T.I. Not Worried About Potential 'Blurred Lines’ Lawsuit: 'I Don’t Steal From Anybody' (VIDEO)

T.I. isn't worried about Marvin Gaye or the "Blurred Lines" copyright case.

Earlier this month, Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams were ordered to pay Gaye's family $7.3 million after a Los Angeles jury determined that their 2013 hit single "Blurred Lines" did infringe on Gaye's 1977 song "Got to Give It Up."

But during the trial, T.I., who is featured on the song and also listed as co-writer, was cleared of infringement charges - which upset the Gaye family, pushing them to file a motion to "correct" the jury's verdict.

T.I. feels differently.

While promoting his new film "Get Hard" in Los Angeles on Saturday, the actor told "Access Hollywood's" Shaun Robinson that he isn't concerned about the motion filed against him because he has never borrowed from anyone's creativity.

"I know that I have never taken from anybody's creativity," the rapper told Robinson. "I have never walked into the studio and used anybody else's idea to contribute to mine. And I think that the universe and gods who look down on us all and have something to do with an outcome -- that will exonerate me. I ain't trippin."

The rapper expressed the same thoughts when paparazzi caught up with him at LAX airport in Los Angeles over the weekend, saying that he has "admiration and respect" for the Gaye family and estate, but insisted his lyrics included in the song were original.

"I never really got caught up in that. I have nothing but admiration and respect for the legacy and estate of Marvin Gaye and I have nothing but support and extreme admiration for my partner Pharrell as well as Rob," he told TMZ.

"I know that I'm a writer, I'm a creator, I don't steal from anybody creatively when I make my music. I know that and I think anybody with common sense is going to be able to see that whenever they listen to it."
