[Chorus]
Ooh-wee, yes Lord
High beams, we goin'
Yes, we stay low
I feel way gone
Ooh-wee, yes Lord
I've been slept on (Slept on)
They late (They late), can't go (Can't go)
High beams, we goin'
[Verse 1]
I be just mindin' my bidness
Wildin' with God as my witness
Why niggas worry 'bout winnin'?
My nigga eyes on the millions
Fightin', it's time for the blood
Shot at the plug
Throwin' my hands, I got press showing love
Bars like a devil, my words like a dove
Tunnel my vision, I feed 'em with love
Cirque du Soleil, yeah, this life kind of rough
Penniless man told me, "Wise up the scruff"
Weed's gettin' loud and my head's gettin' tough
Corny ass haters, I see through the bluff
See through the mud, see who to trust
Nothing is promised, so I gotta bust
Coppin' it late so the run is a must
These sacrifices we make is a must
[Chorus]
Ooh-wee, yes Lord
High beams, we goin'
Yes, we stay low
I feel way gone
Ooh-wee, yes Lord
I've been slept on (Slept on)
They late (They late), can't go (Can't go)
High beams, we goin'
[Post-Chorus]
High beams (We goin')
High beams (We goin')
High beams (We goin')
[Verse 2]
I've been feelin' like I'm, yeah, I'm runnin', yeah, I'm runnin' free
With the wind, I'm the kid smilin' to the sun
Oh Lord, love me all these memories
What a bliss, inner peace
Inner state of mind, innocence
To give me that and let it be, jelly beans (High beams)
I get all my meds from a telly screen
I get all the chips on the deck
And the foot on the neck, that's collateral damage when I snap
Flesh, yeah
Eatin' the flesh, yeah
Why you so precious?
Why you look pressured?
Hidin', fightin', smoke
Hidin', oh, fightin', oh
Oh my God, oh my God, fight and shoot
Fighting you
This ain't no games, yeah, it's on when I shoot
Labels are gettin' the feeling and
[Chorus]
Ooh-wee, yes Lord
High beams, we goin'
Yes, we stay low
I feel way gone
Ooh-wee, yes Lord
I've been slept on (Slept on)
They late (They late), can't go (Can't go)
High beams, we goin'
[Post-Chorus]
High beams (We goin')
High beams (We goin')
High beams (We goin')
High beams (We goin')
High beams (We goin')
High beams (We goin')
High beams (We goin')
High beams (We goin')
