When discussing people that did criminal shyt: "I love you....but I ain't got Johnny Cochran money to get you out."

Talking about friends: "don't be riding in the car with a bunch of brehs. If there's 5 of y'all in one car, guaranteed at least 1 is gonna wanna do some dumb shyt. Start wildin out. Cops pull y'all over and somebody got some of that bullshyt on em." Mom was right because I knew A LOT of people getting high back then.

More stuff about friends: "don't be hanging around with a bunch of men, especially if likka and drugs is involved. People do weird shyt. Keep your circle tight"


Kept me out the streets.
