I didn't choose the thug life, the thug life chose me.

My raps are a decision, rabble rousing, spiritual, like gospel music. I don't want to dance. We have so many things to deal with, we need to talk straight up and down.

And did you ever stop to think that im old enough to go to war but i aint old enough to drink.

I am being ripped off, because I've never lied to the press. Just as much truth I bring to my work, a journalist should bring that much truth to their work.

There ain't no place like paradise.

We probaly in hell already, our dumb asses not knowin, everybody kissin ass to go to heaven aint goin.

I'd be in my hotel room, smoking too much, drinking, going to clubs, just being numb. That was being in jail to me. I wasn't happy at all on the streets. That was the addict speaking.
