Big K.R.I.T. - Big K.R.I.T. Lyrics






Yeah, my creator gave me the gift to create
And this mind of mine apply to our escape
In an atmosphere that wouldn't hold our weight
If I leave from here, I'll call when I'm safe
Knocking on the door, hoping someone answers
Yeah, I call that faith
This mouth of mine has turned down water for wine
I still recall that taste of bittersweet
Like when I realize you'll never be as perfect as the one that invented me
And the world full of temptations can make you feel so incomplete
Grow up to better than me, go farther than I can go
See farther than I can see
When my days draw to a close, breathe longer than I can breathe
And I'm fine with that
In the event that I decide to move forward what you've done
They can rewind it back
And I'm a proud parent now as I was a proud parent then
I saw you grow up to become the kind of king that I knew you'd always been
Indeed, there's a finish line for me, but for you, there's no end
So, perhaps, all that work that's been done was a win
And although my intentions were for good, it still brung us to a sin
But I'll pay for your mistakes as long as this world continues to spin
As this vessel of mine breaks down, I know you have never been
I'm sure as Multi is your home, hard times will come again
I set aside a book of rhymes that'll pave the way for now and then
I know "4eva is a Mighty Long Time", so where should we begin?

On the Southside cuz' I'm a country bumpkin
Bumping out the system, fuck if they don't listen
We done came a long way from niggas
Throwing CD's out the window like I made a frisbee
Better than veteran rapper's favorite rappers
Conscious or trappers and I'm Mississippi
Dirty Southern mothafucka kicking
Like a red bucket with white top chitlins
Shitting on niggas, my rhyme flow hands
Behind back eyes blind fold
Mind, body, and soul connected to the Most High
Even when times got low
Uh, look how they hate me, but copy me
Possibly I was the one with components and properties
To be the greatest of all time, but you won geography lottery
So I keep kicking, flipping tables, chosen and favored
Fuck being major when giant is greater
Fortune and fame but you fuck for the label
Truth is what made me
Settle down, settle down, I was angry but I'm better now
Niggas talking raising bars, mine amongst the stars
Give it time to level out
If you worried about the flow, I'll make a beat
Write you a hook that you repeat
Even go as far to drop a mixtape that you re-do
Never credit me, separately sold
Slick as the Giuseppe on slippery floors
Mop by the buckets that I used to hold
While dreaming of plaques and selling out shows
Multi-alumni forever the fours
...

    No Rolynne Anderson

  84. Z.... ....

    ''Possibly I was the one with components and properties
    To be the greatest of all time, but you won geography lottery''

    Z.... ....

    Zanobeats that shit is so true tho. If only big krit was from somewhere besides mississippi...

    Z.... ....

    BOS Man J Naw, fuck that. Fuck the fame. He gon' represent Mississippi till the fucking end.

    Z.... ....

    Adam Samaniego i know as he should. Its just sad cause people in mississippi hardly show any support its crazy.

    Z.... ....

    BOS Man J I know what you mean. In a sense, it kind of feels like mississippi folks don't deserve him. I used to live in Ol' miss when I was a kid. Loved that place. At the end of the day all his artwork and craft speaks for itself, & he's gon' rather represent Mississippi, the South, & himself rather than do it just for fame. Dude has my respect.

  85. L.... D....

    The Fucccckkkkiiinnnngggg Bestttttttt Thank You Big Brother

  86. C.... D....

    I'M SO IN LOVE WITH THIS ALBUM

  87. D.... L....

    HE SAMPLED "JUSTIN SCOTT" FROM THE SECOND DISC AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS SONG, BIG K.R.I.T. A LEGEND

  88. E.... S....

    My G done resurrected the southern soul with this album, I know OutKast, Goodie Mob, UGK, David Banner is smiling knowing their efforts spawned a artist that grabbed the baton and won the gold medal!

    E.... S....

    Yessir you hit it right on the nail trill spill

    E.... S....

    That was deep bro

    E.... S....

    Right? K.R.I.T. is one of those rare artists (Joey Bada$$ is another prime example) that can look both backwards (wearing his influences on his sleeves) and forwards (blazing trails with innovative music and concepts) at the same time.

    E.... S....

    Well said. Agreed

  89. Y.... 1....

    Keep producing this good soul food brother. We're royalty my brother. Stay connected to the most high, there ain't enough brothers doing what you doing. King. Remembered. In. Time.

    The messages are mixed my brother but they're messages none the less. Keep the devil off K.R.I.T.

    -Jeremiah Brown

  90. C.... ....

    This man is a prophet.

  91. R.... ....

    God dammit KRIT is the realest dude out there

  92. C.... S....

    And we back!!

  93. S.... ....

    The whole album is crazy thanks krit! You coming to Sacramento any time soon? Would love to see a show for this

    S.... ....

    INSS17E Productions check his Heavy Is The Crown tour, April 22nd should be Sacramento
