Mouth turn out, turn the water of the money up.
Who wouldn't come me?

Speaker 9 (01:58):
Come on your thin huh? I sure will. Good morning everybody.
You're listening to the voice, come on dig me now,
one and all that Steve Harvey Man oh Man got
a radio show, yep. Trying to make it work too.
I'm not trying. I'm getting it. I'm getting it done

(02:19):
to the best of my abilities. Now. Something funny my
father taught me. He said, son, when you've done all
you can do, if you've done your absolute best and
you look up and it didn't get the job done,
take a deep breath and do some more. That used

(02:42):
to bug me, man, when my father used to tell me.
That's the son, when you've done your absolute best and
you think you can't do no more. You've done all
you can and it still don't get the job done.
Take yourself a deep breath and do some more and
you know what I found that has worked every single time,

(03:08):
every single time, because what my father knew was that
what you think is your breaking point or what you
think is your all in all, he says, son, it's
just something about it. Man, if you just gather yourself,
you got a little bit more. Everybody got some more.

(03:33):
And I you know, I gotta be honest with you.
It has worked. It has helped me greatly. And you
know it. Everybody does have some more. You know. I
tell that to my sons all the time. Dad, I
did my best. Well, let mess you something else. Could
you have done anything else? Could you have studied a
little harder, Could you have shown up a little bit earlier,

(03:55):
could you stayed a little bit later? Yeah, well then
okay that's what you should have done. Then see, there's
always a way. But if you're going to create excuses,
if you're gonna make them up all the time about
why you don't get it done, I have a very,
very sad a statement for you right now. You're never

(04:18):
gonna get anything done. You're never gonna get to the top.
Not to the top. You can get halfway up. Now,
you can get a third of the whey up, you
can get three quarters of the why up. But if
you don't have that little extra reserve in you, you're
not getting to the top. The top is only reserved
for those that have the wherewithal and the power to desire,

(04:43):
the drive and the gut riching effort to get to
the top. The top is reserved only for the top.
It's just the top. There ain't but one top. Then
the middle done, ain't it? You know? The top, the
top of the mountain. It's a different view at the top.
Things look different from up top. So if you want

(05:05):
to get to the top of whatever your profession, your field,
your career, whatever it is, you got to do extra.
You have to do more. More is expected of you. More,
but he is what's really crazy. More is required of you.

(05:26):
Don't live your life in a laxadaisical state. Don't wake
up every day with the feeling of, well, you know,
whatever happens happens. No man have a say so in
your life. You. First of all, let me ask you something.
Who has God? Name the person that God has given

(05:47):
authority over you. Name the person? But who is the person?
Nobody has domain over you? God didn't create that person.
So what you're sitting here for man, what do you
say here for letting people who do not know direct
your path? Why are you worried about all these people

(06:08):
with what they got to say about you and all
these people with what they got to think about you?
When here's the news flash, they don't know either. All
these people that you overly concerned about, all these people
that you go into these answers for, they need answers
to stop. What are you doing here? Gother yourself for

(06:32):
a minute? Here is a solution to all of that.
You have one source that will be there for you
to the end of time, and that is your relationship
with God. That is the one thing that's solid and
for show. He's behind the wall. He's in your jail cell.
He rides with you in the police car. He's with

(06:55):
you on your job up at the school. He's down
there in the board meetings with you, goes with you
when you travel on plains. He says with you when
you're in a relationship. He helps you with your parenting skills.
He helps you. He's there to assist you. He show
if you do the right things, he show you and
guide you to your next job. When you lose your job,

(07:15):
and you think it's a rap. There's some good behind it. Man,
God is always working on your behalf. To those that
believe you, just gotta believe. He don't ask you for
nothing else. Believe in me. That's all He asks you
to do. What you're tripping for. Man, And then when
you make the decision to believe in Him, and it
comes out your mouth from time to time somewhere what

(07:38):
you're worried about, what people say, What you're worried about,
what they think for? Why who are they? They need
God to you telling them you found something new that
you're gonna give this a shot right here. Now. They
got some yang ying yang and some yak of the
yakh to say about that when they need God too.
That's what amazes me, man about people sit up in here, man,

(07:58):
be knocking your dream and stuff. Look, if you're an atheist, man,
do your thing, do your thing. But you can't create
no laws. Why I can't do mine? That don't make
no sense, man, that makes no sense at all to me.
You have the right to go be whatever you want
to be. You know if you don't, you don't like
the fact that I'm in school, got my head bowed down,

(08:20):
and I'm saying a prayer for I take this test.
Just don't buy your head. Don't you pray. But if
some kids want to get together, that's some crazy mess.
That's what happened in our schools. We took prayer out
of schools. Now look at our schools. You send your
child to school and someone else comes back home. That's
a whole nother thing right here. That's not what I

(08:42):
want to talk to you about. But I was just
throwing it out because you know, hey, man, your relationship
with God is essential to your success as a person.
It's essential to your existence. It's essential to where you're
trying to go and what you're trying to be. Because
He made you. Why would you not talk to the
person that made you to find out what he created

