15:32
SPEAKER_00: And uh he almost took his life like almost like five years ago.
15:37
SPEAKER_01: Oh, no kidding.

15:48
SPEAKER_00: He's like, What do you mean?
15:49
SPEAKER_00: Just let me follow you.
15:50
SPEAKER_00: And I was like, he's like, what do you mean like about my work?
15:52
SPEAKER_00: I was like, I don't care, whatever you're doing, whatever you're doing for the fucking day, just let me follow you.
15:57

16:09
SPEAKER_00: He's like, Alright, that's kind of fucking weird, but alright.
16:12
SPEAKER_00: So that's what I did.
16:13
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and I made a little five-minute thing, and I put it on his page, yeah, and he's like, tease out that that's a trip, you know, and it was like cinematic type style, 4K, just you know, kind of catching little stuff, little conversations we're having.
16:31
SPEAKER_00: But also the most important part of that video is that he was sitting in his truck, like he was talking to himself.
16:40
SPEAKER_00: Like he was just in his low place.
16:43
SPEAKER_00: I didn't know how to get him out of it.
16:45
SPEAKER_00: And I would listen to him.
16:46
SPEAKER_00: And I had my I had my um my mic on and I kind of left my phone I had it on my phone.
16:51
SPEAKER_00: I left it back and I could just recording the video recording the video was a recording straight up, so it was kind of like the way this is right here.
16:58
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I had a mic going to it, and he was just recording.
17:01
SPEAKER_00: And he was just in a bad place, dude.
17:05
SPEAKER_00: And I was like, shit.
17:07
SPEAKER_00: So just that little video I made that he saw and he was like, I need to get myself out of that.
17:13
SPEAKER_00: I was like, Yeah, you do.
17:14
SPEAKER_00: I was like, I don't know how to help you, but whatever you need, I got you.
17:18
SPEAKER_00: So now he's living better.
17:20
SPEAKER_00: That's good.
17:20
SPEAKER_00: He's he's got his girls with him.
17:22
SPEAKER_00: No, so he's better off or he's in a good place, or I can kind of like not have to worry about him, but I check on check in on a lot.
17:31
SPEAKER_02: Wow man.
17:33
SPEAKER_02: You you did do you see that in your life?
17:35
SPEAKER_02: Like, has it ever have you ever been like that?
17:38
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah.
17:40
SPEAKER_02: What what help what help uh bring you out bring you from that?
17:43
SPEAKER_02: Or you I mean, are you still there or no?
17:46
SPEAKER_00: I'm not there, but I I have my spells.
17:48
SPEAKER_00: And like it didn't I I guess it happened like when I was in in the midst of high school.
17:57
SPEAKER_00: Because like my brother, he's older, he's seven years older than I am.
18:02
SPEAKER_00: My sister, she's like five years, but we were never close.
18:06
SPEAKER_00: So while I was going through my my teen years, whatever you want to call it, getting into that, you know, they had already, when I was getting into high school, they were already, they were already gone.
18:17
SPEAKER_00: So they were already in college, they were doing that thing, they were living their life, and whatever else in there I was.
18:22
SPEAKER_00: So I became like that fucking kind of like that black sheep kid, you know, saying that one that was always fucking up, always doing shit.
18:31
SPEAKER_00: You know, but everybody, you everybody's like, oh, he's doing this for this.
18:34
SPEAKER_00: I was like, like, you don't know where I'm at right now.
18:37
SPEAKER_00: So it was like that in kind of in high school where I was just in that in that dome where I felt like I couldn't get out of it.
18:45
SPEAKER_00: So music just kind of helped me evolve from that, and people would see what I was going through, they would see how bad I was, but at the same time, they couldn't do anything about it.
18:56
SPEAKER_00: They didn't know what was wrong.
18:59
SPEAKER_00: You know, so instead of like asking to like say, hey, are you good?
19:03
SPEAKER_00: They were just kind of like kicking you when you're kicking me in when I was down.
19:08
SPEAKER_00: So I got out of high school, I was good.
19:12
SPEAKER_00: It was up until I was like 25, is where I hit the bottom for me.
19:18
SPEAKER_00: And I literally got to a point where I didn't want to be alive.
19:22
SPEAKER_00: I got to a point where I it was it was because of my ex.
19:27
SPEAKER_00: She had taken my uh my firstborn that I haven't seen since he was like one, not even one.
19:34
SPEAKER_00: I was there and I was just in that hole and I drank myself to death.
19:39
SPEAKER_00: And uh at the process, I felt like the world owed me something.
19:43
SPEAKER_00: I felt like the world owed me something because why was this kind of shit happening to me?
