Colour Is Not The Issue In America;

I Find It Not Just Strange But Almost Ridiculous That People Could Take A Song Like The One I Was Doing And Interpret It Is Corroding Anything. Folks Have The Feeling That Oftentimes If You Don't Talk About Something It Will Go Away.

Womenfolk Raised Me And I Was Full-grown Before I Knew I Came From A Broken Home

The First Revolution Is When You Change Your Mind

I Am A Black Man Dedicated To Expression; Expression Of The Joy And Pride Of Blackness. I Consider Myself Neither Poet, Composer, Or Musician. These Are Merely Tools Used By Sensitive Men To Carve Out A Piece Of Beauty Or Truth That They Hope May Lead To Peace And Salvation.

I Work Hard At It [delivery Of Lyrics], Just Like I Worked Hard At Getting My Masters Degree. It's Not Just Something I Sit Down And Do. You Have To Learn And Keep Learning.
