[Verse 1]
Heart beats slow
I think it’s time to go
Same old thing again
Same old dead-end show
Damn this life
Always pulling on my pride
Every smile I fake
Is another little lie I hide
[Chorus]
If I have to leave this world
I’m gonna leave it high
Glass to the ceiling
Tears in my eyes
I ain’t going quiet
I was born to testify
If I have to leave this world
I’m gonna leave it high (so high)
[Verse 2]
Bills on the table
Dreams on the floor
Talking to the shadows
Can’t do this anymore
But there’s fire in the ashes
Spark in my sigh
If they try to shut me down
Watch me still touch the sky
[Chorus]
If I have to leave this world
I’m gonna leave it high
Lungs full of shouting
Head to the sky
Paint my name in thunder
Let my troubles fly
If I have to leave this world
I’m gonna leave it high (leave it high)
