I come from making money in the streets. The streets all I know. All my family is still in the streets. So, it's going to be hard to pull me right back into that.

I got to get more serious about the music so he don't get dragged into that life. ~ Shy Glizzy

The great danger in today's world, pervaded as it is by consumerism, is the desolation and anguish born of a complacent yet covetous heart, the feverish pursuit of frivolous pleasures, and a blunted conscience.
