[Intro:]
(Bum ba ba bum)
(Midwest action)
Uh, yo
Uh, ello'!
Yeah mhm, mhm
Dr. genius, hey
[Verse 1:]
I be high, when I split a dutch and fill it up
I be high, when I get my money doubled up
I be high, when a model wanna let me cut
I be high, when I be shinin' cause my diamonds blush
I be low, when a nigga can't get away
I be low, when I can't seem to make a way
I be low, when I can't even feed myself
I be low, when I realize I'm by myself
But I be high, when I shopping for expensive clothes
I be high, when I get what I couldn't before
I be high, in the club while poppin bub
I be high, when I'm cruisin sitting on them doubs
But I be low, after shows in my dressing room
I be low, when I see that I'm a different dude
I be low, on the plane lookin at the sky
I be low, but my highs keep me really? tight?
[Chorus:]
I be high, then I be low
I be low, then I be high
It's like a brought a knife to a gun fight
But I be cool, this the story of my life
I be high, then I be low
I be low, then I be high
It's like a brought a knife to a gun fight
No need to worry, this the story of my life
[Verse 2:]
I be low, when I gotta get ready for work
I be low, cause after bills, my pockets be hurt
I be low, when I can't take a girl out
I be low, cause they can't even figure me out
But I be high, when the? phoney? chicks some me love
Caus in my mind I read them, but I don't give a fuck
I be high, when a n*ggar get attention
I be high, when your girl catch feelings
Then I be low, when I go into that empty space
I be low, when I'm looking at a stressed face
I be low, because my brother facing hard time
And I be low, cause my n*ggar lying close behind
Then I'm high, when I know the places we can go
I be high, when I think what the future holds
I be high, when she asks for my room number
I be high, but a my low keeps a n*ggar humble
[Chorus:]
I be high, then I be low
I be low, then I be high
It's like a brought a knife to a gun fight
But I be cool, this the story of my life
I be high, then I be low
I be low, then I be high
It's like a brought a knife to a gun fight
No need to worry, this the story of my life
[Verse 3:]
I was high, when the label said that I was dope
I was high, in my eyes cause I had hope
I was high, when first had the taste of love
I was high, when I left the city I was from
And I was low, when I had a recent heart break
I was low, cause I truly though I had it made
I was low, when I lost her over silliness
I was low, cause she twisted what my words meant
But I was high, when I finally had the chance to see
Everything that's pretty ain't' always good for me
I was high, when she first said I like you
Man, I must be too high to even write dude
And these things show you growth
Some niggas show you a little but I show you the most
Highs and lows, and succeed for sho
The only thing left to do is to say a toast, cause...
[Chorus:]
I be high, then I be low
I be low, then I be high
It's like a brought a knife to a gun fight
But I be cool, this the story of my life
I be high, then I be low
I be low, then I be high
It's like a brought a knife to a gun fight
No need to worry, this the story of my life
Now won't you please say scotty lord,
Help me please, yeah, help me please
Now won't you please say scotty lord,
Won't you please, god, help me please
