Lyrics:
Higher Ground by Chad Lewine
Thousand of years
Thousands of tears
Thousands of lives lost in the wind
Millions of cells
Millions will tell
We’re not, we’re not gonna sell
No
Our soul to the darkness
To the country
Or to the man in the tower
Won’t sell one thing
Or take another dollar
Or spend another hour
I don’t wanna see this world go down
I just wanna see the lost love found
And if we come together right now, now, now
We’ll be standing on higher ground
Thousands of times
Thousands have tried
Thousands now emerge from the dark
Millions have fell
Millions will tell
The truth, that we don’t wanna sell
No
Our soul to the darkness
To the country
Or to the man in the tower
Won’t sell one thing
Or take another dollar
Or spend another hour
I don’t wanna see this world go down
I just wanna see the lost love found
And if we come together right now, now, now
We’ll be standing on higher ground
Standing on higher ground
I know there’s a place in your heart
Tap into it and start
Lift your vision, lift your gaze
To a higher place
I know you wanna change
And you’ll do anything
So won’t you run where the ground touches sky
There’s a place in your heart
You wanna change
And you’ll do anything
Do anything to end the suffering
Yeah
Come together on the higher ground right now
I don’t wanna see this world go down
I just wanna see the lost love found
And if we come together right now, right now
We’ll be standing on higher ground
Standing on higher ground
Standing on higher ground
