Cam'ron – Big Deal lyrics

[Intro]
Like a bullet to my head
Like a fool, I pretend
That it's on again
On again (Uh, uh, yo)

[Verse 1]
Michelle told me a story, man, I felt her
Her dream's in the sky, but her life is in the cellar
Public assistance was been supposed to help her
She said, "Cam'ron, can't you hear me cryin'?"
I called section eight like, "Get my homie out the shelter"
Gave her 50K, gave her a kiss, called her bella
Invest it wisely, don't turn into Cinderella
I don't wanna you say (Say), Can't you hear me cryin'?
Meanwhile, I'm in Margielas, I'm spinnin' like some propellers
And everybody is jealous because I'm flyer than Delta
But to get here, I passed a note to a teller
Pulled the swammy out, *gun cocking, gunshot* (Killa)
And I was lyin', when? Come on, try again
Even the skit's real, cousin Bang did a five to ten
Could be on the beach, instead he's in the lion's den
He'll never say, "Can't you hear me cryin'?", yes

[Chorus]
'Cause I am a big deal
They, they, they, they say I got it
I smile 'cause I have to
But Hud 6, can't you hear me cryin'?
'Cause I am a big deal, what they say?
They, they, they, they say I got it
I smile 'cause I have to
But Bloodshed, can't you hear me cryin'?, uh, uh

[Verse 2]
Listen here, girl, I know not what the drama 'bout
Drama, that's when the feds pull up to mama house
Turned her back, slammed the door, homie, what ya mama 'bout?
Sometime I got the shot, can't you hear me cryin'?
Brain started to shift when Rakim made Mahogany
When I decided I had a problem with poverty
Prophecy, thinkin' homicide, but still logically
Now, stars in the car, the ceilin' know astrology
I ain't have a dollar B, I'm lucky Toy acknowledged me
This around the time the Wu had me wearin' wallabes
Said, "You the one Cam", I said, "Yeah, I gotta be"
Now I'm a father, B, can't you hear me cryin'?, y'all don't bother me
But I do this for the castaways, those movin' a pack a day
Don't gotta be a bag of yay' you could be shippin' hats away
If you ain't tryna get it, go that-a-way
That's why I had to say, can't you hear me cryin'? (Killa, killa)

[Chorus]
'Cause I am a big deal
They, they, they, they say I got it
I smile 'cause I have to
But Hud 6, can't you hear me cryin'?
'Cause I am a big deal, what they say?
They, they, they, they say I got it
I smile 'cause I have to
But Bloodshed, can't you hear me cryin'?

[Outro]
Uh, uh, uh-huh, uh-huh
Uh, uh, uh, uh
What they say? But Hud 6, can't you hear me cryin'?
But Bloodshed, uh, uh, uh
