"My face had been squinched up for so long, at one point, I forgot what it felt like to smile. To suffer in silence is to die a coward. There's no nobility in living in a façade. This is dedicated to the little black boy who was told to "man up" and was forced to grow up too soon.

I dedicate this to all of the emotionally detached Brothas, silently wishing that someone could see their pain. I'm here to tell you I SEE YOU.... But most of all.... I feel you, Bruh.''- Willie J. Hannah.
