I knew exactly what I was doing. You can't accidentally take a whole bottle of pills.

Have a little faith. Don't give up.

I seemed so different from other kids; I grew up in church and felt a connection with God, and a lot of kids my age really didn't understand that.

It's always good when you can bring two artists together who are totally different.

I always say you've only got one life to live, and you're not promised a tomorrow. So, you might as well just have a good time with it.

When I realized I was having trouble reading, I was too embarrassed to ask for help. Some teachers believed in me, but I just wasn't focused on school - I was into the music and trying to please my dad.

I'm very soulful. I grew up singing in church. When I sing a song, I like to feel what I'm singing.
