To the White Men Who See Me as Just Another Black Man Get Out of Your Own Damn Head

Let me set the record straight. To all the white men who look at me like I’m still “just another black guy”—trust me, I’m in my bag. I’m out here grinding, hustling, and chasing a huge bag, and I’m doing it better than most of you ever will. I know what you’re thinking when you look at me, trying to size me up, holding that judgment in your eyes like you’re somehow above me. You want to call me a “nigga,” I see it in your eyes, but you won’t say it. Why? Because you know deep down, no matter how hard you try to hate, you can’t stop us.

You can’t stop me. You can’t stop us. And no matter how much you want to keep holding onto your outdated, racist beliefs, it’s not gonna stop the wave we’re riding. So let that racist shit go. A lot of us are out here just trying to live a good life too, chasing our dreams, making moves, and getting to the top. We’re not just here to exist in your world, we’re here to take our place in it, and if that makes you uncomfortable, too bad.

You can’t have everything. The days of holding us down with your privilege are over. We’ve worked hard, and we’re not slowing down. You want to hate from the sidelines while we continue to build our empires? Fine. But know this: no matter how much you try to hold us back, you can’t erase the truth—black people are thriving, and we’re not going anywhere.

So next time you try to look down on me, remember: I’m in my bag, I’m chasing mine, and there’s nothing you can do about it. Let go of your racist baggage and learn to respect that we’re just as capable, driven, and worthy of success as anyone else. Get over it.
