I've learned that you can't control everything in life, and that's okay.

I don't sing to be perfect, I sing to be real.

I'm not a role model. I'm a father, a husband, a son, a brother, a friend. I'm a human being. I make mistakes. I have flaws. I'm not perfect. But I try to be the best person I can be.

Understanding inequality requires looking beyond averages.

The greatest reward is seeing people enjoy something I've created.
