Wrekonize - Higher Ground lyrics

[Intro: Wrekonize] Yup, I know alot of yall' been wonderin'... Where is Paradise? Been thinkin' that too... But as the years pa** by I started to realize... It's to be created There's nobody else that could do it but you [Verse 1] Back when I was just a little kid tryna get a grip on this big world, with my fingertips I was ignorant to the viciousness, of a human being bein' dissonant Momma always taught me kindness, treat em' just the way you wanna be Kept my friends coverin' my back, kept my enemies right in front of me Kept an eye on the prize, eye to the line, nope, I don't wanna drown Oh it's k**in' me this negativity, and now it's tippin' me I'm goin' down Somebody help me, please help me Got no money but I'm feelin' wealthy (Nope.) No Insurance but I'm feelin' healthy (Nope.) I'm just tryna play the hand they dealt me (C'mon!) Few players at the table folded, couple others went to do they own sh** I don't judge 'em really I still love 'em I just hope they find a world that truly coax them Cause this rock is beaten' up and broken, by the promises that we've been hopin' Stay golden, and unfrozen, until we finally get to find the quotient You've got answers? (You've got answers?) Well I've got questions (Well I've got questions.) Is this banter? (Is this banter?) Or is it Lessons? (I don't know.) Alot of evil cats runnin' round without a bit tact or discretion I'm tryna' climb a little higher up to get the blessin's [Hook] Everytime I come down, I'm tryna find some high ground Higher Ground (2x) Everytime you're around, you make me feel like I'm bound for higher ground Higher Ground (Higher!) [Verse 2] With their views obstructed, seen 'em smilin' but I never trusted What a way for human beings to function, what f** sh** To be stuck wit' a bunch of people that we ain't grew up with Tryin to pretend, that we'll be friends, but they actually speak a different gumption You've got a phone, dontcha know the code bro? So if you could just reach out once in a while To get the tone no this ain't a drone blowin' a bunch of smoke out on the river Nile Man with friends like these I'm glad to have a woman like I do to hold me down It's her and I, against the tribe, but don't nobody never needed to fit in the crowd So get comin' out into the vibrant miles of sky we call the higher sound And find a person you can fly with and keep an eye out for those who circlin' round And just breathe Sometimes I bite my lip until it bleeds See, this is just a message for my inner messes buried underneath the pounds Seein' all these people know me I'm still lonely homey I'm just here and wonderin' how And when I'm happy evil thoughts get at me still they pull me out into the deeper shroud I wanna leave it all behind so when you look you'll find me up on the higher ground Higher Ground [Hook] Everytime I come down, I'm tryna find some high ground Higher Ground (2x) Everytime you're around, you make me feel like I'm bound for higher ground Higher Ground (Higher! (2x))
