Lyrics

[00:05.13] Young For life
[00:06.27]
[00:07.68] Once again it's the life yessss
[00:10.78]
[00:11.47] I don't know why I get so high on
[00:15.62] It's intoxicatin man y'all don't know why you do what you do
[00:17.90]
[00:19.61] Get so high on get so high - high off the life
[00:23.12] The allure of breakin the law
[00:24.89] Is always too much for me to ever ignore
[00:27.57] I gotta thing for them big body Benzes it dulls my senses
[00:30.95]
[00:31.47] In love with a V-Dub engine
[00:33.39] Man I'm high off life **** it I'm wasted
[00:36.44] Bey Venay kicks or them Marvin Kaye wrists
[00:39.10] My women friend get tennis bracelets
[00:41.33] Trips to Venice get they winters replaced with
[00:44.21] The sun it ain't even fun no more I'm jaded
[00:47.13] Man it's just a game I just play it to play it
[00:49.77] I put my feet in the footprints left to me
[00:52.19] Without sayin a word the ghetto's got a mental celebrity
[00:54.59]
[00:55.14] Man my brother hustled so naturally
[00:57.31]
[00:57.97] Up next is me but what perplexes me
[01:00.06]
[01:00.69] Shit I know how this movie ends still I play
[01:03.66] The starrin role in Hovito's Way
[01:06.12] It's just life I solemnly swear
[01:08.39] To change my approach stop shavin coke
[01:10.37]
[01:10.98] Stay away from hoes put down the toast
[01:13.78] Cause I be doin the most oh no
[01:16.70]
[01:17.24] But every time I felt that was that it called me right back
[01:20.56]
[01:22.27] It called me right back man it called me right back oh no
[01:27.76]
[01:28.43] I'm like a Russian mobster drinkin distilled vodka
[01:31.15] Til I'm under the field with Hoffa it's real
[01:34.14] Pillow-top him like a toupee
[01:36.34] Mix the water with the soda
[01:37.99] Turn the pot up make a souflee
[01:39.79] All of y'all can get it like group-ays in your 2-way
[01:42.44] I'm livin proof that crime do pay
[01:44.70] Say hooray to the bad guy and all the broads
[01:47.68] Puttin cars in they name for the stars of the game
[01:50.51] Puttin caine in they bras and their tomorrows on the train
[01:53.30] All in the name of love
[01:55.33] Just to see that love locked in chains and the family came
[01:58.57] Over the house to take back everything that they claimed
[02:00.74]
[02:01.38] Or even the worst pain is the distress
[02:03.92] Learnin you're the mistress only after that love gets slain
[02:06.74] And the anger and the sorrow mixed up leads to mistrust
[02:09.81] Now it gets tough to ever love a-gain
[02:12.40] But the allure of the game keeps callin your name
[02:15.25] To all the iiures in the world I feel your pain
[02:18.03] To all the Christies in every cities and Tiffany Lanes
[02:20.69] We all hustlers in love with the same thang
[02:23.42] It's just life I solemnly swear
[02:26.20] To change my approach stop shavin coke
[02:28.20] Stay away fou hopes put down the puise
[02:30.31]
[02:30.84] That we do the most oh no
[02:33.72]
[02:34.37] But every time I felt that was that it called me right back
[02:37.84]
[02:39.45] It called me right back man it called me right back oh no
[02:44.71]
[02:45.38] I never felt more alive than ridin shotgun
[02:48.26] In Cline's green 5 until the cops pulled guns
[02:50.67]
[02:51.28] And I tried to smoke weed to give me the fix I need
[02:53.90] What the game did to my pulse with no results
[02:56.54] And you can treat your nose and still won't come close
[02:59.30] The game is a lightbulb with eleventy-million volts
[03:01.17]
[03:02.29] And I'm just a mark addicted to the floss
[03:04.96] And doors lift from the floor and the tops come off
[03:07.62] By any means necessary whatever the cost
[03:10.42] Even if it means lives is lost
[03:12.22]
[03:12.90] And I can't explain why I just love to get high
[03:15.92] Drink life smoke the blueberry sky blink twice
[03:18.78] I'm in the blueberry 5 you blink three times
[03:21.75] I may not even be alive
[03:24.16] I mean James Dean couldn't escape the allure
[03:26.78] Dyin young leavin a good lookin corpse
[03:29.25] Of course
[03:30.53] It's just life I solemnly swear
[03:31.86] To change my approach stop shavin coke
[03:34.49] Stay away fou hopes put down the puise
[03:37.19] That we do the most oh no
[03:39.99]
[03:40.59] But every time I felt that was that it called me right back
[03:45.66] It called me right back man it called me right back oh no
[03:50.92]
[03:54.03] Once again it's the life
[03:55.18]
[03:56.96] I said it's the life
[03:58.04]
[03:59.19] Once again it's the life oh no
[04:02.18]
[04:03.14] I don't why I why I get so high on
[04:07.66]
[04:08.33] Get so get so high on uhhuh
[04:12.14] Get so high high off the life
