Smile, even though it's breaking

When there are clouds in the sky

You'll get by

Smile through the pain and sorrow

What?

Smile and maybe tomorrow

You'll see the sun come shining through

For you

Shut the f*** up!

I'm expressing myself over here, nigga.

Light up your face with gladness

Hide every trace of sadness

And although a tear is ever so near

That's the time you must keep on trying

Smile, what's the use of crying?

You suck!

You'll find that life

is still worthwhile

If you just smile

Motherf***er!

Shut the f*** up!

Smile, though your heart is aching...

Rap, you motherf***er!

Rap!

Take care of yourself.

You, too.

Well,

you got everything?

Yep. Got my cell phone.

Everything.

That's good.

Have a safe flight.

Thanks.

Listen, I'm going to be in L.A.

in October.

This gallery wants to

showcase my photos.

Send you an invite.

You can bring your wife.

You know I can't go, right?

It's very nice to meet you, Andre Allen.

It's great to finally meet you,

Chelsea Brown.

Fry or die.

Yo, Chels!

What's your top five?

Salt-N-Pepa,

Tribe Called Quest,

The Roots,

Public Enemy,

Kanye.

And I get six, man.

Slick Rick the Ruler!

Slick Rick.

Take care.

You, too.

She's a little skinny for my taste.

But if it was me,

I would be up there right now.

I wouldn't worry about Erica.

One way or another,

she's going to end up on top.

Can't have 'em all, man.

I'm not talking about having 'em all.

I'm talking about having her.

What you got in that gift bag, man?

Let me check.

Got some vodka. Okay.

In my gift bag.

Somebody wasn't thinking about me.

I'll take that off your hands.

What else you got, man?

Got a jasmine-scented candle.

Definitely something I would give a man.

I got a Mexican chica.

She loves candles. She's a candle b*tch.

What else you got?

Gourmet nuts.

You know I love some nuts.

That's for me. Give me those.

There you go.

Hopefully honey-roasted.

When they put the honey on the nuts?

That's a whole

different world right there.

And let's see.

A gift certificate for...

That's when they took it to a new level.

You know me, I'm a snacker.

Now, if they could find a way

to put the honey inside the...

Some kind of cloning sh*t, I don't know.

Is that cloning?

Yo, Silk.

- You want the top five?

- Yes!

Yes.

Here it is.

Sugarhill Gang,

- Eminem...

- Right.

Wale,

Ice Cube...

...and Sir Mix-A-Lot!

Yes!

"Put 'em on the glass"!
