We're not steadfast about not repeating mistakes.

If you ask me what people want from me, they would probably just want me to be true to what I'm doing.

Oh my god what am I doing with my life?

Everyone just wants to feel good, and I don't think that all music is designed to make you feel good. Sometimes it's to make you feel amped, or angry, or nervous. I was listening to a lot of Public Enemy when I made the record.

Just when you think you should start accepting that you're becoming an adult, all your childhood fantasies come true.

I hope that people take away hope, maybe not in an obvious sense, but in the form of hearing somebody who's genuinely fighting to stay above water. And in that fight, there's hope. In that fight, maybe there's positivity.

I would feel pretty embarrassed if I was doing what I do and I wasn't at least attempting the eloquent translation of the human experience in some way.
