before spotify wrapped comes out, y’all gotta realize that i went through approximately 20 personality changes and am not responsible for whatever song i looped for seven hours
“Do me a favour. Reach deeeeep down into that vicious little heart of yours and find that neglected box way off in the far corner with all the cobwebs and like a decade’s worth of dead skin cells. You know what I’m talking about, right? It’s got a label on it, says ‘Uninhibited Ambitions’ or whatever else—maybe you call it ‘All the Shit I Would Totally Do If I Were King of the World’ or somethin’, I dunno. But I want you to dust it off, nudge all those pesky moral quandaries out of the way, and rip that bad boy open.
“And when you do, I want you to take a long, long look at what’s inside.
“Because that right there? That’s the kinda stuff I deal with: the good, the bad, the ugly, and the selfish. And don’t give me that ‘No, no, Jack, you got it all wrong! I’m not like that! I’m not selfish!’ crap. Be honest with yourself, kid. Everybody’s selfish. I mean, it’s not like anyone else out there is gonna have your best interests at heart. Might as well be you, am I right?
“’Kay, now that that little spiel’s outta the way, here’s the part where I ask you the same thing I’ve asked every other wayward soul who wound up on your side of the table: what’s the one thing you want above all else? What’s the one desire that just crushes you under its thumb?
“And more importantly: what are you willing to do to get it?
“I know, I know. Loaded question. Trust me, I get that a lot. You’d be surprised, though. Doesn’t matter who they are or where they’re from—every single soul out there has a price they’re willing to pay.
“Take your time, though. Seriously. Think it over. No rush.
