YRN Lingo got a lot off his chest via his Instagram stories, and fans are pouring out their best wishes and support as he copes.

Takeoff's brother YRN Lingo just posted a series of messages on his Instagram Story, venting about his tragic loss. As he and the late Migo's family continue to heal, many expressed their support and best wishes after his messages. Moreover, Lingo referred to people being fake when posting their love towards Take, especially from within the industry. Regardless of the validity of their claims or statements, the 25-year-old expressed his own struggle to cope with his brother's absence. While his words are tough to read and even more difficult to imagine, hopefully his post helped him let some of that energy out.

"Damn take brother I'm crying rn," he began. Furthermore, he wrote some of these messages on a picture of the two of them together with another loved one. "I talk out loud cause I'm thinking you still here. But when I turn around and not see you I feel lost and sick to my stomach. I'm sitting next to your favorite chair rn. The one you smoke, eat and slept in. I never lost a close one like this before. A person I woke up to, spoke to everyday, ate with everyday! This s**t ain't fair."

Also, he switched to a black background to messages aimed more towards the Migos member's industry colleagues. "Getting sick of y'all n***as thinking y'all can say whatever to me. When this man was alive they all was on d**k. Now sine he gone they no where to be found sucka d**k ass n***as. All that fake crying s**t n***as be so flaw and lame it don't even make any sense. I don't have any brothers only brother I have is gone. And if you feel like I'm talking about you the shoe fit mf."

"Nobody has to worry about what's going on over here we straight!! And stop claiming y'all fw my brother! This man didn't even know half of y'all lame ass, peon ass n***as. LLT," concluding his messages with a rocket emoji. Moreover, as Takeoff's brother and family continues to reckon with his loss, their love and affection will keep his spirit alive.
