I loved the hood and still love the hood but I had to realize like Ra you a rapper now you're in the public eye.
RakimAllah's blessings is like everyday. I can't do nothing without mentioning ALLAH or one of his words. I can't do nothing without coming across one of his blessings or doing something and be like that's Allah talking to me or something happen to me and I say Allah gave me that.
RakimI always had deep respect for my peoples 'cause of the love they gave me and the know how that they showed me through the years.
RakimMan is symbolic to the sun. The sun is dealing with a ball of fire and didn't go out yet. Me being symbolic to the sun, that's what keeps me going, that's like my hunger. That's like my fury, my self esteem. That's the elements within me that keep my body motionable. The fire is self esteem. Inner strength.
Rakim
