If I'm in project mode, I might as well clarify some things that are out there that I really need to get off my chest and it starts with this.

I respect you, I respect you, I respect you.

So many of you, so many of you have different opinions than I do, disagree with me.

Comment, leave your three cents, talk behind my back and I want you to know so there is never any confusion

that I respect where you're coming from, you come from a different place, with different circumstances, different narratives and I will respect it to the end.

I really will, as long as your points of view are coming from a place of positivity, added value, debate, intellectual curiosity,

I will respect you to no end and even for the people that are adding their two cents to the conversation of my life.

Maybe I'll save my framework of not leaving two cents in your life, but if I don't, there you go.

Even for the people that have taken the time to add the two cents on my life out of a place of weakness and despair, I need to get a short dose of happiness

in the spitting of their negativity, a my framework disguised as constructive criticism, or lack of cool age drinking, I respect it, I understand it.

And I deploy unbelieveable amounts of gratitude for my parents and my neighborhoods and my homies and my early grit and grind and create the foundation of my life.

I respect it, I respect it, I respect it, spit your truths.

Thank you.
