I must stay true to myself and take my own path all the way.

I create my own reality. And I'm not the only one. My reality is becoming more prominent.

My challenges have not been around music. My hardest thing in music was just sitting down and teaching myself how to play and believing in myself.

I don't even want to call it God. I just want to call it connecting with something that's greater than I am. So that's the biggest thing from Tennessee - the spirit.

They're all personal and self-created challenges that I think I've overcome within myself. Being confident enough to get on stage and play, things like that.

I dont marry bandmates just to go marrying bandmates.

I can't believe the ignorance there, so I don't allow it to affect my life, I don't allow it to come into my zone, and it's not in my world, really.
