Meaning/Explanation: One Man Can Change The World by Big Sean


Via YouTube

This track was published on Big Sean’s official YouTube account; after his album ‘Dark Sky Paradise’ was released on February 24, 2015. Big Sean is signed to GOODMusic a label owned by Kanye West; who was featured on the track alongside John Legend. Video begins with Big Sean sitting in the backseat of a car that has no wheels, and held by bricks where a little child appears, when the camera zooms out. Video continues with the child from his bedroom window seeing his older brother doing drugs, and then goes on to show bullets on the ground. Next scene is at a funeral home, where loved ones mourn the death of the brother.

 Big Sean raps “My grandma told me, If you write your name in stone. You'll never get the white out" his grandmother’s advice is make a legacy that cannot be written over. Now as the video goes on you start to realize the hook “I hope you learn to make it on your own. And if you love yourself just know you'll never be alone”, is a message to listeners who are striving to make their dreams come to a reality. You will have doubts creep into your mind, but don’t feel afraid to ask for help from your loved ones, or from people who are experiencing identical behaviors. Also, the child portrays us the listeners in the video, he will have to learn on how to make it on his own (Achieve his dream) without guidance from his older brother.

Now the meaning of “One Man Can Change The World” stats that if one man can change one thing in the world, then any one man can change another part of the world. You just have to believe like no other. In the end, I hope this piece of my knowledge of the track can help you, and feel free to comment on what you feel I the meaning of the track. Enjoy the video above, my friend.
