That's wild.
Having Grammys, that's wild.
Yeah, Goat Head is a story.
This song started as a story that my mother told me when I was around 14 years old.
I grew up and I was very lucky to have the ignorance that my mother's white, my father's black, and we all get along for the most part and we love each other.
And I thought that was gonna be my experience in the world.
When I got a little bit older, my mom was like, no, no, no, no, it was not easy.
My mom told me this story about
sleeping in her apartment, and my father coming to visit.
And when he woke up the next morning to go to work, his car, the windshield was bashed in, and the tires were slashed, and slurs written on the car, and in the backseat was a goat's head.
And they basically were saying, -"Stop this now."
-"Right."
-"Stop this love that you got to share."
And, um...
That was hard to hear.
And it's always been in the back of my mind.
And it's always been there.
And once I wrote this song, I had a chance to release it.
And I think telling my parents' story, even if it's not my story, I think it's doing them some good too.
Just to say, this happened, this was wrong, and this is what happened.
