Lyrics
[Intro] Yeah, we came up from the floor Now the whole room wants more [Verse 1] I kept the receipt from the days they ignored me Dust on the laces, still walked like they saw me Mama said, “Build it, don’t wait for permission” Now every closed door is part of the vision I learned how to carry the weight in a whisper Turned every setback to fuel for the picture No borrowed shine, no borrowed name I put my hands on the wheel and changed lanes [Pre-Chorus] If you feel that pressure, let it make you brave We didn’t cross this far to turn around today [Chorus] We’re going up, up, up, no ceiling Hands to the sky, you can feel this feeling From the back row straight to the front line We make a little hope hit right on time We’re going up, up, up, keep rising Heart on fire and the whole world’s watching If they ask us where we’re headed tonight Tell them higher, higher, higher tonight [Verse 2] New numbers lighting up the old phone Still keep the same people close to my home I know the difference between loud and real A quiet promise is a promise you feel Made a map out of all my mistakes Put every mile in the moves that I make Now when the doubt tries calling my name I let it ring while I step through the flame [Pre-Chorus] If you feel that pressure, let it make you brave We didn’t cross this far to turn around today [Chorus] We’re going up, up, up, no ceiling Hands to the sky, you can feel this feeling From the back row straight to the front line We make a little hope hit right on time We’re going up, up, up, keep rising Heart on fire and the whole world’s watching If they ask us where we’re headed tonight Tell them higher, higher, higher tonight [Bridge] No, we don’t need a perfect road Just one more step with the load we hold Every scar is a mark that says We kept moving anyway [Final Chorus] We’re going up, up, up, no ceiling Hands to the sky, you can feel this feeling From the back row straight to the front line We make a little hope hit right on time We’re going up, up, up, keep rising Heart on fire and the whole world’s watching If they ask us where we’re headed tonight Tell them higher, higher, higher tonight [Outro] Higher tonight Still rising Higher tonight
