Get High, Get By Lyrics by Kenyon Dixon (feat. D Smoke)
Where all these bills come from?
I need my money, n****
Been going down, hit the ground
I ain’t stop running, n****
I need a break, tryna wait
They say it’s coming, n****, hold on
Been too long
Still feeling I’m not where I’m supposed to be
Up in arms, running wild
And all they say is hopefully
Soon everything will turn around
Another day another dollar to make
They never listen to a thing that we say anyway
Spent all my time and money making mistakes
Now I’m behind on peace of mind, I just might run away
Life ain’t always left up to what we decide
Some days it takes a little more to survive
So we just drink and get high
That’s how we get by
So we just drink and get high
That’s how we get by
How three four times a week I breathe
And reach up into the stars elemental
I be going hard with a pencil
If money was a car it’s a rental
How before times when we would breathe on beats
And deliver heart to they mental
Stuck up in the box like a bento
Don’t really give a fuck what you into
You got to do that work, boy
Fuck the world, lift up that skirt, boy
Before you do make sure she look at you
And say please proceed, you better make it hurt, boy
Otherwise you gone sever ties with your dreams
Struggle rounds with yo demons
Slave at work and then wait for the weekend
That’s why we drink and get high
So we just drink and get high
That’s how we get by
So we just drink and get high
That’s how we get by
Need a lil’ more than a lil’ bit
Work so hard just to work harder
I ain’t got sleep in like 3, 4 days
Tryna make life easy for my daughter
So I mediate
They medicate
Do what we gotta to elevate
Anxiety high I can’t catch a break, stop
Still feeling I’m not where I’m supposed to be
Up in arms, running wild
And all they say is hopefully
Soon everything will turn around
Another day another dollar to make
They never listen to a thing that we say anyway
Spent all my time and money making mistakes
Now I’m behind on peace of mind, I just might run away
Life ain’t always left up to what we decide
Some days it takes a little more to survive
So we just drink and get high
That’s how we get by
So we just drink and get high
That’s how we get by
So we just drink and get high
That’s how we get by
