Craig David - Rise & Fall ft. Sting (Official Video)

[@derishapillay3784]

I will never forget this time of my life. I was a kid, about 9 or 10. My mum had a nervous break down and was admitted to a Psych hospital. This song just came out and it would play on our local radio station almost every night. We lived with my gran and she helped raise me. My mum was a single parent. When I hear this song, it flashes back to that very very dark time where I barely understood what was happening. I look back now and I am so incredibly proud of my mother. Years on and she has never relapsed, in fact - she came back so much harder! My rock and my everything. My gran is late - 6 years now. Life - as an adult myself, is incredibly difficult, I commend my mother for how she tackled life! Rise & Fall ONLY to rise again!
