I felt so helpless when I was a kid that
I said I would never be that helpless
ever so I said I gotta get strong I had
to let people know that I am NOT all
that in this we go I’m just like
everybody else
and what happens is in Hollywood and I
place for pro sports – sports I believe
in the NFL all the way to Hollywood and
the whole thing is that they treat you
so larger-than-life I mean you’re bigger
than everybody else the prize that we
have is something that could really
really hurt us because what happens is
as you’re built up and everyone eyes and
everyone is now saying you’re the man
you’re this visit you don’t want
anything to ruin that you start to love
that even though in your personal life
it’s been stuff
even though at home everybody knows the
real you but you keep the picture
because now it’s not about it’s about a
plan I’m Terry Crews the brand I am a
brand now I am I am an image and I have
an image to uphold and its really proud
and what happens is it will collapse
with that image you become better than
everyone else you are now you’re you
floating you’re are you literally like
and you’re better than other people this
is where you easily see opting stars up
the athletes on seeing ministers I’ve
seen all kind of different people who
literally dog out people below him
because I’m better than you I really
believe I am worth more than you ah me
Jerry Cruise I believe I was more
valuable than my wife and kids I did I’m
not I’m being real with you I was like
you know my wife will come to me on my
you know whatever you have to say I’m
the boss
my way kids would have something to say
I’m like you know what be quiet
get back shut up out
we’ll walk away
and you treat everybody like that it’s
because you’re better you feel you’re
better
I’m work for you
and what happened is that you officially
fall you eventually lose the job you
eventually lose your money you
eventually have to you are going to take
a loss now the most dangerous part about
this though is because when you become
your wins when you’re floating and high
and all that you inevitably have to
become your losses you have to lose this
is why athletes when you see a man I
play with the guys man who were
superstars and when it was over two
kills himself I’m playing with him so my
club trouble closes teammate turn around
and then commit suicide when the career
is over I run it around and he wonders
when Hollywood what in the world you
know crackers and drugs and cocaine and
ecstasy you notice is all bad why would
you do it but the thing is they did I I
lost so now I’m killing myself slowly I
was headed on a trajectory that was
setting me up for the biggest haul of
all

okay and I’m a big guy
my father is a big man and I was a kid
my earliest memory of my father was him
knocking my mother
um so I knew okay I want to get hit so
I’ll tell you what he says goes
and he did this for years for years he
was in an Intimidator and it was always
you know I see his big farm his big
hands he come he stomped through the
Hawthorn part fungal and it’s like whoa
here he comes we would run I mean I
literally would run when I heard him
coming we knew his car will pull up the
doors closed we run and then he come
find us and he’s like oh no what we just
who he was me really me because I always
thought I thought I needed to protect
myself and I felt so helpless when I was
a kid that I said I will never be that
help ever trust that I gotta get strong
[Music]
and I’m literally I told my father
before I brought my family back home
called it the Christmas from hell I said
don’t you do anything in front of my kid
that you’ll regret okay because I’m
bringing my kids into the South now then
I will do nothing I gotta let bonded I’m
here ain’t doing this okay so I do it
read you told everybody their kids are
at the house I get a call like oh my god
Gary is my hands back making the kids

all messed up sit they’re all messed up
let me tell you man I did not feel one
ounce of satisfaction I thought it was

after and while I was ill recovering and
I was working on myself and I remember
just the boys came to me cuz you got to
talk to your father as you got to tell
him you got
[Music]
for that minute I can’t do that I can’t
just that’s crazy I’m out too yeah
but look what he did it don’t matter
find one thing that you can thank him
for and I called him up and I said you

the words just came out for real I said
I see this that if I could choose my
parents I’d choose you because I would
not be here there’s no way I could’ve
guessed about you and you didn’t is we
got a dance because you don’t come from

have that be part of my path let me tell
you crime
[Music]
he when we sat there and I held him and
I hugged him we hug for about fifteen
minutes it was the most beautiful
beautiful reconciliation and I could

see because people think what strength
is I’m trying to tell you that strength
is not MMA this is not how many tattoos
but I like that you but it’s not stress
does not to look this is the hug
strength is the humility of using it now
strength is you being gentle with your
wife and your kids strength is when you
say I’m sorry for hurting you
strengthens when you can go to your
brother and say man if I offended you my
bad I’m sorry
