[00:00.574]
[00:29.977]I don’t know why I get high
[00:35.743]Maybe I’m trying to get closer to God
[00:40.289]God broken wings but I’m still fly
[00:45.422]Baby I’m tryna get closer, Closer to God
[00:50.576]All praise to the most high
[00:52.622]life’s a beach so I’m driving up the coastline
[00:54.589]thinking about the places where I spent the most time
[00:57.185]stayed fresher than button ups and bow ties
[00:59.988]cutting up in the church pews
[01:02.072]son of a preacher mayne momma sang blues
[01:04.643]church hymns paid the rent, momma paid dues
[01:06.840]my daddy bought him a caddy, my cousin just bang ru’s, whoop
[01:09.074]my older brother bang I.F.
[01:11.636]stumbled in the church and heard the biggest lie yet
[01:14.056]said if you love God, you’d give up the ganja
[01:16.218]long before kush, broke niggas would buy stress but umm
[01:19.903]you don’t condemn the lying and the greed
[01:21.850]if a shepherd drives sheep you need a license to lead
[01:24.157]I bought into the game, I wish I kept the receipt
[01:26.559]with the spirit in my corner I’ll never suffer defeat, what’s good
[01:29.699]I don’t know why I get high
[01:34.964]Maybe I’m trying to get closer to God
[01:39.644]God broken wings but I’m still fly
[01:44.760]Baby I’m tryna get closer, Closer to God
[01:49.262]What’s your addiction
[01:50.008]is it money, is it girls, is it trees?
[01:53.355]I can admit it
[01:54.541]I need God to keep working on me
[01:58.099]but what’s the difference if you choose to cruise through the hood in big body benzes on dees
[02:03.090]or you like to ball ‘til you fall
[02:04.994]but wouldn’t give a blanket to a nigga even if he gon’ freeze, please
[02:08.392]some drank, some smoke, some judge other people, some don’t
[02:13.449]we all buy from corporations that fund genocide militant supplies to the young cult
[02:17.879]but anyways, you don’t need trees to get a fade
[02:21.028]I get up like I saw police and hit the gate
[02:23.243]you don’t need pills to elevate
[02:26.526]just remember to stay strong and pray for better days…
[02:28.922]I don’t know why I get high
[02:34.327]Maybe I’m trying to get closer to God
[02:38.982]God broken wings but I’m still fly
[02:44.587]Baby I’m tryna get closer, Closer to God
[02:48.958]Feeling below the weather like I’m underneath a storm cloud
[02:51.192]I hear the rain, I’m praying that it keep pouring down
[02:53.637]lord knows we battle so many woes
[02:55.774]traveled so many miles our Nike souls are worn out
[02:58.176]I go to church to listen
[03:00.470]the music had me lifted, the sermon left me conflicted
[03:02.758]the one who holds the throne said cast the first stone only if you never sinned and you callin yourself a Christian
[03:08.621]well As-salāmu ʿ******* to my haters
[03:10.526]peace be unto you hypocritical instigators
[03:12.670]church players, pulpit niggas divinators
[03:15.686]I pray the congregation can march to a different cadence
[03:17.991]sparking a different strand with papers of different flavors
[03:20.190]smelling like an Outkast, hop on this elevator we gone
[03:23.934]and that’s some shit I speak on only ‘cause I been through it
[03:26.604]you preach but we live music, let’s go
[03:28.168]I don’t know why I get high
[03:33.150]Maybe I’m trying to get closer to God
[03:38.425]God broken wings but I’m still fly
[03:43.485]Baby I’m tryna get closer, Closer to God

I don’t know why I get high
