BIG

Little girl in a red and white dress
Sittin' front row for picture day
Her mom spent all mornin' tyin' up her hair
In a bow, with just a touch of spray

There she is, smilin' ear-to-ear
Teacher says, "You gotta stand in the back
You know you're too tall, be quiet, stay small"
And you bet she learned to live with that

Ain't that the story?
Sayin' sorry just for bein' yourself
So insecure 'bout somethin' I couldn't help

I'm big, larger than life
A million miles high
That once-in-a-century
Big, if legends are loud
And built to stand out
Guess that's who I'm meant to be
Ten feet tall and I'm proud of it
You can't make me smaller
You'll never make me fit
'Cause, baby, I was born to be big

I wanna feel, I wanna let it all in
Wanna laugh until I wanna cry
'Cause it's a big world for a big-hearted
Big girl, keep on runnin' 'til I run it dry

You ain't seen nothin'
I won't apologize for takin' up space
I'm not gonna fight it
I belong out of place

'Cause I'm big, larger than life
A million miles high
That once-in-a-century
Big, if legends are loud
And built to stand out
Guess that's who I'm meant to be
Ten feet tall and I'm proud of it
You can't make me smaller
You'll never make me fit
'Cause, baby, I was born to be big

Ain't that the story?

'Cause I'm big, larger than life
A million miles high
That once-in-a-century
Big, if legends are loud
And built to stand out
Guess that's who I'm meant to be
Ten feet tall and I'm proud of it
You can't make me smaller
You'll never make me fit
'Cause, baby, I was born to be big

And I learned I was born to be big
Baby, I was born to be big
