Okay! So this is my very first blog ever. I wrote this when I was going through something my freshman year in high school. Dont judge it because its very immature.
"You see, it seems that people only like u for what you do, who u have done, and what you promise to them. if i was to say that i liked rap music and that i own alot of it, then i would probably be the head of a click or some stupid tish like that. alot of black gangstas and wanna bees would ve on my ass all the time- but im not...
if i was to say that i am a rock and roller and i like to go out and get laid and smoke weed, and drink, then i would probably be really popular in a group of just that. but im not!!!!!!!
if i was to say that i play basketball, and i play football, and that i would beat any dudes as* round here that says anything to me, i would probably have a child, runnin round here some where lol... BUT IM NOT, AND I DONT!!!!!!
now it may seem as if i am tryna down all those people that do what they do, so far as the sports go and everything, im not!! im makin my point!!
which is that every body is a follower!!! a follower of thier dream!! they have that right... so why cant i have mine?
why cant i dance?? why cant i sing?? why cant i live every day knowing that i too have a dream? a dream with support.... a dream in light, instead of dark.... a dream that is noticed for being success and nothing that is apart???
yes i am a male!! and that makes it even harder to love this talent of mine...
dont take this message the wrong way by thinking that we male performers are tryna make you want you to be at every performance..... and that we want to make you believe in our dreams with us, because if you dont wanna be there we most def want you to leave lol... if you do, great!!
but the minute that you come and throw it in our faces that we are never man enough, that we never have a chance of being a good father to our children never mind, i wont make any threats on my space lol ( wheeeew)....... ( enough said)"
thanks for reading my blog, I hoped you enjoyed my first spoken speach

You touch on some pretty significant issues here, Darrius. How would this be different if you were authoring it today?
ReplyDeleteDarrius, I like your speech! LoL you did a good job.
ReplyDeleteissues is definately the correct term to use. i waas very young, and pissed off when i wrote this, but if i was authoring today i wouldnt have used vulger language to show how mad i was. In fact i wouldnt write about this at all today, because now as a man, i couldnt care less of how people felt about me when it comes down to what i do as a hobby. back then, i was angry and more concerned because in high school i wanted to be excepted. i was haing issues on who i was, and why i wasnt being recognized for who i was, but every other guy was just because they played sports.
