Shane, I thought that boy went to
college. You still dealing with him?

Look, that boy ain't never been up to no
good.

I don't trust him.

We've been cool since the 10th grade.

Yeah, he went to college for a little
bit, but college ain't for everybody.

Now, you know you sound like a damn
light -skinned fool.

College ain't for everybody?

You mean getting a free education while

everybody?

It's not like he made a bad mistake

I ain't even tripping, though. Shit, she
let me do what I do.

Smart as long.

Hey, but I'm trying to get like you.

All right, you got my back.

I figure I'm just trying to make shit a
shake.

Last thing I need is that lady asking me
for something I ain't got to give her.

For shit's sake.

Come on, man.

We got to handle our business all the
time.

In fact, it wasn't like yesterday. It
was just Friday night, man.

Doing touchdowns.

Chili just came with our name.

My name, anyway.

Oh, yeah, bro. You just tried to get off
on that last part.

You do know I'm the one with the college
doing that shit, right?

Yeah. How you back in this,
motherfucker?

Bro, this shit was too slow, nigga.

Don't let this shit hold me back. I got
a better plan.

What was bigger than the dreams we had
when we was kids, though?

What was bigger than the NFL?

Bro, this shit ain't really cracked out
what it's supposed to be.

They already know what they want. Shit,
I'd rather put my feet on my own.

I feel it, bro.

We was just kids, man.

That was fun.

This shit was like corporate America.

Facts. Just like these streets.

I went from catching touchdowns to
catching bodies.

Bae, give me that bottle.

What that bitch want?

What's wrong with you?

What you thinking about?

Nothing.

Nothing, just got some shit on my mind.

I'm good, though.

Okay. I'm just saying, out of it.

You need something from me?

Nah, nah, nah. I'm cool.

Okay.

Look.

Don't know what I'm doing out there.

Trying to stay level -headed right now.

Mm -hmm.

a lot of dumb shit with my cousin.

Who? Bobby?

Yeah.

What the fuck that nigga do?

He on that flaky shit again?

He just took a loss.

And I personally like the way he
handling that shit.

Because they're too cool about it.

Some bad dope came in?

Nah. Somebody hit the spot.

Damn.

Shit. Took a couple bands. I'm on the
staff.

Nothing major.

But that money?

That money was for the running.

Well, that sounds like an easy fix. What
you need me to do, bust a move?

Nah, babe, it's not like that.

I don't like the fact that he wouldn't
ruin a relationship with these people.

See, you know me.

I like to pay in full and in time.

Yeah, so basically you just feel like he
way too comfortable.

Too comfortable.

Too comfortable. And that shit don't
work for me.

You know, I need that shit to stay
copious. That it.

I know you pressed him about it, so
what'd he say? Nothing.

You know how Bobby frees up when I apply
pressure?

Yeah.

Well, okay, look.

I don't like you just gonna have to do
that shit for him.

You hold his hand, as usual.

I'll be right back.

You check on something.

Okay.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

We'll be right back.

I'm on fire like water on plugs.

Killing these niggas like I don't
respect. I fuck in the bus.

I pull on the block, load up the clock,
dot on the I.

Sutter like rock, none of you pop,
apparently not.

I'm on fire like water on plugs.

I cut them. I might run them off.

Pull up with the heater and a two
-seater.

Left the bitch alone and I really didn't
need her.

Pull up with the sticks, Robin, Paul,
and Peter.

Met a bad bitch, I told her nice to meet
you.

I'm getting real high like a spade.

Hey, little homie, take this bag around
back for me.

Hey, and make sure you put that lock
back on the gate.

All right, for sure.

Your

call

has been forwarded to an automated...
The fuck is Mike?

I'm going to need you to drive today. I
don't know where the fuck Mike at.

I'll be home. You know I'm in here on
the bed.

I know, I know, I know, I know you know.

I know, I know, I know, I know you know.

I know, I know, I know, I know you know.
I know, I know, I know, I know you

know.

Hey, stranger.

Where you been?

I've been around.

What you up to today?

Not much. Just finishing up some
studying right now.

I'm actually getting ready to head out
to my photo shoot.

You should come see me model.

I think you'll like that.

I will come today, but I got to meet my
cuz later.

Got to discuss a few things I need to
get done.

I know.

I know. I just...

I want to start bringing you into my
world, if you let me.

So, what are you doing tomorrow?

I'm not sure yet.

Do you want to maybe do brunch?

I think I could punch you into my
schedule for a brunch date.

Well, I feel so honored that you can
find time for little old me.

Alrighty, love.

I'm about to head out.

I'll talk to you later, okay?

Okay, I will.

Later.

Yo, cuz, where you at?

