"HIGHROAD" lyrics

"HIGHROAD"

Under my skin, you won't get
I said under my skin, you won't get
You talk a good game, tried to cross up my brain
Double-cross, then go on and talk shit
Well, you quick on your toes, I'll admit
I'm feeling like A.I., so watch this
I let you think that you won, I flip the script like I want
Then stepped over the spot where you tripped
You tripping my dude
Thinking that you had me figured out from the beginning
(Shows what you know these days)
Told every single body that nobody need to worry 'bout me, oh
(Shows no one knows these days)
I had my hang-ups, I hung 'em up
(I put that dark to the side and I)
Made my peace with some nightmares
So if all you got is talk, you light work to me
(Shows you what words are good for these days)

I'll tell you what you walked yourself into (Yeah, yeah)
I'll tell you what you talked yourself into (Yeah, yeah)
Congratulations, you ran your mouth and got yourself
Nowhere, nowhere
I'll tell you what you walked yourself into (Yeah, yeah)
I'll tell you what you talked yourself into (Yeah, yeah)
Congratulations, you ran your mouth and got yourself
Nowhere, nowhere

I've got a lot of bitterness in my soul
I've got a lot of cobwebs to clean up
I've got a lot of old fears that I've gotta unlearn and I'm unlearning
Yeah, 'cause they won't help me get to where I wanna go
(They won't help me, they won't help me get to where I wanna go)
Oh, I let go and now I'm
(Up and on to better things, yeah)

I'll tell you what you walked yourself into (Yeah, yeah)
I'll tell you what you talked yourself into (Yeah, yeah)
Congratulations, you ran your mouth and got yourself
Nowhere, nowhere
I'll tell you what you walked yourself into (Yeah, yeah)
I'll tell you what you talked yourself into (Yeah, yeah)
Congratulations, you ran your mouth and got yourself
Nowhere, nowhere

Shout out to anyone who ever caught me on a bad day
And decided that that's all that I ever could be, love

I ain't got the time to throw stones
I ain't got the right to throw stones
Be well
