Blackstreet - Dont Leave Me

Was there a moment in your life when you realized - yes, now I'm a real man? “You know, I don't give a damn, man, I, a woman, or a plant.” Absolutely. Do you know why? Because I don’t need to prove anything to myself. I like music very much. I love a lot of things, but music in particular. And when I somehow connected with music - I listen to it or play, I am not there - I dissolve in it. And there is neither male nor female, no beginning. I am absent. And when you are absent, there is nothing to prove. I might say a terrible thing, but men who pride themselves on being men have nothing more to be proud of. - Boris Borisovich Grebenshchikov
