| Well I remember
|
| Drivin' around
|
| Trying to think of each and every way that I could maybe get my ass up out this
|
| town
|
| And I remember
|
| It wasn’t long ago
|
| I used to tell my momma «stop with the yelling, a normal job isn’t why I’m in
|
| this world»
|
| And I remember sitting outside my school in the back of Zach’s car blowing smoke
|
| Telling all of my friends that one day we ain’t gonna be broke
|
| But I guess dreams come true because now
|
| I’m writing this by the ocean somehow
|
| Well I was so low
|
| But now I’m high in California
|
| Well I was so low
|
| But now I’m getting high in California
|
| I was so low, low, low, low, low
|
| But now
|
| Now I’m getting high in California
|
| Well I remember
|
| Everyone telling me it would be too hard
|
| But now my artists turned to friends and Mercy Street turned to Sunset Boulevard
|
| And I remember walking down the train tracks
|
| Looking up towards the stars saying «Get us out of here» as we passed around a
|
| bottle full of jack
|
| And I remember coming home at night hoping I don’t smell like smoke
|
| Telling my momma «Don't worry one day we ain’t gonna be broke
|
| Imma pay the bills with these six strings just watch me»
|
| Now I’m on a roll and nobody can stop me
|
| Well I was so low
|
| But now I’m high in California
|
| Well I was so low
|
| But now I’m getting high in California
|
| I was so low, low, low, low, low
|
| But now
|
| Now I’m getting high in California
|
| I’m running 'til I’m dead
|
| I will never slow down
|
| The voice inside my head
|
| Is telling me to go now
|
| Never look back (x3)
|
| Well I was so low
|
| But now I’m high in California
|
| Well I was so low
|
| But now I’m getting high in California
|
| I was so low, low, low, low, low
|
| But now
|
| Now I’m getting high in California
|
| Now I’m getting high because
|
| I was so low
|
| But now I’m getting high in California
|
| Well I was so low
|
| But now I’m getting high in California
|
| Well I was so low, low, low, low, low
|
| But now
|
| Oh now I’m getting high in California |
