Garet McLendon

I'm everything, but pissed off at my mom for bringing this girl, little girl there.

Like, I'm like, how could you, man?

Because I, I didn't have no love.

Like I didn't have no, no part of me knew nothing about, I'm selfish and self-centered.

And all I thought about was getting, putting drugs.

Like I just, like running the streets and putting drugs in my system is all I cared about, man.

Right.

And, um,

And man, I stayed in that place for 18 months, dude.

And it was just like deep down inside of me.

And man, you get to a point, I was 33 years old and I was just tired of running those streets.

And I was tired of doing time.

And I was tired of all that homeboy shuffle and all that stuff, man.

And it just seemed like there was enough of me out of the way that I was in a place where I had nothing left, man.

Nothing.

Nothing.

When I got picked up that time right then and there,

I went to the county jail waiting to go down to that board meeting.

I'm drinking hand sanitizer with Top Ramen packs on it because they have alcohol inside the hand sanitizer.

We steal the bags out of the dispenser and put it in a cup, a little styrofoam cup.
