High Forever

I meditate, do my breathwork, and microdose

I got this talent for making everybody close, feel like they're not close

Genetic dispositions tryna pull me into bad habits

I turned my suffering into money, and that's a black magic

You know, life is relentless, it's got ladders and shoots

Look at my long, long branches, my short, little roots

I was listening to the album before the last album

The one everybody knows

It was full of songs like this

I guess I haven't really grown

You can't stay high forever

You can't stay high forever

When you hold too tight onto your own life, it'll eat you up alive

You can't stay high forever

I was reading Camus yesterday at my Michigan place

My father's features are all over my face

And when I go through my personal history

I see victory mixed with liberty, mixed with misery, mixed with mystery, mixed with what my parents did to me (Woo)

Maybe there's more trauma to unpack

You don't see me the way I see myself

And that's what hurts so bad

Tomorrow is a concept

Nostalgia is a dead-end road

I'm haunted by the ghost of my 20s

He's with me wherever I go

You can't stay high forever

You can't stay high forever

When you hold too tight onto your own life, it'll eat you up alive

You can't stay high forever