Hey, meet me at the spot.

Might have pulled up.

You ready to work? I'm always ready to
grade. What you got for me today?

I got some different looks on the rack
today.

I wanted to try a different style, so
let me know what color you choose so I

just light it for you. Okay, that's
fine.

Can we do this today?

Of course. I know you too well. I knew
you was going to pick that one.

But yeah, take your time, though. I'm
going to get everything set up for you.

Okay.

Keep a couple models, they never break.

She feeling my vibe, I'm really the man
and the tonic on faith.

I know that they hate the feeling of me.

I know that they doubted I waited my
time and I had to be patient.

Pitch up the pace, you're talking about
trains, I'm living out mine.

Riding the wave, counting up green, I'm
feeling my time.

I come from the bottom, cuts on the
couch and I slip on the floor.

All right.

There you go.

Raise your chin a little higher for me.

Like that. You know something I

noticed, though?

What? You don't post nothing on social
media platforms.

Why do you say that?

Well, I think that's why you're not
getting the traffic that you deserve.

I mean, we've been working for a while
now.

I always thought you could take it to
another level.

I mean, you know I've got a million
things going on. I'm trying to finish

and I'm trying to build this business,
but I guess I can post more on social

media. Listen, you need to stop doing
what you're doing.

You know, just incorporate posting in
your daily life.

Hold on a second.

Here, I want you to take this, and I
want you to start vlogging your life.

You bring the people into your world.

Y 'all love that.

That way, you aren't changing anything
you do every day.

You just filming your life.

I know it's not your usual, but trust
me.

But do you think that's a good idea?

I feel like my life is pretty boring. I
don't do anything that people actually

find interesting.

Ava, trust me.

Y 'all love it.

Look, they didn't know you're human,
too.

I mean, your social media is all
professional and everything, but it's

the authenticity.

Okay. I'll do it.

It won't hurt.

I think you'll like it, though.

Look, it's good that we're working, but
I need you to be posting two, three

times a day.

All right, Frank.

You know I trust you. You've never seen
me wrong.

I just want to see you win.

She feeling my vibe. I'm really the man
in the tonic on faith.

I know that the hate, the feeling of
mate.

I know that it doubted. I waited my time
and I had to be patient.

What you come up with?

What's the plan?

What you mean, cuz?

I told you we good.

You made that man leave easy.

If not, you don't mind waiting an extra
week for a couple bands.

Been solid in this shit, bro.

Dang trippin'. You pressed the issue to
grab Mike.

That could've been anybody in the spot.

Cut it to the ball.

It ain't about the money.

I need for you to see the bigger
picture.

We're trying to expand, cuz.

We need to keep this trust.

And we got demand respect in the hood.

That relationship is my relationship.

Like I said before, we good.

Demand respect.

We ain't have no problems in the hood,
bruh.

We been petty -beating with Mike and
Marcus since we was kids.

It ain't that serious, cuz.

Well, it's that serious now.

You gotta grow up that child's flame of
mind, cuz.

They grown man business or not.

You gonna fuck around and get me killed
being naive.

Childish.

Naive. Yeah.

I'm a grown ass man, cuz.

Remember, I put this shit together.

I put you in position.

You made your statement last night.

You got to live with that.

So what the fuck you trying to say,
Bobby?

Look, we're getting to the end, cuz.

I ain't tripping.

But you press play.

So don't tell me how I'm even gonna get
you killed.

You ain't making this shit over and
over.

Somebody got her so hard.

Cuz, you keep that dope coming in.

She don't speak or I don't have no
business in the streets.

Whatever, man.

Listen. Cuz.

We started this shit way back.

Just me and you.

Trying to survive.

Young boys, trying to fill them empty
shoes.

Trying to be the man of the house.

She said, just remember, grandma raised
me.

Because I ain't have my mama either.

You and I, and it's the only family I
got since grandma died.

We ain't got to agree.

We family.

Yeah, we family.

That'll never change.

But last night did happen.

Eventually, we're going to get out.

I doubt anybody connected back to us.

Like you said, it ain't never been that
serious.

But I do think we need to be a little
bit more proactive.

More proactive?

What you mean?

I'm just saying.

I got my eyes and ears for the street.
If anybody start moving active for me, I

can't just sit back and see what
happens, because... That'd be fucking...

Constantine at all times.

What are you doing?

Are we drinking this early?

I mean, we could drink if you want.

I ain't really hungry right now.

What's wrong, Bobby?

I know you haven't eaten.

Not at all.

I just don't really have much of an
appetite right now.

Not really.

How did it go with your cousin
yesterday?

I mean, everything cool.

We talked.

Well, I guess it did.

Oh, you missed it.

Yesterday was so amazing.

