Livin' in the big city
The American dream is far from me and the streets of gritty
Everywhere I turn, I'm on a mission for more
But I ain't sellin' my soul with the dope, that's no bull
I'm on a one way rise to the top
I'm hittin' the strip but got a sound that will rattle your block
I'm in the fast lane and I won't stop, you ain't nothin' but talk
You couldn't hang on the rope I walk
This life that I live, it ain't for the weak
I'm a rowdy-ass gangster that came off the street
I'm tryin' to keep the pace but I gotta keep my peace
Got these punk-ass police, want me RIP
And I'm searchin' for the higher ground
I want my head in the sky, so high that I can't come down
Legalized in every town across the nation
'Cause you can never stop the blaze
Gotta rise up to the top
(To the top)
Can't stop
(How high can you get?)
Gotta rise up to the top
(To the top)
Can't stop
(How high can you get?)
'Cause what goes up must come down
So we gotta rise up to the higher ground
Rise up
(Rise up)
Rise up
(Rise up)
Rise up
(Rise up)
How high can you get?
Cruisin' in the drop Chevy, got my foot on the floor
I'm hittin' switches and my frame is heavy
You wanna look inside and see who's flossin' the ride
Curiosity is killin' you and stingin' your pride
I get high when we're flippin' the set
Now we're flippin' the script and all you haters couldn't hold my dick
Don't need a clip for my nondescript
You should leave it alone and check your toe 'cause my nine will spit
This right here's as high as it gets
(No shit)
Somebody like to split
The Hill kept it real since we stepped on the set
So just goin' for a stroll you gotta cut the check
Got my Glock on deck and my custom vest reeks
You can't fuck with me, I'm the best
And you can keep the dress 'cause I'm smoke nothin' less
Than the kush, step back I'm tired of gettin' pushed
Gotta rise up to the top
(To the top)
Can't stop
(How high can you get?)
Gotta rise up to the top
(To the top)
Can't stop
(How high can you get?)
'Cause what goes up must come down
So we gotta rise up to the higher ground
Rise up
(Rise up)
Rise up
(Rise up)
Rise up
(Rise up)
How high can you get?
I go psycho, crazy Michael Myers
And set the stage on fire, go higher
'Cause when our name's on a flyer, there's so much smoke
It makes the whole city rise up
Devise a plan to get the whole world lifted
Walk back, tryin' to take the land with a mission
There's no way you can stand in this position
You can't take the heat, get the fuck up out the kitchen
Born with the will to hustle, see we hittin' the road
You'll never stop it, you ain't got the muscle
We're on a world tour, homeboy, this is for sure
We gotta cure blow the stage up, we out the door
Sometimes we all need an escape so when we fall off track
You get your mind right and make your stack
I made a pact with my crew on the Hill, we'll continue to build
For all the people who all need their fill
Gotta rise up to the top
(To the top)
Can't stop
(How high can you get?)
Gotta rise up to the top
(To the top)
Can't stop
(How high can you get?)
'Cause what goes up must come down
So we gotta rise up to the higher ground
Rise up
(Rise up)
Rise up
(Rise up)
Rise up
(Rise up)
How high can you get?
