"A mess"---brown spots? All dead? Weeds? Where are you and what conditions have you endured?

Does the grass pull up like the roots have been eaten and the grass is just laying on top of the ground? Does it need thatched?

Often St. Augustine will revive if the weather gets better---not too dry, not too wet. So you will have to determine if this is dead or just has gone dormant.
