I write hate lyrics really well. It's not every day you can use them, really.

I hated my childhood. It was loathsome. My parents were deaf and dumb. Profoundly so. They could make noises when they were emotionally aroused, but they couldn't form it into speech.

I saw I could rhyme words. It came simply to me. But I wrote some pretty horrible songs that I still have on tape.

I sucked in school.

I always hated school.

I got the writing bug in the fourth grade when a poem of mine was published in the school newspaper. Music criticism came a little later, when I was in high school.

I hated, when I was a kid, being told that 'Black people don't do that.' And the white kids at school didn't accept me because I was black, and the black kids in my neighborhood didn't accept me because they thought I thought I was white.

I was a horrible student. I really hated school.

I hated school.

I was a smart kid, but I hated school.
