“ | I didn't know who was talking to. I said I would do what I had to to earn my keep, but I didn't know you. But I know... I know who I am. I know what happened and what's going on. I know. You didn't show me shit. You, you're dead. Everything that you were is dead. And it's... it's not over. I forgave her because... it's not over. It's not over... It's-- it's not over. I didn't turn away. I kept listening to the news so I could do what I could to help! I'm not giving up. You hear me I'm not giving up! People like me... people like me, they can live. Ain't nobody got to die today. | „ |
