(Catch Me If You Can)
[Frank Abagnale Sr.]
Two little mice fell in a bucket of cream.
The first mouse quickly gave up and drowned.
The second mouse, wouldn't quit.
He struggled so hard that eventually he churned that cream into butter and crawled out.
Gentlemen, as of this moment, I am that second mouse.
*standing ovation*
(Piano is an original melody by Patrick O'Dea)(With a considerable backstory)
(It's A Wonderful Life)
"Mary, I know what I'm going to do tomorrow and the next day and the next year and the year after that.
I'm going to leave this little town far behind and I'm going to see the world.
Italy, Greece, the Parthenon...the Coliseum.
Then I'm coming back here and I'll go to college and see what they know
and then I'm going to build things.
I'm going to build air fields.
I'm going to build skyscrapers a hundred stories high.
I'm going to build bridges a mile long. Well, are you going to throw a rock?
(Mary breaks a window)
Hey, that's impressive. What did you wish, Mary?"
*Train Passes in the distance*
(Tik
Tok)
'Guys, you know when you get those moments where like
you're vibing,
then you get these moments where youre hella anxious
where youre just like
word, things just got like real intense.
n'whatimean?
Does that resonate?
or like..
You feel that?'
*Kanye West x Pharrell Type Beat*
(natedady)
yessir.
welcome to the third installment.
You know what it is man
If you're still listening
then youre having a good time.
thats all we're here for man we're just trying to catch a good vibe.
(Kanye West)
Why not follow your heart?
Why not follow what makes you happy?
I remember when I -
I mean when the song,
American Werew-
I mean, the movie
"American Werewolf in Paris"
Came out and they had the theme song,
I think it was by Blur.
"Nothing hurts like your mouth, mouth, mouth.
Then like, me and my friends used to love that song so much.
and it's like we weren't supposed to like the song or something. Cause of where we were from.
but we liked songs that like umm
"Kiss me under the moving sunlight,"
All these songs with just incredible melodies
from the 80s, a lot of the 90s stuff.
people keep saying the 80s stuff
but there were like, these,
'Mr. Jones & me..'
Like, all these sweeping melodies. And Like Nirvana and shit like that.
And..I'm like, I really love music and I love to sing songs & I can make music..So why not just make music? Like...y'know?
(Nina Simone)
I'm very emotional.
I'm very disciplined.
But I'm very emotional, and when I don't like something I say it immediately.
Immediately. When I don't like it. Ya know...
So, I think people would say I've got a hot temper.
I think so...

there's three keys to keeping people impoverished:
Taking away their esteem.
Taking away their resources.
Taking away their role models.
My role models are artist merchants
— less than 10 I can name in history.
*Plane Taking Off*
[JayZ "The Prelude"](Superfly Exerpt)
You know you got this fantasy in your head about
getting out of the life
and setting the corporate world on its heels.
what the fuck you gonna do? except hustle?
Besides pimpin' you really aint got the stomach for that...
(Tik
Tok Audio)
Lying is the worst thing in the world,
it's like giving people a jigsaw puzzle & saying all the pieces are there
and they aren't all there.
it's messing with someone else's world.
I hate liars, you asked me the perfect question.
I think there are people who -
I don't mind people who praise themselves up,
or think that they are the greatest person in the world,
that isn't lying.
Lying is saying something that you know exactly
isn't true & you're screwing with someone else's reality cause they can't put the pieces together.
People lie very successfully to me
I can't believe people are lying to me, I can't think of people in their lies.
I cannot deal in lies.
(Tik Tok Audio)
You're such a cock bro.
Fuckin pig dude,
'Don't let him do that to you...'
I been there for you since day one!
(Questionnaire)
Excuse me sir?
Should a man who does not truly love himself, try to help others love themselves? or should anyone try to help anyone?
Should anyone help another?
I wonder sir what you mean by help another?
The doctor helps you, if it is a good doctor.
A good dietician. A sign will tell you how to go to a certain place.
They're all help, aren't they?
But, when you assume you can help another,
you have already taken a position.
And therefore, that position becomes authoritative.
and therefore, you destroy all senses of humility.
Helping sir, is like the scent of a flower, on the wayside.
It is there.
The perfume ,the color, the beauty.
The quiet sense of flowering is there.
And if you want to smell it, smell it, but if you don't, don't.
& that is help.
You have something to give....
Give without knowing you are giving...
You listen to me. You say you don't want to tell me how to live my life. So what do you think you've been doing? You tell me what rights I've got or haven't got, and what I owe to you for what you've done for me. Let me tell you something. I owe you nothing!
If you carried that bag a million miles, you did what you're supposed to do!
Because you brought me into this world.
And from that day you owed me everything you could ever do for me like I will owe my son if I ever have another.
But you don't own me! You can't tell me when or where I'm out of line, or try to get me to live my life according to your rules.
You don't even know what I am, Dad,
you don't know who I am.
You don't know how I feel, what I think.
And if I tried to explain it the rest of your life you will never understand.
You are 30 years older than I am.
You and your whole lousy generation believes the way it was for you is the way it's got to be.
And not until your whole generation has lain down and died will the dead weight of you be off our backs!
(Martin Luther King, Jr.)
I have a dream today...
I must confess that that dream that I had that day has in many points turned into a nightmare. Now I'm not one to lose hope. I keep on hoping. I still have faith in the future. But I've had to analyze many things over the last few years and I would say over the last few months.
I've gone through a lot of soul-searching and agonizing moments. And I've come to see that we have many more difficulties ahead and some of the old optimism was a little superficial and now it must be tempered with a solid realism.
