I'm not one to call out an individual and say "I don't think that is honest." Who am I to know what is in their heart while they are singing it?

This kind of passionate faith can be painful. Not caring is easy. Caring hurts. Caring costs you something. But without this sort of faith, you will never create to your fullest potential. Faith is a gift. Like I've said, felt belief is not necessarily something that you choose to have or not to have. But it is a gift that you can open yourself to receive.

I think everybody is different. We are trying to be ourselves, and other people are trying to be themselves. We all share commonalities with each other, but all of us have different thumbprints. We all have our own unique things.

It's hard to make a living in music, so a lot of times in the arts it's safer to kind of fit into a box.

I think I'm just trying to be myself and write songs that are honest. That's what I hear in artist's that I like.

You make beautiful things, You make beautiful things out of the dust

Pain is as common as skin, we all experience it. It unites us all. Fortunately, that's not the whole story.
