[Bit 1]

I do a lot of white shit.

I hunt, I fish, I swim.

I changed the batteries in my smoke detector.

It's so weird to me that black people

never hear those fucking smoke detectors.

It's like it's fucking soothing to them,

you know what I'm saying?

I went to one of my friend's house the other day

and his smoke detector was beeping.

I'm like, "Nigga, you don't hear that shit?"

He's like, "Yeah, that mean is working."

I'm like, "What the?"

I'm like, "No, the fuck is not."

No, but black people, we don't hear that shit.

We don't change our fucking smoke detectors, bro.

You ever heard the saying,

if you wanna hide something from a nigga, put it in a book?

I didn't make it, I just repeated it.

I don't think that's true.

I think if you wanna hide something from a nigga,

you should put it in a smoke detector.

Because we never checked that shit.

The fucking cure for diabetes

is in the fucking smoke detector.
