 Coming from KKC, you know what I mean, my mom killed my dad or who I believe was my dad. Oh, who you believed to be your dad. Columbus Keith Short Senior. Yeah we on boss talk one on one, one on one. Yeah we gon' talk. Insanity. Insanity. Doing something over and over again expecting a different result. Exactly, cause I always tell people cause a lot of times I normally start out by getting your back story because you have a lot of people who come on here and they'll talk about how their daddy was, whether they were absent and you know I'm like okay, so how did you change that with your children? How did you try to break that because- That's real. I'm in the process. You know what I mean? I'm in the process. You know what I mean? Like I'm gonna keep it a buck because you know I found out, you know I'm from Kansas City, Missouri. I wanted to talk about that. Let's get into that. I wanna know- Hold on. Let's go back first before. Yeah that's what I wanna do. We don't know man. We wanna know- I'm from Kansas City, Missouri man. And you were raised how? I was raised- you jumped. So you just jumped a whole movie. There's a whole lot of stuff. Okay go ahead. I'll let you go. Go ahead. So coming from KKC, you know what I mean? My mom killed my dad or who I believe was my dad. Oh who you believed to be your dad? Columbus Keith Short Senior. Wow. He was a police officer in Kansas City. How old were you when that happened? I was two weeks from being born. Wow. Yeah. I was not born yet. I was in- but you know now that I have four kids so like now understanding like you know- Right. Like that third trimester when they came here and they- you know I was there. I was just in the womb. I was just protected. I've heard that. Do you know what I mean? So all of that. You know I heard the gunshot. I was there. I felt it. And you can be affected by it? Yeah yeah. That's why I like my whole life I didn't know. I was like man for a long time I got dem- I was like Batman. I didn't- I didn't wanna mess with no guns. You know what I'm saying? I was like guns is like- Did your mom ever explain all of that to you when you got older? I mean we working on it. You know- Do you have a relationship with her? Absolutely. Okay. When she gets real, when the gets real gets real, we can- I'm not ready to drop about the gets real. I'm gonna say this- Okay okay okay. People always you know they be like man you- because I go in. Like you say my- my- my- I could have been him. Because my mom you know shot at my daddy. Shut up to your dad. And I was like three sitting there watching. Oh you watched it? Yeah. Yes I did. Yes I did. So when I say stuff like the people be like man you know the kids let them- But we going- I'm like we challenging the same energy man. I thought that he would have ran out but his dad didn't even run out. He ran after her. Yeah. I'm like she had a gun. He been shot in the head once. My daddy got shot. He did- This is country living. He got shot in the head with a bullet- a .22 I believe a small gun. And he ran up his own thing. No it never did penetrate. It stopped. And he put it in his pocket. He used to carry it around. You gotta be kidding me. I'm not playing bro. He used to carry it around in his pocket. I'm not playing. Damn. Different. And my uncle got shot in the same place. He got shot killed. He got shot in the back of the head. Ay man my mama towed up Kansas City. I'm not gonna lie. She was bad. Jeanette Bentley towed Kansas City apart. And if anybody know Kansas City from 1982 she towed that motherfucker up. Wow. That's on God. And I can tell you know me I told my mama know that. I knew we cool. We can- Mom you towed it. You burnt that motherfucker down. Are you the only child? I'm from Kansas City. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. So you were the only one who experienced all of that? I was- So my mom was going through the case. You gotta remember this. You know what I'm saying? You gotta think about that. Right. I was gonna be born in jail. So you know the shorts. The shorts. Edna's short. Richard's short. You know all the shorts. Janine's short. My auntie Nene. You know what I mean? They had to take me in. You know what I mean? They had to. Because that's who you know what I mean? Right. But it's crazy bro. But it's crazy bro. Because I just got my birth certificate like three weeks ago. And well I ordered it eight months ago. But I just saw it three weeks ago. How did it feel looking at it? There was no name on the- there was no father's name. Wow. So you know that's where the case began. But you know. Onwards and upwards. No the reason why I always like to go back into people because our viewers can see the elevation. See that it doesn't end with just you know something traumatic happening. No. Because some people live in hate for the rest of their life and blame it all on their past and not realize that you have a future. You have a choice to change your future. Correct. Not to live in hate. Not to live in anger. Not to live in what you did with. You know what I mean? You know what's amazing about what you're saying is what's empowering me is that I was talking to one of these, this young man who's like, he's like I don't know. Like a baby brother or like a son. But he was, he's went through a really bad situation. You know what I mean? He thought this girl, he was raising with his daughter. It wasn't his daughter. And it's like. A lot of people go through that. And he spiraled out and he you know overdosed and the other stuff. And you know we talked a couple days ago and I said man all you got to do man. Man it's not, I've been there. You know what I'm saying? Right. But you just keep pressing. You know what I'm saying? Do not quit. If you quit it's over with. Do not quit. That's the name of the game. Do not quit. But I think it's harder for someone like you to go through certain situations than a regular Joe Blow. The reason why? Because you have the whole world watching you. That's what I'm saying. So whenever you, you know, people see you look a certain way or you know act a certain way. Right. They get to go to social media and oh he's going through this and he's this and that. If I had a phone back then when he cut up at the Palladium ballroom I would have, I would have put it out there. I would have been out here looking like a mystery back in the day. Cause they didn't have phones like that back then. Oh yo, I shut them down. You cut up man. We're back in the day. Hey country. Hey, they didn't want us back in them days. No, no, no. It was ugly. We was burning down cities.
