The big stars in rap, they were too big, so when my rap generation started, it was about bringing you inside my apartment. It wasn't about being a rap star; it was about anything other than.

Turnin' nothin' into somethin' is God work, and you get nothin' without struggle and hard work

You have to keep your vision clear, cause only a coward lives in fear.

Much success to you, even if you wish me the opposite.

No idea is original, there's nothing new under the sun, it's never what you do, but how it's done

You lose money chasing women, never lose women chasing money...

I never brag, how real i keep it, cause thats the best secret.

Beyond the walls of intelligence, life is defined

My success symbolizes loyalty, great friends, Dedication, hard work, routine builds character. In a world full of snakes, rats and scavengers

Some seek fame cause they need validation, Some say hating is confused admiration.

It's a thin line between paper and hate, Friends and snakes, nine millis and thirty-eights, Hell or the pearly gates...I was destined to come, Predicted, blame God, He blew breath in my lungs.

He can come up with the most exotic things I’ve ever seen or heard of every time he blinks his eyes.

As you meet the needs of others, you will never lack anything.

You only get to keep what you refuse to let go of

Be thine own palace or the world's thy jail.

You can learn a lot, watching things eat.

We are asking the wrong question. The issue is not who should be trusted with all the power of the Presidency. Instead, we must ask how much power any candidate can be trusted with.

Talking pictures are like putting lip rouge on the Venus de Milo.

Don't stay in one place too long. It was the only way to stay ahead of the sadness.