19:48
SPEAKER_00: You know what I'm saying?
19:50
SPEAKER_00: I didn't understand it.
19:51
SPEAKER_00: I didn't get it.
19:53
SPEAKER_00: So along that way, I hurt people just to feel something.
19:58
SPEAKER_00: I did some fucked up shit just to feel something that I was somewhat important, but instead of people asking me if I was alright, they were just watching me do this shit.
20:10
SPEAKER_00: And then when I went down completely, when I actually went when I went down, it was like this motherfucker did this, this motherfucker did that, blah blah blah.
20:20
SPEAKER_00: It was like taking shots.
20:22
SPEAKER_00: So and at that point, I was I had I had like three months in jail in uh San Antonio for my child support.
20:29
SPEAKER_00: And then when I came back, that's when I when I was already hearing about all this shit.
20:33
SPEAKER_00: So people that I consider friends or family, they were nothing.
20:39
SPEAKER_00: So it took me it took me down that road, dude.
20:42
SPEAKER_00: You know, but if it wasn't for my kids, it wasn't for my wife, I probably wouldn't, I would probably be stuck in that place.
20:52
SPEAKER_00: Now it's like it's been so long, it's kind of like I get my spells, but no one really understands that it's not just something that I kind of went through, it was like it was everything that because I like I'm like you know, I'm ADD, so my mind wonders.
21:12
SPEAKER_00: I'm always doing shit.
21:13
SPEAKER_00: That's why I do so much shit.
21:15
SPEAKER_00: It's because I need that, you know, because if I sit in there doing one thing, I'll fucking kill myself, I'll fucking lose my shit.
21:21
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
21:22
SPEAKER_03: You find yourself doing a lot of a lot of stuff just to keep your mind busy.
21:25
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, literally.
21:26
SPEAKER_03: Really?
21:26
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
21:27
SPEAKER_00: Either it's gaming or it's fucking texting people or it's music, if it's you know, recording video, it's talking to people.
21:37
SPEAKER_00: I'm doing a lot just to keep my mind going because if I end up backing that hole, I don't know if I'm gonna ever get out of that.
21:45
SPEAKER_00: And like the like I have I had five good friends excuse me from high school that I grew literally grew up with from junior high and even some in elementary, and three of them are gone.
21:58
SPEAKER_00: You know.
22:00
SPEAKER_00: They opt themselves.
22:01
SPEAKER_00: And I in because after high school we all split apart.
22:04
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
22:05
SPEAKER_02: No more community.
22:07
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
22:07
SPEAKER_00: And we and but the ones but we all kept up with each other as much as we could.
22:12
SPEAKER_00: And we would do uh you know, we get on three way or calling everybody, you know, hey, you know, what's going on?
22:19
SPEAKER_00: How y'all doing?
22:19
SPEAKER_00: Blah blah blah.
22:20
SPEAKER_00: And that was the guys just, you know, they were bad.
22:24
SPEAKER_00: The two guys that were, I think there were one was the Marines and one was Army.
22:27
SPEAKER_00: They did the whole shit over there.
22:30
SPEAKER_00: They never came back the same.
22:31
SPEAKER_02: Oh my god.
22:33
SPEAKER_02: We got Philip Philip Perez says people like to watch your you self-destruct.
22:39
SPEAKER_02: Self-destructing.
22:40
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
22:40
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
22:42
SPEAKER_02: I can feel that.
22:45
SPEAKER_02: Well man.
22:46
SPEAKER_02: Well, I'm glad you're out of that place, bro.
22:47
SPEAKER_00: Oh yeah, man.
22:48
SPEAKER_00: If it wasn't for any of my music or any of that, man, I'd I'd lose my my entire shit.
22:55
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
22:56
SPEAKER_00: I mean, because I've been there and I'm but see the thing, that's that's a lot of things that no one no one knows.
23:01
SPEAKER_00: No one knew anything about that.
23:03
SPEAKER_02: You know, so they just about what you were going through?
23:05
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
23:05
SPEAKER_00: They just assumed that it was for something else.
23:08
SPEAKER_02: What do you mean?
23:09
SPEAKER_00: Like it was like if I was doing it for attention or some shit.
23:11
SPEAKER_02: Okay, okay.
23:12
SPEAKER_00: You know, but it wasn't.
23:14
SPEAKER_00: I was going through a lot of shit, and I never told anybody because I don't want my problems to be burnouts on anybody.
23:20
SPEAKER_00: So along with that way, I needed to feel some sort of way.
23:25
SPEAKER_00: And in that process, I had I was hurting people.
23:29
SPEAKER_01: No.
