Deej

Deej is a 2017 documentary about David James (DJ) Savarese, a nonspeaking autistic teenager with disabilities who is depicted as communicating through the scientifically discredited facilitated communication technique. The film's unskeptical depiction of facilitated communication, including the claims that DJ's degree from Oberlin College is legitimate, and that he is the author of the film's script (rather than it being created by his facilitator), have been the subject of criticism. more »

Oldest brother little ones were looking up to me
Never want to see the day where one of them was struggling
I can't help but think that what has happened is because of me
Instead of you I wish addiction chose to take control of me, yeah
Real friends y'all say you're real and tell him that you love him
But if you really did you wouldn't partake in the substance
That's got him in a hold, I know y'all see his hurting soul, I know he's crying out for help But can't rely on people close
But who am I to preach I was the one who introduced him
To the substance he's been feening on it's got his life in ruins
I was trying to fit in when I started I was clueless
That my lil bro was watching whole time and started using
Hate to see the demons always testing him
He pushed me away from drugs cause the way they affected him
I put the bottle down drug dealers never texting them
I just wish it wasn't cause I saw him hit rock bottom to get me off of them
Hear all of the talking coming from the outside in
Saying he's been like this but y'all don't know him like I did
When I look into his eyes I still see that little kid
Full of joy, full of love, and full of all the innocence
Instead of all the judging y'all should look into the mirror
Cause we all got addictions some are easy to keep hidden
Everybody's quick to talk no one's ever quick to listen
Maybe bro wouldn't be addicted if I let him speak his feelings
Now he's running from the home now
Cops chasing little bro please pick up the phone now
Mom's crying out please bring my baby home now
Bro I promise these drugs ain't worth your life all I can do is talk to God now
Screaming out Lord please take these shackles off and free him now
I need him now tell all of the demons just to leave him now
And heal him now please give him the power to stop feening now
He needs you now only you and him know how he's feeling now
In the past I'd say you're dumb I feel like that I let you down
Now I know that I can play a part please let me help you out
I know there are others listening that's going through this
No matter where you're at you can come back my bro will prove it
And if you need somebody's help don't hesitate reach out to me
I'll do everything in my power to keep you battling
Addiction is real but you can beat it don't accept defeat
You could be the first to overcome the family history
Now little bro I haven't told you I loved in a long while but bro I really love you
I can't wait for you to come back so I can hold you
And get to know the new you goodbye to the old you
Bro I really love you, Bro I really love you, Bro I really love you, Bro I really love you
Bro I really love you, Bro I really love you, Bro I really love you, Bro I really love you
Screaming out Lord please take these shackles off and free him now
I need him now tell all of the demons just to leave him now
And heal him now please give him the power to stop feening now
He needs you now only you and him know how he's feeling now
In the past I'd say you're dumb I feel like that I let you down
Now I know that I can play a part please let me help you out
I know there are others listening that's going through this
No matter where you're at you can come back my bro will prove it
And if you need somebody's help don't hesitate reach out to me
I'll do everything in my power to keep you battling
Addiction is real but you can beat it don't accept defeat
You could be the first to overcome the family history
Now little bro I haven't told you I loved in a long while but bro I really love you
I can't wait for you to come back so I can hold you
And get to know the new you goodbye to the old you
