Miss Kid Cudi said, how do I find a manly man that works blue collar, girl, if he doesn't have those calluses on his arm and his hands, girl.
A lot of people think that they're better than men that are blue collar workers. You want a man who's gonna work for you. And if a man is working all day long, he not gonna trip about working while he's at home.
Don't get it twisted. And I'm. We're gonna. We're all family here, so I'm gonna keep it 100, 100% with you, right? A lot of y' all thinking you're better than everybody else.
And you're not.
Why am I saying this? I'm saying that because I was that person, girl. I got my MBA from an Ivy League institution. I thought nobody could touch me. I thought I was better than all these mo fos, all these fools. And I was creating walls that did not help me connect with other individuals.
So if you thinking you're better than everybody else, girl.
It'S going to be very lonely on your high horse.
And you can be on that high horse, right?
But the mentality, I'm saying we might want to change a bit. That's all.
Because if you think that you're better than other people, then the other side is also true. Which means that there are going to be some guys that you think that are better than you and that you will pedestalize.
That's what happens actually, that the guys that you think that are on your level, you will actually pedestalize and you will think that they are better than you at some point. That's the shade of it all. So that's why, girl, we gotta, we gotta mlk this love thing, girl. Everybody equal, equal in the law, honey. Yeah. Equality, dei, girl. All of that.
No justice, no peace. We're all the same, girl. Yeah.
