I think you can always win if you're true to yourself.

Every experience that you go through kinda shapes who you are.

I don't think that anyone should ever give up on whatever it is that they dream of. Obstacles will come their way, but everything is a learning experience and it all works out for the good anyway.

I don't have to have my tits out to try to sell some kind of record. I can just be me and give songs that I'm into.

When you're young and you don't grow up with a silver spoon in your mouth, what do you do? You do stuff that you're positive about to help you better your family and your life. That's basically where I was. I wanted to sing, that's what I knew I could do. With that, I really didn't know what that meant. Along the journey I realized what that meant and why I wanted to sing.

I think you can always win if you're true to yourself.

That one person that says "I heard your stuff and I really like this." It really touches my heart because it's what I love to do. I'd rather do it for the people than do it for a machine, a company that just wants to make money.
