Gravity - Commentary
We always have one or two songs on the
Record that are just a battle to finish
And take a lot of work some songs come
So naturally and some songs you just
Gotta fight for and… the producer loved
It, Jerry was on board, tobin loved it and I
Fucking hated it i’m like "Ahh, I just
Can’t, something about it is not right
You know" and the producer is just
Like "No it’s amazing" and then
I re-wrote the verse
In a different way and it was good but
It just didn’t have that thing and so we
Flipped it and put the rap back in
It, ‘cause we pulled the rap out for a minute
And did something else and that was good
But it just didn’t… It didn’t tell the story
That needed to be told and so
And really and truly it was just like
To "I don’t want my wife
To hear this song", you know what I’m
Saying "I’m so fucked", you don’t like
"I don’t wanna like
Rehash this old shit" but then
It’s like that’s when
Some of the best music is, you know, that’s
When some of the best music
Is written is when
You’re just brutally honest and
This track, you know
Does really paint me in the best picture, you
Know it definitely shows me as the scumbag
You know what I’m
Saying, but there’s some redemption, you
Know what I’m saying, change can fix
Things and can mend some broken hearts
You know, and this song
I believe is me and my wife Kelly
This is like our testament to
Show maybe some other couples
That are going through, you
Know, damaged relationships and, you
Know, broken trust is
Well you can forgive, you can
Get through these things
It’s just you both gotta fight for it
You know and she is my gravity
