Higher

Soften up the mess
Drop it in the water
Let the daughter find her image with the rest
She′ll be learnin' how to breathe
Spinnin′ through identity
Reveal another pretty little scheme
Save her mind
Hold her hand
And don't believe a lie
You understand me
Walk her down the valley
Pack a piece of heaven for the bottoms of her feet
Teach her how to jump and how to stretch when she reach
Like the angels do
And you gon' make it through now
Tell her ′bout the Healer
Greater is the One within her
Call Him as the leader
Teach her how to hold her pretty hand up to the sky
And have her wait upon the Giver
He′ll deliver like a dealer
To take her higher
Higher
Fly out the valley and the fire
Take her higher
Higher
Fly up out the valley and the fire
Train her feet for runnin'
Show her every door and how the windows let the Sun in
Copy out the key and tell her
This is for becoming
Even in the fever, baby
Cry and get to runnin′
And tell her that you better get your bootstraps up
You're with the army
Ready when the Truth act up
Nothing can harm me
Yellin′ from the roof I touch
Put up a guarding
Count to ten
Lion's den
Speaking with a higher pen
Can′t be touched by fire then
Fast forward to the grown things now
I'm workin' on them soul things now
Forgivin′ all your old ways
But it′s harder on the cold days
Cold days
Never been a product of a flawless environment
Never acted like I'm higher than you
And I still pray
Dear God won′t you send me a break
'Cause I, I need to get away, yeah
Dear God won't you send me a break
'Cause I, I need to get away, yeah
'Cause I would rather be, rather be runnin′ away
I would rather be, rather be runnin'
Dear God won′t you send me a break cause I
I need to get away, yeah
I need to get away now
I need to get away now
