I don't talk about these things if I haven't lived them, and I've hurt people in my life. It's something I still have to think about when I sleep at night.

I learned, when I look in the mirror and tell my story, that I should be myself and not peep whatever everybody is doing.

I wanted the next family to hurt, because you made my family hurt. Them emotions were still running in me... Whether I'm a rap star or not, if I still feel like that, then I'm part of the problem rather than the solution.

Although the butterfly and the caterpillar are completely different, they are one and the same.

Just let me be me, That's the only way I know.

Sometimes you have the trends that's not that cool. You may have certain artists portraying these trends and don't really have that lifestyle, and then it gives off the wrong thing. And it becomes kinda corny after awhile. It's really about keeping hip-hop original and pushing away the corniness in it.

I had to come from something, come from a place that was negative and positive but the majority of it is a negative place.
