I thought about you all the time. I used to pray that you’d live to be a hundred years old. I didn’t know. I didn’t know that you were ashamed of me.

I want to give up my bearings, slip out of who i am, shed everything, the way a snake discards old skin.

I wished I could be alone in my room, with my books, away from these people.

I don't know what this feather means, the story of it, but I know it means he was thinking of me. For all these years. He remembered me.

He stopped, turned. He cupped his hands around his mouth. ''For you a thousand times over!'' he said. Then he smiled his Hassan smile and disappeared around the corner.

A woman who will be like a rock in a riverbed, enduring without complaint, her grace not sullied but shaped by the turbulence that washes over her.

Love was a damaging mistake and its accomplice,hope, a treacherous illusion".

My fans will tell you all day that I can rap. That's all I need.

I'm a goofball and a comedian

And I try to piece the puzzle of the universe, Split an eight of shrooms just so I could see the universe !

So with the freestyles, I just do it for fun. If I hear something that I like, I'm rapping on it.

Girls that I dated, it's ok I am not mad yo Unless you stabbed me in the heart, no love ho.

Emotion is what hip-hop thrives on. Don't you want your music to have emotion in it? People like to always throw some negative cloud over it. Doesn't even make sense.

I don't like to power trip, but when you're a boss you have to fight for certain things.

To be considered a celebrity, there's a certain lifestyle that comes with that.

Dont call me a rapper, I’m an artist. Update your minds. I ‘INCORPORATE’ hip hop elements because I am part MC, but I am all things musical. All things melodically beautiful.

I have to be ahead of myself so I don't just fit into the realm of everybody who sounds like me.

I'll never get why the earth is a puzzle that i'll never fit.

I never knew the media would be so interested in my personal life.

I'm a wizard and I know it.

I was always the ugly duckling; I never got attention from girls.

I'm usually always thinking about the cons.

Struggle is the enemy, but weed is the remedy.

But i was high, when i finally had the chance to see, everything thats pretty aint’ always good for me.

If I never am better then Kanye, in my brain, I'm always going to be trying to be, forever and ever until the day that I die.

It's the same old thing getting lost Day 'N' Nite young and lost in the pain.

I'm well known because I do music at a professional level, and a certain magnitude.

Blood sweat and tears homie I'm made of it

I was definitely high-fiving death a couple of times.

Help Kids Not Feel Alone And Stop Kids From Committing Suicide

I'm confident in my art.

Living life is a choice. Making a difference in someone else's isn't.

The devil tryna rip out my soul. Lost my soul. I'll see you in hell. I see the devil linger on, stuck in my hell.

I'm a people person when I'm out, but I'm a homebody. I like my time and peace and quiet.

I've got some issues that nobody can see and all of these emotions are pouring out of me I bring them to the light for you it's only right

Snoop [Dog] is my favorite artist of all time. He's someone I look up to.

If you wanna help, inspire, uplift, don't point the blame and talk down,

Gentle with the drugs, heavy with the love

In music, you collaborate with people. It's supposed to be a mutually beneficial thing.

It's true that the pain makes people change

I probably could have gone in depth about a lot of things, but then the album would've been longer. You can't have a short album when you're talking about suicide and cocaine. That's not going to be a short album.

The people I met and the places I been Are all what make me the man I so proudly am.

Dim them lights get it in pimp tight do wat i do i lace up my own nikes.

And if I die before I wake I pray the lord my soul to take But please don't cry Just know that I have made these songs for you.

I am happy, thats just the saddest lie

When you try to convince yourself that something doesn't bother you, it usually bothers you more.

It's definitely the biggest lesson - not to take things personally. But it's also the hardest one.

Wake up, life does get tough. No need to stress, holds you back too much.

Running from your problems is a race you'll never win.
