[VERSE 1]
I wake up in the morning yawning, the weather is storming,
Am not conforming, how will I get by I ask my self,
Another day another blunt strapped (rolled) on my shelf,
It's ten thirty my first lesson starts at twelve,
Jumped in the bath hoped out, jumped in the clothes rolled out
On my way to college I go,
Smoking the same shit from the shelf that earlier I rolled,
Caught the bus got out, took the lift to the fourth floor,
Walking through the corridor, got a lesson with Lucy at room
Four one four, sorry am late miss,
You must be taking the piss,
It's been three weeks you've been saying sorry am late miss
I promise it wont happen again, I sat down got my book out and borrowed a pen,
Here we go again it's a another lesson, open up my mind I in take notes, college done
Open up my lungs I in take tokes, this is the way I get by I smoke the weed and
[CHORUS]
High is the only way I get by
Is this the only way
High is the only way I get by
Is this the only way
High is the only way I get by I smoke the weed and get high
Is this the only way
X2
Is this the only way, I can go through the same shit everyday,
College drugs music money I want that heavy pay,
So am out on my grind I do it many ways
Don't restrict with the spliff I smoke it any place,
But stay alert on the streets for any jakes
Got my creps laced up for any chase
Give me a deal and there wont be any chase,
This is the only way
[VERSE 2]
Is this the only way?, I swear down it's only may
Gramz Milano, smoking trees with Cigaros ( cigarettes)
I know where am going so cancel out the arrows
My old lady is thinking that my path looks narrow
Not knowing the plans that I've got for the future
Promise to buy you a yard and jewels that will suit ya
Cause your the greatest women on earth and I salute her!
I know it hurts whens she smells the herbs,
When she sees me counting money I don't even work,
So how does that work, am sorry mama, I know you struggled
To bring me up without my father, from getting kicked out the house
For being pregnant of me, and then you dropped out of school and diddnt get a degree
You no longer hold my hands to cross the roads cause I'm a man now,
Am out to get you what I promised some how
For now this is the only way I get by, I smoke the weed and get high
Catch me rolling on a joint just to see my day fly
[CHORUS]
High is the only way I get by
Is this the only way
High is the only way I get by
Is this the only way
High is the only way I get by I smoke the weed and get high
Is this the only way
X2
Is this the only way, I can go through the same shit everyday,
College drugs music money I want that heavy pay,
So am out on my grind I do it many ways
Don't restrict with the spliff I smoke it any place,
But stay alert on the streets for any jakes,
Got my creps laced up for any chase,
Give me a deal and there wont be any chase,
This is the only way
