Lyrics
BIGGER THAN THAT
V.1
I step on the stage and approach the mic,
And everbody in the place looking at me like
He looks so amateur he probably can?t flow
Til? I flex my larynx and start to blow
Some of the illest rhetoric to gush from a slick
Looking brother and they be like holy sh.. it?s a trick
No ya prick,you can bet I?m as real as you get
Got an imposing rep and I ain?t even peek yet,
From a place no one knows so watch me strike a pose
Like Madonna or I can keep it gutta and throw blows,
Thinking big wasn?t part of my genome
So like a mad scientist I built the gene on my own
Chorus; now picture Bill Gates cheese,I think bigger than that!
The finest luxuries,I think bigger than that!
The prettiest honies,I thnk bigger than that!
Now how the hell you think I got to be where I?m at!
Now picture cars and yachts,I think bigger than that!
Big screens to watch,I think bigger than that!
Looking hot on the block,I think bigger than that!
Now how the hell you think I got to be where I?m at!
V.2
I?m a survivor,a renown master
At pulling sh.. back from the brink of disaster,
I?ll push a challenge to the point of lunacy,
And I?ve come to see that opportunity
Falls for all faces in all spaces and places,
Doesn?t come on a first come first serve basis,
So let me claim this ?fore someone else take this,
Can?t deal with pipe dreams fantasies and fakeness,
Peeked over the fence and what did I see,
A load of prosperity staring back at me
So I?m a get busy and kick this nine to five
And go swim in the waters where only sharks survive
Chorus
V.3
What?s that I hear,someone made me a dare
If it benefits me then I ain?t showing no fear,
I?m ruthless yeah my position is clear
I?m gonna mash a few toes here and there so beware
I?ve got substance an abundance of steam,
I can create and transform any crazy dream
From a non-entity to something that beams,
Just give me incentive,a motive,a theme,
I refuse to be confused by petty issues,
That?s alien to me,fully against my rules
I?m simply not the kind,that?s for diminutive minds
Fuss over nickels and dimes?that?s a federal crime
Chorus
