Arthur Lewis - We go high lyrics

[Intro] I know that sometimes You look into the sky and can't see the sunshine Look into my eyes I've been living a lifetime Walking through the daylight thinking it's nighttime [Verse 1] And all that I saw was dark clouds Look into my heart you can see the spark now Wanna be free to rip these bars down So I can reach for the sun and stars now [Chorus] When they go low We go high, so high, so high And you know we don't back down We raise our hands to the sky 'Cause our time is right now We go high, so high, so high And you know we stand our ground We raise our hands to the sky 'Cause our time is right now (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Our time is right now Whoa, whoa, whoa yeah Our time is right now [Verse 2] I was shouting "We about to win!" From on top the mountain But how come when they made the announcement I could not accept the outcome I was outright outraged Ready to riot, ready to protest The next morning my mother Sent me a text she said- 'I know you're stressed Full of fear and unrest But it ain't about the red and blue I need you to be the best You, you can't possibly be In this country that's free Up be the man and the example For these children to see Son I know you're sick of it all You hitting the wall And it all fills you with betrayal Don't sit in stall, get involved And I heard you threaten to leave Say you would pick up and go elsewhere Say that to a single mother Living off of welfare No, no son This is where you come from We didn't build a life for you So you could pick up and run I know you well as it hurt But going on the attack But you will never be heard Unless you listen back' [Chorus] When they go low We go high, so high, so high And you know we don't back down We raise our hands to the sky 'Cause our time is right now We go high, so high, so high And you know we stand our ground We raise our hands to the sky 'Cause our time is right now (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Yeah, our time is right now (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Yeah Our time is right now [Intro] I know that sometimes You look into the sky and can't see the sunshine Look into my eyes I've been living a lifetime Walking through the daylight thinking it's nighttime [Chorus] When they go low We go high, so high, so high And you know we don't back down We raise our hands to the sky 'Cause our time is right now We go high, so high, so high And you know we stand our ground We raise our hands to the sky 'Cause our time is right now We go high, so high, so high And you know we don't back down We raise our hands to the sky 'Cause our time is right now We go high, so high, so high And you know we stand our ground We raise our hands to the sky 'Cause our time is right now (Whoa whoa whoa) Yeah our time is right now
