I really, really, really wish that I could have seen that.īut I hope one day, she understands that, you know, me and my super bust ass just try to give her the best life that we can.Ī Martinez: So she knows your voice? She knows that's daddy singing? Going on tour is really hard because she just did ten steps the other day, and her mom sent me a video. I want to work my ass off, you know, and it's such a hard thing to do, especially going on tour. I want to hang out with the baby and play video games when she goes to bed. I used to not really care about a lot of stuff, but that really turns it around super quick, man. She is about 14 months now, and she just started running around and walking. My mom says, "Everyone loves you." My dad's like, "Maybe people don't like you so much.Ī Martinez: Being a father changes things, doesn't it? I do the best for the people that do.Ī Martinez: I think dads tend to say that more than moms. I mean, my dad told me when I was a kid, "Not everybody's going to like you." And that stuck with me. I guess that's the takeaway from that song - just try your best. I always questioned things, and now I have a tendency to second-guess myself. That not only has to do with relationships, but also performing and being in the public light. It's a lot of anxiety, and a lot of different emotions come with that.Ī Martinez: I think a lot of people couldn't possibly understand that someone like you, that has millions of fans - that does a job that people dream of doing - they think, 'Well, how could you possibly not like yourself when we like you so much?' So, you just try to take time to really think through things. And then you start thinking, "You have so much riding on everything!" You don't want to be disrespectful and super crazy because you have so many people that work with you and people that you love. As I got older, I started looking at things differently, trying to take my time. To be honest, I have a lot of self-confidence issues, and they came around kind of late. It's like that Groucho Marx line, "I don't want to be part of a club that would have someone like me as a member." The very first song - "I Don't Understand" - you sing, "I don't understand how you like me so much because I don't like myself." Millions of people feel the same way. A Martinez: It also sounds way more intensely personal.
