Lyrics

[Verse 1]

All the things you said to me

The manifest and destiny

Well, all of this could go away right now

[Verse 2]

And everyone was in the band

And I was on another planet

And you were all alone

[Verse 3]

And you want to be a big shot

You wanna be the big man

You wanna hold a big gun

You gotta have a quick hand

[Verse 4]

You wanna be the big shot now

The chosen one your mother loved the most

After all

[Verse 5]

Early morning still in bed

You hate yourself for what you said

But you could never admit you were wrong

[Verse 6]

And every song was out of key

And I was in the in between

And you were still all alone

[Verse 7]

And you want to be a big shot

You wanna be the big man

You wanna place a big bet

You better have a big hand

[Verse 8]

You wanna be the big shot

You wanna be the only son we love

After all

[Verse 9]

And you want to be a big shot

You wanna be the big man

You wanna hold a big gun (Big gun)

You better have a quick hand (Quick hand)

[Verse 10]

You wanna be the big shot (Big shot)

You wanna be the big man (Big man)

You wanna place a big bet (Big bet)

You better have a sick hand (Sick hand)

[Verse 11]

You want to be the big shot now

Big shot now

After all