(09:02):
you for. I ain't talking about your parents, who made
your parents. This is God, we created in his image.
Why would you not talk to your maker to see
why you got made? That don't make sense to you.
If you're sitting and gotten yourself in a situation. You're
sitting in the jail cell somewhere, you locked up, you

(09:24):
doing some time, man, be a good time for you
to refle But whatever your situation is man, God can
get you through it. He can give you the strength,
the courage to wherewith all the understanding everything you need,
the wisdom to get you through anything you're going through.
You just got a touch base with him. I need
God every single day of my life. And what He's

(09:50):
done for me man off the chain. But guess what
he'll do the same thing for you. You're listening, ladies
and gentlemen. You know what I don't know. I can't

(10:10):
explain his laughter. It's funny, but it's really it's joy.
It's a combination. It is really really amazing what God
does for you. By waking you up in the morning.
I mean that it's a clear sign from God that

(10:32):
he ain't through with you yet, y'all. I want y'all
to wake up and look at this the right way.
If God was through with you, if he didn't have
his hand on you no more, you wouldn't wake up.
So try to look at it this way. Every time
I wake up in the morning, I realize that He
has awakened me again because obviously He has something else

(10:54):
for me to do, receive, accomplish something, and he wakes
me up so I can get to that. That right there, man,
is a game changer if you could understand, if you
could take on that notion when you wake up. So
when you wake up, man, and you realize, Man, what

(11:17):
a blessing it is? But how good is it to
be co signed by God Almighty? I will give you
a measure of health and here you are another day,
this incredible gift called the present. That's why they call
it the present, because that's what it is. It's a
gift and we get to enjoy it whenever he wakes

(11:38):
us up. That's how I look at it. Man, If
you take that on it, morning has become a whole
lot of it. And I wasn't always a morning person.
I got trained to become a morning person by a
guy named John Walker in Rochester, New York. I was
laid off from Ford Motor Company. I had signed up
for Amway and I was laid off, and so I
was sleeping late. He would call at six am every morning,

(12:04):
Steve John Walker, how you doing?

Speaker 6 (12:06):
Man?

Speaker 9 (12:06):
Hell? Whoa hey? Man? Have a great day? Click and
he'd hang up. And he did that every day for
a month till one morning he called me, Steve John Walker,
have a great day. Man, how you doing? And before
he could hang up, I said, John, John, look man,

(12:28):
it's early man. You don't never say nothing. Click. He
hung up, and so he did it again. I picked
up fall I said hello. He said, why do you
wake up like that? I said, what you mean, man,
I'm sleep He said, but when you wake up, why
do you wake up man so grumpy, so down, like

(12:49):
like you know, man, like I'm bothering you. I said, John,
it's six o'clock in the morning. He said, yeah, man,
but it's something you never had before. He said, this
is a gift for God. I'm really disappointing you that
you're not getting a lesson. So I thought about it.
So the next morning I said, I'm gonna be waiting
on this dude right here. He called me at five.

(13:09):
He called me at six o'clock the next morning. He said,
Steve is John Walker. How you doing? I said, hey, John,
how you doing? It's Steve Man, I'm doing great. He said, nah,
That's what I'm talking about, and he hung the phone up.
And for a month after that he called me every
morning and I got up and I get up at
five fifteen. Knocker, what you're not finna do? Is look
at me and think I am I don't know nothing.

(13:30):
I'm stupid. I don't get the lesson correct. And that's
what changed me into a morning person.

Speaker 3 (13:35):
All right, man, John.

Speaker 9 (13:38):
Rochester, New York.

Speaker 3 (13:40):
Coming up, Junior is going to run that prank back
right after this.

Speaker 2 (14:00):

my daughter. This is Wilton. Your daughter.

Speaker 2 (14:23):
Then bit my son.

Speaker 7 (14:24):
Well, Wilton slows down. You can't just call my house
and tell me my daughter.

Speaker 14 (14:28):
Bit you say and be cussing at me, lady, I
just said your daughter Sekira bit my son Joshua in
the back, and.

Speaker 11 (14:35):
I just said no.

Speaker 7 (14:36):
I just said no. Two things. One my daughter wouldn't
bite nobody, and two, don't call my house with this tone.

Speaker 14 (14:42):
I called with any kind of tone I want to
call with. All I'm saying is your daughter then bit
my son in the back.

Speaker 9 (14:48):
And I'm gonna tell you.

Speaker 7 (14:49):
All I'm saying is don't call my house with this
attitude saying something that my daughter beat your child in
the back. My daughter has manners and she wouldn't be
biting nobody in the back.

Speaker 9 (15:00):
What did he know?

Speaker 14 (15:02):

How the hell you figured I'm a weekend daddy, I'm
calling you about what's going on with my child?

Speaker 7 (15:33):
Uh huh? But I don't think you got your facts straight.
So next time you call somebody to tell them about
their child, figure out everything about your child first.

Speaker 14 (15:42):
Oh I'm saying, is that the people at the academy saying,
Sekira bit my son Joshua? What in the back?

Speaker 7 (15:48):
Well, I can't understand what you're saying because I don't
like your tone. So don't call me about my baby.
Have her mama call me.

