What did you say to get Link to turn? I'm sure you... Promised him something.
Yeah, yeah what you and the Dai Lo never would. A shot. A chance to be somebody. Link was tired of being overlooked. He ain't the only one, neither. Years of being brushed aside, laughed at, told to eat shit and fuckin' like it? It breaks ya. Makes you wanna break somebody else. Figured you would've understood that, considering. But you? You and your kind, you're so busy filling your own fuckin' plate, you don't see that everyone around you is starving. You got no idea what it feels like, born into nothin'. Havin' to smile at the person whose boot's on your neck. Hopin' one day they'll look down, see you there and just let up? You know what people'll do to push that down? Anything. Anything to push down that feeling!
You think I don't understand that? Right. It doesn't matter... Oswald Cobb, man of the people...
That's right.
That's what you need to believe, huh?
