Jelly Roll is reminded of his impact wherever he goes.

During the second episode of What Drives You with John Cena, the "Wild Ones" singer spoke about a note that he received from a fan years ago that brought him to tears.

Cena, 47, joined Jelly Roll, 40, in Nashville and before they hit the road to grab something to eat at Barr's Music City Soul Food, the singer-songwriter showed off his car collection, which included a 1964 Lincoln Continental convertible and a 1976 Cadillac El Dorado.

Jelly also flaunted his Ram 1500 Laramie, which his wife Bunnie Xo bought for him and customized — along with a note a fan left for him four years prior.

“You want to talk about what drives me? There’s a note right here," he said. "I want you to check it out if you don’t mind. You can read it right there on my dash."

"Your music saved my best friend’s life. Thank you for being unapologetically you and doing what you do," the note read, simply signed "A."

When the wrestler asked the "Son of a Sinner" singer if he knew where the note came from or who A was, Jelly said he didn't, but he said that was the "cool thing" about it.

"They left this note on my window four years ago, and I sobbed in the parking lot reading this note. I got in and stuck it in my dash. Four years later, that thing is still taped on my dash."

In response, the WWE star told Jelly that he is someone who "undoubtedly has a certain energy and gravity about them."

At another point in the video, Jelly — born Jason DeFord — also showed off his sneaker collection. He said that growing up his parents "did the best they could to buy us anything we wanted," but his passion for the shoes was on another level.

"One of the first things I did when I started getting success was buying sneakers." Jelly added that he didn't realize how many he bought until his wife told him it was "getting crazy." Each pair brings him back to a special moment in time.
