You Don't Get Me High
I started out rhymin' in '99
I got bars that can go to bars
I traveled this road 'bout a million times
I carved a mic in my code of arms
Reminds me of nugs, like when I
First had a buzz, startin' out
That's how it was
Now I'm a actor, a gymnast
I bend over backwards
You'll capture whatever it was
Crumble paper, condemnation, that sensation
Conversation
Convoluted, concentration, I go dumb
Tryna reinvent it, recreate it, recreation
Occupation
Repetition turn to friction, I go numb
Since I had Billabong
Tryin' to PacSuns at the venue
Out in Boston, no the thrill ain't gone
It's just not here as often but no cap
Sold up to one hundred cap and
Nothin' could feel good as that
Or whеn I first heard my song on (943 WCYY)
Spittin' this puddle
Starin' up at my high water mark
Fеlt like I graduated
First sold out a college bar
But this esoteric as 7L
I don't know how to say it well
Look, I can't leave you, I never will
You gave me that feelin', oh
But you don't get me high
You don't get me high
You don't get me high, oh, no (P dank)
It was never the money
Must've played me like a hunnid
Shows for no dough
And made like a thousand songs that I
Never finish and no one knows
But I got a couple that some do
Little thirty minute set I could run through
Had a little run, made dumb moves, yeah
But it kept me humble
Man, these nights that I was out late
Wasn't comin' home i was loopin'
Tyin' knots out the ropes that I wasn't shown
I wasn't in the trap sellin' drugs
Where they buggin' phones
I was sneakin' into clubs to crush
It 'cause I wasn't grown (I was 13)
Man, you gotta know that feelin'
Blind peelin' when the sun up to most
You're only appealin' once you come up
I couldn't share a phrase that could sum up
Years later when they come up
And you hit 'em with the, "Um
Who the fuck are you again?"
Put all this work in
Is it worth it? Should I
Buy ads and be networkin'?
I'm not certain 'cause none of these
People act the same in person
(They don't) Yet, here I am, still
Tryna chase a thrill
Look, I can't leave you and I never will
Man, you gave me that feelin', oh
But you don't get me high
You don't get me high
You don't get me high, oh, no
