“I can’t help the way you was born if you was gay.”

God to me is love.

I sit and talk to kids all day, because I feel like they carry the most wisdom.

But what love got to do with it when you don’t love yourself ?

Just let me be me, That’s the only way I know.

You don’t hear no artists from Compton showing vulnerability.

It’s a great, great experience to finally get the reception that you know you rightfully deserve.

Nothing really changes until I change myself.

I like to let things breathe.

The Universe energy doesn’t lie.

I always felt like there was a certain standard of music that I had to do from the beginning, even when I didn’t have the recognition that I have now.

We look so much on color that we forget about the soul.

Color don’t tell if people Black. It’s the soul.

I learned, when I look in the mirror and tell my story, that I should be myself and not peep whatever everybody is doing.

I’m constantly thinking.

People are used to music that justifies street culture but something that’s not touched on is why these kids act the way they act, live the way they live.

I don’t vote. I don’t do no voting.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but if a woman threatens to kill herself and your unborn child, you are in an emotionally abusive relationship.

Time is swift, it races by; Opportunities are born and die. Still you wait and will not try – A bird with wings who dares not rise and fly.

I believe I’m going to die doing the things I was born to do. I believe I’m going to die high off the people. I believe I’m going to die a revolutionary in the international revolutionary proletarian struggle.

We are born to action; and whatever is capable of suggesting and guiding action has power over us from the first.

I was born with music inside of me, and that was the first flower that bloomed on my tree, but I was the highest key in my school and also the lowest key, seen?

It’s a good thing I was born a girl, otherwise I’d be a drag queen.

I was born by myself but carry the spirit and blood of my father, mother and my ancestors. So I am really never alone. My identity is through that line.

Each new generation born is in effect an invasion of civilization by little barbarians, who must be civilized before it is too late.
