Higher Ground

You want heaven on a plate heaven on a plate
You given up 'cause you see
A hurdle in your lane so many cause the pain
But you pick them up then you
Just throw them all away
You want heaven on a plate
But you'll never get a taste

Baby you don't know what it means
You don't know till you're down, down
Down enough drowning in the dreams
You don't know till you're kicked
Back off to the shore
Higher ground is there for you
Higher ground is yours
Higher ground won't wait for you
But you don't know, oh

Heaven on a plate you want heaven a plate
You given up 'cause you see
A hurdle in your lane so many cause the pain
You could do but you wanna tell you every day
You want heaven on a plate
But you'll never get a taste

Baby you don't know what it means
You don't know till you're down, down
Down enough drowning in the dreams
You don't know till you're kicked
Back off to the shore
Higher ground is there for you
Higher ground is yours
Higher ground won't wait for you
But you don't know, oh
