It's funny, I get a little quieter with time. I don't want to chase my tail and one day repeat myself and repeat myself and one day have kids going to college and not have memories that I should, because I was too busy doing my thing.

If I find something I like, I'll chase it and see what comes out the other side. Once a song gets momentum and gets away from you, that's a good sign.

Don’t you rob yourself of what you’re feeling; don’t rob yourself of all that you could be.

Being able to scream at the top of my lungs in front of people is very therapeutic. It is a great gift for me to be able to do that.

We look to our leaders once we elect them to either lead us in the right direction or at least not crush us.

It's so hard for me to even acknowledge America without talking about race. If you look at our society, if you look at the prisons, if you look at the poverty and which side of the line the majority of people are, we have to acknowledge how we divide ourselves up, that there's racism alive in this country. And it's not in the law. It's in our minds. And that's what we have to actively battle.

Why won't you run in the rain and play, let the tears splash all over you?
