Why give up before we try Feel the lows before the highs Clip our wings before we fly away I can't say I came prepared I'm suspended in the air Won't you come be in the sky with me

More quotes by Alicia Keys
I realize that I want something more. Success is great, but then you also wake up in your hotel room at four in the morning and you're like, wouldn't it be nice to have someone here with me.
Alicia Keys
I feel the presence of a higher power. I believe that what you give is what you get. It's universal law. I believe in the power of prayer and of words. I've learned that when you predict that negative things will happen, they do.
Alicia Keys
For me, doing a show, the excitement of singing live, and the possibility that you're not gonna be perfect - that's the thrill of it.
Alicia Keys
I believe in the limitlessness of humans. We're capable of incredible things. At times, that realization is frightening.
Alicia Keys
Still when I'm a mess I still put on a vest With an 'S' on my chest Oh yes, I'm a Superwoman
Alicia Keys
With each new day, I'm learning how to take control in order to have balance in my life. I plan time for myself and my loved ones and take it.
Alicia Keys
My mother is an actress, and she used to drag me from theater to theater and reading to reading.
Alicia Keys
I am able to hang with the hardest, the baddest, the worst, and I'm able to hang with the most proper and be at ease. I'm able to hang with any skin colour, any belief. I just fit in everywhere.
Alicia Keys
If your family - just because they're blood doesn't mean that they necessarily give you the best advice.
Alicia Keys
You can be very fulfilled as a mother, but that can't be the only way you are fulfilled. What about being a woman? What about being yourself? Your awareness of what's happening in the world? It lives altogether in a way that makes a whole. I guess I'd say I'm the wholest I've ever been.
Alicia Keys
When I was a kid I'd practise Chopin on piano - and I love Chopin! He's my dawg! Then I'd go out on the stoop and blast the radio. I'm from New York, the concrete jungle. Hip-hop influenced me from day one.
Alicia Keys
You are what you listen to
Alicia Keys
I've stepped more into my business and really... taken control for how I want that to be.
Alicia Keys
When I was younger, studying classical music, I really had to put in the time. Three hours a day is not even nice - you have to put in six.
Alicia Keys
I definitely want to act, but I also want to score movies, and I have this idea to fuse classical music with other styles that would give it a different perception.
Alicia Keys
There are certain things we come into this world having to defeat. And for me, and I would not be surprised if a lot of women feel this same way, it's this thing of not being 100 percent comfortable with myself.
Alicia Keys
I was just talking to Bono the other day, and he was like, Are you doing shows? I've just been off the road for a month-and-a-half, and he was like, You lucky girl.
Alicia Keys
You can't really compare people. That's one of the biggest lessons I've learned, because comparing yourself to someone else really stops you from being who you are.
Alicia Keys
My music comes from many, many, many places. My emotions, my feelings, my thoughts, and conversations I have with people I know who influence me.
Alicia Keys
I was always amazed the way people would come in looking one way and transform completely to the point where I couldn't recognize their language, their accent, the way they looked, their hair, their face even changed becoming so inside of the character.
