My mama always used to tell me: 'If you can't find somethin' to live for, you best find somethin' to die for.'
I worked hard all my life as far as this music business. I dreamed of the day when I could go to New York and feel comfortable and they could come out here and be comfortable.
What I learned in jail is that I can't change. I can't live a different lifestyle-this is it. This is the life that they gave and this is the life that I made.
If I win and get the money, then the Oakland Police department is going to buy a boys' home, me a house, my family a house, and a Stop Police Brutality Center.
It's a struggle for every young Black man. You know how it is, only God can judge us.
All I'm trying to do is survive and make good out of the dirty, nasty, unbelievable lifestyle that they gave me.

It's the game of life. Do I win or do I lose? One day they're gonna shut the game down. I gotta have as much fun and go around the board as many times as I can before it's my turn to leave.
I just don't know how to deal with so many people giving me that much affection. I never had that in my life.
