My music comes from many, many, many places. My emotions, my feelings, my thoughts, and conversations I have with people I know who influence me.

Alicia Keys

Falling down ain’t falling down, If you don’t cry when you hit the floor, It’s called the past cause I’m getting past, And I ain’t nothing like I was before, You ought to see me now.
