Big Dog
Knight Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All gas no brakes
You all cap it's hard for me trust anything that you say
I customized myself to be this way I'm self made
I know niggas feel a type of way about me but I ain't fazed
I'm just happy they feel something
Ever since I done hit the ground I been go and I'm still running
Eat whatever you kill yea I done ate a lot but I'm still hunting
Ima need a bigger plate
All my blessings coming right on time and not a minute late
Every piece is getting scraped, hit the beat and then I skate
Guaranteed to bring it home I'm sliding on the base
When you get it popping they gon' try to imitate
I stay grounded but I'm way too fly to limitate
My wingspan is infinite
They look up and it's him again, I got 'em shook they trembling
Not innocent I'm menacing, I son 'em all I invented 'em
I stunt on y'all I'm tricking 'em, how you want the ball but can't dribble it?

Don't get it confused
I done found my spark and didn't have to blow a fuse
I like to play it cool that's just always how I move
Big dog status coming through make some room
Everywhere I go I shut it down, shut it down
Niggas got to see me coming now, coming now
Bouta have my city jumping now, jumping now
I'm really him when I come around, come around I'm really him

Turning the heat up, niggas wishing they could be us
They wanna kick it like FIFA, been with more teams than Trevor Ariza
I'm just waiting on somebody to give me a reason to wild out
Turn into a loose cannon niggas is praying I foul out
I'm ballin' out of control you can't contain it
If I'm down bad or up good either way I'm still maintaining
Can't tune into your new shit I heard it once and it's draining
Can't let her be the apple of my eye cuz that fruit is too low hangin'
That is a shame to see, you niggas lame to me
Listen I'm major league you lucky if you ever make the team
1st round 2nd round don't care where I'm drafted
I don't miss I'm like AI when it comes to target practice
If you want the smoke consider it sign sealed and delivered
I'm still a rookie don't get it twisted my mic skills ain't beginner
It's wheels up from here on out now come roll with the winner
Y'all photobombing just to be seen so I cropped you out of the picture

Don't get it confused
I done found my spark and didn't have to blow a fuse
I like to play it cool that's just always how I move
Big dog status coming through make some room
Everywhere I go I shut it down, shut it down
Niggas got to see me coming now, coming now




Bouta have my city jumpin' now, jumpin' now
I'm really him when I come around, come around I'm really him
