Desmond Michael - Never High lyrics
[Desmond Michael - Never High lyrics]
Life is like a drug but I never indulge
Watch it pass, never catch whatever it was
Life is so giving, but she’s not forgiving
Best hope not to choke
Can't take a single breath for granted
Can't catch it you start to panic
Any chance you got to move ahead
Take advantage
I’ve never been high
And I don’t think I ever will be
I work myself silly
To make it to that hundred milly
And that’s the only thing in my eye sight
Yeah I spy
With my little eye
So many missed chancеs is that right?
Yeah that’s right
But look at the success I got now
My hеad above the clouds
And all I can ask is how
Can I maintain this life
That’s why I’m always on the grind
For a better time, a better price
Better point, a better life
Life is like a drug but I never indulge
Watch it pass, never catch whatever it was
Never ever high, never ever high
I just wanna chill and smoke but
I can’t catch a fire
I'm leaving this Missouri behind
Goodbye to my old life
Every night
I would think of how to make everything right
If I could’ve flown away
Just start life like another day
Stepping out and looking up
Hope the sun shines on me so bright
Growing up
All I saw were folks with no goals
People who seemed numb to
Being ignorant and broke
Just want to get myself and my
Mom up out this hole
So I use loopholes and trick
No one will ever know
I got a pool on my roof
What do I have to be sad for?
I live in the heart of Hollywood
What should I be mad for?
My life is so much better
Than what it was before
But so many things I had to
Sweep out of my door
Cut some friends and family off
I hate to do it cause I love them
They say I’ve changed too much
What do you want from me
I gave you all my trust and
You crush it like nothing
That’s why I’m on the top floor
Feel like I’m still suffering
Cause when you move up
They just have to drag you down
People that said they’d always be around
And be down
They said they’d come up with you
Now they diss you
I guess trust just don’t mean enough
What’s worse? When I think about them
It’s still all love
"But you’ve gained so much
Who cares how you and your mama feel
If you have more than I, then
It’s fine to take yours
That’s the deal
Oh come on man, don’t trip
I thought you’d keep it real
Don’t get uppity now
I’m bout to make a steal"
Who cares how much I got? It’s mine
And only mine!
I worked to earn it all
So your jealousy can kiss my behind
I live selfish with the fear that
Trusting will make me wanna die
Trust I’m the only one I need
I’ll never need the high of life
I don’t need support from family and friends
All they ever do is judge and take
I got enough sins
The day I trust another human is
The day my life will end
Barrel to my head, like Cobain
I’ll never be high again
Watch it pass, never catch whatever it was
Life is so giving, but she’s not forgiving
Best hope not to choke
Can't take a single breath for granted
Can't catch it you start to panic
Any chance you got to move ahead
Take advantage
I’ve never been high
And I don’t think I ever will be
I work myself silly
To make it to that hundred milly
And that’s the only thing in my eye sight
Yeah I spy
With my little eye
So many missed chancеs is that right?
Yeah that’s right
But look at the success I got now

And all I can ask is how
