❤️ 9 year old daughter I love her more then life itself

[@sddragons843]

I miss my pops every single day He was taken away from me Is cherish every memory you have with your fathers i uses to get mad when i was a kid at other kids because they would talk about their fathers taking them fishing or hiking, camping

[@Brandon-bw7oc]

not where tf I come from. I WAS AND ALWAYS WILL BE THERE FOR HIM, I STAYED FREE FOR HIM, EVEN THOUGH I WOULD DO PILLS I WAS ALWAYS THERE NOT GONE FOR MONTHS, YEARS OR NEVER BEING THERE AT ALL. TAKE THAT SHIT TO SOMEONE WHO CAN REALLY RELATE AND I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN THERE AND LOVE HIM. BTW WE STILL LIVE TOGETHER

[@musicplayboy5657]

Bro. I love this. I lost my mother in a car crash at 9 and I lost my dad to covid at 24. I'm 25 and 1 of the things I wish I could tell people is no matter how strict or how much you might be upset with your parents. Always spend as much time as you can with them. Tell them you love them as often as possible. Because they could die tomorrow. I used to be one of those who thought my parents would be around for ever. I took them for granted. So when I see somebody preaching the same thing. To not take your family for granted and cherish them. It brings a smile to my face. I love the music Austin and to anybody who has lost a parent my heart goes out to you.

[@topiclke777]

My condolences man and know that life is precious and what you said is true and thats what I say all the time. Its something that keeps you going and to keep your chin up everyday knowing something is going to happen spend time with that person.

[@anev5875]

Brought tears to my eyes I made one promise in my life and it was to my son the day he was born remember holding him saying that I was not going to let that happen I worked so hard to get a house be the best dad I could be his first Christmas it hit me I'm putting toys together and his mom tells me she had to run out and drop a gift off to some kid I was like OK but thinking what's the rush our son nieces and nephews are here I later find out I bought some dude a 300 dollar pair of Jordan's I leaned there are no guarantees in life I blamed myself he was my life and still is I had to watch another man raise my son he will be 17 in Sept. One more year and no more child support he wants to come to live with me that's the best fathers day gift u can get money and materials will never make me feel like I did when he said that I understand why some fathers just sign there rights over 18 yrs 700 a month was not easy but i am still fighting ty for this song u opened my eyes wider gotta lose some battles to win a war

[@thebeardofgaming81]

Proud father of 2 here. If you kids arent your whole world. then youre a piece of shit. Love you kids, all that you can and dont take them for granted. Theyre a blessing from God, not a burden!

[@jjay88]

The amount of people you just related to.... Please never stop, my guy! You are gifted!

[@joeylewis5490]

I met your pops at your first show in LA and I will attest by far the most down to earth guy I’ve ever talked to. Much love to you and your fam Brodie. Incredible story

[@SammiAKATucker]

Their voices raising like dried grapes in a box. What a bar, a sad one, but what a bar.

[@You.Tweakin]

Keep it up dude proud of you sorry for your loss, spread that love and grow your cash crop field for that family keep that head up

[@LetItBe007]

My dad passed away at the age of 45 when I was 8. This year was the 23rd year of the anniversary of his passing. Anyone who is just now going through something like this, it never heals but it does get a little less painful and those of you who still have your dad or your parents still, appreciate them, love them, and thank them for being there. Miss you mom and dad !

[@earnestneal2459]

Thank you. I lost my dad January of this year, he was and is my motivation. God Bless and Happy Father's day to all the dad's hug your children and tell them you love them. If your father is still around, let him know you appreciate him if you can.

[@OvershotStorm0]

[@jamesnelson5741]

[@theofficialmmi6775]

This song really relatable, my parents divorced in 2008, I really felt every word u spoke! Thank u 4 this song. This song almost drove me 2 tears when u said Todd and Austin come downstairs. This song is way better than what people ever will think! I loved ur structure on this song, I'm an artist as well, and u def hit sum different wit this one. ESPECIALLY wit the structure. My mom was very sick and then in 2019 she left us 2 go home wit the lord and this song really hit me hard. This song really took me 2 the good times me and my family shared when I was little. I know what u mean when u say life changed when ur parents r getting divorced. A lot of people think the parents r the only ones who r suffering but it seems like u just as millions of other kids was affected throughout this struggle. The divorce always sucks and it's really hard but when the parents fight 2 keep a good enough relationship 2 keep positive vibes 2 keep the kids in a good situation is always proof that the kids r loved and I'm happy that u were lucky enough 2 have that, I wasn't but it's ok, it's songs like this that keeps me goin! U gon be on the top one day, and I'ma be right there wit u one day! I love ur music, it's ALWAYS helped me! I been here since Panda and I found older music of urs but my most fav was Myself, I loved it! Thank u 4 this song! Feel free 2 come check out my music I think u might like it, my music u can really relate 2, it's like urs, just not as dope, that's impossible, ur the best in the game! U stand wit Eminem's talent and then some! Thank u Austin! Much Love, MMI

[@_psybaba_]

This guy gives a whole different level of definition to, "started from the bottom now am here".

[@Fosterushka]

I am not crying it's just 😢something pop in my eye

[@donovang8246]

[@dadvidjones]

[@bryanwhite2559]

I loved it really relatable most people knows how it feels been through it too just remember your not alone

[@brettkoski]

The greatest achievement that I could ever strive for is to be exactly like my father. Dad isn't perfect, but damn, he is the best man I've ever known. I should have started listening to him a LOT sooner in life.

[@chopperchopper1418]

When my son was 8 my body was destroyed from 40 years of hard phy labor, no playing catch,golf,throwing a football, hunting, $ 570 play station,now 26 6'5" 260lbs I raised him right, almost better looking then Ali, he came back to me, AK keep making sence. ✌️

[@DeeZee00008]

Keep yo head up, ALWAYS. men don't put thy head down. Keep being great AK.

[@dhuguenin718]

Wow..... That shit hits a spot being a father trying to provide for his son and daughter.... Well done ak. Been a fan for about 4 years. 43 year old dad...for last 13 years. Always hoping I make my kid's proud. Keep killing my man

A lot of people rap, but only the greats can take you on a journey with their words and tell you a story through their rhymes.

Very few rappers can tell a story with lyrics. 🚀

[@DebbyCian]

Oh my Austin that was amazing 👏 😍 What a wonderful tribute to your Dad! Your right he did work his a$$ off for you guys! Being around your family 👪 back then remember very very well the Love they had & they tried so hard to keep it together for the sake of you all. Xo So so proud of you!

He spit barz to my exact schedule with my daughter it gave me chills mon tues is moms house wed thur my house and switch every fri-sun!

[@herrbirnbaum4523]

i didnt know i needed this, thank you AK im a child of divorce too and this really helped me get some more perspective on how things went down on my parents side

[@alkal1ne877]

A child of divorce 😆 that literally sounds like I can't eat that banana cause it's not organic . Seriously kids who are broken from divorce are kids who cry when you drive past McDonald's and tell them there is food at home

[@TheOfficialDoubleK]

@@alkal1ne877 as someone who is a therapist, this Comment is incredibly sensitive. Divorce is a common trigger for a child to need therapy/counseling. You need to gain perspective

[@alkal1ne877]

@@TheOfficialDoubleK Perspective I could appreciate. Also this is YT you're gonna get slandered. Also I didn't target the person directly I just put his words into a reference for all kids who use there parents divorce as an outlet . Not just one, all. I'm what you call a bastard child . I don't sit here and pity people when in the early 90's it was completely different . A person is not a pillow. Stop trying to make it more soft when it's soft enough .
