Don't Cry Big Girls |
This is Lyte, and I’m just here to say |
That I choose to express my feelings this way |
Always alone, either with a microphone |
Or just plainly emphasize the tone |
Of my voice, cause yo, I know I’m your choice |
So when I am speaking, show your gratitude |
While I am teaching, I have no attitude |
I’m just here to get the job totally done |
85% work, 15% fun |
Sometimes I admit, I get so excited |
Rhyme for rhyme, I just can’t fight it |
Can’t stop the flow, it’s just too persistant |
(Big girls don’t cry) (2x) |
Can’t stop the flow, it’s just too persistant |
The level is extremely low on my resistance |
By you or any other I’ll never be beaten at a |
Rap meeting, in other words a battle |
Cause y’all, I’m like a farmer, and y’all’s the cattle |
Be a big girl about it, don’t you start cryin |
That’ll mean I made you weep without even tryin |
Lyte takes it like a big girl, I’m no jive girl |
Comin direct, tellin you that I’m a live girl |
'I'm positive', you’ve heard this expression before |
So next time you see Lyte shine through the door |
Don’t talk behind my back, confront me like a big girl |
(Big girls don’t cry) (2x) |
Don’t talk behind my back, confront me like a big girl |
So I can take you to all slimmies of the world |
Big girls, we don’t fight over men |
Although there’s one worth fighting for every now and then |
But then I think again, it’s not worth my while |
And it’s also not a big girl style |
And I know you’re thinkin: 'Wait, Lyte is slim and short?' |
While being brought up I was also taught |
Take it like it comes and proceed with the flow |
Lyte is the biggest of the big girls, and now you know |
(Big girls don’t cry) (2x) |
This is dedicated to Milk Dee from the Audio 2 |
To Gizmo from the Audio 2 |
The whole Alliance crew |
You know what I’m sayin? |
And to all the big girls |
Also the small girls |
You got time to grow up to be big girls |
(Big girls don’t cry) |
