17:17 - i got it … a songwriter that is also a singer ( as a listener ) … sounds like #nonfiction . It’s like witnessing a dance that you understand the same shoes have been not only felt . But also worn

His verbiage is peppered with manifestations and affirmations.

[@seacprogrammer8455]

So here we have in powerful contrast the dreams and aspirations of a typical ( dare I say typical , understanding that Carlos here ain't typical, but you get my angle ) .. Brooklyn back man looking to do positive things with his accomplishments. Versus ya know the Great (WHITE) American dream ... more stuff faster cars blah blah.... Interesting to see what comes --people get stardom, fame and money and forget they wanted to help , and could I needed the last Min or so ... Peace
