Speaker 6: when you take the feelings out of it, and you
Speaker 6: realize that the child is the most important part of
Speaker 6: the relationship because it's still a reallyship. Whether you're intimate
Speaker 6: or not. You can do magical things, magical things. And
Speaker 6: I think that me being a dad that I was

Speaker 6: Whereas though now and now that she's pregnant, I don't
Speaker 6: really call her and say certain things because I know

Speaker 3: I ain't mad at that on that very much because
Speaker 3: you don't know what she could have tried to do
Speaker 3: to you in that situation, so you gotta put everything
Speaker 3: on it.
Speaker 5: I was like, it was ghetto will be gotten, and
Speaker 5: that's what it was.
Speaker 3: So now when you hear this story and you say
Speaker 3: to yourself, why they there on National co Parent Day
Speaker 3: because they are like the best of friends. Now they
Speaker 3: call each other. Jeff called you her brother. How do
Speaker 3: you feel about that?
Speaker 1: How did y'all get there? Do you look at her
Speaker 1: like your sister? You said, mama, I was gonna.
Speaker 6: Say what she said, created that like my mother, Like
Speaker 6: when we are the town and she got like my mother.
Speaker 4: No, I ain't gonna disclose too much, but she thinks
Speaker 4: my mother. No.
Speaker 6: I just know she likes to control, like she know
Speaker 6: how I am though like me and alone. I think
Speaker 6: part of that controlling pause, like o'kay b be twenty
Speaker 6: of us.
Speaker 1: I don't want to be with child, So guess what
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do.
Speaker 5: He can go out of town with these twenty people
Speaker 5: and then be like all right.
Speaker 6: I'm like, no, we could be all on sprinting. What's
Speaker 6: going on now on sprint or whatever state we go to. Bro,
Speaker 6: I'm won't even gonna go with a rental or slingshot
Speaker 6: or something better not be raining.
Speaker 1: But I think that that.
Speaker 6: Controlling part comes in just because she cares, and sometimes
Speaker 6: especially when I'm under the influence, I've done dumbass ship.
Speaker 2: So as good as you know that you I don't
Speaker 2: know if you heard just assist in the back.
Speaker 6: Everybody like you know, everybody knows, but I hold myself
Speaker 6: accountable that mind you.
Speaker 4: Now, I ain't gonna say you I learned from Oneman six.
Speaker 4: I did the dumbas ship over and over again.
Speaker 6: But I think in that aspect, that's when the mother
Speaker 6: of the mother with the v coming but the brother
Speaker 6: calling me brother, and sisters were like, honestly without the
Speaker 6: child like.
Speaker 4: It it's there.
Speaker 6: It's it's seem like Amazon cameras off, like you can't
Speaker 6: fake this or make this ship up.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, Rome started that room started calling me sis first,
Speaker 5: and then I started calling him bro. I you know,
Speaker 5: I'm like, yeah, we do have like a sibling dynamic
Speaker 5: in some way. You know, he's still confides in my mom.
Speaker 5: He like, my mom is our mother. Like it's not
Speaker 5: it ain't nothing crazy, it's nothing intimate. Like seriously, I
Speaker 5: always say this, people be like, yeah, right, I can
Speaker 5: literally walk past and I don't do this. But what
Speaker 5: I'm saying, I can walk past this man nigked and
Speaker 5: he just they be like, girl, what like put that out?
Speaker 5: I'm talking about seriously, like how do y'all know.
Speaker 1: Each other's spouses or each other's boyfriend and girlfriend? Like
Speaker 1: how do you deal with his girl, And how do
Speaker 1: you deal with with.
Speaker 5: Five? I never told you always try.
Speaker 4: It's cool. Though it's cool, but this is this and
Speaker 4: now this was the friction part and we got over that.
Speaker 4: But this is the The friction part.
Speaker 6: Was mom my bendess, I'm getting hot ship, But the
Speaker 6: friction part was her getting into minds.
Speaker 4: But she's still a woman. I'm still a man. So
Speaker 4: women tend to do that. And this is not no
Speaker 4: shame to women.
Speaker 6: I don't mean no disrespect by saying it, but I
Speaker 6: think women tend to do that, especially a woman.
