I’ve been such an outsider my whole life

The problem with working under an outside label is that your music never seems to reach the right people.

I didn’t necessarily grow up in a trailer park, but there is a brief part of that in my life. So I can make fun of it a little bit. I’m not too much of an outsider, where I’m just making fun of someone.

I think the thing is that you’re very affected by your early life, and I think that if you ever had that feeling of outsider, or loneliness or whatever, it just doesn’t leave you. You can be happy and successful, whatever, but I think that thing stays inside of you. It doesn’t ever really leave you. You kind of always will have that.

I know always that I am an outsider; a stranger in this century and among those who are still men.

I must try and break through the clinches about Latin America. Superpowers and other outsiders have fought over us for centuries in ways that have nothing to do with our problems. In reality, we are all alone.

I’ve always been an outsider to some extent.
