'Stand By You' is about sticking by the person you love not only when things are easy, but being there for them during trials and letting them know they aren't alone.

I am not allowing myself to get carried away.

I like to think that I've got determination, and I'm fiercely protective of the people I love.

It's easy to get carried away with yourself.

I've got a lot of people I'm carrying on my back, but it's a light load because I take a lot of pride in who I am and where I came from.

I still like to get carried away - but passively.

Not everyone loves me, but I have to be okay no matter what they think about me.

My dad, being a businessman, constantly talked to me about carrying myself in a certain way and treating people with respect. And I think that's something that's carried over throughout my life. It's how I deal with certain situations.

It's easy to love yourself when you feel good enough, when you feel special enough, when you're loved enough, when you have enough money, and you're appreciated.

When people show you who they are, believe them. I carry that with me a lot. It has served me well.
