- I have nothing but respect for our young people
And what theyre doing.
My thing is, we adults did not stand strong
And on our square
To bring our young people through this process.
I know, I was the young person
That had to fend for himself in the streets of New York.
I know what happened, with our young people
I say, 'Look I aint mad at you', know no matter what I hear
I know that you are moving through a process
Because they are attempting to destroy the community
So theyre using you.
They are buying you out.
But we as adults, get to buy them back.
Im ready to compete with anybody for our young peoples minds.
And what we have to is change the paradigm of how were interacting with them
Deal with them from a heartfelt place where they can understand.
You see because whether you realize it or not
Its you theyre shooting in the streets.
You, young brothers, theyre the ones that are being shot.
So with this entertainment or with this music
Maybe I dont like what I hear
Maybe that I dont like some of the words I hear
Maybe that I dont like the direction
But I think theyre doing a pretty good job
Considering that we, as men, the adult men
Did not cover that when we shouldve covered that
And protected them when we shouldve protected them
And brought them up that so when we see an artist
Acting in a most inappropriate way
'Where is the father in this?',
'Where is that male mentor that can be there?'
We, as black men
Must take on the responsibility as the honorable Elijah Muhammad told Malcolm
Is that a nation is only as strong as its weakest family.
And we have got to create nations
We have to create relationships
Between the African man and the African woman
That creates a viable nation
