Welcome (Live from The Sun Rose)
[Spoken]
Shut up
How's everybody doin' tonight?
Not gon' lie to you, this cool as fuck
It's pretty goddamn cool
Welcome to the On Top of the Covers, one night only
But also a second night and then a third night gotta end it afterwards
Touring
I appreciate y'all being here, man, this means a lot, this, you know
Sold out quick as hell
All you freaky internet people that somehow got those tickets
I don't know how y'all did it, hahahaha
Hackers, uh
I gotta tell you, it was some scary shit that happened in the–
We almost cancelled the show
Um, I straight up got too excited and just blew my voicе out in rehearsal
And just didn't–
Everybody's just, "Keep–, takе care of yourself, man"
Uh, yes sir, I'll do that, hand me that tequila, please
But, no, I, I, we gathered up strength
Lil Rod gave me the strength and told me to carry on
Make sure things happen, you know what I mean?
So I'm glad we're doin' this
And it kinda put things into a weird perspective
If you sit back and just really, really think about
The shit you're going through and the shit you're afraid of
And the, the, the magnitude of it
It's only as great as it is to you
Because everybody else around me wasn't worried at all
And I'm like, "Dude, I'm about to end my whole career in front of, like, a hundred-and-somethin' people
Because I'm not gon' be able to sing shit when we get there and
I'ma be mad"
But when you think about other shit that's goin' on in the world
It makes it seem like all your problems is just like a stubbed toe
It's like, and then you gotta think about
"Did you have a bad day or did you have a bad five minutes that you fuckin' talked about all day?"
Then you followin' your friends around, fuckin' takin' them down
"And let me tell you what else this motherfucker did"
"Then, I told the bitch I wanted it in all quarters, and then"
Like, no, don't, don't bring your friends down, Jesus Christ
But make sure everybody's up
And make sure you put things into perspective and make sure you know that
It's just, you know, dust in the fucking wind
I don't mean to sound cliché, but we are
That's just what it is
Uh, it's good to sit back and be able to look at yourself and say
"You know what? That's life"
