Diamonds aren't always forever.

"Life movin' too fast I need to slow down" - Kanye West

Sometimes I feel maybe I'm moving too fast in this paper chase. And at other times I'm like what the hell am I thinking...I gotta get the money regardless. Introducing my homegirl(Lissa, see I said it) to Wu-tang earlier this week reminded me of one of the streets many sayings...Cash Rulez Everything Around Me, CREAM nigga. Theres two things wrong with that saying though. First off, I'm not in the streets enough to have to shout that. Second off, money is one of the only things a young black male thinks about when he comes from almost nothing...he thinks about it so much that he might dive into a life in the streets to get it. I'm one of those young black males. I need to slow down.

Chasing money, cream, bread, paper, or/and all of the above isn't the only thing that might cause a young nigga to move alittle too quick though. Love can take you on a rollercoaster thats ten times faster than any of these weed smoking niggas dipping from the local beat-a-nigga's-ass-for-no reason...in other words police officer. Moving too fast in this area can send a brother to heartbreak hotel(Common, get educated). Young niggas caught up in love, slow down.

I enjoy life alot nowadays, besides from the beef, stress, and bullshit that I go through. Life is like a diamond...that doesn't last forever. I don't want to run through it too quick and overlook some things, and I also don't want to go through it so slow that I watch everyone I care about fade away. I know my life...diamond...whatever you want to call it won't last forever, but while its still intact I want to live it out just right. If you feel the same way, lets both slow down.

"Girl ain't give me no ass, ya' need to go down" - Ye'
I just had to add that lol.
