[Jim Johnston, Nicole Tranquillo - Higher lyrics]
Oh, oh, keep reachin' yeah
When you look into your heart
And ask yourself what's true (Okay)
You know there's nothin' in this
World that you can't do
Now I'm lookin' at the world
A shape with different eyes
Then I keep reachin' higher
Gonna touch the sky
Keep reachin' higher keep reachin' higher
Keep reachin' higher keep reachin' higher
Keep reachin'
You can't hide the truth in here
Behind your eyes, I see the fear
You try so hard to look so strong
But, you're in a place that you don't belong
And in those eyes, I realize
I see the lies, tears wanna come
They see trouble on the rise
And now I'm gonna help you buy some
You got no time, got no rhyme
Got no shine, and now you're mine
I'm your penance, I'm your fine
I'm your judge and you're the crime
Got carried up, up, up, up and away
In a silly Cinderella fantasy (yeah)
Your time is up, man, It's a lie
That no one will ever, I mean ever, ever buy
(Uh) so now it's payback, blackjack (Uh)
Roll the dice, but stay back (yeah)
You're in a hole so deep
You will never, like, ever
Ever find your way back
I'm the future, you're the past
Your light is fadin', like, stupid fast (Woo)
Fifteen minutes, here and gone
Oops, think your career is overdrawn
When you look into your heart
And ask yourself what's true (Okay)
You know there is nothin' in this
World that you can't do
Now I'm lookin' at the world
A shape with different eyes
Then I keep reachin' higher
Gonna touch the sky
Keep reachin' higher keep reachin' higher
Keep reachin' higher keep reachin' higher
Keep reachin' (yeah)
Bottoms up, now it's my time (yeah)
'Cause you're up away and gone, flat line
I wrote a book about your life
The rise and fall, it took no time
(yeah, yeah, yeah)
But, you can't read me 'cause
It's way too steep (No)
Story's long, and crazy deep
And it's got big words that don't come cheap
(Uh, uh, uh) i lived it all, I got the call
To break the wall, you had to fall
I had to take it, yeah
I did everything I had to make it
My shine is so fine
A ho like you might go blind
You got no time, it's tickin' down
Say goodbye, don't make a sound (Shh)
She said she was so fine, but
Penny on the dollar, duh-duh dumb
And every job will have a deck
Yeah, you had yours, now you're in my way
But, it's been fun, I gotta run
Um, what's your name again? 'Cause, I forgot
When you look into your heart
And ask yourself what's true (yeah)
You know there's nothin' in this
World that you can't do
Now I'm lookin' at the world
A shape with different eyes
Then I keep reachin' higher
Gonna touch the sky
Keep reachin' higher
Keep reachin' higher (yeah, yeah)
Keep reachin' higher (yeah)
Keep reachin' higher (yeah) keep reachin'
When you look into your heart
And ask yourself what's true (Okay, okay)
You know there's nothin' in this
World that you can't do (Okay, okay)
Now I'm lookin' at the world
A shape with different eyes
Then I keep reachin' higher
Gonna touch the sky
Keep reachin' higher (Okay)
Keep reachin' higher
Keep reachin' higher (yeah, yeah)
Keep reachin' higher (yeah)
Keep reachin' higher (Uh)
Keep reachin' higher
Keep reachin' higher (yeah, yeah)
Keep reachin' higher keep reachin'
