High On Life (When The Drugs Don’t Work)

[Verse 1]
I'm a rebel, a writer, a poet and a fighter
Ride for me and my niggas, for them I give me life up
A son, a brother, a nephew and a cousin
I does it for them cause without them I'd be nothing
I struggle, I hustle, I'm a nigga with attitude
These fuckers try to kill the black in you
Accept me for who I am, (yeah)
See I will never dumb down, thats not what I'm about
I'm a artist make my music get the money then I'm out my friend
But then I'm back again

[Chorus]
When the drugs don't work no more, you get high on life
That's what they say when you feeling down
That's what they say when you feeling down (yeah)

When the drugs don't work no more, you get high on life
That's what they say when you feeling down
That's what they say when you feeling down (yeah)

[Verse 2]
And It seems like everybody loves my flow
But what a flow without a heart? I must touch a soul
Before I leave this Earth for heaven
And when I do, tell my children to play fly fly fresh forever
I'm a 24/7 it 365 it all 4 quarter
I'm a keep on grindin and our work is never over
There is no rest for the wicked I'm trying to own every single moment
See if they pass me by
And I die then I have nothing to tell grandpa in afterlife
Thats why I kill today in case I'm gone tonight
I live life to the fullest like I'm close to dying lord
I pour my soul on these beats
So I can sleep without havin holes in my dreams
Cause at the end of the day I owe it to me and that's all

[Chorus]
When the drugs don't work no more, you get high on life
That's what they say when you feeling down
That's what they say when you feeling down (yeah)

When the drugs don't work no more, you get high on life
That's what they say when you feeling down
That's what they say when you feeling down (yeah)

[Verse 3]
For the longest I played the roll as an underdog
But imma rockstar with the guitar, Jay Z when he did wonderwall
Don't spark a conversation, cause you ain't saying nothing
Let the money talk for ya
Don't mention my name unless we talking money
Being a wordsmith it ain't worth shit, if situations ain't working
Put in work until it's working, do dirt if that's needed
Believe me when I say life's appetite for destruction
It's a motherfucker, don't let her eat ya
So when you meet her, kiss her on the forehead
Tell her spirits live longer life, there is no death
I'm so it, I'm so fit, if they say so
Put anything on my shoulder, I'll hold it like it's nothing
I look you dead in the eyes and that look will never exit your mind
Not even if your memories dies
(You will remember me for life)

[Chorus]
When the drugs don't work no more, you get high on life
That's what they say when you feeling down
That's what they say when you feeling down (yeah)
When the drugs don't work no more, you get high on life
That's what they say when you feeling down
That's what they say when you feeling down (yeah)
You can't touch me, I'm on a different plan

[Verse 4]
You know since I got to learn, I'm a father who was very abusive
The only thing that was therapeutic was hearing music
You can't take that away from me
I'm not like you all
Never...
