been at my house, counting my shit. Tiĉany, this is

They took her to the hospital. They ran her file and stuff.
Police: “Oh, she’s a mental patient.”
Tiffany: “She’s not a criminal. I’ve been telling you this

Police: “Who did that to you?”
Tiffany: “My mom did, but no, I do not want to press

help. She needs the right doctors.”
She went into a mental institution then. She has been in
and out, ever since.
