过去并没有死去；它甚至还没有过去。

I'm not a creature of your government's creation. I'm not a creature of any government's creation. I answer to a higher power, and that higher power is music.

The realities are that, you know, as a black man, Barack can get shot going to the gas station.

爱是世界上最重要的事情，但音乐也紧随其后。

我永远无法安全；我总是试图逆流而上。每当我完成一件事，我就会设定一个更高的目标。这就是我如何走到今天的位置。

译文：人生要及时行乐，等到老了再看花，只会觉得凄凉。
