I never knew that the things I wanted to do would come this fast, but this is the route that God took me, and so I'm excited.

But I also live to perform and I've been performing my whole life, whether it's been in sports or you know in band or with my singing.

I feel like my unwillingness to look for healthy options now is the reason why I have put my weight back on. … Everybody knows how to diet, everybody has had their shares of ups and downs of yo-yo diets, but the hardest thing is to learn really how to make this a lifestyle that you can sustain for the rest of your life.

The schedule is really crazy and the fans are sometimes kind of crazy, but other than that it's been - it's been cool.

I have a greater goal - to empower young people through music education.

I've been blessed because there are a lot of great singers out there that didn't make it past their first album.

The only thing about my life that's really changed is the fact that a lot of people know me now. I'm still the same person.
