“2027 is definitely a wrap for me. I f***ed my heart up on the right side, right here. It's like, black. It's like done. I f***ed up. You know why? Because I think I thought I had more weight. I thought I was a big n***a, so I could handle all the alcohol. I could handle all the Adderall. I could handle all the drugs. I could handle everything, but I couldn't. My shit is fucked up. And it curbed my time here,” Ray J said.
