WEBVTT - One Mistake

0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:04.360
<v Speaker 1>I see Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's

0:00:04.400 --> 0:00:08.039
<v Speaker 1>Up Besides te You're listening to The Daily Game, a

0:00:08.200 --> 0:00:12.200
<v Speaker 1>compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that

0:00:12.320 --> 0:00:16.480
<v Speaker 1>I've found inspiring and helped me through the game of life.

0:00:18.280 --> 0:00:23.200
<v Speaker 1>Today's quote reminds us that we aren't invincible, even when

0:00:23.239 --> 0:00:29.240
<v Speaker 1>we're on top. Everyone is just one mistake away from

0:00:29.320 --> 0:00:36.839
<v Speaker 1>prison or death. Everyone. Now you're probably sitting around thinking, now,

0:00:37.000 --> 0:00:39.200
<v Speaker 1>come on, man, I don't break the law. I could

0:00:39.200 --> 0:00:42.400
<v Speaker 1>never go to prison, or how could I die? You know,

0:00:42.440 --> 0:00:44.640
<v Speaker 1>the only thing you have control of, you don't even

0:00:44.640 --> 0:00:49.640
<v Speaker 1>really have control of, is this immediate second. This immediate second,

0:00:49.640 --> 0:00:51.159
<v Speaker 1>the one that just went by, the one that just

0:00:51.760 --> 0:00:54.760
<v Speaker 1>this one. You have a little bit of control of

0:00:54.840 --> 0:00:59.600
<v Speaker 1>this second. That's it. You don't have control of the

0:00:59.600 --> 0:01:03.280
<v Speaker 1>next minute. You don't have the control of the next hour.

0:01:03.920 --> 0:01:08.000
<v Speaker 1>Any fucking thing could happen. People always ask me, They go,

0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:10.199
<v Speaker 1>but how's your life? I say, my life is great

0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:12.399
<v Speaker 1>as long as I don't pick up the phone. As

0:01:12.440 --> 0:01:14.679
<v Speaker 1>soon as I pick up the phone, God knows what's

0:01:14.720 --> 0:01:17.120
<v Speaker 1>on the other end of that phone. Somebody I know

0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:21.319
<v Speaker 1>could be sick. One of my family members could be

0:01:21.440 --> 0:01:25.440
<v Speaker 1>in trouble. Anything could happen. You drive a car, you're

0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:29.560
<v Speaker 1>one mistake away from vehicular manslaughter. Anything, someone could step

0:01:29.600 --> 0:01:32.040
<v Speaker 1>in front of the car. You get in a plane.

0:01:32.520 --> 0:01:35.720
<v Speaker 1>You're in a can going six hundred miles an hour

0:01:36.360 --> 0:01:41.160
<v Speaker 1>at forty thousand feet. Anything can happen at any split second,

0:01:41.280 --> 0:01:44.760
<v Speaker 1>at any moment. Right now, I could grab my chest

0:01:44.840 --> 0:01:48.200
<v Speaker 1>and have a heart attack. So we are so out

0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:51.560
<v Speaker 1>of control of our lives. So the theory that you

0:01:51.600 --> 0:01:54.880
<v Speaker 1>can't go to jail, and here's something against a lot

0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:57.880
<v Speaker 1>of y'all squares need to understand. You don't have to

0:01:57.960 --> 0:02:00.280
<v Speaker 1>do it to go to jail. You just need to

0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:03.080
<v Speaker 1>be accused of it. You don't have to be guilty

0:02:03.360 --> 0:02:05.880
<v Speaker 1>to go to jail. There's a lot of people in

0:02:06.000 --> 0:02:08.880
<v Speaker 1>jail that are innocent. You just need to be accused

0:02:09.200 --> 0:02:12.280
<v Speaker 1>and have the chips fall in the wrong pattern and

0:02:12.320 --> 0:02:15.919
<v Speaker 1>you're fucked. Maybe not you, but maybe one of your

0:02:15.919 --> 0:02:21.080
<v Speaker 1>family members. And death. Death is imminent, it's coming, you know.

0:02:21.200 --> 0:02:24.639
<v Speaker 1>I say love is not guaranteed in life, only death.

0:02:25.080 --> 0:02:29.680
<v Speaker 1>So all of us are sitting in this weird warp

0:02:29.760 --> 0:02:32.160
<v Speaker 1>where we're all the same age. I say, we're all

0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:35.120
<v Speaker 1>the same age, because you're either alive or you're dead.

0:02:35.960 --> 0:02:39.799
<v Speaker 1>We are the age of alive. That's it. Whether you

0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:42.679
<v Speaker 1>actually have been here more years or whatever, it doesn't matter,

0:02:42.760 --> 0:02:47.160
<v Speaker 1>doesn't guarantee your outlive me. See what I'm saying. We

0:02:47.280 --> 0:02:50.800
<v Speaker 1>have to humble ourselves to the fact that one mistake,

0:02:51.560 --> 0:02:56.520
<v Speaker 1>one decision, can instantly change the course and trajectory of

0:02:56.560 --> 0:03:00.600
<v Speaker 1>our life. And if you know that, you will be cautious.

0:03:00.639 --> 0:03:03.000
<v Speaker 1>You'll think about it. You'll think about getting in the

0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:07.240
<v Speaker 1>car with your homeboy while he's drunk, or getting into

0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:10.040
<v Speaker 1>this particular fight that you don't need to get into

0:03:10.080 --> 0:03:12.359
<v Speaker 1>a fight. Something could go wrong and you get in

0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:15.480
<v Speaker 1>up paralyzed for the rest of your life. Anything. The

0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:19.440
<v Speaker 1>only thing you actually control. You don't control any of it. Honestly,

0:03:19.520 --> 0:03:21.079
<v Speaker 1>let me shut the fuck up, because you don't even

0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:24.160
<v Speaker 1>control this second. You're just aware of it. And you

0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:26.760
<v Speaker 1>can look around and say, Okay, that seems like I'm safe.

0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:29.160
<v Speaker 1>But as soon as I stand up and walk out

0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:34.600
<v Speaker 1>the studio door, any fucking thing can happen. Everyone is

0:03:34.639 --> 0:03:39.600
<v Speaker 1>just one mistake away from prison or death. Everyone, and

0:03:39.640 --> 0:03:44.000
<v Speaker 1>we can remove the word mistake. Everyone is just one

0:03:44.160 --> 0:03:49.760
<v Speaker 1>minute away from prison or death. It's that possible. This

0:03:49.880 --> 0:03:52.320
<v Speaker 1>has been another Ice Cole fact from me Ice Tea.

0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:56.320
<v Speaker 1>Listening again tomorrow when I drop some wisdom on your

0:03:56.360 --> 0:03:59.600
<v Speaker 1>ass till then, stay safe, stay smart, and stay knowing.

0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:03.280
<v Speaker 1>When it comes to prisoner death, we are all equal

0:04:03.640 --> 0:04:07.320
<v Speaker 1>and one wrong move might cost you your life. Stay

0:04:07.400 --> 0:04:12.640
<v Speaker 1>sharp and keep your circle tight. ICA's Daily Game is