Speaker 14 (15:55):
It doesn't make no difference if a mama or daddy
call along. Was somebody call hello, call her back?

Speaker 11 (16:00):
Then Hello is this caroll?

Speaker 9 (16:03):
This is why you hanging up on me?

Speaker 7 (16:05):
Why are you still calling me? And why are you
yelling at me? My child didn't bite your child in
the back. When I picked up my child, they didn't
say to me your child bus fight in the back?
My child my child every day, Like I said in

How come I know my child. I'm with my child
every day?

him in the head.

Speaker 14 (16:30):
Hey, what you ain't gonna do is sit here and
talk about my baby.

Speaker 9 (16:33):
Now you asked me to lower my tone.

Man, Okay, can I just ask you tell you something?
Can I just give you some flowers? You know, on
the first break you told the story about getting up
early in the morning. And I never looked at get
that in the morning the way you just presented it.
It's the morning. You ain't never had it before. Man,
So we just thank you for the lessons that you
do teach, man, because you ain't like you out here
just talking to me or talking to us. You actually

(19:50):
teaching us something to make us better people, Make us
better people, make a better man out of it, make
a better man for a lot of people.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
Man.

Speaker 9 (19:56):
We just want to say thank you brother something. Man.
We all have a choice in the morning. We have
a choice every day to decide who we're going to be.
God gives us all that right. You could be a
good person or bad person. You get to pick. You
can be a positive person or a negative person. You
get to pick. Yep, And so I chose. I choose

(20:20):
to be a more encouraging person. An uplifting person as
a part of I'm not gonna be a part of
a trash tabloid or a trash blog that destroys people
and talks about people and revels in the misfortune of
other people. I choose not to be that way. I
choose to be more of a positive, uplifting person. The

(20:43):
glass is either half empty or half full, and you
look at it all. My glass is always half Yeah, okay.

Speaker 3 (20:51):
All right, thank you Steve, Thank you, Junior. Coming up next,
it is asked the CLO.

Speaker 8 (20:56):
You're listening morning show.

Speaker 3 (20:59):
Coming up at the top of the hour. In entertainment news,
Diddy had a court appearance yesterday and was denied bail again,
but he did receive a court date. And did you
see former President Barack Obama campaigning for a vice president
Kamala Harrison Philly. We'll talk about that. He did his thing.
You know, he is a great orator. That's all coming

(21:21):
up at the top of the hour. But right now
it is time to ask the CLO our chief Love Officer,
Steve Harvey. Here we go, Steve Clo. Sophia and Texarcana says,
one of my coworkers has come to work in my
clothes that I donated to a thrift store. I knew
she was having a rough time after her divorce, but

(21:41):
I didn't know it was that bad. Is it okay
to offer her my clothes so she doesn't have to
buy them?

Speaker 8 (21:49):
That's a nice gesture.

Speaker 9 (21:50):
Well, I mean, your heart is in the right place.
I would invite her to lunch and become more of
a free in to her first, and then kind of
feel the situation out. Girl, Let's have lunch sometimes. How
you doing get her to open up like that? Don't
just you know, I saw you got some stuff from

(22:11):
the thrift store that I had donated here, go so long?
I would, because now you may embarrass her, yeah you know. Yeah,
And so I would probably you know, invite her to
lunch or something and and try to be free in
her and don't mention it, you know. And then and
because like check this out, she may not know those

(22:35):
are your clothes, yeah, yeah, and she may not want
you to know that those that you know. So you
got to watch it. When you're helping people, sometimes you
just got to go about it in a different way.
And you know that's you.

Speaker 8 (22:52):
Probably needs a really good friend right now and support
that's good.

Speaker 3 (22:57):
That's great advice, Steve. Okay. Moving on to Ray and Shreveport,
Dre says, I took my girlfriend to Vegas for the
first time. She said she's down for anything, So I
took her to a swingers club. We got back home
and I was reflecting on our trip. She said, don't
ever bring that up to her. Why can't I mention
that special night?

Speaker 9 (23:19):
What happened? Well, obviously she's embarrassed. She said down for anything,
that anything got into everything.

Speaker 8 (23:28):
It didn't mean that.

Speaker 9 (23:30):
Why can't I mentioned her special night? Well, okay, far
I don't know, man, next question.

Speaker 2 (23:40):
Some stuff you just don't know.

Speaker 9 (23:42):
Yeah, I mean, I ain't never had that experience. I
ain't never took on to the swingers club and didn't
want to talk about it, and she ain't want to
hear it. Dog, you don't know why she don't want
to talk about Could it be she figured she made
a mistake. She talked all that smack, then you called
on it, and now she's been in this situation. She
don't don't ever bring that up to me again.

Speaker 8 (24:01):
You know, she's not feeling it at all, all right.

Speaker 3 (24:06):
Moving on to Olivia in t Neck, Olivia says, I've
been married for eighteen years and I have a boyfriend
on the side. He told me that my husband called him. Yeah,
said that my husband called him and said he knows everything.
My husband hasn't mentioned it, so I've been walking on eggshells.

