The Higher We Go Lyrics by SevenSevenThree

Before 25

2020

[Intro: Kevin]
Imagine like, you’re at the top of a mountain
You know what? It ain’t even a mountain
It’s a hill. It’s whatever you wanna call it
But, you’re up there and it’s never really until you look down that you’re able to see how far you’ve come
You know what I mean?
[Verse 1: Kevin]
I came a long way from the kid who was skipping class; (Yes)
Showed up ‘bout two weeks later, still passed; (Ha!)
I was out here lying to women to get some ass;
Got caught, told the truth, and somehow I still smashed; (Sheesh)
But you live and you learn;
Use mistakes as ways to rehearse; (For real)
You can spend your lifе shoveling dirt;
You know? chasing a hearse;
Or you can grind on your downtimе;
Man, trust me it works;
I’m just saying it works;
I came a long way from that shorty that would hoop in the park; (Ha)
I heard gunshots, niggas running, but fuck it I walked;
Wasn’t on no cool shit, was never tryna gain respect; (No)
I just never feared death;
Always prayed my time here be well spent; (Well Spent)
Cheapskate, home grinding for every dollar and cent that’s sent my way; (Yes)
Niggas on the bus, I’m on the highway; (Whoa)
Y’all week just started, I’m on Friday;
Tryna do this shit my way, look;
[Hook: K-Reed]
I tried to be the man that they all said they wanted to see; (I tried)
And I gave everything I had ‘til a man was the only thing left of me; (Left of me)
I can’t tell no one who to be (No)
And I won’t let y’all influence me
'Cause I tried to be the man that they all said they wanted to see;
[Verse 2: K-Reed]
Look, If this the first introduction, lemme give you the pleasure;
I come up from the jungle, hustled no matter the weather; (I did)
I been keeping ahead of all of they minimal efforts; (Ha)
I’m constantly seeing diamonds when I’m put under pressure;
Ain’t no direction for the rest so they neglect a few; (Naw)
Numbers lie if it’s coming from what they telling you;
It ain’t right if it can’t break down to the decimal;
I had to, change my direction for a better view;
My domain is mastered; (Yeah)
Yo speech is keynotes to actors; (Okay)
I’m from where we turning Debo’s to caspers;
I revoke remotes that replays disasters; (Huh?)
And relay my research to relate to askers;
I see no glass ceilings, they can’t keep us from building; (Naw)
Centuries of oppression from the real life villains;
Not to mention the killings; (Uh huh)
I’m pulling cards if they dealing; (Okay)
Punch out the teeth they lying thru to let em know how I’m feeling;
[Hook: K-Reed]
I tried to be the man that they all said they wanted to see; (I tried)
And I gave everything I had til a man was the only thing left of me; (Left of me)
I can’t tell no one who to be (No)
And I won’t let y’all influence me
'Cause I tried to be the man that they all said they wanted to see;
