Wishing Chair - Higher Ground lyrics

The waters are rising I can feel it Where oh where can we stand The rich and the wicked pulling us down Better move on to higher ground The trees that they're cutting Higher ground The tops off the mountains Higher ground They've poisoned the waters Higher ground Better move them all to higher ground Their colors of justice Higher ground The heartbroke and homeless Higher ground The beatings that won't stop Higher ground Better move them all to higher ground By helping each other It's higher ground Teaching the children The higher ground Protecting the Mother The higher ground Together on the higher ground Now we're standing on the higher ground
