Bigger Than Me
Tasha Baxter Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's not the things inside my head that keep me goin'
Don't need someone to throw me money, they should show it
Keep chasin' shadows, they're always hauntin' me
But I believe in somethin' bigger, bigger than me

Bigger than me, oh, bigger than me
Bigger than me
The grass is greener when you're jaded and chasin' dreams
They promise miracles, but nothin' is what it seems
You get your video on YouTube and MTV
1 million hits? So last year. 4 million is what you need
I'm climbin' ladders and fallin' onto snakes
I'm dodging haters, don't know how much more I can take
Keep getting closer, the prize further away
Some day I'll get there, someone please save a space

Please save a space

But I keep chasin' dreams
I'll leave 'em at my feet
My heart on my sleeve
I'll wait for you to call me
But I keep chasin' dreams
I'll leave 'em at my feet
My heart on my sleeve
I'll wait for you to call me

This is bigger than you, this is bigger than me
Our dreams will come true, we just have to believe
This is bigger than you, this is bigger than me
A sense of urgency, please listen to me
Bigger than you, this is bigger than me
Our dreams will come true, we just have to believe
This is bigger than you, this is bigger than me
A sense of urgency, please listen to me! (Listen to me)

You keep denyin', but fueled by your desires
You wanna try it and see with your own eyes, with your own eyes
They try to tell you, but all you hear is lies
They think they know you, but I'm always in disguise, always in disguise

But I keep chasin' dreams
I'll leave 'em at my feet
My heart on my sleeve
I'll wait for you to call me
But I keep chasin' dreams
I'll leave 'em at my feet
My heart on my sleeve
I'll wait for you to call me

This is bigger than you, this is bigger than me
Our dreams will come true, we just have to believe
This is bigger than you, this is bigger than me
A sense of urgency, please listen to me
Bigger than you, this is bigger than me
Our dreams will come true, we just have to believe




This is bigger than you, this is bigger than me
A sense of urgency, please listen to me! (Listen to me)

Overall Meaning

In Tasha Baxter's song "Bigger Than Me," she speaks to the experience of chasing dreams that seem ever out of reach. The first verse speaks to the fact that she doesn't need material possessions or money to keep going chasing after her goals. The line "keep chasin' shadows, they're always hauntin' me" suggests that she is continually pursuing something elusive, something that cannot be caught. Despite this frustration, there is a sense of conviction behind her actions as she believes in something greater than herself.


The second verse speaks to the disillusionment that can come with chasing fame and success, as even the experience of going viral with one million views is not enough, as you need four million to be truly noteworthy. She continues to express the challenges of this journey, including climbing ladders and falling on snakes, dodging haters, and feeling like the prize is always out of reach.


The chorus reflects the idea that what she is chasing is more significant than herself, and the urgency behind this pursuit suggests that it is something that is necessary, almost beyond her control. The importance of believing in one's dreams is emphasized in the repeated line "our dreams will come true, we just have to believe."


Overall, the song captures the experience of chasing something that is just out of reach, the challenges that come with it, and the importance of believing in oneself and the bigger picture.

Tasha Baxter ft. Au5 – Bigger Than Me Lyrics (Transcribed by Shardonite)

It’s not the things inside my head that keep me going,
Don’t need someone to throw me money, they should show it;
Keep chasing shadows, they always haunting me,
But I believe in something bigger, bigger than me,
Bigger than me,
Oh, bigger than me,
Bigger than me.

The grass is greener when you’re jaded and chasing dreams,
They promise miracles, but nothing is what it seems,
You get your video on YouTube and MTV,
One million hits, so last year,
Four million is what you need.

I’m climbing ladders and falling onto snakes,
I’m dodging haters, don’t know how much more I can take.
Keep getting closer, the price for the [oasis?]
Someday I’ll get there, someone please save a space.
Please save a space.

But I keep chasing dreams,
I leave them at my feet,
My heart on my sleeve,
I wait for you to call me.

But I keep chasing dreams,
I leave them at my feet,
My heart on my sleeve,
I wait for you to call me.

This is bigger than you.
This is bigger than me.
Our dreams will come true,
We just have to believe.

This is bigger than you.
This is bigger than me.
A sense of urgency.
Please listen to me.

Bigger than you.
This is bigger than me.
Our dreams will come true,
We just have to believe.

This is bigger than you.
This is bigger than me.
A sense of urgency.
Please listen to me.

You keep denying but fuelled by your desire,
You want to try it and see with your own eyes,
With your own eyes.
They try to tell you but all you hear is lies,
They think they know you but I’m always in disguise,
Always in disguise.

But I keep chasing dreams,
I leave them at my feet,
My heart on my sleeve,
I wait for you to call me.

But I keep chasing dreams,
I leave them at my feet,
My heart on my sleeve,
I wait for you to call me.

This is bigger than you.
This is bigger than me.
Our dreams will come true,
We just have to believe.

This is bigger than you.
This is bigger than me.
A sense of urgency.
Please listen to me.

Bigger than you.
This is bigger than me.
Our dreams will come true,
We just have to believe.

This is bigger than you.
This is bigger than me.
A sense of urgency.
Please listen to me.

This track just gets better and better the more I listen to it. Snowblind is still superior but my god this is brilliant.

@Trickey2413

Couldnt agree more with that statement.

@_xbuki107

Snowblind is sooo good

@Trickey2413

Ethan Bukowski I love you guys. We should start a snowblind cult where we lure chritians into believing we are satanists.
But seriously snowblind is probably my alltime favourite song (along with a few others)

@Domi00108

Snowblind Best Song Ever
