You can't just walk into someone's house and take $15 bucks out of someone's wallet and then walk out with their song. You can't do that. You got to know the difference between stealing from being cool to the band and paying them what they're deserved.

I'm on this planet for another forty years at the most and I got a baby and a wife and I'm worried about their future and that kind of fear, that anger is spilling into my lyrics, I can't just sit back and talk about myself until I'm dead.

I'm not a perfect song writer, but I am song writing problems with dynamics, instrument change and arrangements.

The fans have made my dreams come true. For that, I'm super grateful.

I just want to touch people's ears. I want to touch people's lives. I want to give them something they can release to towards their anger.

I call my wife and talk to my children four or five times a day. I've surrounded myself with great people and friends, plus I'm always willing to make amends.

To speak up and stand by my guns the entire time...To stand by my methodology. That's why I kind of made myself the producer.
