1.
Man gave us laws, and God gave us time,
It's the art of storytelling and I'm only telling mine.
ASAP Rocky
Humankind has provided us with regulations, and the Creator has granted us moments,
It's a form of narration and I'm just recounting my own.
2.
I dress how I feel. I just go off emotion. I can't prepare my outfit a day before. Everything I wear is spontaneous.
ASAP Rocky
I clothe myself based on my mood. I simply follow my intuition. I'm unable to plan ahead what I'll wear. Every ensemble is impromptu.
3.
We could fight the fuss till we get like friends,
Or somebody bite the dust and we split like ends.
Even in our wildest moments, girl, I'm on it cause you're worth it.
Practice makes perfect, so we fightin' for a purpose.
ASAP Rocky
4.
The worst thing a good girl could do to you is break your heart.
ASAP Rocky
Damage your spirit.
5.
God is letting me shine, because I've got a good heart.
ASAP Rocky
God is enabling me to radiate, due to my kind nature.
6.
I thought highly of myself growing up. I still do. There's not really much somebody can say to me to bring down my confidence or anything.
ASAP Rocky
I held a high opinion of myself as a child and still do today. No one can make me feel insecure or inferior with their words.
7.
Everybody should be able to enjoy their life, because you only live once. So I just want to get it all out there and be the best role model that I can be, if people want to put me in that kind of predicament. I mean, I didn't ask to be a role model, because I'm not perfect.
ASAP Rocky
8.
Nowadays, everybody wanna be weird. We know how to manifest being weird.
ASAP Rocky
Currently, individuals strive to be eccentric. We know how to bring about being unusual.
9.
Fashion is almost like a religion, for me at least.
ASAP Rocky
Style is a kind of spiritual devotion for me.
10.
I'm a people's person, believe it or not. I just have a dark side to me, which we all do.
ASAP Rocky
I'm an extrovert, believe it or not. I simply possess a hidden facet of my personality, which is common to us all.
11.
I want to make my own path and leave behind a good legacy for myself and honestly, I just want to be innovative and always down for other people. That's what I want to be remembered by. I want to inspire.
ASAP Rocky
12.
I want to inspire people to really open up their minds and not be one-sided or biased or hypocritical.
ASAP Rocky
I wish to motivate people to think objectively and not be partial or prejudiced or double-dealing.
13.
I don't care what straight people do, I don't care what gay people do. I don't care what nobody do. That's they business. I just care about what I do. You know what I'm saying?
ASAP Rocky
'It makes no difference to me what other people are up to; I'm only concerned with my own actions.'
14.
I've got so much in my brain and I want to change the way we think sometimes.
ASAP Rocky
I have a plethora of ideas in my head and I aspire to challenge traditional thought patterns.
15.
You ready? I have gold teeth, I have braids, I'm wearing Rick Owens moon boots, I have rips in my denim, a biker vest, I love artsy girls, my favourite artists are Jimi Hendrix and John Lennon. I'm obsessed with being different.
ASAP Rocky
16.
I didn't want to be a loser, but I didn't want to fit in at the same time because I don't like just being ordinary. So it's one of those situations where I always kept my head up.
ASAP Rocky
I refused to succumb to mediocrity, yet I did not wish to blend in either as I loathed being just another face in the crowd. Thus, I always kept a stiff upper lip.
17.
If a chick wants to know who makes my shoes, she's got to take them off my feet and look inside.
ASAP Rocky
If a woman wishes to ascertain who crafted my footwear, she must remove them from my feet and inspect the interior.
18.
There's just so much out there and so much inspiration... I just want to be tasteful.
ASAP Rocky
There's an abundance of ideas and stimulation... I just wish to be judicious.
19.
I want to be the first guy to help people accept everybody for who they are. I'm talking about colors, religions, sex, everybody. My music is for everybody, it's not just for one kind of group.
ASAP Rocky
I wish to be the pioneer in promoting acceptance of all individuals regardless of their characteristics such as race, faith, and gender. My music is meant for everyone, not just a certain demographic.
20.
Rihanna is a pothead and so am I, so we're real cool. Weed is going to bring us together as a generation. Drugs is what created Woodstock. Let's be clear about that.
ASAP Rocky
'Rihanna and I are both cannabis users, so we have a common bond. Marijuana is going to bring our generation closer together. It was the driving force behind the Woodstock festival - let's not forget that.'
21.
Purple lipstick? Naw, that looks stupid on all girls!
