- I'm guilty of where I live. I was never part of no gang. That's just because of the neighborhood. You don't even have to be in the gang. You can probably only grow up in the community, you part of the gang already.
- I'm innocent. I'll explain it to all of them. I'm just a young black kid coming from a nasty neighborhood. I made it out, and a lot of people don't want to see that.
