I don't care if I'm in too deep.
I need honor in my life from somebody playing for keeps.
I'm living life as best I can - but I'm not exempt from failure and making bad choices.
I think singing traditional country is wonderful, because I'm bringing it to my generation and to the younger kids.
I don't earn my money from trying to hurt people or get in the tabloids.
Im Southern, so alligator tail is pretty interesting and yummy.
I'm not gonna apologize for who I am and what I've gone through.
As a singer and songwriter, I have great admiration for many of the budding stars who come to try their hand at performing and can relate to the hopes and aspirations of all the contestants, no matter how good or bad.
Commitment. Someone who'll go the distance. I need somebody with staying power who'll make me go weak in the knees. Commitment. And everything that goes with it. I need honor and love in my life from somebody who's playing for keeps.
I needed to become something besides the star everybody had built me up to be.
I never really had any friends my age. I've grown up in the adult world all my life.
I need honor and love in my life from somebody who's playin' for keeps. What I'm searching for is a man who'll stand by me: who will walk through the fire and be my flame in the night. I won't settle for less than what I deserve: a friend and a lover who'll love me for the rest of my life.
I need somebody with staying power who will make me go weak in the knees.
I went through that stage every teenager goes through: Who am I? What am I? Where do I fit in? In my case I had to deal with newspapers saying I looked fat or tired or my hair was a mess. People always criticize: they either love you, or they don't. But you have to block that out and concentrate on the work. And I feel I am doing good work, and I'm finally getting to see who I really am.
I know you can't go back, so I try to do all the things other teenagers do.
What I enjoy most about going out on stage is seeing all my fans react to my music.
I never, ever in my heart want to hurt anyone.
Keep your sense of self; don't get caught up in what people want you to be.
