[Bit 1]

Yo, this morning, right, this morning I came here, man.

I got a haircut, that's the first thing I did, right.

I went to the shop, I sat down, and I realized something.

You know, I realized that being a barber

is a lot harder than it looks, right.

'Cause how do you gently stroke someone's hair

and not fall in love?

It's because I went to a fancy salon, right?

Fancy salon.

This is the girl, she sat me down, right?

She sat me down.

She did everything.

She washed my hair.

I was like, whoa, I don't got the money for that.

Come on now.
