Citizen Soldier
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I first discovered Citizen Soldier on my Instagram newsfeed and was intrigued by the lyrics in their video clips. When I looked into the group, I learned that the lead singer and song writer is a licensed therapist and has been committed in the hospital for mental health himself, so it's little surprise that his lyrics showcase just how well he understands the struggle mental health can be. It's not all just focused on one type either. Suicide, anxiety, depression, PTSD - his lyrics speak to all of them and more. As someone going through EMDR, these lyrics really speak both to my brain and my soul in more ways than one. You don't need to be in therapy to be able to feel the songs either, but for those who are, you'll probably find something that resonates.
