Higher Ground

[Verse 1] I got something burnin' in my chest An ocean made of embers unexpressed Flickers from a heartbeat that won't change And when my moment comes I've set my aim [Pre-Chorus] I know that I'm lucky, yeah, I got it good Still, my body's restless, always on the move [Chorus] It's in my bloodstream, I Think I'm ready for a higher ground Finding my reasons why 'Cause I never wanna slow down Ooh, ooh Yeah, I never wanna slow down Ooh, ooh Think I'm ready for a higher ground [Verse 2] People say, "A fire's bound to fade" But when I want it bad I just can't wait You can be a cynic all you want But when I'm on my feet I give my all [Pre-Chorus] I know that I'm lucky, yeah, I got it good Still, my body's restless, always on the move [Chorus] It's in my bloodstream, I Think I'm ready for a higher ground Finding my reasons why 'Cause I never wanna slow down Ooh, ooh Yeah, I never wanna slow down Ooh, ooh Think I'm ready for a higher ground [Bridge] Call me naive, I got wide eyes But if it goes to hell, I know I tried [Chorus] It's in my bloodstream, I Think I'm ready for a higher ground Finding my reasons why 'Cause I never wanna slow down Ooh, ooh Yeah, I never wanna slow down Ooh, ooh Think I'm ready for a higher ground (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
