Lyrics to: Sirgin - High [chorus] His mamma told him to be strong so he don't cry His daddy turned away before his game time Avoiding every question so he don't lie That's why he's out looking for ways to get high.... That's why he's out looking for ways to get high.... (X2) [First Verse] In life, there's many ways that you can go.. right or left.. or up and then down quickly.. I ask you to stay with me Good morning the sun comes up.. Good night the sun falls... But life's like a wave .. hold onto the surfboard My dad was long gone... And I would try to be funny .. To try and hide the scars from thinking he didn't love me... Or didn't want me.. mamma tell me, I know your busy And doing a fine job of raising us in this city Though I feel a burden heavy on my heart and my soul And if I knew the way to fix it I would be at home And everything I try do right just keeps on going wrong But if you listen to my cries you'll know that they're all gone Cos I done met this lady and she takes away my pain And she don't have no preference she just dances in the rain And makes me feel calm so that I can try express I'm telling you my story hope that you don't think no less [Chorus] His mamma told him to be strong so he don't cry His daddy turned away before his game time Avoiding every question so he don't lie That's why he's out looking for ways to get high.... That's why he's out looking for ways to get high.... (X2) [Second Verse] I sat down after you left.. This ice stole my world, I looked back It was gone.. And this is what I said, It's one of the biggest things in the country In the papers... It takes mothers and brothers.. sisters and fathers The whole lot, ..It doesn't have a preference.. What-they-care about is you have a gift so think about the message.. Every-time-you-feeling-down remember this, at least you livin And-you-know I'll be right there, don't ever think of me as missing Even-though I can't be there to watch my daughter graduate Talk to my son coz he feels sad, ..coz his dad's away I hope you tell em who I was before I hit the rails About the times we'd jump the fence at the show and bail My childhood some of the best times we laughed and cried And never tried to hide the way that we felt inside I wish I never would of done it when my heart stopped That's when I saw my world fade and my body drop... drop [chorus] His mamma told him to be strong so he don't cry His daddy turned away before his game time Avoiding every question so he don't lie That's why he's out looking for ways to get high.... That's why he's out looking for ways to get high.... (X2) [Bridge] Yo I'm tellin you my story Hope that you don't think no less.... Look in the mirror You should... Look in the mirror (X4) ahhh [chorus] His mamma told him to be strong so he don't cry His daddy turned away before his game time Avoiding every question so he don't lie That's why he's out looking for ways to get high.... That's why he's out looking for ways to get high.... (X2)
