We can get along
But I'll still keep the piece to keep the beast away from me
I know he's waiting patiently for me to arrive
I survived so many nights and my torturous ways
So really, it's myself the one that should be afraid
I walk a tight rope between God and the reaper and I'm ready
For either but they leave it up to me to choose my path
I got this wrath inside my chest and it's burning, don't get rest
Sometime I feel like it's a test
But rest assured, I know therе's more
To life than this, you blink, you miss
Next thing you know you'rе deep in shit
Thinking about the things you could've done different,
I know we wish upon the stars
But know they way too far
When do we give up?
When that liquor don't give you hiccups
And those pills don't get your dick up
Why do we get high?
To balance out the lows?
Why do we sit by and watch the world implode?
Not getting younger and that's getting really old
Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told
Why do we get high?
To balance out the lows?
Why do we sit by and watch the world implode?
Not getting younger and that's getting really old
Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told
Get your diploma
Go to college
You might be somebody
You hang with bums
You might become one
Boy, just think about it
Can't go too far with shackles on your feet
Connected to the weakest link
In your crew (Don't hold me back, don't hold me down)
Don't hold me back
Don't hold me down
Just let me swim or maybe drown
You surround yourself with clowns, well, what that make you?
Got a lot to go around but when that bank account drown
No one is to be found so what's that tell you?
Why do we get high?
To balance out the lows?
Why do we sit by and watch the world implode?
Not getting younger and that's getting really old
Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told
Why do we get high?
To balance out the lows?
Why do we sit by and watch the world implode?
Not getting younger and that's getting really old
Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told
I lock myself in my room every night
With my pistol grip tight
Fighting demons left and right with all my might
I might convince myself that i'm the chosen one
For everyone to leech off
But fuck that
I can't be the one to feed all
No you won't be taking advantage
Need a Xanax for the damage
To the canvas of my life I gotta manage
Step to the side if you ain't riding with me bitch
I need someone I could confide in with no judgement
Or passive agressiveness
Why do we get high?
To balance out the lows?
Why do we sit by and watch the world implode?
Not getting younger and that's getting really old
Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told
Why do we get high?
To balance out the lows?
Why do we sit by and watch the world implode?
Not getting younger and that's getting really old
Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told

Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told
Liberate your mind and soon the soul will follow
Gotta keep my tips hollow
And my dick swallowed
Drowning in my sorrows
Praying for tomorrow
Flying down the I9 like OJ in the bronco
For the love of money
Ya I need it pronto
The fame is overrated
And quite frankly hard to handle
Way too many situations tend to turn to scandals
You can't bury with me lies bitch
So put away them candles
Why do we get high?
To balance out the lows?
Why do we sit by and watch the world implode?
Not getting younger and that's getting really old
Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told
Why do we get high?
To balance out the lows?
Why do we sit by and watch the world implode?
Not getting younger and that's getting really old
Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told
Race against the clock
We die for drop tops
Long walks in flip flops
Out the dark into the light
In spite of everything I did wrong
I hope they singing my song
When i'm long gone
I hope I make it through the long haul
That we call life
When it comes to this rap shit
I got the Midas touch
I'm like Kobe clutch
With the 40 tucked
'Cause I never trust nobody
Even second guess myself
Keep my eyes wide up (yuh)
I keep my eyes wide open
Why do we get high?
To balance out the lows?
Why do we sit by and watch the world implode?
Not getting younger and that's getting really old
Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told
Why do we get high?
To balance out the lows?
Why do we sit by and watch the world implode?
Not getting younger and that's getting really old
Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told
Why do we get high
Get-get-high
Get
Why do we get high
Get-get-high
Get
Why do we
Why do we get high
