I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's up to Sis Tea? You're listening to the Daily Game, the compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that I've found inspiring and help me through the game of life. Today's quote doubles down on a common saying. We've all heard that the truth can set you free. But in this edition of the Daily Game, we're gonna unpack that and take it a step further. Before the truth can set you free, you need to recognize which
lie is holding you hostage. That is a lot of lies out there. You're gonna get paid less if you're a woman, if you're from the hood, you can never get out. All black people can do. All the hood kids can do is sell drugs. If you go to college, you're not going to get a job. There's a lot of lies that are bullshit that I hear people saying every day. You got to get past all these lies. A lot of the lies that are out there are
just really lies set up to stagnate you. You know, then you gotta be willing to live your truth now. The lies are just obstacles. And I always tell people this difference between obstacles and walls. A wall is I'm black, I'm a man, can't change that. An obstacle is something that looks like you can't get over it, but you can. And the easiest way to get over an obstacle is if you can talk to somebody like yourself on the other side of that obstacle. They might teach you how
to navigate that obstacle. That's a whole nother story. Let's talk about the truth. In my career, when I found out that just being iced tea, just being me was all I needed to really do to be successful. When I started making music, just say what's on your mind. Just be honest to yourself, don't act like nothing, Just tell them how it is. Be honest. I can make hit records. I had to learn the skills necessary to make the music. But just being me when I start
acting and I'm like people just like me. When you listen to me on this podcast, it's just me talking. When I found out that that had a value, man, it's like I hit the jackpot. So being yourself will set you free. Let's not say the truth. Being yourself will set you free when you can honestly live a life where you're honestly just being yourself and people accept that, or you make people accept that, you will totally be free.
But when you have to live as somebody else, or in an image or in some other warth, you can't truly be free. It'll stagnate your life. You're now living double lives. So get over the lies, fuck the bullshit that these obstacles they've put in your way, and then learn to be true to yourself and you can absolutely be free. And some of us are that no holds bar love us, a hate us, but this is who we are, and we found out that that's true freedom. This has been another ice cold fact from me iced Tea.
Listening again tomorrow when I drop some wisdom on your ass till then, stay safe, stay smart, and stay knowing that. Sure, it's easy to say the truth will set you free, but until you're actually living your true life, you're never actually gonna be free. Icey's Daily Game.
