Bobby yen yen yen.. My corpse will wake up and shout ”Shut Up all of you and put me inside the ground, let me be with lord” Bobby yen yen yen.. Pablo escobar na my mate. You didn’t get this memo and eulogy at his funeral. Now for real. I am laughing at my dumb ass. You see why i am still alive, i don’t even take myself seriously.”
