I would love it if, even for one day, you could walk through a neighborhood and see an Asian guy sitting on his stoop, then you look across the street and see a black guy and a white guy sitting on their porches, and a Mexican dude walking by.Quote by Eminem about magic, day, love
I'd go to, like, six different schools in one year. We were on welfare, and my mom never ever worked.
