So High
Slick Naim Lyrics

How could something so high?
How is it possible for something that seems so positive and uplifting to lead to such negative emotions and experiences?

Make you feel so low
Cause such a strong sense of sadness and despair.

And All the feelings inside
All the emotions that are bottled up inside.

That you can′t control
That are difficult or impossible to keep in check or manage.

Got to let them all out
Need to find a way to express or release these emotions.

Before you bout to explode
Before they become so overwhelming that they cause harm or damage.

Think you got what you want
Believing that you have achieved what you set out to accomplish.

Till you know that you don't
Realizing that what you have gained or achieved is not actually what you truly wanted or needed.

You worked hard
Put in a lot of effort and dedication.

Then you had it all
Attained success and achieved your goals.

Could have never thought
Could never have imagined beforehand that you would achieve what you did.

What you had in store
What was in your future or what your destiny held for you.

Everything you gained
All the rewards and benefits that came with your success.

Turned into a loss
Ended up being more negative than positive, leading to more harm and damage than good.

All Without a cause
Without any good reason or justification for why this happened.

Not a minute more
No longer than needed or necessary.

Passed
Elapsed or went by, without any real progress or growth taking place.

You were getting
You were experiencing and enjoying.

Quick cash
A lot of easy money and financial gain.

You was winning
Were experiencing a lot of success and positive outcomes.

Getting plenty ass
Having a lot of romantic and sexual partners.

You was moving fast
Were progressing and advancing quickly.

With the women
With female companions and partners.

Now you look at that
Reflecting on those experiences now.

Wishing to take back
Regretting or wanting to undo something you did in the past.

Every minute
Every moment or action that led you to where you are now.

But you still young
But there is still time to make positive changes and learn from past experiences.

Only living half the beginning
Only having experienced a portion of what life has to offer, with much more to come.

Hustle... rain... sleet... hail... snow
Enduring and persevering through any and all challenges and obstacles.

And I Will I stop?
Not allowing these challenges to defeat or deter me.

Hell no
Absolutely not.

Oh I Kill this shit
I excel and succeed at what I do.

Like a Denzel role, oh yea
With the same level of intensity and skill as the actor Denzel Washington.

Hustle but I don′t sell dope
I work hard and stay dedicated without resorting to illegal or unethical means to achieve success.

Wrote so much
Created and produced a lot of content and material.

That the pencil broke
Used up all my resources and energy to create this content.

Try to stop me
Attempt to hinder or prevent me from succeeding.

But you will fail though
But despite those attempts, I will still persevere and succeed.

Inhale rappers like I do smoke
Consume and surpass other rappers and artists with my talent and skill.

Blow them out real slow
Easily defeat and overcome those other rappers and artists.

That you can't control
That are unpredictable and beyond your ability to manage or handle.

I don′t think that it ran
I don't believe that it crossed his mind or thought process.

Through his cerebellum
Through the part of the brain that controls motor function and coordination.

You could try
You are free to attempt to do so.

But it ain′t much
But there isn't really much that you can do or say.

That you can tell him
That will have any real impact or significance in his actions or behavior.

Had Some real rough days
Had some really difficult and trying times.

I've been better
But despite those challenges, I'm still doing okay.

Feeling such disdain
Experiencing intense feelings of disapproval or dislike.

No not never
Absolutely not.

Why wouldn′t ya
Why wouldn't you.

Show love
Express affection and appreciation towards others.

Cause you was never around, Homes
Because you were never present or supportive when I needed you.

But I make the type of music
But my music is able to appeal to and resonate with others regardless.

That'll get you wild, Homes
That will excite and stimulate you.

This that bout to get jumped
This is the kind of music that is likely to get people hyped and energized.

For your crew come in
Before your group or gang arrives or enters the scene.

This the turn around
This is the point at which things really start to change or improve.

Make you want to do something
Makes you feel inspired or motivated to take action or make changes.

This that Chinatown
This is something that has a uniquely cultural or local flavor to it.

Pell Street Soup dumplings
Refers to a specific dish or food item that is popular in the Chinatown area of New York City.

This that Slick
This is a style or approach that is particularly smooth and polished.

New New York Kid coming
The arrival or emergence of a new, up-and-coming artist from New York City.

Go head spread the word
Go ahead and tell others about this and spread the message or idea.

How I kick them metaphors
How I use clever and creative comparisons or explanations in my lyrics.

And similes similarly to nothing that you heard
And how these comparisons are unique and different from anything you've heard before.

But still Nostalgic
But still reminiscent of older or classic eras or styles.

On some 90′s New York
In the style and spirit of music from the 1990s in New York City.

What can I say baby
Expressing oneself in a somewhat casual or playful manner.

You done go what you bargained
You got what you were expecting or hoping for.

So talk about your girl
So go ahead and talk about your romantic partner.

That's the apple of your eye
That is the most important and cherished person to you.

For two whole verses
For a significant amount of time in the song.

And a bunch of corny lines
Using cheesy or uninspired language and expressions.

Talk about the girls
Talk about romantic interests or partners.

Or the Molly that popped
Or the use of drugs like MDMA (also known as 'molly).'

Cause all that Is exactly what this is not
This song is not about those things or approaches to life.
