I know my past is not what my future holds.

When I was performing on streets, there was no pressure. People accepted me. They loved me without knowing me.

There are miracles in life I must achieve. But first I know it starts inside of me.

You're younger, you might want to go to clubs and kick it, but as you get older, you start seeing that life has more meaning to it. The people that you love are the people you want to start trusting and start wanting them to trust you and start respecting them.

I was the highest-paid street performer, probably, in the history of Chicago. I was making like $800 a day.

People can say whatever they want about you without knowing the facts. They can criticize you without even knowing you, and hate you when they don't even know you. All of a sudden, you're, like, the bin Laden of America. Osama bin Laden is the only one who knows exactly what I'm going through.

I just want to touch your soul, let me pour into you. Fill you with my joy, and make you feel brand new.
