I'm not like one of those Eric Benet,
open-toe-sandal-wearin', poetry-recitin'...

:02:04
...Jill-Scott-listenin'-to, latte-drinkin',
not-afraid-to-cry, snob motherfuckers.

:02:09
I'm somethin' different.
:02:11
10:00 p.m., she's writin' in her diary.
I'm writin' in mine.

:02:14
1 1:00 p.m., she's hittin' the sack. So am I.
:02:17
For all intents and purposes,
we're like a married couple.

:02:20
Which is no good,
'cause when the call comes in...

:02:23
...I'm supposed to take her off
this mortal-fuckin' coil.

:02:26
And now, I'm havin' doubts.
:02:27
What the fuck was it?
A momentary bout of consciousness, maybe?

:02:32
It was a lot more.
:02:34
I trace it back to when I was doing hits...
:02:36
...for a loud-mouth rock dealer named...
:02:47
Frenchy Davis was the number-one employer
of downwardly mobile black youths...

:02:51
...in the neighborhood.
:02:52
The area underneath the Sixth Street Bridge
was the corporate headquarters.

:02:56
And he was always lookin' for new executives.
:02:59
If I say I wanna motherfucker smoked,
that's just what the fuck I want...

:03:02
...a motherfucker smoked.
:03:09
These tattoos are shit.
You're a bad nigger, huh?

:03:13
You think you got the nuts
to put a hole in a motherfucker?

:03:16
-Who?
-This motherfucker!

:03:20
Yo, man, you ain't got to do this.
:03:24
I've heard stories
from the most don't-give-a-fuck killers...

:03:27
...'bout how the first time was the hardest.
:03:29
You know what?
I don't even remember the first time.

:03:32
All I remember was
that after I pulled the trigger on that kid...

:03:37
...I knew it wouldn't be a problem.
:03:40
I guess, in a strange way, he was my first kill.
:03:44
No, for real. Look, man...
:03:46
...money is time, time is money.
Let's be on time this time, now.

:03:50
Please, for me. Be there on time.
:03:54
It didn't take long to figure out
that I was different from the others.

:03:58
See, I took my new job serious.
