[Verse 1]
I was ‘bout to chill in the den,
‘cause I got high.
Vision flash like lightning ‘pon mi eyes,
‘cause I got high.
Grab di pen, start writing di whole scene,
‘cause I got high.
Now mi ten chapters deep, lost in di dream,
and I don’t know why.
[Chorus]
Because I got high! (hey!)
Because I got high! (yo!)
Because I got high!
[Verse 2]
Open di page again, time disappear,
‘cause I got high.
Swore I had a master plan right here,
‘cause I got high.
Coffee turn ice on di desk, mi dear,
‘cause I got high.
Whole night flip into one big joke, mi swear,
still don’t know why.
[Chorus]
Because I got high! (hey!)
Because I got high! (yo!)
Because I got high!
[Bridge]
The Eldritch is breathing…
Wendy deh a scramble…
Dreason deh a hunt mi…
Lisa deh a dying…
Paintings dem a move, alive and scheming…
One more chapter, den mi blink—
Now mi asking why…
[Post-Bridge]
Sunrise creep through di blind, but mi still wide,
‘cause I got high.
Characters dem whispering, crawling inside,
‘cause I got high.
Page count rising like di tide, no lie,
‘cause I got high.
Story got mi soul, I cyan’t say goodbye,
even though I know tomorrow I pay di price…
But right now— mi still fly!
[Final Chorus]
Because I got high! (one love!)
Because I got high! (keep di fire!)
Because I got high!
Because I got high…
