It's right there in the Bible, Exodus 20:13: '"Thou shall not kill.' Boys, the Lord didn't put you here to be shooting and killing each other. Now what I want to talk to you two about is the trouble that you've been getting into.You need to be glad that you graduated from high school, and that you're alive at eighteen, and you need to do something with yourself before you end up like he (Pernell) did.My grandpa asked me one time if I care whether I live or die. I guess in the end, it all catches up with you. I'd done too much to turn back, and I'd done too much to go on. I mean, you never knew what was gonna happen or when. Like I said, it was funny like that in the hood sometimes. I never thought he'd come back like this-blasting. After stomping on Ilena's cousin like that, I knew I was gonna have to deal with that fool someday, but damn.I just knew that I could kill somebody, and if I had to, I could do it again. I thought killing those fools would make me feel good, but it really didn't make me feel anything.Instead of keeping me out of trouble, they turned me on to it. I caught on to the criminal life real quick. Growing up with parents like that, I heard a lot and I saw a lot. Sometimes Mom would use 'em all up before he could even sell 'em.

My pop sometimes worked as an electrician or a cab driver or a plumber, but his main job was selling drugs. They would always be giving parties for friends of theirs who just got out of jail or was on their way to jail. Moms and Pops were real popular in the neighborhood. My father sold dope and my mother was a heroin addict.Growing up out here, there was shit that couldn't be learned in no classroom. But then, I didn't go to school but half the time. For all the bullshit they try to teach you in high school, I graduated with about half of it.America's nightmare: Young, black, and didn't give a fuck. Now O-Dog was the craziest nigga alive.After that I knew it was gonna be a long summer. You never knew what was gonna happen, or when. It's funny like that in the hood sometimes. Came out an accessory to murder and armed robbery. Went into the store just to get a beer.
