Lyrics

[Intro]
I got a big ego, ha-ha-ha
I'm such a big ego, uh-uh-uh
I got a big ego, she love my big ego
So stroke my big, eh-eh-eh, ego
I like to joke around a little bit but here we go
[Verse 1]
Welcome to the wonderful world of gold-plated Earl 'cause everything I throw up, blow up
Talkin' to the girl, she said, know what? Grow up, you nasty
I don't understand why they trippin', if you ask me
Flow just the nicest, I emit the propane, I just spit, probably just raised the gas prices
Everybody in the club try and get as fresh as me
What you want, dawg? Trying to stay recession free
And spit refreshingly
When I rock the stadium, you probably get sweaty, you should bring a extra tee
Now I'm standing next to Jay, who standing next to B
Coulda been anywhere in the world, but you're here with me
That's good for my ego, me and my ego
[Verse 2]
And it go wherever we go, my ego is my imaginary friend
He was with me when I was only imagining
I had dreams of the league, one day I play Kobe
I walk up to Puff and he already know me
Could've let the dream killers kill my self-esteem
Or use the arrogance as a steam that powers my dreams and my ego
[Verse 3]
It's on, baby, let's get lost
You don't need to call into work 'cause you're the boss
For real, want you to show me how you feel
I consider myself lucky, that's a big deal
Why? Well, you got the key to my heart
But you ain't gon' need it, I'd rather you open up my body
And show me secrets you didn't know was inside, no need for me to lie
[Chorus]
It's too big, it's too wide, it's too strong, it won't fit
It's too much, it's too tough
He talk like this 'cause he can back it up
He got a big ego, such a huge ego
I love his big ego, it's too much
He walk like this 'cause he can back it up
[Verse 4]
Usually I'm humble, right now I don't choose
You can leave with me or you could have the blues
Some call it arrogant, I call it confident
You decide when you find out what I'm working with
Damn, I know I'm killing you with them legs, better yet, them thighs
Matter of fact, it's my smile or maybe my eyes
Boy, you a sight to see, kind of something like me
[Chorus]
It's too big, it's too wide, it's too strong, it won't fit
It's too much, it's too tough
I talk like this 'cause I can back it up
I got a big ego, such a huge ego
But he love my big ego, it's too much
I walk like this 'cause I can back it up
[Chorus]
It's too big, it's too wide, it's too strong, it won't fit
It's too much, it's too tough, he talk like this
He talk like this 'cause he can back it up
He got a big ego, such a huge ego
Such a huge ego
I love his big ego, it's too much
He walk like this 'cause he can back it up
[Outro]
Ego so big, you must admit
I got every reason to feel like I'm that ****
Ego so strong, if you ain't know
I don't need no beat, I can sing it with piano
