00:00:17Hey, bruh, I'm telling you, the street shit ain't where it's set.
00:00:20It's like every other day I'm hearing about someone who looks just like me and you losing their life out
00:00:25here.
00:00:28Even worse than that, it's someone that looks just like us that's doing the killing.
00:00:32Swann, my cousin's got arrested last week for murder.
00:00:35See, that's two young brothers' lives lost.
00:00:39Let me grab that cooler.
00:00:43Wrench this thing out.
00:00:46All right, let go.
00:00:49You got it?
00:00:50Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:00:53Not to mention, 12 out here killing us like animals.
00:00:57Yeah.
00:01:03Ain't no jobs out here.
00:01:06They gentrifying the hood.
00:01:09Rent prices getting high.
00:01:12Folks ain't got no choice but to hustle.
00:01:15Yeah.
00:01:16Selling poison to our own people.
00:01:19Bruh, I fear you.
00:01:20Social media has these young girls out here looking after strippers and popping pills.
00:01:25Beat one side.
00:01:27We still live.
00:01:29Remember him?
00:01:31Bad as fuck.
00:01:33And irony of it is, we live in Atlanta.
00:01:37Birthplace of the MLK, creator of the Civil Rights Movement.
00:01:40I bet Dr. King is turning his grave over at the monument right now, looking at what we've become.
00:01:45Savages.
00:01:47I'm telling you, that's why I'm just trying to stack my paper, get this car, pay my way through college,
00:01:53and get out of these streets.
00:01:54Once I get my degree in graphic design, I'm going to start my own company.
00:01:58Become an entrepreneur?
00:02:00Hell, I might even make it on the cover of Black Enterprise one day.
00:02:03This is my best friend, Dolo.
00:02:05We've been thick as thieves ever since we were kids.
00:02:08You sound crazy here.
00:02:11Shit, I was just trying to stack enough money, huh?
00:02:13Grab that hell, cat.
00:02:15That's my bad bitch around shotgun.
00:02:18What?

00:02:43I'm right, right.
00:02:44This is Slim.
00:02:45He was a star receiver at our school with lots of scholarship offers.
00:02:49Till, he got Angela.
00:02:50He was always talking about going to the league.
00:02:53Santana Moss, got down, walk on.

00:03:03These folks only want to see us with a gun, a microphone, or a ball in my hand.
00:03:07This is Malcolm.

00:03:12He literally keeps a membership card in his wallet.

00:04:01Look at this money.
00:04:02Let me explain to you the economics of being a water boy.
00:04:05Let's go water!
00:04:10You buy a cooler, $16.98 at Walmart, save money, live better.
00:04:33You get a bag of ice, $4.00.
00:04:4340 waters, $5.36 each.
00:04:53See, it's not only water we're selling, we're offering people an opportunity to support the
00:04:58inner-city kids who are trying to do something positive.
00:05:02Water!

00:05:05Let's go water, H2O, water!

00:05:31Come on, water!
00:05:32Hot out here, I need that water!
00:05:34All right, so listen, this is not about this water.
00:05:37It's about you doing what you need to do with the money, eh?
00:05:39Yeah.
00:05:40All right?
00:05:40You need change?
00:05:41I don't need change.
00:05:42Keep going.

