With song titles like “Chicken and Biscuits” and “The High Life,” it should come as no surprise that gregarious hick-hopper Colt Ford likes to have a good time. But it’s not all fun and games for the former pro golfer, and the proof is in the new video for his latest single, “Workin’ On,” which tackles the heavy subject matter of post-traumatic stress disorder.

The normally lighthearted Colt took a decidedly heartfelt approach to the video after befriending Marcus Luttrell, retired U.S. Navy Seal and author of The Lone Survivor.

“This song really moved me,” says Colt. “When I reached out to Marcus and told him what I wanted to do for the video and the impact I wanted it to have, he was all in. I’m just a guy who sings, Marcus is a real American hero.”

Here is part of the song

Workin' on coming to Jesus, kicking the bottle,
Wrestling with our roots,
Trying to turn off Mama's tears, and fill our Daddy's boots Shutting off our pride, fixing bridges we burned, learning how to live and learn
Keeping our demons down and our trucks up and running
Loving them angels sitting pretty in the middle of 'em
Fighting with the man in the mirror til' we gone
Yeah, that's what all us good ol' boys gonna go out workin' on
Gonna go out workin' on
