LET'S SHADOW NAS IN FULL AGAIN!
My entire life I grew up around people who smoke all the time. // And when everyone around you smokes, / you are more likely to smoke as well. // But / I / didn't. // I have not smoked a single cigarette in my life, / not only because of health, / but because smoking is expensive. // See, / back home / one cigarette pack / costs an average of ten bucks. // If you smoke one pack per day, / that's three hundred bucks per month, / and three thousand six hundred bucks per year. // And because smoking is so addicting, / that / could be up to a hundred and forty-four thousand dollars in a lifetime of smoking. // I did this exact math at age ten / and realize / instead of burning this money / dollar / by dollar, / I'd rather save it up / dollar / by dollar / and buy an actual Ferrari / for a hundred and forty-four thousand dollars. // So that when I retire, / I can drive a Ferrari / with healthy / lungs. // That's one minute. // See you tomorrow.//