00:05:47A tiny crump?
00:05:48How you doing, young king?
00:05:49I'm good.
00:05:50How are you?
00:05:50How may I help you today?
00:05:51I'm just out here selling water.
00:05:53Oh, brother, you're not just selling water.
00:05:55You're running your business.
00:05:56This $60 is an investment in your future business.
00:06:00We believe in you.
00:06:02All right, king.
00:06:16All right, king.
00:06:21We were constantly competing for corners with other water buds and drug dents.
00:06:43This is Junior.
00:06:44Him and his crew move different than us.
00:06:46They pack guns, sell drugs, and behave like criminals.
00:07:02Unfortunately, this was just the cost of doing business.
00:07:07We had to watch our backs any time that it was around.
00:07:15They would be out here trapping in bright daylight.
00:07:20And 12 wasn't doing nothing about it.
00:07:36Let's go, water!
00:07:39Let's go, water!
00:07:51Let's go, water!
00:07:52My team!
00:07:53Got some ice cold water.
00:07:54Hey, bro.
00:07:55Ice cold water!
00:07:58Water, little nigga.
00:07:59This is Lil' Zoo, the neighborhood drug dealer and all-around boom.
00:08:08He made nothing all day, man.
00:08:12Hell, he lying.
00:08:13So you mean to tell me you out here all day and you ain't make nothing?
00:08:16Come on with my cut, man.
00:08:18Quit playing, man.
00:08:19I said, what you got for me?
00:08:20Come on.
00:08:21Look, he robbing it.
00:08:26Run them pockets.
00:08:29Him and Zoo gang, I ain't terrible on these streets.
00:08:33Yes, sir.
00:08:34We don't lie, Juke.
00:08:35Oh, boy.
00:08:37Yo.
00:08:38Yeah.
00:08:39Hey, man.
00:08:40When you in the city of Atlanta, make sure you checking in, man.
00:08:44This big Zoo shit.
00:08:45For real.
00:08:47Tell them, Juke.
00:08:47Don't ever tell me that.
00:08:48Ain't nobody's money's taking us, bitch.
00:08:49Game, you got that fire on us.
00:08:51Mm-hmm.
00:08:52This ain't playing.
00:08:54Ready to do it.
00:08:56They were one of the most murderous gangs in the whole city.
00:09:05They were known for hitting licks and killing folks.
00:09:12Lil' Zoo would never hesitate to bust his gun.
00:09:21All these niggas out here, y'all trying to fuck with us, man.
00:09:23Get my block, Lil' Bro.
00:09:24You know I need to end on everything.
00:09:26Although Jun and his crew was trapped, they knew not to even try with Lizzo.
00:09:29See what I'm saying?
00:09:31I need to end on that, too.
00:09:45Hey, y'all.
00:09:47Woo!
00:09:51Let's do it.
00:09:57Let's do it.
00:09:58How's y'all doing today?
00:10:01Doing fine.
00:10:02Especially now that you here, Miss Officer.
00:10:06So when you gonna let me take you on the date or something?
00:10:08When you about 20 years older.
00:10:12But then you'll be too old for me by the end.
00:10:14Oh, you done tried it.
00:10:16You know, black don't crack around here.
00:10:17Yeah, I know.
00:10:19So what about me?
00:10:24Good, sweetie?
00:10:25Yeah.
00:10:26Yeah, I'm good.
00:10:30Y'all be safe around here.
00:10:32Sure.
00:10:32Come on.
00:10:36Come on.
00:10:36Let's get back to work.
00:10:38Don't forget about our date.
00:10:40Go.
00:10:45What the hell we doing about Lil' Zulu?
00:10:46I ain't worried about it.
00:10:48I keep telling y'all we need a fire.
00:10:51Oh, see, that's playing right into their hands, my brother.
00:10:53If you live by the gun, you die by the gun.
00:10:55Yeah, he go without it, my brother shit.
00:10:57Man, go on without it.
00:10:58Y'all, I think don't go right, though.
00:11:00We do need some protection on him.
00:11:02No, we don't.
00:11:04When you have a gun, it creates gun problems.
00:11:06And?
00:11:07Look, I'd rather be called witty than what at it.
00:11:10Hell yeah.
00:11:11Whatever.
00:11:13Hey.
00:11:16Shelling water, bro.
00:11:17Why are we so gangsta?
00:11:18Water!
00:11:22Water!
00:11:35Tonight, Mayor Thomas held a press conference regarding the out-of-control street vendors
00:11:40called the Waterboys.
00:11:42You may have seen them on your local street corner selling ice-cold beverages.
00:11:47But some say they have a much more sinister motive.
00:11:50You may also recall that 17-year-old Christopher Hearns was slain over a minor dispute with a
00:11:56fellow Waterboy.
00:11:57Here's what Mayor Thomas had to say.
00:12:01Now, we are all four young people embracing the entrepreneurial spirit.
00:12:08However, what will not be tolerated is the mob-like mentality some young men have displayed.
00:12:16There have been assaults, car thefts, and unfortunately, a teenager was killed.
00:12:25Now, my office and I, we are working on resolutions to end this type of behavior.
00:12:36Hey, Mama.
00:12:37Hey.
00:12:38How you doing?
00:12:40I am tired.
00:12:43Been out here working double shifts and all I get in the mail is a stack of damn bills.
00:12:59Where did you get that from?
00:13:01Selling water.
00:13:02I told you.
00:13:03It's a good hustle.
00:13:04A good hustle.
00:13:06You know what I'm saying.
00:13:10You don't have to do that.
00:13:12Yes, I do.
00:13:14I'm grown now.
00:13:15And I need to do my part.
00:13:17Oh, you grown now.
00:13:19A couple little hairs on your face don't make you grown, boy.
00:13:23Oh, oh, you trying to play?
00:13:26I almost got a full mustache.
00:13:28Look.
00:13:30I see a little something.
00:13:32What you want for dinner?
00:13:34You don't have to cook anything.
00:13:36I'll make something.
00:13:37You gonna cook?
00:13:39Mm-mm.
00:13:40No child of mine is going to bed on top ramen and what's that you make, grilled cheese?
