Come on. Uh huh, I sure will. Good morning everybody.

You are listening to the voice, Come on now, dig me one and only Steve Harvey Man got a radio show.

What God doing, y'all? Huh?

What he doing? What he doing in your life? He doing something? He moving, he working. Don't lose your patience though, see I did that before. Don't lose your patience. Don't get so sick of waiting that you take matters into your own hands. Don't do that. Boy, you're blowing it. Listen to me. You're listening to somebody who's done it that way. I had a dream, I had a vision. I had some hope, I have some faith, I have some aspirations. But I got a little impatient waiting on it. So I tried a couple other things. Move it along, bo I can't tell you how I messed it up. Then I messed it up then because gave me the power of decision. What I had to do was then after I took matters into my own hand, messed it up. Now I guess what, he still got something fum me. But nah, I gotta fix all the mistakes now, I gotta straighten them out. I gotta I gotta suffer some consequences. I gotta pay for my transgressions, all of that, all of that, it's gotta go down. You can't do something wrong and not pay for it. It's just you call it, calma, call it whatever you want to call it. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction every action. If it just stays sunny all the time, you might think it's cool, but there's gonna be a reaction to it.

Ain't no dark, ain't no shade, ain't no break, ain't no rain.

Gonna be hard if it's just sunny all the time, vice versa. So you need you need the opposite. You need the darkness so you can get your break from that sun.

You need the rain so you can nourish the roots.

So that's the sun. Can it can soak up the sun and get the benefit of the sun. If you don't get the opposite, you got a problem, man. And it happens throughout nature, it happens throughout your life. Don't think that you can do wrong and not have to pay for that. You think this is man. We think man because we'd have made a decision that we think is best for us, and no matter how to affect nobody else.

We got the right to make that call. No you don't.

Whoever is telling you that, whoever's misguiding you into the gang life, telling you.

Yeah, man, you need to be this way to be down with us. I'll tell you what.

Get yourself stuck on chuck with that gang. See how many them be there for you. Oh they'll go around the corner with you and start shooting. But look, okay, when it's time to do some time and they can lessen they sentence, you're gonna get that time.

They gonna point their finger dead at you.

I watched for eight hours all the time, man, I watch Lock Up Raw all the time, all the time, man, all the time. Ain't no real cold dudes out there, just holding to the mantra and sticking to it. Even the mob turned state side evidence go fed all that. Now we are now the hood. We didne created this ignorant mess called no snitching. With that ignorant mess, you don't even understand. No snitching was created by criminals as a cold of honor. If you do dirt and you get busted doing the dirt, don't bring my name up. If I was with you, that's a cold of honor amongst the thieves. Now, so many code of honor thieves that then came out of prison. They ain't gotten honor. They done brought that stuff back to the street. Now, that's all in the neighborhood. No snitching. No snitching, you got to be crazy. That's for people who disobey the law. That's who people have made a cold of honor amongst themselves as thieves. Hey, man, if you get busted, don't drag me down what you just do your time. Oh man, you can't bring that stuff out here to me. I'm a law biding citizen.

Dog. I'm trying to live right over here. Man.

I don't want no crack house up street from my mama's house. I'm trying to do right out here.

Man.

You can't do wrong and expect wrong not to come to you. To make a decision every day to do right. God ain't got no protection. You on dirt. You got what you got coming. You made a decision. You go down there to get some you might get got See, we got to come on.

I'm talking to so many men out here right now.

I should have said that in beginning, but a conversation kind of got away from me. I was gonna talk to you about something else this morning. But it's just only man, because our communities. Man, it's just going to the pot man, because it ain't nobody can about nobody else. Don't nobody care When they see the young dude over there doing wrong, look at them. Foods over the man. Go over there and talk to one of them. Pull them to the side.

Man.

You might not be able to approach the group, but you can approach an individual.

Come in, young man, Let me talk to you. I saw you the other day. Man.

You look like you got something going on in your life. What's happening with you? Let me talk to you, man, Let me share something I learned. I was doing what you was doing.

You know.

It's like Tommy did a prank phone call one time as a limo driver, and the dude the prank was he called this limo company to ask this limo driver to take him to this location late at night, and the limo driver got a young business he going, yeah, okay, I got you.

I don't normally work like that. But how long you need it? He say? For just about an hour?

He said, Well, I'm gonna have to charge you for the full three though, because a three hour minimum.

Tommy told him, now, I just need it for one hours. He said, okay, I'll give you a break. Young man.

You're trying to do something. Where you want to go? He gave an address. The man stopped writing. He said, that's a bank. He said, yeah. He said, you want to go to the bank at twelve thirty at night. He said, yeah, And I'm going to be in for a few minutes. And when I come out that bank, I need for you to flow it. That to do with the limo. He stopped writing. He said, hold on, hold on, man, you want me to take you to a bank twelve thirty at night. You gonna be in there for a few minutes and you gonna come out, and you want me to flow it. He says, I don't do stuff like that. He said, you got the wrong company. He said, what made you call here? He said, hey, man, don't worry about that. You a limo company. You just drive. He stopped and took the time out. He said, young man, let me tell you something. He said, I've been down before, I've been locked up before. It ain't pretty. He said, that's what's wrong with you young people. Today instead of going to get a job trying to work your way, you're always looking for some fast money.

He said, I'm gonna tell you what I already know.

Don't go down there messing with them people's money like that because they love that money way more than they love you, and they gonna do something to you down there.

Now, you stop this foolishness.

And I'm not caring you knowwhere, but I'm gonna take a little bit of time out to tell you something. Don't go down here with messing with these people's money because it ain't gonna go good. They gonna take care of their business when they come to that money. Tommy kept insisting to this man to pick him up in the limo. It was a plank phone call. But the point I'm making is the man took our time. He could have just hung the phone up. But you know what he said. He said, hold up, young man, let me hip you to something had been locked up before. He said, no, no, no, see I've done that when I was young. Now I'm gonna stop it. I'm gonna take some moment out to tell you I'm up here, working man, trying to earn an honest living. I ain't going back down there because I don't. They make you eat what they want you to eat. You don't want the food. You got to get up when they say get up. You gotta stay where they say stay, live with who they say live. He said, man, you don't want that, and he just tried to talk the young man out of me. You can change a young man's mind with a conversation. A conversation can change a young man's mind. Most of these young men that are misguided ain't having conversations with real men.

They just not having them.

And it's up to us, who know what manhood iss, to start delivering the message. The problem that we have in our communities. We can solve ourselves. It's to escalate it to a point because we who are men won't stop on our corporate climb and our day to day making money and trying to ball out. We won't stop and grab some of these young soldiers and tell them the truth about manhood. That's the real deal. Okay, sah, I went there. I don't know where the cave.
