Papa: What's your least favorite thing about being a father?
Pastor Jackson: I have a fear that I won't be there for you when you need me. I never want to let you down, son.

And while I'm up here, I encourage you all to do what you love, even if everyone thinks you're crazy. You blaze your own trail and never let anyone tell you you can't do something. I know The Chi's gonna be with me wherever I go. And I'm planning on going all over the world.

Emmett: Don't you want to build your legacy in the city that raised you?
Kevin: Listen, I'm not trying to abandon Chicago. I just, I just want to see what's out there.
Emmett: The city is all we got. If we keep leaving it, it won't be no real niggas left.
Kevin: Yeah.
Emmett: Chicago is the shit, man.

Kevin: Might be moving to LA.
Papa: What's in LA?
Kevin: Might want to take this gaming thing to another level.
Jake: You should go.
Papa: Damn, Jake. What about his family? What about Maisha? What about us?
Jake: Man, we ain't going nowhere.

It's like our whole lives, man. We've been told we gotta be the provider, the protector, pipe layer. But I mean, sometimes it's just cool to support these women.... If you can't handle that right now, you better speak up or forever hold your peace.

If y'all don't get out of here before I decide that prom is the work of the devil and tell y'all you can't go ...

Pastor Jackson

Quincy: Hey, everyone, this is my fiancée, DeAndre. You're late.
DeAndre: My bad.
Quincy: Yeah, but you missed my toast.
DeAndre: You want to do it again when I get home?

Guy: This went from a trap house to a tranny house.
Fatima's friend: Bitch you wanna get slapped?
Jake: What's going on here?
Fatima: One of your little friends is being disrespectful.
Jake: This is not my friend. It's a customer. And if you can't respect my house with people in it, you can get the fuck out. Anyone else wanna talk? Cause y'all can leave too, don't come in here with that bullshit.

Imma stay out of trouble. Y'all have a good evening.

See, that's what society keeps telling us that we have to be. I mean, it's no wonder y'all trying to be everything for everybody. You think that's the only way to be a man.

1st Peter asks us to look into our hearts and find courage. What do you do when a lion prowls your village looking to eat your young? Do you feed them from your table? No. What do you do when a lion prowls your village, dripping with the blood of your neighbors? Do you let him sleep in your bed? Do you follow him blindly? Do you long to be like him, hoping that one day you two can be the king of your own jungle? If we are not vigilant, that lion will destroy everything we love. If we are not upright shepherds of our flock, that beast will not stop until all of our young are ripped out. If we don't cast that devil out of our city, he will devour us all. And I just pray that he doesn't come for your house next.