Speaker 2: That care about you, she said, But sometimes you make
Speaker 2: bad decisions and she's there as your sister to make
Speaker 2: sure you're good, regardless if it's relationship or whatever.
Speaker 6: Correct with me personally, I never really like I talk
Speaker 6: to her about certain things, but I never really like
Speaker 6: my family to get into no intimate situation. Yeah, because
Speaker 6: guess what, y'all feel a way about this person. However
Speaker 6: y'all want, whether it's negative or good. If I'm gonna
Speaker 6: deal with this person, I'm gonna deal with her like
Speaker 6: the female can smack shit out me yesterday.
Speaker 4: Mm hmmm, I might get over it and fucking them all.
Speaker 6: But it's like, that's why I always That's how I
Speaker 6: was always able to distinguish the two, Like when Jessica
Speaker 6: would have men when she come to me, like, I
Speaker 6: don't know, like, I ain't never pillow talking or sneak
Speaker 6: dish or nothing like I don't really care for Like,
Speaker 6: it ain't nothing a nigga have that I don't if you.
Speaker 1: Put it in that sense. But when she come to
Speaker 1: me with a man, I tell her ain't right.
Speaker 3: But both of y'all gotta share, though, because you're gonna
Speaker 3: want to know who around your son.
Speaker 6: I never did though, Yeah, I never so in the
Speaker 6: beginning stage, Yeah, don't have this nigga my summer.
Speaker 1: But I grew out of that.
Speaker 6: So now it's I trust my child mom enough to
Speaker 6: she won't bring no fans sit around my child, So
Speaker 6: I don't say, oh, don't have this nigga round. That's
Speaker 6: never been a problem. It has been a problem. Was
Speaker 6: motherfucker's envy me. It's that for my last dog.
Speaker 1: Yeah, my dogs. Who's the dog my dog, Chris Chris Chris,
Speaker 1: my dog my dog. I ain't gonna hold he. I
Speaker 1: think he's the I think.
Speaker 6: Like me, honestly, me and jess Man like, I think
Speaker 6: it's been times where a woman didn't like me and
Speaker 6: her situation.
Speaker 5: But guess what, bye, yeah more so on and yeah,
Speaker 5: it'll be more so on his end because it's much
Speaker 5: more of them. But the thing is, the thing is,
Speaker 5: like I don't like when because I even tell him
Speaker 5: what he's going wrong to, like, yo, don't cheer her
Speaker 5: like that. This is how how how you going to
Speaker 5: introduce me to it?
Speaker 1: Now?
Speaker 5: Now I done got to know where, you know, and
Speaker 5: whether she had a kid or not. Most of the
Speaker 5: time it's the ones that have the kids. But it's like, yo,
Speaker 5: you gotta do right or just be single, Like, don't
Speaker 5: keep hurting women in the process of trying to find
Speaker 5: what you're looking for. I mean, I know that's all
Speaker 5: a part of dating, but when you have kids, it's different,
Speaker 5: you know. And then here be like, oh, that's why
Speaker 5: I don't like you to be getting into it, you know,
Speaker 5: And then I don't like he he attracts a lot
Speaker 5: of toxic women to like abusive relationships where women will
Speaker 5: put their hands on them. I'm like, what, yeah, all right,
Speaker 5: you know, but he don't. He's like no, but I
Speaker 5: might be fucking with it them all. What she just
Speaker 5: blacks your eye? What are you talking about? You know
Speaker 5: what I'm saying, Like, no, we're not doing it, but okay,
Speaker 5: well she busts your nose whatever. Women have put.
Speaker 6: Their hands on you, and that's why, and that's why
Speaker 6: she's my dog, Like I think she's the only one
Speaker 6: really honestly, do want to get the fuck under my skin?
Speaker 6: Like it's a certain word place she used and I
Speaker 6: don't care what tone she uses in, but to say that,
Speaker 6: it's like I was really never taught how to love,
Speaker 6: like from I lost my mom at ten years old.
Speaker 4: My heart, I'm moving my dad, and when I move
Speaker 4: with my dad, my dad didn't move my dad in
Speaker 4: my step mom, which is my mom. Now me and
Speaker 4: my mom have a great relationship. That's my step mom.
Speaker 6: And my dad was married. But my dad was cheating,
Speaker 6: like saying, like my dad, my dad showing me.
