I still follow that model: just go hard every day, and take it one step at a time.

Through my life, [there have been] a lot of devils and a lot of situations, so I'm just goin' hard, maintaining, regardless of what people got to say about Ace Hood.

We've got goals we're trying to reach, and "Overtime" is the only way to do it, and "Champion" is the only thing we're tryin' to be.

Money the root of evil guess I'm the devil then. God bless my soul to rest.

I want certain things out of life. I want my grand kids, my kids' kids, being able to inherit what I've worked so hard to build.

Due to success I started losing friends.

In order to perfect your craft, you've gotta go hard, you've gotta go overtime.

There's a lot of people that try to come between my clique and try to stop what we're doin', but we got no mercy for 'em.

We're gonna keep on doin' what we're doin', and we're gonna get it by all means. That's just what "ruthless" means to me. Everybody's got their own definition, but I'm ruthless with this music.

I'm a young dude, and there ain't too many people who are doin' it like I'm doin' it. There ain't no others in my lane - I am the future of this music.

The budgets are runnin' low, the streets ain't really got money no more, things are just dryin' up; I just felt like people needed some motivation, so I took 'em "Overtime."

Dreams are debris from bad day. Dreams are poems by bad poets that never got written.

Faith in God gives boundless hope.

Sometimes life may look complicated than it is, but you'll have to play it just the way it is and make it proper, the way you would wish it to be in your own words.

No ruby slippers here, just a lot of supernatural jackassess.

Atheism has been on the rise for years now, and the Bible of the atheists is The Origin of Species.

I would pay to have those adjudications enrolled into the federal background system so we could detect people who are mentally ill before they buy a gun. That is a real problem.

It was very serious and I wanted to do something really different so there was this comedy called TOP SECRET.

I am the reflection of my source which is magnificent in all ways.

I like singing as much as I like acting, and all through high school I thought I might be a Broadway singer.
