Higher Ground (Live/1995) Lyrics

People keep on learnin'
Soldiers keep on warrin'
World keep on turnin'
'Cause it won't be too long

Powers keep on lyin'
While your people keep on dyin'
World keep on turnin'
'Cause it won't be too long

I'm so darn glad he let me try it again
'Cause my last time on earth
I lived a whole world of sin
I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then
Gonna keep on tryin'
'Til I reach my highest ground

Lovers keep on lovin', lovin'
Believers keep on believin'
Sleepers just stop sleepin'
'Cause it won't be too long
Oh yeah

I'm so glad that he let me try it again
'Cause my last time on earth
I lived a whole world of sin
I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then
Gonna keep on tryin'
'Til I reach my highest ground

'Til I reach my highest ground
No one's gonna bring me down
They'll sure enough try
I'm gonna go higher (higher)
Higher (higher)
Higher (higher)
Higher (higher)

Higher (higher)
Higher (higher)
Higher (higher)
Higher (higher)

Preach it (preach it)
Preach it (preach it)
Preach it (preach it)
Higher (higher)

Higher (higher)
Higher (higher)
Higher (higher)
Higher (higher)

Higher (higher)
Higher (higher)
Higher (higher)
Higher (higher)

Don't you let nobody take you back, oh no, never
Just keepin' it, keepin' it, keepin' it up on the highest ground
Don't you let nobody take you back, oh yes, never
Just keepin' it, keepin' it, keepin' it on the highest ground
