I cry very easily. It can be a movie, a phone conversation, a sunset – tears are words waiting to be written.

You start to become successful, and everybody starts to drive your money train to the bank, and they’re not thinking anymore about what you want as an artist or if any of that even matters to you. It genuinely upsets people in my life that I don’t care about money, and that’s not my problem.
