My only scheme was to be a rapper.

And all those who look down on me I'm tearing down your balcony.

At least have the decency in you / To leave me alone, when you freaks see me out / In the streets when I'm eating or feeding my daughter

Anybody with a sense of humor is going to put on my album and laugh from beginning to end.

Behind every sucessful person lies a pack of haters

Honestly, I never really put the mic down.

With every song, all the elements have to work. First, the beat has to be great - you start there. You start with the music, and then the ideas follow. Then you start thinking of rhymes, and then you record it, and sometimes - this happens to me a lot - it doesn't come out as good as it did in my head when I first wrote it.
