I Wanna Get High Lyrics

[Intro]
I want to get high, so high
I want to get high, so high
I want to get high, so high

I want to get high, so high

[Verse: B-Real]
Well it's the funk elastic, the blunt I twist it
The slamafied, Buddhafied funk on your discus

Oh, what, you missed this? You got to bear witness
Catch a ho and another ho, Merry Christmas
Yes I smoke shit, straight off the roach clip
I wrote shit for the blunted ones to approach it
Forward motion, make you sway like the ocean
The herb is more than just a powerful potion
What's the commotion? Yo, I'm not jokin' around
People learnin' 'bout, what they're smokin'
My oven's on high when I roast the quail
Tell Bill Clinton to go and inhale
Exhale, now you felt the funk of the Thai
Wanna feel the effects?

[Chorus]
I want to get high, so high
I want to get high, so high
I want to get high, so high
I want to get high, so high

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
