If you notice in the song, he asks for mercy from the Lord but not the court. He knew before he kicked in the door that he was going to go to jail for what he was about to do. He wasnt concerned with that. He willingly sacrificed his freedom for hers. Now his only concern is that he receives mercy, in the end, from God.

I come from a long line of rednecks/country folk on both sides of my family. You're right when they say to wait in the truck, shit is about to go down. Most times, when it comes to domestic assault, the offender will get a light sentence for what they've done and when they get out, will be even more abusive to the girl. This is a fact. Once the courts don't do much about it, then , yea, country folk will definitely instill their own justice on the bastard. Country folk generally will not put up with that kind of abuse on women, especially their own, whether it's a sister, etc..they will mete out their own justice. Also, fyi, I was once like this girl in the music video many yrs ago. I was working and would go to work with bruises around my neck, face, etc. and was pregnant too at the same time. My co workers hated his guts for what they saw what he'd done to me. I tried to hide the bruises but it's hard to do and I still had to work.

@rhondawillems1203 Yep. It is unbelievably rare for an abuser to change. The "I will find you and kill you" have been proven to be the truth. Short of changing your name, creating fake documents and hiding for the rest of your life, you are still in danger. I'm a retired Trauma Counselor and abusers know exactly what to say to trick the counselors or whoever they talk to. People wonder why we don't leave but have never taken the time to learn about DV...if they did they wouldn't ask that. If this was a true story, Hardy's character just saved who knows how many women from being abused or killed. When I first saw this I felt like I had been punched in the stomach...it really got to me. But the line "it was worth it" settled me down and he became an angel in my book. I never wanted anyone to spend time in prison for protecting me but this song gave a whole new perspective on the word "angel".

@@melissawitt3773 after being released he continued to harm others before finally overdosing on meth and dying. He lived 15 years longer than my mom did though and that was 15 years too long. He killed her because she wouldn’t steal from the churches treasury to supply his drugs. She was disabled,stood 4ft 11 inches and weighed less than 100 pounds,he was over 6ft and 200 pounds but he waited until she was asleep to stab her through the heart. He moved his mistress into her house less than 24 hours after she died and they stole or sold everything of value she had for drugs and wrote 82,000.00 in checks on her bank account in one weekend of gambling. My mom’s body was in the house for 6 weeks before she smelled to bad and he dumped her remains beside the freeway and let scavenging animals spread her skeleton around hoping she wouldn’t be found. She was identified by dental records and the cross she was wearing. It’s been 30+years and I still miss her every single day.