23:30
SPEAKER_00: Just for my own, like my own personal gain, because I needed to feel like I belonged somewhere.
23:34
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
23:35
SPEAKER_00: And even then, everybody should say, you know, you should find yourself when you're in high school.
23:40
SPEAKER_00: I didn't find anything.
23:42
SPEAKER_00: I was just like just I just I hated to be at school.
23:46
SPEAKER_00: I hated to do any of it.
23:48
SPEAKER_00: I didn't want to do any of it.
23:50
SPEAKER_00: You know, but I didn't have that that uh that uh growing up with my brother or my sister kind of like to help me go through that process.
23:58
SPEAKER_00: You know, my mom was I love her to death, but she was like, you gotta do this.
24:03
SPEAKER_00: You're pushing me and pushing me and pushing me.
24:04
SPEAKER_00: The more she pushed me, the more I just I I literally wanted nothing to do with following in anybody's footsteps.
24:14
SPEAKER_00: I wanted to do my own shit.
24:16
SPEAKER_00: And doing my own shit was to do what people didn't like to do, or go off on a different path to find myself in something else.
24:26
SPEAKER_00: And I knew I was gonna I knew I was gonna fall on my face.
24:28
SPEAKER_00: I knew I was gonna fail.
24:29
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
24:30
SPEAKER_00: But without that path that I made for myself, I wouldn't be where I'm at.
24:35
SPEAKER_02: Right.
24:36
SPEAKER_02: I got I I'm like also ADD, ADHD, and I think for a lot of years, up until like getting married, I had difficulty communicating with people, or communicating a lot of times I would just freaking would it bottled up to the point where I'll just hit something or you know, whatever.
24:54
SPEAKER_02: It wasn't until I got married that I started actually voicing how I was feeling.
25:00
SPEAKER_02: Did did you find yourself uh on that road as far as communicating?
25:05
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, communicating back then was hard because, like I said, if I tried to say what I'm going through, it was always like for something.
25:14
SPEAKER_02: So they would they wouldn't understand that.
25:15
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, they wouldn't understand.
25:16
SPEAKER_00: Even if I tried to talk to my mom, she wasn't understanding that she wasn't getting where I was coming from.
25:22
SPEAKER_01: Okay.
25:23
SPEAKER_00: And she would help me with my schoolwork, she would help me try to get my grades, and it was like, I cannot do this bullshit.
25:31
SPEAKER_00: I don't want to do it.
25:33
SPEAKER_00: And I stayed on that, and it was like, you gotta do this, you're not gonna do this, you know.
25:38
SPEAKER_00: It's like just leave me alone.
25:41
SPEAKER_00: But every time I tried to explain this to her, it was like it wasn't getting through.
25:45
SPEAKER_00: So the only people I had to talk to were my were my friends, and they kind of understood, but also at the same time, they were doing their own thing.
25:53
SPEAKER_00: They were fixing and graduate, they were fixing to college, they were doing this and they're gonna do that.
25:58
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and there I was.
26:00
SPEAKER_00: At that moment, I just didn't know when the hell I was gonna be at.
26:03
SPEAKER_00: So I was chasing my dream to be a professional soccer player.
26:08
SPEAKER_00: I was chasing my dream.
26:09
SPEAKER_00: And to to them, they was like, there's no future in that.
26:15
SPEAKER_00: Maybe, maybe not, but I'm gonna do it anyways.
26:18
SPEAKER_01: Right.
26:18
SPEAKER_00: Music.
26:20
SPEAKER_00: You know, I wanna do this, I wanna do that.
26:22
SPEAKER_00: There's no future in that.
26:24
SPEAKER_00: Maybe, maybe not.
26:25
SPEAKER_00: Let me find out on my own.
26:26
SPEAKER_00: Let me grind out what I'm gonna do.
26:29
SPEAKER_00: If I fall on my face, let me fall on my face.
26:32
SPEAKER_00: But even with that, like I said, I went through that spell where it kind of let me do it, but then it was like I didn't have a lot of people to talk to about me.
26:43
SPEAKER_00: So it was I I was I I went through a lot of shit, and no one no one will ever know how deep I was and how bad I was about to fall.
26:51
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
26:52
SPEAKER_00: So it wasn't up until when I was like 26, 27 when I met my wife.
26:58
SPEAKER_00: And it was like she listened to what I had to say.
27:05
SPEAKER_00: She listened to where I was at and got me out of that.
27:10
SPEAKER_00: You know, and it's like like like this the post I made her is like, with you, I'm everything, without you, I'm nothing.
27:17
SPEAKER_00: But together, we're stronger.
