This man was spittin' facts that are still true and he's been gone since '08.

💫 Bless his heart.😔 Far too many people get crushed by the weight and fast pace in much of the world. I'd collapse or implode without solitude and quiet space. I wish he'd found a way to make his days here more gentle and peaceful, and less painful in a healthy way. 🦋 Lord knows, he tried. EDIT: Thanks for the links. I loved Infinate Jest.💛🙏

Thanks for uploading! If you have a minute, I've been recording some acoustic covers of my favorite artists like Charlie Puth. As a fellow music lover, I'd love if you'd take a listen. It's on my channel. Hope you like it.
