They say that you can see more with your eyes closed. How often do you close your eyes? Not to sleep, but to see things you can’t see while your eyes are wide open?
Life can get low, boring, monotonous, drudgery, passionless, and then we begin to seek distractions.
Rather than resetting our focus, renewing our mind, relaxing, and coming back recharged and refreshed, we either get stuck in the bad cycle or mistake the place of renewal and relaxation as our destination.
Some people get addicted to what was supposed to be a temporal source of release and pleasure. We find our “high” and want to remain there. This has led to misuse, abuse, and dependence on drugs, alcohol, sex, relationship, porn, game, gambling, and others.
Finding that perfect high; that state of optimal sensation, where you have no worries, fears, or inability is often a goose-chase.
Life is in cycles. Sometimes things go so perfectly, you don’t want them to end. Other times, they get so bad, you are in a hurry to get to the end.
Learning how to enjoy the high points and handle the low points healthily is an invaluable life skill and an important part of adulting.
There are a thousand and one healthy ways of getting that high, still, it must be done in moderation.

Eva Alordiah’s High Lyrics

Yeah ah…
We be like right here and trynna get it on and ah. . .
It feels like this shit been going on and on and ah, stop for a bit
You know what I mean

They say that you can see more with your eyes closed
Forgetting about all the things that your mind knows
Trying to get it on, spitting all the right flows
Now you’re waiting for the night shows till the night goes
They tell you, yes, life’s short, have you thought of this
Having all the best things, forgetting what you’d rather miss
Everybody’s only waiting up for another kiss
To get ’em back to the prince that they thought they is
Trying to do this better than the ones my names follow
Got me talking so much shit, now it’s kind of hard to swallow
Crazy now, I’m just feeling like I won the lotto
Getting more head than you, so it’s sleepy hollow
All of them’a tell you life’s bitter like Yoyo
They wanna poke you in the eyes: Apolo
And you’re the one that they say they’d never follow
So they just leave you on your own: solo

Bad belle people dem say make we no blow
They say we never buy house buy motor
But everyday na we dey here dey run show
Gbogbo won ti fe ma ya mi’n photo
Everybody wanna be the one
And in the club all of them are want it really long
Everybody on the street want a million
But me no get no clue about the things I really want

But me know say me wan get high, get high, yeah
Me just wanna get high, get high, get high. . .
We just gonn’ get it on like… (chuckles)

Some tell ish to the eye like herpes
Yeah I know you like this, you can’t even help this
In my past life, I used to be damn nervous
Now I’m so fly rock and roll like Elvis
Trynna walk in my shoes wearing flip flops here
When they say your time coming, get it click-clock there
Even mugu wey dey here dey form hip-hop head
See them, just steady giving hip-hop here
We say we never stopping until we turn heads
Give ’em everything we know that the streets don’t hear
And they say I waste my time thinking it’s gonn’ blare
Bad belle people tell them, me don’t care
Honestly, I been locking more hair than dreads
Stashing more dough, gotta bake more bread
Now I’m the one that these peeps gonn’ fear
When they say I do it go I’ll be like “oh yeah”
So yes we’re taking over now we trying to get it in
From Lasgidi to Abuja to Port Harcourt and Benin
It’s like we’re only thinking of the things that we win
You can get it all, just remember how you begin

Everybody wanna be the one
And in the club all of them are want it really long
Everybody on the street want a million
But me no get no clue about the things I really want
But me know say me wan get high, get high, yeah
Me just wanna get high, get high, get high

Well, you see where I’m at right now it’s like, you know…
Steps, steps, yeah we just keep going…
We ain’t coming down though (chuckles)
But I gotta get high on this shit, and just get it on and get it done
So I’m like Gray Jones just let it play
