I haven't read much about rap here so I imagine you all don't listen to it much. Nevertheless, I wanted to include this song on this thread because it has been the most helpful song about suicide that I have heard. The motive, then, I guess, is to share it in case you know someone who likes the genre and could use the support.
Even if you don't really enjoy rap, you might appreciate some of the artistry and the message. I think the song is really well done: it is honest/realistic (i.e., dark) and hopeful (one without the other is usually not very helpful to someone suffering); it has three characters in the verses -- one in the first person, Satan, and God. A great part is God's response immediately after Satan's words.
Satan is a deceiver. God is the Truth and He never forsakes us.

I'm planning on sending out 5-10 song recommendations from many genres to my school/peers about suicide to support their Suicide Prevention Week next week. Any recommendations (that are not ... 'triggering' (I don't want to use that word but eh) to someone struggling? meaning, if a dsbm song helps in some non-violence-conducing way, that's cool ... but I'm not going to suggest a song with lyrics that actually condone suicide)?

Cutting the Ties by August Burns Red is a great song; however, 1:42 - 2:42 in the song with the below lyrics, is extremely powerful. "No one knows the weight on your shoulders. No one knows the burdens you bear." "These thoughts won't stop." "It'd be so easy to take the easy way out."

Seeing that you posted a non-rap song in here:
Antestor - Betrayed Forgotten Sorrow - Cold Worlds and Suicides Rotting Serpent - Where Is My God Now?
I like these three songs, dunno if they would help other people.

I'd like to listen to them, thanks NI. Yes, this thread in the great music mesh is for anything. That being said -- listen to the Sevin song or any of the 10,000 songs of his I posted amigo
