Harmony & Mac
On the street, you choose who you trust carefully. There’s
family of course, but the crew you run with, they are the ones who you rely on
when you’re out there. You have their back, they have yours. But even then,
there’s the one. No matter how low you get, even if everyone leaves you, if
you’re lucky, then you have that one who will never run out on you, who can
trust with your life, who helps you no matter what, and vice versa. Sometimes
it’s your best friend. Sometimes it actually is family. And sometimes, it’s
your girl.
DJ Heartbeat
To some, it’s just music. Something to dance to, to fill the
air, to play in the background while you do other stuff. But to those who truly
know, it’s the beat. It flows through you, fills you, it drives you. Every
backbeat, every record scratch, every word, every sound, it is part of you. Your
heart beats in time with the passion, your blood flows with the emotion, it
becomes more than mere rhythmic sound. Few get to this point, rarely does
someone feel it as deeply as the DJ. But deep down, you can find that driving
beat.
Get Yo Swag On
Swag. A simple word, but one that is hard to get. Some
refuse to see, refuse to listen. But Swag is not just about how you dress, how
you act, how you party. It’s not about beats or bling or anything you buy. It’s
not about something you can own, it’s about what you are. You either have it or
you don’t. If you don’t have it, you can’t buy it, you can’t learn it, but you
can get it. Coz Swag is about being true to yourself, true to your crew, and true
to those who have your back.
It’s Not Hate.
You got a choice in life. You can assume, or you can know.
You can walk around with your ears closed tight, or open. You can do your
thing, and tell the world you’re perfect and ignore the flaws, or you can be
open to the idea that maybe, just maybe, someone else might know more than you,
that someone else might have an idea to help you. You really should understand
that, that people giving you advice can be constructive, can help.
Basically what I’m saying is that I’m better than you, so
you should listen to me. Totally.
History
It sounds simple enough, and yet so many fail to grasp it.
People think that they’ll get a say, that people remember the consensus, that history
is decided by a group vote. History doesn’t remember the masses, doesn’t take a
tally of attendance. History belongs to those who stand up and make a stand, those
who fight their battles hard, and win. The record books are filled with pages
about the winners, while losers are footnotes in other people’s records.
So stand up and fight hard for what you believe in, and history
will tell your side of the story.
Art
Throughout history, art has both changed and stayed the
same. The format, the style, they change. Where once art hung only in
privileged homes and palaces, now it is on concrete and brick across the city.
Where mystical beasts once marked the unknown, now they stand for what we want
them to be, we know that they represent all that we want them to. Society
changes, and art reflects society, so it changes as well, but humanity remains
the same, and so does art. The method is the message, and the message is harmony
with all things, one and all.
