the one to gossip, but we're gonna talk about the gospel. My name
4:44
is Blossomed Rogers, grateful, recovering attic, mother of three grown sons,
4:50
thirteen grand babies and three great grand thirteen thirteen, And I had all suns.
5:01
You know what I'm saying, all suns so that you know now that
5:08
I think about it, being a great grandmother, it's truly a blessing because
5:14
some of my friends didn't get to see their kids grow up, so I
5:16
thank God they chose me. I've been listening to CCMBB wying millions didn't make
5:25
it, but I'm one of the ones who did. You know, so
5:28
I it got all the glory in the honor. Like you said, June
5:32
the fourth, God's will. I have twenty years clean, no crack,
5:39
no alcohol, not perfect by such perfect God. I tell people if we
5:46
could, if you want to stay clean and sober, you can do that,
5:50
but you can't do it by yourself. I need God, you know
5:55
what I'm saying. I need because there's different avenues to getting clean and sober.
5:59
Mine was I don't know in a a but mine was going to church.
6:03
So that's what we stick grounded. Uh, proud author of four books
6:10
from under Bridge one from under Bridge two and they laughed. And when they
6:15
laughed, and God bless it. My documentary came out November. Back in
6:19
November. We just found out last month that we've been nominated for Best Documentary
6:26
of the Year. So I thank God just being nominated. You understand,
6:29
said I want to win, but you know, I ain't gonna act,
6:34
but I do want to win. So grat you, ma'am, and I
6:41
pray to God that you're doing. But I know, girl, I know
6:45
nomination is good, but that winning is like the icing on the cake.
6:49
So I think, you know what years ago people used to hate to see
6:54
me coming. Now God bless it, it's on My life is on the
6:57
screen. So uh, it's just truly, truly, truly a blessing.
7:02
You know, my team, God bless me with a great team that believed
7:08
in me. Do believe in me, Tamarow Coleman And there, like I
7:14
said, you know, they just just you know, started out being on
7:18
her show. Then the next thing she wanted to do me put me in
7:24
her magazine. Then the next day she said, Blossom, I would be
7:26
honored if you allow me to do your documentary. So went to Atlanta.
7:30
We shot it over the weekend. And you know, God is just good.
7:36
You know who was twenty years almost twenty years ago when I was out
7:41
there on drugs. And I tell people, it's always a route to why
7:45
we get high. You know, I didn't grow up saying I wanted to
7:47
be a cracky head, But it's always a route to why we get high.
7:53
And mine was being molested. You know, when I was coming up,
7:55
we couldn't talk about that kind of stuff. We have just no Mmm,
8:00
you got you got your whole head split in m M. So what
8:03
happens in this house? Stay in this house? Was that it? Yeah?
8:07
And when we're just a shick as our secret and so, like I
8:13
said, talking about that, talking about how I got pregnant at an early
8:16
age, how I got married at an early age, how I got was
8:20
a guy who was already on cracks. And I don't know why we think
8:24
we could change somebody else where. We can't change ourselves. Oh oh did
8:30
she did she just drop that? Big boy? Yeah? I was more
8:33
specting the nuggets to come out so early. You know what we can't,
8:37
you know what I'm saying. And then when we started beating me and taking
8:39
my money, I said, well, if I can't beat my mind,
8:41
as well join them. So I started smoking crack because going through molestation,
8:46
I didn't know where I fit in. I didn't know where I fit at.
