I always try to write a song, I never just want to write a record. Originally I was not writing songs for myself. ....And I can say this, most of the people who have recorded my songs are songwriters themselves. ... Even if I don't release it myself, somebody else might hear it and want to record it. When you write a song, it gives it that potential. When you write a song, a song has longevity. ... So I wanted to sing inspirational music, and that's exactly how I approached it-only the words have been changed to declare my relationship with God. Songwriting is my gift from God.

Before you ask some girl for her hand now, keep your freedom for as long as you can now. My Mama told me, you better shop around.

When you write a song, a song has longevity

We're all going to be victims of temptation at several points in our lives.

Now if I appear to be carefree it's only to camouflage my sadness. In order to keep my pride I try to cover the hurt with a show of gladness.

I don't like you, but I love you.

Everybody has their own soul.
