I'm like, "All right, you've got me
00:00:02
twisted. I'm not leaving my children
00:00:03
here with you." Something in me, whether
00:00:05
it was God talking to me or something, I
00:00:07
just remember that whole, "This is not
00:00:09
what I planned for your life. This is
00:00:10
not what you're meant to be. This is not
00:00:12
what you want your daughter to see what
00:00:15
love is and see how a man treats a
00:00:17
woman. This is not how you want your son
00:00:19
to grow up." And it was his little
00:00:21
brother that came through the door from
00:00:23
the liquor store just down the road,
00:00:25
heard all this cuz he had locked the
00:00:26
door and broke the door down. And then
00:00:28
they started scrapping it out. I ended
00:00:30
up taking the kids and leaving and going
00:00:32
to a friend's house. I'm forever in her
00:00:35
debt because if it wasn't for her, I
00:00:37
wouldn't have known how to survive.