8:50
It messes with you mentally, you know what I'm saying. Uh,
8:56
I had became a people pleaser because I want everybody to like me because of
9:00
what I went through, because I was told that was my fault, you
9:03
know. But for anybody who's listening, we were children and when I was
9:07
coming up, you whatever grown up to do, you did it. We
9:13
We couldn't talk back, no Lord, So I can tell im. So
9:20
like I tell people Book number two, I talk about how I been in
9:22
prison. My prison number is fifty eight nine or nine thirty one. I
9:26
had that number for the rest of my life. It's just it's not a
9:28
functional number. I talked about how I was with the guy who was HIV
9:33
positive. Never told me. We never had safe sex. But I'm sitting
9:37
here today, don't have age, don't have HIV, and almost twenty years
9:39
clean. You have a lot of people that say your immune system was so
9:45
strong. Now we wasn't no science. That was the blood of Jesus that
9:48
covered me. Yeah. And I talked about how I lost my brother while
9:52
I was in prison. I talk about how I had a guy to leave
9:56
me for another guy. So, you know, you have all these issues,
10:01
but we can overcome our issue, you know what I'm saying. And
10:05
this brother was fine as I don't know, but he still left me.
10:09
Well, he had a problem too, you know what I'm saying. Hurt
10:13
hurt people, hurt people, a lot of people. How can you talk
10:18
about it so freely? It's because of God. God. Yeah, God
10:22
taught me how to uh to forgiveness, y'all. It's not for them,
10:28
it's for us, you know what I'm saying. So I forgive my abuser
10:31
because God had to forgive me for a lot of stuff. Just going back
10:37
and forth to treating facilities, rehabs, mental hospitals, over and over and
10:45
over and over again. I was getting tired of being sick and tired.
10:48
I had gotten to the church and I backslid. So as you know,
10:54
once you know, once we go back, it's seven times WORSEO God,
11:00
y'all, I can't. I can't take no credit because let me tell you
11:03
one thing. I liked it getting high. I liked it everything, but
11:05
I just didn't like the consequences that came with it. You know what I'm
11:09
saying, Well, you huh you like getting high? Yeah? Because at
11:16
first it was a uh fun, then it became a habit. Then it
11:22
became a job because you got to get out there and get it. Nobody's
11:24
not gonna give me nothing, you know what I'm saying. Me, I'm
11:26
still a hustler, but I hustled for God, now, you know what
11:31
I'm saying. So I'm not finish shit up here and saying, oh I
11:35
did not like to get Listen, I'm from Florida. Our stuff came off
11:39
the boat, so I don't know what kind of the other people had,
11:41
but I had some good dough. But that the consequences. That meant that
11:45
I was an unfit mother. That meant that I was a crackhead. That
11:48
meant that I was an alcoholic, That meant that I was a prostitute.
11:52
So them are the consequences anything we say. Dude, you got consequences,
11:58
you know, what I'm saying. When I got high, it helped me
12:01
forget about all the pain, but I was also causing pain. You know,
12:05
understand if you can grab that in the spirit, Yes, yes,
12:09
yes, that makes plenty of sense. And it's something else you said.
12:13
It means. It means, it made something that was said to me previously
12:20
and where I hear people say it to teens all the time. They said
12:24
is no one works harder than a crackhead, And I thought, hell whatever,
12:30
But what you just said that it means so much. Let me tell
12:33
you one thing. Anybody that's on drugs, we are some very creative people.
12:39
Because we first got to make sure I dope. RTE got to make
12:43
sure the police amber house, we got to make sure nobody don't steal like
12:46
our crack or our lighters. You got to always. That's why you see
12:50
them moving. So because we always, our minds are always. I gotta
12:54
make it to the next step. Got to make it to the next step.
12:56
So now that's what I do. Now make it to the next yeap
13:01
going in people with inboxes? Can I come on your show and tell my
13:03
story? Don't never stop my hustling, because if I were, if I
13:07
hustle for the enemy. I can hustle for God. You understand. Yeah,
13:13
seeing that, I hope plenty of authors are understanding that the book is
13:18
not going to that's the same house. It's not going to promote yourself.
13:22
It's not going to talk about itself. You gotta you gotta got it.
13:26
You gotta get out there and get it. You got to. You got
13:30
to a lot of people ask me, do I have a PR person or
13:35
a manager? No, I'm still a hustle the same way I knocked on
13:39
the dopeboard doors at night. Hey can I do this for a hitocrack?
