It had taken me way too long to figure out that it ain’t about how high you climb in the music business. It’s what you give up in the process. It only takes a split second for things to go bad in this industry, and Hurricane played the game so well his empire was stacked strong and tall. A lot of people ask me how I got here, and others wanna know why I stay. So I’ll just give it to you raw and dirty, the same way it was given to me. How ’bout I put you up on square one so you can see for yourself how it all began. Take a look at what went down before Hurricane grabbed hold of my world and spun it around like a tornado, totally out of control. Check out this snapshot of what my life was like before the passion and the pain. Before the money and the madness.
Her man demanded loyalty, but her body wouldnt obey.
