Mentioned India Shawn about “Gone,” “ ‘Gone’ isn’t nearly somebody leaving, it’s about what I achieve of their absence. Peace. Readability. Energy. This tune is about being greater than okay alone—it’s about lastly feeling highly effective in it. ‘Gone’ is about releasing what doesn’t serve you—not in bitterness, however in readability. It’s me studying that being alone isn’t lonely if you’re lastly sincere about what you deserve. I wrote it from that second the place you cease preventing to repair one thing that retains breaking you, and as a substitute, you select your self. Sonically, I wished to interrupt out of my very own field with this tune. D’Mile and I saved pushing till it felt larger than only a fairly observe—it needed to really feel like an anthem for lastly strolling away and never trying again.”
