I need you to pray for me; I need you to care for me. I need you to want me to win. I need to know where I'm heading, because I know where I've been. - 50 Cent

The mis-perception is gangster 50. That's the biggest misconception. Because, I can be those things that people – I have a reputation. My past is my shadow, it follows me everywhere I go. Well, all those things come from when I had no other choice. They put my back against the wall. I do what I gotta do. Because hip-hop has no requirements, you deal with people that have the least intelligence on the planet. Some of the people that compare themselves to me, compare themselves to me because they rap and I rap. They can't even read the contracts that they sign to be a rapper, to do the deal.

I am what I am; you can like it or love it. It feels good to blow fifty grand and think nothing of it.

When that window rolls down and that A.K. comes out? You can squeeze your little handgun, until you run out.
