    Y’all wanna know something crazy ? About 30 mins ago I was ready to give up. Balling my eyes out. I said fuck it, no friends, no family. Feels like no love, I was done. And then this video popped up. 🙏🏾
    Edit: thank you all so much, words cannot explain how all these positive comments have helped me. Y’all are amazing

      Thank you for sharing. Willing you health, peace of mind, lightness of heart and success in all your righteous endeavors. I believe society is controlled by forces of darkness. We are encouraged to seek happiness outside of ourselves because “they” know that the spirit of the creator can only be connected with internally. When ever we reach out and encourage one another we are working on behalf of our creator. Be encouraged, you are here for a reason and a purpose. Don’t let the dark forces win… they want you locked in your room disconnected. You have so much to bless the world with, and you are the only one who is in possession of the unique gifts that the world is in need of.

    Kevin!!! A lot of people question me why I listen to you so much! & it’s because it has gotten me through so much! I don’t know nothing about cooking that stuff (haha), but the emotion you put into your music helped me much more than you can ever know. You will always be my favorite rapper ❤️❤️❤️

Without knowing what you’re going through or what your intentions are. Anywho I came to the restroom while at work and here I am crying my eyes out because I felt this deeply.

    Fantastic interview! New found respect for Kevin 💯 A piece of life changing advice I got from a therapist… “If you can imagine a spectrum. At one end is sadness, the other end is happiness. Two extremes on opposite sides. What lies in between? Peace with yourself/life! If you can wake up everyday, acknowledging all the peace in your life, happiness won’t seem so far and you’ll stop seeking that “extreme” and just seek to go about your everyday with peace.” and nothings been the same since!
    Don’t get hung up on the “extreme” feelings of sadness or happiness. It comes and goes. Seek peace in everything you do and happiness finds you. 🙏🏾💝

    I've been like that numerous of time.😔😢 My soul just tired, ppl think just because you smile and laughing you're happy. I've been dealt a hard hand. I've learned that "GOD DOESN'T GIVE HIS HARDEST BATTLES TO HIS TOUGHEST SOLDIERS, HE CREATES THE TOUGHEST SOLDIERS OUT OF LIFE'S HARDEST BATTLES," with that being said keep going don't give up because some people that was dealt a good hand couldn't walk a miles in mines/your shoes. Only the strongest to survive, in my Kevin Gates voice carry on🙌
