He said, “I just wanted a small video to say thanks to everyone who has been connecting to ‘It’ll Be Okay’ or posting videos. It’s just me and social media right now. However, I am surrounded by people who send me videos telling me about their lives.
Mendes confirmed Mendes’ split from Camila Cabello in November, went on to share, “When I make music, the ultimate goal is to be sitting there and have my own truth revealed to me. A lot of times, when I write songs, music is a tool that allows me to access a space within myself that I would not be able to through just thinking or talking.
