Get Low, Get High (Part 2) [feat. Jon Batiste & Michael Todd]

You gotta get low, so you can get high

You gotta scrub the ground if you wanna touch the sky

Singing "la-da-da-da", you need the rain before the sunshine

To get by

You gotta get down, so you can get up

All you really need is a little bit of love

So, lean your seat back, buckle up, it's a long ride

You gotta get low, so you can get high

I woke up on the floor and the sky is pouring

I'm getting tired of feeling like this every morning

I looked into the mirror and I can't ignore it

I'm feeling the weight, hey

There ain't no brushing off the world on your shoulder

I figured out that you go under to get over

So, if you're someone out there looking for some closure

Well, I gotta say

You gotta get low, so you can get high

You gotta scrub the ground if you wanna touch the sky

Singing "la-da-da-da", you need the rain before the sunshine

To get by

You gotta get down, so you can get up

All you really need is a little bit of love

So, lean your seat back, buckle up, it's a long ride

You gotta get low, so you can get high

Grandma said you got to hope

Got to see yourself in visions in designer suits

Tune it up like a TV when she watching soaps

Mama knows, mama knows not to block the flow

I'm gone

Grandma say go shine, 'cause the Lord saidit's your time (Better get along)

Singers singin' swingin' swingin' low sweet chariot

Coming for to carry us whenever we cant bury it

Now whether y'all selling hope or dealing dope

Whether hanging with the Pope or chilling with the folk

We all dealwith the highs and the lows

You gotta get low, so you can get high

You gotta scrub the ground if you wanna touch the sky

Singing "la-da-da-da", you need the rain before the sunshine

To get by

You gotta get down, so you can get up

All you really need is a little bit of love

So, lean your seat back, buckle up, it's a long ride

You gotta get low, so you can get high

Get high (Get high)

Get high (Get high)

Okay I'm talking to my fellas

Get low

And then I'm talking to my ladies, yeah

Get high

Okay I'm talking to the grown folks

Get low

The old folks, even the itty-bitty babies

He cuz

What up Mike?

Let me talk to them for a second

See the truth of the matter is

If you gonna experience the highs of this life

You gotta be okay with the lows

And if you feeling low right now

Be encouraged

They're a part of the end

I promise

You gotta get low, so you can get high

You gotta scrub the ground if you wanna touch the sky

Singing "la-da-da-da", you need the rain before the sunshine

To get by

You gotta get down, so you can get up

All you really need is a little bit of love

So, lean your seat back, buckle up, it's a long ride

You gotta get low, so you can get high