Speaker 8 (24:24):
Is he planning to do something to me?

Speaker 9 (24:27):
Probably? Yeah. First of all, let me ask you a
couple of questions. In the garage. Have you seen a
tark okay in the garage, have you seen a couple
of new rolls of duct tape? Has he bought a boat? Oh?

Speaker 8 (24:52):
Boat?

Speaker 9 (24:54):
Has he bought a boat?

Speaker 1 (24:55):
Yes, Colin, I have a question, sal okay, I'll let
you finish.

Speaker 9 (25:02):
And is he white? Because of your husband? Really, I'm
telling you right now your ass about them, because they
don't really do divorce. I've watched a lot of crime shows.
I don't know what it is about divorced white men
don't like, but they will get rid of your ass

(25:24):
before they go to court. I'm just gonna throw that
out there. I feel how you want to feel about
that statement. But every crime show I've seen Lacy Peterson,
I can go down to Scott Peterson, I can go
down the list. Everybody I know that I have seen

(25:44):
on the crime show that didn't want a divorce caller.

Speaker 15 (25:51):
So my question is, so since she knows the White
knows that her husband knows about her boyfriend, she confessed,
so she just come clean in the house and just
don't say nothing and wait for him to bring it up.

Speaker 9 (26:06):
Oh no, I'm confessed. No, she said, she's walking on eggshells.
You know, well, well, well you know them.

Speaker 8 (26:15):
Just headshill, just get the tiptoe.

Speaker 3 (26:17):
Yeah, okay, what.

Speaker 9 (26:18):
You don't want to do is try to walk through
this fire.

Why hasn't he said anything? He must be planning something.

Speaker 9 (26:24):
To leave right now. I'm telling you right now, when
the dude do that, man, you got to be careful. Yeah,
because a man's revenge is a little bit different and
there is no limits to what he will do. So
this this could be ugly.

Speaker 10 (26:45):
Then he said he didn't even mention it no more.

Speaker 9 (26:50):
Let's go over the full things you want to look

more question about your hus Is he a white? An
answer to if you have put a check block in
all of them? Yep, yep. He shouldn't do something. It's
just a matter of time for y'all. On forty eight hours?

Speaker 2 (27:35):
So should she leave?

Speaker 3 (27:36):

That's what That's what's the matter here. You know you

Speaker 4 (30:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (30:59):
Yeah, you know. Look, you can you can do what
you want to do in your private life. I don't
think your bedroom should be a court case if it's
your bedroom, but once it involves flight in anybody talking

held and threatened and beating stone pulled out once you

(31:21):

this way. You start going, Wait a minute, man, hold on, yes,
so yeah, it's abuse its power. Now you you don't,
hey man, let let me tell you something.

Speaker 1 (31:47):
I'm famous, right, yeah, you are all over the world.

Speaker 9 (31:51):
I won't even put a towel around me and go
down the hall for some ice.

Speaker 3 (31:56):
Well I hope not, sir, hope, but listen to me.
I know what you're saying.

Speaker 9 (32:01):
Yeah, you know you're not doing anything wrong. You want
to ice. I won't put a towel around me and
set a trade by the don't from room service, because no,
I can't afford that. Let nobody see uncompromising position you
to put a towel on and ran down the hallway
to grab somebody and then physically Wait a minute, man,

(32:24):
hold up, what you're not even thinking? What do you
That's that's the thought of a person who is obsessed with.

Speaker 3 (32:33):
The power and out of control.

Speaker 9 (32:36):
Out of control? What I say that right there, brother, Yeah,
that's when you've taken this thing and it's crazy.

Speaker 3 (32:45):
Well, moving on, last night, former President Barack Obama kicked
off his blitz campaign for VP Kamala Harris. He started
out in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, an important battleground state we all know,
and his speed each was electrifying, to say the least.
Early on, Obama denounced Donald Trump, calling him a selfish

(33:05):
billionaire who cares about his ego and his money and
his status. Obama told Pennsylvanians that America is ready to
turn the page and move forward. Take a listen, Pennsylvania.
We do not need four more years of that year.

Speaker 16 (33:19):
We don't need four more years of arrogance and bumbling
and busser and the vision.

Speaker 9 (33:25):
Americans ready to turn the page. We are ready to
play better.

Speaker 16 (33:29):
Story, Roman, health, crust work together instead of turning a
deaty tuble. Pennsylvania, We're ready for a president Commons's the present?

Speaker 12 (33:45):
It are?

Speaker 9 (33:49):
Hey, Hey, can I tell you what I think is
going to happen?

Speaker 6 (33:54):
Do you?

Speaker 9 (33:55):
I think there are a lot of Republicans who are
openly supportive of Trump because that's what they're supposed to do,
and I think that a lot of them are going
to get in that booth and pull that handle for
Kamala Harris, because I just think, man, that there are

(34:17):
still some good people out there who know they can't
come out against him because it will just be too public.
But I think a lot of Americans will go in
that booth and pull that lever for Kamala Harris. And
I don't care what the Poles say, because I know
for a fact DoD So there are enough of them
who know, man, we've had enough of this craziness. We

(34:38):
don't let this food hijack this party to the where
that's really not how I am. Now. There are some
people who is just like him, and a huge number
of them are just like him. But I think what's
gonna happen because I don't think he can win the
popular vote. It's this electoral thing that's got me concerned.

