  SPEAKER_01: Ain't no way.
• 5:47
  SPEAKER_01: Ain't no way.
• 5:50
  SPEAKER_01: Hey, man, Johnny, has there ever been a time where you should have walked away versus trying to prove the point?
• 5:58
  SPEAKER_01: Bro, yeah.
• 5:59
  SPEAKER_01: And if so, could you recollect or let the people know?
• 6:01
  SPEAKER_01: Like, let's start off by giving a couple of examples of proving a point versus walking away when we should have just walked away.
• 6:12
  SPEAKER_01: You from that Greenwood.
• 6:13
  SPEAKER_01: I am from Greenwood.
• 6:15
  SPEAKER_01: There was this one time, like, where I felt like I wanted, I had to prove point versus walking away.
• 6:21
  SPEAKER_01: And um it was a fight I had got to, fight, fight I had gotten into when I stayed in Greenwood, South Carolina.
• 6:27
  SPEAKER_01: And um this fight was in Bird Street, man, and I felt like, you know, and it was something so um not sensitive, excuse me.
• 6:35
  SPEAKER_01: Something so small, bro, because people always would talk about me, like my weight size, stuff like that.
• 6:42
  SPEAKER_01: You know what I'm saying?
• 6:43
  SPEAKER_01: So even though I in the moments like that, bro, it's like words hurt, bro, but sometimes I believe, bro, that we can, instead of just like walking away from the situation, we let them words really scar us to the point that we want to put hands on people.
• 6:56
  SPEAKER_01: You know what I'm saying?
• 6:57
  SPEAKER_01: So it's like that's showing me right there, bro.
• 6:59
  SPEAKER_01: Like, I ain't have no self-control.
• 7:00
  SPEAKER_01: You know what I'm saying?
• 7:01
  SPEAKER_01: Ain't nothing worse than getting John, bro.
• 7:03
  SPEAKER_01: Everybody laughing at you.
• 7:04
  SPEAKER_01: And it was laughing at me, bro.
• 7:05
  SPEAKER_01: Picking at me up.
• 7:06
  SPEAKER_01: You know what they say.
• 7:08
  SPEAKER_01: Hey, hey, kids, you're a fat.
• 7:10
  SPEAKER_00: You're a fat.
• 7:12
  SPEAKER_00: You know what I'm saying?
• 7:12
  SPEAKER_00: You're a fat.
• 7:13
  SPEAKER_00: You know what I'm saying?
• 7:14
  SPEAKER_00: You're a fat.
• 7:15
  SPEAKER_00: You know what I'm saying?
• 7:16
  SPEAKER_01: You know, the kids joining me and stuff like that, bro.
• 7:19
  SPEAKER_01: So it's just like instead, bro, I like picked up this big old stick, hit this hit this boy in the head.
• 7:26
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 7:26
  SPEAKER_01: This boy bleeding.
• 7:28
  SPEAKER_01: You know what I'm saying?
• 7:29
  SPEAKER_01: Now what age was this?
• 7:30
  SPEAKER_01: Bro, it had to be like eight or nine, maybe.
• 7:32
  SPEAKER_01: And you remember that?
• 7:33
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I remember.
• 7:37
  SPEAKER_01: Eight and nine years old, boy.
• 7:39
  SPEAKER_01: Like, so I I knew in that moment, bro, when you look back at the situation, bro, I don't hurt this kid.
• 7:43
  SPEAKER_01: This kid got to go to the hospital.
• 7:44
  SPEAKER_01: You know, my sister done got my back, so they don't join on other kids out there.
• 7:47
  SPEAKER_01: So we got that, we got that thumping.
• 7:49
  SPEAKER_01: You know what I'm saying?
• 7:50
  SPEAKER_01: But now, but now I have to realize, bro, that my actions not only affected me, but my actions got other people in trouble too.
• 7:57
  SPEAKER_01: Come on, and I think a lot of times, bro, like we don't think about we don't think about that when we when we react.
• 8:03
  SPEAKER_01: How is this gonna hurt my family?
• 8:05
  SPEAKER_01: How is this gonna, you know what I'm saying?

• 8:15
  SPEAKER_01: So it's like they they suffering because I'm suffering.
• 8:17
  SPEAKER_01: When I could have just been like, you know what?
• 8:19

• 8:29
  SPEAKER_01: You know what I'm saying?
• 8:30
  SPEAKER_01: So it's like when they said all that, bro, I should, I should've, I should have taken in, bro, and turned the other cheek, bro, and walked away.
• 8:36
  SPEAKER_01: Cause it ain't, it went worth it.
• 8:38

  SPEAKER_01: And you that's that's that's what I was wanting to get to.
• 8:43
  SPEAKER_01: It ain't worth it.

• 8:45
  SPEAKER_01: Look at somebody at home right now and tell them, it ain't worth it.
