Seems to have struck a chord with the little guy



I've been selling my soul
Working all day
Overtime hours
For bull**** pay
So I can sit out here and waste my life away
Drag back home and drown my troubles away

It's a damn shame
What the world's gotten to
For people like me and people like you
Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
But it is, oh, it is
Living in the new world
With an old soul
These rich men north of Richmond
Lord knows they all just want to have total control
Wanna know what you think
Wanna know what you do
And they don't think you know, but I know that you do
Cause your dollar ain't ****, and it's taxed to no end
'Cause of rich men north of Richmond

#1 on I-tunes. Don't think it's a stretch to say this guy has struck a chord with many "old souls" in our nation. Great vocal sound and heart felt lyrics. I don't know alot about him other than he recently has turned to God, after depression and chemical dependencies. Things move so fast in the digital age that it is crazy.

Not just the MSM who is mad….lots of bog standard GOP types don't like anti-Regime songs.

You are never supposed to question the rulers north of Richmond.

Leftist thugs are outraged. Why do they hate this guy so much? Did he speak out against child sex-trafficking?

Well yes, he did. The lyrics call out politicians that hung out on Jeffrey Epstein's island.

This song illustrates the reality that wokeness fixes not a single problem of ordinary people. It attends solely to the vanities of societal elites. Artificial problems are easily solved. Just declare victory and conjure up another piece of nonsense to justify the virtue signaling, while studiously ignoring the issues which matter most to the most. It is truly amazing how renown one can become for caring about mankind, while serving no man in particular.

At some point, social contract must address the common good, or ordinary people will lose interest in it.

This young man seems to be the real deal

Hope he isn't ground into the dirt by the woke mob.

Is it just me or is the Left extremely defensive regarding the numerous problems plaguing the country right now? It seems like the artists that bring the problems to the forefront are immediately attacked.

In a way I'm glad. They own this.

The Left believe they are somehow immune to the havoc their policies cause.


They need to visit Sweden, France and a host of central American countries.

The left are the wealthy elite who falsely push the message that they're the party of caring for the poor and middle class.

Their supporters are either part of that elite class or they buy into the messaging.

It's fascinating how the Democrat Party has been taken over by the uber-rich. This guy was the core Democrat voter for 150 years - now he's the enemy.

Oh, they don't mind some people who are allowed or privledged to point out numerous societal ill to do so.

They just don't want to have to listen to a semi redneck white guy pointing them out.

Funny, I think giving money and arms to a non NATO country known for corruption at the expense Americans/Cities/States that need help is against our values.

Watched a few reaction videos on youtube. Some of the folks thought it was railing against corporations, not realizing he was singing about the politicians enriching themselves by controlling people, lying to the public and selling out America. "it's a damn shame"
