As Long As My Music Is Real,

We Hurt People That Love Us, Love People That Hurt Us

You Can't Change Where You From. You Can't Take A Person Out Of Their Zone And Expect Them To Be Somebody Else Now That They In The Record Industry. It's Gonna Take Years. Years Of Travelling. Years Of Meeting People. Years Of Seeing The World.

As I've Grown As An Artist, I've Learned That My Mission Statement Is Really Self-expression. I Don't Want Anybody To Classify My Music. I Want Them To Say, "this Is Somebody Who's Recognizing His True Feelings, His True Emotions, Ideas, Thoughts, Opinions, And Views On The World, All On One Record." I Want People To Recognize That And To Take It And Apply It To Their Own Lives. You Know What I'm Saying? The More And More I Get Out And Talk To Different People, I Realize They Appreciate That - Me Being Unapologetic In Whatever Views And Approach I Have.

Everybody Has Their Own Way Of Hearing Songs. My Fans Are Usually Pretty On Point. Sometimes They Go All The Way To The Bottom Of It. It's Fascinating To Me How Far An Idea Can Go. I Wrote Most Of My First Album In My Mom's Kitchen, And Now I Can Go Around The World And Hear People Recite Those Lyrics, And Understand The Story, Even Though They're Not From The Same Area I Grew Up In.

Believe In God, It's Only One God. F*** All That Religion S***. Believe In One God, And Do Right. Try Your Best To Do Right, We Ain't Perfect. Just Do That And Everything Will Be Straight.
