So High (Jay Sean song)
"So High" is a hit song by British recording singer Jay Sean. The song serves as the second single from his fourth studio album, Neon. It was produced by Afrojack, who is also the uncredited performance.
Background
In July 2012, during an interview with MTV, Jay Sean revealed about the collaboration with Afrojack. He said "Afrojack was working in the same studio that I was in when I was recording the album, and I happened to bump into him. We recognized each other, so we checked out. He played me a couple of his songs; I played him a couple of my songs. We were like, 'Yo, let's do something together.'"
He added that "The song 'So High' is just ridiculous. Afrojack is such an amazing producer." He also commented on Afrojack, saying that "Again, he lives in the clubs. He knows what works. So when it comes to actually producing, he knows what's gonna have an impact in the club."
Sean further added "So, the production on this is just incredible," "It sounds insane 'cause, again, the songwriting here was the same team who were behind 'Down,' 'Do You Remember' — myself and Jared Cotter. When we write songs, it just works. So that plus Afrojack's unbelievable production skills ... it sounds phenomenal."

Big moves bein made everyday (dee-1, Omar!)
We just pray they're the right ones (yeahhhh)
Can I fly like them eagles, can I fly like them eagles, can I fly like them eaglesss

Tall slim head turner

Accelerated learner

Over achiever
A mamma's only son
Never money over banita
And I see the finish line
Lookin right at them summer skies
Believin I can fly until I'm sure otherwise
Importing bolo's of knowledge like I'm a trafficer
Forget a google searce I'm tryin to take ya to africa
Calender full 1st to the 31st

Thursday's worth
We get it in here
I want a fan a minute
That's half a mill by next year
60 times 24 times 365
Calculate that smart guy
They say money's the root of evil
Well I'm tryin to find out
I'm in my hurry up offence for this cash boy
Ain't no time outs
We climbs outta every hole
Breakin each and every mode
I never let the word no take a tole

Not sellin out my peoples
They ain't open the door
But they lookin out the peep hole
Sayin dang he bold
He ain't quit yet
Do pigs fly

Would that astound you
You thought you was the gate keeper

Spin move
Side step
Like I'm playin d-line
I'm at the top
Lookin down
Throwin up the peace sign
Middle finger plus the index
You disrespect you get chin checked
I'm clean as a window after windex
But I hate sayin I'm clean
That's so typical
And if you nitice life is simply just like biblical
David and goliath
Homie that's nothin but a metaphore
And it's a cold world
But I got the keys to the sweater store
And ya'll good long as ya'll with me
After party tell em ya'll with dee

Adults and the kids

Cause when it's all said and done
Then it is what it is
The game was won by one

Can I fly like them eagle, can I fly like them eagles