Speaker 3 (35:01):
Yeah, I just it's funny you should say that. I
just told my friend that today, the same thing you
just said that. I think Republicans are outwardly supporting him,
but when they go on the booth, they're going to
vote for Kamala Harris.

Speaker 9 (35:14):
Because there's a penalty if you don't support him as
a Republicans. The backlash from this dude in his the
Trumpster nation is really severe.

Speaker 3 (35:26):
Yeah, you know, well hope yeah, so yeah, I hope
so too.

Speaker 9 (35:32):
But we know what we have to do.

Speaker 2 (35:34):
We got to vote.

Speaker 3 (35:36):
We have to vote, all right? Coming up in twenty
minutes after the hour. Millions were affected by Hurricane Milton's

School see coming up strawberry letter subject?

Speaker 9 (53:12):
Is he faking it with me?

Speaker 3 (53:14):
We'll find out what that's all about. Right after this.

Speaker 8 (53:17):
You're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 3 (53:20):
It is time now for today's Strawberry Letter, and if
you need advice on relationships, work, sex, parenting, and more,
please submit your Strawberry Letter to Steve HARVEYFM dot com
and click submit Strawberry Letter. We could be reading your
letter live on the air, just like we're gonna read
this one right here, right now, and you never know,
it could be yours.

Speaker 10 (53:40):
It could be yours. Ladies and gentlemen.

Speaker 12 (53:42):
It is time for the Strawberry Letter with my good
friend Shirley Strawberry.

Speaker 3 (53:46):
Thank you my good friend Junior. Subject is he faking
it with me? Dear Stephen, Shirley. I used to sing
with the band, and that's how I met my boyfriend.
We moved to Atlanta and he started another career as
a rap. He's good at it and he does local
festivals and that's good enough for him because he works
full time. He's been talking about marriage, buying a home,

(54:09):
and having kids. But he's a lot different than a homebody.
When he's rapping, his lyrics say he is a man whore.
He calls women all kinds of names and glorifies a
woman that has had surgery to enhance her breast, butt
and lips. He says that he doesn't trust women, so
he uses them for sex and would never be stupid

(54:29):
enough to give his heart to one. I went to
a show on the fourth of July, and my auntie
and her husband went with me. My boyfriend's lyrics were
so embarrassing. He said he has a main bee and
her friend and her friend's friend, and all of them
love him. He said all of the designer clothes he
owns come from women because his sex is so good.
My uncle said that I need to reevaluate my relationship

(54:52):
and stop spending my money on my boyfriend. I swore
to him that those are just lyrics and he's totally
different than that, different than that with me. My uncle said,
my man is nothing but a womanizer, a show off,
and he's full of himself, thinking he is God's gift
to women. Then my aunt chimed in and said he's
faking it with me. She said, my boyfriend is faking

(55:14):
like he likes me because I'm a stable woman and
he's latched himself onto me. He does have two different personalities.
He sings gospel music at church and then trashes women
is rap. What he says he loves me, but it's questionable.
Is he faking it on stage or is he faking

(55:35):
it with me?

Speaker 9 (55:37):
Doggie, he said.

Speaker 3 (55:47):
He's a hustler, right.

Speaker 9 (55:50):
Well?

Speaker 8 (55:53):
Or is he taking it with me? Only you can
answer that one. How does he treat you?

Speaker 3 (55:58):
How does he treat others? Is he player? You should
know these things? Does he have other women? Are there
any signs of that? Most rappers do have different personas
when they get up on that stage. A lot of
times they don't mean what they're singing about, what they're
rapping about. It's just like actors who play different roles.
You know, they can play this role, they're not that,

(56:19):
but they play that role on TV or in the movies.

Speaker 8 (56:22):
But is your man living the.

Speaker 3 (56:24):
Life he raps about? That's the question. Have you asked
him to tone it down because his lyrics make you
uncomfortable and they embarrass you. That's the key, because even
if he's not living that lifestyle he raps about, you're embarrassed.
You're hurt by what he talks about. You know, you're
embarrassed in front of your family. So either you need
to break up with this guy because you can't support

(56:45):
his rap career, or stop going to his shows. And
taking people with you to his shows because you can't
take it. I mean, you're a singer. That's how you
met him. He wouldn't like it if you sang about
other men on stage when you're performing. So you have
every to feel how you feel about this guy, Steve.