13:43
It's the same if you had to do with y'all. Can I come on
13:45
y'all show and tell my story? You know what I'm saying. That's how
13:48
God blessed me to get on past the cliffe old dollars show. I kept
13:50
going. I didn't stop when I was like this smoking dope. So I'm
13:54
not gonna stop now either. You could say, yeah, they either we're
13:56
gonna barbecue milldew one to two. So when God bless me, he opened
14:01
that door for me to go on past the couple of dollars show. God
14:03
allowed me to be myself because let me tell me thing, Your gifts will
14:07
make room for you, but your character will keep you in the room.
14:11
And when I when I was a little girl, I talked all the time,
14:15
all the time because I wanted to make people laugh, because I felt
14:18
if I may do laugh, that made me forget about what I was going
14:20
through. So I've always I was. I was a class clown. So
14:24
my teachers they would said, Blossom, you're talking too much. Have a
14:28
seat, you know, they don't want to see it more. But I
14:30
would just la lah lah la la lah lah lah. So that's what I'm
14:33
doing now, la lah lah lah la la lah. Each time I go
14:37
on a show, I enjoyed talking talking about what God has done, has
14:43
is and gonna do in my life. I'm a millionaire. Tell people y'all
14:46
better remember their name Blossom. Don't take it lightly, don't get better tiptoe
14:48
around me. But I'm gonna I want you know what I do, not
14:54
want to die and have not lived. If that makes sense to you that
14:58
I don't, I yeah, I want to leave my sons, my generation,
15:05
generation generation to come inheritance, not just money, but wisdom as well.
15:11
You know what I'm saying, yes, yes, so uh last year
15:16
March, I'm written from Florida. So that's where all my addiction happened.
15:20
And I went home where I was asked to come home because five other women
15:24
and myself we were put into the Black Museum in my hometown. So each
15:30
time my grandchildren, grands and grands and grants walking that museum, they gonna
15:35
see their grandmother on the wall, not no jail pitcher, but they're gonna
15:39
see me up there with a professional pseudo and my book leaving them. Yeah,
15:43
my grandmama smoked up and this is what she did with the rest of
15:46
her life. You know what I'm saying. So we got that we can't
15:48
sit around and just think that something gonna fallow in our lives. When we
15:52
whatever we do for the Lord, it shall last. I don't care for
15:56
nobody. Say. My books came out and two thousand and ten, two
16:00
thousand and ten, going to twenty eleven, then book three or four their
16:07
their name from under. When they laugh and they laugh, we got two
16:12
kinds of laughter, or they laughing with you all at you. You understand
16:15
I'm saying, Yes, ma'am, we got to be careful who were around
16:19
in this season. You know how you see somebody on the softball team,
16:26
they got their glove right, they they waiting to catch the ball. That's
16:30
the same thing when it comes to up. You got to be a position
16:32
if you want to catch that blessing. You can't be. You cannot be
16:36
wherever they're talking to. Sister flip flopping, sister knock knock, and you've
16:40
been missed the ball. So we get a position. Everybody is talking about
16:47
that. Now. I'm seeing so many people that are talking about your your
16:53
circle, like, don't let anybody infiltrate your circle. Be mindful who's in
16:59
your sir. I mean, even if it's only one or two people,
17:02
you have those in your circle. And that's why I'm so honored to be
17:06
with these ladies that I'm part of. Amen goodness, graver, a great
17:11
union, a great union because God has blessed me. Do several interviews with
17:15
the ladies, and I took my hat to y'all because it's not easy.
17:19
It's not even trying to make sure you keep up with the because God bless
17:23
right. You say, have my own podcast. So when you get a
17:26
visit, I mean a guest that don't want to speak, you'd be like,
17:29
oh lord, who you got to pull everything out so I know I
17:32
know what you're talking about and what y'all going through. But you gotta be
17:36
in position, y'all because the ball ain't gonna The ball ain't gonna come to
17:38
you. You have to go get that ball. Can you make that a
17:42
T shirt? Because I don't wear it? Yeah, I won't hear it.