00:13:45You trying to say I can't cook?
00:13:47I didn't say that, but I said what I said.
00:13:52You like the food?
00:13:53Of course.
00:13:57You know, I've been thinking.
00:13:59I'm getting real worried about you selling that wood on them corners.
00:14:03I brought you out here from New York when you was a baby to provide you with a safer environment.
00:14:09Mom, look.
00:14:10There's no way I can make this kind of money.
00:14:12Unless, what, I get like an academic scholarship or something.
00:14:16Rich is super rare.
00:14:17I've got to stack my money up.
00:14:19I know that.
00:14:21But these corners are dangerous.
00:14:23You know I just read online about the little boy who got shot selling water?
00:14:28Well, there are a few bad seeds in the bunch.
00:14:31Boy, don't be trying to use my quotes against me.
00:14:35I promise you.
00:14:36I'll be safe.
00:14:38College is my only way out.
00:14:40It's our only way out.
00:14:42You gotta where?
00:14:44The trap.
00:14:45The trap?
00:14:46Does this look like the trap to you?
00:14:50Mom.
00:14:51You should see where I grew up.
00:14:52Mom, our house is nice, but there are drug dealers that live right next door.
00:14:56Boy, you've always been smart and ambitious and hard-headed, just like your father.
00:15:06I just wish he could see you.
00:15:11It would be so proud.
00:15:15My ambitions are different, though.
00:15:19Yeah, I know that.
00:15:31Excuse me.
00:16:00My father was murdered in the streets when I was young.
00:16:03I never really dealt with his death.
00:16:06The black community doesn't believe in therapy.
00:16:10I'm sure I needed it.
00:16:12My way of dealing with it was not talking about it, which can't be healthy.
00:16:27It's because of my melanin.
00:16:29My melanin.
00:16:30My melanin.
00:16:30My God's superpowers.
00:16:31Heaven sent.
00:16:32Heaven sent.
00:16:32It's because of my melanin.
00:16:34My melanin.
00:16:35I'm better than I ever been.
00:16:37Ever been.
00:16:38It's because of my melanin.
00:16:39My melanin.
00:16:40We got superpowers, heaven sent
00:16:43It's because of our melody
00:16:45The black and the berry
00:16:46We live in this sweet life
00:16:47Not afraid to roll the dice
00:16:49To make the power move
00:16:50Despite the haters that want to dim my light
00:16:52That's why we hold each other down
00:16:54Stick tight when there's a fight
00:16:55We keep our feet on solid ground
00:16:57You never drown when the homies are round
00:16:58Cause we kings and queens, we fix each other's crown
00:17:00When you sad and mad, we make you laugh
00:17:03Turn that crown upside down
00:17:04Give you a hug and a pound
00:17:06We fam, only my real ones understand
00:17:08My day ones, my dogs about to master plan
00:17:11Creativity and talent is the perfect marriage
00:17:14You can't destroy the friendship and the bond we establish
00:17:17The key to living lavish is the goddess of the planet
00:17:20Is that black girl magic giving us black boy joy
00:17:22We so charismatic, ecstatic, enthusiastic
00:17:25We live a blessed life, you gotta have it
00:17:28I'm better than I ever been, ever been
00:17:31It's because of my melody
00:17:34Got superpowers, heaven sent
00:17:36It's because of my melody
00:17:38I'm a melody
00:17:39Melody, melody, melody, melody
00:17:41Melody, melody
00:17:41Melody, melody
00:17:49Hey, what's for sale now?
00:17:51Please, stop
00:17:52I don't have any cash on me
00:17:54No cash?
00:17:56Let's go, let's go, let's go
00:18:07Let's go, let's go
00:18:09After this, I knew it was going to be a hot summer
00:18:14Police are currently on a city-wide manhunt for a water boy
00:18:18Who carjacked a woman on the west side of Atlanta earlier today
00:18:21This is a...
00:18:24Hey
00:18:26Hey
00:18:26Hey, ma
00:18:27You got some mail on the table
00:18:43We regret to inform you that your application has been denied
00:18:50Baby, don't even worry about that
00:18:52You know things happen exactly the way they supposed to
00:18:55And patience is key
00:18:59I know
00:19:00It's frustrating
00:19:01I know
00:19:03You ever thought about applying to local colleges?
00:19:08I really want to go out of state
00:19:10And I really want you to stay home
00:19:12I want to get us out of here
00:19:14At least out of this neighborhood
00:19:18Yeah, I know
00:19:20It's like ever since your father passed
00:19:22You became the man of the house
00:19:25Mm-hmm, I had to
00:19:27Who else is going to protect you?
00:19:29Protect me?
00:19:30I ain't no punk now
00:19:31I could take care of myself
00:19:35You remember...
00:19:36You remember Marvin?
00:19:38Of course
00:19:39The only guy you dated since dad?
00:19:41Yes, the only guy and the last guy
00:19:43Thank God
00:19:45Hey, you remember that time y'all was arguing in your bedroom
00:19:48And I was standing outside with the bat?
00:19:50How could I forget?
00:19:52Yeah, he was about to get it
00:19:54You were eight
00:19:55Yeah, but I had a cold swing
00:19:59You did
00:20:01I love you
00:20:03I love you too, Mama
00:20:06You know, I was
00:20:08Watching on the news
00:20:09What happened to the water boys
00:20:12Mom, I told you
00:20:14I'm good
00:20:17That stuff just really makes me afraid for you
00:20:20Remember what you told me?
00:20:22What's that?
00:20:23Fear and faith can't occupy the same space
00:20:26Yes, but
00:20:28That doesn't mean you intentionally go put yourself in harm's way
00:20:31Them corners is dangerous
00:20:35I'll be alright
00:20:40Will you just humor me?
00:20:42And try to get a job doing something else?

