Its crazy how nowadays people don't see each other nor do they talk to each other until some shit go down.

A lot of funerals but not enough graduations or family reunions.

A lot a baby showers but not enough weddings. Crazy right? But its how we livin,

nowadays.

But who tryna change it? We call out for change but ain't doin anything to make it happen.

We still doin the same things that we were doing last week. Last month. Last year. Last generation.

If you ask me, people ain't shit. Including you..

Including me? I may sit here on the internet tryna prep talk for a difference in the world but what will that do?

How come I can't start the change?

If not now, then when? If not me, then who?

The answer? ....... is never and nobody.

It takes EVERYBODY to make a difference. Not just a single person.

But until we realize that as one, the answer remains, the same.
