0:00.0 | You know, there's a short life in the acting world. |
0:03.0 | What do you think that is, what the creative side is? |
0:05.0 | Well, because losing out money, you got to take drugs, you're going through so much shit to try and deal with life. |
0:14.0 | You are literally, it's an unhealthy space. |
0:17.0 | And so eventually you're going to go too far, you know. Who knows what happened to |
0:22.5 | Philip? Who knows what he had to do in order to get to where he was at? There's a lot of things |
0:28.1 | that people do that end up sitting and they can't get over it. And they got to keep getting high |
0:33.2 | hoping to get it out of their head, you know, but when you lose your man card, that's the only |
0:38.9 | thing I can think of. You lose your damn man card. What is that? What do you mean by that? |
0:43.7 | You give up your ability of your right to be in a man. A man don't take it. A man gives it. |

1:06.5 | for wanting to gain something. When you give up that man card right, you lose some spiritual |
1:11.8 | energy that has always been pushing through. Like if a woman gives up her womanly right, |
1:17.9 | of being a mother and taking care of her family and being the, do all those things. When you |
1:22.5 | give up those things, but when you give up your manhood, I've never seen somebody recover from it. That was all the |
1:30.9 | people that went to the puffy parties. That was all the people that did all those things thinking that |
1:35.2 | there was never going to be a consequence for what they were doing, get punked out and pimped out |
1:40.9 | by some over greater desire. You shouldn't have a greater desire than being a man. |
1:46.2 | So I believe that's a big problem with a lot of the actors out there because they get fluid. |
1:52.5 | And next thing you know, wants to go fluid, it's gone. You don't have any foundation to pull |
