“How you gon’ win when you ain’t right within. Uh uh come again.”

A friend once said, and I found to be true,That everyday people, they lie to God too, So what makes you think, that they won’t lie to you.

Reality is easy. It’s deception that’s the hard work.

We don’t want people to have expectations of us, but then we have expectations of everybody else.

And deep in my heart. The answer, it was in me. And I made up my mind. To define my own destiny.

God teaches me about reality, so when he tells me to do something, I do, because I’m led to.

I had to confront my fears and master my every demonic thought about inferiority, insecurity, or the fear of being black, young, and gifted in this Western culture.

The only help I need to live, is unprofessional. The only wealth I have to give, is not material. And if you need much more than that, I’m not available.

I could sit right here and have a 15-minute conversation with somebody and change their whole life.

Out of the dragon’s claws and into the fire, there’s a moment in every man’s life when he must decide what is wrong and what is right.

Give up being right. Instead radiate peace, harmony, love, and laughter from your heart.

Pissing people off doesn’t mean you’re doing the right things, but doing the right things will almost inevitably piss people off.

I bet my words are still tangled beneath that streetlight fighting for the right combination to stay.
