But I haven't really, I haven't seen anything really with the youth.
And for me, I want to bring awareness to violence of all kinds.
Black on black crime, police brutality, all of that, because it is for my generation, we're next up.
Next is going to be our world.
So we, I want to make sure that we, we're able to take a stand and shed light on what's going on for us.
Because, as I said, this next, is going to be us running the world.
And we got to make sure that it's right for the people after us and the generations to come.
I'm a lawyer!
"I AM NOT A THREAT!"
I'm the future.
"I AM NOT A THREAT!"
I'm a leader!
"I AM NOT A THREAT!"
I will be somebody!
"I AM NOT A THREAT!"
I am a future lawyer!
"I AM NOT A THREAT!"
I am a future doctor!
"I AM NOT A THREAT!"
I am worthy!
"I AM NOT A THREAT!"
"I AM NOT A THREAT!"
"I AM NOT A THREAT!"
"I AM NOT A THREAT!"
That's on us!
Time to leave them some property and some businesses.
We can do it.
They are the future, it's not about us.
Our life is a sacrifice, so that they don't have to go through what we went through and what our parents went through.
And that's some real talk.
I love all of y'all.
