Bigger Than Me

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Do or die

Look, all I wanna do is make the city proud, yeah

Wishing all the OGs could see me now, now yeah

And when you feel something you can't see

But you know it's meant to be

You gonna realize that this is bigger than me yeah

Bigger than me, bigger than me

When the whole family depend on you to eat man

That night you can't sleep

You gon' realize that this is bigger than me

Get it, get it, get it

I pray that you get it even if I can't get it with cha

I pray to God you never let the little

Things in life distract you from the bigger picture

Everybody in the city to me like a distant cousin, brother, little sister

I see myself in the young ones

When I look in their eyes it feel like a mirror

Corleone all on my own (Don)

Cartier all on my arm

All I hear is sirens and car alarms

Niggas going to war with no armor on

First time I seen a dead body I was 14

And I felt the pressure

Like if I don't get it, I might end up next to him

I'ma take the dice and I'ma roll a 7

Seven, seven, seven, 7-11 it's 911 getting called around

The hood America's lost and found

Where niggas get lost and never found

All I ever wanted was to turn these Gs into Ms and a Mercedes key

Got it and I still felt incomplete

That's when I realized this shit was bigger than me

Bigger than me

When the whole town on their feet

And they all just waiting on you to speak

That's when you realize that this is bigger than me

All I wanna do is make the city proud, yeah

Wishing all the OGs could see me now, now yeah

Ohhh ya ya yeah

Ohhh ya ya yeah

You gon' realize that this was bigger than me

Used to want that foreign

Got that foreign, now it's boring

Started touring

Swear to God that's when I realized this shit was bigger than me

Flash on niggas with the Rollie

Got that Rollie with the shine

But lost my time

That's when I realized this shit was bigger than me

I seen people in the same place 10 years later

Man that shit pathetic

God talking to me telepathic like it only happen if you let it

I can't spend my whole life looking at the same ceiling fan

When I feel like I ain't got no ceilings man

If I ain't special why I feel it then?

I gotta get on the road

I gotta be the one chose

I gotta come back and tell the greatest story they never told

This must be the feeling that you get when you know you close

And you know it's a way in even when the doors are closed

And realize this shit is bigger than me yeah

Bigger than me

When the whole town on their feet

And they all just waiting on you to speak

That's when you realize that this is bigger than me

All I wanna do is make the city proud, yeah

Wishing all the OGs could see me now, now yeah

Oh ya ya yeah

Oh ya ya yeah

Oh ya ya yeah

Oh ya ya ya ya ya ya ya yeah

Oh ya ya ya ya ya ya ya yeah

Oh ya ya ya ya ya ya ya yeah

Well no matter what, I'm proud of you

Even when you do stupid things that I have warned you about

You must get that from your daddy

I'm just kidding, you know I love you. You listening?

Yeah yeah, I'm listening. I love you too

In a way I feel like I'm living through you

Sometimes it feels like I got another chance at everything

Man that's deep to feel like that

I kinda feel the same way though sometimes

Yeah

With all the work that's goin' on I feel like

This is like my second time doin' it so I know that sound crazy but

You know I just I don't know why I always imagine myself as

Like someone who failed at everything he ever did at life

You know and I got to the end of life and just regretted it all and somehow

This is my chance to go back and get it all right

And when I wake up, with that in mind you know

It completely changes my hunger, how I approach the whole day

I mean you decide to live your life like that then pshh man

I guarantee we'll live life to our best potential

It's that simple. It's all about living in the moment. Period
