Damn Kanye!...I also wonder. Daily Inspiration.

I had started writing a whole other post until the feeling in my gut just told me to keep it real with ya'll and myself. To be honest I'm not a blogger, I'm somewhat of a journalist but definitely not a blogger. I'm an emcee. I write dope shit, I freestyle and I just overall enjoy everything hip hop. I emcee to free myself and to one day change my conditions. I blog to help free my passion for emceeing, and I feel a need to tell my story, because who else besides me is gonna do it. (this blog ain't all about me, but most of it is!)
I have a dream! Not only do I have this dream, but I work towards it everyday! No I'm not signed to a major. To tell the truth I'm still just a local rapper (I hate the word rapper too, so I like to say emcee). I have had much major success as a local act, due to the fact that I stay on my grind daily. No one around here is working as hard as me and I'm willing to bet the both of my lungs on it.
And I wonder if you know what it means to find your dreams? Not yet Kanye. I can't say that I have found it. I know what it is, but I haven't touched it yet. I long to grab ahold of my dreams and never let them go.
All this must end one day. When I was younger with these rap game aspirations I used to just think that all I needed to do was pay my dues and the rest would come. So I did what I thought I had to do. At first I learned to freestyle (which at first i though was impossible), but I did and I mastered that. Then I focused on writing songs and lyrics, I also did that and mastered that, whew! Then I focused on performers all the great ones. I focused in on their techniques and what I liked about them I took that with me, and last but most certainly not least. When I had my game tight, I focused on the grind. And I'll be damned if I didn't master that. I sit in my city now wondering what's next in the life of this emcee? Most certainly not obscurity, I'm hoping for destiny. God knows I give it the best in me, and this is all I've ever wanted to be. I've given and sacrificed so much that there is no turning back for me. Do you wonder if you'll ever find your dreams? Yes. However I'm through dreaming. BLAXLIFE
