There is an alternate life beyond that which is known to the common man
It is a life as bountiful as heaven, and as painful as hell itself
It is the middle ground between imagination and reality
Between greatness and impotence
And it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his potential
This is the life of the artist
It is a life which I call
The High Life
Hit 'em with the 1 2 3 4 5
It ain't ever fun to be alive
Everybody wants they piece of the pie
Everybody wants they peace of mind
Leave the deceased on the side
I got some g's in the ride
Birds and bees on the fly
Got her knees on my thighs
Got her jeans on the nightstand, pop two beans 'for the flight lands
I put the gang on the map
I put the bang on the track
I put the money in the bank
I put the mummy in the wrap
I put the bodies in the bag
I want a Bentley and a Range
I want some Fendi and a chain
Sippin' on Henny in the rain
Actin all friendly 'til the fame hits
Same shit different day sorry for the lateness
Look at me now
Bitch I'm the talk of the town
F*ck with me now
I wasn't f*ckin' around
Pound for pound I'm a featherweight
I got that sound lemme elevate
Imma wear the bust down for a dinner date
Imitation is the greatest form of flattery
So come sit back watch and imitate
I'm like Goku I be supersai
When I roll through I be super fly
I don't know you like the Uber guy
Scope through with the bop boop with the shooter's eye
To the UAE flyin' to Dubai
This between you and me f*ck the other guy
I was movin' in the streets got no alibi
Spittin' prophecy with my speech like Malachi
No time for conversation, I got that combination cracked
No time for innovation, creation is a task
No time for meditation, no time to relax
No time for information, when I take it to the bank!
Been putting my nose to the grindstone
I sent the dope over three different time zones
On that working' all night mode
HiGHconic the gang over three different time zones
Like where did the time go?
Stuck in my head but what does my mind know?
Like where were the signs though?
I was looking for something sublime just to find hope
Like stop
Run it back
Davey why you movin' that dope like that?
Like hop
On the track
Spittin them flames caught the smoke right back
Who this?
Who that?
Davey got the game and the stroke like that
Cuttin' through the lane with the float like SPLASH!
Dave Life aim for the throat like SLASH!
Yeah I flood the streets kill the beat
I just hope the industry is feelin' me
'Cause I bring the energy the chemistry
I don't got no enemies they friends to me (Bish hol'up)
That type shit doesn't even make sense to me
Maybe eventually I could resentfully
Cut the semantics and learn what it meant to me
Stop with my antics and start a new synergy
All of these packages that I've been dealin'
Been addin' a stack on the load I've been feelin'
Been killin' me silly me hope that you feelin' me
Ris Gee and Billy be up in the stu with me usually
Shit!
I spit it stupidly I spit the lunacy
Wearin' a Gucci tee under the Louie V
Music just ain't what it used to be
You should get used to me
Shit!
This music just ain't what it used to be you should get used to me
Shit! Shit!
I guess you should get used to me
Shit!
Music just ain't what it used to be
You should get u... You should get used to me
