I hope you're watching 498 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 1: more than me coming to you explaining you that, oh 499 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 1: I'm clean, I'm to show you.

So you try to be 502 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 1: straight up and down, you know what I mean, so 503 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 1: I can actually gain that back. But like one thing 504 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 1: that's in my head, that that I'm sure of, like 505 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 1: with God got for me, nobody could take it like 506 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: and whenever, whenever it's ready, you know it will still 507 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,680 Speaker 1: be there, you know what I mean. So once you 508 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:50,920 Speaker 1: get it, once you get it right with God and yourself, 509 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 1: everything comes after that and in ten time fold, once 510 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 1: you sacrifice giving that up, you know, it's like God, 511 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 1: God has something like behind his back and then he's 512 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 1: asking me for what's in my hand, you know, and 513 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 1: if I give it to him, he gives me, you 514 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,120 Speaker 1: know what I mean. So I'm waiting on my trade 515 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 1: out right now. In fact, I think the biggest, biggest 516 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 1: part is you know, sometimes we'll be we'll be focusing 517 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 1: on like I gotta forgive others. Most of the time 518 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 1: we have to forgive ourselves. Look inside yourself. Sometimes you'll 519 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 1: be you'll be down on yourself so hard from the 520 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 1: thing that you don't put yourself through, you can never 521 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 1: come through that ship.

But back, I don't 563 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 1: remember how long ago. I think it was maybe like 564 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 1: a year possibly two ago. You had a situation with 565 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 1: some bandana putting right, and it was blown out of proportion, 566 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 1: like you know, it made to be like such a 567 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: big deal to the point where, um, if I'm not mistaken, 568 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: like law enforcement had to get involved, and it was 569 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: like this whole big thing. But I want to know, 570 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: like what actually happened with that ship, because they made 571 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 1: it seem like it was just some of the most 572 00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: unbelievable ship and it didn't even make sense like the 573 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: way they were explaining it was and they I mean 574 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 1: the media people or whatever.

Um, 575 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 1: me and my baby mom, you know, we was having 576 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 1: a cookout with the kids and it was you know, 577 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 1: in the banana putting was just very good. So we 578 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,040 Speaker 1: was at we got into this, We got into this argument, 579 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 1: and you know when we was arguing, we kind of 580 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 1: like let it go because the kids was around. And 581 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 1: then we both was at the refrigerator and I was 582 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 1: grabbing the banana putting and I was like, you know, 583 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: I think I was agitated coming down off something and 584 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, what was that ship you were 585 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 1: talking about early, and so we're arguing.

So we ended up letting it 588 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 1: flow outside. So we're arguing. So when we got outside, 589 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:50,959 Speaker 1: you know, my ego got in the way. I went 590 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 1: to yelling and you know, and everybody was outside, so 591 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: she threw it.

And then when 594 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 1: I threw it, it got right here. Yeah, in the 595 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 1: in the neighbor saw it, and the neighbor called the cops. 596 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 1: And when the cops came, my my baby mom was 597 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 1: looking at black I can't call the police and then 598 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: like that. But you know, he was like, what's in 599 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: your hair?

But I totally deserved it 608 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 1: because of the verbal abuse that I caused, Like that 609 00:31:56,360 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 1: I said in front of the kids, like accountability.

