In collaboration with Weedmaps and NORML, Afroman returns with a new spin on his biggest hit – the immortal “Because I Got High” – as a way of promoting the positive effects of the legalisation of marijuana.

[Intro]
Ironically, I care about everything!
[Verse 1]
I had problems with glaucoma, but then I got high
Smelled the cannabis aroma, and I got high
Glaucoma getting better and I know why
[Chorus]
Because I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high
[Verse 2]
I used to smoke cigarettes, but then I got high
Getting tired and call it quits, but them I got high
I'm playing basketball and jogging and I know why
[Chorus]
Because I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high
[Verse 3]
I used to drink beer and wine, but then I got high
I woke up feeling fine, because I got high
My hangover's over and I know why
[Chorus]
Because I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high
[Verse 4]
Anxiety attacks, but then I got high
I used to take Xanax, but then I got high
No more prescription pills, and I know why
[Chorus]
Because I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high
[Verse 5]
The state made revenue, because I got high
They built a school or two, because I got high
Now the state can fund drug treatment, and I know why
[Chorus]
Because I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high
[Verse 6]
No more criminal traps if it's legalized
I don't have to buy from gang bangers shooting craps, if it's legalized
I can advocate with Weedmaps and I know why
[Refrain]
It's legalized
It's legalized
It's legalized
