“There’s shift happening. You are moving through something; which explains why you have been slower and more withdrawn than usual.”

There’s no better feeling than realizing you no longer reside in the same realm you used to. Growth is so beautiful.

I hope you find someone who matches your passion and your efforts. Someone who is mentally and emotionally equipped enough to help build you back up in your time of need.

God bless the woman that chases nobody, seek no validation and minds her own.

Demand the love you know you deserve.

I don’t think there’s an act that could possibly be more selfless and gratifying than being able to forgive yourself.

I am made of wholesome and incredible things. I’ve survived so much and worked too damn hard on myself to believe otherwise.

Don’t you ever let anyone fault you for outgrowing them.

Your life will take on a whole new reality the second you make the decision to shift away from all the unnecessary and cluttering things that once narrowed your perception of this world.

If your best efforts bring less than desirable results because your mental health is suffering, I hope you know you are still worthy and doing all that you can. You deserve to applaud yourself.

So inspired by what it means to be a woman of substance. A woman of great poise and assertiveness.

I still have time to do everything I intend on doing and becoming and I’m certainly not running out of time.

Only you know how far you’ve truly come. Please don’t ever let that go unnoticed.

I try to focus on the fact that whatever I’m feeling right now, no matter how intense, painful and distressing; is temporary.

I’ve spent a lot of time holding onto things and people that brought me misery because I was afraid of the void that may be there once I let go. I know now my voids were just as illusionary as the fear and insecurities that created them.

Every step I’ve taken has rewarded me with a lesson and every single setback and disruption has straightened out in a manner that befits me.

I promise you are under no obligation to have it all together all the time.

No matter what anyone says, no matter the excuse or explanation, whatever a person does in the end is what he intended to do all along.

In my first video diary I explained my love for women who have a taste in carrots. Since then, I have received plenty of carrots. Now I also have a keen interest in women who like Lamborghinis.

I am just fascinated by music and I want to know how to identify all the things I love about it; to me music theory is like learning another language and then being able to explain how much you love something more clearly.

Art can exist without explanation, so why must we understand the complexities of life to fully live it.

I feel I have a responsibility to myself, a responsibility to explain where we’re coming from. Because a song or the performance of a song is a lot like a work of art.

I’m also not going to explain something just because I said it in a rap. Take what you want from it.

It’s entertaining to watch somebody break my music down or explain what he thinks I was thinking during the process of making these records. Because… he has no idea.

At the end of the day, let there be no excuses, no explanations, no regrets.