Speaker 4: Ship that all right, I'm thinking cool m hm.
Speaker 6: So like when even when I started dealing with women
Speaker 6: and stuff like that, multiple women and all that, my
Speaker 6: dad was like yeah, absolutely, And I'm thinking it's cool
Speaker 6: because that's that's that's what I'm saying. I'm being taught,
Speaker 6: like and every man in my life that I looked
Speaker 6: at as a role model me was the same way.
Speaker 4: So it's like what you expect.
Speaker 6: But the good thing is now it's like I'm old
Speaker 6: enough now in mind, I ain't perfect.
Speaker 1: Now I'm seeing it. I'm trying to, you know, change it.
Speaker 6: But I never was taught to love properly, so and
Speaker 6: I never my trust issues is fucked up from my dad, Like, bro,
Speaker 6: my trust is hues. I met her because I'm seeing
Speaker 6: what he's doing, but I'm saying when it's done to him,
Speaker 6: his reactions like damn, my nigga, you were just doing this.
Speaker 1: How you're gonna get married? Right?
Speaker 4: So it's like every relationship I've went into, I had
Speaker 4: an expiration date.
Speaker 5: Me.
Speaker 6: I put an X frame on myself. I say, she's
Speaker 6: gonna get she gonna get get what I'm getting.
Speaker 4: I'm gone, m hm. So I've never really gave a
Speaker 4: woman the what's the word I'm looking for. I never
Speaker 4: really gave a woman commitment, not even commitment, but I've
Speaker 4: never gave a.
Speaker 1: Woman a chance to really love me. But even with
Speaker 1: the kids, like even having kids, No, I haven't.
Speaker 6: And this is like I said, no distress to my children, moms.
Speaker 6: A lot of my my children came out of vulnerability.
Speaker 1: M found on that. And I'm explaining that, So I will.
Speaker 6: Meet a woman who I may feel like she's what
Speaker 6: I need, another safe place or whatever the case may be.
Speaker 6: But I'm already vulnerable from a previous relationship ship have
Speaker 6: a child, knowing I don't want to be with this woman.
Speaker 4: I don't want to. I don't I really don't want
Speaker 4: to be.
Speaker 1: With her, but I feel like I'm forced to be
Speaker 1: with her because of a child.
Speaker 4: Mhmm. And I've done that.
Speaker 3: You know multiple times you needed a therapist, not another baby, Mam.
Speaker 4: I need correct but at the time of need, at
Speaker 4: the time in vulnerability. You know women, you know.
Speaker 6: Women, women, can they be masked up?
Speaker 3: Yea.
Speaker 5: But then also you know, just on a accountability part
Speaker 5: which he has taken over his recent years, is like
Speaker 5: you was looking for like your mom and women, and
Speaker 5: you would never get that, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 5: because you was trying to look for an emotional connection
Speaker 5: with with you know, nurturing also and then like you
Speaker 5: was really really searched searching for Keisha. Keisha's his mother.
Speaker 5: You were really searching for her and women. You know,
Speaker 5: that's that's a different type of love, you know what
Speaker 5: I mean.
Speaker 4: I think different women always dealt with different women because
Speaker 4: different women had certain.
Speaker 1: What is it, certain things aspects of her aspects of it.
Speaker 6: But like I never knew how to be alone, bro,
Speaker 6: Like I would be single and my own apartment and
Speaker 6: all that and let it go and go move with
Speaker 6: a woman because I never knew. Really, I don't know
Speaker 6: how to I don't like being lonely like so it's
Speaker 6: like a lot of the times when I say this
Speaker 6: ship is real, like I don't know if a lot
Speaker 6: of other men like me. But when being lonely, bro,
Speaker 6: you go through so you don't get how much money
Speaker 6: you got. I don't cap out none of that. But
Speaker 6: like I never really knew how to be alone, Like
Speaker 6: I feel like I got to have somebody laying next
Speaker 6: to me.
Speaker 1: Because even before my mom died, my mom was sleep naked.
Speaker 6: This is a back then thing. How old were you
Speaker 6: with I was telling? But I was a mommy's boy.
Speaker 1: Did you ever did you ever really properly so grieving? No?
Speaker 4: I never really grieved.
