[Intro: G Simone & KRS-One]
Gather round, oh yeah
Think bigger, think bigger
This is about life (Life), real life
Real life, your life, my life, real life
[Verse 1: KRS-One]
Young and strugglin' out there buggin', let me sing a song for you
This song ain't for everybody, this is for the chosen few
Those that's born with purpose never worthless this is all for you
You hearin' me at this moment 'cause the spirit is calling you
Somethin' pressing inside revealing it's truth is calling you
But if you don't understand the acronym Simone brought to you
The mеdia will lead your mind to do things you don't want to do
Like dissin' your own heritagе and the lineage that belongs to you
This is what a colonists about, dissin' all of you
The past, the present, the future and what you gonna do
It's not just about now, it's about tomorrow too
You are the cultural foundation of those that will follow you
Just like you model the past, the future gonna model you
So what from this era are you tellin' the future it has to do?
When the future looks back, will they really respect or laugh at you?
These are the real questions that real life will be asking you
But if you distracted by the temptations that they flashin' you
You won't see the opportunities that steady passin' you
This is why despite despite their criticisms I bring the class to you
Because culture ain't about now, it's about who comes after you
[Chorus: G Simone]
Think bigger
Think bigger
Think love
[Verse 2: KRS-One]
Hear me on this second take, KRS is never fake
Go ahead get your dinner plate but let me now get somethin' straight
Ain't nobody hatin' on you youngins how you do your do
But you too young to see how these corporations are usin' you
Culturally abusing you, pickin' and choosin' you
Programmin' your mind through the music lines you cruisin' to
Think about the future you, the higher you, the super you
Or will the future you turn out to only be the stupid you?
Knowledge Reigns Supreme learn this theme it never goes away
The culture keeper, the Teacher, this what I'm supposed to say
There's got to be a better way to hear our music every day
B-boys gettin' blown away but comin' outside anyway
We tried again outside in Cedar Park
Power from a street light made the place dark
But yo we didn't care, we turned it out
I know a few understand what I'm talkin' about
Remember Bronx River pullin' triggers countin' figures pourin' liquor
Lyric spitter shake and shiver glam and glitter
The mic mixer, I'm just a party ripper
OJ vodka sipper, here's a little advice: think bigger
[Chorus: G Simone]
Think bigger
Think bigger
Think bigger
Think love
Think peace
Think life
Think free
Think bigger
