AND TO WHOEVER I END UP WITH, I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND DAYS WHERE I FEEL IF I DON'T HAVE MONEY. THAT THERE WILL BE DAYS WHERE I DON'T BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE MONEY. I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND DAYS WHERE I DON'T WANNA BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE MONEY. I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND CONDITIONED ME TO BELIEVE THAT WITHOUT MONEY I AM INVALID, THAT I AM MERELY JUST A LACK OF A BETTER WORD, USELESS MAN. TO WHOSOEVER USELESS MAN. TO WHOSOEVER I END UP WITH, I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND THAT AT TIMES I'M NOT GONNA LAUGH WHEN I DON'T HAVE MONEY. I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND THAT AT TIMES I'LL WANT TO ORDER SOMETHING, BUT I'LL ORDER IT FOR YOU INSTEAD. TO WHOSOEVER I END UP WITH, I WANT YOU TO UNDERSTAND THAT I'M MERELY JUST A PERSON WHO'S TRYING TO LIVE AS IF HE'S ALREADY REACHED HIS PINNACLE. AND TO WHOSOEVER I END UP WITH, THAT I DO HAVE MENTAL CHALLENGES.
