This shows you how divisive a narrative can when shoved down our throats through social media. This song is about how much I love this country and everyone in it more than anything. When your hear the rest of the song, you will understand the full context that hits on both sides of the aisle. Everyone using this now as a weapon is only proving how devastatingly divided we all are. We need to find our way back.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"O376YZWDFVBHDERZOCPYDHJO4Q\">\u201cI served this country,\u201d he continued. \u201cI love this country and the song itself is about all of us coming out of this divided space. I wasn\u2019t speaking as a politician or some greater-than-thou (expletive), just a 29 year old man who is just as confused as everyone else. To see how much (expletive) it stirred up makes me not only embarrassed but kind of scared. Left wing or right wing we\u2019re all one bird and American. To be clear I\u2019m on neither of these radical sides. To all those disappointed in me on either side of whatever you believe in just know I\u2019m trying my best too and we all say things that are misconstrued sometimes. Everyone else have a great day and I love each and every one of ya!!!\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"F4XN3FXCQZAUDBTZ43OWTEBSGA\">Bryan\u2019s release of the song drew swift rebuke from fans of President Trump on social media. <\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"MQYLZYKUXRHPLGQMC2TOSWEJHQ\">\u201cWho\u2019s ready for the Zach Bryan-Dixie Chicks tour?\u201d country music singer and Trump backer John Rich wrote on X. \u201cProb a huge Bud Light sponsorship for this one.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"Z2K57LYHURADNPT4DARUWUMGSU\">\u201cNo name country artist Zach Bryan, slams ice for deporting criminal illegal immigrants,\u201d Mike Engleman wrote on X. \u201cIt\u2019s a stretch calling him an artist because he has no talent.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"QWOFU32R2VG2JCSCH3ESFAEC64\">There were plenty more posts like that, but Bryan also had plenty of support.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"2H67R5IEERC75PXXJVZMJA2VYA\">\u201cNo name country artist Zach Bryan,\u201d Caleb Brock responded to Engleman\u2019s post while sharing a picture that shows the singer has 25.9 million monthly listeners.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"VI4IUUPCAFGQLPHUG7VEP4FBPE\">\u201cThe \u2018no name country artist\u2019 who held the largest ticketed concert in U.S. history (112,000 people) last week,\u201d another person responded to Engleman.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"6XEUVZP65ZGPHCTYAVTVS4JEDU\">\u201cWhen you\u2019ve lost country music star Zach Bryan, it might be time for some self-reflection,\u201d Chris D.
