I've Learned To Trust Myself,

If You Only Try To Please Others, You're Going To Resent Those People You're Trying To Please; The Ones Who Are Often Closest To You. If You Choose A Path That You Yourself Want To Take, Then You're Going To Be Much Kinder To The People In Your Life.

And It's Hard At The End Of The Day

If I Cried Me A River Of All My Confessions, Would I Drown In My Shallow Regret?

I Was Raised With A Mother Who Told Me That I Wouldn't Succeed, That I Wasn't Good Enough. Even At The Pinnacle Of My Success, She'd Come To A Show, And There'd Be, Like, 10,000 People Screaming. And She'd Say, "i Just Don't Get It." I Think She Had So Little Faith In Herself And Her Abilities As A Parent That She Couldn't Imagine Any Offspring Of Hers Could Do So Well. And All That Did Was Drive Me To Push Back. If Someone Says, "you Can't Do This," I'm Like, "f-ck You! Oh, Yes I Can, And I Will."

Happiness Is Like A Cloud, If You Stare At It Long Enough, It Evaporates.
