"We’re proud to work alongside the AFSP to support their mission to bring hope to those affected by suicide, and proud that this song - which has been special to us since it was first written - can play a part in bringing a little more light to an incredibly important topic.”

Along with the announcement, Papa Roach has revealed an incredible live shot music video for the refreshed track captured during the band's most recent touring stint. The footage showcases the kind of command the track has coupled with a powerful performance by Shaddix at the helm.
