I'm Kind Of A Recluse

I Go Through Phases Of Stuff.

My Second Mother Is My Maternal Grandmother. Her Name Is Thelma. She Also Gave Me A Very Powerful Medicine; She Made Sure That I Knew My Role As A Young Lady And As Someone With Moral Structures And Principles. She Taught Me That If I Was Going To Be Involved With Anything, Whether It Be Spirituality, Music, Or Some Skill, That I Have To Practice.

I'm Free. I Just Do What I Want, Say What I Want, Say How I Feel, And I Don't Try To Hurt Nobody. I Just Try To Make Sure That I Don't Compromise My Art In Any Kind Of Way, And I Think People Respect That.

So The Most Natural Thing To Me Is To Stay As Pure To Or Real To Or Close To Who I Am As Possible.

We As Black People Have To Tell Our Own Stories. We Have To Document Our History. When We Allow Someone Else To Document Our History The History Becomes Twisted And We Get Written Out. We Get Our Noses Blown Off.
