Tightrope - Robbie Rivera's Radio Mix
Lyrics
Monáe and Leftfoot Another day I take your pain away Some people talk about you Like they know all about you When you get down, they doubt you And when you tip it on the scene Yeah, they talkin' 'bout it 'Cause they can't tip on the scene Watch you talk about it T-t-t-talkin' 'bout it When you get elevated They love it or they hate it You dance up on them haters Keep getting funky on the scene While they jumpin' round ya They tryna take all of your dreams But you can't allow it 'Cause baby, whether you're high or low Whether you're high or low You got to tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it) T-t-t-tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it) Baby, baby Whether you're high or low (high or low) Baby, whether you're high or low (high or low) You got to tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it) Now let me see you do the tightrope (tip, tip on it) And I'm still tippin' on it See I'm not walkin' on it Or tryna run around it This ain't no acrobatics You either follow or you lead Yeah, I'm talking 'bout you Or keep on blaming the machine And yeah, I'm talkin' bout it (and now I'm livin' on a dream) T-t-t-talkin' bout it I can't complain about it I gotta keep my balance And just keep dancin' on it We gettin' funky on the scene And you know about it Like a star on the screen Watch me tip all on it Then baby, whether I'm high or low (high or low) Baby, whether you're high or low (high or low) You got to tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it) Yeah, tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it) Baby, baby Whether you're high or low (high or low) Baby, whether you're high or low (high or low) Tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it) Baby, let me see you tightrope (tip, tip on it) And I'm still tippin' on it You gotta keep your balance or you'll fall into the gap It's a challenge but I manage 'cause I'm cautious with the strap Do damage to your cameras, damn, the thought that cannot pass See, while you don't want no friction like the back of a matchbook Daddy Fat Sax will fold you and your MacBook Closed shows, shut you down before we go-go backwards Act up and whether we high or low we gonna get back up Like the Dow Jones or NASDAQ Sorta like a thong in a ass crack Come on I tip on alligators And little rattlesnakers But I'm another flavor Something like a terminator Ain't no equivocating I fight for what I believe While you talkin' 'bout it Just, just, just talkin' 'bout it Some callin' me a sinner Some callin' me a winner I'm callin' you the dinner And you know exactly what I mean Yeah, I'm talkin' 'bout ya You can rock or you can leave Watch me tip without ya Now, now, now whether I'm high or low (high or low) Whether I'm high or low (high or low) I gotta tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it) (Tip, tip on it) Baby, baby Whether I'm high or low (high or low) Oh, high or low (high or low) You got to tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it) Now, baby, tip on the tightrope You can't get too high
