Beyond

When you're in a band with three writers, three great writers, you only get one third of the writer thing. So that's the whole reason that I did a solo career.

I grew up in a Texas where people would say, 'I didn't leave the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party left me.' Now, the reverse is happening.