Speaker 6: All I did was I thought it was gonna help
Speaker 6: me by going to school for social work because that's
Speaker 6: what she was. But I never really probably agrieved and
Speaker 6: that's a that's a process. Now I do want to get,
Speaker 6: you know, back in the gym. I do want to
Speaker 6: get a therapist, but don't want everything else around me
Speaker 6: to be in tact so that I could fully commit,
Speaker 6: because if I ain't fully committed, it ain't gonna work.
Speaker 1: And then as I.
Speaker 5: Also feel like your your dad didn't get you any
Speaker 5: tape dad.
Speaker 6: Honestly, I felt like me personally, and this is probably
Speaker 6: the first time I said this, Like I did. I
Speaker 6: think my father really wanted me for a check and
Speaker 6: exactly what I said, like the money and lied to
Speaker 6: me for so long.
Speaker 4: I lost a scholarship because of my dad. Oh because
Speaker 4: at the time where I wanted to go, I wanted
Speaker 4: to get away from.
Speaker 6: Them, so I had I had a couple of scholarships.
Speaker 6: I had like over thirty a septences.
Speaker 4: I got to accept it to a school in Florida.
Speaker 5: I think it did your mom leave you money or.
Speaker 4: Yeah my mom? Yeah my mom, So my mom left you.
Speaker 1: Maybe the government gave you a job my mom?
Speaker 4: My mom left money, my mom was getting money, and
Speaker 4: you know, social securities stuff.
Speaker 6: So it was like my dad was making bank like
Speaker 6: I did that case. I ain't even say the calculations.
Speaker 6: Calculations is crazy.
Speaker 4: What's your relationship with your dad?
Speaker 1: Now?
Speaker 4: We okay, you know we all right?
Speaker 6: He you know, he's still living with that regret, and
Speaker 6: I feel like that's why we can't really get there.
Speaker 1: But yeah, like I feel like my dad wanted me
Speaker 1: for a check man a scholarship.
Speaker 6: I lovet scholarship. I lost a scholarship because August, like
Speaker 6: TVC's full school was supposed to start. I had got it.
Speaker 6: I was leaving like my mom's side. He brought all
Speaker 6: my dorm stuff and all of that. All my life,
Speaker 6: my father always said, yeah, when you get eighteen, you're
Speaker 6: gonna have money. You can go get your car, you
Speaker 6: can go do what you want, you go to school,
Speaker 6: whatever the case may be.
Speaker 1: Alrighty cool, I get eighteen, I graduate. It's nothing there,
Speaker 1: I asked my father. I'm like, well, there's.
Speaker 6: Still no answer to My brother never even answered. So
Speaker 6: I know I got a scholarship. I had a partial scholarship.
Speaker 6: So a partial scholarship with the you paying the school
Speaker 6: and on and room and board that's at the school.
Speaker 1: I was going through.
Speaker 6: That was about sixteen, seventeen thousand semester. I had like
Speaker 6: a forty two thousand dollars partial joint.
Speaker 1: So my dad was always.
Speaker 4: Saying, all right, I got the rest. I got the rest.
Speaker 6: So two weeks before I was supposed to leave, so
Speaker 6: a month was supposed to be my family got all
Speaker 6: my doing stuff. A week before I was supposed to leave,
Speaker 6: my father called me.
Speaker 4: Up to the room and he like, I didn't even
Speaker 4: say what he said. I'm like, he like, you can't
Speaker 4: go to school. I'm like, why not, Like nigga, I'm
Speaker 4: an age.
Speaker 6: Student, like I work off for this. I was an athlete.
Speaker 6: I was a student. I ain't getting no office from
Speaker 6: basketball my junior senior year. So I gave up and said,
Speaker 6: fuck it, I'm gonna fall back on my grades. You
Speaker 6: always said I had the money. The money wasn't there.
Speaker 4: He spent it all.
Speaker 6: And you know, we turned eighteen, like seventeen and a half,
Speaker 6: it stopped coming. But even even if it come again
Speaker 6: when I'm eighteen, that's one check, all the rest gone.
Speaker 6: And my stepmother used to always tell him, my stup
Speaker 6: And I love my stepmother for this, and I wish
Speaker 6: I'd known this when I was younger. But my step
Speaker 6: mother used to always tell them put that money up,
Speaker 6: But she never came to me because she didn't want
Speaker 6: to overstep the boundaries of her husband.
