Oh, you keep taking me higher and higher (yeah)
But don't you know that the devil is a liar? (yeah, I know)
They'd rather see me down with my soul in the fire
But we keep goin' higher, higher
Look, look
My granny 88 she had my uncle and them
A miscarriage back to back every year for like ten
Pregnant with my moms, doctor told her it was slim
It was bedroom for nine months but gave birth in the end
Pops turned 60, he'd be proud what we done
In one generation, he came from Africa young
He said he met my moms at the Century Club
Los Angeles, love kinda of like Hussle and Boog
Mani turned ten, Kross turned two
Starting to see these life shit from a birds view
We the ones that made millions off the curb, fool
And this rap shit ten, never make nerd moves
Oh, you keep taking me higher and higher (yeah)
But don't you know that the devil is a liar? (yeah, I know)
They'd rather see me down with my soul in the fire
But we keep goin' higher, higher
Empty out the clip, it was broad day
Fuck niggas always gotta learn the hard way
We gon' tape it off if we ball play
With half of 'em on crescent with ya bald fade
Police hit the lights, that's a car chase
Looking back at my life made my heart race
Danced with the devil and that was all faith
I was thinking chess moves but it was God's grace
Crooked ass whoever 'til we all straight
With no shame, I peeped game and it's all fate
South Central state of mind, high crime rate
Homicide hate, gang banging'll get you all day (yeah)
And look at my fate
Oh, you keep taking me higher and higher (yeah)
(Told Khaled bounce the four 'til the bar break)
But don't you know that the devil is a liar? (yeah, I know)
They'd rather see me down with my soul in the fire
But we keep goin' higher, higher
Higher
Oh, Lord
Can you feel it?
Must use His grace in the sky
I'm so high
We keep going higher
