Sensei Steve — ‘Humanity’ & ‘Vices’ Spoken Word
[03:21:15] Hey. [03:21:16] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. [03:21:19] Is this? [03:21:19] Is this what I think? [03:21:21] Sensei Steve. [03:21:24] Right there. [03:21:27] You got to be on it, my brother. [03:21:29] On it. [03:21:31] All right. [03:21:31] Welcome. [03:21:31] Welcome. [03:21:33] All right. [03:21:36] Good evening, everybody. [03:21:37] Good evening. [03:21:39] As you guys heard, I go by Sensei Steve. [03:21:43] I was able to meet Tyler and the Speak Your Truth crew through Melissa. [03:21:49] And I’m here to talk about the millennials versus the world, which is a podcast that I work on. [03:21:55] So shout out to them. [03:21:55] Shout out to them. [03:21:56] And right now I am just the hair changes. [03:22:00] The hair changes. [03:22:01] So, yeah. [03:22:03] Change is a constant. [03:22:04] So we always want to remember that. [03:22:06] And one of the main reasons that I’m up here, not only to share, but also to, like I say, speak your truth. [03:22:14] We all have certain levels and bumps of anxiety. [03:22:18] Whether it be positive anxiety or negative anxiety. [03:22:19] Whether it be positive or crippling. [03:22:22] So just wanted to give myself a moment to actually be able to share a piece of something that I wrote. [03:22:30] So I’ll be sharing two pieces. [03:22:32] The first one, especially just as you feel the vibes in that sense, will be called humanity. [03:22:44] We lost it, but I haven’t lost hope in humanity. [03:22:49] What’s so simple cannot be found in our society. [03:22:54] Something so basic, innate in children, but seemingly lost during puberty. [03:23:01] Not everyone, but way too many can grasp this necessary mentality. [03:23:09] Once upon a time, I recall that the golden rule exists and that stated that the energy [03:23:16] that you put out will come back. [03:23:19] Trust this. [03:23:21] It can be gentle, kind, supportive, and full of glee or a disaster, pain and strife, having you asking why ye. [03:23:35] But with reflection, a thought of the past, you can see clear as day 2020. [03:23:46] Some would say. [03:23:47] the reason that you dealt with these cards is because these cards you chose [03:23:53] to play were up to you to make it do what it do as it does okay thank you [03:24:04] thank you thank you thank you thank you and my second and last piece for today [03:24:12] is entitled, Vices. like I said as I kind of paid attention and took in all of the [03:24:19] beautiful artists that I was able to see that these were the two pieces that felt [03:24:26] the most appropriate to share so, Vices, vices can be so enticing a desire to [03:24:36] enjoy in a personal delights you long and lust for the sensation that [03:24:42] that you get when you’re with your vice. [03:24:45] Could be a person, place, some weed or drink, [03:24:48] a pill or potion, unnatural desires you can’t explain, [03:24:53] but you feel oh so amazing. [03:24:57] And your inner divine conscience is just shaking its head [03:25:03] because you know you’re being toxic, [03:25:05] slightly delusional in the head. [03:25:08] You can break it, how? [03:25:11] You can’t shake it, no matter how hard you really try. [03:25:15] But what is effort when solutions are already known [03:25:20] and execution is up to your choice of action? [03:25:24] You can make an excuse or create any type of distraction. [03:25:32] We all must help ourselves to overcome [03:25:35] so one day we can say the only vice I have [03:25:39] is for genuine love. [03:25:41] Progress and for better days. [03:25:45] To always know that I can be a better me. [03:25:48] Change that I can perceive and make vices positive. [03:25:56] A paradigm shift you will see. [03:26:00] Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. [03:26:09] Hey, bro. [03:26:11] You got the voice for audio book, bro. [03:26:16] Yeah, you and Brown Paper Dog need to do an audio book [03:26:18] for real, for real, on Spotify or something. [03:26:21] You got the voice for it. [03:26:22] I’m already subscribed for it. [03:26:24] Set it up, I’m subscribed for it. [03:26:25] I promise, I promise. [03:26:27] Hey, give it up for him one more time, Sensei Steve. [03:26:29] Give it up for him, yeah.
