The Problem Is...

The problem is, we lack UNITY...we no longer have a sense of community, no desire to lend a helping hand. Hell, we hardly have the desire to help OURSELVES, let alone ANOTHER man.

There is strength in numbers, but instead we decide to constantly divide, and give one another hell, snitch, and throw one another in jail over petty shit. Over insignificant things, we bitch... we worry about the superficial, the materialistic... that Willie Lynch shit that keeps us separated.

The problem is, we stopped teaching our kids, hell, our children don't even know what their history IS.  They've never heard about the kings, queens, their contribution to the Universe...our young men think they have to be thugs and our young women do not even know their worth.

We have to take a stand, be devoted, love our women and combat the system. Teach our kids who they are, spread knowledge near and far. Let them know of their potential while they are young and we are most influential. Give them your support, build rapport and lead by example. They best way to get them to appreciate the benefits of hard work is to show them a sample.

The problem is, we began to settle.  We stopped aiming for the top and found comfort in the middle.  We took the inch, but didn't go for the mile, even though it took our ancestors' blood, sweat, and tears to gain equal rights, to reconcile.

The problem is, people are convinced that they cannot progress, or have success, and to me, that just makes no sense.  That's the lie they want you to believe, the lie that things will always be hard and that we will not succeed.  Anytime you want something better in life, you are going to have to work hard and sacrifice.

The problem is, we lost that traditional sense of family, that feeling of "I will do anything for you and I know that you will do the same for me...for eternit because unconditional love has become a dud.  We spend time with each other only on the holidays, and even then, we don't know what in the hell we celebrate.

Yes people, it is time for us to come together, learn from all of the stormy times and concentrate on the beautiful weather.  Its time for us to wake up, get right...  start at step one and get things done...in no time, we will be able to basque in what we have become: Solutions to these problems.
