Lyrics
Yeah, what's high? Ha, and what's low? (Hey) What's low? Who? What's happening? (Hey) It's B.O (hey, 'Nelle) Well, if you're looking for me I'm probably in Metropolis, I I do this for the love so this is non-profit shit, I'm I'm board walking so you call this monopoly Obviously, my approach to music ain't moderate As my Mar-Ka-Ba spins, I am the anomaly, I Love all the haters 'cause my haters is what got me here Strangers, "Hey Bobby" me Groupies try to buddy me But I'm a different planet so excuse my astrology But there are no apologies for dropping all these prophecies Breaking over barriers, your juggernauts ain't stopping me Balance ain't symmetrical, I guess I'm just geometry Guess I'm just atomically built the way that I bomb on the beat Bomb on the beat, you stride on a beat We slide on our feet, we tightrope I don't need no optometry, I'll do this in a blindfold Honestly, we live the type of life people would die for So we keep on tipping, never slipping, yeah, we tightrope 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) (Yeah), and I'm still tippin' on it Greetings, welcome to the meeting of the minds That be thinkin' all the time 'bout defeating all the blind Following, swallowing Drinking of the time-honoured traditions of keeping in a line I prefer to figure eight, and Mandelbrot Rock all night 'til the candles on my mantle stop And it's getting programming on every single channel Watched televised revolutionaries on the chapel top Shouting down in Babylonian accounting Medieval mathematics keep us averaging, amounting But I surpass that, I dropped out of they math class I am, 'cause I thought now my tightrope's like a sidewalk, blat 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) Ha, na, na, now, now, now, now, now I can grind with the fellas and rock a stage acapella, never Can you hear me? I am unpredictable like the weather T-t-talking about me, I stay floating like a feather Jump on the elevator, baby, we on the next level Album just dropped and I been on a couple covers Black and white tux, ain't no need for no other colours T-t-talking about, "W-w-why don't she change her clothes?' Well they ain't seem to mind the last three times I posed in Vogue Some people get high and then some people get low Well, I'm gon' keep it in the middle so my people can know Underdogs stand up tall 'cause I'm talking to ya'll I can pose, I balance all like I'm Dominique Dawes Then I'm gone 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) (Woah, you keep on running around 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 Keep, keep, keep my balance Gotta, gotta keep my balance I gotta keep my balance I gotta keep my balance High or low Baby, whether you're high or low You got to tip on the tightrope Now let me see you do the tightrope
