Diddy has some words of advice to those who may be lacking the motivation to hustle this summer. In a video posted to Instagram, the rapper eats a mango poolside and delivers an empowered speech to his followers.

“I ain’t special,” Diddy says. “I just want it. I want it bad, you feel me?” He goes on to say that he “won’t allow [himself] to not have mango” by virtue of slacking off.

But what really got followers’ attention was an anecdote from the rapper’s less affluent times. “One day when I was growing up, I woke up and there was 15 roaches on my face,” Diddy wrote in the video’s caption. “At that moment I said hell no, I refuse to live like this. Work hard, believe in your crazy dreams…”

Needless to say, the video, which has garnered 1 million views since being posted this morning, has spawned some hilarious memes on Twitter.
