[Verse 1]
Boots hit stone at dawn
Pack strap on my shoulder
Cold air in my lungs
Trail wind getting bolder
Pine sap on my hands
Mud on the laces
Every turn I take
Feels like earned places
[Pre-Chorus]
Up past the switchbacks
Heart on the climb
One more ridge line
One more sign
[Chorus]
Take me higher
Take me higher
I can taste the sky
At the top, at the top
Take me higher
Take me higher
All that waiting behind
When I see that view alive
[Verse 2]
Loose rock under heel
Sun pulls through the branches
Water in my flask
Little breathless chances
Stone face, open sky
Legs burning, still moving
Every step I’ve paid
Keeps the whole world proving
[Pre-Chorus]
Up past the switchbacks
Heart on the climb
One more ridge line
One more sign
[Chorus]
Take me higher
Take me higher
I can taste the sky
At the top, at the top
Take me higher
Take me higher
All that waiting behind
When I see that view alive
[Bridge]
Then the trees fall low
And the world goes wide
Rivers like silver
Cutting through the side
I stand still a minute
Hands on my knees
Nothing but sky
And all of these
[Final Chorus]
Take me higher
Take me higher
I can taste the sky
At the top, at the top
Take me higher
Take me higher
All that waiting behind
When I see that view alive
Take me higher
Take me higher
I was made for this climb
At the top, at the top
