I don't think I would have met my wife.

You know, there's so many different things that I went through in my life that I love that because I didn't have a childhood.

Truly, I was so unhappy with myself for a long time.

I think I just never knew.

I always wanted to be a musician since I was a kid, since my dad introduced me to it.

And I tried for my entire childhood, and no one cared.

Again, I grew up in an abusive household.

When you find something that you like, you get torn down for it.

So I just never thought I could do it.

My dad introduced us to music, and he passed away.

He was going to give you a guitar, right?

He passed away, and so I stopped.

I stopped trying.

He played music all the time.

I grew up with Rascal Flats and Train and

um Coldplay and he passed away and the music stopped and figuratively and you know actual and so when I started understanding what was happening in my life I started playing music and I got torn down for it every day you know I would do talent shows my mom wouldn't show up and she would say I sucked and all these different things and you know hearing that every day growing up you start to think do I suck

you know and then I turned 18 and I was still trying I would post covers on Vine and TikTok and it was Musical.ly at the time and I got kicked out of my house and I would go and when I would shower at a 24 hour fitness or whatever bathroom I could find at a resort or whatnot I would sing in the bathroom and the acoustics were great and I would post those on the internet and those wouldn't do well and

yeah i was every single second i could i think i got shot down and then i met my wife and i posted a video with her in my car and it did amazing the first rip around and i was like oh cool like this is gonna get us out of the situation we kept going and found myself back to music and here we are what did your day-to-day look like with your mom and her addiction i was the only person who

I don't know if I'm the only person who knew I was the only person who called it out.

Yeah.
