High Life

Lyrics

[Intro: Nelly Furtado] Well, to live the lifestyle of the rich and famous, that's the dream, isn't it? [Verse 1: Nelly Furtado] They say I was always destined for fortune and fame Now that I've gotten what I wanted Everything's changed [Pre-Chorus: Nelly Furtado] And now I'm living the high life, high life I never looked back once I left my hometown High life, high life I left behind everybody I know [Chorus: Nelly Furtado] And now I'm singing like La, la la la, la la la, la la la la la la la La la la, la la la la la la And everybody sings along like La, la la la, la la la, la la la la la la la La la la, la la la la la la Be careful when you're wishing for the high life [Verse 2: Nelly Furtado] They say you have to come clean with your past to move on All of my dreams have come true But something still feels wrong [Pre-Chorus: Nelly Furtado] But I'm still living the high life, high life I never looked back once I left my hometown High life, high life Said goodbye to everybody I know [Chorus: Nelly Furtado] And now I'm singing like La, la la la, la la la, la la la la la la la La la la, la la la la la la And everybody sings along like La, la la la, la la la, la la la la la la la La la la, la la la la la la Be careful when you're wishing for the high life [Bridge: Nelly Furtado] Everybody's dreamin' of the high life It may look good from the outside But all I really wanted was a good life With a memory reel of all the highlights All I want is to sleep good at night Look myself in the mirror knowing that I live right So when I'm six feet in the ground I'll be singing like [Verse 3: Ace Primo] Ace Primo A million dollars in palm Not a worry in the world, that's everything I want I'm wishing I was there, I feel like it's where I belong I wanna be able to go pay all the bills for my mom And make her smile Pick up my family and take 'em out On me and my over capacitated bank account Money's all I think about Of my life, it's a highlight Tired of being low, I'm ready for the high life [Verse 4: Darkchild] Look at me now Look at how I get down Stubs and Wooten on my feet I'm the flyest youngin' in town But I'm losin' it My vision has just become an illusion And now my highlife is low again Struggling to hold it in I was on a mission And messed everything up making all the wrong decisions I know it's not the end, well, then again, it might be And it's sucks, God forbid, you ever end up like me [Chorus: Nelly Furtado] And now I'm singing like La, la la la, la la la, la la la la la la la La la la, la la la la la la And everybody sings along like La, la la la, la la la, la la la la la la la La la la, la la la la la la [Outro: Nelly Furtado] Be careful when you're wishing for the high life Be careful when you're wishing for the high life Be careful when you're wishing for the high life Be careful when you're wishing for the high life
