“Nobody in the world, nobody in history, has ever gotten their freedom by appealing to the moral sense of the people who were oppressing them.”
-Assata Shakur

"You want the world to be fair so you pretend that it is"

Seeing humans struggle to live together and refuse to offer each other equal rights and freedoms show me exactly why we haven't spent a single day on earth without war.

I used to think it would be cool to see the end of the world, but it actually sucks hard

I write lyrics and poetry differently, they are not the same.

It takes courage to live in the present. Not fearing the future is brave.

The American Dream was always a ruse to sell bootstraps. Don't act like like it died, it was never a living thing.

I'm fully aware that I will finish last with the other nice guys but I cannot excuse myself for acting any other way.

The big picture is so out of your control that it's a waste of time and energy worrying about it.

Take your music seriously, but not yourself. That's a powerful combination.

The challenge for songwriters is, and has always been, to make meaningful art in a world that doesn't have time for it.

I will never think someone is cool because of something they bought. The person that designed it, the person that made it, they're cool.

You gotta do something to earn my respect.
