LYONS: You and me is two different people, Pop. You got your way of dealing with the world… I got mine. The only thing that matters to me is the music. I know I got to eat. But I got to live too. I need something that gonna help me to get out of the bed in the morning. Make me feel like I belong in the world. I don”t bother nobody. I just stay with my music cause that”s the only way I can find to live in the world. Otherwise there ain”t no telling what I might do. Now I don”t come criticizing you and how you live. I just come by to ask you for ten dollars. I don”t wanna hear all that about how I live. You can”t change me, Pop. I”m thirty-four years old. If you wanted to change me, you should have been there when I was growing up. I come by to see you and ask for ten dollars and you want to talk about how I was raised. You don”t know nothing about how I was raised.More Monologues from “Fences”RelatedShareTweetPin