00:55:05Today on the west side of Atlanta, police were called to the scene of a shooting involving water boys.
00:55:11Witnesses say there was an altercation between two rival groups of water boys.
00:55:17That's when shots rang out.
00:55:19The entire scene was captured on cell phone stage.
00:55:23Citizens continue to pressure the mayor's office to take action.
00:55:27More on the story at 11.
00:55:46Oh, my God.
00:55:47What happened?
00:55:48What happened?

00:55:51I'm fine.
00:55:53You got to stop selling water.
00:55:55What else am I going to do?
00:55:56There is no other choice for a young black man without no degree.
00:56:00And I can't buy a car.
00:56:01And I got to pay for my way through college with the minimum wage job.
00:56:07It's just too dangerous.
00:56:10Life is dangerous.
00:56:11If I'm going to die, I'd rather die doing something with my life.
00:56:26Deep down inside, I knew she was right.
00:56:43I'm going to die.

00:58:28Things could be better.
00:58:30Why you say that?
00:58:32In these corners are getting dangerous, man. It's like we starting to deal with the same type of drama we
00:58:39would have if we were selling drugs.
00:58:41Yeah, I heard about that shooting on the news.
00:58:44Yeah, that was me.
00:58:46Doing the shooting?
00:58:47No, no. Getting shot at.
00:58:50Drew, what is your end game, man?
00:58:52What do you mean?
00:58:53I mean, what do you want to get out of selling this water?
00:58:56I'm just trying to save enough money to get a car so I can enroll in college.
00:59:00What you want to study?
00:59:02Graphic design.
00:59:03So you draw?
00:59:03Yeah.
00:59:04You know how to use a computer?

00:59:33summer.

