You can't take no breaks.
Man doesn't dictate what you do or how you do it. If you believe in God, believe in God; have your faith in him. That's where my faith lies.
Daddy wasn't there for me, so I had to grind every day.
Outside of these doors, it is the real world. Someone tries to get you to do something wrong, run.
The only thing that could pull me away, was hard work.
You don't have to win it, just don't lose it.
You can talk about what you see from the outside; it's hard to tell me who I am when you're just looking at me with a football uniform on. That's a totally different person. That's my job, that's it.
And that's my honour, that's what my goal is, to always keep my mum's name ringing, because I know what sacrifices she went through for me.
Bottom line, your body is a temple, and you have to treat it that way. That's how God designed it.
In any war who pulls their general out? No one.
Will you be remembered, how would you be remembered, why wouldn’t you fight for the greatest achievement ever?
With the mindset that I give everything I've got for the man that's next to me, not me, cause I know what I got while I'm by myself, but when I step on the field, when I step on the turf, what am I willing to sacrifice?
Let me explain my job very simply: My job is to line up five, seven, 10 yards in front of a man and run into him at full speed.
The journeythe journey, I promise you, is the greatest thing ever. The destination always takes care of itself.
