It\u2019s about fear, presence, taking inventory, and at the end of the day, the love that we hope to find along the journey that makes us never want the journey to end.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tShe added, \u201cI\u2019m a superfan of Patrick\u2019s craft, more so the heart and intention he does it with, and feel honored to have lent my voice to this brilliant record.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<p>\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Patrick Droney &amp; Kelsea Ballerini - Math of Us (Official Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Zq7940LBuoo?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<p><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tDroney called \u201cMath of Us\u201d an \u201cunspoken conversation\u201d he feels in every room. \u201cI\u2019m constantly running numbers in the background of ordinary moments, trying my best not to show my cards to the people I love. At its core, this record is an acknowledgment of that universal human process,\u201d the singer said. \u201cKelsea and I have always had Nashville in common, but getting to share a creative season in New York has meant so much. The video grew out of that practice of looking closely, and it reflects something Kelsea and I both connect with: being one within life\u2019s tapestry and recognizing a greater story unfolding around us.\u201d<\/p>\n<section class=\"brands-most-popular \/\/ recirculation-modules trending-in-article lrv-u-margin-tb-2 lrv-u-border-a-2 u-box-shadow-5-5 lrv-u-padding-lr-1 a-span1 u-padding-b-1@tablet u-overflow-hidden\">\n<h2 id=\"section-heading\" class=\"c-heading larva  lrv-u-text-align-center u-border-color-black a-font-theme-primary-xxs lrv-u-color-black lrv-u-text-transform-uppercase u-letter-spacing-0063 lrv-u-padding-t-050 u-padding-b-0375@tablet lrv-u-padding-b-050@mobile-max lrv-u-border-b-2\">\n<p>\t\tTrending Stories<\/p>\n<\/h2>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tAmong the cast of people featured in the video, Droney\u2019s oldest friends PJ and Anya and their two children are featured.
