Alright generational curses
In a thousand years
Nothing that any of us does is going to matter
So in that light, it's like
You have one life
Live it how you want to live it
Define your own success
Define your own happiness
Because if you're not happy inside
Nothing outside of your body is going to make you happy
Because you're always going to want more
But then also that gives somebody else
The ability to take your happiness from you
If that car makes you happy
And I take that shit no more happiness for you, right?
When you get that time
When you get that money to do whatever you want
F–k anybody's definition of what you should be doing
It's on you
What are you guys' thoughts on any of that?

I used to believe in like the generational curses and shit
But as of recent
I think I changed my mind on that shit

How so?
Well, bro, if there's a problem and I can identify it
Then I should stop bitchin and blaming other people
And fuckin fix it
Like my parents, they got to a certain point
It's up to me to push it further
So why am I complaining instead of working?
Shit you can't help is like what race you are
And what advantages you were given as a kid or not
I used to work with this dude, this Mexican dude
He always used to say that shit
You grew up poor, right?
But now you can go do what the fuck you want to do

That's his thought process, not saying to me specifically
But it's like, bro, so if you're
Dude, if you grew up poor and you're poor at 25
That's fuckin you, bro
I'm not hearing that shit
Get up off your ass and go work
To that extent, I fuck with that

I feel that

How many people say they want to do something
And then they come
And then they're not really doing the fuckin work?
Or you allow yourself to fuckin cut corners
And do shit that you shouldn't be doing
And that's a personal problem
You know what I mean?
It's like, bro, my shit fucked up over here
Not because I'm Black, not because of anything
But literally because I'm not paying attention to it
And then it's like, okay, I see this person spends their money there
This person spends their money there or this, that, and the third
But what's that value for me?
Cars and clothes and shoes
I know that kind of shit has no value for me
But I know I need money as a resource
To be able to do whatever I want to do every single day
And that's pretty much be left the fuck alone
Work on music, and put out that kind of shit to the world
But that's bigger than any of us
Facts

It's about connecting with other people
But how the fuck am I connecting to you
If I don't even know how to connect to myself?
