[Verse 1]
Yeah, uh, look
Yo who you know that did it all on his own
And found the rent of his town
Out in Cali with the stoners
Take a trip then I bounced
Remember chicks was never on me
But they feeling me now
And everybody want to roll
'Cause I'd invented this town
And took it far
The team strong, you can't be a part of it
Still with the same homies that I started with
If we put our mind to it we can all get rich
So if it ain't about the paper, why you bothering?
[Pre-Chorus]
Another day (another day)
Another night (another night)
Another show to rock and then another flight (another flight)
A city a day (a city a day)
This is the life
High fashion ish, champagne on ice
Went past my parents
That's something they don't like (don't like)
But don't cry, little nigga, go grind (go grind)
And you'll shine (you'll shine)
I'm only here for one night
It's kinda like I'm living in the sky
[Chorus]
I'm so fly
This California chronic got a nigga so high
It's only right the universe got me living in the sky
Don't care what they say, I just live my life
Okay fine because I live in the sky
[Verse 2]
Uh, I never let a hater keep me down
Because I stay high, literally
On an airplane up in the sky
Nothing but my carry-on
Your chick looking at the gong
I hit it like Barry Bonds cause I'm hotter than the sun
People sing every song at the shows that I preform
Got me feeling like Michael Jackson, Tyson, and Jordan
Took my time when I wrote it
They acknowledge when spoken
Came from the bottom with roaches
That's why I gotta do it
If you only get one shot
Then why would you blow it?
Why would you jeopardize the tree you've been growing?
For another grown man that can't hold his own hand
And he'll sit in front of the judge and tell on his own fam
I'm like damn
That's why I'm me, give a fuck what they think
I departed in Philly then woke up in L.A
Bitch I am a young god in the clouds
And they ask me how I'm living in the sky
Probably 'cause...
[Chorus]
I'm so fly
This California chronic got a nigga so high
It's only right the universe got me living in the sky
Don't care what they say, I just live my life
Okay fine because I live in the sky
[Bridge]
Uh (so high), hustling and trying to make the payroll
Probably only hundreds in my bank though (so high)
To the top, I'm climbing every day though
I be getting high, but I lay low (so high)
Hustling and trying to make the payroll
Probably only hundreds in my bank though (so high)
To the top, I'm climbing every day though
I be getting high, but I lay low (so high)
Said I ain't never coming down
I ain't never finna land (so high)
At the top is where I am
And it's all because my fans (so high)
Said I ain't never coming down
Said I ain't never finna land (so high)
At the top is where I am
And it's probably 'cause a nigga...
[Chorus]
So fly
This California chronic got a nigga so high
It's only right the universe got me living in the sky
Don't care what they say, I just live my life
Okay fine because I live in the sky
[Outro]
So fly, yeah
So fly, yeah
