🐺 LONEWOLF — THE ONE MAN CREW
Leopold Ashley III
>THE BREATH OF A LONE WOLF
Every day I wake up…
I remind myself that breath is not guaranteed.
People around the world took their last physical breath today,
and I am still here.
That alone is enough for me to give the world everything I have left inside me.
Not because life has been easy.
Not because people have supported me.
Not because I had a crowd behind me cheering,
holding me up,
making the journey soft.
No.
I walk as a lone wolf because life carved me into one.
Fake friends sharpened my instincts.
Jealous family members forced me to build myself.
Haters lit the fire under my feet.
Pain became my trainer.
Isolation became my classroom.
Silence became my best teacher.
I didn’t choose to be a lone wolf —
but I choose to honor the wolf I became.
Every scar has a story.
Every setback has a lesson.
Every breath has a purpose.
And every sunrise is a chance to rewrite the ending.
This is my life.
My world.
My energy.
My evolution.
This is LoneWolf.
This is One Man Crew.
And this is the story —
the truth —
the message —
the legacy —
of a man who refused to break.
1 — THE WORLD TURNED COLD, SO I BECAME FIRE
You don’t become a lone wolf because you want to be alone.
You become one because the world teaches you that standing alone
is the only way to rise.
People switch up.
People disappear.
People pretend.
People get jealous.
People envy you for the very things they refuse to work for.
Most people break under the pressure of being misunderstood.
But I’m not most people.
I lived through more than I speak on.
I walked through storms I never posted about.
I smiled through days that should’ve crushed me.
I stayed consistent when I had every reason to quit.
I kept loving when people didn’t deserve the access.
I kept giving when people kept taking.
I kept rising when life tried to pull me down repeatedly.
The world turned cold —
so I became fire.
And when you become fire,
you stop begging people to stand with you.
You stop begging people to stay.
You stop explaining yourself.
You stop defending your dreams.
You stop proving your worth.
You stop chasing validation.
You stop running behind people who don’t respect your energy.
Because a man who builds himself
needs nothing from someone who only takes.
I created my own heat.
My own path.
My own rhythm.
My own heartbeat in this universe.
I created LoneWolf Energy
because I learned to survive off my own flame.
2 — I WALK ALONE, BUT I WALK WITH PURPOSE
Walking alone is not punishment —
it’s clarity.
It’s alignment.
It’s evolution.
When you are meant for more,
life strips away everything that distracts you.
Not to isolate you —
but to elevate you.
A lone wolf doesn’t follow the pack.
He leads his own trail.
He knows that solitude is where the blueprint lives.
He knows that silence is where the breakthroughs happen.
He knows that discipline is the friend that never switches up.
He knows that consistency is the language of greatness.
That’s why I walk alone.
Not because I lack love —
but because I finally learned what love is.
Not because I hate people —
but because I learned what people can do.
Not because I’m bitter —
but because I’m becoming better.
Every day I wake up,
I remind myself:
“My purpose is bigger than the people who walked out.”
“My vision is bigger than the people who doubted.”
“My mission is bigger than the people who hated.”
“My journey is bigger than the small minds around me.”
I walk alone because my path requires someone
who can withstand pressure,
carry weight,
adapt to change,
and stay grounded through storms.
Lone wolves survive because they are built different.
Lone wolves rise because they are driven different.
Lone wolves lead because they don’t wait for permission.
And I am that lone wolf.
Not broken,
not lost,
not weak —
but focused.
3 — SELF-LOVE SAVED MY LIFE
Let me be honest…
The world would have crushed me
if I didn’t learn to love myself in private.
Self-love is not candles and affirmations.
It’s discipline.
It’s boundaries.
It’s telling yourself “You deserve better”
and having the courage to walk away.
It’s letting go of people you love
because you love yourself more.
It’s choosing peace over attention.
It’s choosing healing over history.
It’s choosing strength over sympathy.
Self-love is when you stop waiting
for someone to save you
and you save yourself.
Self-love is waking up and saying:
“I will give my all today, even if it’s just 1% more.”
Self-love is showing up
even when you don’t feel seen.
Self-love is pushing forward
even when you're tired.
Self-love is honoring your breath
even when life feels heavy.
And for me,
self-love became survival.
It taught me to forgive myself
for staying where I didn’t belong.
It taught me to let go
of the weight that wasn’t mine.
It taught me to rebuild
when I felt empty.
It taught me to rise
when no one was clapping.
It taught me to rest
without quitting.
It taught me to love myself
even when others didn’t.
Self-love is the foundation
of my LoneWolf energy.
And it continues to save me.
Every. Single. Day.
4 — HEALTH & FITNESS: THE TEMPLE THAT CARRIED ME
I didn’t choose fitness.
Fitness chose me.
The gym became the one place
that never lied, never quit, never switched up.
Weights don’t judge you.
The treadmill doesn’t gossip.
The barbell doesn’t envy.
