I'm a diamond in the rough, a shiny piece of coal trying to reach my goal.

I'm the music guy, I get to wear the music hat, but being able to be that guy in the room is a thrill at this level and caliber.

I still look at that water, and I look at Moana's hair, and I'm just like, "How is this even happening?" It's such an incredible mix of technical mastery and wizardry. It's really incredible. It's layers and layers and layers. It's not unlike building a musical. It's really pretty cool.

I'm a diamond in the rough, a shiny piece of coal trying to reach my goal.

I'm not going to hang out with celebrities, I'm not going to parties. I have two songs due for Moana next week, and I'm going to go and spend some time with Maui and Moana in the ocean, in my mind.

The problem is I got a lot of brains but no polish.

I'm past patiently waitin,' I'm passionately smashin' every expectation, every action's an act of creation.