27:21
SPEAKER_00: So when I met her, it was like she was this force, like was very blunt, very just like against the grain type thing.
27:30
SPEAKER_00: I was very like in my in my own shit.
27:33
SPEAKER_00: I was in my emotions, I was too emotional, I was too sensitive.
27:36
SPEAKER_00: Anything fucking hurt me, and she's like, me get the fuck out of that.
27:40
SPEAKER_00: And then the more is like she was like telling me like you are better than than where you were to where you are now.
27:49
SPEAKER_00: You're better than that, like get up and fucking move on.
27:54
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
27:54
SPEAKER_00: So with that, like people that we consider friends or family, I don't talk to you anymore.
28:02
SPEAKER_02: Wow.
28:03
SPEAKER_02: Wow.
28:04
SPEAKER_00: And I cut people off left and right.
28:06
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
28:06
SPEAKER_00: You know, because I don't got time for shit like that.
28:09
SPEAKER_00: You're gonna be one of my friends, be my be your friend, be your brother, be down, whatever, but don't don't talk shit.
28:16
SPEAKER_00: Don't make stupid gas comments.
28:19
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
28:19
SPEAKER_00: Because you know, that's like I call people like that, I call them shadows.
28:26
SPEAKER_00: Because they're fucking fake.
28:27
SPEAKER_00: You know, they want you, they want you there because of something, and then you know, but they want to take shots at you, like, oh that triggers you, that triggers you, this and this like it's like really, dude?
28:38
SPEAKER_00: Like, how old are you again?
28:40
SPEAKER_00: Like, you know, but I'll cut, I mean, and and I've done it.
28:43
SPEAKER_00: Where half the people that I used to talk to and kind of fuck with, I don't talk to them anymore.
28:49
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
28:49
SPEAKER_00: You know, that probably probably because of my fault.
28:52
SPEAKER_00: One of them.
28:53
SPEAKER_00: But you know, when when I came when I came back from from from jail, I I I apologize to all of them.
29:00
SPEAKER_00: I send messages.
29:03
SPEAKER_00: Sorry, I go, I don't expect you to forgive me, I don't expect you to be friends with me.
29:07
SPEAKER_00: I don't give a shit.
29:08
SPEAKER_00: I just have to tell you I'm sorry.
29:10
SPEAKER_00: What you want to do with that is what you want to do with that.
29:14
SPEAKER_00: After that, I don't care.
29:16
SPEAKER_01: Wow.
29:16
SPEAKER_00: Because that at that moment it was like I'm done doing this shit.
29:21
SPEAKER_00: Now I'm gonna fucking not even worry about it.
29:25
SPEAKER_00: So after that, I got literally got out of the music scene, I got out of all of it, and I stayed to myself.
29:32
SPEAKER_00: And that's that's been like literally been the best thing for me.
29:36
SPEAKER_00: Nice, yeah.
29:37
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that's awesome, man.
29:38
SPEAKER_02: Uh we were talking about that in the last podcast, like uh forgiving people.
29:42
SPEAKER_02: And you don't you can forgive them, but that doesn't mean you still have to be their friend, you know.
29:46
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, exactly.
29:47
SPEAKER_02: Like you said, uh yeah, whatever you want to do with it, you can do with it.
29:50
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and then from there you can choose to be either be around them more or not.
29:54
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, exactly, dude.
29:55
SPEAKER_00: You have the choice, yeah.
29:56
SPEAKER_00: So I mean that's why that's why that's why like I tell them, like I tell my my two boys, my sons, it was like it's like you know, you're gonna meet a lot of friends in high school.
30:05
SPEAKER_00: The ones are gonna be real cool with you, the ones are gonna be down for you at all costs, and then you're gonna have the ones who are just like the jokers, they wanna, you know, say shit, they want to get you in trouble, all this other crap.
30:18
SPEAKER_00: And seeing them grow up through elementary to junior high to high school, it reminded me of me, the way I was.
30:26

52:08
SPEAKER_00: You know, I keep up with them as much as I can, but I'm the type of person that like um I'm not I try to keep up with everybody, but like I got into this thing where it's like if you don't check up on me, like what am I gonna check up on you?
52:23
SPEAKER_00: Type thing.
52:23

53:25
SPEAKER_00: But like even like when my sister, she's got she went through a lot of different stuff, and I was there for we would talk, and then there it was again.
53:32
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, so I mean it's not like it's it's like a negative thing.

53:40
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I got you.
53:41
SPEAKER_00: It's just that, you know, we're brothers and sisters, I love them, but I'm doing, you know, I'm doing my shit.
53:46
