Founding Fathers are NOT my Fathers
Fathers love their sons, and love we had none.
We didn't feel the love when you counted us as 3/5th's
...as if we're broken.
If we are BROKEN, its because YOU broke us.
You broke us and strategically pieced us together.
Pieced us together with half truths and propaganda.
...all held together by Uncle Tom's famous glue, sticky..
Gave us leftovers, we made it cuisine.
Created a culture that wasn't OURS, from a leftover meal of hatred.
After you had your way, you kicked us to the curb...
..now you wonder why we hold tight to the ghetto.
It's that only thing that was ours.
Make us jump through hoops for pension plans...
..now wonder why we're so athletic.
Wandering Minstrels searching for an ear.
My Founding Father was no Father, now ask me why we're excited for the First Black Family...

Music Life
If you can listen to any song at any time, I feel like you arent listening to the words, I find myself saying "ehh thats not the vibe right now" so much....I just think music should match my mood, from hip hop while doing homework, to reggae, to rock, to R&B or oldies soul on a sunny day...
I mean whatever your mood is, find that soundtrack....I find that its the meaningless, emotionless, "throw-away" rap that is killing the game...shit that has no meaning and no purpose other than a dope beat...and thats unacceptable

Lose Lose
There are just some people in the world you just cant win with....and thats life
...the people who may even do nice shit for you, but when they get a chance, they are the first to metaphorically kick you in the face...
....that aint life
people who claim and hold fast to shit that they ARE SUPPOSED TO DO...like seriously, you mad you have responsibilities? really?
or people who let outside variables dictate their interaction with you?....so the world shitted on YOU, so you mad at me?...riiiiiight
..and through all of this, im supposed rock with you!?
shit aint nothin logical about that.....and though i win for callin you out on ALL OF THIS....I now lose because you still dont recognize your fault

Example
*cues Curren$y- Example*
I am an Example, of intelligent surroundings
I am an Example, of what happens when a child is motivated and held to high expectations
....Most importantly I am an example of an African American(Bi racial if you wanna be technical)male, who has attained a bachelors degree, in 4 years.
I was rudely awakened by the gravity of my achievement....as small as it is to me, I failed to realized that many people look up to me while others take pride in who I have become. I believe that everyone who has a circle of people of whom they have repeated interaction with will have SOMEONE look up to them, or take pride in who they are...whether family or friends or just the lil homie from the ball court or whatever.
I only right this as a mental note to myself, to be aware that I am an Example, and should lead as such.....

...Im just not one for the spotlight. Its the eve of my graduation and I really dont care. My homie graduates...umm NOW actually(limited tickets) and im BEYOND HYPED for her...but me...not so much....i dunno
I threw together this lil dinner that im currently getting dressed for and even this was more than I wanted. My Fam is currently en route, thats cool, but ehhh i dunno...maybe it just hasnt hit me yet...
....or maybe the uncertainty of the next few months is overshadowing this moment in life...
either way...im content, I hate when people say "arent you happy?...you made it!!"
...i mean yea....but there was never a time where that was up for debate...sure i messed up a few times, but doesnt everyone.
(edit)
12:34am
Lowkey I feel like today is just missing the special someone... Looking back on the females that have been in my life. My ex is supposed to be here.... As lame as it sounds... I still love her... Despite how things ended
...on a brighter note... My parents actually met my friends at dinner and we had a great time.... It's officially Saturday I graduate in 10 hours!!!

Realization #42611
Today I realized that girls actually really like me....i just dont give them the time of day. I realized that as a guy im SUPPOSE to be the one who "chases" but im to chill. Theres one girl who im interested in and she KNOWS...the rest just get conversation here and there.
My boy called me "mr. friendzone" but in all honesty i never pursue anything so thats not a diss, those girls are my homies... for some reason my life isnt powered by sex *shrug* ,,,i mean dont get me wrong...i love a GREAT female body, but i need that connection first...i cant even lie.
Cuz honestly whats the point of sexin dimes that dont last...thats like buying your GRAIL status sneakers and wearin em one and those shits just crumble to pieces. Fuck these glass slipper ass hoes, only good for the night. I need the day time ladies...if you can last through out the day, then trust me youll be around for the night with me....
