Celebration
David & The High Spirit Lyrics

Excuse me for the absence
I apologize for being absent or not present

I'm sorry teach', but the class ain't the passion
I apologize, teacher, but the class isn't where my true passion lies

I gotta follow talents, but I'm feeling rather stagnant
I have to pursue my talents, but I'm currently feeling stuck or unproductive

I called the audible on Madden, I faked the handoff I'm passin'
I made a spontaneous decision or change of plans like in the game Madden football, tricking the opponent and passing the ball

Off to Porter, now he's spazzin'
Now I've passed the ball to Porter, and he's going wild or showing extreme excitement

He turned the jets on he's blastin' (Off)
He activated his speed or energy and is now taking off or excelling

Shine bright, we gon' do this shit for life
We will continue to excel and succeed for a lifetime

We on Award Tour, yo R.I.P. to Phife
We are on a journey of achievements and success, paying respects to the late Phife Dawg from A Tribe Called Quest

Check the rhyme, we're some midnight marauders
Listen to our lyrics and flow, we are like sneaky or mischievous individuals who come alive at midnight

Deep mind, I'm like a scholar or an author
I have a profound or insightful mind, similar to that of a scholar or writer

Young Barack, when he was studying at Harvard
I feel like a young Barack Obama during his time studying at Harvard University

Jesus Christ, you'd think he's walking on water
An expression of amazement or awe, as if someone is performing miracles or defying odds

Feel like Wayne, when he was on the second Carter
I feel like Lil Wayne during the release of his second album called 'Tha Carter'

Feel like Jay, when he was back in the projects
I feel like Jay-Z when he was living in the housing projects or low-income areas

Man I did it for the longest, I was up in my room tryna harness
I have been working towards my goals for a long time, spending hours in my room trying to perfect my skills

All these motherfuckin' thoughts on my conscience
I have a lot of thoughts or worries burdening my conscience or mind

Take the leap, or just stay anonymous
Decide whether to take a risk and pursue my dreams or stay hidden and unknown

Leave it on the field, should I do this music
Give my all, leaving everything on the table, questioning whether pursuing music is the right path

Should I let my doubts dictate my future
Questioning whether I should allow my uncertainties and insecurities determine my destiny

I got some talent, I'll fuckin use it
I possess talent, and I am determined to utilize it to the fullest extent

I swear to God, I'll fuckin prove it
I promise to show and provide evidence, proving my abilities and potential

Love David 'cause he challenge me
I appreciate David because he pushes or motivates me to improve and overcome challenges

And you rappers don't, they will have my quotes
Unlike other rappers, I will have memorable or noteworthy lines or lyrics

Enshrined in the motherfuckin' history books
They will be permanently recorded and remembered in the history books or archives

I'ma do this shit till I'm fuckin old
I will continue pursuing my passion or career in music until I am old and aged

Drinkin' whiskey up on the porch
Enjoying the moment while sipping whiskey on the porch, a symbol of relaxation or contentment

Tell my kids all these anecdotes
In the future, I will share stories or interesting tales with my children

How we changed the game and we made it, bro
I will recount how we revolutionized or significantly impacted the music industry and achieved success, my friend

But till then, I'm in the studio
Until that future point, I will be spending my time in the recording studio

Men lie, women lie, numbers don't, check the streams
People may not always tell the truth, but the statistics or streaming numbers don't lie, so check them for validation

We took the leap and we chased the dream
We took a risk and pursued our dreams with determination

Pour a glass, Happy New Year's Eve
Celebrate and raise a glass in honor of New Year's Eve

Manifesting our aspirations, make a statement, no hesitation
We are actively bringing our goals or dreams into reality, expressing ourselves boldly and confidently without any doubt or delay

What a wonderful situation, roll one up, it's a celebration
This is an amazing or joyous situation, so let's roll a joint and celebrate

2021, here we come
We are ready and excited to embrace the year 2021

Two records out, we've only just begun
We have already released two albums, but we are just getting started

Turn it all up, can you hear me mama
Crank up the volume, can you hear me, mom?

Creating everything all in your honor
We are producing everything in tribute or dedication to you, mom

Gotta man up gotta take care of father
I need to step up and fulfill my responsibilities as a father figure

We only getting older so I gotta go harder
As time goes by and we age, I need to work even harder and put in more effort

Put the weed down, stop being so selfish
I should stop consuming or relying on marijuana, and stop being self-centered or focused only on my own desires

Man the fuck up, stop being so helpless
I need to be more courageous or assertive, and stop feeling or acting powerless

Enough with the self-deprecation
I need to stop putting myself down or criticizing myself

December 31st a true celebration
December 31st is a genuine cause for celebration

I'm ready for a permanent vacation
I'm prepared for an extended or permanent break or relaxation

I'm ready for my songs on the radio station
I'm prepared for my songs to be played on the radio

But I don't wanna be all by myself
However, I don't want to be alone or isolated

Wanna ring it in with her and nobody else
I want to celebrate and welcome the new year with a specific person and no one else

When I heard this beat, knew I had to go nutty
When I heard this instrumental, I knew I had to go crazy or give an exceptional performance

Man on the Moon and I think I'm Kid CuDi
I feel like I'm channeling Kid CuDi, specifically his 'Man on the Moon' era, in terms of creativity or style

And I feel like I need some tequila shots
I have a desire or craving for tequila shots

So grab the salt, I'll grab the lime
Get the salt ready for the tequila shots, I'll get the lime

We gon' have ourselves a motherfuckin' great time
We are going to have an extremely enjoyable or fantastic time

Got a whole lot of pride you ain't taking mine
I possess a strong sense of pride, and no one can take that away from me

Only so much time you ain't wasting mine
I have limited time, so I won't allow you to waste it

And me and David we stay aligned
David and I maintain a strong connection or harmony

Calculated, every time we maneuver
We are strategic and deliberate in every action or decision we make

Forward progress, cuz we looking to the future
We consistently strive for progress and growth, as we focus on the future

Life's too short to be dwellin' on the past
Life is too brief to constantly dwell or worry about the past

No silver bullet you just gotta make it last
There is no magical solution or quick fix, you simply need to make the most of it and make it endure

Live it to the fullest cuz that shit gon' pass
Live life to the fullest because time will inevitably pass by

Try to spend time with the people that you cherish
Make an effort to allocate time for the individuals you hold dear

Can't worry bout all the people that are jealous
Don't concern yourself with the people who are envious or resentful

When it's all said and done, this moment you will relish
When everything is finished or completed, you will thoroughly enjoy or savor this moment
