My mom held a machete to my [music]
00:00:01
neck. He said, "You're not leaving." Cuz
00:00:02
I was 15. Home wasn't safe anymore. I
00:00:04
had my bags packed and I said, "Well,
00:00:06
mom, either you kill me now or I'm
00:00:07
going." And then her arm just dropped
00:00:09
and she just cried. [music] And I think
00:00:10
she cried because she knew that she had
00:00:11
failed. I don't believe she failed. I
00:00:13
try and believe that mom tried her best
00:00:15
with what she had, with what she knew.
