I think that with the times changing, labels do actually need to get that and stop signing all these crap artists.

Maybe I had a 'secret identity,' but then when you think about it, don't we all? A part of ourselves very few people ever get to see. The part we think of as 'me.' The part that deals with the big stuff. Makes the real choices. The part everything else is a reflection of.
People think, for some reason, that I don't care about creativity and art, or helping people.

I want you to think about a person that's just trying to help people.

God is giving a plan I think to me that is not really a plan. The problem is that I think the plan that the Lord would have us follow is hard for people to understand.
