if i could teach the world (whole wide world)
to be a thug n harmony (harmony)
then i would teach the world (whole wide world)
to be a thugsta just like me (like me)

how many more days on this old earth
can you see us riding away,
so we should get ready for armageton
cause i know god should be, ready to roll
throught one of the wickest shit
like mr police man
and dog if you wanna get the republican face in it
and pray for the polititions re-lived
do it any way
the last days of the last day
thats why i am high
thats why i am high
im holding onto my soul
Why Do I Stay High
Bone Thugs N Harmony's 'Why Do I Stay High' stands as a quintessential example of their signature sound, blending intricate vocal harmonies with a laid-back, hip-hop-infused groove. The track exemplifies the group's mastery of rhythmic delivery and melodic complexity, characteristic of their work during the late 1990s and early 2000s. While often associated with their collaborative projects and the broader East Coast hip-hop scene, the song highlights the band's ability to create atmospheric, soulful recordings that prioritize texture and flow over traditional verse structures. It remains a staple in their discography, reflecting the group's enduring influence on the genre and their unique approach to blending R&B sensibilities with rap performance.
