There's no difference between lyrics and poetry. words are words. the only difference is the people who are in academic positions and call themselves poets and have an academic stance. they've got something to lose if they say it's all poetry; if there's not music to it, and you have to wear a certain kind of checkered shirt or something like that. it's all the same. lyrics are lyrics, poetry is poetry, lyrics are poetry, and poetry is lyrics. they are interchangeable to me.

I hope that people can relate to my music, it's very relatable, it's very fun, it's very honest. it's very, very, honest. i know that my fans will probably learn a lot about me by listening to my music, if they really listen to the lyrics. i'm sure they'll learn about a new side to me, it's all very honest, i don't put on any... there's no fake-ness to it, it's very real and i hope my fans can relate to it and that it's enjoyable for all ages.

A state of consciousness is characteristically very transitory; an idea that is conscious now is no longer so a moment later, although it can become so again under certain conditions that are easily brought about.
