Fake Ex Friend by Gena Storm Spoken Word Freestylist

I’m not capable of fake love, I don’t comprehend, how do people fake kick it? my face won’t allow a fake smile, I’ve been this way for quite awhile… ever since I learned that guarding one’s gate is a necessity I’ve been diligent in doing so, ridding myself of toxic people, food, energy and vibes daily, protecting this lady, my social media activity, what I watch on t.v. and what I intake or read… cautious…

No one has the power to block your blessings but you

  People can hate on you! People can stand in your way! People can try to hold you back! People can lie on you! People can go completely out of their way to stop you from getting what you (or they) believe that you should have. But…… NO ONE HAS THE POWER TO BLOCK YOUR BLESSINGS BUT YOU!
