2021-11-2 A NEW BEGINNING IN MY LIFE

[0:12 - 0:14] What's up everybody?
[0:22 - 0:28] This is probably gonna be the most upsetting video for you guys
[0:29 - 0:32] And just as equally the hardest video
[0:33 - 0:37] I've ever had to make
[0:37 - 0:53] And as you guys know a lot's been going on over the last few days and the last several months
[0:53 - 1:00] If you guys don't know me, my name is Chance Wilkins
[1:01 - 1:03] I'm a music artist
[1:05 - 1:07] A regular artist. I've been doing arts since I was a kid
[1:09 - 1:19] And my last video on YouTube has been a fun one. It's been interesting
[1:22 - 1:23] but
[1:23 - 1:28] over the past two years, I've kind of lost sight of
[1:31 - 1:34] What I should be doing and what I want to do with my life
[1:34 - 1:50] Me and my wonderful girlfriend has been along for the ride for the past four years who has held me down since day one
[1:51 - 1:54] Who I can honestly say I love to the moon and back
[1:57 - 2:03] Me and her were talking last night with you know, my mother-in-law and my father-in-law
[2:04 - 2:06] Shout out to my mom and papa. Love you guys
[2:08 - 2:11] Shout out to her brothers who are my brother-in-law. I fucking love you guys
[2:12 - 2:28] We were all talking with my own family with my mom's and my stepdad and I finally came to a conclusion
[2:28 - 2:30] That
[2:30 - 2:32] My time on YouTube is done
[2:34 - 2:41] I don't know how else to put it except that I
[2:42 - 2:44] Need to cut YouTube out of my life
[2:45 - 2:50] Now don't get me wrong
[2:50 - 3:01] YouTube can be a very very powerful platform for a lot of good stuff. And for me, that's how it started out
[3:03 - 3:10] but over the last two years, I've lost sight of
[3:10 - 3:12] Of
[3:12 - 3:21] Who I am as a person I've lost sight of what I really want to do with my life
[3:21 - 3:33] For the past two years, I spent more time defending my content than actually creating
[3:33 - 3:42] you know, my girlfriend helped me see that I
[3:43 - 3:45] Don't need the negative shit in my fucking life
[3:46 - 3:56] over the last eight months my
[3:58 - 4:00] major major way
[4:01 - 4:06] And I come to find out last signs that the people that have been attacking are actually criminals
[4:08 - 4:10] And they've done a lot of bad stuff
[4:11 - 4:25] But honestly man to the real supporters that have shown love and support. I just want to say thank y'all
[4:25 - 4:33] Like all the letters all the fan mail everything all the cool shit y'all done for me
[4:33 - 4:40] On behalf of my girlfriend and myself and my family and our family. I
[4:40 - 4:49] Want to say thank you because everything you guys have done is been so awesome, but
[4:50 - 4:53] To be honest with you. I lost sight of
[4:54 - 4:56] Who I am as a person
[4:56 - 5:02] Who I am as an artist and I want to get that back
[5:02 - 5:08] you know, I want to be able to create music again, like I was doing before all this shit started and
[5:10 - 5:16] Me being on YouTube is not doing that any fucking good at all
[5:17 - 5:19] if anything
[5:19 - 5:24] YouTube for me has become a detriment. It's become toxic and
[5:26 - 5:38] I don't need any toxicity in my life. I really don't like
[5:41 - 5:49] Starting on YouTube was fun. I started out making AMVs and then from there I started doing music and gaming videos and
[5:50 - 5:52] Just kind of went from there
[5:52 - 5:57] But over these past two years, I've lost sight of who I was as a person
[5:57 - 6:02] It diluted my mind so much that I began
[6:03 - 6:07] Lashing out I began attacking people that I care about
[6:08 - 6:13] These last two years have been the hardest two years my life. I
[6:16 - 6:23] Lost my best friend because of YouTube. I lost my job with a very good friend
[6:25 - 6:31] I lost that friend that gave me that job. I lost a friendship of
[6:31 - 6:35] the owner of the legendary label Machiavelli Records
[6:36 - 6:39] Who was a very dear friend of me and always helped me out
[6:40 - 6:47] I've lost quite a bit in the last two years that I didn't think I would ever lose and
[6:49 - 6:52] to be honest, I
[6:53 - 6:58] Don't want to lose anymore. I don't want to risk losing
[6:58 - 7:01] Any more people then
[7:02 - 7:04] I've already lost
[7:04 - 7:15] You know YouTube has become very cancerous to me very toxic and I don't need it in my life
[7:15 - 7:27] I do not need that kind of toxicity in my life. I want to be able to focus on my music again
[7:27 - 7:31] Doing what I should have been doing the whole time focusing on my music
[7:31 - 7:34] Focusing on my girl our family our future together
[7:36 - 7:40] My personal family and my friends. I need to be focusing on
