Highest in the Game
Eastside Ninjas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No matter what it is
Or what it ain't
Or what it can be
It’s me
here from uber fates
And karma sent me
I roll with ESN and MNE'll represent me
And 5th of Henny
I stay choking like I'm blowing smoke
That Paul sent me
Top shelf light green
And it shine like jade stone
My mindset old school
Just like a pay phone
They're telling me to hang em up
I'm off the hook and outta touch
Fuck the world a busy signal
Tell em all get off my nuts
Cause they ain't even got the numbers
To tap in
Stay lucrative from
Front to the back end
Let's cash in
Stay trying to smoke good
They calling us no goods
We only trying to catch up
with the name game
Fuck it level up
We are not the same man
Higher than the highest
In the game never changing
Stay trying to smoke good
They calling us no goods
We only trying to catch up
with the name game
Fuck it level up
We are not the same man
Higher than the highest
In the game never changing

Look around I’m feelin the pain fillin the void feel like the same
Situation that I try to avoid
Come outta pocket imma put a hole in ya the size of a big rock
It just shows you how I roll
I ain’t losin y’all no
I rather put the gun to my head an let it go
You know every word that I said is worth the gold
That’s why ya listen instead of leavin me alone
I don’t give a fuck about bread I want the dough
I’m given the sweat an I bled in the microphone
Any time I’m in the zone what
Stay trying to smoke good
They calling us no goods
We only trying to catch up

Fuck it level up
We are not the same man
Higher than the highest
In the game never changing
All the way up it’s the apex
Towering over all of you basics
Flying like a spaceship
Way past the clouds
You can tell I’m bringing hell
With the fire raining down on em
Go to town on em they don’t get down like this
Get ya face fixed verbal face lift
Ya counterfeit knock-off designer fits
Need to quit face it career a glitch in the matrix
Stay off my plane
bitches still snitching for change
hanging off nuts addicted to fame
I’m about that guap dividends that never drop
Stay the highest in the game an it’s never gonna stop
Stay trying to smoke good
They calling us no goods
We only trying to catch up
with the name game
Fuck it level up
We are not the same man
Higher than the highest
In the game never changing
Stay trying to smoke good

Fuck it level up
We are not the same man
Higher than the highest

The lyrics of Highest in the Game by Eastside Ninjas describe the turbulent and tense nature of life, regardless of what it may entail, while recognizing the power of fate and karma. The singer is affiliated with the ESN and MNE groups, and he describes his drug-induced state, consistently smoking weed and choking from inhaling the smoke. He boasts about smoking the best quality cannabis by stating it is 'top shelf light green, and it shines like Jade stone.' The singer implies that he is out of touch with the world, but they lack the numbers to 'tap in,' and he will remain lucrative from front to back end.
The chorus is repeated twice, emphasizing that they are trying to level up, 'not the same man, higher than the highest in the game, never changing. The second verse begins by highlighting the hardships and pain the singer has had to endure living in a misunderstood world. However, he sees his future as good and is determined to remain focused on winning while celebrating the milestone. The chorus repeats again, followed by another verse from a different rapper, describing himself as a destructive force not to be toyed with. He goes on to say that he doesn't care about the money or fame, only the art of perfecting his craft, and he will continue to be the highest in the game.

Shit is wild and tensions heavy
The situation is intense and unpredictable
No matter what it is
Regardless of the situation
Or what it ain't
Regardless of what it is not
Or what it can be
Regardless of what it could possibly become
It’s me
I am present in this situation
here from uber fates
I have arrived with good fortune and blessings
And karma sent me
I am here by the force of my past actions
I roll with ESN and MNE'll represent me
I am associated with Eastside Ninjas and they will support me
I'm wide open like a half a zip
I am receptive and ready to partake in activities
And 5th of Henny
I am drinking Hennessy
I stay choking like I'm blowing smoke
I am constantly smoking and coughing
That Paul sent me
I am smoking weed that was provided by someone named Paul
Top shelf light green
The highest quality weed
And it shine like jade stone
It is potent and shines bright like a valuable gemstone
My mindset old school
I have traditional values and beliefs
Just like a pay phone
Like the outdated communication technology
They're telling me to hang em up
They are suggesting that I retire or give up
I'm off the hook and outta touch
I am not reachable or easily influenced
Fuck the world a busy signal
I am not interested in communicating with anyone
Tell em all get off my nuts
Tell everyone to stop bothering me
Cause they ain't even got the numbers
They do not have the ability or resources to reach me
To tap in
To access my skills or connections
Stay lucrative from
Profitable
Front to the back end
From the beginning to the end of a project
Let's cash in
Let's reap the rewards of our hard work
Stay trying to smoke good
We are always trying to smoke the best weed
They calling us no goods
They are judging us and calling us worthless
We only trying to catch up
We are striving to keep up with the latest trends
with the name game
With the popular culture and its standards
Fuck it level up
Let's improve ourselves and reach a higher level
We are not the same man
We are unique and different from others
Higher than the highest
We are better than the best
In the game never changing
We will always remain successful and relevant

Do not underestimate me or treat me like a child
must I explain why I love to destroy
Is it necessary for me to explain my aggressive behavior?
Look around I’m feelin the pain fillin the void feel like the same
I am haunted by my past traumas and struggles
Situation that I try to avoid
I try to steer clear of similar problems
Come outta pocket imma put a hole in ya
If you provoke me, I will hurt you
the size of a big rock
A very large wound or injury
It just shows you how I roll
It indicates my handling of situations
I ain’t losin y’all no
I am not going to let you defeat me
I rather put the gun to my head an let it go
I would rather end my life than suffer defeat
You know every word that I said is worth the gold
My words are valuable and meaningful
That’s why ya listen instead of leavin me alone
That's why you pay attention to me instead of ignoring me
I don’t give a fuck about bread I want the dough
I am not interested in money, I want wealth
I’m given the sweat an I bled in the microphone
I have worked hard to create great music
Any time I’m in the zone what
Whenever I am focused and productive
All the way up it’s the apex
I have reached the pinnacle of success
Towering over all of you basics
I am superior to those who lack skill or creativity
Flying like a spaceship
I am experiencing great success and freedom
Way past the clouds
Far beyond average
You can tell I’m bringing hell
I am causing chaos and destruction in my field
With the fire raining down on em
I am overpowering my competition
Go to town on em they don’t get down like this
I am dominating my opponents in a unique way
Get ya face fixed verbal face lift
My music will shock and impress you
Ya counterfeit knock-off designer fits
You are inferior in comparison to me
Need to quit face it career a glitch in the matrix
You should give up because you do not belong in this field
Stay off my plane
Stay away from me and do not try to compete with me
bitches still snitching for change
People are still trying to bring me down even if it benefits them little
hanging off nuts addicted to fame
People are obsessed with success and will do anything to achieve it
I’m about that guap dividends that never drop
I am focused on long-term financial success
Stay the highest in the game an it’s never gonna stop
I will continue to be the best and remain successful forever
