Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I’m so high you're so low
I been right you been wrong
You're so jaded I’m so gone
You don’t know what you missing on
You don’t know what you missing on
You don’t know what you missing on

You don’t really know what I’m on right now
Got ten bitches on my phone right now
Swear they won’t leave me alone right now
Cause they know that I’m boutta bring it home right now
Bring it home just like LeBron yeah
When you round here better watch your tone
I was down bad and you left me alone
When my shit pop don’t call my phone
Since 2013 I been following the dream shit was all good but you had to intervene
961 there was never no scene
Words can’t explain all the things that I seen
So I packed my bags left all the cards I was dealt
Still feel guilty for the ones I couldn’t help
Seen your momma cry you would know what I felt
I don’t got no love to give

I’m so high you're so low
I been right you been wrong
You're so jaded I’m so gone
You don’t know what you missing on
You don’t know what you missing on
You don’t know what you missing on

Diamond hearts up on my chain
It don’t feel like the real thing
No one ever gave a shit
I guess ignorance is bliss
Yeah I got a list everybody switched
No I won’t stop till the whole crew rich
Old friends switched guess the didn’t get the gist
Got it for myself and I got the assist
Racks on the wrist I know it don’t mean nothing
A boss like me turn nothing into something
Like it’s PE man I got these hoes running
If you know me baby girl you are stuntin
I think that I live myself way too much to give a fuck
Things were looking down nowadays it’s looking up

I’m so high you're so low
I been right you been wrong
You're so jaded I’m so gone
You don’t know what you missing on




You don’t know what you missing on
You don’t know what you missing on
