People acceptin' me for me, people lovin' my music was big for me.

I wanted "Champion" to accompany that whole growth situation, 'cause I feel like, if you go overtime, you will become a champion.

People acceptin' me for me, people lovin' my music was big for me.

I could go old-school; I listen to a lot of old-school music, like Teddy Pendergrass, the Temptations, people like that. I'm an old-school dude, and I'm vibin' with stuff like that to clear my mind. I like listening to that old-school music.

It's a lot of people that's tried to stop my grind, there's been a lot of hate, but even more love.

I just wanted to let people know that, in any aspect in which you're getting' money, you've gotta go overtime in order to provide for your loved ones or those who are around you. So that was my state of mind.

I take pride in my music, I feel like it actually does something for people personally, in their personal lives, so it's real music and it helps people get through things like I was able to get through things.