When my photographer sends me the
photos, I definitely want you to check

out.

Make sure I see them before the world
does.

That's why you should have been there.

But I got you.

My mister seems to believe I could
really do some good things.

Really? Yes.

He's encouraging me to post more and to
build my brand. I know you have a

business mind, so I definitely need your
help.

He actually...

He gave me this camera, and he told me
to start vlogging, but I don't know,

between school and trying to build this
business, I already have enough on my

plate.

Hmm.

I never played with one of these before.

Look at you, looking like a little hood
photographer.

Should I pose?

Well, I guess.

It's dope.

I really can see myself getting one.

I mean, you can hold on to this one for
a few days and kind of learn how it

works. Maybe you can help me with my
blog.

Hmm.

Okay. I mean, it's like I can have fun
with it, but my lifestyle

won't allow me to have leisure time for
this.

I know, but I want you to start thinking
about your future.

That lifestyle.

It's definitely not going to last
forever, and I know you're smart enough

know that.

That's why I always invite you to come
see what I do.

I want to start putting you in
environments that I know you'll thrive

around people that'll help direct you on
the right path.

For me, that was looking at my hands.

What's good, family?

Where your cousin at?

Family.

Family where?

You tell me. I ain't talk to him all
day.

Interesting.

I talked to him the other day, and he
told me that I was supposed to be moving

around today.

Is that right?

Yeah.

I would, though.

Definitely be seeing you around.

Oh, my gosh. These are amazing.

I told you. I told you. I knew you were
going to like the look, and you killed

it. We make magic every single time.

Bobby, hey.

You came.

Man of my word.

I hear you. I'm just happy to see you
here, that's all.

What's up, man?

What's up?

So you're the mystery man taking all of
his time?

Nice to meet you, bro.

I guess.

Bobby, have a seat. I want you to see
the pictures I was telling you about.

Man, that's dope.

I like those.

I knew you would like them.

Greg directed the shots, and he chose
outfits.

He's amazing.

He's the person I told you that's been
motivating me to take things to the next

level.

Greg? This is Bobby.

I've been so anxious for you to meet.
Nice to meet you, bro.

Same here.

Oh, yeah. And Bobby fell in love with
the camera you gave me.

I think I might have a future
photographer on my hands.

Oh, yeah?

Mm -hmm.

You're into photography?

I mean, I would have said all that.

I've played with the camera a few times.

I like the way it works.

Most def, most def.

You should stop by the studio more, man.
I can show you what I do.

Yes. I personally would love that.

Greg's been a great mentor to me, not
just as a model, but as an entrepreneur

well.

You know, I think most people only see
me as a photographer, man, but I think

I'm more than that.

You know, I create images that build a
brand for people and their business too.

I find myself helping with branding and
marketing.

I've been doing it so long, I probably
helped start a business.

Yeah, well, you've definitely been an
inspiration to me. And Bobby?

He's so talented. I just want to give
him an environment to where you know He

can showcase his capabilities Where you
from?

On the west side.

Okay. All right. I'm a little hill baby
myself man. I'm from East Atlanta born

and raised Yeah, I know what it's like
coming from a place like that.

I Can't help you No doubt It's like I
like the camera I

don't know if I have the time

for it, but I want something different
in my life, you know?

Nah, nah, I understand, man.

I understand.

You know, I remember coming from a place
like that, you know?

Not knowing what move to make, but
wanting a better life.

But yeah, man, if you're as talented as
Ava says you are, the sky's the limit,

you know?

You just gotta want it bad enough.

Well, I know you have clients coming in.
I just wanted to properly introduce you

two. Hey, man.

Was that a nice meeting you, bro?

Hope to see more of you.

Look forward to see what the future
holds for you, bro.

I think you will.

I agree.

Bobby, you have so much potential, and I
want to see you prove that you're more

than what this world believes you are.

And I know you want better for yourself,
but you've got to let go of those

things and those people and start
thinking about your future.

And Greg, Greg can really help you with
that.

He can relate to where you're coming
from, and he understands what you all

to go through to get to where you want
to be.

I've listened to him for years and I
think he'd be very beneficial for you as

well.

I just want you to be great.

What the fuck hanging out on the phone,
man?

I don't know.

I think I want to try this photography
thing and see where it takes me.

I feel like it could lead me to other
places, you know?

Maybe you should.

You never know.

Cuz, you never answer your phone.

Hey, how you doing?

I'm Cousin Lake.

Big Cuz yet, huh?

Hey, but it's my crazy -ass cousin Lake.

Without Mike, he'd be wide open.

I say we catch him leaving. Wait, wait,

heat on him?

I couldn't even get a call back from
that baseball shit.

