“I don’t wanna be propped up by tearing somebody else down.”

I know Heaven is a mind state, I’ve been a couple times.

If you truly believe it, that’s step one. Step two, is, you know, the hard work that goes along with it.

As we speak I’m at peace, no longer scared to die.

The thing about being an artist today is you get to develop right in front of people’s eyes before you even put out an album.

If they don’t know your dreams, they can’t shoot them down.

Every time you go to sleep you look like you in Heaven.

Producing all my own songs and refusing to go to the hot producer. That’s the biggest risk I’ve taken so far.

I try to put all those positive things into a regular human character, which is myself.

I put a lot of pressure on myself. I think something’s not good enough, and I won’t stop until I feel like I’ve made it. I’m never satisfied.

Don’t let bridges you cross be bridges you burn.

Anything I do, I want to do it well.

It’s no coincidence that all the greatest rappers – whoever you put in your top five – I guarantee you they are great storytellers.

Time will tell who is on my side.

Tupac was just so passionate about what he believes in and not afraid to say anything.

In this life ain’t no happy endings. Only pure beginnings followed by years of sinning and fake repentance.

Catch me, I’ve fallen in love for the first time.

He loved chivalry, Truth and honor, freedom and courtesy.

Be nice to everyone, always smile, and appreciate things because it could all be gone tomorrow.

He who fears to weep, should learn to be kind to those who weep.

Be polite; write diplomatically; even in a declaration of war one observes the rules of politeness.

I just want to work hard and be nice to people, and I feel like when you touch people in that way, on a more personal level, then they go to work the next day pushing for you.

We are all connected. When others are down, we help the fallen.

Just be nice to people and be someone people want to work with because if people don’t like working with you it’s just not going to work out.

The power of delicacy is the power of simplicity and elegance.