ASAP Rocky
22.
I strive for perfection, but Im not perfect. But what I can say is my morals are totally different than any other 24-year-old rapper my age now. I look at life totally different. A whole other aspect. I have different views and morals on life in general. And opinions.
ASAP Rocky
23.
Young boy, let his gun bang, let his nuts hang
Transition to a Lamborghini from a Mustang
Drugs slang in the drug game with the hustling
(I know one thing) Anything is better than that 1 train
ASAP Rocky
24.
I'm not glorifying it at all, I'm just basically telling you that sometimes I have suicidal thoughts. And maybe I should seek help, or maybe it's not that deep.
ASAP Rocky
25.
When Big Meech and everybody got indicted, hustling died. Keep it trill.
ASAP Rocky
26.
I used to be homophobic, but as I got older, I realized that wasn't the way to do things. I don't discriminate against anybody for their sexual preference, for their skin color... that's immature.
ASAP Rocky
27.
All of the young people - the artsy people, people who get overlooked because they're weird or they don't have hype around them - need to get some shine.
ASAP Rocky
28.
I'm starting to find out that a lot of people that you wouldn't think listen to me really do.
ASAP Rocky
29.
I know that women are smarter than men. I don't wanna sound like I'm on a bandwagon for chicks but I do love 'em, can't front. Women are smarter than men. I know I gotta lot of chicks up my sleeve but you guys are twice as good.
ASAP Rocky
30.
I like women. I love women.
ASAP Rocky
31.
So for me, fashion was about standing out as an individual - and it helped me get the attention that most people try to get with publicity stunts or by doing other crazy things. But I just let the attention come to me naturally, and I think some of that has to do with my fashion.
ASAP Rocky
32.
I'm not a gangster, bro.
ASAP Rocky
33.
With clothes, I like mixing what different designers do until it becomes a personal expression of how I'm feeling that day.
ASAP Rocky
34.
I don't want people to get the impression that I just got money and now I'm cocky, because I'm not. I'm just a little overly confident.
ASAP Rocky
35.
Why can't I be friends with somebody who's gay? Why not? You can miss out on a lot by being so small-minded and stereotypical about people. It's stupid.
ASAP Rocky
36.
Design my own line? No, I just like the culture.
ASAP Rocky
37.
It would be disrespectful to take my stardom and bully my way into the fashion industry.
ASAP Rocky
38.
I would not consider myself to be a quote unquote real New York rapper. I don't even like New York rappers.
ASAP Rocky
39.
I was thinking about naming my child Kanye.
ASAP Rocky
40.
I don't cook, 'cause I don't know how to cook.
ASAP Rocky
41.
I'm from New York and I love New York and I'm always repping New York, but what I represent is something deeper than just being a New York rapper.
ASAP Rocky
42.
I treat everybody equal, and so I want to be sure that my listeners and my followers do the same if they're gonna represent me. And if I'm gonna represent them, then I also want to do it in a good way.
ASAP Rocky
43.
I really want to do the unexpected, and I think that's what I did when I executed 'Long.Live.A$AP.' I wanted people to really see the message and that I'm an artist who not only has the capability of rapping, but of composing great music both for people of my generation and for people with different backgrounds.
ASAP Rocky
44.
A lot of energy and excitement - that's what a lot of my shows are, energy and excitement.
ASAP Rocky
45.
I take cabs if I need to get somewhere or I take car service. I don't drive, I wouldn't mind riding a bike... People think that because you become an entertainer you gotta have this rock star thug image. I'm an artist, man. I'm going to live like an artist.
ASAP Rocky
46.
In Harlem, I got all my black friends. But when I go downtown, I got black, white, Asian, Indian friends. There's no borders, no barriers.
ASAP Rocky
47.
Who people like is their own business. It don't concern me. I know what I do - and I'm having a lot of fun with the women that I'm with.
ASAP Rocky
48.
Cristal go by the cases, wait hold up that was racist
I would prefer the Aces, ain't no different when you taste it.
A 40 ounce to chase it, that's just an understatement.
ASAP Rocky
49.
I'm getting my respect as a video director. The fashion industry respects me and knows who I am.
ASAP Rocky
50.
For me, growing up in Harlem and then migrating down to SoHo and the Lower East Side and chillin' down there and making that my stomping ground... That was a big thing, because I'm from Harlem, and downtown is more artsy and also more open-minded. So I got the best of both worlds.
ASAP Rocky
