oone of this might heard podcast. Come to another episode

3
00:00:26.239 --> 00:00:31.199
of the Manic Minute. You know, it's been a while

4
00:00:31.399 --> 00:00:34.960
since I've done a Manic Minute episode. Usually I do

5
00:00:35.039 --> 00:00:38.200
them to rant about things that either I'm going through

6
00:00:38.280 --> 00:00:42.200
or things that I hear on the news or on TV,

7
00:00:42.399 --> 00:00:44.719
or you know, wherever the fuck I hear them from.

8
00:00:44.719 --> 00:00:46.200
You know, Usually I come out here and I talk

9
00:00:46.280 --> 00:00:48.640
shit about them, about what I feel about what I

10
00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:54.600
hear and see. Today, I'm gonna talk about something I feel.

11
00:00:57.280 --> 00:01:03.799
You know, growing up, things were kind of tough. I'm

12
00:01:03.799 --> 00:01:08.439
not going front. It wasn't all peaches and cream, fucking

13
00:01:08.599 --> 00:01:13.239
ice creams and milkshakes, missus softy. Yeah, you know what

14
00:01:13.239 --> 00:01:17.599
I'm saying. But it wasn't always cooking and cream and

15
00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:19.640
all that other good shit. You know what I mean.

16
00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:24.560
I've had my struggles. I've gone through things. I've seen

17
00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:27.480
plenty of things, been through a lot of shit, you

18
00:01:27.519 --> 00:01:33.159
know what I'm saying. I've been knocked down, dragged, all

19
00:01:33.200 --> 00:01:37.040
types of shit. But you want to know something, I'm here,

20
00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:42.159
you know what I'm saying. I'm here, I'm alive, and

21
00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:47.680
I'm doing very well. You know. And I used to

22
00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:53.200
struggle with figuring out what my purpose was in life,

23
00:01:53.879 --> 00:01:56.959
you know, wondering what it was I was doing on

24
00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:01.159
this planet. I used to also fucking think that I

25
00:02:01.200 --> 00:02:03.840
wasn't from this fucking planet. At one point, I was like,

26
00:02:03.840 --> 00:02:05.599
I don't fucking belong here where I'm Where am I?

27
00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:07.480
Fucking people gonna come get me and take me the

28
00:02:07.480 --> 00:02:10.719
fuck away? And you know whatever the fuck? You know

29
00:02:10.759 --> 00:02:12.400
what I'm saying. I mean, I have a hell of

30
00:02:12.439 --> 00:02:17.039
an imagination, So that's just me in any fucking way. Like,

31
00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:21.719
I always wanted to figure out what my purpose was,

32
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:24.719
and I used to struggle with that on a day

33
00:02:24.759 --> 00:02:32.039
to day basis. Yo, loos, Why are you here? Why

34
00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:40.000
are you still alive? What is it about you that

35
00:02:40.120 --> 00:02:46.000
keeps you here? Why does God keep you on this planet?

36
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:49.080
Why does he keep you on this plane? You know

37
00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:52.400
what I mean? Like, what is it about you? Because

38
00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:55.919
sometimes I feel like I ain't shit, and sometimes I

39
00:02:55.919 --> 00:03:00.680
feel like I am. You know, Sometimes I feel like

40
00:03:02.479 --> 00:03:07.800
I'm here for a reason, and sometimes I feel like

41
00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:11.000
I'm just a waste of space. But today I feel

42
00:03:11.039 --> 00:03:14.800
like I'm here for a fucking reason, like I have purpose.

43
00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:20.280
I feel I have purpose, you know, I feel like

44
00:03:20.439 --> 00:03:24.599
I'm there's something I'm doing and I figured it the

45
00:03:24.639 --> 00:03:30.719
fuck out. I really, honestly truly figured this shit out,

46
00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:33.680
or I think I did. You know what I mean,

47
00:03:33.719 --> 00:03:35.319
I think I figured it out. I think I got

48
00:03:35.439 --> 00:03:42.759
to figure it out. And the thing is, I have

49
00:03:43.759 --> 00:03:49.800
a bunch of kids, a bunch of grandkids, and they're

50
00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:54.479
all I think about, you know what I'm saying, And

51
00:03:55.199 --> 00:03:58.960
I care about them, you know, I want them to

52
00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:03.719
be successful. I want to be you know, great people,

53
00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:09.639
great beings, you know, And sometimes I feel like I've

54
00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:14.400
had a hand in making them what they are today,

55
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:19.199
putting them in a position to be successful. I'm not

56
00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:22.839
going to go into each individual child because that's just

57
00:04:22.839 --> 00:04:28.920
going to take forever, but I will say this, All

58
00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:34.240
my kids are successful kids, you know what I'm saying.

