And I said, I've got to go get on pretty much.

I'm out.

I just need an x-ray.

Just give me a pair of crutches.

So I hobbled it off for the next six months.

And in that time of not being able to put weight on my foot, I was addicted to drugs.

I was in, you know, trap houses.

I'd ended up in a back bedroom.

The house had been shot up two nights running.

So it got shot up one night and it got shot up the next.

Everybody in that house had left.

I was in the back bedroom and I'd woke up in the morning and the deal was I had to go get high again or else I was going to be sick because I was on heroin too.

And I'd had enough.

I can remember thinking in my head that if I don't get clean, I'm going to die because I had three ODs in my active addiction where I'd been brought back to life.

Like I said, the stabbings, the shootings, all the stuff.

I got to a time where I just knew if I didn't get clean, I was going to end up dead.

And I remember that morning I thought, I can't go get on.

I've been doing this for four years now.

This bender went on for four years.

And I thought, if I go get on again, there's another week cycle of getting high and it moves into the next one.
