it's gone
You wanna dance?
Yeah.
I do.
You know what the worst
thing was about living with my mom?
It was the constant reminder
we weren't gonna make it.
Seeing her putting
more and more hours
Busting her ass
trying to work a system
that had let her down from day one.
Now my kid sister's
in trouble at school.
The teachers all decide
she's a bad kid.
She gets labelled and she's f***ed.
Because that's how the world
works for people like us.
If we let it, you know?
What?
You can sleep here if you want to.
Hold.
Open 42.
Watch out!
Hey, old timer.
You got anything to read?
Come on, I've been in the
hole for three weeks.
I'm going batshit.
I don't wanna be friends, guppy.
I've been down more than three
years, I ain't no fish.
JB...
Guillermo runnin' his mouth, man.
Punk ass said you snuck him
in the shower.
Wants to put a knife in your back.
So what?
Why does nobody test that guy?
'Cause that guy made it known
he didn't wanna be tested.
Motherf***er's got
status in the yard.
saying he's done two more since.

Planning a vacation?
Don't talk to me.
Why I'm right?

but chain gangs,
street gangs turn into literary
genius, am I right?
I rewrite, everybody start,
everyone have to write...
Yard's over!
Yo.
What's in Rio de "Janeerio"?
Shut up.
Hit.
Hit.
Somethin' better.
Somethin' better?
It's pronounced "Janeiro".
You've been?
Only in my mind.
I got this kid hurt.
There was a fight in the
showers and he got stabbed.
So?
So, I'm gonna
Oh, starting
a yard war is a good way
to make sure you don't
go back to the real world.
Maybe that's what you're scared of.
I'm not scared.
Oh, you think you different
News for you, kid.
You're not.
Go!
Oh, sh*t!
Hey.
Um, can I get two grape cigarillos
and a pack of racks, please?
Do you have ID?
Oh... I think I forgot it at home.
Come on, we're friends aren't we?
Just take it.
What?
I don't want any trouble.
I've seen you around.
I know you deal drugs.
I'm not robbing you.
I'm paying, see?
I'm James.
Hey.
Come here.
Let's go somewhere and f***.
Uh-huh
It's a fly little low so
I thought you got that outfit
last week week
When you were shoppin'
Call it heavy

Hey yo, slow down.
Yo!

Yo, pull the f*** over!
