As one grows, one learns new things and one's views on life change.

To me, freedom is to be able to think differently.

Because freedom is a gift to others.

I believe in people who are fighting for freedom, and I try to give them some hope with my music. It’s my responsibility and my role.

I have a lot of respect for people who are generous, who don’t care about their life, who are gentle, who think about others, who give their life for us.
