We Go High - Mavis Staples

We go high

When they go low

I know they don’t know

What they’re doing

When they tell their lies

Spread around rumors

I know they’re still human

And they need my love

Gonna stand side by side

Our hearts in command

Love as our guide

We go high

When they go low

I know they don’t know

What they’re doing

Oh, I have a mind

To bury them whole

When they go low

To tell you the truth

I wait for the time

When we are all brothers

Holding each other

Heaven on earth

Gonna stand side by side

Our hearts in command

Love as our guide

Oh we go high

When they go low

I know they don’t know

What they’re doing

We go high

When they go low

I know they don’t know

What they’re doing

They tell their lies

Spread around rumors

I know they’re still human

And they need my love

Gonna stand side by side

Our hearts in command

Love as our guide

We go high

When they go low

I know they don’t know

What they’re doing
