As the pressure grew
How do you
As an international speaker
With all of your attention
How do you cope with all of the pressure?
In terms of hate and everything that goes on
Um, quite easily
From a very basic thing
I know what my intent is
And I'm very grounded in it
And I deploy enormous amounts of empathy
To my haters
When somebody leaves a comment
That I'm a charlatan
Or a snake oil salesman
Or my daddy gave me the money to build the liquor store
And I shouldn't be listened to
I understand why they say that
I know it's not true
It feeds me
In a very good way
And so, for me, to be very honest with you
It's been very easy
Because when your intent is pure
I think about succeeding in one very simple story
There are two ways, my friends
To build the biggest building in town
Step number one
(Chorus)
Just build the biggest building in town
Build the biggest building in town
Step number one
Step number one
Just build the biggest building in town
Build the biggest building in town
Step number two
Build a decent-sized building
And then spend all your time trying to tear
Everybody else's building around you down
So, you end up being
The biggest building in town
My friend
95% of people try to do number two
But when you know you can build
The fucking biggest building in town
You do that
You do that
And so, because I know what my intent is
I just don't value anybody's opinion
About me
Including my parents and wife and children
More than I value my opinion about myself
2x (Chorus)
Just build the biggest building in town
Build the biggest building in town
Step number one
Step number one
Just build the biggest building in town
Build the biggest building in town