Speaker 4: And I understood it.
Speaker 6: But now that I'm grown and we have conversations now,
Speaker 6: it's like I understood it because my father always tried
Speaker 6: to make.
Speaker 4: People hate me. I hated my step Yeah, I hated
Speaker 4: my step mother growing up, but it was never herd
Speaker 4: it was him.
Speaker 6: Lights sayn't get cut off. We had Christmases because of
Speaker 6: my stepmam. My dudes got paid my senior due. I'm
Speaker 6: talking my middle school dudes. My bro, you're getting money
Speaker 6: for me in my middle school dues my step mother
Speaker 6: paid them. My step mother and my teachers paid them. Wow,
Speaker 6: high school dues.
Speaker 4: My stepmother paid them.
Speaker 1: And my friends. I got two friends. Their mother's paid
Speaker 1: all that. So it was like my dad really crushed me.
Speaker 4: Man.
Speaker 6: I told my dad a couple of weeks ago. Man,
Speaker 6: I said, Bro, you hate me, not literally saying you
Speaker 6: hate me, but you hate me so much.
Speaker 4: Because I got you. I caught your ways.
Speaker 6: I said, what the difference between me, I'm young and
Speaker 6: I'm changing. I'm gonna change them. You're twenty years older
Speaker 6: than me, You're still doing.
Speaker 1: The same thing. You want to break those cycles.
Speaker 6: And I want to It's not even me breaking a cycle, rogers.
Speaker 6: I don't like being like this, Like I don't like
Speaker 6: hurting people. I don't like hurting women. I don't like
Speaker 6: I never really heard. I'm so loyal to my friends
Speaker 6: that any little disloyal thing they do to me, they
Speaker 6: cut off. So it's like the shit be hurting man,
Speaker 6: And it's like, damn, I already had nobody. So then
Speaker 6: when I got a child, mom, I cherish it. I
Speaker 6: tell horash the really ones you love, the really ones
Speaker 6: that's genuely there for you, the ones that you ain't
Speaker 6: got to do nothing for, And I really love you
Speaker 6: because guess what, at the end of the.
Speaker 4: Day, when shit goes, if shit go bad, they're gonna
Speaker 4: be the ones you can count on.
Speaker 3: You know, there's this thing when when you start going
Speaker 3: to therapy you'll hear about. It's this thing called the
Speaker 3: mother womb, and it's a type of attachment trauma that
Speaker 3: instills deeply rooted beliefs that make the child feel unloved, abandoned,
Speaker 3: unworthy of care and numb to their feelings that do that.
Speaker 4: You mass low loss, mas lole loss.
Speaker 1: It's done, yours.
Speaker 6: A child will affect you as an adult, but it
Speaker 6: will not define you, That's right. So it's like it's
Speaker 6: crazy because going to schools, like, man, you're reading this shit.
Speaker 6: I'm like, man, it's me, it's me, Like you know,
Speaker 6: I'm thinking of my own therapists. But you know, every
Speaker 6: therapist need a therapist, and that's how they that's how
Speaker 6: they're able to be effective. So it's like, man, like, no,
Speaker 6: I've been through I ain't have a bad upbringing, but
Speaker 6: I've been through some traumatic situations, man, and you know,
Speaker 6: like I ain't. They ain't gonna define me like them
Speaker 6: babies and mom. Man, I love them babies. I feel
Speaker 6: like if it weren't for my babies, i'd have crashed
Speaker 6: out long ago, long time ago.
Speaker 1: But that's what I said. I got them babies.
Speaker 6: And out of all my te I got, I got
Speaker 6: I got two children moms like that. My last one,
Speaker 6: you know, she she made no harm by certain things,
Speaker 6: but I got that one and I got this one
Speaker 6: to my left, man, my dog, and it's like she
Speaker 6: give me hope every day she don't even know it,
Speaker 6: like even when you know, we might not even argue,
Speaker 6: but like every days I wake.
Speaker 4: Up, she's doing all right? Are you feeling? Just because
Speaker 4: I know that she needed like.
Speaker 6: When you when you when you the the shoulders in
Speaker 6: the head of families or communities, bro, Like it's a lot,
Speaker 6: you know, Honestly, I think them people need it the most.
