I went and got my clothes from over here at this house I was living at and went back home. But at this point, my bedroom is the whole bottom of the house, which is like a studio.

Don't disrespect your mom. I'll be watching you. So one night I'm coming home. And as I'm coming back up, mind you, I have to go about four blocks away from where we hustle at to go home.

And it was a guy kind of standing across the street acting as if he was looking for address. He asked me, do I know where a certain address is, like 2718? I was like, nah, bro, I don't really know where that address is.
