Just Because
Mosey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just because you’re high
just because you’re high
doesnt mean you fly
Just because you’re high doesn’t mean you’re right

yeah I know, yeah I know, yeah i know, yeah I know,
we’re floating on the same plane
got a vibe, got a vibe, got a vibe, got a vibe,
and I ain’t tryna take it away
but you got all these onlookers
and a little bit of sugar just about to hit your brain
and you’re barely even clever when you’re fully put-together
so now what are you gonna say?

and I know how you get
when it goes to your head
but i’m sorry to say
how you sound in your head
aint the way you project
you’re a corny as fuck cliche

i wish you’d never changed
i’m way more entertained by
your heart, your heart, your heart

Just because you’re high
doesn’t mean you’re right
just because you’re high
doesnt mean you fly
Just because you’re high
doesn’t mean you’re right
just because you’re high
doesn’t mean you fly

i know you what you’re like on the low
and sometimes that’s just what I’m missing
and maybe we can just be friends
and keep it arms length but yeah I dunno
i can feel that you and me could take another way
and the lines you cut cuz all they do is separate
you do you
but don’t make it up
cuz I seen the truth.
got me time and time again
I found my home
when I rolled with you
when you light up the room
keep a little for yourself

Just because you’re high
doesn’t mean you’re right
just because you’re high
doesn’t mean you fly
Just because you’re high
doesn’t mean you’re right




just because you’re high
doesn’t mean you fly

Overall Meaning

Mosey's song "Just Because" explores the theme of drug use, specifically marijuana, and the consequences it can have on one's behavior and relationships. The chorus repeats the phrase "Just because you're high doesn't mean you're right/ doesn't mean you fly," emphasizing that drug use does not make one infallible or invincible.


The first verse describes a situation in which the singer and their companion are both "floating on the same plane," but the singer is hesitant to let their friend's drug use take over the moment. The friend is described as unimpressive when high, and the singer seems to long for the version of their friend that exists when they are not using drugs. The line "you’re a corny as fuck cliche" is particularly cutting, suggesting that the friend's behavior when high is unoriginal and boring.


In the second verse, the singer acknowledges that they are familiar with their friend's behavior when sober and miss that version of them. They suggest they could possibly still try to pursue a connection, but only if the friend stops using drugs as a coping mechanism. The final lines of the song, "keep a little for yourself," suggest that the friend should not depend on drugs to provide them with a personality or sense of self.


Overall, "Just Because" provides an honest and nuanced perspective on drug use and the impact it can have on relationships. It encourages listeners to consider their own relationship with substance use and the way it affects their behavior and interactions with others.
