My music is not for everyone. It's only for the stong-willed, the [street] soldiers music. It's not like party music- I mean, you could gig to it, but it's spiritual. My musi is spiritual. It's like Negro spiituals, except for the fact that I'm not saying 'We shall Overcome.' I'm saying that we are overcome.

I didn't introduce thug life to America. Thug life is America. I don't get why the whole world is fearing me. I am scared, but so are they. It's like I am having a panic attack cause I have 15,000 people wanting to do what I want, listing to everything I say.

Can't nobody touch me right now. Maybe next month all of this will be over. But this month I'm takin' every movin' target out.

You never know what's going on in somebody's mind. There's a lot of pressure on someone growing up. You have to watch it.

Though are hands are chained like they are, they haven't taken music from us yet. So that's how I'll fight. People tell me don't quit like everyone else. I wont have no fear.

Got shot 5 times but I'm still breathing... living proof there's a God if you need a reason.

It's hard to care when no one loves you.
