Speaker 1

Y'all already seen the flick, you already know the storm that I've been through, and praise God, I have made it on the other side.

Speaker 1

I made up my mind when I walked out that hospital that I'm gonna celebrate everywhere I got for the 20s.

Speaker 2

Yep.

Speaker 1

30s was a CD.

Speaker 1

We headed to the 40s.

Speaker 1

It's about to it's about to get serious now, DJ.

Look at it, you got a you got a cassette tape over there?

Speaker 2

Yes, sir.

Speaker 1

And let me tell you something.

Speaker 1

I don't give a shit if all the ribbon is hanging out.

Speaker 1

Get you a number two pencil.

Speaker 1

Put it on the right side and cut it clockwise.

Speaker 1

Till you get all that ribbon back up in there.

Speaker 1

We ain't gonna mess up this mixtape.

Speaker 1

Cause it took us too long to make this shit.

Speaker 1

We had to wait for the DJ on the radio to shut the fuck up.

Speaker 1

So we can hit play and record at the same

Speaker 1

time.

Speaker 2

Put your hands up.

Speaker 1

Come on, come on.

It's Friday night.

Speaker 1

Let me ask you something, DJ.

Speaker 1

You got an eight track over there.

Speaker 2

Of course I do.

Speaker 1

Now in case y'all forgot, it's about that thick.

Speaker 1

By yay loan.

Speaker 1

When you pop it in, three quarters of it be hanging out there.

Speaker 1

Back.

Speaker 1

But don't worry about it.

Speaker 1

That shit is in there real good.

Speaker 1

It's a little button on the side that says select.

Speaker 1

And if you keep hitting that button, it's a red light gonna go down the line until it gets to the song that you're looking for.

Speaker 1

Now, 50s.

Speaker 1

Don't fuck this up.

Speaker 1

We cannot let the 40s outdo us.

Speaker 1

Because 50s, guess what?

Speaker 1

We are the shit.

Speaker 1

Make no mistake about it.

Speaker 1

You know why we the shit?

Speaker 1

Because 40s are looking at where they own their way to.

Speaker 1

And the 60s are looking back at the shit they just left.

Speaker 1

We are smacked down in the middle of life.

Speaker 1

We are the shit.

Speaker 1

And 50s, you already know.

Speaker 1

All of us are going through the same thing.

Speaker 1

We all living the same life.

Speaker 1

Because you can rest assured 50s here and across this world.

Speaker 1

All of us got a shitload of medicine on our nightstand right now.

Speaker 1

You don't even need a label on that shit.

Speaker 1

You know what it is.

Speaker 1

You take that yellow one in the morning, you take that red one around noon, and there's shit going right at your house.

Speaker 1

You take that blue one at night.

Speaker 1

You know.

Speaker 1

We are all living the same life.

Speaker 1

Because I can guarantee you, if you are in your 50s, there's no way in the world that you can go to bed without that bottle of water on your damn nightstand.

Speaker 1

You already know you're gonna wake up about 1:30, dry it in the mud.

Speaker 1

You can't make it to the kitchen, that's too damn far.

Speaker 1

You need that water, you depending on that water.

Speaker 1

That's a lifeline, but you don't make it to the moral morning.

Speaker 1

So 50s, let's let them know that we still shit.

Speaker 1

We're gonna pop this eight track in, and y'all better lose your damn mind.

Speaker 1

DJ, eight-track.
