[Verse 1: Cee]
I remember my first hit, I was 15 in a park
And my homie handed me a packed bong with a spark
And he told me how do it right
I lit it up and I pulled that shit back like a champ and I knew that I
Would really take a liking to it
I can't front, coz the high'd have me shook a bit
The homies I was rolling and smoking with didn't look legit
We was hiding in the bushes by the mall
We wasn't seen so we could get it did
With Clear Eyes and deodorant, gum so my parents wasn't smelling shit
That teenager rebellious
The water pipes started feeling fucked
Plus the smoke was too much at one time so I rolled it up
And so began a love affair with the green though
Everywhere I'm going, I be dealing with the weed smoke
But as the fog was clearing out of my mind
I reminisce on when I used to be high, when I used to be high
[Hook: Cee]
Light it up, go 'head and light it up
This a party bruh, I'm tryina get us high as fuck
Vape it up, homie vape it up
Ain't nobody getting blazed as us (when I used to be high)
Eat it up, brother eat it up
I'm 'bout the cookie life, I'm finna to get us looking right
Nowadays I'm getting suitably vibed
Because I'm older and I'm grown, I kinda smile at when I used to be high
[Verse 2: Cee]
Yeah, so I took a break for a couple years
But every now and then, the kid indulging in a spliff
Shit, then I started working at a call centre
And if you wasn't high, you'd fuckin' kill 'em all, innit
In the whip, on the way, on break
Even after, bruh trust me, we be higher than the rafters
Then I met the homie Rev, he could rap and make beats
Plus he loved to smoke weed, man we clicked through the green
So I taught him 'bout bars, and he schooled me on soul music
We was a motherfucking cold unit
But the high got the best of us
We was in the lab for more than a year straight and still we barely got a record cut
I moved to Canada, I puffed strong
I moved back, dog I puffed strong, lungs was barely holding on
With me and Notion getting lit each night
Those were some fuckin' good times, I was happy when I used to be high
[Hook: Cee]
[Verse 3: Cee]
The more I smoked, man the more I'm getting sick from it
I loved the high but it wasn't worth the pain from it
Throat sore and I'm coughing up green shit
Another week ruined coz I'm fucking getting lifted
And I remember it vividly
October 2009, the last time that I hit the green
The next nine months, I ain't tryina lie, cuz
I was just a moody, pissed off, unhigh cunt
And then my brother saved my motherfucking life dude
He hit me with a cookie with the weed butter inside, true
I ate it quick and I was high outta my fucking mind
And in that little moment, dog, I knew I found my vibe
So I been eating and vaping
But it's always business first, bruh, the buzz is like a reward for the patience
And the hustle never quit but the high, it keeps me balancing shit
And never regretting a second when I used to be high
