Skepta - Big lyrics
[Skepta - Verse 1] They say "Skepta, you must get loads of girls" The music's picked up now I tell em like J2k, nah, it's all switched up now She thinks that if she talks to me they'll call Her a groupie behind her back now So she stands far but close enough for her pictures To have me in the background I'm kinda used to it now They say its all part and parcel And if it's this much for me Imagine what it's like for Curtis and Marshall I wanna go hard But my body keeps telling me to take it easy So I sit here watching a DVD logo bounce around the TV My life ended ages ago, now it's all a dream Sitting here, thinking how this whole thing all started From What D'Ya Mean, What D'Ya Mean Now that I'm getting that paper I heard a couple man want me dead So I went out bought a Gucci hat and put money on my own head I forever hear people talking like I don't know about street Fake gangsters must think I spent my music money on chocolates and sweets You're looking for beef in London? Nah it's not hard to find it But I'm not scared of a gun, it's all about the man behind it [Hook] You wanna make it big You think you like what you see You wanna make it big You saw me go from the bottom to the top Now you wanna be me You wanna make it big This famous life can make some people wish they were 6 feet under But not me You see when I made it big I just wish that I knew what I know now when I was younger Truss [Skepta - Verse 2] Sometimes I think that I think too much I start thinking about thinking Then I start to get paranoid I think my windows need tinting They say why work all this time To get famous Joseph Just to have to wear sungla**es Cause you don't wanna get noticed Once in a while I take em off And I'm like "arrr, that's too bright" Must be because I sleep all day then I wake up at night Then I phone my girl, see if she wants to link She said she got work in the morning So what do I do, I go out for a drink I spend all my time in clubs It's starting to feel like home I don't wanna sit in the VIP but sometimes I just wanna be left alone I hate when I'm in a bad mood and I see all my supporters vybzin And I apologies to anyone I've taking a pic with when I weren't smiling They say "don't you remember me I met you at Party In The Park" Babe, I can't even remember where I parked my car in the car park Now she hates me and every time she hears my song she's changing the station I swear the human brain weren't designed to deal with all this information [Hook] You still wanna make it big You think you like what you see You wanna make it big You saw me go from the bottom to the top Now you wanna be me You wanna make it big This famous life can make some people wish they were 6 feet under But not me You see when I made it big I just wish that I knew what I know now when I was younger Truss [Bridge] They say tomorrow isn't promised to us so You have to enjoy today Cause the game is like a box of roses Cause when they're done with the chocolate The wrapper gets thrown away I said the wrapper gets thrown away [Chipmunk] When you're shooting for your targets And it's making you a target You die before you live; I wish they warned me when I started We go in full hearted, R.I.P the half wits Cause now we're 6 feet under the top spot f** a casket ba*tards, don't we make the lifestyle look appealing Independent names and chains Skepta are we dreaming? Nobody could season, this tracks couldn't reach him Cause now I'm on the other side of that gla** ceiling Mmm, the underdogs are off the leash Eh Joseph, pa** the muzzles and the leads The games full of demons, lets get this arm house on Everyone wants handouts but I ain't Stretch Armstrong We've come so far as MC's Round of applause or bust it off just make it clap please I'm so past just trying to be the favourite You're nobody until you got some haters But you still wanna make it BIG! [Hook - x2]
