Big Lyrics - Chipmunk

They say "Skepta, you must get loads of girls" 

the music's picked up now 

tell em like J2k, nahh, 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 it's all part and parcel 

and if it's this much for me 

imagine whats 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 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 gangstas must think I spent my music money on chocolate 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 

[Chorus] 

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 make people wanna wish they were 6 feet under 

but not me 

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 wear sunglasses 

cause you don't wanna get noticed 

once in a while I take em off 

and I'm like "arrr, thats too bright" 

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 vibes'n 

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 where I parked my car in the car park 

now she hates me and everytime she hears my song she's changing the station 

I swear the human brain weren't designed to deal with all this information 

[Chorus] 

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] 

Listen 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 chocalate 

the wrapper gets thrown away 

I said the wrapper gets thrown away 

[Chipmunk] 

When you're shooting for your targets 

and its making you a target 

you die before you live, I wish you warned me when I started 

we're going full hearted, R.I.P the half wits 

cause now we're 6 feet under the top spot f-ck a casket 

bastards, don't we make the lifestyle look appealing 

independant names and chains 

Skepta are we dreaming? 

nobody could season, this track couldn't reach him 

cause now I'm on the otherside of that glass ceiling 

the underdogs are off the leash 

eh Joseph, pass the muzzles and the leads 

the games full of demons, lets get this armhouse on 

everyone wants handouts but I aint stretch armstrong 

we've come so far as emcee'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! 

[Chorus - x2]
