Higher Ground
Rising Above: Embracing Redemption in 'Higher Ground'
Lyrics
Well I have my history
Reflecting on personal experiences and past events
My skeletons that I must keep
Referring to hidden or secret troubles and difficulties
I’ve been foolish, I’ve been wrong
Acknowledging past errors or poor decisions
But it’s something that I’ve been working on
Working on self-improvement despite past mistakes
This rain keeps bucketing down and this storm keeps knocking me around
Struggling through hardships and challenges
There’s been so many times I could have given up and drowned
Feeling close to giving up or succumbing to difficulties
But I’m holding out believing
Maintaining hope and faith despite adversity
Searching for that higher ground
Striving for a better situation or mindset
I’ve had my share of mistakes
Recognizing past errors or missteps
And they’re choices that I’ve made
Taking ownership of one's choices, whether good or bad
I’ve been foolish, oh I’ve been wrong
Admitting to being foolish or mistaken in the past
But it’s something that I’ve been working on
Demonstrating an effort to improve oneself
This rain keeps bucketing down and this storm keeps knocking me around
Continuing to face ongoing challenges and difficulties
There’s been so many times I could have given up and drowned
Feeling the temptation to surrender or be overwhelmed
But I’m holding out believing
Having faith and optimism despite hardships
Searching for that higher ground
Seeking a better situation or state of being
This rain keeps bucketing down and this storm keeps knocking me around
Enduring persistent hardships and adversity
There’s been so many times I could have given up and drowned
Experiencing moments where giving up seems plausible
But I’m holding out believing
Persevering with hope and conviction
Searching for that higher ground
Striving for personal improvement and progress
