Fame certainly isn't for the weak of heart
Guess I just felt like addressing this a lil more in depth. I know there are plenty of ppl who would love and aspire to be famous, but why? Figure out why u want to first before rushing to try to achieve it because it most certainly isn’t for everybody and personally I've always despised the idea of it. Do you wanna be famous so u can use your influence to change ppl for the better or are you simply enticed by the money and materialistic aspect of it all? Ppl need to understand that fame is an all or nothing game. U don’t get to pick and choose what u take from it. We live in a very superficial world these days and so due to commercial music and fake reality tv I know everybody likes to believe they're living a "rockstar lifestyle" but I don't believe you honestly have a clue what that lifestyle truly entails. Simply because you go out clubbin and have a great time with numerous friends doesn't mean you're doing it. Take it from a regular person whose been there and actually did it for the past year and a half straight, it’s so much more complex than that simple shit. You go days without sleep due to constant drug and alcohol abuse. There's more liquor, weed, cocaine, and pills than you could ever imagine....and honestly more than most ppl's bodies could handle. You spend money like there's an endless supply of it. Seems like every girl's literally dying for a chance with you and everyone knows who you are and you're steadily greeted with fake hugs and handshakes. I can honestly say I've never even fuckin met or seen a fraction of the ppl who claim to "know me" or know who I am. And there's actually more that I choose not to discuss but it all comes with the territory, it's a natural part of THAT life and as much as I hate that particular aspect of it all, I had to constantly remind myself of that. "This was MY choice to live this life so I'll accept EVERYTHING that comes with it." Thats why it frustrates me when ppl like T.I. say the things they say only after they're punished for mistakes made. Either you use your fame and notoriety to lead by example or learn to accept full responsibility and the consequences for the dumb shit u continue to do because of it. I know I did.
