A code is a unique system of signals or symbols which aid communication in a particular environment
Just like language, code is also a form of identity to a particular place or people. Every country and people has their unique language for which they are known and with which they communicate and operate easily among themselves
The language of the street is in codes; street codes. This is a reality that a lot of people shy away from, especially some people that see themselves as the elites
Some people believe that the streets and the street codes are meant for the poor and the less privileged, they believe that the streets are meant for the "never do wells" so they neither associate with the streets nor allow their children be part of the streets
There are lots of benefits one can get from the streets; if you know the streets codes, no one can cheat or intimidate you because every street has unique codes and if you don't know the codes, you'll be a stranger even in your own street where you live
Now, I'm sure a some people are still trying to wrap their heads around what I'm saying,
The truth is, no matter how rich or educated you claim to be, if you don't identify with the streets, there are certain rights and privileges that you can never get from the neighborhood
Some people keep their children away from the streets saying that they don't want them to mingle with other children on the streets and get corrupt. I laugh at such naive mentality
If you keep your children away from your streets you're causing them more harm because you'll end up raising naive children and cowards who can never stand shoulders high with their peers
They can read all the books in the world and speak all the grammar in the dictionary, if they're not street wise, they know nothing!
Expose your children to their environment and to the world, let them have a normal childhood like every other children, allow them to know "what's up"
At this point, if you still don't understand where I'm headed, then you don't know the streets codes and you need help. Hahahaha
I'm going to be dropping some streets codes here, check out my subsequent codes on "streets codes"...
or now, it's bye
