If I'm not writing songs about things I've actually been through, it ruins the idea of making music to me.

I'm not going to be like a rapper and mention the people I'm talking about in my songs by name.

I want to be the band everyone knows that goes hardest. Plays the hardest, parties the hardest, lives the hardest, loves the hardest, does everything the hardest, harder than anybody else.

LOVE WHAT YOU DO! Whatever that is, put your entire heart & soul into it, or don't do it at all.

Be your own person because no one can take that away from you.

Your uniqueness is your strength. Remember that. Don't mold yourself to others or to what others think. You're an individual. You're special.

I don't know why people have to categorize things in music under music. It's music and it's music and it's music. When you start putting genres on things, I think it's completely ridiculous, and I hate that.
