Falling down ain't falling down, If you don't cry when you hit the floor, It's called the past cause I'm getting past, And I ain't nothing like I was before, You ought to see me now

I see what happens when one gets very attached to material things. That's just not what my life is.

Why give up before we try?

We're all going to change. Otherwise, it's boring. Who wants to stay the damn same all their life?

I grew up in a pretty tough neighborhood.

When I really need it, talking is the best way to deal with emotional pain.

Even when I'm singing on record there's a lot of times when I'll fight for a bit of imperfection. I might not have quite hit the note to the perfect pitch, but there was a soul in there and feeling that,to me, delivers the emotion of that moment. For me, doing a show, the excitement of singing live, and the possibility that you're not going to be perfect - that's the thrill of it.
