The late Adam Yauch of the Beastie Boys was once challenged by an interviewer about the change in his lyrics (basically, trying to catch him out for being a hypocrite given the simple party-hard themes of early work and the more mature takes on things later, including and especially about women), and he said something to the effect of "I'd rather be a hypocrite than the same person forever." I think about that a lot.
