"Take You Down" is a song by American DJ and producer Illenium featuring vocals from Tim James of Rock Mafia. [1] It was released on August 3, 2018, as the first single from Illenium's third studio album Ascend . [2]
The song is revealing that Illenium overdosed on heroin nearly took his life. He wrote: "I was trapped in it, had no passion, no direction, and truly hated myself. It was such a dark time for me and my family because when it gets bad enough, hope begins to dim and there's no escaping reality."
And explained how it felt to drag everyone around him down, simply because they loved him and would never give up hope. [3]
Illenium wrote a letter to fans: “‘Take You Down’ is about my struggles with addiction and what it can do to families and loved ones. It’s more specifically about my mom, and how no matter what, she never gave up on me…To anyone struggling like I did, not just with addiction but anything in life, I hope you guys can find peace in your struggles and know that anything can be overcome. I’ve been clean since that overdose and I owe that to finding my passion and being surrounded by the most loving people I could ever ask for.” [4]
