Kid Cudi - Highs N Lows Lyrics






I be high when I split a dutch and fill it up
I be high when I get my money doubled up
I be high when a model wanna let me cut
I be high when I'm shinin' cause my diamonds blush

I be low when a nigga can't get away
I be low when I can't seem to make a way
I be low when I can't even feed myself
I be low when I realize I'm by myself

But I be high when I'm shopping for expensive clothes
I be high when I get what I couldn't before
I be high in the club while I'm poppin bub
I be high when I'm cruisin, sittin' on them dubs

But I be low at the shows in my dressing room
I be low when I see that I'm a different dude
I be low on the plane looking at the sky
I be low but my highs keep a nigga tight

I be high, then I be low
I be low, then I be high
It's like a battle knife to a gun fight
But I be cool, this the story of my life
I be high, then I be low
I be low, then I be high
It's like a battle knife to a gun fight
No need to worry, this the story of my life

I be low when I gotta get ready for work
I be low cause after bills my pockets be hurt
I be low when I can't take a girl out
I be low cause they can't even figure me out

But I be high when the phony chicks show me love
Cause in my mind I read em' but don't give a fuck
I be high when a nigga get attention
I be high when ya girl catch feelings

Then I be low when I go into the empty space
I be low when I'm lookin' at a stressed face
I be low cause my brother face through hard time
I be low with my nigga ridin close behind

Then I'm high when I know the places we can go
I be high when I think of what the future hold
I be high when she ask for my room number
I be high but my lows keep a nigga humble

I be high, then I be low
I be low, then I be high
It's like a battle knife to a gun fight
But I be cool, this the story of my life
I be high, then I be low
I be low, then I be high
It's like a battle knife to a gun fight
No need to worry, this the story of my life

I was high when the label said that I was dope
I was high in my eyes cause I had hope
I was high When I first had the taste of love
I was high when I left the city I was from

And I was low when I had a recent heartbreak
I was low cause I truly thought I had a mate
I was low when I lost her over silliness
I was low cause she twisted what my words meant

But I was high when I finally had the chance to see
Everything that's pretty ain't always good for me
I was high when she first said I like you
Man I must be too high to even write, dude
And these things show you growth
Some niggas show a little
But I'll show you the most

Highs and lows and succeed for sho
The only thing left to do is say a toast
Cause...

I be high, then I be low
I be low, then I be high
It's like a battle knife to a gun fight
But I be cool, this the story of my life
I be high, then I be low
I be low, then I be high
It's like a battle knife to a gun fight
No need to worry, this the story of my life

Now won't you please save Scotty, Lord?
Help me, please
Help me, please

Now won't you please save Scotty, Lord?
Won't you please save Scotty?
Help me, please

    I was low cause she twisted what my words meant
    But I was high when I finally had the chance to see
    Everything that's pretty ain't always good for me”

Otherwise, with a minimum of intelligence, you would notice that his songs are deeper than what you think. People shouldn't be categorized for the sole perpose of smoking, hell people have been smoking since BC and was encouraged under napoleon. So grow up...
