I'm trying to tell the listener this like,

some moments.

But like I'm not alone cuz I got Blanco Deseo.

Like making up like funky just like just make it just

go.

It gives you more feeling and more replay.

You would have heard it if I

said Blanco Reposado.

Trying to ease my mind.

I'm going to free my mind.

Got a threesome with these demons.

I'mma need some time.

The threesome is myself,

clear tequila, and Reposado.

They they they're the they're the two vices.

I'm trying to get

through this event.

Like I just did BET Awards.

I got like blitzed.

As soon as I got in the car,

it was like in my mind I'm like

this is not normal.

I need a shot to like fix this

cuz I'm like really I'm like really trying

to

address her about it.

It's just it's like I'm like this is why I make Blanco.

out.

She made me numb.

She made me smile.

She made me talk more.

She made me loud.

She know I'm a miserable She know I hate a crowd.

Like I'm notorious for not

smiling for real.

Like I just I'm not I It's not that I don't want to smile.

It's just that I don't I feel awkward smiling.

That's just how we grew up.

If I'm loosening up and I got

I got one or two with me, I might be more prone to do it do so.

You take a

little, you talk.

You can actually get me to talk too much.

I'mma be loud.

Here

we go.

Back again.

Got enough to go around so tell all your friends.

Soon as the club over, put them

all in bands.

Will I remember this tomorrow?

Well, it all depends.

Now we going back to the

days of like club hosting and a lot of girls in this promo.

I don't know y'all.

I don't really There ain't going to be no connect.

There's not going to be

nothing.

But we can all have a good time.

But I'm turning on the person that

I believe that I'm expected to be for

the club promoter, the women that's

around that see me on TV or whatever.

I'm trying to I want to be this person.

I don't want to let them down.

Will I remember this tomorrow?

I don't bet.

But I know you know what I'm saying?

Like I got

through it.

I woke up in the four in the

morning, went to bed at the four in

the morning,

in the club for an hour or something.

I was up for like 48 hours from the

capital back to my huddle.

Hangover and back to Rodale.

Making sure that my

circle is tight.

So nobody I know got an angle.

Circle don't got no angle.

>> Circle Circle is tight, so nobody I know got an angle.

It's almost an acceptance.

I know everybody got an angle here, and

I don't judge y'all because this is

where y'all This is city of for you.

But I don't want to participate.

I've been through that that backstabbing

too much.

I'll be drinking whatever this is.

Water brown cuz I got to be gold in

my beautiful house.

No friends.

Me and my way with my cuz I'm ego.

My mama

don't ever say hi.

She say, "Why are you single?" I say, "Mommy, I'm sorry.

I'm

trying." Nobody going to love me like she do.

And nobody going to love me like

she do.

And nobody be loving like we do.

The pressure of being the first millionaire in your bloodline and I'm married.

I could do 60,000

people rolling loud.

Yeah.

So, what are What are you doing with your life?

Like it's like okay.

Pressure, paranoia, family pressure, industry pressure, pressure to be who they want me to be.

So Mommy, I'm sorry.

I'm trying.

But nobody going to love me like she do.

I'd rather be drunk and know than be

dumb and trying to be

Never mind.

That's probably my ego.

Whatever you can think of in that bar and a half.

Let me dumb and trying to be

shallow.

Stupid.

Foolish.

Gullible.

Overly confident.

Too sad.

Too broken down.

Whatever that thought was, it's probably my ego.

I have a very very unorthodox style right now.

In this particular

moment or for the past like year or

two, I'll get a driver to drive me

around and

I'll just just think just listen to anything to try to spark something.

I

don't have a bunch of writers and stuff

around, so I just got to wait for

it to

come.

Sometimes it take 3 hours, sometimes it take 4 hours, sometimes it take 20 minutes.
