To the OGs Who Told Us the Truth – A Thank You from the Next Generation

Подробнее о видео

This one’s for the OGs who never sugarcoated the streets.
The ones who didn’t flex, didn’t glorify, didn’t lead us off a cliff just to feel respected.
You told us the truth, even when it made you look “soft.” Even when it made you relive pain.
You said, “This ain’t the life you want,” and meant it.
You made it out or barely made it through, and you turned your scars into warnings.
You didn't hand us trauma like a badge, you gave us a way out.

I grew up close enough to see it, far enough to choose different.
And I listened when the right ones spoke.

This song’s for y’all.
Thank you for telling us the truth.
