Background

In an interview with People , Grammer provided information on the album and its tracks, including "She'd Say", which was described as "a touching song about what his mom would say to his daughter if she were still alive." "It's really sweet, it's one of my favorites," Grammer explained, adding that "the whole song is about little pieces of advice, like 'You're beautiful, but don't overplay that card' or 'You're spiritual, so don't forget that part.'"
