Jamal told me, "I love Mississippi. People try to get me to move, but it’s just so peaceful and just so down to earth. I wanted to paint a picture of what I miss and what I’ve come from and that what I do currently in Mississippi that gives me that ease and that peace of mind. And in the song, if you listen closely, you’ll hear how I feel."
