 It was crazy, stories from the cell. Now, I had this one old cat. Myself, I was in the cell by myself, and he just came from the hole, he was arguing with a guard, old school. He come into my cell, all he had was a box and a typewriter. And all he used to do was law work, and he used to do these crossword puzzles all the time on the top bunk. And one day, I walked in the cell from the yard, and he was like, how many minutes, youngie? You know, how many minutes was it? I ain't paying him no attention, he was doing life. But you would never think he was doing life because he was just a solid OG, just mind his business. And I said, minutes, I'm at the sink, washing my hands, I'm just coming from the yard. He said, how many minutes, man? He said about, I said, I give you probably like, I give you like three, four. I said, minutes for what? I don't know what to find. You know, this is OG, I don't know what he's talking about, but his sound is coming off deep. He said, how many minutes did it take? I mean, for you to get your residency here. I said, what you mean, man? Fucking residency. He said, how many minutes did you take to earn this, this stay, you know, your stay? Fuck is you talking about? Minutes. So he said, you got your law? See, I got my law work. I'm like, man, he said, let me show you something. Let me show you something. So I go, he said, what's your case? I show him my case. He said, okay, you see these two? He said, this the police report? And this the police report. Took both of my police reports, and he said, okay, you robbed the joint at this time? They say you was in there for that long? Or you robbed this joint for this time? They say you was in there that long? He said, that's like, each of them is like two and a half all together. That's like five minutes, man. He said, five minutes got you 20 years in prison? He said, five minutes. He said, five minutes. He said, man, you know, and that's long. He said, that's a long time. He said, if you were to shot somebody, it'd have been like one minutes. You know, you could, you know, you probably could have lost your life for one minute. Cause he said, my eyes ain't take that long. You something saying? He said, I stabbed him on, like, man, it wasn't no, man, it wasn't even no, I don't know how long it was. It wasn't no minute. So I stabbed him on a couple of times. He checked out. Wasn't even no minute, but five minutes. So I said, damn it. He jumped back on the beach, kept doing his crossword puzzles and it fucked me up for a while. Cause I'm like, damn, I gave my life for five minutes. And I'm saying that to say to y'all, like, you'll be sitting up in the cell for the rest of your life about one move that lasts at a minute. It only take one minute to shoot a gun. I'm taking, take one minute. So I'm saying that I did, I did 20 years in the joint for five minutes, five minutes and some bullshit could change your whole life forever. And like, if you out there, I'm gonna just say this to the people that wanna hear cause you know, you got a lot of dudes out there. You're all real niggas. This ain't for you, cause you probably don't wanna hear this shit. Oh, gee, tripping. But for those that's not sure about the direction you wanna go and you loving your life and you just like, you feel as though you gotta be making some moves or doing some shit that's outside of yourself in order to be accepted with whoever you dealing with right now. I'm talking to you. It's five minutes verse your life. One minute, is it worth? If it is, that's your thing. But if it ain't, you gotta reroute. You gotta restructure your whole route, whatever direction you're going on and get the fuck away from the people that you're around that got you thinking you gotta be a real nigga in order to win. Being a real nigga is getting out there getting your education cause I'm gonna tell you something. For all the things, money I took, whatever I took and you got a lot of cash out here. I ain't working at no motherfucking McDonald's. I ain't working here. I ain't working there. But what fucked me up is when I seen kingpins and dudes that used to run neighborhoods wiping the table in the kitchen for 30 cents an hour. But you got a lot of dudes, I ain't man, I got a hustle. They ain't giving me enough money but you'll go to jail and work your fucking ass off in the kitchen trying to steal some green peppers and onions and shit and sell them. Talk to them. Or some white gold, that sugar. You know what I mean? Just to sell it. You know what I mean? That's white gold. You and they're trying to sling and bang with that shit but you couldn't do this. Everybody too cool. And then now we living in the time, you know motherfuckers in God Hollywood, the PUA came now. Everybody in cap so much that they can't go back there and live a real life no more. Everybody got on Instagram, I got money. I'm the shit. I'm this, I'm that. I'm on the yacht of Miami to now. They can't even go back to the jobs they had because they didn't shit it on their employers. You know, they didn't cap so much. They ain't, now everybody hot now. They ain't a cut like I ain't going. They grams and slow down and nobody want to work, man. Stories from the cell.