Speaker 9 (57:04):
I don't The subject is is he faking it with me?
I don't see in me? And I will try, but
I don't see any redeeming qualities. I just don't. I'm sorry.
I'm listening to the letter and at the end where
I had to bust out laughing, after all this was said,

(57:25):
he a gospel singing at church. What dog did you hear?
A whole letter? Now, Stephen Sherley, I used to sing
with a band, So it's a woman righting there. That's
how I met my boyfriend. Then it jumps to we
moved to Atlanta and he started another career as a rapper.
What he's good at it He does local festivals and

(57:50):
that's good enough for him because he works full time.
All right. Now here we go. He talks about getting married,
by a house and having kids. But he's a lot
different than a homeboy. When he's rapping. That's a weird
description coming from a woman who make it a husband

(58:11):
and a father and a deal from a man. Oh,
he's a homebody, I'm saying, but he's a lot different
than a homebody. When he's rapping. Now, his lyrics say
he's a man whole okay, right right here?

Speaker 2 (58:30):
Wow, bruh.

Speaker 9 (58:32):
He calls women's all kinds of names. He glorifies a
woman that's had surgery, a breast done, button lips, and
he say he don't trust women, so he uses them
for sex and would never be stupid enough to give
his heart to one. These are lyrics that he wrote,
and he's rapping. This ain't somebody else's or what it bars.

(58:57):
These his bars, he wrote. I went to a show
on the fourth of July. My auntie and her husband
went with me. My boyfriend lyrics were so embarrassing. He
said he has a main bee and her friend and
her friends, and all of them love him. He said.
All the design to clothes he don't come from women

(59:17):
because his sex is so good. Now, my uncle said
I need to revaluate my relationship and stop spending my
money on my boyfriend. I swore to him that those
are just lyrics and he's totally different than that with me.
My uncle said, my man is nothing but a woman
eyes or show off, and he's full of himself, thinking
these God's gift to women. At this point, I agree

(59:39):
with your uncle. I'm just gonna be real with you.

Speaker 6 (59:43):
You can't.

Speaker 9 (59:45):
You can't have all these different lives. But see, he
wrote those lyrics. Now, I got most people don't live
the life of the lyrics they write. But what you're
writing them for? All right?

Speaker 3 (59:59):
Hold that thought, Steve, Hold your thought. We're going to
come back and have part two of your response to
today's Strawberry letter? Is he Faking it with me? At
twenty three minutes after the hour right after this, you're
listening hard morning show. All right, Steve, come on, let's
recap today's strawberry letter. The subject is is he faking

(01:00:19):
it with me?

Speaker 9 (01:00:21):
I just didn't see anything redeeming in this letter. This
letter meant this. She used to sing in a band.
That's how she met a boyfriend. They moved to Atlanta together.
He started a new career. He been rapping. She said.
He good at it because he get jobs at local festivals. Okay,
I used to work at taverns and bars. When I started,

(01:00:44):
you know you, I was good at it, but the
money wasn't good to me, so I don't anyway. You know,
y'all been talking about marriage, having kids, getting married by
in the house. But he's a lot different than a
homebody when he's rapping. So his lyrics a contrary to
what he says. He wants a wife, a house, and kids. Uh.

(01:01:06):
He trashes women. He calls them out, they name. He's
a man who, according to him, he glorifies women that
has had surgery is done. Uh. He he uses women
for sex. He would never trust any woman enough to
give his heart to one. You went to a show

(01:01:27):
on the fourth of July with your auntie and her husband.
His lyrics were so embarrassing to you that your uncle
set up there and said, hey, listen, stop spending your money.
His lyrics were talking about how people buy him designer
clothes that he gets from women because his sex is
so good and blah blah blah. The uncle told her

(01:01:49):
you need to stop, you need to revalue your relationship
with do quit spending money on him. I swore to him,
those are just lyrics, and he's totally different than that.

Speaker 2 (01:01:58):
With me.

Speaker 9 (01:01:58):
My uncle said my man is nothing but a womanizer,
a show off, and he's full of himself, thinking these
God's gift to women. Then my aunt chimed in and said,
he's been faking it with me. She said, my boyfriend
is faking like he likes me because I'm a stable woman,
and he's lashed himself on to me. He Now here's
a line that gets us ready to get up out

(01:02:19):
of him. He does have two different personalities. Okay, well,
then that does mean at times he's one or the other.
That's what that means. So is he the rapper or
is he the guy that's the homebody. But then you

(01:02:41):
threw another one in. You said he's sang gospel music
at the church. I fell out laughing. I fell out laughing.
Who is this boy? Right? He's sanging gospel music at
your Now you got to be careful though, because if
it's confusing to you, if you get these lyrics mixed up.

Speaker 3 (01:03:05):
Uh, he mixes up his rap lyrics with the gospel song.

Speaker 2 (01:03:09):
Is that?

Speaker 9 (01:03:10):
What do you know? The problem here? Mother Mary was
the baby, but who was she? Really don't know? Hold up,
hold up, pardoner, where we're going with this? So he
sings gospel music at the church and then trashes women

(01:03:32):
in his raps. He says he loves me, but it's questionable.
Is he faking it on stage or is he faking
it with me? He's faking it period. Okay, let's take
you and the relationship about the mix. Who is this guy?
If you'll try to describe him, how would you describe him?

