Speaker 1: first time obviously me was I new was my first one? No,
Speaker 1: I was excited. Actually, yeah, it's kind of like an
Speaker 1: adrenaline rush. What age was I oh, I'm a bad
Speaker 1: influence thirteen. It was a really really small one. Surprisingly
Speaker 1: it wasn't stupid, but yeah, uh, it's on the inside

Speaker 1: really poetic story behind it, and I don't know. I
Speaker 1: don't want to pour you something must know. Me and
Speaker 1: my best friend at the time, we were fighting a lot,
Speaker 1: and just you know, we thought we were going to
Speaker 1: be life flung past days or whatever my thought asked
Speaker 1: thirteen yearself thought. But we ended up not being friends
Speaker 1: for a while. So basically, long story short, some things
Speaker 1: happened between us and how we hear how many things
Speaker 1: was tatting each other. So the metaphor of extending on
Speaker 1: alive branch or whatever exactly to us. We thought that
Speaker 1: it was going to be something profound, but looking back
Speaker 1: at it and it's as cheesy as a bundle of
Speaker 1: verses with nothing else. I'm not saying that's a bad tattoo.
Speaker 1: It's just I'm sorry, this is gonna aveen you pay,
Speaker 1: but kind of basic. Mm hmm. Maybe's still friends. It's
Speaker 1: a good villot question. You're not pryank yeah, I think
