By fifteen, he was fully immersed in them.Matthew lived as a "street guy," embracing a code that demanded toughness, detachment, and readiness for jail, prison, or death at any moment.

Prison sentences, homelessness, violence, and countless fights became chapters in his reality.Small Steps from Death to Life: Part I is a raw and deeply personal true account of survival and endurance.
