I find that moving keeps me optimistic, the idea of what's going to be down the road a bit or around the next bend.

I think there's a danger, for me at least, in retreating and going inward and depression. I have to stay diligent against that tendency.

My head's a carousel of pictures and The spinning never stops.

Why are you scared to dream of god when it's salvation that you want?

We're all too busy working, entertaining ourselves With forty hours, television and prescription pills Well, I take two a day to help my brain behave It never does, but who's to say? At least my doctor gets paid.

I think that hip-hop is more of an individual effort. That means you're an artist from the streets, they expect you to rap about the streets, because that's what happens there.

There's a very fine line between one person's reality and another person's fantasy.
