Im 18 in this album. Im not losing fans, and Im not disrepecting women, but you reach the maturity of taking it to the next level with a girl. It was only necessary for me to have at least one song like that. – Chris Brown

With fame, you cant trust everybody. You cant depend on them being there for you as a person. They will only be there because of what youve got you as a person. They will only be there because of what youve got and what you can bring to their life. Its not a relationship-its a leech. – Chris Brown
