and the other two got killed in their late teens/early 20's.

they all had this switch where they would go from normal to violent as hell just like that. and once that shit kicked in, somebody was gonna end up dead or hospitalized. there were no other options.

i got a text about 6 months ago saying my man was home from prison. of the 45 years he's been alive, i'd say he spent at least 25 of them in prison. not jail, prison.

i never got a chance to get up with him cuz of all the stuff i got going on. last week i made a plan to go holla at him and they told me he was locked back up again.
