“This is a song for my boys. My sons. It’s a song about how it feels bringing these kids up into this world of uncertainty, which is the fields of gray. As you get older, you realize I grew up as this cocky-assed kid, everything was black and white. As you get older you realize that it’s not so simple, that it’s mostly gray. And so trying to guide your boys through that is a daunting proposition for me, and it’s a song about love for your kids, and your uncertainty about hoping you can do the best for them.”
