Some say the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice I say the darker the flesh then the deeper the roots.

I'm a reflection of the community.

Of course I'm going to say 'I'm a thug,' that's because I came from the gutter and I'm still here!

I am society's child. This is how they made me and now I'm sayin' what's on my mind and they don't want that. This is what you made me, America.

I'm 23 years old. I might just be my mother's child, but in all reality, I'm everybody's child. Nobody raised me; I was raised in this society.

Sometimes I am two people. Johnny is the nice one. Cash causes all the trouble. They fight.
