Imma let you cool down while I walk out
You ain't messing me up like the times before
I don't need a ticket to your sh*t show
Knock yourself out and hit a new low
Imma take the high road, take the high road, take the high road

"High Road" joins lead single "Damn Near Normal," title track "9 Lives (Black Cat)" and recent release "Sweet Dreams" in offering an early preview of the highly anticipated new album.
