lose yourself

Gerhard 2022-04-22 07:01:05

Jimmy has been a loser since he was a child, with family affection: his mother lived in a dilapidated trailer with a classmate of his own school, and was still talking about the discordant sex life with her boyfriend. The birthday gift for Jimmy was a broken car that couldn't catch fire. Because her boyfriend still scolds Jimmy; Friendship: I hang out with a bunch of black dicks all day smoking marijuana and flirting with the world, and I'm going to fuck all the bitches in 313, and the only white guy shoots his own dick with a gun . I want to help my friend who is recording a demo to fuck my girl. But I can also support Jimmy during fights, and force Jimmy to participate in the game again and again; love: ex-girlfriend comes back and laughs at him for losing face in the game, and the new girl has sex with a friend; career: doing lamination in a car factory I have no money and I can only live with my mother. Because I am late, I get slapped by the black supervisor from time to time. When I participate in the competition, I am scolded by the opponent and have no ability to retaliate.

This is a deep inferiority complex imprinted in my bones. I can't accept that I still live with my mother in an old trailer, and I can't accept that my mother is living with someone my age, and I can't accept a girlfriend who sleeps with a friend. Can't accept that friends always help him make decisions, can't accept that opponents expose his shortcomings, can't accept why black executives only target him. When he was knocked down again and again by life, his girlfriend betrayed and was beaten into a panda eye, and his opponent was scolded and speechless. He knows what he wants. He needs to work hard to move out of the old trailer. He understands that he can only make money to rent a recording studio. He understands that the world does not revolve around him, and not everyone has to accommodate him. There is only one chance he can seize, and there is only one chance to detonate everyone. He can only accept himself, the incomplete and even embarrassing past. If you want to stand up again, you must face your truest self without escaping or concealing it. I know what you are going to say about me, I don't care about winning or losing, I don't care about the game, and all who question me will die. His black friend said that after signing the contract, he would not have to go back to work. After getting all the girls in 313, Jimmy knew what he had to do: I had to go back to work overtime.

  • Female Lunch Truck Rapper: [Rapping] Man, I'm so sick and tired of fucking with this steel. They only give us thirty minutes to eat lunch and chill. My body achin', just to get a buck. I'm sick of eating this shit off this fucking lunch truck. Nasty ass food, I'm in a nasty ass mood. I should've called in sick. Shit, I had something to do.

    Male Lunch Truck Rapper: [Rapping] I can't believe I'm hearing all this ravin' and rantin', from Vanessa, up in here at the New Detroit stampin. You need to get your food and take your ass back to work. Your dreamin' if you think them corny ass raps will work. Look at ya'll out here, freezin' like dumb fucks, rappin' away for food off this raggedy lunch truck. Who want what? Who pumped up to get rolled up? I spit venom in every direction, soak some up. Look at this fatass nigga. Sloppy sucker. You an ugly motherfucker. Your pop should've wore a rubber. Stop rhymin', keep your day job, Vanessa. Next time leave that bullshit home on the dresser. Speaking of dresses, take a look at Paul the fruitcake! When you travel you probably pack panties in your suitcase. Made out of lace from Victoria's secret. If ten men came in a cup, you'd probably drink it.

    B. Rabbit: [Rapping] Okay folks, enough with the gay jokes. Especially from a gay broke bitch yourself, hey lo? This guys' a doo doo. You've worked here longer then me, and I get paid more then you do. Dawg, take a seat. What's this guy standing in line for? He ain't got money to eat! Check this out. Yo yo, this guy cashed his whole paycheck, and bought one ho ho. Fucking homo. Little maggot. You can't hack it. Paul's gay, you're a faggot. At least he admits it. Don't even risk it. This guys' starvin' to death. Someone get him a biscuit! I don't know what they told you, Mike. You must had them cornrows rolled too tight. This job, you wanna quit, but you can't. You've worked at this plant so long, you're a plant. Look at your goddamn boots. For Christ's sakes, they're starting to grow roots! On this mic you get faded. You look like a pissed off rapper who never made it. Hey, why you fucking with the gay guy, G? When really you're the one who's got the HIV. Man, I'm done with this clown. It's off. Fuck it, I'll let home girl finish you off.
