"It'd be easy for me to go back to my old life, but I know where
that old life leads you. You're either behind prison bars or six
feet underground." Terroll Lewis has lived a crazy life. Growing up
on Brixton's Myatt's Field estate, he was surrounded by gang
culture, and like so many other young people, he found it hard to
resist the lifestyle. By the time he was 15, he had already joined
a gang, been stabbed, shot at, and was selling drugs. A chance to
play professional football offered a way out, but the lure of an
easier life - the promise of girls, money, and cars - led him back
to South London and the notorious OC, or Organised Crime, gang.
Violence and drug dealing were the norm in OC, but Terroll has long
since turned his back on this world, though the association with OC
endures through the ink on his skin. These days Terroll's giving
something back; Block Workout, a street-gym he founded in his old
neighbourhood, gives young men an opportunity to follow a different
road to the one he took during his adolescence - helping them
develop their minds as well as their bodies - and the chance to
live a better life.
