Um, there are people with smokers coughs and fucked up teeth and bad hair and they stink because most of them are homeless or eating at a shelter or they're, they're people that need fucking help and they can't even get it because society just deems them as we don't want to associate ourselves. Right. So I go into this church and that's all these people are.

And so I'm like, Jesus, you know, I'm like, you just have this uneasy feeling. He's leading the congregation or whatever. Everybody here loves him. My mom loves him. He starts selling her pipe dreams. Okay. The way I think of pipe dreams are you sit around, you're drinking or smoking, you're hitting the pipe maybe. And you start to have all these visions, right?

Of like, Hey, we're going to buy a house. We're going to live this great life. We're going to get out of this and we're going to do great things. And what happens when you're sober? It goes away. Okay. We end up – he starts dating – my mom starts dating this guy. And he has my mom and sister's, like, fucking hook, line, and sinker. Just he's got them. And I was always just uneasy about him.

And we end up moving to this other house that had no utilities. We lived in this house. We were moving in. The utilities weren't turned on. Living without utilities was something I was familiar with. There were often times where we had to boil the bath water or whatever, which sucks, but that's just being poor. Being poor is not that hard. Living without love is hard.

I'll say that living without utilities was not a traumatic moment in my life, although to some people, they can't even begin to fathom what that's like. Nonetheless... We move into this house in the middle of winter in Ohio, okay? It's cold as fuck. And so cold in the house you can see your breath.

We're running an extension cord through the shared basement of our neighbors to steal their power just to run a freaking space heater. And... So... The downstairs, there's no bedrooms. The upstairs has two bedrooms. So me and my sisters, we go upstairs. I always got the smaller room because it was me and those two shared a room, right? We go up, at the top of the stairs is my room.

I walk in, it's got hardwood floors and they're buckled all the way across the floor. Like, cracked, split, damaged. The room smells like shit and piss. Just stunk really bad. The people that lived there before apparently had, like, two or three dogs that were locked up in the room. And, yeah, so... I mean, it was, like, fucking horrible. I just remember it being just disgusting. And, um...

I, you know, the floors are damaged and you might be wondering why I look up and in the corner of my bedroom, there's a fucking hole that's like three feet by four feet in the corner of my ceiling in my bedroom. Like everything's missing. You can see straight into the attic above. No insulation, like nothing, right? I mean, it's like I'm looking up, I'm like, and it's fucking freezing, obviously.
