DJ Khaled - Higher

[Intro: DJ Khaled]

We The Best music

DJ Khaled

[Chorus: John Legend]

Oh, you keep taking me higher and higher (Yeah)

But don't you know that the devil is a liar? (Yeah, I know)

They'd rather see me down, put my soul in the fire

But we keep goin' higher, higher

[Verse 1: Nipsey Hussle]

Look, look

My granny 88, she had my uncle and then

A miscarriage back-to-back every year for like ten

Pregnant with my moms, doctor told her it was slim

Was bed rode for nine months, but gave birth in the end

Pops turned 60, he proud what we done

In one generation, he came from Africa young

He said he met my moms at the Century Club

Los Angeles love kinda of like Hussle and Boog

Mani turned ten, Kross turned two

Startin' to see this life shit from a bird's view

We the ones that made millions off the curb, fool

In this rap shit ten, never made nerd moves

[Chorus: John Legend]

Oh, you keep taking me higher and higher (Yeah)

(Hussle, Khaled)

But don't you know that the devil is a liar? (Yeah, I know)

(Right back)

They'd rather see me down, put my soul in the fire

But we keep goin' higher, higher (Woah, woah)

(Nip, talk to 'em)

[Verse 2: Nipsey Hussle & John Legend]

Emptied out the clip, it was broad day

Fuck niggas always gotta learn the hard way

We gon' tape it off if we ball play

Put a half a moon crescent on your bald fade

Police hit the lights, that's a car chase

Lookin' back at my life make my heart race

Dance with the devil and test our faith

I was thinkin' chess moves but it was God's grace

Crooked ass whoever 'til we all straight

With no shame, I peeped game and it's all fake

South Central state of mind, high crime rate (Yeah)

Homicide, hate, gang banging'll get you all day (Yeah, yeah)

And look at my fate

[Chorus: John Legend & Nipsey Hussle]

Oh, you keep taking me higher and higher (Yeah)

(Told Khaled bounce the four 'til the bar break)

But don't you know that the devil is a liar? (I know)

They'd rather see me down, put my soul in the fire

But we keep goin' higher, higher

[Outro: John Legend]

Higher

Oh, Lord

Can you feel it?

My shoes are scrapin' the sky

I'm so high

We keep goin' higher
