When it comes to speaking his mind, Kip Moore has no problem doing so. The “More Girls Like You” singer has apparently been reflecting on life these past few months, during his break from country music and the road.

Kip posted pictures from his journey, as he traveled around the globe. The latest set of photos come from a trip to Iceland, where Kip says he felt close to God. “So long Iceland..never felt more close to God. Till next time..@lifeinrewindfilms,” he posted.

But it was Kip’s post today (March 15), attached to a picture of his silhouette on a beach in front of the sunset, that finds the 36-year-old sounding off. Kip took time to address his followers about taking advantage of life and not getting bogged down with material things in life. Here’s what he said.

“At 21 I had never really seen anything other than the southern portion of the states (beautiful but knew there were other places to see). No one ever talked about getting out & experiencing anything other than what they grew up in, so I knew if I wanted to it would probably be a solo deal at first. I had 1,500 dollars saved up from a summer job after graduation & booked a 1 way flight to Hawaii. I lived on a porch & in a tent for close to a year, completely out of my comfort zone & I’ve been chasing that feelin ever since. You don’t need all the plush bullshit you’ve been brainwashed to desire. That shit keeps you strapped from what’s real. People always tell me I wish I could go see stuff & I say well then go. “Well I’m always kinda tight on $”.. Hey I got an idea sell that Mercedes & 4,000 square foot house you can barely afford that you think defines you, get a damn Kia, a smaller house, book a hostile and GO! You don’t get a re-do. You get 1 lap and that shit is over…@lifeinrewindfilms.”

While some may not agree with Kip’s view, he does make a valid point.
