I never sit down to write. When I'm moved, I do it. I just wait for it to come. You just hear it. I can't really describe writing. It's in my head. I don't think about the styles. I write whatever comes out and I use whatever kind of instrumentation works for those songs...A lot of people don't listen to the lyrics, really. A lot of people pretty much only listen to the chorus.
Lenny KravitzYou can start something, do it, and believe that that's what you're doing, but then the inspiration comes and it's like, "Nope, this is what it is."
Lenny KravitzFor me a watch is a really beautiful instrument. I don't so much care what time it is but I do love watches, and I love how they're constructed.
Lenny KravitzI wasn't the kind of person that liked waiting for autographs or following them, I just liked to go to the shows, study their records, driving many, many hours to different states to go to concerts.
Lenny KravitzA lot of my songs deal with spirituality and God, and I guess if you're in tune with that, you'll read into it.
Lenny KravitzI'm very much about the environment, I'm very much about health, about being able to, at the very least, eat organic, whole foods that are healthy for us. And then, of course, everyone being able to eat and at least have a humane way to live. There's enough for everybody, but unfortunately, there's a lot of greed and a lot of ego.
