Lyrics
[Intro]
Yeah
Hey, hey
Mm, bass, bass
Nah-nah-nah, nah-nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah
Yeah, look
[Verse 1]
I'ma make this album in a week
Long as Nat keep feeding me trees
As long as Dahi feed me beats
I got heat, parentheses, insert generic line
About the sun or LeBron
You know the kind these rappers always say
I'm miles away, I'm Miles Davis
Horny up in Hollywood and mildly famous
Miley Cyrus on a molly
I don't judge, just smile and wave
And by the way, this shit been goin'
Shit just flowin' out of me
I'm proud to say, I got diarrhea in my diary
My mind ablaze, can fill a thousand pages up with observa'
My monologues bring honesty
You **** hard, oh, how cliche
'Cause yesterday you was a fucking punk and somehow not today
You gon' go and pop that trunk, but fear don't pump inside of me
Your bitch be looking at a **** like the one that got away
Your **** looking at a **** like the one, is that okay?
Or do you wish to see me breathless, watch my spirit fly away?
Do what you must, I had a fear of death, that shit just died today
[Chorus]
Take a look at the concrete, see a flower emerge
Pistols carried by cowards, I got more powers with words
Put my faith in the pen, let the ink wash all of my sins
The judge called it murder, my **** called it revenge
And see, we all got to die some day, some way
White people dyin' in they sleep, my **** die from gunplay
Well, if the Lord call my name to free me from my chains
Cremate a ****, roll a blunt with my remains
[PostChorus]
Get high, get high, get high, get high
Get high, get high, get high, get high
Get high, get high, get high, get high
Get high, get high, get high, get high, get high
[Verse 2]
In my car, ****, I chase many dreams
I was a hustler, created plenty schemes
To get enough of what I need, I would do anything
I swear to God, these **** don't want to see me bling
A **** tryna get it in with this pen, though
So I could do a lil' something for the kin folk
Plus a **** got a little beef with bein' broke
And that's the kinda shit a **** usually sin for
Let the wind blow, I'm drifting with this, so see, I'm really all over the place
I cover lots of ground and I been creepin' on the come up for miles, and turn hundreds into thousands, into millions
Yes, I've chased the Devil, would sacrifice some things to make revenue
What would you do if you was living in the ghetto under dark grey skies?
I mean, they ain't never blue (True)
So instead of boo-hooin' all the time, I'ma do something about it
The solution was grind, get up, get it, live it, shine
Never living the life has never entered my mind
What do you mean? You're trying to say I can't eat
I know it's a dream, you're trying to say I can't live
Trying to tell me the sky ain't my limits
But I made it and I'm so high
[Chorus]
Take a look at the concrete, see a flower emerge
Pistols carried by cowards, I got more powers with words
Put my faith in the pen, let the ink wash all of my sins
The judge called it murder, my **** called it revenge
And see, we all got to die some day, some way
White people dyin' in they sleep, my **** die from gunplay
Well, if the Lord call my name to free me from my chains
Cremate a ****, roll a blunt with my remains
[PostChorus]
Get high, get high, get high, get high
Get high, get high, get high, get high
Get high, get high, get high, get high
Get high, get high, get high, get high, get high
[Verse 3]
Water breathers, fish on my mama's belly
Till my mama sneakers, Hannibal Lector sucked on that garnish keeper, baby
With a garbage sweepers, coffins are in the offices of all my teachers
Where awesome preachers write my shit in graffiti right on the walls in ether
Often reapers, master you name the place and we can all get deeper
The Mayan passed us quickly, we sick of the fear, my ****, we all Khalifa
Call Tomica, roll up another fat one, that's what I call gordita
Nine millimeter buck when the people are stuck, stay humble as fuck
Man, I'm used to two-seaters
A couple of freaks with moves that'll make you loser your peepers
When the stars twinkle, remember that we are nine trillion, but a large speaker
All heart, put on y'all blinkers and y'all thought we was all demons
Sanctified with sawed offs ranging use hollow with all reasons
All seasons, all we needin' is whispering winds and all leaves and
Call Eazy, Marcus and Jeffery Dahmer, y'all can haul eatin'
Croutons, hug **** and I mash they sammies with poupon
In a barn yard smoking cigarettes till I hurl, ****, get your groove on
[Chorus]
Take a look at the concrete, see a flower emerge
Pistols carried by cowards, I got more powers with words
Put my faith in the pen, let the ink wash all of my sins
The judge called it murder, my **** called it revenge
And see, we all got to die some day, some way
White people dyin' in they sleep, my **** die from gunplay
Well, if the Lord call my name to free me from my chains
Cremate a ****, roll a blunt with my remains
[PostChorus]
Get high, get high, get high, get high
Get high, get high, get high, get high
Get high, get high, get high, get high
Get high, get high, get high, get high, get high