(01:03:54):
Is he a homebody? He loves children, having a family,
but he raps on stage and he trashes women. He
says he gets all his down designer clothes for women
he has sex with because he has sex with him
so good. And now he's sang at the church. He

(01:04:14):
sang got some music. I don't think this young man
knows who he is yet, because I would not attach
myself to a wagon or a team of horses and
each horse is going in a different direction. You're gonna
get told part like that. If you hit yourself to

(01:04:35):
a man to a wagon and he's got a team
of horses, they all got to be going in the
same direction. And before you get on this wagon, ladies,
you got to make sure that's the direction you want
to go too, that you can either support it or
ride along with him. Is that where you want your
life to go? But if he can't show you direction

(01:04:57):
his life is going, why would you attach yourself? Today?
Most women I knew no want to be loved, cared for,
cared about, feel a sense of security, have love in
their house, go somewhere, travel with their man, laugh and
enjoy their play games. You know, go double date. That's

(01:05:20):
what women really want to do with a man. You know,
we got a life together, We got this family. But
your dude man is all over the place, and your
uncle hit it spot on you up on stage, rapping
all these legs about how good you are and how
many women you got it. You never trust one. And
my woman loved me and all her friends, and that's

(01:05:42):
what made you sick because your friends like him too.
But I think I don't know, man, I don't see it.
I don't see it. Little good, No, young lady, I
really don't tell you. But that gospel say the church
that was too funny to me. I hollered.

Speaker 3 (01:09:38):
On the top of the hour, Thank you pimp, and
thank you JR. A mom wants to know how to
stop her son from being a bully. We'll get into
it right after this.

Speaker 8 (01:09:47):
You're listening morning show, all right.

Speaker 3 (01:09:52):
See, this woman needs some advice, Okay. Her name is
Diana in Norfolk. She says her son is a bully
and he hit her nephew with a dump truck. He's
only four and she can't control him because his daddy
wrestles with him and says it's to toughen him up.
She says, my sister doesn't want my son around her

(01:10:14):
son anymore, and that saddens me. How do I get
his dad to stop being so rough with him and
set a better example for our son.

Speaker 9 (01:10:22):
Well, it's not the being rough the part that's going on.
It's how he's raised as a person.

Speaker 2 (01:10:31):
You know.

Speaker 9 (01:10:31):
Now, if rough doesn't come with consequences, then they gonna
apply this roughness in the wrong place. You know, my
daddy raised us to be rough and tough. But now
when it comes to your family, you leave that outside.
You save all that rough and tougher than boys on
that block. That's where you be rough and tough. You

(01:10:52):
come in this house. Your family is your family. He
just he's got to teach the boy the difference, because
toughness has to come with the consequence. You know, you
can slap who you want, but you raise your hand
in your mama, you already noticed the last time you're
gonna raise up anything. You got it. But you know
he's four and there's no four year old. I can't

(01:11:13):
do nothing with that. That that's not not in not
in the right people's house. And that's what's wrong with
these new fangled parents, y'all. Not y'all. Y'all didn't take
y'all's hands off these kids too much.

Speaker 8 (01:11:25):
Yeah, she said she can't control him.

Speaker 9 (01:11:27):
Before what four year old I can't control.

Speaker 3 (01:11:32):
You come to my house? No, okay, And that's gonna
her son. It's her son, though she can't control them.

Speaker 1 (01:11:41):
But that's gonna be a problem when he goes to school, when.

Speaker 9 (01:11:44):
It's gonna be a major problem when he does be
a problem. It's gonna be a problem when you get
out on them streets. And he'll know because it's because
I don't care who you are. That somebody stronger, faster,
and tougher than I don't care who you are. They
got a match for all that you've got. Go to jail.
I'm telling you right now. Go to jail. You fin

(01:12:05):
to find out. Well, I'm the bad who says, well,
but if you don't get this boy disciplined, that's what
happens to undisciplined boys. You either going to the grave
or you going to jail. That's what's happening. That's what
happens to undisciplined boy. Yeah, so you better like carl
And said, what are you gonna do when he go

(01:12:26):
to school? You got to get a grip on this now. Man,
It's okay teach your son to be tough, but the
consequence is where you apply the toughness.

Speaker 8 (01:12:34):
Yeah, he's for get it together.

Speaker 9 (01:12:36):
You can.

Speaker 3 (01:12:37):
You can RAI together. He's only four. We have time
for another one, Steve. This is from Marissa and Stafford.
She says, I'm still in love with my ex husband
and he told me he's engaged. We had a heart
to heart after our divorce and he said he was
just not the marrying type and he needed to be single.
When he told me he's getting remarried. I asked what

(01:13:00):
the woman had that I don't have. He got mad
and won't speak to me anymore.

Speaker 9 (01:13:03):
So I don't know what to do.

Speaker 8 (01:13:05):
Why did he block me and refused to answer my question?

Speaker 9 (01:13:08):
Lady, it's over? Yeah, what's the matter. Yeah, he told
you to just you know, make you feel okay. I
ain't the marrying kind. I don't want to do this
no more. Next thing, you know, he getting married. He
ain't the marrying can and he don't want to do
this no more with you.

Speaker 1 (01:13:26):
That's the painful part.

