My name is Sincere, Everybody in the Bronx knows me as Cere. I'm from Brooklyn New York. I moved to the Bronx when my father was murdered down the street from my grandma house on Thanksgiving. It's just my Mom, Myself and my two  siblings, Nasir, and Antonio, We call him ToneTone. In 1998 I was 10 years old, Me and my two Roadies Evan and Sab'Ashton were walking to school. Then my mom stopped me. I had to go check the mail, So I told them to Keep walking. I was going to the mailbox. Then this Big-time Drug Lord named Key was standing on the corner just stairing. So I kept going. On my way back, he was making a sale then, Then police came. He shot the two officers and dipped off down a alleyway. I stood their for a while shook as I could be. My brother ToneTone snatched my arm and ran me home. He explained to everybody what happened. Then my mom's dropped me off at school. I told my two buddies what happened. At the end of lunch, we went to recess. Then I seen him, He told me to come here. I went, He took me home and explained why I shouldn't be afraid of him, Also he said I'm a good child and he wants me to work at a little bar down the street from my school. My mom and my two brothers said no because they don't want me to end up dead. Two months later, I had sold my first drug. And boy did it feel great, eventually we were in Philadelphia. Soon we were in Chicago. Somehow, we managed to reach California. One day I fucked up, Big time. I sold a dime to my mom's best friend. He snitched. My mom beat me like I stole something, afterwards she told me to stop selling crack. I stopped for three hours and then went back.

2002

4 years later I'm 14. I got kicked out my mom's house when I was 12 I stayed with my grandma til things patched up with me and my mom's. One day, Evan asked me to put him on. I did now we both making dope money. Ashton had his own thing going. He wasn't really into crack like me and Evan. He was into his books and doing some Robin Hood type shit, stealing from the white folks. Giving back to the hood on some loyalty stuff. But drugs ain't all cool... Tone got shot and sentenced to 15 years in Prison. Key got knocked off too. He got shot up in a drive by back in 2000 he couldn't walk, Then the police raided his dope spot and sentenced him to Life without parole until 2032. Damn ! That's along way to go. One night me and my boys went to Club Violence in Harlem. We heard we had some business in their so we went...We got set up, The police surrounded us. It's three niggas in a police station it doesn't matter if we didn't have guns drugs or any other illegal objects. So we got sentenced to 12 months in Prison. Not juvie hall, big boy jail.

It's my 15th birthday in prison. Somehow I ran into Key. He threw me a prison bash. He also said when I get out he's gonna let his boys know to cut me half of his salary. So I'm finna get $500,000 worth of cocaine $250,000 worth of weed
$125,000 worth of Heroin and my favorite...

Do the math... I'm making 1.2 million dollars. Bet! I get out in 4 months. Me and E finna get this skrilla!

4 Months Later

We home. Back in the Bronx like we never left. We got back at the money and drug's soon as them prison gates opened. We decided to move our organization to Philly. That's when we met Beans. Yeah, Beanie Segel. He supplied us with so much work. We only 15 though! Evan moved back to the Bronx and kept things in line while I stayed in Philadelphia. Ashton still got his little Robin Hood poor rich situation going still. I linked up with Dame. He gave me more work than Beans did. But unfortunately Beans got caught up in a Murder case. 17-40 shit! I'mma take over Philly coast by coast.

2004

I had to go back to high school. That's when I met the three craziest niggas in my City,

•Von: Yeah, they call me von. Im known in Philly for getting niggas heads dropped for cheap. Just 4,500 and that nigga dead.

•Oc'Tavion: Oc'Tavion's the name. Just call me Tae. I'm known for Jacking niggas left and right. I'm also a master in shooting dice. So if y'all want y'all head busted in dice. You know where to find me

•Dex: I'm Dex, I'm a master at car jacking and pressuring niggas. My momma said she see my dad when she looks at me. I'm starting to believe her.

Back to the story

I was at lunch. Than this one big guy named Clayton smacked my lunch out my hand. Then I pushed him. Him and his football jocks tried to jump me on a lunch table. Than Dex rushed in and punched one in the jaw. Then Tae and Von ran up and broke things up. I gave them my biggest thanks. Dex asked me if I was that one guy he keeps hearing about from Brooklyn making moves in the city. I asked why. He said because he respects what I do. So I told him that was me. He said if I needed anything just hit him up. I said alright.

Then 5th period hit. The jocks were throwing paper balls at me during the test, Tae played like one hit him. And everybody in school knows, Don't hit Tae with anything. So he got up and slapped the hell out of one and said if he sees another one fly anywhere in the classroom he's gonna beat him like he stole something. I thanked him too

It was passing time for last hour. I went to the bathroom. The last 3 jocks tired to stab me. Von came in with a gun with no bullets in it. But they ran off scared like some kids.

A week later I seen them walking to a store. I paid for they stuff. As a way of saying thank you. I asked if they wanted to get down with my organization. They all said yeah... They got in my car and I took them to my house. They all enjoyed playing GTA : San Andreas on my new 52 inch tv that I just bought it with Crash Bandicoot and Spyro, While I counted up 5,000 for each one of them to go buy some drugs from my supplier.

Soon, we were all eating. We came up with our own Gang, ATC (Addicted to Cash).

2006

We all graduated from high school we all good right now. I got a house. A son. And I'm still alive at 18.

Graduation Night. Me and The ATC's went to The party. Evan was there. SabAshton was too. It's been so long since we all been together and no police. But Evan had to go shoot a move real quick and come back so we can Smoke and eat cake because it was also Vons birthday. I asked if I needed to go or send somebody with him. He said no he's good he got it on him (His gun). So he left,
And never returned...

The next morning I see a news clip like this...

"Last night, A local high schooler by the name of 'Evan Stillwater' was murder last night. Police say he was murdered around 12:45 A.M by another local man by the name of ------" I turned off the T.V. I grabbed my keys and drove to Ashton's house in tears. He didn't know yet so I had to break the news. He thought I was joking. Nahh he's gone foreal.
