A Lot Of Songs I Sang To

I Never Accepted The Idea That I Had To Be Guided By Some Pattern Or Blueprint.

People Called Rock & Roll 'african Music.' They Called It 'voodoo Music.' They Said That It Would Drive The Kids Insane. They Said That It Was Just A Flash In The Pan - The Same Thing That They Always Used To Say About Hip-hop.

And I Don't Get Down On Nobody Else For Doing Whatever Else They Do. To Each His Own.

I Thank God For Making Me A Man.

I Am The Innovator. I Am The Originator. I Am The Emancipator. I Am The Architect Of Rock 'n' Roll!
