Various Artists - Higher Ground lyrics

[Verse 1] People Keep on learning Soldiers Keep on warring World Keep on turning Because it won't be too long Powers Keep on lying While your people Keep on dying World Keep on turning Because it won't be too long [Chorus] I'm so darn glad he let me try it again Because my last time on earth I lived a whole world of sin I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then Going to keep on trying until I reach the highest ground [Verse 2] Teachers Keep on teaching Preachers Keep on preaching World, keep on turning Because it won't be too long Oh, no! Lovers Keep on loving While believers Keep on believing Sleepers Just stop sleeping Because it won't be too long Oh, no! [Chorus] I'm so darn glad he let me try it again Because my last time on earth I lived a whole world of sin I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then Going to keep on trying until I reach the highest ground [Outro] And Stevie knows that, uh, nobody's going to bring me down Until I reach the highest ground Because me and Stevie, see, we're going to be sailing on the funky sound Until I reach the highest ground Busting out, and I'll break you out, because I'm sailing on Until I reach the highest ground Just, uh, sailing on, sailing on the higher ground Until I reach the highest ground
