We Go High

I know that sometimes
You look into the sky and can’t see the sunshine
Look into my eyes I’ve been living a lifetime
Walking through the daylight thinking it’s nighttime
And all that I saw was dark clouds
Look into my heart you can see the spark now
Wanna be free to rip these bars down
So I can reach for the sun and stars now
When they go low
We go high, so high, so high
And you know we don’t back down
We raise our hands to the sky
'Cause our time is right now
We go high, so high, so high
And you know we stand our ground
We raise our hands to the sky
'Cause our time is right now
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)
Our time is right now
Whoa, whoa, whoa yeah
Our time is right now
I was shouting «We about to win!»
From on top the mountain
But how come when they made the announcement
I could not accept the outcome
I was outright outraged
Ready to riot, ready to protest
The next morning my mother
Sent me a text she said-
'I know you’re stressed
Full of fear and unrest
But it ain’t about the red and blue
I need you to be the best
You, you can’t possibly be
In this country that’s free
Up be the man and the example
For these children to see
Son
I know you’re sick of it all
You hitting the wall
And it all fills you with betrayal
Don’t sit in stall, get involved
And I heard you threaten to leave
Say you would pick up and go elsewhere
Say that to a single mother
Living off of welfare
No, no son
This is where you come from
We didn’t build a life for you
So you could pick up and run
I know you well as it hurt
But going on the attack
But you will never be heard
Unless you listen back'
When they go low
We go high, so high, so high
And you know we don’t back down
We raise our hands to the sky
'Cause our time is right now
We go high, so high, so high
And you know we stand our ground
We raise our hands to the sky
'Cause our time is right now
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)
Yeah, our time is right now
(Whoa, whoa, whoa) Yeah
Our time is right now
I know that sometimes
You look into the sky and can’t see the sunshine
Look into my eyes I’ve been living a lifetime
Walking through the daylight thinking it’s nighttime
When they go low
We go high, so high, so high
And you know we don’t back down
We raise our hands to the sky
'Cause our time is right now
We go high, so high, so high
And you know we stand our ground
We raise our hands to the sky
'Cause our time is right now
We go high, so high, so high
And you know we don’t back down
We raise our hands to the sky
'Cause our time is right now
We go high, so high, so high
And you know we stand our ground
We raise our hands to the sky
'Cause our time is right now
(Whoa whoa whoa)
Yeah our time is right now
