If you see it, black and white people, both sides look to see the differences, they don't look at what they have together. Men and women, and old and young, and so on.

That’s the place where life happens.

I'm not so in with the prescriptive avant-garde agenda. I can do that sort of thing, but I feel that I'm still interested enough in song structure. When I look at a lyric on the page, the lyric is alive to me, looking like soldiers in a field. I can move it around, and it's very black-and-white.
