Not Going Down With You

People really piss me off.

Don't blame me for the problems in your world. 

I tire of the drama.

I tire of the conflict.

I tire of the emotional turmoil.

Just because you haven't found yourself worthy, doesn't make it my fault.

No one ever said the truth would be good.

In fact the truth hurts. 

Lying would make the truth hurt even more. 

Handle the road blocks that the man-upstairs has placed in front of you.

I know you can.

I believe you can.

I have faith you can.

Problems in the future will be a mountain compared to everyday molehills. 

Overcoming these problems make you stronger emotionally and mentally.

That does not kill you, can only make you stronger.

Never give up in the face of danger.

The easiest philosophy ever created is "just live your life. live it for the better, not for the worst."

And I only judge by a man's characters, not the color of his skin. 

I don't judge too quickly, because I don't know everything about a man's character.

If I don't tell you the truth, then that's a lie. 

So you think I'm going to lie to hold onto whatever you poorly offer?

Like....

Your respect?

Your friendship?

Your so called kindness?

I don't care what you tell other people about me. 

That's their fault if they choose to believe someone that doesn't have all their facts straight.

If you don't like the truth then don't seek it. 

Respect me for me and I'll respect you for you.
