Big Time

Yeah

Yeah

Uh, yeah

Gimme that mic, fool, lemme get a few things off the chest

I remember them, student days put me to test, yes

Actually, you could say that I put myself through it

How could I be helpful to mum if I ain't sail through a

Tertiary institute, older brother, sister who

Did it, so you ain't shit if you ain't in the livin' room

With "bachelor" on the wall, this plaque is awarded for

What? I don't know shit, back chillin' on the wall

Outside of the guidance counselor's office

And he sittin', askin' if I know what I'm really wantin' out of life

See, I don't know what I want to do or pursue

I just want to make moves with the crew to hit

The big time (Big time, all they could see is signs)

Soon, we'll hit the big time (Big time, big time)

When we hit the big time (Big time, all they could see is signs)

Soon, we'll hit the big time (Big time, big time)

So you gotta reach for that money

Keep receipts for that money

They gon' leech all that money

When you least need it, but we hit

Year OO, now I'm outside in the big bad world

Try'na make some dollars, maybe I could bag a bad girl

What, what you wanna do? still don't really know

So just grabbed the university brochure and I chose

Somethin' at a whim, IT?

Yeah, I like computer games

But I heard the pay got lower since Y2K? fuck it

I suck at economics and accounting, so Bcom is out

B bursary cut down all the choices

Ain't no medicine or engineering for me

Now the only small problem is the fees

Cost three and a half to five over four years

Yeah, it's steep but you shoulda tried to save before you're here

You gonna need money for textbooks on top of that here

Here's a discount card for Shad's cheapen up your beer

Don't fear, if you ain't got no money, little Dave

Here's a student loan form, you can sign your life away to hit