[7:41 - 7:52] That kind of stuff. I don't need to be focusing on toxic shit like YouTube or all this bullshit
[7:54 - 7:56] because all this has
[7:57 - 8:07] Deluded what I've been trying to do the whole time and I don't need that kind of toxic shit in my life
[8:07 - 8:08] I
[8:08 - 8:19] Really don't because when I was sitting down talking to my girl last night like she really
[8:21 - 8:25] She really put it into perspective for me and told me like, you know, this ain't you
[8:26 - 8:30] this is not the chance that I met four years ago and
[8:31 - 8:39] She's right. I've become somebody that I don't even recognize anymore
[8:39 - 8:47] I lost my path on what I wanted to do with my life and I
[8:48 - 8:54] Lost sight of not only who I was but what I wanted to do with my life and
[8:56 - 9:03] Honestly, I want to get back on that path and the only way I can get back on that path is by cutting YouTube out
[9:03 - 9:05] of my life for good
[9:05 - 9:13] And I know what you guys are thinking. Oh, he'll come he'll be coming back in 24 hours or so or in a couple days
[9:13 - 9:15] No, I won't
[9:15 - 9:17] I'm not coming back after this. I
[9:19 - 9:23] Am not gonna be coming back because I want to focus on myself
[9:24 - 9:29] My music my future with my wonderful future wife
[9:30 - 9:33] My my mother-in-law my father-in-law
[9:34 - 9:39] Who I love to the morning back. So shout out to my mom pop. I'll fucking love you guys
[9:40 - 9:48] You know focusing on my family my friends friends that I haven't spoken to in a very long time
[9:48 - 9:53] Like I want to focus on those things again and in order for me to be able to do that
[9:53 - 9:55] I need to leave YouTube for good
[9:56 - 9:59] YouTube has become
[10:00 - 10:02] in my eyes a cesspool of
[10:03 - 10:07] Negativity and toxic bullshit that I don't need in my life
[10:08 - 10:12] Because let me tell you something
[10:12 - 10:20] Before all this shit started. I was doing good. I was doing real good. I had
[10:21 - 10:26] So much going for me in the right direction and somewhere along the way I
[10:26 - 10:33] Somehow really got drugged in to all this bullshit that I didn't want to be drugged into
[10:34 - 10:39] by legitimate criminals and that
[10:42 - 10:44] Deserved to be locked away, honestly
[10:45 - 10:50] because I did find out some information about William Gloria, and
[10:52 - 10:54] he is
[10:54 - 10:56] He is a
[10:57 - 10:59] He is a criminal
[10:59 - 11:02] he's a wanted fugitive by the law and
[11:03 - 11:05] the stuff he's done to myself
[11:06 - 11:08] my girl's family and
[11:11 - 11:16] God knows how many other people he is a wanted felon and
[11:18 - 11:27] I don't want to risk being drugged into any more of his bullshit and
[11:27 - 11:35] Quite honestly the best thing for me to do so I can focus on my music again
[11:36 - 11:43] So I can focus on doing what I love for my girls so I can build a future for me in my future life is
[11:45 - 11:47] To leave this toxic platform
[11:50 - 11:56] But everybody that that is out there that has actually shown me true love and support. I want to say thank you guys
[11:58 - 12:02] all the fucking all the letters all the
[12:03 - 12:10] The cool shit that y'all sent like that shit. I'm gonna be posting up on my wall in my studio to remind me
[12:12 - 12:15] That I need to stay grounded and focused
[12:16 - 12:21] All the little notes all the letters like all that shit. I'm gonna be posting up in my studio
[12:23 - 12:29] But from here on out, I'm not gonna be posting on here anymore. I'm gonna be
[12:30 - 12:35] Looking for another platform where I can post my music focus on what I love to do
[12:35 - 12:39] And build a future for me and my girl and our families
[12:40 - 12:47] Like that's what I want to do and being on here is not gonna get that done
[12:50 - 12:52] Being on here was fun. Don't get me wrong
[12:54 - 12:58] But you know how they say all good things must come in
[12:59 - 13:03] well this for me is my end on this platform and
[13:05 - 13:11] It's been a fun journey. It really has it has been a very fun journey. I've enjoyed
[13:12 - 13:14] everything immensely
[13:14 - 13:18] My time on this platform has been one that I'll never forget
[13:19 - 13:32] but honestly, I need to focus on myself on my girl and my future with her and building a life for us and
[13:34 - 13:36] Doing what I love to do
[13:40 - 13:44] That needs to come first above being on here
[13:45 - 13:50] Because being on here is not gonna build me a future what's gonna build me a future is doing what I love to do
[13:51 - 13:53] buckling down on
[13:53 - 13:56] Everything getting my stuff done getting my stuff, right?
