High Life

Hook:
Wanna  know, wanna know‚ wanna know why the limelight never shines bright
‘Cause  it’s
Real hard when you’re living in the dark in the sunshine on the front lines
With a ho
Gotta  know gotta know gotta know when your time’s right
Get  your mind right
I lose my friends in the end‚ that’s what I might
What’s  the cost when your lost in the high life?

Verse 1:
Ice cold Miller‚ I’m chillin’, I might go
With some hippie flippin shit to find my Jhene Aiko
“Can  I get in?”
“Who you know?”
You fakin’ on what you own
But everybody that did it didn’t do it on their own way
So got off my ass and worked the shit lonely
Pushed out my past, the present my only
Look at me now‚ girls back that up on me
Cashin’ on the couch with 40s but I’m sippin’ lonely

Pre-chorus:
My mind’s on the grass but I don’t see sky (sky, sky)
Head in the clouds, I think I’m too high

Chorus:
Wanna know‚ wanna know, wanna know why the limelight never shines bright
‘Cause it’s
Real hard when you’re living in the dark in the sunshine on the front lines
With a ho
Gotta know gotta know gotta know when your time’s right
Get your mind right
I lose my friends in the end, that’s what I might
What’s the cost when your lost in the high life?

Verse 2:
And when I’m lookin’ for some passion I pour up
And I’ve been chasing butterflies with the doors up
And still a smile’s sittin’ cold on my shoulder
And what I’m gettin’ never seems to be closure
Tell me why you look so good but steer me wrong when you be singin’ your songs?
Even though I listen you dismiss me
Turn your back, shut the door and you’re gone

Pre-chorus:
My mind’s on the grass but I don’t see sky (sky, sky)
Head in the clouds, I think I’m too high

Refrain:
Hollow is my soul
Empty is my throne

Chorus:
Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know why the limelight never shines bright
‘Cause it’s
Real hard when you’re living in the dark in the sunshine on the front lines
With a ho
Gotta know gotta know gotta know when your time’s right
Get your mind right
I lose my friends in the end, that’s what I might
What’s the cost when your lost in the high life?