Speaker 3 (01:19:35):
Our last break of the day and some closing remarks
from the one and only Steve Harvey that you don't
want to miss. Right after this.

Speaker 8 (01:19:42):
You're listening Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 3 (01:19:45):
All right, guys, here we are our last break of
the day on this Friday for the week. It's getting close,
it's getting close to election days, getting close to the
end of the year. A lot of stuff going on, Steve, Yeah,
take us out.

Speaker 9 (01:19:58):
Hey, you know, y'all listen. I was talking to the
radio team my family here off the air, and sometimes
I have to remind myself of things. You know, I
don't care who you are. You have the capability of

(01:20:19):
learning every day. Now, there are some things that you
can really master, like manhood. I've mastered manhood. I know
how to be a man. There's nothing new about manhood
you can tell me. But there's a lot about success
that you can tell me. There's a lot of new
principles and not a lot of new tactics I can
learn along the way. And one of the things I

(01:20:42):
was talking with the family about was I had to
remind myself that dreams are dreams. They become goals when
you set a date, when you when you when you
have an aiming part. Let's say you take your dreams

(01:21:02):
and you put them out there and you put them
in a circle. You put them in an open iron
rim circle, and you put all your dreams in that circle.
Those are just dreams in a circle. But if you
take that circle and you mounted ten feet off the
ground and you put it on the backboard, that backboard
becomes a rim. You know what they call the rim

(01:21:24):
in basketball the goal, because now you're shooting for something
and it becomes a goal. So what like the analogy
I just came up with. Dreams and visions are fine,
but they become a point of action when you turn
them into goals. See, it's one thing to have a

(01:21:48):
dream or vision. It's another thing to try to attain it.
You know, you can sit up and won't, won't, won't, won't, won't.
Ah wish, wish, wish, wish, wish, hope, hope, hope, hope.
But if you don't set into action a plan to
achieve it, what are we doing. It has to become

(01:22:11):
a goal, something that you're aiming for, shooting for, because
if it's not, it's just a circle on the ground
with dreams and visions in it and aspirations and hopes.
But if you put it on the backboard, you put
it ten feet in the air. Now you're shooting for something.
It becomes a goal. It causes you to have a

(01:22:34):
point of action. And what I decided to do was,
there's something I've been talking about doing for a few years,
and I've been getting closer and closer to it. But
you know what I hadn't done yet to this one
particular goal. I hadn't put a set date on it.
And just the other day, I said, you know what, man,
and for the first time, I set it out loud,

(01:22:57):
I'm gonna do this, and then when I'm done with this,
that's going to be it. And it changes because once
you make it a goal, you know what happens to you.
You develop a sense of urgency. See, because now once
you set a goal and you put a date on it,
now you work differently. It ain't no just wake up

(01:23:19):
and see how it goal. You wake up with purpose.
You now have a driven purpose because now you're trying
to get it to accomplish in a set amount of time. So,
like I'm saying, y'all, dreams and visions are wonderful and beautiful,
but you got to take that rim and put it
on the backboard and make it a goal, something to

(01:23:40):
shoot for. And the goals can be dates. You need
to put a date on this thing, man, so you
can develop a sense of urgency. And once I set
this date on a goal, I started working towards it differently.
I started going, wow, man, I got to move like
this and move like that. Now, that didn't cause me
to become more anxious. It didn't cause me to worry.

(01:24:03):
It didn't start make me trying to do this. It's
just that now I've given it to God. I've told
God this is the goal. Now show me how to
accomplish that. And at the same time, let your will
be done, meaning it could take a little bit longer,
but also it could happen a lot sooner. That's how

(01:24:28):
God works, because if you knew the exact date that
everything would happen, you wouldn't need faith no more. All
you need is patience. But God requires our faith, our
belief in things that we cannot see. That is the
relationship between you and your creator. Faith. Do you believe
in me when they'd encountered you out? Do you believe

(01:24:50):
in me when you can't see no way? How do
you believe in me when it seems undoable? Do you
still have the faith that it will be done? That's
the relationship I want to always strengthen with God. That's
the one you should shoot for. That's the goal. So

(01:25:13):
as you move forward, you all set some time frames
to what you want to do, but also be open
to the will of God. It'll change the way you work,
It'll change your sense of urgency, and it'll change your
sense of purpose. When you wake up in the morning.
That's an important aspect of getting the where you want
to go. So man, So right now I got a plan.

(01:25:35):
Right now, I have a point of action, and right
now I got all the faith in the world that
it will happen. But I'm also open to the will
of God. Let your will be done on earth as
it is in heaven. And then give us this day
our daily bread. Give me what I need for today,

(01:25:56):
and forgive us our trust passes. As we forgive those
who truspass, it gives us. You gotta forgive if you
want to be forgiven. That's a lot. So I hope
you got something from that today. Have yourself a great weekend.
Talk to God. He would absolutely love to hear from you.
And don't be ashamed that you ain't talked to God
in a while. He know that that's one of the

(01:26:16):
biggest trick the devil us. You ain't talk to him
in a while. I ain't no need of going now,
no go now, It's okay. He understands. They have a
great vie.
