Master Ya High

[Verse 1]

I got my head straight, is yours straight?

Talkin' loud but you fake like gold plate

Can you make a decision when under pressure?

It's hard to punk down when a sucker wanna test ya

Honey over there, she like Versace wear

I hear she trickin' her physique for Moschino gear

It's a shame how the morals ain't there

When asked, how can you do it? She respond without a care

Young niggas smokin', abusin' the medicine

Brains are burnt, lights out like Tom Edison

Got a disease, you say how can it be

Slingin' wood carefree, riskin' HIV, woah

Solace be my strength, gets the polar

Sonar, I'm fully alert, beware the man cold as Guiliani

Ain't playin' when it come to givin' bids

Slow your face, give yourself space, you better get it on time, kid

[Chorus: Slick Rick]

Master your high

Life as you see it be about the most least concernin' human beings

Accomplish things, word up

See the wonder and the joy life brings

[Verse 2]

Talkin' with God as I read my Qur'an (Master your high)

Peace to Latin and Black, let convicts stay strong

Treatin' us like a safari of animals

Flooded with lectors in the government without the name Hannibal

I see rappers frontin' gangster on TV

And try to screw face a nigga when they see me

First off, your movie antics don't move me

My crew be grown men, I get a word, they do they duty

Livin' a lie, you ain't fly, yo

Two years ago, you was a average Joe

I thought you was friend, but you a foe now

Eventually me and you were gonna bump heads and have a showdown

And when the time come be on point

I ain't with takin' a life, so fuck a joint

We could do it with the hands or a mic

And if I see weakness, I'ma show people your true light

And, uh, it'll be sight for sore eyes

The true cream is always known to rise

My mystic, you bow to my feet that is

As I place my hand upon your dome and tell you, ''Get it on time, kid''

[Chorus: Slick Rick]

Master your high

Life as you see it be about the most least concernin' human beings

Accomplish things, word up

See the wonder and the joy life brings

Master your high

Life as you see it be about the most least concernin' human beings

Accomplish things, word up

See the wonder and the joy life brings

[Verse 3]

Call me a punk 'cause I ain't talkin' about plastic rappin' (Master your high)

While your ass is locked up or beat down, I'ma be laughin'

Whatever happened to the sayin', bad boys move in silence?

If you know how to separate skills from the violence

If I try to leave or escape from the press

While the slave mentality minds playin' brave

Master your high, gals and guys of not try

Hard rock the chairs in effect, commit murder? You're fried

Little kids skippin' puberty, callin' themselves advancin'

Mommy got kidnapped, raped in hell for ransom

I'm very bored, hearin' the same old score

Every song I hear is about guns and whores

What you dealin' with? Your deck is influenced by the next ace

Or shawty showin' cleavage, worried about her chest space

Livin' mirages, cats catchin' charges

Locked down with bullies showin' 'em really where they heart is

Step back, peep the scenery and live

Then take a deep breath and tell yourself, ''I gotta get it on time, kid''

[Chorus: Slick Rick]

See the wonder and the joy life brings

Master your high

Life as you see it be about the most least concernin' human beings

Accomplish things, word up

See the wonder and the joy life brings

Master your high

Life as you see it be about the most least concernin' human beings

Accomplish things, word up

See the wonder and the joy life brings

Master your high
