[Bit 1]

- Y'all out there hustling and grinding,
doing the thing every day?
Yeah, yeah.
And I wake up early sometimes, and you
kind of feel the weight of the world.
And I kind of just think about inspirational quotes
from the founding fathers.
I think it's crazy how he idealized them.
But early to bed, early to rise, makes you healthy,
wealthy, and wise.
And then what?
You get to fuck the slaves or whatever?
That's not bad.
And this is what we all take to heart, you know?
Thomas Jefferson, whatever you do,
act like the whole world's watching.
Watching you fuck the slaves.
