I've always wanted to be a songwriter and a storyteller and somebody who conveys a feeling to the listener or the viewer.

I don't feel there's any kind of pain in my life.

Limp Bizkit is my main priority, but my side project, Black Light Burns, is still a labor of love. We have a record written, so we'll see when that comes out. When we tour, we go out in a van and trailer with me driving.

I have nothing to complain about.

I don't feel like singing should be taken lightly. It's one of the hardest things I've ever done, but it's coming along.

I've accepted the fact that Limp Bizkit is my band, one that I'm a part of, a band that I've built from the beginning. It does me no good to be in somebody else's band playing their music, like Marilyn Manson or Korn. Being in Limp Bizkit allows me to be myself.

It's always a pleasure when you can compose guitar parts from a strong vocal and not just put the melody on top of guitar riffs.
