The People

11:17 AM |

dedicated to all the homies....

This is for my people who have people. The down since you were low to the ground people. The ones who had your back when you were still pushing your grandaddy's cadillac people. These are the people who accept you flaws and all. The ones who no matter how much time has passed are still there to be your rock, your shoulder, your dude. The ones who will drop everything to help you out. You know....your PEOPLES.

Now take a minute and think about how you would feel if you called up one day and that person wasn't there. If you're not truly affected by that thought then they really weren't your people to begin with. But if you are a bit shaken up....good.

I think it's easy to neglect or forget about those people who are always there. Simply because they're always there. But what you have to remember is the same support, shoulder, acceptance they've given you, they need as well. They need to know you are just as much their peoples and they are you peoples. That no matter what, you've got their back. And if they don't feel that there, and the relationship stays unbalanced for so long, don't think they won't up and leave you.

Kinda messed up right? To think that someone wouldn't be there for you because you weren't there for them. But why would they be? How long do you think someone can go on being used up before they decide they don't need that kind of friendship in their lives anymore? They won't leave with hate or anger. They may not even truly 'leave' at all. You may not even notice it's happening. They just will slowly stop being that dude you can always rely on. Slowly stop doing whatever you need when ever you need it. They'll just slowly start to phase themselves away and one day they'll be gone....

Then what.....
