Letra de Head High - Joey Bada$$

Yeah

(Statik Selektah)

Time waits for no man, life is but a two-step, slow jam

Dancin' with the devil, tryin' not to lose my balance

But God blessed the kid with many talents, he was chosen

It's why you see him livin' in the moment

Every second, gotta own it

'Cause you never know when could be your last

Time breathin', now you bleedin' from the gun blast

Then you thinkin' 'bout the past, see your whole life in a flash

Best friends lowerin' your casket, now your son a bastard

Pressure on his shoulders make him gotta grow faster

Where I'm from, the stories never end with no happily ever afters (Uh)

Just broken families forced to start new chapters

A natural disaster, the cycle in a loop

And we caught up in a rapture

Not to mention all the other factors

Government agendas against rappers

They wanna see us either dead or captured

So I hold my head high 'til they put me below

Best know 'til the day I die I'ma keep my heat close

This is for my niggas who took a day to relax

Huggin' the block but the block ain't hug 'em back

So we hold our head high 'til they put us below

Best know 'til the day we die we gon' keep this heat close

This is for my niggas who took a day to relax

Huggin' the block but the block ain't hug us back

Took a trip to Miami that March (Uh)

Couple weeks right before my daughter got born (Uh)

To meet up with this kid by the name of X

Had to go to him 'cause he was on house arrest, nonetheless

Our first time meetin', we was always on the FaceTime

He offered me his place to stay, "Thank you, but I decline"

First impression in my mind, "Now that's a stand-up nigga

Someone I could call a friend of mine and that's tough, nigga"

Shit, I could talk about any type of stuff with him

Never gave a fuck about who didn't fuck with him

See, that's my nigga, I had to keep it a buck with him

When he played me his album, I told him what he was missin'

A lot of niggas woulda took that shit different, woulda thought that I was dissin'

Instead, we found this beat and started riffin'

Shit had me reminiscin', had me thinkin' 'bout Steelo

Now that I can see his vision

So I hold my head high 'til they put me below

Best know 'til the day I die I'ma keep my heat close

This is for my niggas who took a day to relax

Huggin' the block but the block ain't hug 'em back

So we hold our head high 'til they put us below

Best know 'til the day we die we gon' keep this heat close

This is for my niggas who took a day to relax

Huggin' the block but the block ain't hug us back
