TobyMac released an emotional new song and tribute to Truett, "21 Years," a few weeks back that hinted at his son's darker demons. "You said you'd turn, you would turn it around / Thought that you had time to straighten it out / Told me that you were my prodigal son / But this isn't home"
 

Our hearts and prayers go out to Toby, his wife Amanda and the rest of their family as they continue to request privacy during this time.
