What is a normal childhood? We weren’t rich, we were pretty middle-class. My dad survived from job to job; with him taking care of so many relatives, he couldn’t save any money.
I’m not wearing a golden sombrero.
I’m a peaceful man with bad intentions.
People can’t figure me out, they can’t process me, I don’t expect them to. You can’t process me with the normal brain.
I think the power of the mind is amazing, and we’ve barely scratched the surface of what it can do.
It’s been a tsunami of media and I’ve been riding it on a mercury surfboard.
I think my passion is misinterpreted as anger sometimes. And I don’t think people are ready for the message that I’m delivering, and delivering with a sense of violent love.

I usually have a song in my head. I’m thinking music, I’m thinking lyrics. Music helps me get to those moments. The moments between the moments.
The last time I used? What do you mean? I used my toaster this morning.

I’ve always been a little skittish about death. On certain days I’m okay with it. On other days it’s like, “Really? I have to? No, man, not me.”
