Start:

Every single day

I must make this trip to Inglewood--no problem--

and I get off the freeway like usual,

taking up as much space as I can in the truck.

[... … …]

End:

It’s not a color, it’s a person.

So this room,

it’s just gonna be

people,

just a wild place,

it’s gonna be a blast.

One day,

Lord

willing, it’ll happen.
