- DESCRIPTION: Rock blues song with a slow bounce to it.
- Author COMMENTS: Written April 24, 2012. This song starts the album and my new life without a family. After being a Mr. Mom since 1991, I was unable to support myself financially. When I moved to Las Vegas to start a Shaolin Kung Fu school, I ended up being used and told to, "hit the road," after performing a couple months of Chinese Lion Dances for the existing Vegas school of my Kung Fu brother. I ran into some "seedy characters" and with my bald head and "Buddha Zhen" name being my primary Vegas identity... people started confessing to me. I heard things I'm still trying to forget. This horrible environment, abandonment, and near starvation... was a scary life in a city where I didn't have a single friend or relative. For the first time in my life, I feared death on a daily basis...
