I don't hang around those people anymore. My gang is my second family. All my homeboys are like my blood. I trust them with my life and they trust me with theirs. For years that's how it's been.
Some people get into gangs because they think it is cool or because they want to impress somebody.
They are the ones who get punked by their rivals. Whatever your reason for being in a gang, someday you have to grow up and mature and decided if you're gonna bang for life. Or if you're gonna do something with your life, something good that will make you and your family proud. We don't have all of our lives to think about it. But we have a lot of time in here to think about it.
