The Briggs - Back To Higher Ground lyrics

I'm introduced to a plague of ignorance Might be my own but I can't be too sure Looking to be rescued with no sign of deliverance That can't exist, it can't exist Hearts can grow so cold in the heat of the moment It freezes over like the devil's abode Don't look so troubled You're the salt of the Earth now We can't regress, we can't regress Back to higher ground Reaching up, we won't back down Back to higher ground Reaching up, we won't back down Back to higher ground Hope can dry up like the LA river But droughts never last forever A thirst for more is just human nature We can't regress, no we can't regress Socially conscious of self-consciously social Show my true colors like a waving flag Make up in strife for direction that I lack

We can't regress, we can't regress Back to higher ground Reaching up, we won't back down Back to higher ground Reaching up, we won't back down Back to higher ground Dancing on their grave To the sound of savage victory With the power we possess We can't regress, we can't regress Sing a song of freedom, Pay homeage to the fathers That paved the way for sonic liberty A note that rings so true in all of us We can't regress, We can't regress Back to higher ground Reaching up, we won't back down Back to higher ground Reaching up, we won't back down Back to higher ground Reaching up, we won't back down Back to higher ground Reaching up, we won't back down
