High On Life
IT’S EASY AS A 1 TO THE 2 TO THE 3
IM HIGH OFF OF LIFE
AND YOU’RE HIGH OFF OF ME
COULD IT BE
MY ENERGY
MY LIGHT, MY PEACE OF MIND, MY ZEN
YOU OFTEN TIME TRY TO FIGURE ME OUT
BUT I DON’T BEND
MY MIND IS LIFTED
MY CLOUD IS GONE
MY RAINS ARE DRIED OUT
THE SUN IS MY ****
YOU SEE MY EYES AND MY SMILE
AND YOU WONDER
WHAT GETS HER GOING
WHY BE MAD OR DEPRESSED AT A BEING
THAT’S ONLY MADE TO MAKE MISTAKES
WHY NOT BE GIFTED AND LIFTED ON LIFE
MY EYES HAVE SEEN MOST OF IT ALL
AND HONEY IM STILL EXPLORING
YOU’RE DOUBTS YOU’RE SIGHS
YOUR HUFFS AND PUFFS
YOU’RE ALL DOWN AND IN THE MIDST OF THE BLUES
AND IM HIGH OFF LIFE
LAYING IN THE GRASS
SMILING
IM ALL CLEAR
AND YOU
YOU’RE CONFUSED
DON’T YOU SEE
IVE BEEN THROUGH THINGS
IVE BEEN WHERE YOU ARE IN THE CURRENT
BUT MY HEART IS TO BIG TO BE HARD
MY LIFE LIKE THE WAVES IN A BODY OF WATER
IT’S MY CURRENT
IM NOT HERE TO TELL YOU WHAT YOU NEED TO DO
IM ONLY HUMAN
I MESS UP TOO
HOWEVER THIS ZEN THAT IM IN
MY PEACE HAS BEEN STILL
MY FROWNS HAVE BEEN CLOWNED
BY MY LAUGHTER
AND NO ONE ELSE HOLDS THE KEY TO MY HAPPINESS
I DO NOT GIVE THEM ANYLONGER THAT POWER
SO WHEN YOU SEE ME
AND IM GLOWING AND GLEAMING
AND WHEN YOU ASK ME?
WHAT WILL I SAY?
YOU SEE IT’S EASY AS 1-2-3
IM HIGH OFF OF LIFE
AND YOU’RE HIGH OFF OF ME
THEN YOU ASK AGAIN
COULD IT BE MY ENERGY
OR COULD IT BE MY POET-TEA
