The world may be filled with hate, but keep erasing it now, somehow.

The best thing about being on the road in general is just playing every single night in front of people that are genuinely fans of your music.

I’ve always had really messy hair.

Country music is some of the best-written music in the world, so yeah, one day, I would keep my mind open to doing a country record.

What didn’t kill me, it didn’t make me stronger at all.

Loving can heal, loving can mend your soul and it’s the only thing that I know.

Life is more than fittin’ in your jeans. It’s love and understanding, positivity.

Your love is the sweetest chocolate I ever tasted.
