That\u2019s it,\u201d said Fieldy of his hiatus from the band, \u201cI\u2019m like, \u2018I\u2019m not going out there.\u2019 That\u2019s what happened, \u2019cause it was new. Now. I\u2019m like\u2026 The whole time \u2014 I mean, I didn\u2019t get vaccinated or anything \u2014 but when you reflect on it, that\u2019s what happened.

But it gave me time to sit, and once you sit, you can reflect and you\u2019re like, you\u2019re kind of just waiting you know to what\u2019s next, \u2019cause I don\u2019t know what the rest of this day is going to bring. I\u2019m just on fire for whatever, whatever is ready.\u201d<\/p>\n
