Success

For those "hip hop heads" if you don't know who Eyedea is than you’re the most ignorant being that has yet to hear and see Eyedea and abilities. They're still in my top 3 for any music genre. Eyedea's lyrics hit hard and go deeper and have more meaning and relativity than any other "mainstream hip hop or rap" peroid. I noticed that in a lot of his songs he writes about and uses medical, psychological, sociological, philosophical terminology than any other music artist I know that's out there aside from Sage Francis, Atmosphere, P.O.S., Alias and Sole. (basically, aside anyone else than the Rhymesayer's artists) haha. Eyedea's new track, burn fetish has been playing on my cell phone on repeat all day at work and I just love the lyrics and delivery. Even though it's emo and 1/2 depressing lyrics, it's real and I can relate, and/or have related at one point in my life or the other. (Eyedea & Abilities - By The Throat ALBUM is fuckin awesome!

I was writing a little something today and thought "Always follow and fulfill YOUR dreams, for if you don't you will remain unsatisfied and continue to avoid your self empowering life. It's always good to be a part of someone's dreams or even be responsible for making one's dreams come true, but if you don't fulfill your own dreams you won't truly be who you are and will just fill in the shoes of someone else.

For the longest time I always thought I was just like my dad from the characteristics we both shared to my one time dream of joining the Air Force just like him as well. Once I went to college and took numerous classes on philosophy, psychology and other pre-physical therapy coursework, I soon realized with my education and interest in health, the body, exercise fitness, and martial arts that my dreams and characteristics now as a 23 year old man are way different from my adolescence. When I wrote this thought to myself down I immediately thought of Eyedea's Now track. Here's the lyrics that sparked all of this in the first place..haha

Success aint only based on self esteemIt takes a sense to differentiate betweenWhats yours and someone elses dreamsI felt the screams climbing up my cold spineSaying nows the time to put in all the energyTo get rid of the enemy... I said it so.
