I believe in love, but believe it's love that keeps beating me down.
I'm a fairly tormented artist, and I'm less willing to indulge myself in self-pity, outside of songwriting.
When I was a kid growing up in New York, I was pretty unaware of racism. I think when we're young - before we lose our innocence - we're sort of unaware of the more flawed qualities of each other.
I hate to admit it, but we're badass.
Because life is short but sweet for certain
I'm a very vicious critic of myself.
