*Sounds of the street, Wu-Tang St. Ide's commercial is in the background* (This is a best guess based on what's heard underneath Rae's conversation) Who's the Wallabe kid, dress down, could never be Son
(Mos Def) GOOD MORNINNNNNNNNNGG VIETNAM! Ha (back up back up back up back up back up)*repeated in background* Yo sometimes I sit back, reflect on the place that I live at Unlike any place I ever been at
