I used to take Sharpies and draw on my pillowcases, and then go to sleep on them and wake up with red marker from the drool all on my face.

I was always the ugly duckling; I never got attention from girls.

My whole thing is just to put out positive messages in the music, give people something that can change their lives.

My fans will tell you all day that I can rap. That's all I need.

It's the same old thing getting lost Day 'N' Nite young and lost in the pain.

If I never am better then Kanye, in my brain, I'm always going to be trying to be, forever and ever until the day that I die.

I have all these revelations as I'm writing. Each song is like a chapter of my diary.
