daughter mother father
Honor thy Father and thy Mother was once said, but then someone said: What if I don't know your Father? A still voice said: Does that makes him the devil? He is still someone's Father, his name has been changed, but his story is the same. Why hate when we should Celebrate. In this world of two's, you got the Mourning Son, and the Daughter of the Night. They both equal light once you make it through the night. Now, wake the funk up!
people focal-point involved
I'd like to have younger people around me and that I'll be involved with them a lot more now, as opposed to me being the main focal point.
should-have giving trying
I try to bring it across on my record, in my dress, in what I do and what I say because to me humor is important. You should have a dose of that and I guess giving it is what I'm here for.
water waiting care
You have to get up and plant the seed and see if it grows, but you cant just wait around, you have to water it and take care of it.
philosophy sides side-effects
Happiness is a side effect of doing something that has nothing to do with it.
thinking the-end-of-the-day together
Yeah, because what it all boils down to is at the end of the day, we are all riding on the same boat and we have to learn how to deal with each other. I think that the music and what we do in our actions is what can kind of bring us together, hopefully.
important fool stage
Recording wasn't as important to me as actually being to get on stage and act the fool.
art reflection views
Just another point of view, I'm just a reflection of you.
layers higher
There's a magical layer of love that's laced, designed to take us to a higher place.
creating boots max
I wanna keep creating those situations for myself so I don't have to be out front all the time. Then when I do have to be out front, I can do it to the max.
people band used
When you're used to playing with people, when you're in a band, then you're used to playing with each other. People nowadays aren't used to playing with each other because they don't have to.
together today touring
I guess some of today's programming has rubbed off on me because I find myself having to set time around for touring, putting that together and then setting time around for recording.
dog people together
A roast is like a get-together where people come down and talk about you and dog you out, the way you came up, the knucklehead things that you did, stuff like that.
trying originality paid
When I was coming up, we weren't trying to get a hit or get paid, we were just trying to do our thing. The only thing we were really trying to do was to be recognized for our originality.