59
00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:39.639
Like they've done their thing and I think I had

60
00:04:39.639 --> 00:04:42.399
a hand in that. So when I think about what

61
00:04:42.439 --> 00:04:46.759
my purpose is, what my purpose, yeah it really is.

62
00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:52.279
I think my purpose is to be a father, to

63
00:04:52.319 --> 00:04:58.040
be a leader, to be a motivator, you know what

64
00:04:58.040 --> 00:05:04.120
I'm saying. I feel like I've been put here to

65
00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:08.560
make people realize how much better they are, how much

66
00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:13.319
better they can be by leading them into the direction

67
00:05:15.639 --> 00:05:18.160
that will take them places they never thought they could go,

68
00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:25.360
by listening and understanding what it is they're going through

69
00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:32.920
and helping them by guiding them. You know what I'm saying, Like,

70
00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:36.120
I think that's my purpose, man, Like I feel like

71
00:05:36.319 --> 00:05:43.360
i've I feel like I'm here to help to help

72
00:05:43.439 --> 00:05:47.399
those in need. Man. That's why I think I'm such

73
00:05:47.399 --> 00:05:51.160
a big advocate for mental health awareness. Man. I think

74
00:05:51.160 --> 00:05:56.720
that's why I'm such a a big part of this

75
00:05:56.800 --> 00:06:03.879
podcast thing because I do it to help. I do

76
00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:07.560
it because I use it as an outlet to help

77
00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:11.519
me feel what other people are feeling and help guide

78
00:06:11.560 --> 00:06:15.600
them to get them to understand and feel what it

79
00:06:15.639 --> 00:06:18.040
is they need and should be feeling. I don't know

80
00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:23.399
right now. I feel like I'm babbling on, but I

81
00:06:23.439 --> 00:06:28.720
think that's my purpose. Man. I think I've been held here.

82
00:06:30.560 --> 00:06:34.560
I think I'm alive because God wants me to help people.

83
00:06:35.959 --> 00:06:39.759
God wants me to help guide people. God wants me

84
00:06:39.839 --> 00:06:46.519
to help those who need guidance. You know what I'm saying.

103
00:07:59.240 --> 00:08:03.399
I mean, damn, I'm just rambling on. I just I

104
00:08:03.480 --> 00:08:05.800
just got a lot on my mind, you know what

105
00:08:05.800 --> 00:08:09.639

107
00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:19.319
but they'll get better. Things will get better, Life will

108
00:08:19.319 --> 00:08:25.360
get better. And one more thing, all right. One more thing,

109
00:08:26.920 --> 00:08:30.680
mtvs to really fucking bring back music videos, man, your

110
00:08:30.879 --> 00:08:33.720
MTV raps. You know what I'm saying. Get back to

111
00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:37.080
fucking music videos. Fuck all these shows, man, this is bullshit.

112
00:08:38.120 --> 00:08:41.759
MTV is trash right now. Bro. They have Ridiculousness, which

113
00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:44.679
is a cool show, but all the other shit they

114
00:08:44.679 --> 00:08:46.919
got going on it is stupid. Man. They need to

115
00:08:46.960 --> 00:08:50.320
bring back fucking music videos. I think if they brought

116
00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:54.600
back music videos, more artists would make videos to put

117
00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:59.080
on MTV. They play all the classics shit on other channels,

118
00:08:59.080 --> 00:09:02.200
but MTV it's the original down not the original, because

119
00:09:02.399 --> 00:09:06.759
video music boxes the original dond of this shit. But MTV, man,

120
00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:11.720
bring that shit back, bro, bring back music videos, video

121
00:09:11.840 --> 00:09:15.120
blocks and shit like that. It's bullshit. I'm TV fucking

122
00:09:15.159 --> 00:09:17.440
trash right now. Bro. I can't stand it. That's why

123
00:09:17.480 --> 00:09:19.360
I flick through the fucking channels. When I see MTV,

124
00:09:19.399 --> 00:09:21.200
I'm like, a fuck this shit. I don't want to

125
00:09:21.240 --> 00:09:24.279
watch that shit no more fucking corny. Bro, Who the

126
00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:26.960
fuck wants to watch fucking MTV right now? No fucking body,

127
00:09:27.200 --> 00:09:30.480
even the MTV Video Music Awards, then the other awards

128
00:09:30.480 --> 00:09:33.240
they have, and all this other shits. Whack fucking corny.

129
00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:37.000
They need to just stop it. Video music awards don't

130
00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:42.919
even show me fucking music videos. Stupid stupid shit. Anyway,
