I see a lot of things during my travels around North Philadelphia. This, however, was a really wonderful and pleasant surprise.

Wonderful.

“If you walked by a street and you was walking on concrete and you saw a rose growing from concrete, even if it had messed up petals and it was a little to the side, you would marvel at just seeing a rose grow through concrete. So why is it that when you see some ghetto kid grow out of the dirtiest circumstances and he can talk and he can sit across the room and make you cry, make you laugh, all you can talk about is my dirty rose, my dirty stems and how I’m leaning crooked to the side? You can’t even see that I’ve come up from out of that”
