High Note

Mentally. A Rap.

on a high note

looking so micro

say she don't swallow

so i got stuck in her throat

i'm just tryna stay afloat

have you read what i wrote

swear i'm doing the most

this is not a joke

it's gunna hit like a lightning bolt

i've come from the bottom

so i don't wanna gloat

i mean not tryna boast

but if my rhymes too cold

than wear a coat

i got no cloak

because i don't hide

i got my pride

right by my side

check my line

i swear i'm high

tryna touch the sky

touch the sun so i can shine

just to get by

y'all do it for the vine

i do it to live my life

just doing what i love

tryna get above

yeah, life's rough

but i got who i trust

don't need that much

y'all stay sleep

i'm lion around y'all sheep

like a frog i leap

from the bottom i come

on the edge it's steep

try to drown me but i'm into deep

y'all tricks are kinda cheap

than shit don't phase me

i'm high,

i'm floating,

i'm soaring

don't fuck with the vision

unless you wanna meet the floor

and i swore

from the first day on

i'd do it for my fam

i do it for the love

y'all do it for the lust

for the fame & the girls

& the drugs

all of the parties

but don't forget what got you started

i come in this wholehearted

& ill never come apart

till i'm high on my feet

that the art

that's the high note
