I don't have a message. You already have all these people telling you how to live, who to be, what to wear, what to drive, what drugs to do - I just want people to see what I see.

I live to die; better that than to live a lie.

The work is the understanding of the people that you're speaking for. The further you get away from that, the further you are from the work.

I wake up sometimes with an idea and then I write it down. It's not necessarily easy, but when you focus on something it comes.

I don't really have a focus, I just make music.

When I was a kid if you didn't have "Lil" in front of your name, you were trash.

Music was never really something I wanted to do, so I never thought about it as a kid.
