Viral musician Oliver Anthony explained how faith changed the trajectory of his life in an interview last week with podcast giant Joe Rogan<\/a>, quoting from the Bible’s Book of Proverbs to the non-religious host at one point.<\/p>\n

The singer told Rogan in a wide-ranging interview<\/a> that once he gave his life to God a month before he became a sensation for his song “Rich Men North of Richmond,” everything changed.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m telling you, again\u2026 I\u2019m not anybody special, and I\u2019m certainly not here to preach to anybody\u2026 but coming from somebody who was just in a really f—ed up place, and I used that word with discretion, but it just describes where I was,” Anthony told Rogan. “That guy found a lot of peace from [the Bible].”<\/p>\n

Anthony’s song has soared to the top of the charts,<\/u><\/a> striking a chord among Americans as a song about working-class struggles that leave people feeling dejected and forgotten by Washington politicians on both sides of the aisle. Anthony, who was quickly embraced by the right last month, has pointedly shot down any notion that he is a partisan, hoping his message transcends typical politics.<\/p>\n

The Virginia native said he suffered from mental health struggles, including anxiety and depression, along with shooting pains in his jaw and throughout his body, which prompted him to ultimately decide suicide<\/a> would be his “only way out.” Anthony sustained a massive head injury at a past factory job.<\/p>\n

“I just felt hopeless, like almost the way a child feels hopeless when you can\u2019t find your parent or something. Like a 4-year-old who can\u2019t find his parents, I didn\u2019t have anything left in me,” he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I just decided right then and there, I know I can\u2019t do this anymore, but I know there are things I need to do,” he added. “I just told God, let me do it and I\u2019ll give all this s— up. I\u2019ll give up the weed, and I\u2019ll quit getting drunk, and I\u2019ll quit being so angry about things\u2026 and I\u2019ll start over again and make Him the focus and not me.”<\/p>\n

Once he made those changes to his life and perspective, Anthony, whose real name is Christopher Lunsford, said he quit worrying about himself and instead focused on what he believed was important.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We all sin, and we all do stupid things; we\u2019re all just people. Nobody\u2019s special or righteous,” he said. “People sometimes act like they\u2019re special and righteous, but we\u2019re all just the same thing\u2026 We all serve some master whether we realize it or not, so why not let it be the Master that is above all.”<\/p>\n

Anthony read a passage to Rogan from Proverbs 4:20-27<\/u><\/a> that he said changed his life.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“And I\u2019ll be very brief with this, I promise, but ironically, it\u2019s Proverbs 4:20, which I thought you would like \u2026 \u2018My son, pay attention to what I say, turn your ear to my words. Do not let them out of your sight. Keep them within your heart, for they are life to those who find them and health to one\u2019s whole body.”<\/p>\n

“Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it,” he continued reading. “Keep your mouth free from perversity, keep corrupt talk from your lips, let your eyes look straight ahead, fix your gaze directly before you, give careful thoughts to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways. Do not turn to the right or the left, keep your foot from evil.'”<\/p>\n

“That\u2019s pretty f—ing profound,” Rogan said in response. Anthony described Proverbs as “not preachy,” but “good guidance that you would want a father to give to his son.”<\/p>\n

In the interview<\/a>, Rogan also mocked liberal “out-of-touch” billionaires who have criticized Anthony’s song.\u00a0<\/p>\n
