In a new interview with People, Jelly Roll revealed the significant meaning behind the broken chain tattoo on his arm. “It is just about breaking chains in life — anything that is bounding us, any bondage that we have, any addiction, anything we think God can’t get us through,” he shared. “We can break those chains.” The country star has broken free from past struggles in his own life, including substance abuse, addiction, and incarceration, giving him a second chance at life. “I think second chances are earned,” Jelly added. “I think sometimes you can earn them in opportunity — there are opportunities to earn — but I believe that second chances are earned.” Jelly got his beloved tattoo after he and collaborators Taylor Phillips and Jackson Dean wrote a song together called, “I Can’t Break These Chains.” “We loved the song so much we got the tattoo of the breaking chains that day,” Jelly said. “And we still never put that song out! We should put that song out.” (Billboard)