17:48
About a couple of weeks ago telling authors, if you want to talk
17:51
about your book, does, no matter how long, what genre, whatever,
17:55
come on my show that one post. I have people in boss to
18:00
me, left to right and right. But then when you bring it to
18:03
them and you present it to them, they claim up or they don't show
18:08
up, and it's like what you're asking for? Yeah, I'm presenting the
18:15
table the food to say I need you to come eat with me. But
18:18
you know what, everybody can't handle the truth. You know, of course
18:23
people gonna talk about you. They especially when I talk about my sexual behavior
18:30
out there. Well, first of all, I don't let nobody just talk
18:34
to me any kind of way. When I'm telling my story, I look
18:37
at him, I say, now I'm say sanctified, But but I ain't
18:40
soft. Now, I don't get it twisted. Please don't get it twisted,
18:42
because God is still working with me. But my story is not for
18:47
me. My story is to be able to help. Then you know how
18:48
many men and women were molested and they could not talk about it. That's
18:53
why we got so much going on in the churches because people have not been
18:56
healed from what they would do to prove with through You got flip Flop over
19:02
here, who they had several men. But then you want to get mad
19:04
when that baby come in the door that just came from a script pot you
19:08
your listen alone, guests to come up like a short dress. Y'all want
19:14
we're gonna be accountable because we're supposed to be winning souls for the kingdom.
19:18
Yeah, you know. Then you got deacon Deacon Willie over there in the
19:22
deacon door line, and then that night his name wet Willie. You're on
19:26
the on the computers. We got to get, y'all. We got I'm
19:30
not saying I'm perfect. God knows I'm not. I still still because and
19:37
then and you want to send the people with these nose up high and everything
19:42
a baby. I don't. I don't. I used to do the thing.
19:45
But what did you do to tell these people? Let them know what
19:48
your testimony is about. You weren't ashamed when you was out there, so
19:52
we can't be ashamed now, you understand me. So that's why a lot
19:56
of people don't want to write books, because you're gonna be talked about when
20:00
they talked about whom was out there? You know what I'm saying. So
20:04
she used to tell us if they if you stopped it, they stopped talking
20:07
about you. You have played out so well, yes, like anywhere to
20:11
go there on top about you? So my aunt used to say, and
20:15
back to the circle part, me tell you about Jesus. Jesus was annoying
20:18
Jesus. He was the only one could have went through that because let me
20:23
tell you what the first time they hit me, I'm gonna you want to
20:27
know where she had should be. I'm gonna tell on everybody. Do you
20:30
understand saying when they said at the table, he knows he knew what he
20:37
knew what Judis was fould do, but he's still watching me out snatched every
20:41
toe off his foot, you understand it? Not all the tools, all
20:45
the tools when he did walk out there, that told me. Do you
20:55
know that that's true? I think God put the right people in some situations
20:59
because you know, no, no, everything truth. We're trying to get
21:04
her in the kingdom. We do this, We're gonna push her out.
21:07
We can't put her. Let's go get this person. His toe would have
21:10
been just like that when he got them thirty pictures of silver. You understand
21:14
he had to take that Sybil and go take foot doctor messing around with me,
21:19
and I knew this was going to be the shore that night. I
21:22
knew, I knew, I knew what. And you sitting there eating break
21:26
boy go but boy bye baby. We gotta talk about your documentary before.
21:37
Oh yeah, so you went to Atlanta to film your documentary? Yeah,
21:45
how did that feel like? You know what? I got in Atlanta and
21:52
checked in. God bless us, you know what. We worked on it
21:56
for a year because I had to get old picture and stuff like that.
22:02
And one thing I like about this team. When she said was gonna have
22:04
a meeting, we had the meeting if something came up. She let us
22:08
know ahead of time that I like to be around people that are doing something.
22:12
Even when I was smoking dope, I did not like to be around
22:15
people talking about I'm fit to go, gets to hit you still sitting there,
22:18
you ain't got to hit yet. So that's that's what I like.
