Decent cOMMUNITY

If you know me, you probably know this song.
It’s the one that made people stop scrolling and say, “… I felt that.”

“They call L.A the city of angels.
What that make N.Y? The city of demons.”

That line came from real life.
New York is home but it’s also a battlefield. You see the best and worst of people every day, and sometimes, it’s all happening on the same block. The energy’s powerful, but it’s heavy. You learn to love it, even when it hurts you a little.

When I wrote City of Demons, I wasn’t trying to make a hit I was just being honest. About mental health, about growing up in a city that tests you, about surviving.
I wanted to remind people that even in a place full of chaos, there’s still heart. There’s still decency.

That’s where the idea of “The Decent Man” came from.
Because being decent in the middle of all this madness that’s strength.

This song opened doors, but it also started a conversation.
It made people talk about real things: why we love places that don’t always love us back, how we deal with pain, how we keep going when it feels like we’re surrounded by demons inside and out.

The Decent Man isn’t a superhero. He’s just someone trying to do right, one day at a time, in a city that makes it hard.

So if you’re here, reading this, welcome to the movement.
Welcome to The Decent Community.
You’re part of the reason I keep pushing.

Let’s make being decent the new wave.
Let’s make this city feel like love again.
