6. His father died in 2012, and he wrote the song "Happy Home" in which he talks about how his family has always been the most important for him:

I only wanna put my heart and my life in songs 
Writing about the pain I felt with my daddy gone 
About the emptiness I felt when I sat alone 
About the happiness I feel when I sing it loud 
He should have heard the noise we made with the happy crowd Did my grandaddy know he taught me what a poem was 
How you can use a sentence or just a simple pause 
What will I say when my kids ask me who my daddy was 
I thought about it for a while and I'm at a loss 
Knowing that I'm gonna live my whole life without him 
I found out a lot of things I never knew about him 
All I know is that I'll never really be alone 
'Cause we gotta lot of love and a happy home