22:23
People that's making something happen. It's not gonna fall in your lap. So
22:27
we went and we shot the hotel where we was at. It was next
22:33
to the bridge. When we went up under was next to six Flags.
22:37
So back up under that bridge and doing an interview, it just it just
22:45
I was stumped, you know what I'm saying. I said, But she,
22:48
you know, she asked me. She said, Blossom, what's the
22:49
difference. I said, I got somebody I can touch because my neighbors was
22:53
dugs. You know what I'm saying. I was in the fleeing on a
22:57
bridge in a park and and it was a big area because people used to
23:07
come out there and fish. Twenty four seven. I never got bothered with
23:11
okay, never got in trouble. Nobody ever tried to rape me, nothing
23:15
like that. I would get out the front seat, get in the back
23:17
seat, and God kept myself so peacefully, I mean peacefully. I didn't
23:22
get in trouble till I got the front seat and went to the west side.
23:23
That's when I got in trouble to stay. The people, places and
23:29
things I had to stay away from, you know, so God bless it.
23:32
We shot the documentary within that weekend. I got back on the road,
23:38
headed back to Alabama, and I'm gonna let people know we're still gonna
23:41
have life issues. Okay. When I moved to Alabama, I was married.
23:47
This is my ex husband's hometown. We got a divorce to do the
23:49
love and people say love. Yeah, he loved, he loved talking to
23:52
other women. Brought the woman in my home. So I had to cry
23:55
out to the Lord because I had the most Caesared Saints telling me I should
24:00
stay here, and I had they used to really hanging out with Miss Helen
24:07
all these years, and you had the house making she No. I just
24:14
couldn't do it, and I told him, I said that y'all can stay
24:17
with y'all, but I'm not gonna stay. You have brought it in my
24:19
house. My mind had then went back to the old blossom. I said,
24:23
oh, no, no, no, if I set the house on
24:26
fire with me in it, I didn't care about setting the house on fire
24:29
with you. I was thinking about setting home fire, cutting him and get
24:33
on somebody's baby tricycle and get back to Florida. That's what the old blossoms.
24:37
Hold up? Hold up? Did you say the baby tricycle? When
24:41
I got to Florida, my feet woulda been looking like Judas. You know
24:52
what I'm telling you. Baby. They used to You know how people look
25:00
at the blind and said, oh, here come married bull. They used
25:04
to look got the blessed, said here come blossom. They said, oh,
25:07
they picked up their whole house of a movie. Because I was a
25:11
fighter, and you know, I fought men, I thought women, but
25:15
you know what, in reality, I was fighting myself. I was fighting
25:18
myself. And that's what keeps a lot of people out there in the streets
25:22
because they doing it to themselves. We don't have to have nobody mistreated because
25:26
we do it our own self. We feel like we deserved that. So
25:30
we got the divorce and God has told me to stay. First time buying
25:36
a home, I lost that in the foreclosure. But I didn't go back
25:38
to get in high brand new coll repot. But I didn't go back.
25:42
So long as I don't go back, we're doing just fine. So God
25:45
bless her now with a documentary out just gotta found out last month that we've
25:51
been nominated for Best Documentary of the Year. We find out June the twenty
25:56
second, and the event is gonna be in Newport, Virginia. So being
26:03
honored is truly a blessing, truly a blessing. So like I said,
26:08
uh, and this is my kids will be and my kids and my kids
26:11
and my kids. My kids would be all able to see this when I'm
26:15
dead and gone. You know what I'm saying, What when when you leave,
26:18
ten years after you're gone, what can they say about you? That's
26:22
a question for the life. That is a great question. What ten years
26:26
from now or ten years after you pass, what can they say? Were
26:30
they glad to see you or glad that you was leaving? You know?
26:33
That's that's the kind of stuff. And we need to do a soul search.
