Standing On Higher Ground

Once we were up, but lately we’ve been down
Picked ourselves up right up off the ground
The eagle has flown, trying to pick our brothers
You know we got help from many others
Huh! Lookit here!
We’re cleaning up, trying to get peace to last
Let’s aid the future, but don’t forget the past
Walkin' tallest plate, if you don’t step on the small
Remember: our world was created for all
We’re standing on higher ground
We’re back on top, hah! We won’t look down
Lookit here!
Standing on higher ground
We can see from miles around
Lookit here, hit it!
Wait a minute!
Don’t stay apart, let’s try to pull together
It’s up to us to make peace last forever
If we work as one, we’ll make it right for all
If we’re divided, we will surely fall
Uh! Now that we’ve come to a place, we can only grow
Let’s keep our higher ground, so we all will know
It’s like the good book said: you must reap what you sow
Good will prevail, evil must go, ha!
Standing on higher ground
We’re back on top, we won’t look down
Standing on higher ground
We can see from miles around, together
(Higher) On higher ground, hah!
(Higher) Standing up on higher ground
(Higher) Feel good on higher ground, hah!
(Higher) Ow!
Standing on higher ground
We’re back on top, hah! We won’t look down
Standing on higher ground
We can see from miles, miles around together
(Standing, standing, standing, standing, standing, standing)
Standing on higher ground
We’re back on top, hah! We won’t look down
Standing on higher ground
We can see from miles around! Everybody look!
Standing on higher ground
We’re back on top — no, we won’t look down, everybody
Standing on higher ground
We can see from miles around! Education!
