Sometimes life hands us a bat and a uniform and then drop us in the bottom of the ninth inning with two outs and two strikes. Losing by one you have no choice but to score. Wayne was fresh out of prison with the mindset to do right; live a law-abiding life. But circumstances were forcing him back onto the road he had sworn to never again travel. Not one to give up, he mustered up the courage and decided to give the streets one last try. This time he vowed to go hard or go home. And true to his word, he went hard, using the backs of any and all as a ladder to climb up; not caring who, what, when, where, or why. He was all in. He had learned in prison that only the heartless survived, and circumstances had hardened his heart. Now anger and bitterness were pushing him toward becoming heartless. And if being heartless was what it would take to make it, then so be it. But karma is a motherfucker when you're playing against the odds.