Speaker 4: So I give her her flowers every day, and I
Speaker 4: feel like man like without her.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you're on the right back, you know,
Speaker 3: they stay healing the mother when first starts with acknowledging
Speaker 3: the pain and then seeking professional help.
Speaker 1: What you want to do cultivating healthy relationships.
Speaker 3: What y'all have done, and you're focusing on self care
Speaker 3: personal growth, right, you're definitely on the right path.
Speaker 4: Just won't get that mass time, take time, you know,
Speaker 4: but it'll be there.
Speaker 3: How did y'all that's the most thing, the most I
Speaker 3: won't say most important, but one of the most important things.
Speaker 1: How did y'all realize we don't have feelings for each other?
Speaker 1: No more?
Speaker 3: Like?
Speaker 1: How did that just go away? Like y'all have y'all
Speaker 1: love each other, but not in that way.
Speaker 4: I got my answer you want to go first, you
Speaker 4: can go first.
Speaker 6: Because I'm still thinking when I stopped caring about who
Speaker 6: she dealt with, when I wouldn't even like I wouldn't
Speaker 6: even care, Like how long.
Speaker 1: Did that take?
Speaker 4: Oh? Oh three years?
Speaker 1: So like when Ashton was like three, yeah, it was
Speaker 1: still really yeah.
Speaker 6: It was like things but at that but honestly, that
Speaker 6: three years, like I had caught a big check. So
Speaker 6: it's like I was almost a nigga. So it was
Speaker 6: like it was the pain that I had. Whatever the
Speaker 6: case I would, I would pay. I was like just
Speaker 6: boy ship to block it out. But other than that, like.
Speaker 1: You ain't trying to stun on her a little bit?
Speaker 6: No, I never, no, I never, No, I'm waiting for that.
Speaker 6: I never intentionally stunted on her.
Speaker 4: I never did that.
Speaker 1: Never.
Speaker 4: I did everything she possibly could ask me to do.
Speaker 4: And she said on one of these souls something about
Speaker 4: a B G. E. Bill And I'm addressed that. I
Speaker 4: never wanted that. I'm addressed that now with the bill.
Speaker 1: So so I'm explaining her life got cut off.
Speaker 2: I got a five hundred thousand dollars checking Listen.
Speaker 6: No, it wasn't right then and there, but it's over time,
Speaker 6: because like a lot of my places helped me, she
Speaker 6: helped me get a lot on the back end, but
Speaker 6: in a time like I helped her.
Speaker 4: Whatever the case, I didn't.
Speaker 1: Know she's moving with a man.
Speaker 5: I didn't move with a man.
Speaker 6: Well she moved man in with her. Yeah, alright, okay,
Speaker 6: he had you and the dog too, now in my business,
Speaker 6: so I don't know that he's not there, so boom
Speaker 6: hiss his So he's here's my logic, and I'm ana
Speaker 6: say what I'm gonna say to her after I explain it.
Speaker 6: My logic was all right, man is in the house.
Speaker 6: Boom be eagy cut off, right, I'm thinking, like damn.
Speaker 1: So she like was wrong.
Speaker 6: I'm like, well, I take my son with me. But
Speaker 6: that wasn't me talking. That was the girlfriend I had talking.
Speaker 6: Oh ship, ain't I never told you that because as
Speaker 6: a woman, you ain't trying to hear that, and I
Speaker 6: just wants as a man and you be and me,
Speaker 6: I don't want to hear that. So I didn't want
Speaker 6: to tell you that because I have felt less of
Speaker 6: a man.
Speaker 4: So yeah, but I'm understand him.
Speaker 2: If somebody else is smacking the cheeks, listen.
Speaker 4: So the girlfriend was living in the house. So the
Speaker 4: girlfriend was.
Speaker 5: Like, don't talk about no house ahead.
Speaker 1: So the girlfriend was like, I took a certain amount
Speaker 1: of mon out the bank. I did.
Speaker 6: She was with me, She like, mind you the certain
Speaker 6: amount of money I had to call because I was
Speaker 6: gonna break it in half, give it to Jessica and

Speaker 4: And I was going, man ash man ask that's all
Speaker 4: I did, shot man ash.

Speaker 5: And she like, I never said that here.
Speaker 6: I never said the reason. I never said the reason. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 6: I never said the reason though.
