He has remarked on being able to do certain things effortlessly, such as avoid falling weak to simple temptation, but then being incapable of doing other things such as be the best person he can be, to put it broadly.He asks himself, ‘Why can’t I be the person I want to be?’ Tyler presents himself as two different people who are as different as night and day. In a way, they actually are night and day. Read more on Last.fm.
