Higher Ground ft. ellipsi. Lyrics

On the bottom, on the bottom floor

Surrounded by all these problems

Remembering Your promise, Lord

You said ask, so I'm knocking on the door

In the fight of my life, leaning on my church fam

Played with fire, no surprise that it burned back

Can't lie, many times I've been hurt bad

If I was down any lower, I'd be taking a dirt nap

Matter fact, I'm so tired of being slept on

Had my hand out just to get stepped on

Thought I was tough, no teflon

Try to leave it all on the floor, onto the next song

Praising through the pain like the psalms say

But that don't mean I have no dark days

I was on the broad way, destination park place

Then I got hit by a car, now they call me Scarface

Got these scars upon my heart

Had such an awful start

Always straying from the flock

It's beyond dark, I need a spark

Sometimes it feels like God isn't listening

Waking up just to sin again

Never said I was innocent

Cold world outside I know it feels like nobody cares

Look around, life isn't fair

Tell me, God are you really there?

I'm so sick of religious cliches

All of your convictions bring shame

None of your opinions can save

It's no place to live in disgrace

Man, please don't get me started

I just want to live for God and hit all the targets

Made mistakes along the way and I'm really sorry

But never sent invitations out for a pity party

I got enough pressure to deal with

That I could care less if you feel this

Just another villain in need of some healing

From down below, I'm looking up to the ceiling

I got these scars upon my heart

Had such an awful start

Always straying from the flock

Aye, it's beyond dark, I need a spark

Sometimes it feels like God isn't listening

Waking up just to sin again

Never said I was innocent

Cold world outside I know it feels like nobody cares

Look around, life isn't fair

Tell me, God are you really there?

Sometimes it feels like I am all alone

Even when Your name I call upon

So broken in my corazon

I'm feeling so down in the final round

God, I need to turn my life around

I'm looking up for higher ground
