@lakersownsuns Yes, that's exactly my point. He is not blaming somebody for being poor, he's blaming them for, sometimes, not standing up and fighting against it. If you pick the rich team then you're not doing anything. If you pick the poor team then you have to fight back. And I agree with him. There's no need to fear the New World Order. We have to fight back not be scared of where we might end up. I also think there's something to the whole idea of being able to materialize your wishes.
@lumicious424 I can understand that the placement of blame is wrong, and that I can empathize with these people. Because I've gone days without food because of my family's lack of money. But we can't just sit here and feel sorry for them, more has to be done, but first they have to step out the mindset they've got contouring themselves and think positively. It may not make what they want appear out of thin air, but eventually, with effort. Perhaps.
daaaaaaaaaa ... people need to stop being victims and become heros ... thats if you want to become a better person so that people u called a motherfucker is clearly a genius ...
Krs One is talkin about having faith which will motivate you towards wat you want. The Secret is a bullshit book about wishing and crossing your fingers so ultimately you will get what you want with no effort behind it. Two very different things... If you think the Secret is a credible source you have many things comming to you.
@maiyasiedah NONSENSE !!!! He's saying the exact opposite. Did you even listen to the whole poem? And when he says: "vizualise wealth and put yourself in the picture", it means that it ain't that easy. If you could do that, then why is all of Africa still poor. Seriously man.. read between the lines.
Anyone who claims that they were sent here from a higer power is wrong, even though he might have something to say, he needs to be a little more humble. The way people see rap artists as, bigger, higher powers is wrong. Re-think your philosophy. Be smarter hip-hop artists are far from perfect sometimes and we shouldn't copy their lifestyles, yet we should strive to be better.
@hook282 If your using the secret as a basis of your reasoning I think you are stripped of all credibility. That being said... sure. Having a positive outlook does give you the motivation but realistically (and some can say cynically) the average man is fucked. You can pray... you can slave away but you wont go no wher1e. Not everybody is talented not everybody is gonna make it.
