Big Time

you want the big time
welcome to the big time
chorus:
big time
everybody wanna live the big time
everybody wanna see the big time
everybody wanna hit the big time
i think that
you think i’m
some kind of user
that i don’t
really love you
like i’m only here
for the big time
in the center of my heart i don’t be wanna apart
my inner-mind line going back to the start
somewhere along the thread it got cut
but i could tie it back together and sew it up
‘cause i don’t really wanna go, toe-to-toe to mo’
gone too long, when you comin’ home
‘cause when i looked into your eyes they were so cold
i can’t breath you got my soul in choke hold
chorus
what good is
having everything
when it’s nothing
without you
proped all alone
atop an (empty) lonely throne
is the farthest thing
from the big time
we swore to each other we would keep this real
so when i tell you that i love you it’s how i feel
but you stand mute like you don’t you remember
tryna play cute ulterior agenda
yeah, you wanna drop the blame on me
shame on me? now i see and
even though i dread what comes next
i hope you’ll my amicable ex
chorus
platinum imbedded diamond rings and fancy things
i’m conflicted off what that brings like
can it really bring me joy in the end?
money ain’t my confidant, money ain’t my friend
i been broke and money couldn’t give a shhh
hand in my pocket pullin’ on my lint
while you was my rock through skies of greys
to the big time golden over flowin’ sun-rays
now i look around i got so many friends
but i should see through ‘em ‘cause they all pretend
but my heart twisted off the spotlight
left me without you in the big time
chorus