Well, I started fucking around.

And I had to run my bag up.

See, that's what I'm trying to do.

I'm trying to get my feet wet, man. Get
my ass on the sun.

I hear you.

I can respect it.

Man, you always have done your thing
back in school.

Just never really crossed that line with
you. I always knew how you felt about

my boy.

Yeah, your boy Bobby.

Them niggas don't fuck with me at all.

That's why I stay focused, though.

Just to put my mind on my paper, you
dig?

Shit, ain't nothing wrong with that.

Bobby cool, though.

Never really fuck with a late nigga like
that, though.

Dude, I always been on some fuck shit.

All them niggas the same to me.

Family gonna ride together regardless.

Yeah, I can see that.

I just know Bobby look better though.

Bobby cool, man. I fuck with him. I
don't really be on no extra shit. That's

I fuck with him.

Other than that, probably will be on the
same shit.

I hear you.

Them niggas got going on anyway.

I've been seeing Lake rolling through
the hood like he's going to smoke or

something.

Bro, I have no idea for real, for real.

He don't buy me on some of the cool
shit, but other than that, I try to mind

business.

Tell me something, though.

How can I get a bag or two?

No, they don't. They do, but I ain't
really fucking with Bobby on the street

shit.

Back in the hood.

I really need to get back on my feet,
bro.

I don't know about all that, bro.

I mean, you cool and all. We ain't never
had no issues.

But a friend of everybody is a friend of
nobody.

You dig?

Pick a side, nigga.

Man, Bobby cool, man, like I said.

But it ain't like that.

Bro, I... I need some money.

And I ain't getting wrapped up in shit
like got going on.

To be honest, fuck them.

I feel.

But I'm just trying to get my hands on
them so I can get out of the way.

Let's see.

But keep them niggas out of my lane and
out of my business.

Gotcha.

Fuck out of my house.

Fuck up, nigga.

What the hell?

What up, Brody?

I saw you crying, bro. You good?

Yeah, I'm good, bro.

This actually happened with my lady girl
earlier. I was trying to make sure I

wasn't tripping.

Some shit like what, bro?

You know how cunts get.

She's been tripping out lately.

That cunt's been on edge.

Yeah, I already know how it get.

You gotta be more careful, bro.

Look.

Better keep my distance. You already
know that, though.

I already know, bro.

I've always been able to keep him cool,
but lately, he doesn't listen to me

either.

He's been the hothead since he was a
kid, but it's like I try my best to keep

him out of this bullshit.

I don't feel like he's listening right
now.

I figure where this shit might lead to,
bro.

Just make sure you watch yourself, bro.

You got it. Too much going on to get
your ass the fuck around with them,

or not, bro.

Nah, for real.

Real talk.

We been locked in since kids.

Your family and I hate for them to feel
like I turned his back on them, but like

you said, cousin or not, I can't get
fucked up in no bullshit.

Bro, fuck them.

You gotta look out for you.

Fuck that family shit.

Other than that, though, everything else
been cool, though, right?

Yeah, everything good.

Just trying to take this shit to another
level.

I feel that.

I'm on the same shit, bro.

Ever since I got back to the hood, man.

This side shit ain't been cutting it for
me, though.

I don't know what I'm thinking about
getting with you.

I mean, I know you said you want to let
y 'all get a trial or operation going

on, but...

You know, you my day one.

You trying to jump in the game late,
ain't you, bro?

See how this shit doing for me.

This shit crazy.

I've been looking to switch it on
myself.

Shit.

Like I ain't got the choice, man. It's
like the... It's like the wires starting

to close in on me.

I feel like if I don't figure something
out soon, shit, it might be too late.

I know shit been crazy for you, bro.

I feel like that's because you been...

Pleasing your loyalty to a selfish
motherfucker only looking out for

Bro, at the bare minimum, bro, you can
help put me on my feet, bro.

Pleasing my loyalty.

You might even be a loose cannon, but
you always have my back, so I ain't even

gonna say all that.

But for sure, you know I'll fuck with
you.

I got your back.

Just get with me later, though.

So, look, bro, I ain't mean no
disrespect about it.

I was just saying.

She hit my line, though. Get me posted.

Who was that?

My date went home and said he was
calling me back from yesterday.

I don't really like that conversation.

It sounds like I heard an ulterior
motive.

Just be careful.

I don't think it's like that.

He's been looking out for me, you know?

I know he always had this problem with
his leg, but it is what it is.

I don't know.

I hear you, but sometimes you have to
trust a female's intuition, and it

like it followed up with the request.

Maybe you know him better than I do, but
it just doesn't sit well with me.

I think he in a tough spot. He just came
to who he thought he could count on.

Perfect.

I got you.