26:37
And God changed me because I can't change myself. So for anybody who's
26:41
out there that got a member that's on drugs, somebody that's delivering in a
26:45
homosexual lifestyle, we don't hate them. You're supposed to hate the sin,
26:49
but you can sometimes you can love the hell out of somebody. I don't
26:52
care how much the hell they got out, but you show them love and
26:57
win. It wins so much. You know what I'm saying. We can't
27:00
judge nobody because none of us are perfect. So I want to say anybody
27:06
who went through that, you remember we were the children. We didn't have
27:10
a say something, so we got to start. I tell everybody I had
27:14
a bridge that I was up under. You got a bridge. We all
27:17
got a bridge. So coming up front of your bridge, walk over the
27:21
bridge to your destiny. Don't sit there twill in your thumb talking about I
27:25
wish I could have should have. You know how many people died with dream
27:29
with dreams and songs and books because they were scared to what people are gonna
27:33
say. They're gonna talk about it. Long as nobody put their hands on
27:37
me, We're doing just fine. I'm not used. They gonna hurt you,
27:41
lick your wound, carry on, because the same people, when God
27:48
Uh prepare a table, they gonna wish they had a neck bone something from
27:52
that table because they every and everybody can't go where you're going. We have
27:59
to remember that everybody can't go. I'm still stuck back there where you said
28:04
that we all are under the bridge, that we need to get from under
28:08
the bridge, walk over the bridge to our destiny. You need to put
28:12
that on a T shirt because that is so do you know? Do you
28:18
know you are helping people come from up under the bridge when they come on
28:23
your show. You understand me. You are helping people when you're getting your
28:27
books together to come from up under your up on the bridge. You're what
28:32
and what's good for you is because you're able to see how you help somebody.
28:37
Sometime we think we're not doing nothing, all right the inn man?
28:41
Have you think girls? Sit down someone? You know when I was coming
28:44
up, we had was having a house party, and I used to cry
28:48
so bad because they started calling me bubblelif baby, bubble lilt. I wanted
28:52
the lift operation at eleven years old. Look at them now they're going to
28:56
get the lift blowed up. I ain't gotta do none of that, okay,
28:59
Look that is it's tucking on things get bigger, like what I used
29:04
to have dreads down to my thighs because they represented I had him for fifteen
29:10
years. Now I deal with a girl called alopecia baby. I keep her
29:14
shaved and all put my lipstick on eyebrows and carry on, you've got to
29:18
encourage yourself. If you don't, if nobody gonna come to hide and said,
29:23
girl, you're doing a good job. So for anybody that's out there
29:26
listening tonight or gonna listen later on, come from up under your bridge,
29:30
come from up under there and and let God use you, because y'all we're
29:34
gonna be accountable because we are not winning souls for the King like we're supposed
29:40
to be doing. And that takes telling your story. Tell your story.
29:44
Come from under your bridge, walk over your bridge to your destiny, you
29:49
know what. So you got to tell us how we can follow you and
29:53
if you know what, we can look at that documentary. Oh, I
29:57
would keep you postable by it's something in the works now that it'll be.
30:02
But I can't see nothing. I can't it's gotta be. I can't.
30:06

30:11
teens. Got God did it that part. But you can follow me on
30:19

30:33
you everything about the book because you're gonna have to go get the book.
30:36
You can find that on Amazon and Barnes and Noble. But like I said,
30:40

30:44
God got so much in store for us. But we gotta go out.
30:47
We gotta get out there and get it. Here you go, y'all.
30:52
You heard what she says. I am standing on your underbridge. Get
30:56
from my neck, walk over to your destiny. Yeah, it's a purpose.
31:00
It's a purpose. It's and notice that it's a work. So you
31:06
have to do the work. It won't come to you. You gotta take
31:08
those footsteps first. And God then did all he gonna do when he says
31:12
finished. When he said it's finished, he ain't got to do nothing else.
31:18
Everything waiting for you. You gotta walk here. You got to walk
31:21
there. Something of us are not going with a civilz school in my hand.
31:25
You understand me, So don't let nobody tell you what you can't do.
31:26
They told me I was gonna be a crackhead for the rest of my
31:30
life, and I believe them. But look at God, I'm sitting here
31:33