[13:58 - 14:00] Being on here is not doing it any good
[14:00 - 14:16] So with that being said to all the fans that have shown a lot of support
[14:19 - 14:21] Don't worry about me
[14:21 - 14:27] I'm fine. Just know that to all my all my fans my supporters out there
[14:28 - 14:33] Cuz I know why y'all are gonna worry but to y'all I'm saying this
[14:33 - 14:35] You don't need to worry about me
[14:35 - 14:40] Cuz I'm fine. I'm heading in a very good direction in my life and
[14:41 - 14:48] Things are going good
[14:48 - 14:50] things are going really good in my life and
[14:51 - 14:59] You know things are going in a good direction for me. I want y'all to know that
[15:01 - 15:07] Someday in the very far future when I have my stuff together. I might come back. I don't know
[15:08 - 15:15] But I can tell you right now that I am not coming back for a very very long time
[15:16 - 15:19] Because I want to focus on what I love to do. I
[15:20 - 15:22] want to focus on my girl
[15:24 - 15:26] My future with her and our family
[15:27 - 15:30] Because being with my girl and our future
[15:31 - 15:37] That means more to me than being on here. I would rather
[15:38 - 15:43] You know, I would rather leave this platform
[15:44 - 15:51] And build a future for me and my girl than to stay on here and lose the one person that means more to me than
[15:51 - 15:59] Anything so that everybody that has shown love and support to me all these years. I want to say thank you
[15:59 - 16:03] You guys have been fucking amazing. You guys have been awesome and
[16:04 - 16:10] All the fun memories that we've shared on other people's streams hanging out
[16:11 - 16:16] Having fun all the coffee and chills hanging out with you know, my homie voodoo ninja
[16:17 - 16:21] Hang out with Courtney and everybody that you know has rocked with me all this time, man
[16:21 - 16:26] I want to say thank y'all all the fucking letters the notes all that shit
[16:26 - 16:30] Like I said, I'm gonna be posting that up here in my studio
[16:31 - 16:38] To remind me of the good times and to remind me that I do have people out there that do enjoy what?
[16:38 - 16:46] Music I have out and so with that being said, I don't know how else to put this
[16:48 - 16:51] Except for I love you guys and
[16:53 - 16:59] I'll see y'all on the other side man. I hope you guys take care of yourselves
[16:59 - 17:03] I hope y'all take them. I hope y'all look out for the ones that you love
[17:04 - 17:10] And I hope you guys do well for yourselves and I hope nothing but the best for every single one of y'all
[17:10 - 17:16] But with that being said, I love you guys
[17:17 - 17:24] Thank you all so much for the memories. Thank you guys so much for allowing a strange weird motherfucker
[17:24 - 17:26] Like me to do what he loves to do
[17:27 - 17:37] But with that being said y'all, I fucking love you guys. I hope you guys take care of yourselves
[17:37 - 17:46] I hope y'all stay safe and I hope to see y'all sometime in the near future at a show
