When you're offstage, that's the footprint. That's the man God's gonna judge.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
But I also know in standup, there's nowhere to hide. You get on stage and you deliver, or you are eviscerated and you are thrown into a pile of bodies at the bottom of a mountain.
While it is well enough to leave footprints on the sands of time, it is even more important to make sure they point in a commendable direction.
It's up to God to do the judging. You haven't walked in my boots, so how are you going to judge me?
The whole deal is when you walk onstage, you're up there bigger than life. People idolize you.
You can always land on your feet if you know where the ground is.
You know, I think whatever a comic talks about onstage is all they talk about offstage.
For me, I always think of the image of sweeping out my footprints as I walk through a scene.
When I leave a room, it's gonna be footprints of funk wherever I stepped, because I'm a soul-funk crusader.
I'd worship the ground you walked on if only you walked in a better neighborhood.
The place where you made your stand never mattered. Only that you were there... and still on your feet.
