Justin: But, I'll call my mom from time to time, and I'll go visit her. I let her know how I'm doing. Every time she see me, she's happy and then when I leave, she start crying because she don't want me to leave. I know how she feels, but it's not my fault. I want to go back home, but my mom keeps asking my dad, but she's like, “Oh, he says no, he's not coming back home. He gotta stay out there and live by himself; he gotta learn how to live by himself, like grow up.”
