love & respect for you bubba
I can’t stop playing my jelly roll playlist all day long, it’s like listening to my life...Love you Jelly!!
The hook and jellys verse is so magnetic it draws you in to more of what the track has to offer 🔥🔥👈💪💯💯🍻🍻
Wow ! Jellys music keeps getting more intense lyrically ! It's unbelievable how someone can create something so powerful and that reaches all of us like minded folks. We love you J and if anyone hasn't seen you live theyre missing the fuck out !! Its mind blowing to see you live. My homie Jason Birmingham opened up for you last summer at Zydeco in Birmingham. We appreciate you Jelly
Man, when Jelly comes in at the end and joins Mackenzie, gave me chills. Their voices compliment eachother so well
This song is murdered front beginning to end! They both kill it and unbelievable instruments
Everything about this is the definition of beauty.
Always killing it jellyroll and you miss the voice of a goddess you two perfect harmony
When i feel like im not good enough i listen to jellyroll cause he speaks the truth and his music is deep and passionate much respect for him thx for making banging music keep them coming ✊💯🔥💩
Natural raw talent, love his sing "Save Me" he is one talented Man.
This isn’t music this is art
Jelly roll and his whole crew are awesome 👏
This guy can rap, sing country, rock n roll, he can freaking sing! And his lyrics touch so deeply whether one can relate or not
Hes a blues man. Through n through
I swear this guys music gets better and better with every track. We appreciate the grind and the videos every Thursday
Dude its insane that you can literally rap your ass off and turn around and release such soulful music
I Love you guys! U are such a blessing to my struggles in life
I feel like you know what I've been through. Love all your songs but this one hits me hard. Love it!
How are there 9 down votes before the song dropped? This man is an artistic genius and to not even listen before disliking his song is just idiotic.
Prob bots aswell
Bcuz the ppl in Chapelhill Tennessee are haters thts why...!!! He lives up the street frm my dad he is a sweet heart and has been thru so much in his life.. It REALLY shows in his songs... Listen to his song he made w his daughter Bailey it explains a lot
Gotta have your haters too. No one is complete without the haters.keeps you on toes.
jellys music comes from his soul, you can feel it. i get goosebumps every song he makes. also i discovered Mackenzie like a week ago, damn shes awesome!
🤘🏾 Jelly really knows how to make those songs that hit home, every song has a deep message!!!!!
He's definitely one the tops of my play lists his life feelings tell the music I would say he inspired a lot of people 👍
Straight to the Soul, man. Beautiful song.
Absolutely loving the new music jelly! Your music, Helps me get through each and every day
His music just makes my day better its Jelly Roll everyday
Yes yes!!!
Yes sir
Ruben Rodriguez 💯💯💯
Depend on yourself,not others.Forget them thank you 🙏
Mine too!
This man here was sent by God to save the lost souls on earth
Right on yo... A man sent to complete darkness.. The tombs of sin that seem impossible to escape
Truest thing I've heard in a long, long time
Big fact!
@Katherine Cronin my brother/ best friend in the world he was my life guide I was 11 when he married my sister I'm 53 now you do the math he taught me everything I know... well my sister died in 2017 and he listened to this song constantly he spread my incredible sister at all the lighthouses from Florida to Maine then he took a vacation out West he spread the last of her remains in the yard where they were married he called his Dad and said okay Dad that was the last thing I had to do... he saw his grandson graduate and jumped out of a plane with the kid... well if a dude has a soulmate he was mine long story short he never made it home... I can't even listen to this song yet.... I love it but bust up crying when I hear it... love you David Merritt I'll see you on the other side brother 💜
I agree 💯 I'm so lost and everytime I hear his songs it hits so hard
Jelly Roll! I am a huge fan of these type of songs, similar to Save Me. This musical and lyrical style really speak to more people and I hope to see much more similar content published soon! Keep on keeping on!
He sings and raps from the bottom of his soul and has felt alot of our pain n put it to the pad with a pen genius
Straight talent! Great song!
Love her voice!!! I'm so right there with this song too Jelly.. please dont ever give up on life! Your music and the new voices your bringing are gonna touch so many people and they will know we arent alone! Much love!!

That he definitely is
Jelly Rolls voice is so damn soothing 😍❤️🌹🎼
I don't think you can write a bad song ..your so deep and so real..thank you ..i can't listen to your songs with out crying.they hit my heart like a brick
This song, the first time I heard it, I had to replay like 5 times cause it really hit home for me... All the Lyrics.... Every minute of everyday is serious struggle for me fighting with trying to deal with my horrible isolation issues due to my bipolar disorder n I'm also battling severe PTSD as well. Everyday is one more baby step closer to my survival n this song made me feel like, "There is someone else out there that gets it n knows exactly how I'm feeling all day everyday." Thank you
