Higher Ground
Manu-L Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So many things I've left undone
So many rights, so many wrongs
Feels like I've never crossed the line (Oh yeah)
That was right in front of me
I was blind but now I see

And I won't back down
Take me to a higher ground
And you know nothing's gonna stop me now
Got me spinnin round and around
Oooh oh

I won't back down
Take me to a higher ground
And you know nothing's gonna stop me now
Got me spinnin round and around
Oooh oh

I'm not the same no not at all
You gotta stand against the wall
Ready to go and cross the line, oh yeah
I can feel it deep inside
Gonna make it right this time
Now it's all right in front of me
I was blind but now I see

And I won't back down
Take me to a higher ground
And you know nothing's gonna stop me now
Got me spinnin round and around
Oooh oh

I won't back down
Take me to a higher ground
And you know nothing's gonna stop me now
Got me spinnin round and around
Oooh oh

So many things I've left undone
So many rights, so many wrongs
Feels like I've never cross the line (Oh yeah)
That was right in front of me
I was blind but now I see

And I won't back down
Take me to a higher ground
And you know nothing's gonna stop me now
Got me spinnin round and around
Oooh oh

I won't back down
Take me to a higher ground
And you know nothing's gonna stop me now
Got me spinnin round and around




Oooh oh
I won't back down
