That's the thing it's like .
Sometimes you just gotta write your own story instead of like letting the fans write the story for you , because otherwise it's not even your story . You know what I'm saying . Uh , that's it for book news . Uh , as far as music , nothing really came across my dashboard , uh , so to speak .
