I lived the game. 1644 01:24:13,298 --> 01:24:16,802 I paid my dues. I been to four penitentiaries. I have no regrets. 1645 01:24:16,802 --> 01:24:19,888 I'm not gonna use this as a situation to say, "oh, you see, I'm in jail..." 1646 01:24:19,930 --> 01:24:21,723 "And this is the result of pimpin'." 1647 01:24:21,723 --> 01:24:23,850 No, no, no. You don't got no sad story like that. 1648 01:24:23,850 --> 01:24:27,312 I'm gonna say to that 16 or 17-year-old who wants to pimp... 1649 01:24:27,563 --> 01:24:30,649 The chances of him not doin' it right are very high... 1650 01:24:30,691 --> 01:24:32,484 And not being successful are very high. 1651 01:24:32,526 --> 01:24:34,903 The pimp game is a lonely one.
