A Dramatic Thing, The First Time You

The Way I Was Raised And The People That I Grew Up Around For The Most Part Were Very Humble People, And I Appreciate All That They Taught Me, And Their Energy And Their Magnanimity Help Keep Me Grounded.

When I Stopped Trying To Write Songs, That's When I'm Able To Begin Writing Songs. You Have To Just Use Your Life, And The Things Around You For Your Inspiration.

I've Had To Work Very Hard, And I Don't Really Have A Category Or Fit Into Any Niche, So Each Time I Come Out With A New Record, It's Like, I'm A New Guy.

A Lot Of People Don't Listen To The Lyrics, Really.

You Need To Open Up So That More Comes Through. And You Can Just Feel That When Your Ego Is Not In The Way And When You're Letting It Be What It Wants To Be. You Have To Let It Be What It Wants To Be As Opposed To What You Think It Should Be.
