High Road (feat. John Legend) (Explicit) - Fort Minor/John Legend

Lyrics by：Mike Shinoda

Produced by：Mike Shinoda

Let's go ya'll

These people are running off at the mouth

Trying to convince me that I'm running on empty

Trying to convince themselves

That the record with Jay was a fluke

That the record that I'm making is a mistake

And I can't take this

Let me tell you where I'm at with this

You bastards are gonna have to take back that ****

I'm not plastic and fake

When I make tracks I take facts

And lay them out for the masses

You assholes are gonna see soon that I'm not playing

And start asking me the names that I'm not saying

But I'm trying to be bigger than the bickering

Bigger than the petty name calling

Under-the-breath talking

Rumors and labels and categorization

I'm like a struggling doctor no patients

But you can say what you want about me

Keep talking while I'm walking away

You can say what you have to say

'Cause my mind's made up anyway

I'm taking the high road going above you

This is the last time that I'm gonna trust you

You can say what you have to say

'Cause my mind's made up anyway

All that ******** you talk might work a lot

But it's not gonna work today

Not gonna work today

You people are running off at the mouth

Trying to make me take myself off safety

Trying to make my friends turn their

Backs on the team we've built

Building up some mistaken information

And I can't take this

Let me spell it out plain for you

Angry groups complaining about the things we do

I'm not changing direction I'm stepping my game up

Maintaining my name same way that I came up

You're gonna see that I'm not playing

And start asking the names that I'm not saying

But I'm tryin' not to mention the

Names of people who wanna siphon attention

You like the hype but pretending

You're part of the picture won't pass

You're like a high school dropout no class

You can say what you want about me

Keep talking while I'm walking away

You can say what you have to say

'Cause my mind's made up anyway

I'm taking the high road going above you

This is the last time that I'm gonna trust you

You can say what you have to say

'Cause my mind's made up anyway

All that ******** you talk might work a lot

But it's not gonna work today

Not gonna work today

Why does it always have to be

Somebody's always watching me

All I really need is some room to breathe

Breathe breathe

Is anybody out there listening

'Cause I can't stand to keep this in

All I really want I'll say again

Yeah yeah

Like that

You can say what you have to say

'Cause my mind's made up anyway

I'm taking the high road going above you

This is the last time that I'm gonna trust you

You can say what you have to say

'Cause my mind's made up anyway

All that ******** you talk might work a lot

But it's not gonna work today

Not gonna work today
