I had to pawn my clothes just to pay my rent.

I don't think any of us really knows why we're here. But I think we're supposed to believe we're here for a purpose.

I heard someone say that all black people got rhythm. Bullshit.

Now Listen You know I work so hard, all day long Everything I try to do, Seem to always turn out wrong That's why I wanna stop by on my way home and say Let's go get stoned

Music's been around a long time, and there's going to be music long after Ray Charles is dead. I just want to make my mark, leave something musically good behind. If it's a big record, that's the frosting on the cake, but music's the main meal.

The important thing is to feel your music, really feel it and believe it.
