00:00You guys saw me, I don't know if you saw me, but I had a couple of tears fall down a little bit.
00:04I know it's bigger than me, you know. I'm here right now, we're present right now, but
00:09I know this moment goes way beyond just now, and way beyond the years that I will exist in life.
00:17Next to my statue was Kobe Bryant's statue, getting made at the same time, the exact same time.
00:24And every time I show up, it's more work done on Kobe's statue, but it ain't nobody,
00:28Kobe's not there. I'm there, I'm looking at mine, I'm touching mine, I'm talking about mine,
00:35but Kobe isn't. And it put everything in perspective for me, you know what I mean,
00:39when we talk about being immortal, we talk about the life after.
00:49Going through this process really gave me an opportunity to see it,
00:53to see it. My brother's not here to see, to have this moment that I have.
