All this gravity trying to keep its hold on me
You can't keep me down
The weight of the world it seems heavy handed crushing dreams
You can't keep me down
Are you gonna make your bed and lay where they've told you to stay?
I won't shrink back I won't sit down
It's not for me I'm not about it
Like a raging fire I'm only burning brighter
I won't be stuck here where I stand without a doubt it's sinking sand
I got too much desire
I wanna get higher
I wanna get higher
I wanna get higher than this
Fear creeps in night and day trying to take my breath away
You can't keep me down
Voices calling out you can't do this now
You can't keep me down
If they tell me to stay they better get out of my way
I won't shrink back I won't sit down
It's not for me I'm not about it
Like a raging fire I'm only burning brighter
I won't be stuck here where I stand without a doubt it's sinking sand
I got too much desire
I wanna get higher
I wanna get higher
I wanna get higher than this
I wanna get higher
I wanna get higher
I wanna get higher than this
I wanna get higher
I wanna get higher
I wanna get higher than this
