You not feeling me, fine. It costs you nothing, pay me no mind.

I will not lose, for even in defeat/There's a valuable lesson learned, so it evens up for me

I smoked some weed, and that's how I finished 'Izzo.'

I don't even like the word politics. It implies something underhanded and I think we need less government.

Electing a black man named Barack Obama President in the same country that elected George W. Bush - twice! - is as far-fetched as a hustler from Marcy performing at that President's inauguration. But it happened.

As sure as this Earth is turnin, souls burnin / In search of higher learnin, turnin in every direction seeking direction / My moms cryin cause her insides are dyin / Her son tryin her patience, keep her heart racin / A million beats a minute, I know I push you to your limit / But it's this game, love—I'm caught up all in it / They make it so you can't prevent it, never give it / You gotta take it, can't fake it, I keep it authentic

You can't turn a bad girl good, but once a good girls' gone bad, she's gone forever.