The gym doesn’t compare you to others.
It’s just you and the grind.
It’s just you and the discipline.
It’s just you and the pain.
It’s just you and the progress.
It’s just you and the mirror —
the real mirror —
the one that never sugarcoats anything.
The gym became my therapy.
My sanctuary.
My battlefield.
My home.
My training ground.
My reset button.
My proof that I can push through anything.
When life hit me hard,
I hit the gym harder.
When my heart broke,
my muscles grew.
When I felt alone,
I added more weight.
When I felt misunderstood,
I ran another mile.
When people walked out,
I walked into the gym
with more purpose than before.
Fitness taught me this:
“Pain is temporary.
Discipline is forever.”
Fitness built my body,
but it also built my soul.
It formed my habits.
It sharpened my mind.
It tightened my circle.
It strengthened my spirit.
Health and fitness didn’t just save my life —
they shaped it.
5 — ART, MUSIC, & VISION — THE LANGUAGE OF MY SOUL
There are things inside me
that can’t be spoken in normal conversation.
Pain has a sound.
Healing has a rhythm.
Growth has a tone.
Vision has a frequency.
Art allowed me to breathe.
Music allowed me to express.
Creativity allowed me to release.
Vision allowed me to move forward.
Some people break and fade.
I broke and transformed.
I evolved through creativity.
Every sketch, every lyric, every idea
became a piece of my spirit.
My art is not for approval.
My music is not for validation.
My vision is not for acceptance.
It is for survival.
It is for evolution.
It is for the future version of me
who refuses to quit.
Art is my therapy.
Music is my honesty.
Vision is my compass.
Purpose is my engine.
And this LoneWolf journey
is built from all of it.
6 — ONE MAN CREW — THE IDENTITY I DIDN’T ASK FOR BUT LEARNED TO HONOR
I didn’t wake up one day and say:
“I want to be a one man crew.”
Life forced me into that position.
People betrayed.
People lied.
People disappeared.
People used me.
People doubted me.
People talked behind my back.
People wanted me small.
Life said:
“Stand alone.”
And standing alone taught me everything:
• How to focus
• How to be self-reliant
• How to move with intention
• How to sharpen my instincts
• How to trust my energy
• How to build from nothing
• How to depend on myself
• How to stay solid regardless of who switched up
Being a one man crew is not a weakness —
it is a blessing.
Because when you learn to build alone,
you learn that nobody can ever take the foundation from you again.
I became the builder.
The designer.
The thinker.
The creator.
The motivator.
The artist.
The athlete.
The healer.
The coach.
The captain of my own mission.
And I wouldn’t change any of it.
7 — I DON’T CHASE ANYTHING ANYMORE — I ATTRACT EVERYTHING
At this point in my life,
I refuse to chase situations,
people, opportunities, or recognition.
Chasing drains you.
Chasing weakens you.
Chasing throws you off your path.
Chasing blocks your blessings.
Instead, I focus on becoming.
Because when you become:
🔥 more disciplined
🔥 more focused
🔥 more grounded
🔥 more healed
🔥 more aligned
🔥 more confident
🔥 more spiritual
🔥 more intentional
You stop chasing —
and everything begins to gravitate toward you.
People chase what glows.
People chase what’s rare.
People chase what’s strong.
People chase what’s different.
I became someone worth attracting.
Not through ego,
but through effort.
Every day I give it my all —
even if it’s just a little bit more than yesterday.
That 1% adds up.
That 1% multiplies.
That 1% becomes greatness.
Consistency is my love language.
Purpose is my backbone.
Faith is my engine.
Self-growth is my mission.
And attracting —
not chasing —
is my lifestyle.
8 — THE LONEWOLF MESSAGE TO THE WORLD
If you're reading this,
understand something:
You are stronger than the people who left.
You are bigger than the hate you received.
You are better than the obstacles placed in your way.
You are more powerful than the situations that tried to break you.
You are more blessed than you realize.
You don’t wake up every day by accident.
Life is not done with you.
Your story is not finished.
Your journey is still unfolding.
Your purpose is still calling.
You just have to answer.
Be the lone wolf if you must.
Stand alone if you must.
Walk alone if you must.
Build alone if you must.
Because when your success arrives —
and it will —
people will pretend they were with you the whole time.
But you will know…
You built it with your own breath,
your own discipline,
your own sacrifice,
your own energy,
your own heart.
You did it.
Alone.
And you survived.
9 — CLOSING: THE RISE OF THE ONE MAN CREW
This is my life.
My evolution.
My identity.
My truth.
I am a lone wolf
not because I lack people
but because I value purpose.
I am a one man crew
not because life was unfair
but because life was preparing me
for a mission that requires strength
most people don’t have.
I am blessed.
I am driven.
I am focused.
I am consistent.
I am alive.
And I will use every breath
to transform my future.
This is the poem.

The energy.
The lifestyle.
