Hmm
The young fellow Carvello
Dyllie, I got the hope (Hope)
Walk on the water and float (Float)
Yeah, I left the fear in the boat
Yeah, uh, look at my coat, uh
I got the colors like Joseph
I'm never holdin' the four fifth
My only weapon is six six
I'm tryna grow like a Pikmin, yeah
I gotta switch now, uh
Look at my halo uh
They call me Pit now, uh
My homies get wild
Whole city know my crew name
Indie Tribe the new Wu-Tang
And I'm Lupe and he's Liu Kang
Spider verse when I write a verse
Cinematic when I pen and pad it
Holy war, I don't even panic
Holy water, I don't need a Patek, yeah
And I'm not stressing, uh, you cannot block my blessing
Oh, yeah
Said they want beef, uh, get out my delicatessen, wait
Once and for all, now that I'm free
I want the ball, give it to me
Threw me the bomb, Vietnamese
Tell 'em it's time for it, yeah (Time for it)

They know we came up from zero
Call me the neighborhood hero

Once and for all, now that I'm free
I want the ball, give it to me
Threw me the bomb, Vietnamese
Tell 'em it's time for it, yeah (Time for it)

The song "Bigger Than Me" by 1K Phew feat. nobigdyl. is an energetic rap song that highlights the artists' positive and confident attitude towards life. In the first verse, 1K Phew talks about leaving behind fear and embracing hope as he walks on water and wears a vibrant coat reminiscent of the colors Joseph wore in the Bible. He also references his crew, Indie Tribe, who he compares to the legendary Wu-Tang Clan, and their pursuit of growth and success. 1K Phew sees his life and career as a mission that's "bigger than him" and calls on his fans and listeners to join him on this journey.
Nobigdyl.'s verse shifts the focus to his personal growth and success, mentioning his peers' judging and doubting him as he rose to fame. He urges listeners to stop criticizing others and authoring success stories of their own. The chorus, "doing it big, it's bigger than me," reinforces the idea that their journey is much greater than themselves, and they need to keep pushing forward to overcome obstacles and achieve their goals. The song is a powerful message of hope, confidence, and determination for anyone struggling to achieve their dreams.
