All about my riches/ My name should be Richard
I hate failure and I am in love with achievement.
Hip-Hop aint dead, it just had a heart attack.
Life is a lot like skateboarding.
God can judge me, I don't need a jury. Nothing standing in my way, like nothing's my security.
As long as people remember me forever, that will be enough for me.
It's all good when we making love, all I ask is don't take our love for granted, it's granted.
