In 2019, he revealed that his 13-year-old daughter Annabelle had inspired the song Middle Child.
He told : "At that time, my daughter was like, 'You have to have a song for me!' I was like, 'Well, I don’t know. You’re the middle child and you’re acting like a middle child right now, seeking attention and approval'.
"'Which I understand because Shane’s always in trouble and the baby’s [daughter Everleigh] cute as f**k, so you’re in the middle.
