Verse 1

Everybody, and the way they look at me

Like I'm some kind of rebel

What do they know about my life

And the world I'm living

You know that people, are allowed their freedom, and identity

Don't let 'em tie you to the railings of conformity



Chorus

Rise up from the ways

(Rise up from the ways)

To a higher place

(To a higher place)

See the skies above

(See the skies above)

What was once beloved!



Verse 2

Take me to the angels, see what the good book says

Take me to the farmers, for the good lands sake

Take me to the land where a woman can be who she can

Is there anything left to die for

Prophets and Martyrs, I heard IT ALL BEFORE

IS there anything left to believe in anymore?



Chorus





Verse 3

In the city, the melody can get so low

In the city, the people seem to walk so slow

Just remember, there's a place inside, we all need to go



Chorus



Adlib

(Take me to a higher place)

(Take me to the land where a woman can be who she can)
