N*gger, I can't spend my whole day

Man, I got sh*t to do, and I already

- What? You want me to change my mind?
- No.
Keep f***ing around
I'm taking my sh*t back, man.
See you later.
You can have it all. It's... it's all burned.
All burned up.
Dear diary, I am in the second grade.
Mommy gave me this diary on the
Christmas before she went to heaven.
She told me to write in it every day,
because every day of my life
would be special.
I asked her, "Why?" And she said because
she loved me more than life itself.
And when someone loves you that much,
then you're special "automcly."
When I get to heaven, I want to be able
to tell her about every day I was alive,
and I don't want to forget anything.
I will even tell her about the days I was bad
and the days that I didn't do
anything at all.
So, today, I started my diary, of course...
and now I'm going to sleep.
Excuse me.
Do you know how to read cursive?
Do you know how to read this?
Get the f*** out of here. Move on.
Heavenly father,
I know I've made some mistakes in my life.
I know I've done some... some bad things.
I'm a sinner and I deserve to go to hell.
But you sent your son
to forgive me for my sins.
And today, Jesus, I accept you into
my heart as my personal lord and savior.
You can open your eyes now.
You've been saved.
Here, this is yours.
I'll look for you in heaven.
Ma'am. Hi, how are you?
Excuse me. Can you read out
of this book it... it's in cursive.
I can't, right now. I'm...
Read the Bible.
Hi, ma'am. Do you believe
in God by any chance?
Good.
I'd like to, uh... I'd like to show you
a verse here from the Bible.
It's John 3:
16. You know who John was?Mommy, something stinks.
If you would pay for these cards, uh...
uh, I know I smell bad.
And I, uh... I'll wait outside.
Thank you.
It thundered the night my mom died.
I'm afraid of thunder.
I'm afraid of thunder, too.
My name is Willie.
I found your diary and thought
I would write you back
if you don't mind.
Maybe, we could be pen pals.
But to do that, I guess I have
to tell you a little bit about myself.
I live on the nickel.
In the morning I wake up
when the sun comes out
and go look for food.
I'm always so hungry in the morning.
I will eat just about anything.
After that, I walk around
trying to get money.
Sometimes I just go exploring.
I like to climb stuff.
I found this roof I can climb up to.
You can see the whole city
for a long, long way.
When it gets real hot, I sleep in my box.
It's a good box.
And sometimes I sleep almost all day
because I stay up so late at night.
It's really scary at night.
If you sleep, somebody might do
something bad to you.
These guys, they took my sleeping bag
one time and now it's really cold at night,
which also makes me sad.
So, I am what is called
a "night owl" right now.
It is usually quiet, but it is lonely.
You're the only person I know.
So, that makes you special...
"automcly."
P.S...
I am afraid of thunder, too.
Dear diary...
today was my first day at my new school.
I'm living with Uncle Craig
in his apartment downtown,
and I don't know anybody here.
What?
Back! This is my spot now.
Go and find your own damn spot.
Who wants your sh*t?
Everyone stares at me weird,
and I don't like it.
There are a few kids
I want to make friends with...
but they don't know I exist.
When Mommy was sick, I used to hug her,
and she said it made everything okay.
She promised that whenever I get lonely
she will send an angel down to hug me.
But I haven't seen him yet.
Hey, who wants 50 bucks?
Yo, who wants 50 bucks?
- Get in fights a lot?
- Get in 'em? I start 'em!
Ask anybody on this row,
anybody in this whole f***ing city,
and they'll tell you,
"Skillet the killer, motherf***er."
You kill people?
Yeah, I kill them.
Beat 'em, eat 'em.
