Can't nobody take my pride. Can't nobody hold me down.

Don't chase the paper, chase the dream.

I think that you have to believe. That's one of my biggest mantras, is believe. I wouldn't be here if I didn't believe in myself.

But treat dimes fair and I'm bigger than the city lights down in times square

I love New York, it's always been my home. It has everything - music, fashion, entertainment, impressive buildings, huge parks, street cafes. And it's very international, with people from all over the world.

At an early age, I started my own paper route. Once I saw how you could service people and do a good job and get paid for it, I just wanted to be the best I could be in whatever I did.

Put up your guards, keep faith in God, I promise you all the world will be ours.
