You Do Learn From What You've Done

As Far As I'm Concerned, My Life Is Just Beginning. It's Never Too Late To Start Over, So This Is What I've Been Doing.

There's A Lesson To Be Learned Out Of Everything We Go Through In Life. I Recall When I Left [jack Gordon], And My Mother Was So Upset. "how Could You Allow Him To Beat You? You Should Really Be Upset With Him." And I Said, "mother, I Can't Be." She Goes, "why?" I Said, "because I Can't Harbor Hatred In My Heart." I Was Extremely Religious And Extremely Naïve. God Took Me Through That For A Reason, For Me To Learn The Outcome.

When I Wake Up, I Always Thank God. I'm Grateful For Another Day, And He's Allowed Me This Tiny Thing That We Should Be Appreciative Of. As Long As You Know Who You Are, Everything Else Will Be Ok. No One Else Can Intervene Or Interfere Or Affect You, Because You Control Your Destiny, You Control Your Tone, You Control Everything In Your Life.

I Would Love To Have A Rapper On One Of My Songs, Like Ludacris, Or The 'it's So Hot In Here' Guy, Nelly.

I've Always Wanted To Adopt Kids Ever Since I Was 16 Years Old. I Always Said I'm Going To Adopt, I'm Going To Adopt. There's Too Many Kids In The World That Need Love And Attention, I Can Give It To Them.
