I don't claim to be the voice of reason. I'd just like to be able to hear it above all the misinformed rhetoric being shouted from every street corner in this city. I love it here, but I didn't come home because I thought I'd be returning to a hypocrite-free zone. That, it most certainly is NOT.

I'm a little bit country, I'm a little bit R&B, I'm a little bit of everywhere I've lived, I'm a lot of Don't Mess With Me, Don't know if you'll understand, But I know it's clear to me, I'm a little bit hip-hop, But it's ALL about Liberty. (Thank you, Tracey Ullman and Donny & Marie).
