Red Hot Chili Peppers - Higher Ground lyrics

People, keep on learnin'
Soldiers, keep on warrin'
The world, keep on turnin'
'Cause it won't be too long
A powers will keep on lyin'
While your people will keep on dyin'
The world, keep on turnin'
'Cause it won't be too long

I'm so darn glad he let me try it again
'Cause my last time on Earth I
Lived a whole world of sin
I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then
Gonna keep on tryin' 'til I
Reach the highest ground

A-teachers, a-keep on teachin'
A-preachers, a-keep on preachin'
World, keep on turnin'
'Cause it won't be too long (oh no)
Lovers, a-keep on lovin'
While believers keep on believin'
Sleepers, just stop sleepin'
'Cause it won't be too long, oh no

I'm so darn glad he let me try it again
'Cause my last time on Earth I
Lived a whole world of sin
I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then
Gonna keep on tryin' 'til I
Reach the highest ground

And Stevie knows that, uh
Nobody's gonna bring me down
('Til I reach the highest ground)
'Cause me and Stevie, see
We're gonna be sailing on
The funky funky sound
('Til I reach the highest ground)
Bustin' out, and I'll break you out
'cause I'm sailing on
('Til I reach the highest ground)
Just, uh, sailin' on
Sailin' on to higher ground
('Til I reach the highest ground)
