Being Around People Like Aretha Franklin And Gladys Knight, Dionne Warwick And Roberta Flack, All These Greats, I Was Taught To Listen And Observe.

I'm A Person Who Has Life And Wants To Live, And Always Have.

In Grammar School Some Of The Girls Had Problems With Me. My Face Was Too Light. My Hair Was Too Long. It Was The Black-consciousness Period, And I Felt Really Bad.

When You're Feeling Full Of Doubt And Fear Has Got You In A Bind, Love Will Save The Day.
