I say life is like a movie, and a movie is like something
Something like desire — it keeps burning in my soul
Big up yourself if no one big ups you
Big up yourself if no one big ups you
Big up yourself if no one big ups you
I say life is like a movie, and a movie is like something
Something like desire, it is burning in my soul
Big up yourself if no one big ups you
Wisdom they say is better than the gold
But then you got the gold, and then you turn it into wise
Big up yourself if no one big ups you
Big up yourself, big up yourself
Big up yourself if no one big ups you
