“If people take anything from my music, it should be motivation to know that anything is possible as long as you keep working at it and don’t back down.”

Hello, Darkness, my old friend.

There’s no limit on how far I would go, no boundaries, no lengths.

If there’s not drama and negativity in my life, all my songs will be really wack and boring or something.

I’m standing up, I’mma face my demons, I’m manning up, I’mma hold my ground.

I think my first album opened a lot of doors for me to push the freedom of speech to the limit.

Lose yourself in the music, the moment – you own it.

Love is just a word, but you bring it definition.

There is no mountain I can’t climb. There’s no tower too high. No plane that I can’t learn how to fly.

You can make something of your life. It just depends on your drive.

I’ve accomplished enough with the music that I haven’t had to go out there and do other things to over-saturate.

People can try to reinvent themselves. I don’t think you can really change who you are, though, because who you are is pretty much where you came from and what you’ve done up to now.

Be proud to be out of your mind and out of control.

The reality is you do not know exactly what is likely to occur tomorrow. Lifetime can be a ridiculous trip, and practically nothing is confirmed.

Just promise you’ll think of me, every time you look up in the sky and see a star.

If you had one shot, or one opportunity. To seize everything you ever wanted in one moment. Would you capture it or just let it slip?

These times are so hard, and they’re getting even harder.
