“I can't control what people think. I'm not trying to manipulate people's thoughts or sentiments. I write all the time. You have to experience life, make observations, and ask questions. It's machine-like how things are run now in hip-hop, and my ambitions are different.”
“No bird has ever uttered note That was not in some first bird's throat; Since Eden's freshness and man's fall No rose has been original.”
