High
Nathan Smart Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's late yet sometimes I go there
Mistake myself getting nowhere
Thinking bout you still you don't care
Why do I go there?

You go your own way it's like your fighting me
I gave it up for you, and now it's UFC
You're an impeccable devil, come on enlighten me
I'm in a big dark room and your my light to see
Try to convey this in definitive syllables
Love triangle, Illuminati ritual
I ain't a kid now, cut my umbilical
You say it's over like we hit a pinnacle
Settle down, big house, we can take it slow
But you kick me out, with no place to go
All alone eyes red, did I stoop below
The high bar you set, because I'd like to know
Tryna be the best and you were calling me the worst
Tough luck, you done slit me and now I hurt
You took apart of me and now I stay on high alert
You were the best, now what is it worth?





Now you're gone, far from here
