[Verse 1]
I came up through the smoke and the cold
Bare hands, brave heart, heavy load
You held me tight when my faith got thin
Said, "look at the sky, we gon' win"
We was down bad, still kept the light
Prayin' in the dark, tryna make it right
Every scar on me, you kissed it clean
Now I see the plan in the pain between
[Pre-Chorus]
I was lost in the pressure
You pulled me higher
You pulled me higher
When the world got heavier
[Chorus]
Higher love, take me higher
Higher love, burn like fire
We beat the odds, we still alive
With your hand in mine, we rise, we rise
Higher love, take me higher
Higher love, make me brighter
All these storms tried to break my soul
But we came up whole
[Verse 2]
Now I walk with a crown in my chest
Not from gold, from the way we passed the test
Had to lose some friends, had to leave that cage
Turn my tears to fuel, turn my fear to rage
You my blessing when the night get long
You the prayer in the words of my favorite song
We ain’t perfect, but we faithful, yeah
Every wrong turn led us right here, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
I was buried in pressure
You pulled me higher
You pulled me higher
Now the scars look like diamonds
[Chorus]
Higher love, take me higher
Higher love, burn like fire
We beat the odds, we still alive
With your hand in mine, we rise, we rise
Higher love, take me higher
Higher love, make me brighter
All these storms tried to break my soul
But we came up whole
[Bridge]
If the road turn steep, stay close
If the night get deep, don't fold
I been built from pain, I know
We can bloom where the ashes go
[Final Chorus]
Higher love, take me higher
Higher love, burn like fire
We beat the odds, we still alive
With your hand in mine, we rise, we rise
Higher love, take me higher
Higher love, make me brighter
All these storms tried to break my soul
But we came up whole
