Heroes:
my ancestors and hard workin’ mamas y papas
continuous heroes are the familia and homies who shared a meal when i was starving, donated a dollar when i was broke, offered their couch when i was tired, passed me an available whip when i was whipless, dropped the knowledge during the ignorant moments, blessed me with their presence when i was rollin’ solo, drop the new tunes when the old tunes have been played out, turned an ultimate low to the ultimate high, and who continuously show unconditional love and support in the most amazing ways and impress me on the daily with their infinite generosity.
and where would any of us be without the unconditional inspiration provided by the homies for life?
