I was competitive in the ring and hip-hop is competitive too... I think rappers condition themselves like boxers, so they all kind of feel like they're the champ.

People often say I have so much energy, that I never stop; but that's what it takes to accomplish your goals.

When I nearly died it made me think – this can happen again any second. I better hurry and do what I want. I started to live like I never lived before. When the fear of death is gone, then nothing can bother you and nobody can stop you.

Be prepared to do whatever you have to do. If you get put in a situation where your back is up against the wall let your gun go off.

I think I'll be going to Heaven, because I had good intentions. But my actions are another thing.

My confidence allows me to do things my way and help people make a decision. People like the idea of me just being me.

The greatest fear people have is that of being themselves.
