[Intro]
Oh oh (yeah)
Oh oh (Uh huh)
Oh oh
Oh oh (yeah)
Oh oh (Alright)
(Let's do it) Oh oh
Oh oh
(Yeah) Oh oh
Look, tell the nigga bring the beat in, uh
Let the motherfucker bass pop
Turn the god damn track around
'Til you could feel it from the front to the back with the bump in the trunk
Don't that that down nigga, let that shit knock
Thought I told 'em I would never stop
Are you mad that a young motherfucker that was living with a dream givin' every
Single thing that he got?
[Verse 1: K.A.A.N.]
There ain't no reason for the flow switch
I wanna reminisce I gotta stay focused
And I can speed it up and try to give you something that is different
So I can make 'em listen but I wanna tell a story bout the way that I've been livin' take it back to 9-5 try to understand the thoughts in a young nigga mind
The man I've become an what do I define
By default i've been livin' in a steep decline
And the trailer park we up in deep run
We had low funds, a real small budget
There was 5 of us in that one space
With animosity that you can't face
My father wake up in the morning like
What the fuck are we finna do
My older brother pissed off
And he don't wanna go to school
He was mad at my father for everything that he put him through
We lookin' at the world with a different kind of point of view
To tell the truth my father wasn't nothing but a fiend
By the time I came around
A nigga had got clean
Lost so much time tryna focus on the pipe
Now you wanna be a father to your kids, alright
And my older brothers [[?]]
No time for looking back
Rather get it by himself yelling mutherfuck dad
Heading for the front door that was an obvious fact
And the pain that my older brother was feeling was real
But there ain't no way to cope when you couldn't even deal
And he was feeling abandoned, stranded understand that
He roll a couple blunts only way that he could manage
The man gotta live with the damage that was already caused
And there's nothing you can say nigga any fucking way with a damn staright face you are part of the reason why that mutherfucker gotta stay
[Chorus: Tove Lo]
High
All the time
To climb too high
All the time
To climb too high
All the time
To keep you off my mind
High
All the time
To climb too high
All the time
To climb too high
All the time
To keep you off my mind
[Verse 2: K.A.A.N.]
It's 5 AM and my eyes are wide so I can't sleep
And now we out of the trailer
And we live in a house instead of same shit
So when that thing sweep
But with the way that I act I know you're prolly gonna tell it
Developing my destain so i kill it with the pain
My Brain is fucked up from everything that i heard
The walls were so thin i listen to every word
Absurd that i was made to believe that i was something
When my father wasn't running that nigga was steady bugging And yelling on the top of his lungs about something that was Miniscule within the bigger picture if you ask me
Discussing 'bout the situation i was living in
I been depending on a person that ain't never really gave a fuck
I focused on all the wrong things
Man, that nigga didn't wanna spend no mutherfuckin' time
And you must have lost your mind tryne tell me I was makin' up a story
Or forming a new opinion that really isn't that different
From the one you have when growing up is kinda tough
And when a fella wanna love I knew you wouldn't give a fuck
Is that enough I've had it up to here with all of your illusions
You really think it's that confusing
Cuz at this point it's ammusing
I try to break it down in a way you'll understand
I'm now in the process of becoming a man
What i learned from my father was never really taught
Mouth closed eyes wide to observe and to watch but within
That time i saw what not to be
And I know i can never leave with Hypocrisies
I prefer to write a record 'bout everything that I seen
And an accurate depiction of the way i really live
I put the pen on the page my story'll leave you amazed
I've been feeling kinda crazy the pain don't faze me
[Chorus: Tove Lo]
