I can't even see me wasting my time or my talent to disrespect another black man.
I'm living everyday like a hustle. Another drug to juggle. Another day, another struggle.

There are times in life when, instead of complaining, you do something about your complaints.
Carpe diem! Rejoice while you are alive; enjoy the day; live life to the fullest; make the most of what you have. It is later than you think.

I release any feelings of competition or comparison. I simply do my best and enjoy being me.
