00:39That claw was, I miss that thing.
00:41I still think about it.
00:46And I miss Blockbuster too, but bubblegum.
00:52This is my crystal ball.
00:59I see all my fans going crazy on the tour and I love them so much.
01:05All my hands are sweaty and shit.
01:12This is my iPod Nano.

02:11With film cameras it's like, it takes time.
02:14You don't have unlimited tries.

02:17This is my essential, essential, essential hard drive.
02:28Music, music, music.

02:34I started making music in fifth grade.
02:36Cause my dad makes country music.
02:38I don't wanna stop.
02:40Like I love making music cause I don't wanna stop doing it.
02:43Nothing ever feels like it's enough.
02:48This is Palo Santo.
02:50Palo Santo cleanses the air and makes everything smell good around me.
02:54Especially my house.
02:56I do it at every hotel I go to.
02:58To the venues, to the car.
03:01I wish I could light it in here.
03:03I go through a lot of this.

03:55I don't gotta say too much.
03:56All the kids out there just pick up a book and deal with your feelings.
04:08I wouldn't say, like, I got into philosophy but certain books, certain things I see, it's just a part of who I am.
04:19And I hope kids out there can take something from it too, so.
04:23Just pick up a book.
