SPEAKER_30

Wanna tell y'all a little story about my life? Check it out.

unknown

Check it out.

SPEAKER_30

I was born and raised in Oakland. And I probably well have my grave. They said I was a gifted child, but sometimes I just wouldn't behave. I was only the age of six. The teacher caught me going in there. A recess, I sat on the bench. I said, please don't tell my mama she might break, got the Hot Wheel crack. Or maybe be extension cord and leave some bruises on my back. I ask the most high dude, forgive me for all of my crazy sin. But if I'm being truthful, I'll probably do it all over again, all over again. All over again. All over again. All over again. Daddy was a drug addict. Heroin was a drug he used. I started smoking weed at 12, and I just felt so confused. Would I end up like my daddy? That's not who I wanted to be. So I set out on the journey. What I was looking for was me. Music started calling. I think if I had to save my life, it became my only addiction. My lover and my wife. I have the most high dude forgive me for all of my crazy sins. But if I'm being truthful, I probably do it all over again, all over again. All over again. All over again. All over again. Ladies, there were many. I couldn't even count them all. They came from many countries. Thick, thin, short, small, and tall. You see when you live in Oakland, variety is the spice of life. I truly did love the ladies. I never thought I would have a wife. But the answers they blessed me with a woman and a child. And if I'm being honest, it's the only thing that slowed me down. I ask the most high to forgive me for all of my crazy sins. But if I'm being truthful, I'll probably do it all over again, all over again. All over again. All over again. All over again. All over again. All over again.

SPEAKER_16
