As a songwriter, I don't rush. I may sit on lyrics for two years before the music hits.

I grew up listening to spiritual music, Blind Willie Johnson and folk.

There's no room in my life for religion. Religion is separation and segregation of God. How can you segregate the Almighty?

My choice is what I choose to do and if I'm causing no harm it shouldn't bother you. Your choice is who you choose to be and if you're causin' no harm, then your alright with me.

If interviews are just interviews or if music is just music, why are we even doing it? You only get so many hours in a lifetime, man.

My head works in music, so there's always music there.

It's not easy for a mother and son to sing a duet. You can't just sing about anything.