00:59:37I will. Thank you.
00:59:40So have you considered going to any local colleges?
00:59:43Nah, I want to go out of state, you know? See something different.
00:59:47Well, if you reconsider, just know I got a little sway around these parts, all right?
00:59:53Okay, I'll keep that in mind.
00:59:54All right.
00:59:55Well, let me go back into this office, brother.
00:59:57But please, make me one promise, Drew.
01:00:02Promise me you're going to be safe on these streets, brother.
01:00:06I will.
01:00:11All right, now.
01:00:13Talk to you.
01:00:19In response to the recent violence surrounding Waterboys, the mayor has ordered a citywide crackdown.
01:00:28The mayor finally took action to try to shut us down.
01:00:36We will not tolerate these thugs fronting as entrepreneurs terrorizing our street corners.
01:00:44Therefore, I have called an immediate crackdown on the so-called waterboys.
01:00:54If they do not have a vendor's license or behave accordingly,
01:00:59they will not be allowed to sell waters on these corners.
01:01:12We didn't even do nothing.
01:01:14We didn't even do nothing to you.
01:01:14I'm going to fuck.
01:01:16Wait, hold on.
01:01:17Hold on.
01:01:19Hold on.
01:01:20I know these kids.
01:01:22I'm going to give them a ride home and give them a nice turn talking to.
01:01:38Get in.
01:01:43You guys going to have to find something else to do.
01:01:48Like what?
01:01:50Sell drugs?
01:01:52There is nothing else out here for us.
01:01:57Name.
01:02:00Why you think they call it the truck?
01:02:04Once you know.
01:02:06There ain't no eye.
01:02:08I would think the police would muck right outside of selling water
01:02:12and kicking in four doors.
01:02:16Look, I totally understand that.
01:02:19But with all the drama surrounding the waterboys,
01:02:22it's going to be nearly impossible for y'all to continue to operate.
01:02:25At least within Atlanta city limits.
01:02:29I don't know 12 have better shit to worry about.
01:02:33Like all the violence in the city.
01:02:35It's Atlanta.
01:02:38I promise you, these little incidents with us,
01:02:40that ain't nothing compared to what's really going on out here.
01:02:43This is true.
01:02:45But once members of the community start flooding the mayor's office with complaints,
01:02:50he has to do something.
01:02:52He's a publicly elected official.
01:02:54Therefore, assertive people.
01:03:00Assertive people, huh?
01:03:04What people?
01:03:06What do these people from?
01:03:08What do these people look like?
01:03:12Because it sure enough don't feel like he'll serve us.
01:03:16Listen, I have a teenage nephew.
01:03:19So I understand what you guys are up against.
01:03:21You are too smart, ambitious, young man.
01:03:25So I'm sure y'all figure something out.
01:03:32Think about what I said, all right?
01:03:36Be careful.
01:03:51We done had no choice but to keep selling water.
01:03:55We just had to find another corner to stand on.
01:04:10Hey, see, I told you we would be straight.
01:04:14I guess you're all right.
01:04:16Ain't no competition out here, and business is booming.
01:04:19Y'all got to listen to your boys sometime.
01:04:21Well, what the hell?
01:04:30Oh, what the fuck?
01:04:34Griff don't know, y'all.
01:04:35Y'all got something that you're doing here?
01:04:37Shit, making money.
01:04:39What it look like?
01:04:40I want to hold something all up.
01:04:43I got you.
01:04:44I got you for sure.
01:04:49Why you say something or nothing?
01:04:54Griff don't need your money.
01:04:56It's my corner.
01:04:57Griff want my corner back.
01:04:59Your corner?
01:05:00Boy, you homeless.
01:05:02You ain't got no corner.
01:05:03Yeah?
01:05:05I am, Adelaide.
01:05:06Matter of fact, it's money back.
01:05:10Give me all your goddamn...
01:05:11Hey, whoa, calm down.
01:05:13We ain't got to do this.
01:05:14But we ain't giving you shit.
01:05:16Got to back your stupid ass up.
01:05:19Why pop your ass out here.
01:05:21Yeah.
01:05:23Griff don't want me, Brianna.
01:05:25Yeah, I know you don't.
01:05:27So beat it then, nigga.
01:05:33Go on.
01:05:38Boy, I told y'all we need that straw.
01:05:40Where the fuck did you get that?
01:05:43Don't worry about it.
01:05:44We do not need a gun out here.
01:05:46Like hell.
01:05:48You got to get rid of that.
01:05:49No, I don't.
01:05:50When y'all trained.
01:05:51Y'all saw what just happened.
01:05:52We need that fine.
01:05:53Then we can't be in business no more.
01:06:01Fine.
01:06:04Now I go find my own block to stand on.
01:06:08Who?
01:06:12You know, I can't believe you acting like a bitch
01:06:16when I just say that.
01:06:19Yo.
01:06:23Me.
01:06:26Always saving you.
01:06:32That's what?
01:06:37Y'all feel the same way?
01:06:41No.
01:06:42I'm gonna feel my dog.
01:06:48And let's see how I make some money without your butt.
01:06:56Let's get back to work, bro.
01:06:59Come on.
01:06:59Let's get back to work.

