Blakes High Thoughts: Warrior With Words

Comprehensive Guide To Understanding & Supporting a Veteran With a Wonderful Mind & a Huge Heart

I. Who Is Blakes High Thoughts:

This isn't your conventional, flowery poetry. Blakes High Thoughts (Blake Sims) comes from the trenches, both in life and in battle. Growing up in Cairo, MS, with six siblings in a trailer, serving in Afghanistan where he faced combat, got injured, and lost brothers in arms.

The man behind "Blake's High Thoughts" has seen darkness that most only read about. Despite staring into the abyss, he manages to remain a guiding light in his community.

"I almost went on another rotation to Korea, but while I was in Alaska, the mental health struggles I brought back from Afghanistan hit me hard."

This is the brutal reality many veterans carry silently. But Blake? He lays it all out there, transforming that pain into art that's truly saving lives.

II. The Underground Connection:

In a landscape filled with surface-level content creators, Blake represents raw authenticity, speaking uncomfortable truths about mental health, addiction, and military life that most platforms would prefer to hush.

His poetry slices right through the superficial noise of your feed. No filters, no facades, just real TRUTH about the struggles that many veterans and trauma survivors have been taught to bury.

III. Military Service & Mental Health Journey:

Army Veteran - 13 Years Service
From surviving childhood abuse to witnessing his friend Ronnie McNutt take his life on Facebook Live, he turns all that pain into healing art.

Afghanistan Combat Veteran
His journey from that jammed gun (a bullet he still keeps) to building a mental health community through his art, embodies everything we stand for.

Mental Health Advocate
While others chase trends, Blake is building a lifeline. This Army vet, who served 13 years before being medically retired, is penning a collection that chronicles a boy's journey to manhood through trauma and recovery.

IV. The 3NIGMA BRED Cosign:

At 3NIGMA BRED MUSIC, we don't just back any creator, we align with those who channel their darkest experiences into light for others. Blake's journey embodies everything we stand for.

He doesn't need mainstream approval. The fact that real people grappling with similar struggles are finding hope in his words is the only validation he needs.

"What's understood doesn't need to be explained, lock it in with Blake"

I. Who Is Blakes High Thoughts: 

This isn’t your conventional, flowery poetry. Blakes High Thoughts (Blake Sims) comes from the trenches, both in life and in battle. Growing up in Cairo, MS, with six siblings in a trailer, serving in Afghanistan where he faced combat, got injured, and lost brothers in arms. The man behind "Blake’s High Thoughts" has seen darkness that most only read about. Despite staring into the abyss, he manages to remain a guiding light in his community.

 Catch him Live where you'll hear amazing poets and artists alike sharing and reviewing! Go scroll through his TikTok and unearth plenty of hidden gems as Blake goes out of his way to highlight new and on the rise talent. If you go back far enough you'll even see a video on Grim Logick and iLLLogick, the Founder & Co-Founder of 3NIGMA BRED MUSIC.

"I almost went on another rotation to Korea, but while I was in Alaska, the mental health struggles I brought back from Afghanistan hit me hard." This is the brutal reality many veterans carry silently. But Blake? He lays it all out there, transforming that pain into art that’s truly saving lives.

II. The Underground Connection:

 In a landscape filled with surface-level content creators, Blake represents raw authenticity, speaking uncomfortable truths about mental health, addiction, and military life that most platforms would prefer to hush.

His poetry slices right through the superficial noise of your feed. No filters, no facades, just real TRUTH about the struggles that many veterans and trauma survivors have been taught to bury. From surviving childhood abuse to witnessing his friend Ronnie McNutt take his life on Facebook Live, he turns all that pain into healing art.

III. What Sets Him Apart:

 While others chase trends, Blake is building a lifeline. This Army vet, who served 13 years before being medically retired, is penning a collection that chronicles a boy’s journey to manhood through trauma and recovery, a thinly veiled reflection of his own journey from contemplating suicide to finding purpose in helping others.

He was a HUGE part of a nonprofit dedicated to mental health, which has since ended, due to uncontrollable external factors. Yet he still regularly highlights poetry and artists on TikTok to uplift fellow creators. That’s the kind of LEADERSHIP the underground respects. He’s not just healing himself; he’s creating spaces for others to be heard

IV. The 3NIGMA BRED Cosign:

 At 3NIGMA BRED MUSIC, we don't just back any creator, we align with those who channel their darkest experiences into light for others. Blake's journey, from that jammed gun (a bullet he still keeps) to building a mental health community through his art, embodies everything we stand for.

He doesn’t need mainstream approval. The fact that real people grappling with similar struggles are finding hope in his words is the only validation he needs. That is why his poetry resonates so deeply; it speaks to parts of ourselves many would prefer to keep hidden.

This is what the underground is all about, showcasing artists who refuse to sanitize their message for comfortable consumption. Blake isn’t just another content creator; he’s a lifeline for those standing where he once stood, with a weapon to their head and no hope in sight.

What’s understood doesn’t need to be explained, lock it in with Blake
