Sully Erna - My Light

[@timesuprepo2]

Sully Erna Aaron Lewis and Ivan Moody have greatly impacted my life the past 3 years. When lyrics speak to you it's deep man.

[@dawnmichele6847]

Amen and Amen 🙏🕊️🙏

[@cherylroller957]

To complete my Bachelor's in English, I wrote a paper on the raw beauty of Sully's lyrics. Pure poetry, and I would listen to Ivan Moody sing the ingredients off of a cereal box. LOL He's a brilliant song writer too!

[@Yarnover_PullThrough]

I completely feel the same. Sending everyone love and light.

[@gloriabonia5173]

You must be young to just have discovered them! Good taste in music! They are all fantastic

[@khristycvengros4771]

Totally agree. I speak my emotions through music and his music touches one’s soul. ❤️🙏

[@reneetomlinson6295]

Sully's voice is so soothing in this song. What's not to love?

[@WARBIRD13]

Im a combat veteran w severe PTSD and multiple head injuries. My life since returning home so many years ago had still been a rough road. Many times i have thought of suicide and giving in to the darkness. This song touches me in so many ways. It gives me hope, it makes me want to tell the whole world how much i cherish my family. And my service dog Trigger who i cant possibly imagine NOT being w me. If this somehow gets to Sully, i just want to say thank you. Ive enjoyed your music since the early 90's and i will always. Matter of fact i want this song played at my surfing funeral. I want my ashes scattered in the line up at Jax Bch Fla at the north side of the pier with my wife, kids, and grand kids all in the water, on boards, in a circle for a celebration not a mourning. So thank you Sully, i appreciate it.

[@CarolCorder]

Thank you for your sacrifice, service and selflessness. I salute you. 🌺🇺🇸🤗♥️

[@jennifersilsby6095]

You can just hear the Love for his daughter! After reading his book, this song shows the depth of change his daughter brought into his life. He is a master songwriter and musician who puts such emotions into his work! He knew at such a young age what he wanted to do with his life. I for one am grateful he achieved it!! Love Sully & Godsmack 💜

I miss my Christine my angel girl, forever 18! Through your music Sully, on days when I want to give up, I am lifted back up! This song is so beautiful! Huge Godsmack fan, as my daughter also was! Keeping her alive in my heart with your music is my tribute to her! Love your babies, life is short!

[@michaelsams1363]

As a single father of an absolutely amazing little girl, this touched me deep down in my soul. You see, I raised my baby girl pretty much by myself since the day she was born, as her 'egg donor' wanted no part of being a parent but every part of being a junkie. She abandoned us when Journey was 8 months old so I took on the responsibility and absolute pleasure of raising her by myself. We've been to rock bottom and back over the last 8 years and that has created an amazing relationship between us. Well, in May of 2019, I was offered a REALLY good job opportunity, that paid well but unfortunately, accepting the offer meant being out of state for weeks at a time. After it being just the two of us for so long, I was having a REALLY hard time deciding what to do and after fighting with myself for a few days, I made the toughest decision of my life and accepted the offer but only because my mother agreed to keep Journey for me so I could go and do what I knew had to be done to make a better life for my baby girl. I came home yesterday, to spend Father's Day with her and mom and just now heard this song for the first time, while my baby girl was sitting right next to me. After listening for maybe a minute, I restarted the song & asked her to stop what she was doing and listen to it very carefully. When she saw my eyes "leaking", she instantly knew why daddy wanted her to listen and our already amazing bond became a little bit stronger. Thank you so much for that Sully Erna. This will FOREVER be our song 💞

[@siddarthd2087]

That's amazing 👍🏻

[@candacedawnholloway4615]

I love all of his songs ever since like 1995, I didn't listen for a while but then I started listening again. He is really handsome too, wish this was actually about me! Lol

[@PrincessMopar]

I dedicate this song to my miracle girl. She's my all, my light, my everything. She helped me get through some tough times. While pregnant I almost lost her due to Domestic Violence. The sperm-donor (my ex) tried killing me, and I suffered significant damage not only to my body, but my mind and soul. My daughter was born prematurely, and spent time in the NICU, but like her momma, she's a fighter. Seven years later the two of us are happy, healthy and safe. 💜

[@kw7103]

Sorry you had to go through that.

[@karenstewart4779]

The theory that says "What doesn't kill u makes u stronger" is true. Especially for u and ur daughter. I'm glad u two overcame the tragedy. Ur alive and happy. That ex will get justice one day.

I don’t have regrets in my life but one massive disappointment I will always carry is the one time I would of had a chance to see my favorite band and my Number 1 favorite musician in concert.

Speechless... Sully Erna is maybe the greatest musician of the 21st century. Regardless if it's his solo work or his work with his other band, genius is too few of a word to a man like him. In terms of music of course.

Sully's music has real meaning and positivity to it but I never hear it played by many people or on the radio. Not very cool,so much negativity out there and I say these are some pretty positive songs

I just shared this song that I dearly love as a tribute to my late Mother, who passed, peacefully in her home, 6 years yesterday on that date in 2018, right before my birthday. Her name was Trula. I have no siblings or children. I know my mother was one of the many great Mom's GOD made. I know it was written for the love of a child. And I know she would love it. The lyrics, the melody, the video in itself makes me smile, and I know it would have her smiling too with happy tears in her eyes, just like mine now. 🥹🥲 My Mom was My Light. I was struggling with what I wanted to say and share in her memory, and this was as close to perfect as I could get. Thank you, Sully, for writing this beautiful song and the music, I'm sure, too, and the others who helped create it. I can see her clapping along and asking me to play it again! ❤️🥹🥲🕊🥰🌸 ~KIM

And here I am, I never thought I'd say, If ever I could live my life again, I'd live it your way.

I'll love you all my life, I'll love you everyday. (Yeah, Yeah. Love you everyday!) Under the light you shine on me, I promise I will be there for you baby, (I never wanna leave you anyway, you've become my light) I cross my heart that's in your hands, That I hope you will always be my best friend. I promise I will be there 'til the end. You've become my light. You've become my light. You've become my light. You've become my light. You've become my light.
