Sometimes your fans are way deeper than you are. They think you meant something like this big power-of-the-world thing that you said, but really you were just trying to find a word to rhyme with another word.
People see you on screen and they like you, but they never really get a chance to meet you. When you're doing music, you know you have to go sit at in-stores, and you're actually in the street, so there's more of a hands-on kind of thing.
What's cooler than being cool?
Askin what happened to the feelin that her and me had, I pray so much about it, need some knee pads.
They can bite, but cannot be us, They can come and pick up little slang but cannot see us, You ought to be ashamed trying to fit in my adidas, So Run like DMC like you don't know you got no heater
Now, my oral illustration be like clitoral stimulation to the female gender Ain't nothin' better Let me know when it's wet enough to enter
I live by the beat like you live check to check. If you don't move your feet then I don't eat, So we like neck to neck.
Your white tee, well to me, looks like a nightgown; Make your mama proud, take that thing two sizes down.
It's harder to be a success, globally, and be artistic. Harder to have that balance than just to be artistic when nobody understands you.

The rap game has to save itself. Everybody's saving it. People like Lil Wayne is saving it. He's bringing energy to it.
With music, you can portray a certain thing, but in film, sometimes you have to let yourself go to a point where that can be attractive to a person, that you're willing to let yourself go that much. It works both ways.
As a rapper, I don't freestyle. I used to freestyle when I used to get drunk, and it didn't matter.
I'm a vegan, but I like to look good, too.
