Big Eye
Big Talk Lyrics

Well, i remember when no one listened
I recall a time when I was ignored and dismissed by others.

No one would wanna listen to me
People were not interested in hearing my perspective or ideas.

You gotta keep that gig ear open
It's essential to be receptive to new opportunities and possibilities.

'cause all the world will listen for free
The world is eager to hear fresh, authentic voices that can offer something valuable and unique.

Keep all the pressures hiden
Do not let external influences or expectations dictate your actions or behaviors.

Keep all your secret safe
Protect your thoughts, dreams, and aspirations from those who might try to undermine or discourage you.

You better lock'em all up in the kitchen
Store your secrets and desires in a safe place where they won't be exposed or judged by others.

I don't want 'em hanging off of me
I don't want my secrets or desires to burden or weigh me down.

A kid on the road in a place of a man
I am young and inexperienced, navigating a world where I am expected to be mature and independent.

And all he wants he don't see
Despite my youth, I have dreams and ambitions that are not yet within my reach.

You gotta keep that big eye open
Stay vigilant and attentive to the opportunities and challenges that come your way.

Keep it open up to and looking at me
Be receptive to my perspective and ideas, and consider them with an open mind.

Treat it all as though you live in the world
Approach life with a broad perspective, considering the experiences and viewpoints of others as well as your own.

And you roll through open doors
Take advantage of opportunities as they come, not letting fear or doubt hold you back.

Keep on the floor and know to listen low
Stay humble and grounded, listen and learn from those around you who have more experience.

Get home and get the love some more
Surround yourself with love and support, from friends, family, or other positive sources.

When it said you're gonna listen
When someone promises to listen to you and your ideas.

But you won't wanna listen to me
Despite their promise, they may not actually be receptive to your perspective or ideas.

Hey kid, i want you to know that i love you
I care for you and have your best interests at heart.

Your momma come looking for me
Your mother may come looking for me because she cares for you and wants to make sure you are safe and well.

In case she's in that kitchen
If she happens to discover my secrets or desires that I've hidden away.

I don't want her come running to me
I don't want to be burdened or held responsible for any negative consequences that might arise from her discovery.

Kid, i don't want you to think i'm a big bad wolf
I don't want you to see me as a threat or someone who might harm you or your interests.

There's just somethings i can't be
I have my own limitations and challenges, and cannot do everything or be everything to everyone.

You've seen me drink the bottle of wisdom
You've witnessed me gaining knowledge and insights through experience and learning.

I'll let you hold the bottle for free
I'm willing to share my wisdom and experience with you, to help you learn and grow as well.

Keep one eye open on the prize today
Stay focused and determined to achieve your goals, even in the face of adversity or distraction.

And two will only get you free
Having multiple perspectives or opinions can enrich your understanding and help you see things in a new light.

Know that i won't listen to me
I recognize that I can sometimes be stubborn or resistant to feedback or advice.

I know you're coming looking for me
I know that you rely on me for guidance or support.

Oooooh, there goes a man
A recognition of someone who is mature and capable, who inspires respect or admiration.
