Version Originale:

Whoaaa
(Yeah, yeah)
Another day
(Dab-a-dee)
I take your pain away

Some people talk about ya
Like they know all about ya
When you get down, they doubt ya
And when you dip it on the scene
Yeah, they talkin' bout it
'Cause they can't dip on the scene
Watch ya talk about it
T-t-t-talkin' 'bout it

When you get elevated,
They love it or they hate it
You dance up on them haters
Keep getting funky on the scene
Why they jumpin' round ya
They trying to take all of your dreams
But you can't allow it

'Cause baby, whether you're high or low
Whether you're high or low
You got to tip on the tightrope
(Yeah, tip on it)
T-t-t-tip on the tightrope
(Tip, tip on it)

Baby, baby
Whether you're high or low
(High or low)
Baby whether you're high or low
(High or low)
You got to tip on the tightrope
(Yeah, tip on it)
Now let me see you do the tightrope
(Tip, tip on it)
And I'm still tippin' on it

And I'm still tippin' on it
And I'm still tippin' on it
And I'm still tippin' on it
And I'm still tippin' on it

And I'm still tippin' on it
And I'm still tippin' on it
And I'm still tippin' on it
And I'm still tippin' on it

See I'm not walkin' on it
Or tryin' to run around it
This ain't no acrobatics
You either follow or you lead

Yeah, I'm talkin' 'bout you,
I'll keep on blaming the machine, yeah
I'm talkin' bout it,
T-t-t-talkin' bout it
I can't complain about it
I gotta keep my balance

And just keep dancin' on it
We gettin' funky on the scene

Yeah, you know about it,
Like a star on the screen
Watch me tip all on it

Then baby whether I'm high or low
(High or low)
Baby, whether you're high or low
(High or low)
You gotta tip on the tightrope
(Yeah, tip on it)
Yeah, tip on the tightrope
(Tip, tip on it)

Baby, baby
Whether you're high or low
(High or low)
Baby, whether you're high or low
(High or low)
Tip on the tightrope
(Tip, tip on it)
Baby, let me see you tightrope
(Tip, tip on it)
And I'm still tippin' on it

And I'm still tippin' on it
And I'm still tippin' on it
And I'm still tippin' on it
And I'm still tippin' on it

And I'm still tippin' on it
And I'm still tippin' on it
And I'm still tippin' on it
And I'm still tippin' on it

[Big Boi]

You gotta keep your balance
Or you fall into the gap
It's a challenge but I manage
Cause I'm cautious with the strap
Do damage to your cameras damn I thought that
Can I pass, see
Why you don't want no friction
Like the back of a matchbook
That I pass as I will forward you
And your MacBook
Clothes shows will shut you down
Before we go-go backwards
Act up, and whether we high or low
We gonna get back up
Like the Dow Jones and NASDAQ
Sorta like a thong in an ass crack,
Come on

Come on
Come on
Come on
Come on

Come on
Come on
Come on
Come on
