The fish always gets bigger.
Every year we tell a story.
Come on, go with it, all right?
Yeah.
But the lying, all of a sudden, I don't know my own.
I don't know when I'm emanating something and creating something, telling the truth, being authentic or lying.
And I'm, shit, all of a sudden I'm leaving crumbs with myself.

No, no, no, no, no, no.
Hold back on that.
Let's go back to base love.
