🎤 ABOUT THE SONG

“Underwater” is the raw, emotional new single from artist and producer Brian J. Clark, written in the aftermath of a brief relapse during recovery. It's a haunting look at addiction, depression, and the struggle to stay afloat when you feel like the world is dragging you under.

This isn’t just a song — it’s a lifeline. With gripping lyrics and vulnerable delivery, Clark paints the picture of someone who could’ve died… but chose to create music instead. The track explores:

• Being the black sheep while others "seem fine"

• Near-death experiences from drug use

• The transformative love of becoming a father

• Clinging to purpose as a form of survival
