Produktbeschreibung

As I tell you my story based on true events, I fill in the blanks with my imagination. I use real-life situations in detail because I have been there. Maybe this story can change some young men or women's mind about something. This is real. These are the stages I have gone through. I have been there, and I have seen and done too much. It's only by the grace of God, Allah, or whatever you call him that I'm still here on earth to tell you this story. God has a plan for all of us; pay attention to the signs. I want to show that education is the most important thing. Learn today; earn tomorrow. Appreciate school, trades, and books. Everyone can be successful with legal hard work; we don't have to steal, rob, or sell drugs. And doing drugs will take our mind, body, money, and freedom if we're lucky; if not, it will take our lives. All we have to do is have goals and plans and stick with them through thick and thin. We have to try things; we have to be in it to win it.

Autorenporträt

I was born and raised in Brooklyn with both parents and both grandparents. My younger brother, Gary/Gamel; my elder brother, Yusuf; and I were tighter when we were younger. Maybe we are still tight in our own ways, but I don't know for sure. I was born in Kings County Hospital, lived in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn, until age six, and moved to Ebbets Field in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, until the age of twelve or thirteen. Then my parents bought a house in Martense Court, Flatbush, Brooklyn. That was when my life really changed.
