“They say you waste time asleep, but I’m just trying to dream.”

I like tattoos. I’m gonna be covered. I’m not going to touch my face or under the chin on the neck: it’s my least favorite place.

Time goes by living without you. Hope you know, I’ve been thinking about you.

Stand by those who stand by you.

There’s a lot of beauty in the world, so go hang out and go be a part of the solution rather than the problem.

I don’t want to limit myself as an artist and only do a certain sound.

I’ve been laughed at, hated on, no one would even play my songs. Wouldn’t even listen to anything that my name was on.

The number one reason why people give up so fast is because they tend to look at how far they still have to go, instead of how far they’ve gotten.

I’m just an idea, nothing concrete.

Don’t count the number of friends you have, but the number of friends you can count on.

That’s when the magic happens- when everyone else is asleep and you’re awake thinking about the world as it is, and the world as it could be. Make the most of those moments.

Enjoy the best things in your life, ’cause you ain’t gonna live it twice. They say you waste time asleep, but I’m just trying to dream.
