It's a word in Wolof that i learned one night while i was
smokin a buuunch of african dro with my cousin... it was
like 4 or 5 am and we were faded outta our minds talkin
about a lotttt of different shit. the meaning of this one
word really left me breathless... it means basically,
'you're gonna get yours.. and I'm not trippen because God
sees all, so pray that you pay for all your misdeeds in
this lifetime, and not the next.'
If you're deserving of reverence and
forgiveness then that will be the case. There's always a
plan and people forget that, or choose to ignore it because
of negativity stemming from whatever source individuals
choose to place the blame upon. You don't know how your
decisions now will affect your descendants later. or the
way YOU will pay for your actions after death. The
repercussions for our dumb actions always turn out the
same.
You do A, then B happens.
We all know and acknowledge that at one point in time, but
the way we act on it afterward is what is important to be
conscious of. Its so easy to be blinded. Things are simple,
but people just make shit so complicated. DO what the fuck
you know is right... if you know you're doing wrong shit,
then stop. duh. i almost wanna just pass out a flyer
reminding people of that shit.
Save yourself some stress,
"drama", heartbreak, etc.. follow your gut and actually pay
attention to signs that serve to lead you away from doin
dumb shit. Remember that the shit your friends and family
don't see are still bein seen by God. lmao allll the ppl
out there thinkin they're sneaky n shit are gonna be real
shocked in the end.. To me... i feel if your mind and
heart is in the right place, [my definition of 'the right
place' is hella thorough... but too long to type out right
now.] despite what you may be
doing, you're still in good standing. ONE instance is that
people now are so focused on getting money.
money money money money money.
when really, all that shit could mean NOTHING in a matter
of a second. then what have you worked for? Who are you,
without the chase for money instilled in you? who have you
betrayed thus far to get what you
hustled to get...? i definitely account for those who NEED
to hustle to make it. or those who have a hustle that
doesn't produce negative output... but... man...when you
put shit in perspective, some shit just doesnt seem worth
it in the end.
why pollute your life unnecessarily, and more importantly
at the expense of others?
I wonder what drives people to want to surround themselves
in dumb, unimportant shit. is it lack of information about
the state of the world? is there something that keeps them
from seeing that there are other options? do they just
believe differently than i do? I can't find the answer
out to be honest... but as i have always done and will
continue to do.. i'm going to reflect my thoughts in the
way i act, i'm not gonna be afraid to be myself no matter
what my mindset at any particular time is. no one's gonna
be Me for me. so i'm me, i have my homies, i got some herb,
i have my opinions, i have my family, and i have a tight
grasp on my beliefs... i voice em when i'm asked to. i
have an ultimate goal and i hope more people will open
their minds one day.
