I coulda sworn I was falling in love, coulda sworn that she got me bad
It turns out that I was scared to tell her, so I put it on a little note pad
Ten years old on the school bus home, my first crush sitting across the aisle
Thinking "oh what I wouldn't give to hold her hand for just a little while"
But in reality she didn't know me, and real life's not a romance movie
Every time she glanced over at me, I swear it felt like I couldn't breathe
I'd written out everything that I felt, although it wasn't written very well
I never woulda thought what I had just done was gonna be the words to my first song
Damn
Thirteen now and I got it in my mind that I'm gonna be a superstar
My momma told me "keep your mind on your dreams even if the road is gonna be hard"
I started writing more than ever before, tryna get my foot in the door
Not a single ounce of doubt in my mind, that the whole world was gonna be mine
I stuck to my guns, strayed from the pack
Saw my future and I never looked back
But they say that I should
Go get a job and give up on all of my dreams
Finally grow up, move on from these stupid things
But I am closer now, than I will ever be
And there is no way that, you're ever stopping me
I've got my middle finger up in the air, yelling
"**** everyone, I don't care"
Hell yeah
I'm gonna be rich
I'm gonna be famous
I'm gonna be Big
La da da da da da da
I'm gonna be Big
La da da da da da da
Twenty-seven years old, 'bout to hit the road, starting off on my very first tour
Nothing but a van, microphone in my hand, tryna find what I've been looking for
I had a song on the radio, had a concert down the road
A stage with some fans reaching at me, I never knew I could feel so free, but I
Stuck to my guns, strayed from the pack
Saw my future and I never looked back
But they say that I should
Go get a job and give up on all of my dreams
Finally grow up, move on from these stupid things
But I am closer now, than I will ever be
And there is no way that, you're ever stopping me
I've got my middle finger up in the air, yelling
"**** everyone, I don't care"
Hell yeah
I'm gonna be rich
I'm gonna be famous
I'm gonna be Big
La da da da da da da
I'm gonna be Big
La da da da da da da
I'm gonna be Big
La da da da da da da
I'm gonna be Big
La da da da da da da
Was that good
