Everything in life is not all beautiful, not all fun. There is lots of killing and drugs. To me, a perfect album talks about the hard stuff and the fun and caring stuff.

It's a struggle for every young Black man. You know how it is, only God can judge us.

Today, people struggle to find what's real. Everything has become so synthetic that a lot of people, all they want is to grasp onto hope.

It's hard enough losing without the confusion of knowing I tried.

Life is a climb and it's a struggle getting to the top but the drop to the bottom can be quick and so I think you have to embrace every moment of the day.

Whose heart the accustom'd sight of death makes hard.