How long does all of this last?

What do you mean?

I mean all of this.

How long does it last?

I ask because you know I've been
standing by your side since high school.

I've seen the good, the bad, the ups,
the downs, and the ugly.

I just been thinking.

When and how do we move forward?

What's next for us?

Are you pregnant?

Boy, what?

No.

I'm tripping.

I'm serious, though.

We ain't getting no younger, and I'm
starting to want something different.

I mean, we live our best for the most
part.

We go where we want.

Do what we want. Eat what we want.

But what's next?

What's next?

I don't know what's next, to be honest.

I know I can trust that you all will be
by my side.

I know I'm going to always do what I
need for us to survive.

Baby, I know what I want.

Even if I'm just still trying to figure
it out, you know?

Look, I'm not saying go get a corporate
job and wear a suit and tie.

That's OD.

But I do want to stay with him.

I want kids one day.

I want a better environment.

Me too.

Baby, look, I'm done. I got it.

You know I'm thinking about my ex.

I believe in you.

I just want you to know what I mean.

Baby, I got you.

I promised you everything would be how
it's supposed to be.

And I know you got my back.

Yeah, what up?

All right.

Thanks for being with us.

Oh, nah.

I know I ain't seeing what I think I'm
seeing.

Oh, he don't have to see me.

What the fuck you mean with this clown?

I think I got a plan that could work for
everybody.

A plan.

For everybody.

You ain't putting outsides in the
business.

What you talking about?

Cause you been pressed by making that
money back.

Say you need to get on his feet.

I figure we put some work in his hands,
we can move that shit a lot faster.

Think about it.

Pressed?

Cause you tripping.

You putting outsides in the business?

What the fuck going on, Bobby?

Me and Shane been rocking since high
school.

You don't need the trip, cuz.

I know y 'all got tension or whatever,
but the same way you got my back is the

same way he got my back.

Think about it.

She could work for everybody.

Bobby, Bobby, Bobby, Bobby. Got your
back?

You my cousin.

That's just your home.

Cuz you wild.

You wild.

I know we family, but you've been moving
reckless.

I told you.

I'm not going to let you put my life on
the line because you've got a good

heart.

I can imagine you not knowing how to
move because it's your family.

But his energy, his energy is starting
to feel real dangerous, bro.

I could be wrong, but I feel like if you
don't stop making your niggas move,

he's going to put you in a fucked up
situation.

Look, I get it, bro. You want his
blessing.

Dude don't give a fuck about what you're
trying to do.

Nigga's trying to control shit, but the
shit ain't going down like that.

Now I've been kicking her with a shorty.

She's trying to put me on a different
wave.

So I've been thinking about switching my
situation.

It's like she put the camera in my hand,
bro.

Now all I can think about is all these
different possibilities.

All the ways to make money.

Change the narrative, bro.

Let me help you run out the money you
need so you can focus on what you really

want to focus on.

You're not going to be able to do that
with Lake.

I can handle the lake side of the
operation.

All I need you to do is connect me with
your people, then you can leave on the

up.

You just need somebody you can trust.

Lakes starting to sound more like a
threatening family to me.

And if you really want to lead a gang,
you got to be able to do that without

getting sucked back into it.

Everybody's not looking out for your
best interest.

At least like I am.

So what are you thinking?

I don't know.

Maybe we can do this.

Or maybe we can do this.

I feel like any of them will work.

You seem distracted, Ava. What's on your
mind?

I don't know, honestly.

Bobby, he has so much going on, and
sometimes I fear the worst.

Well, you know what comes with a
lifestyle he chooses.

He knew what he was signing up for.

I know, but sometimes I fear that his
loyalty is going to lead to his death or

a life in prison.

I understand how you feel, but he has to
see the bigger picture.

These are decisions he has to make.

I came from that same type of
environment.

You know that.

A random street.

I got comfortable taking a riff.

None to all the violence.

And it gets to the point where it's
almost uncomfortable to lead a gang.

You find so much peace in the chaos, you
don't even realize the damage it's

doing to your people, to yourself.

Bobby has to learn to love himself in a
way where he makes decisions for his

longevity and not just his survival.

That dollar bill is going to mean
addiction.

Worse than the drugs you be selling.

But Bobby, he has such a good heart.

And I don't think the people around him
understand that.

I mean, maybe they do and just choose to
take it for granted out of greed and

selfishness. It's all selfishness.

All of it.

That greed, that greed is what keeps
them obedient.

He's feeling that obedience with his
loyalty.

They all blind to that cycle of poverty.

Numb to the murder and the time behind
bars.

Those things are greater.

I might be a little bit biased, but
Bobby has so much potential.

