believe people ems
Society and the system and politicians don't want people to be aware of things. They want people to believe what they have to show 'em.
waiting realizing old-days
I don't have to wait to realize the good old days.
soul substance corporations
Today, music is great for entertainment, but it is lacking soul; it's lacking substance, and it's difficult to find good stuff. There are too many corporate interests. It's not about the actual music because it's about the corporation, and music just becomes part of a package.
running care four
I run four times a week. And I don't count miles - I don't do that. I don't care about that. I care about how I feel, and I run according to how I feel.
rights government voice
I've spent a lot of time in America since Sept. 11, 2001. Being here, I was noticing that the people, who in the '60s used to voice their opinions about their rights, are much different today. People are afraid to voice opposition to the government in a mass way.
country together problem
If African countries can unite and pull resources together, then that will be the best thing we could ever do for the problems in Africa including AIDS.
fighting talking action
Screaming, it's not me. I tried it before! Action is more my thing. Not talking. It's hard for me to have word fights, fighting with words. I'd rather just listen.
independent artist decision
My best business decision was to be independent as a musician and artist. My worst was compromising on certain aspects of a deal for the sake of other members of my group when I shouldn't have, because I was right in the end.
running thinking people
The people don't run the system; the people are victims of the system. The people choose the leaders thinking that they will help them. But when they turn around, there is no help.
Nobody owns me or my music.
children add wonderful
Children are wonderful, and they add to my whole life.
children burden
Children are not a burden.
want way albums
I'm not a slave to the recording industry. I have the freedom to make an album that I want to make and do it the way I want.
shine-on shining sun
I follow the universe; I follow G-d. G-d made the sun, and the sun shines on everyone.
