Your parents are supposed to tell you to make decisions that are gonna help you and that'll have a positive effect on your life and your well-being.

As gang members, as young dudes in the streets, especially in L.A., we're the effect of a situation. We didn't wake up and create our own mindstate and our environment; we adapted our survival instincts.

I'm focusing on the music, but I still got a cold library of books that I've either read or I plan on getting to.

All the smart money got they bets on me / And all the real niggas wish the best for me

I'm more focused on giving solutions and inspiration more than anything.

Killing and gangbanging, that's just wrong.

I was never ignorant, as far as being experienced in classrooms and learning about different subjects and actually soaking it up.
