Be careful when you look for love





Phony Ppl are one of my favorites. I actually don't watch music videos so Marianne recently sent me this song as a reminder of ... Well, reasons why I love the moon (contextually and literally).

Roy Wood$

Met a new friend that lives on my street. He played Roy Wood$' album, Exis, last night. Although I've heard Drama (ft Drake) before (of course), my personal favorite on this album would be Get You Good.

Textures





I always strongly felt that love is the love I have for my friends. I guess there's a lot of expectations I've had stirred up in my head, hoping that this will turn out alright, but you know, in the end, these expectations are the root of all heartaches. Yet, there's nothing better than a group of friends that will always be there for you to mend your heart that you broke yourself.

Anyway, here's a list of songs that are not simp-y:
1. Marvel Alexander - Why my ol' Lady gotta be a Thot (PP Remix). And this is the original.
2. Father - Vamp (ft. Tommy Genesis)
3. MadeInTyo - I Want
4. Playboi Carti x Da$H x Maxo Kream - Fetti
5. Fat Trel - Say my Name

PS.


SOML



If you haven't heard this yet ... Simp easy.

Friday, January 22, 2016

I decided to sit down and reflect on my past actions- To which, I admit, I did not handle many situations very well. To begin, running was always my better alternative, and I used that in every situation: when I get angry, sad, and even happy. I would put on my running shoes and run. Through time, this alternative became much more than that; this alternative became my solution for everything. In certain circumstances, such as, avoiding contact with people, I would find excuses and reasons to mentally run away from them. This happened with one person, and this led to another, to the third, and so on. I guess you can say I started developing a bad habit, and I've started to hurt a lot of people along the way-

I'm not sure what I'm trying to say anymore, but one thing for sure is that running can only do so much.

If you're running away from something, just remember that whatever you're running away from, it will always catch up to you.
