I lived with my mom in a really small apartment. My bedroom was like in the living room. That's why I still love to sleep on couches now.

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'm so grateful that I can play and that I can execute what I hear in my head, because that's the tricky part.

I don't worry cause, everything's gonna be alright.

My parents weren't married. It wasn't like my dad up and left. I maintained a steady relationship with my grandparents. My dad's mother is my nana, and I'm closer to her than almost anybody in this world.

Risk the fall to know how it feels to fly.

The desire to play has always been in me. I remember my first experience at about four or five of really dying to sing and dying to play that came from no one telling me to do so.
