High Life
High Primo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now that I've gotten what I wanted everything's changed
And now I'm living the
High life, high life
I never looked back once I left my hometown
High life, high life
I left behind everybody I know
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
And everybody sings along like
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
Be careful when you're wishing for the high life
They say you have to come clean with your past to move on
All of my dreams have come true but something still feels wrong
But I'm still living the
High life, high life
I never looked back once I left my hometown
High life, high life
Said goodbye to everybody I know
And now I'm singing like
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
And everybody sings along like
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
Be careful when you're wishing for the high life
Everybody's dreaming of the high life
It may look good from the outside
But all I really wanted was a good life
With a memory reel of all the highlights
All I want is to sleep good at night
Look myself in the mirror knowing that I live right
So when I'm six feet in the ground
I'll be singing like
A million dollars in palm
Not a worry in the world, that's everything I want
I'm wishing I was there I feel like it's where I belong
I wanna be able to go pay all the bills for my mom
And make her smile
Pick up my family and take em out
On me
And my over capacitated bank account
Money is all I think about
Of my life it's a highlight
Tired of being low I'm ready for the high life
Look at me now
Look at how I get down
Stubs and Wooten on my feet
I'm the flyest youngin in town
But I'm loosin it
My vision has just become an illusion
And Now my highlife is low again
Struggling to hold it in I was on a mission
And messed everything up making all the wrong decisions
I know it's not the end Well then again it might be
And it's sucks god forbid you ever end up like me
And now I'm singing like
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
And everybody sings along like
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
Be careful when you're wishing for the high life
Be careful when you're wishing for the high life
Be careful when you're wishing for the high life
Be careful when you're wishing for the high life
In "High Life," High Primo reflects on his journey from his hometown to achieving his dreams of wealth and fame. He acknowledges that he feels like something is still missing, even though he has everything he thought he wanted. He also warns about the dangers of wishing for the high life and the importance of coming to terms with one's past to move forward.
The opening lines, "They say I was always destined for fortune and fame, Now that I've gotten what I wanted everything's changed," set the tone for the song. High Primo is admitting that his desires have come to fruition and that he is living the high life, but he's not fully satisfied. The following lines, "I never looked back once I left my hometown, Said goodbye to everybody I know," underline his sacrifice in achieving his ambitions.
The chorus, with its repetitive "La la la" and upbeat rhythm, contrasts with the lyrics' message, as High Primo warns listeners to be careful what they wish for. He acknowledges that living the high life may look appealing from the outside, but in reality, it may not fulfill one's desires. His desire for a good life rather than just a high life and the emphasis on money being all he thinks about convey the song's message of seeking fulfillment beyond material possessions.
