I can't say I don't get nervous, but I really kind of enjoy performing now.

I'm always nervous when I perform anyway.

I'm nervous whenever I perform.

I'm always nervous before starting a record because I can never sleep. I'm like, 'I have no good ideas, everyone is gonna see through me.'

I can't say I'm not nervous at all with media and doing speeches, but I'm getting used to it and better at it, hopefully.

I can be stupid in my lyrics or say whatever I want without having to worry about anybody else's feeling or anybody being embarrassed by it or anything like that.

I'm nervous the first few songs, and then I'm like, 'I got this audience. I'm ready!'

I still get a little nervous before performing. You don't want to forget a lyric; you don't want to make a mistake. I still get butterflies. You can try to judge an audience, but you can only really judge things by the applause.

I never walk into the studio and say, I'm going to write a song called... 'X' or called 'Slow Me Down.' I write a ton of lyrics, often the title is somewhere in those 10 pages of... I call it brain vomit. It's kind of like whatever comes out of my head and I'm unabashedly just writing it down.

When you make a solo record, it's you. It's your name. It has to be the right songs for how you feel.
