Featuring Sonny Bama
(Hook)
Everybody wants to be a part
Of something that is bigger bigger bigger
And all these little things
They were sayin
And all these little things
They pass by
And I don’t even understand why
So I ask myself
“What’s going on with the world today?”
It seems…
Everybody wants to be a part
Of something that is bigger bigger bigger
(Verse)
It seems like everybody’s trying to be somebody else
When everybody needs to focus on just being themselves
Kids watch rappers on Youtube and try to mimic
But they don’t realize that half of these guys are gimmicks
They only blow that loud purp, rock stars crowd surf
Bragging while the rest of the world just stands around hurt
I remember simple men, remember the times
When it was okay just be a regular guy
Now they wanna shine, diamonds and pearls, I hate it so much
I think about my little girl, I’m worried when she grows up
That she will think it ain’t cool to be average
And realize designer clothes are just a piece of fabric
Having some Jordans don’t make you important
Really, they just make the next man a fuckin fortune
I’m guilty of it too, I bought a pair this morning
Need to practice what I preach instead of just ignoring it

I’ve been in this room a while and I ain’t going nowhere now
Gotta finish what I started and I’ll be posted with a smile
But for now mean mugs are what I’m giving out
Run in a race for years now, no time for me to sit down
I’ve always wanted to be part of something bigger
And in ’01 I signed a contract and painted a picture
The album has got me now an instant cult classic
A different song on that masterpiece had so many people ratchet
So all I’m sayin is go follow your dreams
I had an amazing time following my looking back now I see
The bigger picture, it’s getting clearer every day
I’m lookin into my daughter’s face and it shows me the way
I hope I see them get to grow, that’s really all that I want
I’m stuck in this life on the road, wanna know do I see to my dog?
But that’s just part of the life I chose and I understand it all
Lookin straight and moving forward, nothing’s gonna make me fall, no
