lyrics

I just know I'm on a high
Maybe I can touch the sky
Baby you're giving me life
I just want to ride
Ride

Been at this for more time than you've been alive
The only crime I've committed is paying dudes no mind
Yet almost cry at a niggas untimely demise
And dem eyes of racists in total delight
Each soul sacred to be awarded life
Four hundred trillion odds of birth we here tonight
One in a million sperm met that one egg
So you had a leg up
Thank god for opened legs
Hey
Hey hey hey hey
Women in the building
Hips for rearing children
Lips speakin' resilience
Call for Easter Sunday
Resurrect some chivalry
Change is coming someday
Open doors for women please
Create a Black culture that is life yielding
Cuz what we let into our life now is life stealing
Things went left
Lets get back on that right feeling
Don't fight healing

I just know I'm on a high
Maybe I can touch the sky
Baby you're giving me life
I just want to ride
Ride

In the age of the last days
People are lovers of self
And lovers of pay
Abusive, disobedient to their mom and pops
Or pops and pops
Or baby mommas
Or moms and moms
Or what not
Not
Whatever's whatever in Babylon
What house can stand y'all without a foundation to stand on
But lovers and dreamers are steadily scheming
For ways to stop the decay
From the present day demons
Uh
I'm a lover not a fighter in rap
But I do fight for love
now u decipher that
Maybe the last of the Mohicans
Ya know I'm from Wisconsin
I Snatched up a Pocahontas
And left all the nonsense
Yeah
We gotta do our thang
Four hundred years of oppression and disdain
I'm bout to see other planes

I just know I'm on a high
Maybe I can touch the sky
Baby you're giving me life
I want to stay high
And I wanna
Ride
I wanna ride
I wanna ride
I wanna ride
I just want to ride
Ride

Many trails of tears forced from homes and names
Rap is now my voice
I rarely call it the rap game
Cuz it's not one
And we can't take privilege for granted
We ain't got none
So since Clinton carried a Bop Gun
My drive is like we gone be discontinued like Datsuns
Whenever you play AD
You play a hot one
You've been fishing baby
You got one hot fun
Yeah we not done

I just know I'm on a high
Uh I'm on a high
Maybe I can touch the sky
Baby you're giving me life
giving me life
I want to stay high
And I wanna ride
I wanna ride
I wanna ride
I wanna ride
I just want to ride
Ride
