And they're all ex-cons and stuff like that.

So they did all CYA time, DVI back then, Tracy.

and all the older prisons.

So he kind of laced me up because I was being told at a young age because, I don't know, I was treated like a red-headed stepchild.

So I was told that I would potentially go to prison, you know.

So I didn't have anybody in my life.

Yeah, because I was running away, doing a bunch of dumb shit, you know, because I just didn't.

I was in a situation where I'm trying now to help kids where you give your kid a safe space, you know what I mean, to talk about stuff, and maybe I would have told them what happened to me.

I was never given that.

So we didn't have, like, role models in our life.

Nobody gave a fuck about us.

You know what I mean?

So I started hanging out with him.

I wasn't really doing any crimes or anything like that.

And then one day, just a homeboy came up, and it was my birthday.

And he was like, hey, want to go do something fun?

I was like, yeah, sure, why not?

So we get in the car.

Didn't know it was stolen.

You know, so we're getting this little beat up shitty car.
