I can never turn my back on a city that made me.

I didn't have nothin' going for me... school, home... until I found something I loved, which was music, and that changed everything.

I'm thankful for the talent in which God gave me and I'm thankful for the environment that he placed me.

I don't even know how to speak up for myself, because I don't really have a father who would give me the confidence or advice.

Just be yourself man, be proud of who you are.

I come from Detroit where it's rough and I'm not a smooth talker.
