Aggressive people finish first
it is what it is y'all from New York you know what
I'm talking about
I'm just for real you come to New York
I promise you if you don't want to get harassed
stay in the house
You are in New York and it's 80 degrees my man like
sunglasses bro you need some sunglasses I'm like I'm good on sunglasses brother
it started raining he is like papa
you want an umbrella
they are not playing in New York they got everything
for everything my men was like I listened to the podcast
I heard your girl got MS
man I got the jelenia on discount bro I'm like on discount? discount bro
y'all look great and it ain't like you are like I'm good on the sun glasses no bra
Sunglasses
Im like, no bruh
Im good on the sunglass
you sure bruh?
I'm like I'm sure
You got aggressive like you gonna make me buy the glasses
so I had to realize I was
delusional I thought if you were a good person and you do right by people that
people will take your kindness and give you kindness back but what I
realize is sometimes in this world the kinder you are the more they try to
play you like a fool
I was delusional I'm nice to you you nice to me
don't always work like that
sometimes it's nice to me and I
take advantage of you so some of y'all you delusional I just need to do me a
favor when you are delusional you can never get the outcomes you want because
you the premise in which you're operating from is a lie
so you got to work from truth
and some of us don't want to deal with truth because it's so
difficult et you dropped out of school et you grew up in a certain community in
order for you to be able to do what you need to do like a Tony Robbins there's
some things that you don't have in your arson that if you can just admit you
don't have it in your arson then you can go get it but until you admit that you
don't have it you'll never be able to do it
so I need you to do me a huge favor I just need you to be real and the reason why a
lot of y'all don't want to be real because some of you would rather be in a
lie and at least have a lie than not have anything at all
you already know the reality about that relationship you already know that job
your boss ain't about to cash you out you're just scared to quit and
start your own business because you don't know if you're gonna do well in that
come on be honest you know you're still shouldn't
be at that job right now let me see your hands lets just be real let me see the hand
raise it high don't play with me raise it high
you still shouldn't be at that job but you're delusional that one day it's
gonna be your day that one day you're gonna merge your job and
your calling together it's not gonna happen you have to just leave
The dream will destroy you right, let it
the first version of Eric Thomas would never be
able to stand in front of you guys the first version of Eric Thomas is a high
school dropout that guy would have never been able to staying here to help you I
had to destroy that Eric Thomas that Eric Thomas that grew up in Detroit and
had like that Detroit mentality while I loved it it doesn't transfer to every community
let the dream destroy you let it strip you let it
remake and mold you don't be afraid some of you are afraid listen to me wherever
you're from if that's where you from if you leave you can always come back
I promise you I promise you when you come back you can get right back into
conversation ain't nothing going to change
I promise you whatever world you're from
if you go to other worlds you can always go back to that world are you listening to me
let it destroy you so I was talking to a coach yesterday NBA coach
I've been wanting this opportunity for my whole life for a long long time and
coach called me right let it destroy you and my natural personality is for real
bro I want to barter , let's do it you know I'm saying I give you this
you give me that let's barter we ain't got to necessary exchange money
but let's barter so coach hit me up like yo we love to you know we
love to have you come to practice we love to bring you to the games like
on a jumbo screen we love to have you come out in the crowd meet you I
was like that's cool coach but I eat now from the NBA
I could have been in any Alabama game I ain't been to none
I don't do that coach I need it I need the cheque I hit see like see I need this letter
meaning that you know
how hard it was to send that letter because I understood if I sent that
letter that that letter was only gonna do one or two things that's what you're
scared of you scared you scared to get to the real answer once I sent my man
that letter only two things gonna happen
one he's gonna pay me or two he gonna
say no thank you that's what you afraid of them you're
afraid to get to the real answer and yes while they hurt I let it destroy me
meaning what every time I do it is that much easier for me to do it and what I
had to think about was brother if you don't want to pay me and you know what I do
then I mean you're looking out for you
why because you are getting a cheque that's what I love about football bruh
you getting a cheque you making millions as a coach if you really think I'm as
good as you think I am and you just told me what I could do for the team if
you're getting a cheque every time they do better then why wouldn't you give me a
cheque and bring me in so really you showing your hand what you're really
telling me is you don't really value me because if you're really value you cut
the cheque but what you tell me is I have to talk to front office
you ain't got to talk to front office
you've got Juice
so do me a favour let it destroy you
the version of you that you are right now is a blessing but it won't
take you to the next level
what got you here won't take you there so let the
dream destroy you tear you down redefine you
build you back up make you stronger
