Letra
[Intro]
Mmm-hmm (We The Best Music)
Yeah, hey, hey
Oh, oh, oh (DJ Khaled)
[Chorus]
Ya keep takin' me higher and higher, yeah
Ah-don't you know that the Devil is a liar
I know they'd rather see me down, put my soul in the fire
But we keep going higher, higher
[Verse 1]
Uh, look
My granny 88, she had my uncle and then
A miscarriage back-to-back every year for like ten
Pregnant with my moms, doctor told her it was slim
Despair rose for nine months but gave birth in the end
Pops turned 60, he proud what we done
In one generation, he came from Africa young
Said he met my moms at the Century Club
Los Angeles love, kinda like Hussle and Boog
Emani turned 10, Kross turned 2
Startin' to see this life shit from a bird's view
We the ones that made millions off the curb, fool
In this rap shit ten, never made nerd moves
[Chorus]
Hey-ah, hey-ah (Whoa)
Ya keep takin' me higher and higher (Hussle)
Yeah (Khaled)
Ah-don't you know that the Devil is a liar (Ay)
I know (Right back)
They'd rather see me down, put my soul in the fire
But we keep going higher (Whoa, whoa)
Higher (Nip, talk to 'em)
[Verse 2]
Emptied out the clip, it was broad day
Fuck **** always gotta learn the hard way?
We gon' tape it off if we ball play
Put a half a moon crescent on your boy fade
Police hit the lights, that's a car chase
Lookin' back at my life made my heart race
Dance with the devil and test all faith
I was thinkin' chess moves, but it was God's grace
Crooked ass whoever till we all straight
With no shame I peeped game and it's all fate
South Central state of mind, high crime rate
Homicide, hate, gang banging'll get you all day (Yeah-eah yeah)
But look at my faith (Ya keep takin' me higher and higher)
I told Khaled bounce the funk till the bar break (Yeah)
Ah-don't you know that the Devil is a liar
I know they'd rather see me down, put my soul in the fire
But we keep going higher, higher
[Outro]
Higher, oh Lord
Can you feel it
My shoes is scrapin' the sky
I'm so high
We keep goin' higher
