(GEMS RADIO) – T-Pain is now a restaurant owner. The singer was in high spirits when he announced the news to his 2.8 million Instagram followers.
“I DID IT BOIS!!!! I’m officially a restaurant owner,” the singer wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of him holding the keys. “Got my keys today and I’m scared as shit. BUT! I can no longer ignore the paths God has set for me just because I don’t understand or I’m scared.”
T-Pain continued, “I’ve learned that if I’m not afraid, that means I’m in my comfort zone, that may be what some ppl want but as comfortable as it is in there, it also gets fuggen BORING!!! In this new chapter of my life I’m taking the leap on anything I truly love and believe in. I’m fully in control and don’t have to ask for permission to believe in myself anymore. Let this be a sign to GO DO THE THING!! If you’re not afraid, you’re too comfortable.”
His Parents Were Also Restaurant Owners
Following up his post was a shout-out to his parents who were standing in front of their first restaurant they had purchased in the singer’s hometown in Tallahassee, Florida.
“My mom and dad in front of their first restaurant,” he wrote. “I grew up in this place. I know the risks. I know how stressful it is. I know the success rate.”
He continued, “Thank you everybody for your support, kind words, encouragement, and though, it may not seem like it, I also appreciate the concern BUT, pls don’t project your own fears on to me. Let me shoot my shot without you telling me why you’re afraid to shoot yours.
