Go Big Or Go Home

All the pretty girls use to look right through us
And our classmates barely knew us
And I got more fans in Germany
Than my hometown where I grew up
That's crazy to me, crazy to see
Crazy to hear that you still don't believe
Crazy the hate that I seem to receive
Crazy I'm not what you want me to be now
I pray I never lose my soul
Pray I never get to cold, pray if I fall, I never fold
And if I did, well I was told, I fit myself into a box
And let you label me then stick me in my spot
But we ain't about that, let's go

They should know, we got the drive and they don't
Want us to stop, but we won't, we did this all on our own
When you wanna go home, just take the highs from the lows
I chose to travel this road, they know how far we can go
But they told us we won't find a way, no time away
You spend your time and get high all day
We spend our time on the grind all day
And we do it ourselves and our way so
We go big or go home
They told us we won't make it, we look back and laugh and say hello

Remembering back, sitting in class
Telling the teacher my dreams and he laughed
Look at my wall and they're calling me wack
Well, I'm tired of finishing last
I have to prove what I can do and that you weren't right
I stay up every night and as I write I picture new heights
Look, I got a degree, what does that mean?
Still would rather sit and write at 16
Want me to fall and break my self esteem
But I'm battling odds and I follow my dreams
What is reality? Hoping your proud of me
Do what I love over chasing a salary
Work everyday and I never get paid
But I'm paid by the praise when I step on a stage

They should know, we got the drive and they don't
Want us to stop, but we won't, we did this all on our own
When you wanna go home, just take the highs from the lows
I chose to travel this road, they know how far we can go
But they told us we won't find a way, no time away
You spend your time and get high all day
We spend our time on the grind all day
And we do it ourselves and our way so
We go big or go home
They told us we won't make it, we look back and laugh and say hello

Yeah, never been no cool kid
I re-define what cool is
On top of that world now
Y'all go home and I go big
Uh, they never seen no one like me in town
Uh, they never seen no one like me around (yeah)
It's obvious that we're on different routes
I put this tattoo on my face, so y'all can shut your mouth
These people caught up in their simple minded way you living
Give me the odds, I'll prove you that I'm one in a million, uh
If you ain't hold me down, then you holding me down
Getting sick of people saying that they looking out (shut up)
Like if I was you, why ever fall back
That's the reason that you're always on the wrong track

They should know, we got the drive and they don't
Want us to stop, but we won't, we did this all on our own
When you wanna go home, just take the highs from the lows
I chose to travel this road, they know how far we can go
But they told us we won't find a way, no time away
You spend your time and get high all day
We spend our time on the grind all day
And we do it ourselves and our way so
We go big or go home
They told us we won't make it, we look back and laugh and say hello

They said I'd be nothing at all, want me to fall
Feel like I've been through it all
Feel like I'm twenty feet tall when I rap on a track
And leave them in aw, won't believe what they saw
Who knew this mic would change a life
I put my emphasis on happiness, I feel I'm living right
Now things are changing overnight, man, that's crazy
I put my heart and soul into this music everyday, see
If I start it, then I finish, never quit, I'm sticking with it
Now my dream is guiding me, so best believe, I'm followin' it, go!
