I'm good where I am at this moment.
When the night falls, my lonely heart calls.
I love to sing, but it's just not fun anymore.
I know that I could really kill for my daughter. I know because I'm living for her, so I'm fierce when it comes down to it. And I feel the same about my husband and my family. I'm just fiercely protective. It's like, that's my lair and nobody messes with my lair.
My name is not Susan, so watch what you say. If you still need her, then be on your way.
If you say my eyes are beautiful, it's because they are looking at you.
I've got some good saints out there - that's right - that pray for me constantly. You've gotta have that! You do.
I'm just fiercely protective. It's like, that's my lair and nobody messes with my lair.
I would stay in my room for days, for days at times, just trying to get it together, to know what my next phase was going to be.
I almost wish I could be more exciting, that I could match what is happening out there to me.
I don't like it when they [media critics] see me as this little person who doesn't know what to do with herself -- like I have no idea what I want, like I'm just a puppet ... That's demeaning to me, because that ain't how it is, and it never was.
Growing around great musicians, you just can't help it. I identified with it immediately. It was something that was so natural to me that when I started singing, it was almost like speaking.
If I should die this very day, Don't cry...cause on Earth We wasn't meant to stay.
I'm a person who has life and wants to live, and always have.
