One Man Can Change The World

They used to tell me

I hope you learn to make it on your own

If your love yourself , just know you'll never be alone

I hope that you get everything you wanted that you chose

I hope that it's the realest thing that you ever know

Hope you get the pretty girls, that's pretty at everything

Million dollar cribs, havin' million dollar dreams

And when you get it all, just remember one thing

Remember one thing

That one man could change the world

That one man could change the world

[Verse 1: Big Sean]

All I, all I wanted was a hundred million dollars and a bad chick

Imagine this so much some nights it felt like that I had it

Back on the mattress

Starin' at the ceilin' tryna connect the dots

But its hard makin' those attachments

I'm talkin' dreamin' so hard, some nights it felt like draft day

You know? My-my step brother used to flip them bags outside the crib like it was trash day. No Kim K, but he bagged yay(Ye)

But when you're getting fast money, slow down, don't crash

With all the drive in the world, swear you still need gas

Look, think about it, close your eyes, dream about it

Tell your team about it, go make million dollar schemes about it

Success is on the way, I feel it in the distance

Used to look up at the stars and be like," ain't too much that's different"

I be shinin',they be shinin'

Get your one shot ,don't you miss it.

What you know bout' wakin' up everyday like you on a mission?

And I hope you learn to make it on your own

If your love yourself, just know you'll never be alone

I hope that you get everything you wanted that you chose

I hope that it's the realest thing that you ever know

Hope you get the pretty girls, that's pretty at everything

Million dollar cribs, havin' million dollar dreams

And when you get it all, just remember one thing

Remember one thing

That one man could change the world

That one man could change the world

[Verse 2: Big Sean]

My grandma told me," if you write your name in stone you'll never get the white out"

I grinded out that black hole then performed up at the White House

Standin' next to Jim Carrey, we traded stories, then laughed

I said you not the only one I know got rich wearin' masks

Where I'm from,I swear they broke, they need way more than the cast

We need more than what you have

And then we need more than that

But how am I supposed to say I'm tired

If that girl from West Virginia came up in conditions that I couldn't survive?

Went to war, came back alive

On top of that became a female black captain

When being black, you had to extra-extra try

Way before James Brown made us proud

She bought a crib on the same street as Marvin Gaye

Right there on Outer Drive, and she taught me how to drive

And she raised the kids, then the kids' kids, and she did it right

Taught me how to love, taught me not to cry

When I die, I hope you teach me how to fly

All my life you've been that angel in disguise, sayin'...

I hope you learn to make it on your own

If your love yourself, just know you'll never be alone

I hope that you get everything you wanted that you chose

I hope that it's the realest thing that you ever know

Hope you get the pretty girls, that's pretty at everything

Million dollar cribs, havin' million dollar dreams

And when you get it, all just remember one thing

Remember one thing

That one man can change the world

That one man can change the world

Grandma: Thank you for callin' me, been thinkin' about me

[Outro]

Big Sean: It's all good I love you grandma

Grandma: Bye
