Despite everything, no one can dictate who you are to other people.

I am a firm believer in reincarnation for people who either have more work to do or have so much debt to pay back that they have to be here.

The Internet is completely over.

Look, you see those groups talkin' about negativity and anger, and they'd do that for two albums, and then you'd see them change up. I knew they couldn't do a Kurt Cobain on their whole career. You can't stay like that all the time. It's like when Hammer tried to go gangster. You can't be something that you're not.

The only thing I could think of - because I really don't like categories - but the only thing I could think of is inspirational, and I think music that is from the heart falls right into that category.

What people have to realize is that if one has a firm belief in God and the spirit then one does not make statements that are negative and untrue.

Sometimes it [music in my head] is a curse, but it's also a blessing. It is a gift that I am completely grateful for. That's why I keep [making music], because I don't want to be ungrateful for the gift.
