Eye Witness

Bro, i read between the lines , its no different then systematic racism , our youth grows into adults based on necessity to survive not from the comfort of love . We cannot raise confident children which turn into healthy adults when we continue to create violent waves of difference and refuse to change. 1 year to this day is when all Hell broke loose for me and i finally understood my past doesnt define who i am, why did  i have to learn that lesson through heartbreak? Because i wasnt raised in an enviroment where i was respected to have a voice or taught how to be a man, or loved. I was raised with violence, fear, ultimatums, the same tactics used in prison for criminals not children.... So were my siblings and their parents and their parents parents ..... its a vicous cycle of bad patterns and until one can hit rock bottom and realize its their own fault for lack of change... Then change will never come!
