There is a monumental difference between being alive and living. You should never settle for the first.

A lot of my old stuff is pretty simple. The new stuff is slightly more in-depth.

Maybe 80 percent of what we conceive to be a song idea or the meaning of a song is not exactly what the artist meant most of the time. It's not bad - people can take what they want from it.

I change lyrics to the songs all the time, too. I don't know if it matters in a lot of ways because you can take what you want from it.

It's hard to know if what you do is actually working for anyone else or not. There's so much music out there. Why would someone ever listen to what I do?

If a record label will sign you in order for you to be moulded into something that can make more money for them, then you should get out of there if you're that artist.

If we all can figure out how to work together then we are the embodiment of salvation for our entire planet. We have the capabilities of it. That's the gist of it.
