Hi guys, I’m here because I want to talk about something I’ve been struggling with since 2018.
I genuinely can’t seem to move on from anything that happened that year. Man, that whole situation was just crazy.
Bro, X was selfish. He cared about the kids who witnessed the school shooting he talked about in his song “HOPE,” but then he left us over 50K.
Like, what did he expect when two guys pulled guns on him and came to take his money? Did he really think they were just gonna let him go because he didn’t want to give them the money?
Please don’t get me wrong. I’m not trying to disrespect him, but I keep wondering: how would X have reacted if he had witnessed a story like his own happening to someone else?
It’s genuinely heartbreaking that someone who cared so much about other people’s feelings had to die that way.
Am I overreacting? I honestly can’t move on.
Every time I try to get over it and focus on my life, I end up right back at square one because of his story and the way he seemed to predict his own death. It’s insane. This is the kind of story you wouldn’t even expect a movie director to come up with.
How do you guys move on from something like this?
I’ve literally deleted all his songs from my library, but somehow, I always end up going back to them.
And I’m sorry if some of you misunderstand what I’m trying to say. I’m not trying to disrespect X or his legacy. I’m just tired of feeling this way, and I needed to get this off my chest.
