Leave them.
Leave them.
Let it go.
Let her go.
Let him go.
They don't deserve that much power over your life.
Let them go.
I know they hurt you.
Let it go.
They only still have power because you still hold it on to it.
Stop being average.
Take this forever.
Please take this and run with this.
If somebody did you dirt, somebody harmed you,
somebody did you some type of way to me,
a huge favor.
If it's as deep as you say it is, cut.
But whatever you do, don't hold on to them
and then hold on to the air.
I can actually see people who are eating success up,
and it's a poison.
If it's abused, then cut it.
But whatever you do, don't forgive somebody.
Don't stay with somebody.
Don't live with somebody.
Keep putting that dirt
in their faith every single day.
Don't do it.
Let it go.
When you leave this room,
you will take full ownership.
And the reason why I say is my fault,
even when it's not my fault,
because when I say it's your fault,
I give you power.
I give you control over my life.
And I will never give another human
control over my life.
It's my thought.
It's my problem.
I'm coming up with a solution for it.
But you know, your problem is not your enemy.
Your problem is the people you love.
you are not where you're supposed to be because you're still entertaining people you love about where we're supposed to be.
You still babysitting the footman when you're on the horse.
And you're stopping on every occasion to go back to those who you love, who ain't caught up,
because you're trying to go back and get them.
He said, leave them.
Leave them.
That ain't your job.
I know you love them.
I know where your heart is.
But I also know I'm the one that's responsible for where you are, where you are.
They're not responsible for your men.
I call you to do this.
I need you to do what I told you to do.
Are you not hearing what I'm saying?
I'm on the farm with billionaires,
but I'm also on the farm with folk who broke,
and I'm spending more time with the broke folk.
When the billionaires, like, come,
we're trying to get you so you can do it gotcha.
I'm talking about Christian billionaires
who are saying, where are you?
Why aren't you in this city?
I can't get there because I'm in this city
trying to convince this person.
We need to get over here.
And God has said, just go.
I will get them there if they're supposed to get there.
They ain't supposed to get there.
I don't need you to get them there.
Amen, so I'm just saying in the room today, some of you, you should, like me, you should be ashamed of yourself.
You're not, you are not where you should be.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
Now, if you compare yourself to your siblings, you probably got it going on.
If you compare yourself to the people in your environment, you probably got it going on.
But the measurement is not the people in your church.
The measurement is not your cousin.
The measurement is not your parents.
And why am I transparent?
because I'm not a slave to you.
I'm not a slave to your image of me.
I'm struggling.
I'm human.
I didn't have the best situation.
My whole life, bro, like, this is really what happened.
I don't got a fake what happened.
This really what happened.
And you rock with me because you're like,
yo, he really is.
So we're going to focus on one thing
that we've already gone through
that we can help other people out
and we're going to give it all my energy.
Now see where I'm going?
Come on, come on, come on.
A lot of y'all, I need to make more money.
So I'm going to go over here, and I'm going to go over here.
And I need this person to love me, so I'm going to be this, and I'm going to be that.
And I want this to happen, so I'm going to do this and I'm going to do that.
Stay focused.
Stay right.
I want to make a lot of money, so I'm going to stay right here.
I want to make a lot of money, so I'm going to stay right here in my gift.
I want my spouse to love me, so I'm going to be predictable.
I'm going to stay right here.
Come on, y'all.
I'm taking ownership.
I'm taking ownership.
Come on, I'm taking ownership.
ship. Listen to me closely. I'm not saying it's your thought, but it's your solution. I'm not
saying you didn't do it. But you owe it to yourself in this country to let that stuff go so you can
be what you're supposed to be. Now, I'm going to count the three because there's somebody else.
You got a lot of pride. That's why you where you are right now. Let your ego go. You're amongst
family. Let your ego go. You're amongst family. Let it go. You need to stand because you're still
holding somebody else hostage for what they did to you.
And I need you to let it go.
Average people can't forgive.
Average people can't let go.
The greats, we do whatever it takes for self-preservation.
We do whatever it takes to be happy.
You think I wanted to let my biological father off the hook?
You think I want to let him off the hook?
He left my mom.
He left me.
You think I want to let my man off the hook?
I was with my family my whole life.
I thought he was a friend of my family.
I didn't know he was my father.
I know my grandma.
I know my us.
I know my cousin.
I just thought he was a friend of the family.
And I asked him why.
He said, your mother said,
I said my mother said, how dare.
No, you're right.
My mother said.
That wasn't the answer I was looking for.
But if that's the answer you have,
I'll take it and I'll take the rest of my life.
And I'll be happy the rest of my life.
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
Come on, come on, I want you to say, I want you to say with me, I can, I will, I must.
Come on, I can't.
This is your life, not mine.
You should be more excited about your life than I am.
I can.
I can.
I can.
I will.
I must get past this.
It's our time, it's our turn, it's our country.
Let's eat it up.
Let's enjoy it.
I can.
I can, I can. I can. I will. I will. I will. I will. I will. I will my way through every situation. Every trial, every triple A, I will my way through it. I don't care if it's cancer. I will my way through it. I don't care if I'm struggling in school and I'm trying to get a degree. I will my way through it. I don't care if you fail the boards. Go again. I don't care if you failed a law exam. Go again. Will your way through it.
Some things you can skill yourself through, some stuff you've got to wheel your way through.
There are some things that you're naturally gifted at.
Others you've got to wheel your way through.
I will my way through homelessness.
I will my way through that GED.
I will my way through that Ph.D.
I will myself to 30 years plus a marriage.
I will my way through to be a better father.
I will my way through those books.
I will.
Come on.
I will.
I must.
So I need you to me a huge favor.
I just need you to be real.
And the reason why a lot of y'all don't want to be real,
because some of you would rather be in a lie and at least have a lie
than not have anything at all.
You already know the reality about that relationship.
You already know that job.
Your boss ain't about to cash you out.
You're just scared to quit and start your own business
because you don't know if you're going to do well or not.
You know you shouldn't.
Come on.
Be honest.
You know you still shouldn't be at that job right now.
Let me see your hand.
Let's just be real.
Let me see the hand.
You know you shouldn't still.
Raise it high.
Don't play with me.
Raise it high.
You still shouldn't be at that job, but you're delusional that one day is going to be your day,
that one day you're going to merge your job and your calling together.
It's not going to happen.
You're going to have to just leave.
