One of my biggest fears when I was out there using, it wasn't a rival dope person, dope man coming to rob this other dope dealer. It wasn't the DEA. It wasn't the sheriff department. It wasn't the FBI. It wasn't any of those people that I feared when I was out there getting high. Because I didn't want them to see me like that.
