From there, Gilbert spoke about living with his grandmother in Florida until his father got established in California, and going on to play basketball starting at age 12. To hear more, including Gilbert speaking about not being a great basketball player when he started out, hit the above clip.

Life hits different when the lady who births you abandons you. I’m 31 and mine abandoned me at the age of 15. It definently impacts you without truly knowing indepth. It affects you by not showing a sensitive side, not knowing what it’s like to be loved by a woman properly, not truly respecting a woman like you should respect a mom and so on.

@@horatioh2020 I don’t care about likes bro. I can relate to this man and that’s all that matters. With no mom in your life, you don’t know how it feels to be loved properly by a woman. With my dad being a veteran like me, all we know is getting the skins, but that’s all. To me, it’s get old, but then again, that’s all most women can offer this day and age unfortunately. With my dad being a black veteran, I commend him(despite his flaws and not raising me to be a man) because most Army black men back then leave the women they knocked up overseas and never be found again, but he brought me here to AmeriKKKa and caught me when the lady who birthed me let me go.