01:07:06Water!
01:07:06Get your good water!
01:07:30That night, I couldn't stop thinking about what happened between me and Dolo.
01:07:35буu!
01:07:40Hm!
01:07:43Hey!
01:07:45Hey!'ve!
01:07:49Yeah!

01:07:59Hey!
01:08:02Hey!
01:08:19Come on bro, you look dehydrated, get you some H2O.
01:08:27Water, water.
01:08:32When I told them I was going to get my own corner stand on, bet they never thought it'd be
01:08:37cross the street.
01:08:46Water, water.
01:08:48Water.
01:08:58What's happening?
01:09:01You see that same little nigga from the party the other night, ain't it?
01:09:06Ain't that little buddy from the party that was talking that shit?
01:09:09Mm-hmm.
01:09:11You so hard now, little nigga.
01:09:13Matter of fact, run them pockets, little niggas.
01:09:14What?
01:09:15Run them pockets.
01:09:16I said run them pockets.
01:09:19Mm-hmm.
01:09:19And I'm gonna need a water too.
01:09:29Mm-hmm.
01:09:32Hell nah.
01:09:33Say what?
01:09:47Back up.
01:09:48Get your little ass back till you be next.
01:09:51Told you to give me a water, little nigga.
01:09:57Nooo!
01:10:09Come on!
01:10:12Come on, keep breathing, bro.
01:10:14Keep breathing, bro.
01:10:16Somebody get out!
01:10:19Keep breathing, bro.
01:10:21Come on, Emily!
01:10:24Get out!
01:10:46Keep breathing, bro.
01:10:47So I can't do that.
01:10:48I can't do that.
01:10:51I can't do that.
01:10:54I can't do that.
01:11:13I never felt so much rage in my life.
01:11:16I want it blurred.
01:11:40Baby, you home?
01:11:42I had to work late so it's no dinner, but we could order something.
01:11:51Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:11:54What are you doing?
01:11:58What happened?
01:12:00They killed Dolo.
01:12:02Who?
01:12:03Lazoo.
01:12:04The dude who showed up to the party.
01:12:07I see, I see.
01:12:10And what do you plan on doing with that?
01:12:16Baby, no.
01:12:19Killing somebody is not going to bring your friend back.
01:12:22It's only going to cause another black woman to grieve.
01:12:26Baby, I know that you're hurt and you have every right to be.
01:12:31But violence only begets more violence.
01:12:36I cannot and will not watch you throw your life away in a fit of rage.
01:12:42You're the only thing I got left.
01:12:46All right, all right, all right, all right.
01:12:48Now just calm down.
01:12:51Let me take the gun and let's talk about this.
01:12:56Let's just talk about it.
01:13:01It's going to be all right.
01:13:04So sorry.
01:13:06He's gone.
01:13:09Yeah, yeah, he's gone.
01:13:10Oh, no, I don't.
01:13:11I know.
01:13:30It's a sad day
01:13:32For our city
01:13:34Our community
01:13:38Our church
01:13:40And our family
01:13:45But you must remember that you are not alone
01:13:52And Matthew
01:13:5411 to 28 says
01:13:58Come to me
01:14:01All of you
01:14:03That are weary
01:14:05And carry
01:14:07Heavy burdens
01:14:08And I will give you rest
01:14:15Take my yoke upon you
01:14:19Let me teach you
01:14:21Because I am humble and gentle at heart
01:14:26And you will find rest
01:14:28For your souls
01:14:34For my yoke
01:14:36Is easy to bear
01:14:40And the burden
01:14:41That I give to you
01:14:44Is light
01:14:47Amen
01:14:48Amen
01:14:49Now brother Vashon Mitchell
01:14:53Is going to sing a wonderful hymn for you guys
01:14:55And as he sings
01:14:57We can say our final goodbyes
01:15:00To this young man
01:15:03Gone way
01:15:05Too soon
01:15:16Greetings family and friends
01:15:17I just want to let you know
01:15:19That it won't always be like this
01:15:20It's turning around for you
01:15:27Sometimes discouraged
01:15:30But not defeated
01:15:35Cast down but
01:15:38Not destroyed
01:15:44There are times I
01:15:47Don't understand
01:15:49Don't understand
01:15:50Don't understand
01:15:51But I believe
01:15:53It's turning around for me

01:16:03And disappointment

01:17:19A change is coming for me
01:17:20If I stay strong
01:17:21If I stay strong
01:17:23And believe
01:17:24There's no reason to doubt
01:17:28My road is working
