Most recently I was accused of comparing myself to Jesus. Well I know a lot of people who bare the cross that never learned a thing from the trials of Jesus. Handing out scripture and verse like they wrote it themselves. The first time I ever got sold out it was by my own kin. Then I got in[to] the music business. lol. If they crucified a man like Jesus just imagine what they\u2019ll do to you.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Charley Crockett | Crucified Son | Official Visualizer\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pa3pWSr3veU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<hr\/>\n<p><strong>Kathleen Edwards, \u201cLittle Red Ranger\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Included on her upcoming album <em>Billionaire<\/em> (out 8\/22), Kathleen Edwards shares the song \u201cLittle Red Ranger.\u201d She says the song is \u201cPart love letter to the Canadian boy who moves to LA to pursue his dreams and his heart, part holding the hand of the mom and dad wondering if their kid will decide to set down roots somewhere far away. Bird in a tree if you look away, you miss the chance to see it fly away. Life unfolds before you in real time, looking back just to see you weren\u2019t paying attention when it was happening.
