Get Low, Get High (Part 2) (feat. Jon Batiste & Michael Todd)

Man come on Willy, let's do this thing
Tell the people what it is

You gotta get low, so you can get high
You gotta scrub the ground if you wanna touch the sky
Singing la-da-da-da, you need the rain before the sunshine
To get by
You gotta get down, so you can get up
All you really need is a little bit of love
So, lean your seat back, buckle up, it's a long ride
You gotta get low, so you can get high

I woke up on the floor and the sky is pouring
I'm getting tired of feeling like this every morning
I looked into the mirror and I can't ignore it
I'm feeling the weight, hey
There ain't no brushing off the world on your shoulder
I figured out that you go under to get over
So, if you're someone out there looking for some closure
Well, I gotta say

You gotta get low, so you can get high
You gotta scrub the ground if you wanna touch the sky
Singing la-da-da-da, you need the rain before the sunshine
(La-da-da-da) to get by
You gotta get down, so you can get up
All you really need is a little bit of love
So, lean your seat back, buckle up, it's a long ride
You gotta get low, so you can get high

Grandma said you got to hope
Got to see yourself in visions, in designer suits
Tune it up like a TV when she's watching soaps
Mama knows, mama knows not to block the flow
I'm gone

Grandma say, go shine, 'cause the Lord said it's your time (better get along)
Singers singin' swingin', swingin' low sweet chariot
Coming forth to carry us whenever we can't bury it
Now whether y'all selling hope or dealing dope
Whether hanging with the pope or chilling with the folk
We all deal with the highs and the lows

You gotta get low, so you can get high
You gotta scrub the ground if you wanna touch the sky
Singing la-da-da-da, you need the rain before the sunshine
To get by
You gotta get down, so you can get up
All you really need is a little bit of love
So, lean your seat back, buckle up, it's a long ride
You gotta get low, so you can get high

Get high (get high)
Get high (get high)
Get high (get high)

Okay, I'm talking to my fellas
Get low
And then I'm talking to my ladies, yeah
Get high
I'm talking to the grown folks (get low)
The old folks, even the itty-bitty babies

Hey cuz (wadup Mich)
Let me talk to them for a second
See the truth of the matter is
If you gonna experience the highest in this life
You gotta be okay with the lows
And if you're feeling low right now
Be encouraged there's a part you get up the air, I promise

You gotta get low, so you can get high
You gotta scrub the ground if you wanna touch the sky
Singing la-da-da-da, you need the rain before the sunshine
(La-da-da-da) to get by
You gotta get down, so you can get up
All you really need is a little bit of love (all you need is got love)
So, lean your seat back, buckle up, it's a long ride (yeah)
You gotta get low, so you can get high

I think, I like it up here, I think I like it up here
