    its not franks mom. its a friend of his' mom. it says so in his magazine, theres an interview with her. she leaves voicemails like this to her son and friends all the time.frank put it on here ironically. the opening line of the next song says "gone of tabs of that acid" lol.

      "weed heads become sluggish lazy stupid and unconcerned" like there arent highly functional stoners. theres nothing wrong with drinking or smoking from time to time, or even chronically for some people. if ur fine with not living till ur 90's that is. and frank does do drugs.. so yea its ironic.

    yall please do not take what this woman said personally. Think of it as a parent/adult wanting better for their child. I think it's sweet how she is taking the time out of her day to leave a voicemail to show her love for her child. BE YOURSELF! that's all she is trying to get across.

    But like what is being yourself really tho? She's saying that he needs to be himself but then lists all the things he shouldn't do. So her version of being himself is the person she wants him to be. Not really who he is as a person but what she tried to raise him as. Love that this came before Solo too such a perfect little interlude.

      she was simply suggesting people under influence was not in a sensible mind, therefore not in their true self. it's totally right. she's just a bit too judgmental about it. it's okay to get drunk or smoke pot as long as you don't indulge.

    This women is speaking nothing but facts, many kids get hooked on drugs and weed, just to fit in with the crowd because they are “afraid” to be that odd kid out. Because In our society, drinking & smoking makes you look cool. People don’t want to be labeled as lame they want to fit in. But in reality drinking/doing drugs is awful for your physical/mental health. I like this song. I appreciate this song, it’s also good advice. The haters are the same people who are drug addicts & alcoholics.

    Be yourself in terms of that positive mindset, beliefs and choices that you have. Like when you were a child your perspective about life was pure and innocent. You didn’t t believe in drugs, alcohol and smoking. You knew those things were bad for you. So Be yourself don’t allow bad influences and society to corrupt you. Be yourself and know that that’s good enough. You don’t have to be anybody else. If you grew up in a real Christian family then follow Jesus Christ. If you didn’t then you should. Get to know God through the Bible and Prayer.

    The twist about this interlude is that it isn't influential in any way. Except, it is the mindset of most our parents, and how they want us to be like they want us to be. She isn't telling this person to be themselves, but instead telling them to be like her expectations. I think she only says these things for her child's benefits, but, do not take these words for granted. Be Yourself. And thank you Frank, you're a genius.

    she is not slapping yall weed users.
    She's targetting the abusers of drugs. Drugs, indeed when abused make you sluggish all the time.
    This is backed by facts and stats, you can tell me artists stay high all the time but for most of the ordinary working men its best for them to stay sober, performance is more valued than creativity. I mean in working sometimes you do have to came up with brilliant ideas and out of the box thinking but mostly you'd be there to get shits done. Occasional smoking is okay iguess. But the mom doesnt know that, in fact, it is we who dont even know the story here. This is not Frank's mom, maybe her son is the kind of child that is easily swayed, not really motivated that could be targetted to be one of the drugs abuser, or maybe they (mom and son) came from a bad neighbourhood where ppl dont value learning that much and he's mingling with the bad vibes all his life.
    Bottomline is It's not fair to judge a woman who is just really, really worried ab her 18yo son who just got into college to be something in life, aint gonna let anything fuck that up.
    The voice is not hostile, it's caring, strict, but caring.
    This's love for the son, not hate for yall smokers.

    The true meaning of this interlude is more meaningful about just be yourself
    Like when you see people do weed and smoke something,the influential that they spreading make your brain thinking "oh thats cool,i want to be cool like them,i should do it"
    Like everybody want themselves to be "cool" in other people's eyes but in our parents's eyes if we do drugs,smoke weed,those thing only ruin our lives or worse
    Parents only want the best for their children
    The audio here giving a meaning that,just proud of be yourself, don't see people do this do that and thinking that its cool if we act like them or do things like them
    Like if you don't be yourself,you're just a walking body literally
    Each person have a different things you know,no one know us better than ourself
    Thats why the mom in the audio cheer her son / daughter up about being yourself
    (I'm sorry if i have grammar issue)

    I think this voicemail perfectly sums up any strong-willed and truly loving mother’s relationship with her child.
    First it’s the words of affirmation, reassurance and care. The words that come from her mouth that fill you up with this amazing sense of fulfilment and joy. There’s almost nothing like it. She makes you feel like you are worth it, makes you feel like all the pain has disappeared, makes you feel like YOU are everything that you have ever needed and will ever need.
    Then slowly comes the lecturing. Where there once were heartwarming sentences and fulfilling sentiments, there are now critical comments. Every interaction between the two of you becomes what seems to be a constant evaluation of every decision you make. Being forbidden to partake in certain activities and pastimes before you’ve even given them a chance. The feeling that anything you do that doesn’t align with her beliefs will be judged.
    Yeah, growing up with this mother can be tough. Because she’s tough. But the reality is that once upon a time she was just like you and although her judgements can be harsh and sometimes misguided, her love for you never falters.
    She’ll do anything to ensure that you are safe, even if that means being the overbearing mother that her child complains about to their friends when they ask him/her why they couldn’t go to that party.
    *Whether you want to believe it or not, she truly loves you more than anything in this world and all she wants is the best for you because she knows that you deserve it. And deep down you know it too.*

    Late night though so please excuse the typos. To me, people have different perspectives to this track. It's either be yourself, you don't have to do drugs, for example weed. you don't need to take drugs to fit in and you can be yourself to fit in with other people rather than acting like someone you aren't. On the other hand, be yourself, do drugs like weed as after all you are being you and not someone else as it's the choices you make that makes you yourself. To me, im both, im not sure why, I guess im in some sort of limbo when It' comes to making choices. idk just a late night thought. :)