Speaker 5: She was like, what ex that to do?
Speaker 1: She needs?
Speaker 6: Because I know you ain't giving her. No, she don't

Speaker 5: I'm like, you weren't even thinking that till she said it.
Speaker 1: I wasn't thinking that, but I'm drinking.
Speaker 6: But when she say it, because I'm not, like I said,
Speaker 6: bro like wives and girlfriends I've seen. I've seen I've
Speaker 6: seen men crumble and go against a family.
Speaker 4: Because of her wife or a girlfriend.
Speaker 1: I've seen it, and I'm like.
Speaker 4: Know what, You're right?

Speaker 6: should have. And I'm gonna take my glasses because for
Speaker 6: a long time, that ship hurt me.
Speaker 1: And it's like.
Speaker 6: I never ever ever, especially I never ever ever ever

Speaker 6: you're gonna come back. I ain't, you know, I hadne
Speaker 6: made that shit back when broke again, made it back
Speaker 6: broke again. But my biggest downfall of the comments denominated was
Speaker 6: alcohol and women. So that shit them two problems never
Speaker 6: allowed me to really reach my full potential. And even
Speaker 6: when I seen a couple of years ago, you've seen
Speaker 6: it twenty nineteen when I was single, when I went
Speaker 6: moved back by myself, I ran that motherfucker up.
Speaker 5: Flourish ran.
Speaker 6: That's one thing I know how that I'm running up,
Speaker 6: but women holding me back. Man, I'm sorry that I
Speaker 6: didn't do what I was supposed to do, and a
Speaker 6: lot of motherfuckers said what I was in your job?
Speaker 4: That one you done.
Speaker 1: I felt that was my duty, but because I had
Speaker 1: certain people in my in my.
Speaker 6: Ear that I thought had their best interest in me,
Speaker 6: but when the bag ran out, they left.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry. I'm not a sorry person.
Speaker 1: I apologize.
Speaker 5: I appreciate that, and but listen, I was not. I
Speaker 5: was talking to a nigga. He moved in months after.
Speaker 5: You think a nigga was gonna move into a dark house,
Speaker 5: You can't you think I wanted to a niggas see,
Speaker 5: I was living no. And when you said I asked you, like, yo,
Speaker 5: can you just get my my lights on? I'll pay
Speaker 5: you back. That's when I was scamming and doing all
Speaker 5: that shit. That shit got slow too, So I'm like,
Speaker 5: all right, you was like, no, I take my son.
Speaker 5: Nobody taking my kid, not even as far Like as
Speaker 5: long as ash was in stad of the dark, we
Speaker 5: was good, you know what I'm saying. Like I still
Speaker 5: had candles, we was playing, We was doing all that.
Speaker 5: We would stay outside until it went until it got dark,
Speaker 5: and then we would go in the house. And him
Speaker 5: he ain't never asked me why the lights ain't coming on.
Speaker 5: It don't matter. So as long as he was good,
Speaker 5: I was good. I just wanted to be able, you
Speaker 5: know what I'm saying, and just be like, yo.
Speaker 4: Get and you should have. Well guess what that made you?
Speaker 1: A demon?
Speaker 6: And when I say deeming, I said, in the best way,
Speaker 6: that turnt you up. And I to teach my kids,
Speaker 6: especially my oldest boy might love me, yo, bro, like
Speaker 6: I don't want you to go through something bad and
Speaker 6: learn a lesson. I don't think everybody should have to go
Speaker 6: through something bad and not a lesson.
Speaker 4: But in your case, I feel like, yeah, I put
Speaker 4: that battery in your back.
Speaker 6: You know, when that battery came in your back, it
Speaker 6: ain't treat me no way. It took still a minute
Speaker 6: for us to create that bond.
Speaker 1: But y'all have it now. And I think y'all bo
Speaker 1: should give each other some greades because.
Speaker 6: Y'all and I always was a hurt young man, so right,
Speaker 6: but I love the story.
Speaker 2: It shows the foundation and how now and how you
Speaker 2: treat each other now. You know, I don't know you,
Speaker 2: but the way she talks about you on the radio,
Speaker 2: and like you said, she is a mother, She protects you,
Speaker 2: she holds you down.
Speaker 4: I just love to see it. You know.
