1:42.9

Yes, all right. Well, let's let's get to it. Pensacola Florida. Tell us about your upbringing man. It was it was it was pretty different type of enough bringing. You know, I grew up on a farm.

1:54.5

So I had the animals, you know, game cocks, you know, I was just one of those little kids that God kind of blessed early. You know, people always tell you that.

2:02.5

God prepares you for what for what role he got ahead, you know, and so me growing up watching the animals to talk me a lot of box about fighting.

2:10.5

So I would always taking in everything because my thing man, I ain't against nothing. Nobody really do really do. But everybody have their own way of how they find their way through life.

2:19.5

Right. One of my ways of doing nature. I had a I had a dogma pension once basically saved my life. You know, some world about to follow me and people won't believe the story. But the world I was small shouldn't be messed with the world anyway, but it's about to fall back on me.

2:33.5

The dog jumped up and put the wheel on the way on the wood. Help get the way back. From fall on with them. That's more loyal. If you would have fell on me, I'd have been done. Nobody would have got me there when they found me all day.

2:42.5

Because I'm not there to work like five o'clock in the afternoon. So nobody would find me. But anyway, you know, I always been Lord to the animal because what they do for me. So people always say, oh, you just no, no, no, it's not about that.

3:36.5

So that time not allowing me to be a kid kind of drove me to be a different animal. You feel me? So it made me a good animal, but a bad animal too because I grew up with a lion's mentality.

3:48.5

Once you leave the nest, you don't go back. Lion don't come back home. And the leader don't get their own that. That's how I was raised up. So I appreciate him for teaching me it that way.

4:00.5
