00:14Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:15Yeah, I've been getting some calls.
00:16Oh.

00:18Not worried.
00:19And I know that I was kind of that outlet for you.
00:20You were.
00:21So why don't you just tell me what's been going on?
00:23Okay.

00:27Nice, clean nigga.
00:28Did me dirtier than laundry.
00:30Took a scroll through his IG just to get a DM from his wifey.
00:35I was so confused.
00:36What should she do?
00:37She didn't know about me, and I didn't know about Sue.
00:40I opened up the messages and had to hit the Zoom.
00:42Turns out the girl was really a dude.
00:45Nigga think he slicked back till I slicked back.
00:48Got my lick back.

01:26And they do.
01:27Fast forward me, 2023.
01:29I'm stacking lots of cheese and making money.
