0:56 - 0:58Then one day some lawyer named Jaggers
-
0:58 - 1:01tells Pip that he about to get paid
-
1:01 - 1:03and inherit a swole fortune.

1:03 - 1:06So Pip kicks Joe's poor ass to the curb
-
1:06 - 1:07and heads to London
-
1:07 - 1:08where he gonna learn to be a player.
-
1:08 - 1:11Pip be thinkin' that Miss Havisham gave him all that cash
-
1:11 - 1:14so maybe she be preppin' him to marry Estella.
-
1:14 - 1:15One night, Pip be visited
-
1:15 - 1:17by some playa named Abel Magwitch
-
1:17 - 1:19who turns out to be the convict
-
1:19 - 1:20from the graveyard.
-
1:20 - 1:22He tells Pip that it was him
-
1:22 - 1:24who gave him all them stacks of cash.
-
1:24 - 1:25Now Pip be wiggin' out that
-
1:25 - 1:27he ain't bein' primed to marry Estella.
-
1:27 - 1:29So he rolls up to that hoe Havisham's crib
-
1:29 - 1:31and confesses his love for Estella.
-
1:31 - 1:34But that hood rat shuts this stunner down.
-
1:34 - 1:36Years later, Pip done f***ed up
-
1:36 - 1:37and ends up boned out.
-
1:37 - 1:39Uncle Joe does Pip one last solid
-
1:39 - 1:41and pays off all his debt.
-
1:41 - 1:42Now Pip be feeling like a fool
-
1:42 - 1:44for dissin' him all those years ago.
-
Not SyncedSo Pip decide to stop frontin' with them rich folk
-
Not Syncedand keep it real with the boy who got his back.
-
Not SyncedThen one day while
-
Not Syncedpeepin' the ol' Havisham crib,
-
Not SyncedPip runs into Estella
-
Not Syncedwho be off the short leashes
-
Not Syncedof her ex-husband and Havisham
-
Not Syncedand decide she want to be cool with Pip.
-
Not SyncedAt the end of the book, Pip say
-
Not Syncedhe saw no shadow of another parting from her.
-
Not SyncedNow one of the main things
-
Not Syncedmy boy Charlie D trying to say up in here
-
Not Syncedis if you makin' big ass assumptions
-
Not Syncedabout what the future holds
-
Not Syncedyou sure as hell got another thing comin', homeboy.
-
Not SyncedYou can see this here disconnect
-
Not Syncedbetween expectations and reality
-
Not Syncedin the character of Havisham.
-
Not SyncedThis broad always wearin'
-
Not Synceda old, crusty wedding dress
-
Not Syncedeven though she ain't been married!
-
Not SyncedIt's like she walkin' around everyday
-
Not Syncedshowin' that she was expecting way more
-
Not Syncedout of life than she actually got.
-
Not SyncedLikewise, Pip
-
Not Syncedalways expecting righteous things to happen to him
-
Not Syncedlike Miss H makin' him a gentleman
-
Not Syncedand getting freaky with that girl Estella
-
Not SyncedBut this stunner is blind
-
Not Syncedto the peeps that actually got his back.
-
Not SyncedFor example,
-
Not Syncedwhen Pip finds out
-
Not Syncedit was Abel that gave him those stacks of cash
-
Not Syncedand not that hag Havisham
-
Not Syncedhe gets all crunk
-
Not Synced'cause it ain't what he expected
-
Not Syncedwhen on the real
-
Not Syncedhe should be geeked up
-
Not Syncedthat he got himself a sugar daddy.
-
Not SyncedAnother theme up in here
-
Not Syncedis that having mad money
-
Not Syncedcorrupts your mind
-
Not Syncedand your social relations.
-
Not SyncedBefore Pip becomes a rich playboy
-
Not Syncedthat giddy cat Pumblechook
-
Not Syncedbe disrespecting him all the time
-
Not Syncedbut after Pip makes bank
-
Not SyncedPumblechook starts treatin' him
-
Not Syncedlike the man.
-
Not SyncedAlso when my boy Pip gets them fat pockets
-
Not Syncedhe starts dissing Joe 'cause he all poor.
-
Not SyncedOn page 197,
-
Not SyncedPip says he would even pay
-
Not Syncedto get Joe's weak ass out of his face
-
Not Syncedin spite of the fact
-
Not Syncedthat on page 127
-
Not SyncedPip straight-up calls this stunner an "angel!"
-
Not SyncedMmm.
-
Not SyncedMore money, more problems, blood.
-
Not SyncedConsider this sh*t right here.
-
Not SyncedConflicting values in this player's life
-
Not Syncedbe shown through the images of stars
-
Not Syncedand fire.
-
Not SyncedThat chick Estella's name
-
Not Syncedcomes from a Latin word
-
Not Syncedthat means 'star'.
-
Not SyncedWhereas my man Joe
-
Not Syncedbe associated with the forge and fireplace.
-
Not SyncedMy hunky Dickins links that hoe with stars
-
Not Synced'cause while those stars may be pretty,
-
Not Syncedthey straight-up unreachable,
-
Not Syncedjust like Pip's romantic expectations.
-
Not SyncedBut on the other hand,
-
Not Syncedfire is of the Earth
-
Not Syncedand Dickins links fire to him
-
Not Syncedto emphasize that down-home feeling
-
Not Syncedof life in the hood
-
Not Syncedwithout wackass delusions.
