Everybody has a choice. I am not here to shove my light down everybody's throat. For those who don't want it, I have nothing to defend.

From the time that you are a child, you grow up repressing yourself.

I consider myself a crayon... I may not be your favorite color but one day you'll need me to complete your picture.
Lauryn Hill
Image
I started to see that my concept of spirituality was totally wrong.

Never underestimate those who you scar.
Lauryn Hill
Image
I wrote these words for everyone who struggles in their youth. Who won't accept deception instead of what is truth. It seems we lose the game, before we even start to play. Who made these rules? We're so confused. Easily led astray.

We have these images, these icons before us that are not reality.

Never be afraid of not knowing. Find out.

I don't need anybody to market or promote me. If people don't want to hear this music, then it's not for them. You cannot please everybody.

Over-commercialization and its resulting restrictions and limitations can be very damaging and distorting to the inherent nature of the individual. I did not deliberately abandon my fans, nor did I deliberately abandon any responsibilities.
Lauryn Hill
Image
The sweetest thing I've ever known was like the kiss on the collarbone.
Lauryn Hill
Image
I get out, I get out of all your boxes. I get out, you can't hold me in these chains. I'll get out. Father free me from this bondage. Knowin' my condition is the reason I must change
Lauryn Hill

For the past several years, I have remained what others would consider underground. I did this in order to build a community of people, like-minded in their desire for freedom and the right to pursue their goals and lives without being manipulated and controlled by a media protected military industrial complex with a completely different agenda.

Every time that God navigates my ship, there's nothing cerebral going on. There's very little thought. It's almost as if I have the directions. Every time I try to do it myself, I'm conjuring up my own concoction and trying.

I rarely listen to the music for the sheer pleasure. I'm listening for the tool, I'm listening for the instrument, I'm listening for the art.

I hope that by people seeing the result of freedom that they'll want some, too.
