The only thing that can kill me is death, that's the only thing that can ever stop me, is death, and even then my music will live forever.

Nobody should be hitting lotto for 36 million dollars when we got people starving in the streets. That is not idealistic, that's just real. That is just stupid. There's no way Michael Jackson, or whoever should have thousands, millions, billions of dollars and we got people broke with two-three jobs and still can't pay bills on time. There's no way! No way these people should have planes when people don't have houses, apartments, shacks, drawers, pants!!!

My mama always used to tell me: 'If you can't find somethin' to live for, you best find somethin' to die for.'

When the charge first came up, I hated black women. Then, going to trial, I started seeing the black women that was helping me. It's mostly black female guards. They treat me with human respect.

I'm not a gangsta rapper. I rap about things that happen to me. I got shot five times. People was trying to kill me.

In my mind I'm a blind man doin' time.

Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live, and let's change the way we treat each other.
