“Not everyone who compliments you has good intention. They compliment so you let down your guard, so they can stab you after.”
As soon as u vex Caribbean ppl all truth does come out from every crevice.
“Dats why your man had to leave you for the pastor.”
“ dats why your daughter taking big man in couweh.”
“Dats why wife had to go and look for real loving by the minister”
🗣Whoooooy
"Oh I almost bought that for you"
"I was going to do that for you"
"I thought about bringing you"

Jesus be a fortress.
Take 2 bay leaf, boil it for 17 minutes in a small pot, add a little dirt from Jesus left sandal and the 6 strands from a Rasta beard and wash your front step with it at midnight on a Sunday