But that goes back to 815 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 1: what God gives you. It can't be it, you know 816 00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 1: what I mean. If not this, then something. But I 817 00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 1: feel like if you think that way, you won't go back, 818 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like, I ain't got no 819 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,080 Speaker 1: more trying. Thank you God for get me one more. 820 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, You gotta take advantage of this. 821 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:14,799 Speaker 1: So you know what I'm saying. When you out there 822 00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:18,359 Speaker 1: always thinking like I can do something later, that ship 823 00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 1: kind of fuck you up. You know what I'm saying, 824 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 1: Like I can get clean later, or I can got now, 825 00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 1: I can drop take Nick Shiell. You know what I'm saying. 826 00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:28,200 Speaker 1: That's that's what I did with the habit, that it 827 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 1: was about to be it. You know what I mean? 828 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 1: That was when I went out there bro it wasn't 829 00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:35,839 Speaker 1: nothing else I can come up with. I was leaving 830 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:38,320 Speaker 1: on my own understanding. I was trying to make sense 831 00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:40,279 Speaker 1: of it. And if you caught me out of my 832 00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:42,959 Speaker 1: habit me and you got the argument because I didn't 833 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 1: want you to call me out like I wanted to 834 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:48,799 Speaker 1: be able to notice my problem before you. You need 835 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,279 Speaker 1: to get together, man, Chill, I don't do it as man, 836 00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 1: do you know what I'm saying. But when when when 837 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 1: I left Broke, it was we was kinding, we was 838 00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 1: running down the street. I was like, that's it. I 839 00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:06,680 Speaker 1: was like that, I don't got any more solutions. You 840 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:08,959 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, I gotta I gotta get into 841 00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:11,640 Speaker 1: solution instead of looking for one, you know what I'm saying. 842 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:13,719 Speaker 1: So that's what I did, man, And when I went 843 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 1: when I went bro for the first month broad, I 844 00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 1: probably cried every session, you know what I mean, because 845 00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:24,279 Speaker 1: they were just pulling stuff. I'm like, well, I didn't 846 00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:26,279 Speaker 1: know that was you know what I'm saying part of 847 00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:28,480 Speaker 1: the reason. They were like, yeah, he just deep dieg 848 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,359 Speaker 1: dig and he was making me act out how I act. 849 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:34,080 Speaker 1: They asked me how much money I spent, and once 850 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 1: I sat down and had a clear mind seeing the 851 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 1: numbers and I was coming up with I was like, yeah, 852 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,400 Speaker 1: I'm glad I came out here. And if I wouldn't 853 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 1: have came, y'all probably would be talking about rest in 854 00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:50,160 Speaker 1: peace drove, you know what I mean? Because right now 855 00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:53,359 Speaker 1: fitting all is just everywhere and you can get your 856 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:57,320 Speaker 1: hands on it and it can actually damage. And I 857 00:44:57,440 --> 00:45:00,120 Speaker 1: think that God didn't want my ind all to be that, know, 858 00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 1: so I didn't, you know what I mean? So yeah, 859 00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 1: I felt like that was it? What what you feel 860 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:12,200 Speaker 1: like your purpose is now? I want to I want 861 00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:15,080 Speaker 1: to teach habit. I want to teach music, but I 862 00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 1: also want to teach about the habit, you know, And 863 00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:22,279 Speaker 1: black young men and about getting help man, you know 864 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:25,000 Speaker 1: what I mean, and being in a fellowship. I want 865 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:29,040 Speaker 1: to have a fellowship of you know, it's gonna sound 866 00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:31,759 Speaker 1: corny to the average street person, but actually to save 867 00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:35,040 Speaker 1: your life, you know what I mean. I want to yeah, 868 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:36,960 Speaker 1: and I want you to see it from the standpoint 869 00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:40,520 Speaker 1: like you know how preachers tried counselors in school and 870 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:43,200 Speaker 1: they don't be you know, go through it. I actually 871 00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:45,239 Speaker 1: got bullet wounds and stuff like that. You can see, 872 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:48,000 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying that you know, relatable person 873 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:50,239 Speaker 1: like man dro Ro did that. So you know, I 874 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:52,600 Speaker 1: want to I want to teach music and also teach 875 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 1: about drugs, and that comes along with my book that 876 00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:59,040 Speaker 1: I'm writing. It's called Rap and it's it's about rap, 877 00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:01,960 Speaker 1: but all of the stuff that was around it, you know, 878 00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:05,440 Speaker 1: the shootouts and the friends and you know, making it 879 00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:08,560 Speaker 1: in the music business, keeping the same friends, and how 880 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:11,839 Speaker 1: bad that could be. You know, you can be like say, 881 00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:14,239 Speaker 1: for instance, they can this can be a spot and 882 00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:17,160 Speaker 1: I'm the only rapper in here, and the cops can come, 883 00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. When the cops get here, 884 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:23,080 Speaker 1: everybody goes to jail, but only I'm gonna get you know, 885 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:27,600 Speaker 1: put on the news, you know, the notoriety. So you 886 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:32,320 Speaker 1: actually have a platform and you're using it for that, 887 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:34,239 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, that's the wrong way to 888 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:36,000 Speaker 1: do it.
