This was a poem written by Manny Rosen, a friend of Brown's, after Rosen's daughter passed away due to an OD. James Brown added "this is a revolution of the mind" to the lyrics towards the end of the song as a reference to his live double album from the Apollo in 1971. Thought those were interesting facts about the song, so figured I'd share.

Now it’s been 3 years since i got clean and i still cry when i hear them cus i was so hopeless back then on the street dead broke toxic man in my life, then a overdose on the 9.12.2017 made me go cold turky on 11.12.2017 and since then i’m clean. I’m happy have an apartment and a boyfrend who loves me uncondisinaly. I hope you are all staying safe and i hope if you’re getting of drugs stay strong you can do it!

My name is Gabe, im a 23 yo recovering heroin addict. I live in AZ where this shit is a plague. Too many have been lost everywhere. I can only say that I must stay sober for not just myself, but for my fellows. Just the other day I ran into a young man at a gas station that was in deep. I gave him $20 dollars to get some food in his stomach. I gave him a hug and told him I care. I was overcame with emotion because I was looking at myself. So I continue to never look down on anyone still struggling. We can't save everyone, but we cant give up. ✌☝❤

I'm only 21 now, I have an uncle serving 15 years fed time over cocaine after serving 4 years state time, I have another uncle who was murdered over dope and cash before I was born, both of my granddads were alcoholics and died young before I was born .. Almost all my cousins on one side of the family have been or are currently hooked on Opiates, and I already know 3 guys I knew from grade school that have been shot and killed over dope or gang violence.

Well really if you got pharmaceutical heroin you could function no trouble with x amount daily. Crack is bit more impossible to do so strange they managed to get it into suburbs of certain places. Glad it spread in the more upper class areas. Aimed was precise. But went to more fancy areas. Really if on heroin biggest problem is cut with / by idiots. If go collect daily dose work and no dramas. But only few countries have decided to make heroin safe. Safer than street. No? Bad yes.

I've been off and on for over 50 years from a foolish teenager to late adulthood. I was functional but forfeited my soul to Heroin. I made my bed and laid in it. It's a lifelong struggle as it goes, but today, I have my divine gift of life (but broke), know who I am, and believe wholeheartedly that all things are possible without dope.

Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. Prophet, Poet, Visionary, Musician. James Brown was a man of many gifts. There was just so much to do and too little time.
