Songtexte High Lately - Ted The Poet

I've been low, but I've been on a high lately
I don't wanna die lately
I just wanna fly
I don't know if it's gon' last this time
Maybe I won't have to climb daily
No more last goodbyes
I've been low, but I've been on a high lately
I don't wanna die lately
I just wanna fly
I don't know if it's gon' last this time
Maybe I won't have to climb daily
No more last goodbyes

I done did a lot of living
Eyes open, but my mind is not in attendance
Flashback, but I'll be back in a flash
Thoughts racing like a mile a minute
Maintained me a beautiful soul
See a mirror, now I'm smiling in it
Storyteller, only few have been told
I'm just glad I ain't die in the beginning
Barely getting by
Mind is on the brink, and I just try to keep the scary shit inside
How nice it was this week surprised me
'Cause I think how rare this is to find
Eyes are sunken deep like I need fucking sleep
But that's the wear of time
Actually, nevermind
I think that might be the liquor
Fuck double shots, I think I need an IV of liquor
To siphon inside of me quicker
The irony might be the liver
'Cause I think it's likely the killer
Like I'm on one side of a one-sided mirror
The lineup is liver, gun violence, then right in the middle is suicide
Then it's drunk driving, then fentanyl
I thought was a Vicodin pill
Least, that's how I tend to feel
But today was a good day
Feel great, and I look great
Didn't say things I could say
If I felt pain, didn't put pain
In the hearts of the people I love
It's a start, that's not easily done
Shit been hard, but at least it's been fun

I've been low, but I've been on a high lately
I don't wanna die lately
I just wanna fly
I don't know if it's gon' last this time
Maybe I won't have to climb daily
No more last goodbyes
I've been low, but I've been on a high lately
I don't wanna die lately
I just wanna fly
I don't know if it's gon' last this time
Maybe I won't have to climb daily
No more last goodbyes

I done did a lot of living
Eyes open, but my mind is not in attendance
Flashback, but I'll be back in a flash
Thoughts racing like a mile a minute
Harmful, dark soul
Look at myself like you lost your marbles
But I just keep going
The dailies and nightlies
They say that I'm crazy, well maybe I might be
But everyone's crazy, the way this damn life be
Like one day they hate me, the next day they like me
This life can get heavy, I'm taking it lightly
I'm pouring them heavy, the J's, I be lighting
I'm more or less ready for days where my highs will be higher than ever
That'll be something I fight to the death for

I've been low, but I've been on a high lately
I don't wanna die lately
I just wanna fly
I don't know if it's gon' last this time
Maybe I won't have to climb daily
No more last goodbyes
I've been low, but I've been on a high lately
I don't wanna die lately
I just wanna fly
I don't know if it's gon' last this time
Maybe I won't have to climb daily
No more last goodbyes
