I Prefer An Ugly Truth To A

I Consider Myself A Laborer, Building My Career Brick Over Brick Under The Sun.

I'm Proud That I've Been Able To Work With Other Artists To Make Sure That The Smallest Voices - The Voices Of Our Children - Have A Chance To Be Heard. Artists Can Reach, Inspire, And Motivate Young People And Leaders In A Powerful Way.

Fame Isolates People From Reality. That Happens To Many Artists, And I Don't Want It To Happen To Me.

I Don't Think I Would Want My Children To Enter Into My Profession. There's A Lot Of Stress And So Much Competition. There Are Easier Things You Can Do With Your Life.

Even After I Got Some Recognition And Success, I Still Had To Work Hard And Prove Myself.