And I know that if he put his mind to
it, he can overcome the same way you

Like I said, that's his choice.

I made my choice because I believed in
me.

It won't be easy, and there will be
times where it will feel easier to go

to what he knows, but he has to believe
it's worth it.

Listen, Abel, your job is to stay
focused.

You cannot make that decision for him.

He has to see the value.

He has to move different

Hello

Bobby I'm working right now.

I'll talk to you later If

he truly cares if he truly cares he'll
understand

Ava, it is not your job to pull him up.

It's his job to catch up.

You want a man that's eventually going
to leave the home, right?

You can't do that by dragging him alone.

Give him some time to figure this out.

And if he... If he doesn't...

Then it's time for you to move on.

Okay.

Knocking on my door like that.

No, I didn't, T .T. Look,

I'm going through this week, though.

Well, why are you around here, baby?
Bobby's not here.

You okay?

Yeah. Yeah, I'm okay, T .T. I just got a
lot on my mind.

I just can't live with it.

Now, I understand ripping around your
cheek would drive a person crazy.

Well, what's on your mind?

I, uh, teacher, well, teacher tell me,
like, how would you feel somebody you

depended on and trusted started making
decisions that impacted you without you?

I got a friend, he going through some
similar stuff, and it's been on my head

ever since.

A friend, huh?

Well, how's that friend talk to the
person?

I mean, have there been any open
dialogue?

People do not understand that a simple
conversation is always the cure for

conflict.

I don't think there's no more room for
talking at this point.

Honestly, I feel like everybody's
looking out for themselves.

Baby, some people don't understand that
vulnerability is the key.

I mean, we put our armor on in fear.

But we refuse to take the armor off out
of fear.

I mean, friends and family are never,
and I mean never, worthy of the

that we be choosing to make.

Yeah, you're right.

But you know I love you.

And I mean, even through all the shit
that I know you be going through, I know

your heart is pure, baby.

You got my blood running through you.

I can see the good in you, even when you
don't see it in yourself.

But just remember, what is important is
family.

It's cold out here in this world.

All right?

All right. All right, baby.

I need you to get your damn key.

Okay? Keep coming over here banging on
my damn door. Don't make me shoot you,

boy. I don't do that. All right. Now, be
careful out here in these streets, all

right? Yes, ma 'am. All right.

What's up, Mom?

You know, Lake just came by.

Lake?

Mom, let me call you right back.

Hey, bro.

Lake just stopped by.

I think he's trying to send a message.

Shit.

Sounds like a threat to me.

I think we need to start considering our
options.

That'll give us the opportunity to run
up the money, establish a new operation

without Lake getting in the way.

Bro, I know you ain't thinking about
setting up my cousin.

It ain't even going down like that.

Bro, Lake making his own decisions, so
whatever happens between them two, that

shit is out of our hands, bro.

Nigga, you need to focus on the end
goal.

You're thinking about other shit.

Yo. Who this?

Lake.

What's poppin'? It's Shane.

Man, I had to reach out, man, because I
felt like I was the reason y 'all had

that cuff.

You know, I've been back in the hood for
a little minute, man, trying to get

some motion going, so I asked Bobby to
help me get on my feet, and he told me

that y 'all took a loss.

Y 'all supposed to say y 'all been
having friction.

I don't know, Lake.

trust if you ask me.

But I felt like it'll be a good
opportunity for all of us if y 'all plug

Look, I don't know if you know or not,
but Bobby's trying to focus on his

photography, so we agreed that I could
take the operation so he could walk

What? What the fuck you just say?

Listen, bro.

Look, I see what Bobby was talking
about. You don't like to listen for

Look, bro, I ain't trying to cut you
out. That's why I'm calling.

When we get the business up and running,
shit, I want you to come work for me.

I got you a supervisor position.

Got me fucked up, Shane.

That's all you want to hang up and shit.

Damn, I forgot to get that nigga's t
-shirt size.

Yeah, I'll text him. Think he wear it
large.

Or it could be a meeting.

Yeah, I'll just text him.

Fuck this nigga get my number.

What

the

fuck you doing, Bobby?

You put motherfuckers in play?

We built this shit.

We.

You ain't building shit on yourself.

I need that contact tonight.

The fuck are you talking about, cuz?

What the fuck, Mr. King? Fuck all that.

Shut the meeting up, cuz.

You're my fucking family.

I don't know what the fuck you on right
now, but you're tripping.

Listen, cuz.

Being tripped by your decision for
wanting a better life.

Look, we all want that shit.

But you not fucking put my life on the
line for your friend.

This business shit deep in the neck.

It's sick to me.

You're my fucking brother.

I'll never put your life in fucking
danger.

But you're tweaking right now.

Set the fucking meeting up.

