A quote from Immortal Technique that's really inspiring

Eihtball:
I just thought I'd post this.  It appears in the liner notes for his "Revolutionary, Vol. 2" album, and it sums up how I feel about "realness" in this game:

"Delving into all my past research I have found such a sorrow in the outcome of our once great civilization, to be overshadowed and assimilated by such a lack of culture and spirituality in the form of an economic aristocracy. But while we can never change the past, we can make the future and provide a direction back to our roots. This is about leaving things behind and beginning again. It's about becoming the person you are and not needing anyone's approval to do so. I went to prison for a year, I used to rob niggaz, and do all types of insane things as a kid, but none of that made me a "real nigga". When I came home after all that and supported my family, when I went back to college, when I argued with my woman and never raised my hand to her...that made me a "real nigga". And the craziest part is that one day you'll spend so much time doing things like that, changing your destiny and being a "real nigga", that one day you'll look back and you'll realize that you ain't even a nigga no more, and you never were in the first place. Leave the past, my people."