Speaker 1: Sometimes I'll be telling us stop talking about room like that.
Speaker 5: He always did, like why you be talking about But
Speaker 5: I get it.
Speaker 1: She don't mean no harm.
Speaker 6: But she don't, like I said, man like I wish
Speaker 6: a lot of other people but.
Speaker 1: Take from us.
Speaker 4: And that's why this ship got to be on TV.
Speaker 1: That's why y'are writing a book.
Speaker 4: Yeah, book coming, everything book coming, Yes, everything coming.
Speaker 3: I think the most important thing because I want you
Speaker 3: all to save a lot of this, but what's the
Speaker 3: most important thing. It takes the cold parent if y'all
Speaker 3: you're just leaving on that because the national co parent
Speaker 3: the day yo.
Speaker 5: I think I started off communication like a lot of
Speaker 5: people be scared to hurt each other feelings, and a
Speaker 5: lot of people be afraid to have uncomfortable conversations, whether
Speaker 5: it's about kids, unhashed differences whatever. Like one day me
Speaker 5: and Rome just literally met up and just we just
Speaker 5: talked about everything that, you know, he felt like I
Speaker 5: did him wrong in certain situations, and then he felt
Speaker 5: like like I will always try because he says, I'm
Speaker 5: controlling a lot, and I do take that, you know
Speaker 5: what I'm saying, Yeah, I own that.
Speaker 3: I do.
Speaker 5: Like I was trying to control how he parents sometimes,
Speaker 5: like how how he would raise Ash and all of
Speaker 5: that type of stuff. We just put everything on the
Speaker 5: table and just just was like, all right, you're moving
Speaker 5: forward because it's really about Ash and that's really like
Speaker 5: when we after that, it was like no looking.
Speaker 4: Back, It's like all right, whatever.
Speaker 3: Cool.
Speaker 5: It was just communication.
Speaker 6: But I think that it's a couple of things, man, communication,
Speaker 6: feelings out of it, ego out of it, ego for sure,
Speaker 6: and just man, both parties, both parties got to be
Speaker 6: in it. Door man like, I feel like you know now,
Speaker 6: like even at my kids school and ship man like, dang,
Speaker 6: you should the man.
Speaker 4: I think that's fucked up.
Speaker 1: Your kids school, my children, my own children.
Speaker 4: I feel like, you know, the father is not a
Speaker 4: norm so I always been.
Speaker 1: I ain't. It's not I want.
Speaker 6: I ain't say I'm changing on, but I'm changing on,
Speaker 6: like it's me. You ain't got to call the mother,
Speaker 6: you know I didn't Max, So call your father, Yeah
Speaker 6: that's me.
Speaker 1: Call me.
Speaker 4: Don't call them others. I'm hands on.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be that.
Speaker 6: And my oldest eleven man young. I just sat to school,
Speaker 6: sat in the class for them the whole day.
Speaker 5: They call you, but Ash called me on the side
Speaker 5: my dad much.
Speaker 1: But that was the thing too.
Speaker 4: We had to she had to learn don't don't don't
Speaker 4: try to take the father from the child.
Speaker 1: Let me father him.
Speaker 6: Because I refuse for my son to become a statistic
Speaker 6: I refuse my son to become a young, hurt little boy.
Speaker 6: I refuse from my son to grow up not knowing
Speaker 6: how to love a woman.
Speaker 4: I refuse my.
Speaker 6: Son to be so many things that his father was,
Speaker 6: I'm still young, so I'm still you know, I told
Speaker 6: I told now, you're early. I said, man, like you
Speaker 6: know one of my I'm gonna write my right. I'm
Speaker 6: gonna write my rights to my boys.
Speaker 1: Still learning unlearning right correct correct, unlearning to learn when
Speaker 1: this co parents ain't easy man.
Speaker 5: And I used to be. I used to be hold
Speaker 5: on him. How he was so hard on my son,
Speaker 5: Like no, like you like as gotta want to talk
Speaker 5: to you. You got to make him want to talk
Speaker 5: to you, like he used to like come and talk
Speaker 5: to me about things. He was scared to go to
Speaker 5: his father about now because it was any abusive relationships anything.
Speaker 5: It was just like I can't talk today. You know.
Speaker 4: It was my son problem.