Hey man, how did you forget to put the
lock on the gate?

I did.

I used Benny to get that thing fixed.

It's good, bro.

It's good.

What can I do for you today, my guy?

Look, I was just wondering if you put
any thoughts on what I asked you about.

Like I said, I'm trying to get back on
my feet, bro.

See where I can help you.

Help?

You need my help.

You can't help my situation.

No doubt.

Look, I'm trying to be disrespectful,
bro. No shit like that.

Just trying to show you I'm serious
about this shit.

Mikey. I ain't feeling it.

The fuck is you asking about Mike for?

Hey, I'm just asking, homie.

You normally disappear for this long?

Look, I ain't trying to get any out of
business, bro.

I'm just asking.

I'll be real with you, though.

Starting to smell bad, Blake.

Blake and Bobby got robbed a few days
ago, man.

They's been tripping out.

I heard they ought to plug big time,
too.

That's what I'm saying is, you need to
put something in the streets.

Late

last

night, the authorities... discovered a
man who was shot and killed in an

abandoned warehouse near the West End.
It has been reported that the body has

been there nearly a week and has been
identified as Michael Turner.

No other information has been released,
but they seem to be working to uncover

more details.

Hey, Bobby.

Did you hear about the body they found
in an abandoned warehouse not too far

from you?

I think they said his name is Michael
Turner.

I'm not sure if you knew him or not, but
it caught my attention this morning and

I thought I'd check on you.

I want to apologize for how I rushed you
off the phone the other day.

I have a lot going on and I've just been
feeling a lot of pressure.

I know that isn't an excuse, but...

I don't want it to cause any problems
between us.

I miss you, and I hope you forgive me.

Well, I'm about to get my day started.

Give me a call whenever you can.

Or maybe I'll try again later.

Be safe, Bobby.

Did you hear about the body they found
in the abandoned warehouse not too far

from you?

I think they said his name is Michael
Turner.

I'm not sure if you knew him or not, but
you caught my attention this morning

and I thought I'd check on you.

I want to apologize for how I rushed you
off the phone the other day.

You hurt?

Yeah.

Fuck.

Yo.

Bro, you heard they done found Mike dead
at the warehouse?

Nah, where you hear that at?

What? Nigga, the whole hood talking
about this shit.

I ain't gonna lie here, Marcus don't go.

He trying to down something, too.

You better be careful out there.

For sure.

For sure.

Man, what do you say?

Hold on, bro.

Hood getting hot, bro.

Think we need to slow down on this game
plan for a second.

With Mike getting killed, I don't know
who is who.

I don't see how that affects what we got
going on, bro.

Actually... Actually, that works out in
our favor.

Because now Margaret's going to try to
target Lake.

Yeah.

I can't let that shit go down, bro.

Bro. It ain't worth it.

Bro, I think you just need to focus on
your little camera shit.

Nigga, I told you.

I'll handle the Lake situation.

Shit, I already been working on Marcus.

I already dropped the bug in his ear.

I got his trust.

So when Lake is out the way, I team up
with Marcus, we can eliminate

competition.

Bro, you safe.

I just need you to make this
motherfucking meeting happen and stay

the way.

If Marcus killed late, you think he
gonna feel comfortable with me walking

around?

No. He gonna want me dead, too. Nigga
wants to deal with the kid, and I got

Marcus' operation under my control?

Shit, I'll kill Marcus myself.

Like I said,

you just stay out the way.

You ain't listening, bro.

Operation?

Your control.

I thought you just said you needed to
get on your feet.

Sound like you got a plan for power.

Well, unlike you.

I actually understand this shit a little
better.

You can't halfway do this shit.

There ain't no innocent side.

Bullets fly and motherfuckers get
killed, niggas. It's the street.

You've been trying to be a good guy in a
dirty game, and you wonder why you're

in this fucked up situation.

You need to sit back and let bosses
talk.

Or get caught up in the middle.

Bruh, I still see you as a friend.

But only you can keep that shit this
way.

You know what I need.

Y 'all know what it is.

Anybody look like they have something to
do with that shit.

Dead.

Understood?

Got you big, honey.

You already know I'm on go.

The fuck you want?

Hey, all them little mind games you're
playing?

Go get you fucked up.

I ain't on no bullshit, Marcus.

Come on, bro, you know I fuck with
Chyna.

I heard they confirmed what I thought
about Mike, so I pulled up on Lake and

Bobby's to see if I could get some more
info.

Bobby's now lost, but I definitely feel
like Lake has something to do with this

shit.

Bro, he told me himself he's gonna take
over Bobby's operation and implied he's

looking to get rid of our competition.

I'll follow him out. to find out what
you need to know and get to.

