Zach Bryan had a special message for those close to him as he released his new song “High Road.”

“After being away for a year and a half, I drove to my mother’s (SIC) gravestone in the dead of night a few days ago on the familiar roads of Oklahoma,” wrote the 28 year old country singer via his Instagram on Thursday, November 7. “And I realized that, like in the past, she would never call me again.”

During his visit to the memorial, Bryan said he updated his late mother on all the progress he had made in his life.

“I told him I stopped touring because I had been accepted to do my master’s in Paris next year,” he continued. “I told him I was back in Oklahoma, I told him about all my best friends in New York and all the nights we howled at the moon.”

Bryan also reflected on the good times he shared with his bandmates on stage and how his hard work paid off. He also looked forward to spending quality time with his sister. All of these moments inspired him to write the chorus to “High Road.”

“She’s sure to come back and haunt you forever/There are ghosts in the windows and walls/I’ve been waiting on the phone all night/For someone who’ll never call,” Bryan sings on the piece.

Bryan admitted he wrote the lyrics “a month or two ago” after realizing he was “blessed by all these things.” He decided that now was the best time to share these words with the world.

“Thank you to all the people who love me, who have truly carried the weight with me,” he wrote. “It seems like all those quiet dreams have become way too much, but I’m home now and I’m going to support you through the pain.”

Bryan’s song release comes hours after his ex-girlfriend’s Brianna “Fried Chicken” LaPaglia accused the musician of emotionally abuse her during their year-long relationship. Bryan and the Barstool Sports personality, 25, split late last month. While LaPaglia previously shared that she was blinded by the breakupshe spoke more about her experience with Bryan on the “BFFs” podcast she co-hosts with Dave Portnoy And Josh Richards.

“I always said f-your money. You made women before me believe that they had no other choice,” she said. “And for you to take money, sign their experiences, sign what they’ve been through, you can go jump and sing your little songs on stage like you’re a good guy.”
