Why me, is all I ask? My crime was getting drunk, that's how I dealt with pressure. I never smoked or sold drugs, I invite you to check my record! Drinking is legal, but I stayed intoxicated. For what you ask? It wasn't drug-related. It all started in 1983 when I was hit by a car. Paralyzing my left side, it goes back that far. I died 3 times, my life was robbed. It was a miracle I lived, by the grace of God! Just like a nightmare and tragedy, it was a terrible sight! I wasn't drunk driving, I was riding a bike! I went through the front window, and out the back. It was a 1983, Cadillac! I stayed in a coma for 6 weeks. The day they pulled the plug, I awoke from sleep! I couldn't even walk, but I was so determined. I lost a third of my memory, I had a will for learning. I got married the same year, to a beautiful woman! As time went by, the memories kept coming! I went to college, as part of my rehabilitation. I was starting a family, so I had to increase my education! Even though I only had the use of one hand It made me more determined, to be a man! With all I had been through, I wasn't delirious. Every one of my responsibilities, I took seriously! Here is something the doctors stated. If I had used any drugs, I never! Would've made it. I went through hell and hot water, and I proved I was able. Though I took care of my family, my wife was unfaithful! Since my accident, I have been butchered and slaughtered!! Though she was unfaithful, she got my two sons and one daughter. Without my kids, I got no love. It's not the fact that she cheated, she cheated with my cousin! She even married him, and that's when I really started drinking. I should've trusted in Jehovah (God) but, I was way beyond thinking! And now, I'm doing time for something, that I'm totally against. I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place, with my back against the fence! It's been pure hell! And I've had enough. I'm living for my kids, so, I can't give up! What I'm telling you is true, these are all the facts. "Why me, is all I ask?"
