I keep letting you back in. How can I explain myself? As painful as this thing has been, I just can't be with no one else.

Now you are meeting another Lauryn, so it's good to be reintroduced.

I had an economic system imposed on me.

Just because I have a guitar, it doesn't mean that changes me. I still rhyme, I still sing.

I didn't have that intense ambition to be a musician or an actress. I just enjoyed it. And by enjoying it, because I loved it, it enabled me to get better at what I was doing, because there was a love behind it.

I don't need anybody to market or promote me. If people don't want to hear this music, then it's not for them. You cannot please everybody.

The less I have, the freer I am to do whatever I want to do.
