About Me

Name: CedricHobbies: I write hip hop songs and poetry, I'm learning to breakdance and Dj, I read, I make beats, I'm trying to get into graffiti art too, and I play video games... Hip Hop is a way of life for me but first and foremost in my life is God and the way he wants me to live comes before any and everything else... I'm just a guy chasing after his dreams. Dreams of a better world for my family and friends. Dreams of living a comfortable life.I'm a laid-back guy that just loves to enjoy life. I don't have to drink to do that. I don't have to smoke to do that. I just do me and thats how I roll. I like lookin around and checkin things out. Just observing how different people move and behave; how everyone acts. I mean the thing is everything in this life ain't what it seems and you gotta be aware of that. You gotta know that all ain't right in the world and you gotta understand that life is what it is. Its unfair, it can be cruel, it can be hard and stressful, life in itself is a struggle... but even in those respects life is still beautiful. Life is the beautiful struggle that we all go through. But how you handle what you go through determines how strong of a man or woman you are...I believe that to be true.But yeah, I love to see where a persons head is at ya know. I wanna understand how they think. How they move and how they do what they do and why they do what they do. Especially women. Women are mysterious in many ways to me but I live to understand love and life. Thats what I do...A lot of people tend to tell me I take a lot of things seriously. But life ain't a game. Its serious out here. Cuz if you not about yours your eventually gonna get play'd for a fool. Thats something I'm not. I mean there are things that need to be done. There are things that need to be said and I can't sit around and not acknowledge that. So I voice it through my music and my writings. Honestly my motive for saying the things I say and doing the things I do because I do care about people. We all need each other to survive. So we need to treat each other with respect and kindness. Even though some people don't deserve it. A wise man once said... "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you". Thats exactly what I do.I could go on for days man... but get at me on yahoo messenger or AOL messenger or through emailing me...Yahoo messenger: black_star_shining AOL Messenger: blacckstarrHeight: 5'5-5'6Weight: 140But I'm just a cool dude.
