The Bus

Catchin the bus i must say is very humbling. As i look around on the bus it seems its full of people who are just tryna make it and have alot to prove. Now that my car is messed up i have to catch the bus until it gets fixed. I was sooo mad at firrst cus it felt like i was goin backwards at first like i was in high school again...but it is a very good experience it also makes me even more focused because i know i do not want to be catchin no bus ever again once i make it.....

Money

Money 
Money can make u happy money can make you sad
Money can can interfere with family
money can make you mad
Money is the root of all evil it can determine 
the outcome of your life 
money can control your future
even when you kno the decession you are making 
is not right.
Money can make you go crazy 
ohhh the almighty dollar is crazy
have you feenin for more and life and getting money 
is just a chore.
Cus when we die money wont matter 
when your in heaven
The rich can be rich all they want
but when they die they cant take it with them
we came in this world with notin and we will leave with notin

Women and Hip-hop

Since the birth of Hip-Hop it was viewed as much more than just music; it was viewed as a culture that represented a large community while lacking any female presence. Women's first introduction into hip hop began by playing more of a background role such as dancing in music behind the male rappers. In the early years these dancers were fully clothed they were seen as more then just eye candy. Not only did they really dance in videos but they were not seen in bikinis looking like hookers.Now and days rappers rap about sexual things and talk about women in sexual ways and while the women are that video with two pieces of clothing shaking there behine it is giving them a bad look . Not just for them but for black women. Did u notice when a black woman is in a video she is considered a video girl or some sort but when you see a white female in a video with little clothing she is a model? why do you think this is viewed this way?

Never free

At my job there is mostly africans and somolia. I am pretty much the only African american male. I was having a conversation wit one of my co workers who is from the ivory coast. He was tellling me how he left because of how bad it was there, he told me that five years ago they still were not free and now with them on the way to having a new and better governor, things are better. He told me there was fighting and killing everyday. He said africa realisticly is the richest country thats why till this day other countries are tryin to own ceartain things and control diffrent parts of africa. This made me think how after years years and years of slavery how some parts of the world blacks are still fighting.

The tea party

Years ago the tea party was known for being racist only  representing whites mostly the rich upper class. Now they have came back with a mask telling the country the tea party is the way to go. When all reality they just are angry because of the way Obama is changeing america and making it possible for all races by spreading the wealth.

The little people..

The little people. The middle class people hard working people that get held down and kept where they are. As im at work at the airport knowing im in college and im blessed to be in school and have a chance to puursue my dream. I watch the planes roll in as the rich sit in first class they look down on us as if they are on top . Its a weird feeling i have observed.

Time

Time
Time don't wait no time don't sleep
Time can be money depending on how we think
time can be our enemy and a fear that makes us impatient 
Time is everything no time to stop gotta keep movin
lookin to the the future movin through heavy traffic no ditractions
trying to stay above water time to do more then just pass that.
