Sorry, I took a different in this song, are used to be about 300 pounds into a lot of dumb shit back in the day, the pharmaceuticals , i used to lie to myself all the time, say that I’m gonna change to be a better person, get out there, and not being an angry person. Then I catch myself getting into fight and being a dick. , just letting me know I’m lying to myself. but I’m never gonna be a good person and I don’t give a fuck
Look around in today’s world... our “leaders”... our “elites”... what vision of a better future do they project? I see nothing but enslavement... what do you see?
i am starting an adventure park and i have family talking shit on my fb business page posts doubting me! thank you for this and damn right i do this shit for myself! thanks Enkay47
Enkay47 this is the type of music we need! Real life issues. If you collected unemployment checks in 2021 you were making more than you did at your job! No one wants to go back to work when they collecting $900 a week. Plus stimulus checks SMFH 😒🙄 GOOD JOB GOVERNMENT!! Nathan I have a 9 year old son who was in kindergarten when his school was closed down (worst thing they could of done). He had to learn on a laptop 4 hours a day. Well guess what it definitely didn't work AT ALL! I told the school they would see my son in school when they opened it back up. I told them to take their laptop and shove it up their ass! I tried home schooling him best i could and it was basically all of kindergarten that the school was shut down. The school and government spinned it around on me of course 🙄 they filed educational neglect allegations!! DCF was in my life so fast. To which i said "are you f****** kidding me I wanted my kid in school not on a computer at home with his parents who are trying to go to work but can't because we have to take turns doing remote schooling which is b*******I said shouldn't the school be charged with educational neglect for closing the whole school down for months and months!! No they were viewed as heroes for preventing the spread of covid even though they all ended up getting it anyway! When they finally opened the school again all of the kindergarteners who are now about to head into first grade completely unprepared we're not allowed to come back to school unless they had the influenza vaccine. I said go f*** yourself absolutely not my kids don't get that poison put into them and that's my f****** choice a lot of the moms including myself fought it and we ended up winning we brought it up to Boston and got the school to back down before we even had to go to court. Fast forward to today my son is going into 4th grade and he has been pushed into every grade with the dumbass no child Left behind act Mr Obama put into place which is a horrible horrible bill. Some kids absolutely need to stay back and repeat a grade! My son is very far behind right now and they're pushing them into fourth grade my son is extremely smart but because he missed many of the fundamentals which is all in kindergarten he's having a hard time with everything else because it's like he skipped ABC's one two threes syllables simple math sounding out words etc etc now no child Left behind is a crock of s***my son is being left behind mentally emotionally an educational wise. These schools and politicians the government they just like having another child on paper that passed it is disgusting. Everyone always asks me why don't I homeschool him well I would love to and my daughter as well but it's not super simple and having a DCF case open it's become a nightmare they will fight me every step of the way while I try to do this hopefully we'll be moving out of the area soon oh and just for reference I'm in Massachusetts. I know this was a very long read but if anyone made it this far especially enkay I think you should make a song about how the government closed down so many schools and how many kids have been f***** over and left behind because of it. F*** New world order!! Why did the government and school committees and politicians feel that they had the right to just stop School for children and then they expect them to be the same it's literal madness!! so yeah a rap about what the government has done to these children throughout covid closing down the schools in the long-term effects of how kids are doing horrible now would be a f****** awesome very real very relatable song. My inbox is open if you want any more inside knowledge of what happened. More details. The school committee and mayor governor etc should all be charged with educational neglect! One more f***** up thing educational neglect allegation that was made against me to DCF went supported!! Even though I was teaching him at home and there was no school to send him to because I wouldn't stick them in front of a goddamn computer all day that's what they call neglect! In a scene world the neglect would be sticking your kid in front of a goddamn computer all day but hey what do I know.
I’m glad I found your music brother so many of us are listening and you explained our feelings better than we ever tried to you’re talented brother don’t stop ‼️🗣️
I was molested by my "father" big word for someone who never acted like one he did a lot. I'm drunk rn and I always come back to this song so I k ow I'm not alone
I remember mom and him got the divorce he wasn't charged or convicted I turned 18 got my first shotgun 12 gauge. In my car out front of his new house woth his new wife with his new kids and I was willing to go to jail and I heard a voice tell mw he's not worth it. Went to McDonald's cried for about 45 minutes and drove an hour and a half home to where I was living with mom she asked me how I was amd I told her I'm fine
Bro let me say you’re real, you speak real, you feel real and you sound real!!!!!! FUCK THE FAKE!!!! Don’t stop and keep recording! Your my new favorite thank you
Been trying to stay clean/sober since October 2009. Started young like most. Get a few years clean and then relapse usually when i lose a family member or loved one. My mom and grandma died last year and its been one of the hardest years since feb 2023. This song hits deep Nate
This year,,the person who abused me when I was 4 years old died this year. I took this time to come clean with my family about my cousin. Many of my family members did not attend his funeral after I came clean. In that instant I did not feel alone.
@Enkay47 just want you to knkw that you are a movement. A vocie for the hurt and I really dont use this phrase a lot but, You are the Goat. The sorrow/hurt in all your music at time difficult to listen to. Once you make it through the Playlist gets longer, and the trauma from past becomes a little more num and mad Respect. God is Great and has a way with working pur problematic issues out from others greatness.
