I want to make decisions as to where I want to go as an artist, and to get to it in my own way
Whenever this person comes (the right girl) I'm sure you'll feel something you know
Ive never had a celebrity crush! I dont believe in those, really. I feel like you have to get to know the person before you start to feel anything like that. People always think they know celebrities, but how can you when youve never met them?
My whole family has been such a great support, and theyre the ones who have kept me grounded and allowed me to be who I am today.
Its cool when people notice that you make an effort to live certain values.
Every time I would think about my purpose, the answers seemed to come in sounds. In melodies. In feelings.
I don't want a be bird because birds get attacked too much. But it would be cool to fly.
If you have kids and stuff what kind of dad do I wanna be for my kids, and what kind of mom do I want them to have
No one can see your life the way you see it.
Don’t make a sound I’ll be your voice You don’t need to be afraid Anymore I’ll shine a light out in the dark Guide you here no matter how far
And remember, even when you can't sing, you can always plant a tree
So as I think back on it now, I think it is safe to say that music is something you both hear and feel. I also realize that feelings change frequently and that for the most part, they are not a constant. They change from high to low, happy to sad, content to ecstatic and back down again. Not all music has the same purpose, but most music makes you feel "something.
Wasting time just going mindless, watching your charades. When you were younger, did it occur to you 10 years from then you'd act the same age?
Yes, I've worked hard; and yes, I may have achieved a certain level of success-but I'm very clear about the fact that none of it would be worth it without doing the things that keep me close to God.
