Last night, Lil Wayne’s Miami Beach home was raided by local police, and millions of dollars worth of artwork and plaques were taken to satisfy a $2 million judgement against him he’d yet to pay. The judgement came down in September, stemming from a lawsuit from The Signature Group, who claimed Wayne did not finish paying his 3-year contract with them for leasing their private jets.
Wayne was in Los Angeles at the time, and later took to Twitter with a few somber words on the matter.

“It’s days like 2day dat make me ? everything,even myself But I guess dis is da thx I get. Sum times it’s tough 2b tough & even tougher 2b me. I ain’t shit but my mother, my kids & their mothers r EVERYTHING & dat I know, so on the days ? everything, I use dat as the answer 2 it all.”
If you need a translation: Situations like this make me question everything, even myself – despite the fact that I have a successful career. But I guess this is what happens when you have a career in the public eye. It’s not always easy to have thick skin, and it’s even harder to be Lil Wayne. I know I’m not the greatest guy, but I do know that my mother, my children and their mothers (Toya Wright, Sarah ViVan, Nivea and Lauren London) are everything. This is a fact. So on the days I’m really questioning life and what I’m doing, I just reflect on the fact that I have an amazing family, and that is all I need.
You’re welcome. Keep your head up, Tunechi!
