Once I come up with the concept, the rest of the song just comes.

My whole thing is loyalty. Loyalty over royalty; word is bond.

Plans never go well for me. I just live every day like I aint gonna live the next one.

I've always been my own person. I don't do what people want me to do. Like, if you want me to do that, I'm going to do the complete opposite.

When you really work hard for something that you genuinely and truly love, and you don't want it to fail, it's a good feeling to see it do good.

I have the words already. What I am seeking is the perfect order of words in the sentence. You can see for yourself how many different ways they might be arranged.

If people are not afraid of dying, why threaten them with death?

I feel like I just grabbed a big juicy worm with a right sharp hook in the middle of it.

There was a time when I thought I turned terrible things over in my mind because I read and wrote too many scary stories. (Note self: start writing about unicorns and bunnies)

I've done that kind of stuff in records, where you start going back and you want to just redo everything, destroy everything, because you think it all sucks and you can do it better.
