There is more that meets the eye, I see the soul that is inside.
I'm gonna live my life. I won't watch the time go by. I won't keep it inside. Freak out, let it go.
I know my fans look up to me and that's why I make my songs so personal; it's all about things I've experienced and things I like or hate. I write for myself and hope that my fans like what I have to say.

My mom made me go to a Britney Spears concert when I was young. And I was like, 'No, I don't want to!' she was like, 'You're going to be a performer, you need to see other people.'
