When you try to figure it out, it's like, maybe I should.
18:57
So it's two things that you just said that I would never include in my life.
19:01
You said a sponsor, and then you say cut me off, right? Because now it's a level of external acceptance upon you being your real self so that you can continue to win it and feed your family.
19:11
So the minute that you got a sponsor, that's someone that you have to worry about censoring what you're saying, right? And then the minute that you worried about being cut off, then you obligated to somebody outside yourself.
19:22
So I always tell them, motherfucker, if you allow them to feed you, then you give them permission to starve you, right? So we all know that.
19:27
So like, for example, with me, like you say, it was a little bit different because I built my shit off of myself.
19:35
I hustled.

56 MINS LATER

75:17
Mm.
17:00
And that's, and that's it.
17:01
I mean, that's the ultimate goal for me.
17:02
So, like, I'm never...
17:04
I got lucky.
17:04
You know what I'm saying? The sense that I got lucky that I came from the streets because my only goal was to be legal.
17:09
I never had, I never fantasized about, like, being a college graduate or being, like, a Fortune 500 CEO.
17:15
My whole shit was like, yo, make enough money to get legal, and then when you get legal, figure it out.

1 HR LATER

77:36
Um, before we get out of here, can you break down the Seven Strings for them one more time?