I just want your blessing, bro.

To you.

Hey, when you hear something, run that
shit back to me.

Bro.

Yo. Hey, OJ.

A lot been going on in the hood right
now, man.

It's time to meet my cousin Lake, just
in case something happened to me.

That way we can keep the operation
running.

Also, we had a little situation.

A little short on the bread, but I want
to see what I got in good faith.

A little short?

All right.

I'm going to send my driver.

Just make sure he know the rule.

All right?

Along.

Yo, I set up the meeting.

Tomorrow at noon.

Hey, cuz, come by yourself.

Just take them in the bag, let them lead
the conversation.

You ain't got to prove yourself, cuz.

I'll hit you tomorrow with the details
on the location.

Yo

I'm late.

So are you the cousin?

Yeah, that's me.

Let's go out there?

Yeah, yeah, of course.

Yeah, that's all, dude. Have a good day.

Nice car you got.

at 9 by midnight.

I'm assuming you can understand how
critical it is that you cooperate.

I told you.

I told you you could trust me.

We got like ass up out of here and we
came up on the bag.

What?

Man,

why you bitch ass need to move? I don't
move.

Fuck this.

You niggas kill my drive.

Fuck is this nigga?

Who am I?

Listen, Cole.

Bobby's best friend.

I was just the one working to help
Bobby.

Told you about me, right?

Yeah, I know all about you.

Brody's bullshit beef between Lake and
Bobby was going on way before I got in

the mix.

I was just a motherfucker smart enough
to put the business first today.

These motherfuckers are too emotional to
do what they had to do to get the

money.

Well, you got my mind on it.

I mean, he needs somebody like me.

These motherfuckers might cut like me.

That's why you have my problems in your
operation room.

Money short.

Beef in the hood.

It sounds like I did you a favor
exposing the bullshit.

And I need to snake lock you around.

Bitch ass boy.

Jay said you out, nigga.

Go focus on your little goddamn dream.

You already done got the motherfucking
driver shot, nigga.

Your bitch ass.

Almost got the whole family fucked up.

I don't know why Jay sparing your bitch
ass like that, boy.

I'll fire your bitch ass up right now,
nigga.

Talk. Hope that shit work out for your
bitch ass.

You out, though.

And don't bring your bitch ass back to
this motherfucking hospital, then.

Leave all this shit alone.

Just focus on me.

You.

I'm becoming a better man.

Who are you?

So you're Tanisha. Nice to meet you.

I asked who you were.

And how do you know my name?

Miss Lifeline.

But I think you know who I am.

You're him.

You see what they did to him?

What you gonna do about it? Ain't this
your responsibility?

What did I do is a better question.

And no, this is not my responsibility.

But I handed it as a courtesy for Bobby.

For taking care of things as long as he
did.

Well, there's about to be some changes.

Changes?

Well, I respect you for what you did.

And I hope these changes keep him safe.

Bobby ain't who you think he is, and I
blame him for this shit.

Lake wants a different situation.

And he deserves it.

And we want what we work for.

I want to introduce myself.

Alone.

I need to trust in the people right now.

But I'm trusting you.

Glad to see you pulled through.

I heard a lot of good things about you.

You're good.

I know exactly what happened.

I sent him home.

I wanted to talk to you myself.

Me and Bobby made a lot of money
together, but... But I think our

partnership has ran its course.

A lot of respect for Bobby and what he's
done.

I'm allowing him to pursue his dreams.

So what do we owe you?

And there's no more we.

Focus on getting better.

I'll be seeing you soon.

A mama's baby boy. A

mama's baby boy.

I felt the pain. I seen the pain. All in
the same, I couldn't see it. I heard it

no more.

Tears in my eyes. I hopped with the
plane. It's something amazing.

I'm feeling the pain. Gotta keep
pushing. I give it no hollering.

One of them numbers, I'll put it in the
work. I can't be that modest.

I got family. I ain't hurt.

Might look at them definitely.

I'm a beast, boy. Fuck you, the pity
don't feel for me.

I'm mama's baby, boy.

So don't cry if I die. I'm V5 and you
know them young niggas gon' war.

I'm mama's baby, boy.

I came up, I can't take that garbage
spin. Well, you know, I'm two street in

car. I'm mama's baby, boy.

Big dream, I stay focused. I put in the
most I couldn't see.

Struggling no more.

I'm mama's baby, boy.

I felt the pain. I seen the pain. The
only thing I couldn't see. I heard it no

more. Lost my mom. Got a baby coming.
I'm sick to my stomach.

I didn't buy that house shit. I'm ready
to vomit.

All my shoes are stupid. I'm ready to
dumb it.

So why play with me? Keep all your
comments.
