We complain about who our presidents are who our judges are who our cops are who our teachers are lawyers etc. then why not push our own to become that ? Why when one of our own chooses that path they receive less support from our own communities? Why when we speak with a level of intellect we are considered white ? Or an Uncle Tom ? Why are we so in denial about truth ? It seem like the more ignorant you keep yourself the more you're accepted in our community . Why is it that we embrace gangs , negative activity , drugs , fights , harming each other ? The fight that we are afraid to fight is the fight called survival, survival doesn't mean to physical hurt someone in an act of war .. life and principles and rules and restrictions equal war . That's the game of survival . Let's better ourself , work , go to school , raise the youth and the lost , become politicians , professors , educators etc. playing a sports is cool rapping is cool but why aren't we embracing education or knowledge as a whole ? Understand creativity man .. I'm just so **** disgusted right now that we rather sit and make excuses with that time and energy let's help .. I don't have beef or issues with anyone . I don't respect anyone who push negativity on the youth for their acceptance...
