Illastrate - High As You... lyrics

[Verse 1] Yo, I'm black in white garments Eyes are like comets Whips on my back put tiger stripes on it Braver than a Bengal, I should make that sh** my symbol The spirit of the temple's living in this instrumentals, uh Hide your producers, the ba** is too wide for the woofers My radio's bangin' I carry it like a bazooka The Clash of the Titans the past got the Eyes of Medusa But my minds of the future my brother we lions of Judah They portray us in the time of a riot as looters But we know we the apple of the eye, Yahuah They bugging n***as conversations on high end computers Spending millions of dollars and it's all to confuse ya Who stay in the news, causing change sh** you know it's not a game We got the fathers name I'm not ashamed That's why they hate ya Cause you gon be the saviors from these modern day slavers So how high you gone take us? [Chorus](x2) As high as you want to go Is as high as you will be How high do you want to go? Cause heaven is callin me [Verse 2] Yea, we're birds of a feather We can fly alone fast or get further together A few flew to other flocks, when they heard it was better But none of them could even make it through this turbulent weather For all you new blacks, looks like you forgot a few facts When you extend a hand in peace, then wonder why they drew back Everybody lookin after theirs but look how you act A boy was shot, they say he ain't a saint But tell me who dat, be the first to hold weapons While you protesting Screaming that your life matters, Yeah that's no question So why we got an increase in, skin bleaching But camouflage is only for species that's in season, yea So let's separate the wheat from chaff, meat from fat Anything that's gonna keep you back Why be like everybody else when you can lead the pack These feet are black But I'ma leave it glowing where I leave my tracks [Chorus](x2) As high as you want to go Is as high as you will be How high do you want to go? Cause heaven is callin me Cause heaven is calling me
