Red Hot Chili Peppers - Higher Ground Lyrics






People
Keep on learnin'
Soldiers
Keep on warrin'
World,
Keep on turnin'
Cause it won't be too long.
Powers
Keep on lyin',
While your people
Keep on dyin'
World,
Keep on turnin',
Cause it won't be too long.

Chorus:

I'm so darn glad He let me try it again,
'Cause my last time on earth I lived a whole world of sin.
I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then.
Gonna keep on tryin' till I reach the highest ground.

Teachers,
Keep on teachin'
Preachers,
Keep on preachin',
World, keep on turnin',
'Cause it won't be too long.
Oh, no
Lovers,
Keep on lovin'
While believers
Keep on believin'.
Sleepers,
Just stop sleepin'
'Cause it won't be too long.
Oh, no!

Chorus

(Spoken) An' Stevie knows that, uh, no-body's gonna bring me down.
Till I reach the highest ground.
(Spoken) 'cause me 'n' Stevie, see, we're gonna be a sailin' on the funky sound
Till I reach the highest ground.
(Spoken) Bustin' out, an I'll break you out, 'cause I'm sailin' on.
Till I reach the highest ground
(Spoken)Just, uh, sailin' on sailin' on the higher ground
Till I reach the highest ground

  32. V.... H....

    The Cover is way better than the original in my opinion

    V.... H....

    Absolutely! Kind of like how Metallica's Am I Evil completely shreds the Diamond Head original..

  33. G.... M....

    People keep on learnin' 
    Soldiers keep on warrin' 
    World keep on turnin' 
    'Cause it won't be too long

    Powers keep on lyin' 
    While your people keep on dyin' 
    World keep on turnin' 
    'Cause it won't be too long

    I'm so darn glad he let me try it again 
    'Cause my last time on earth I lived a whole world of sin 
    I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then 
    Gonna keep on tryin' 
    Till I reach my highest ground

    Teachers keep on teachin'

    An' Stevie knows that nobody's gonna bring me down
    Till I reach the highest ground, 'cause me 'n' Stevie, see
    We're gonna be a sailin' on the funky, funky sound (till I reach the highest ground)
    Bustin' out and I'll break you out, 'cause I'm sailin' on
    (Till I reach the highest ground)
    Just sailin' on, sailin' on the higher ground (till I reach the highest ground)

  34. B.... S....

    The karate kid brought me here.. ☝️

  35. C.... C....

    those drums sound like garbage, way too much compression.

  36. C.... J....

    Frusciante's razor-sharp funk guitar is brutal here. Hillel Slovak would have been proud.

  37. b.... ....

    One of the best remakes you will EVER hear!

  38. N.... ....

    Listened to this while skydiving

  39. M.... S....

    Anyone here seen Center Stage?

  40. P.... S....

    Now this is how you pay homage to a legend like Stevie. 💯

  41. R.... V....

    Power Rangers anyone???

  42. M.... h....

    Its morphin time😋

  43. �.... ....

    dont it suck when a song is banned on Soundcloud in America

  44. p.... g....

    SAMCRO - REAPER

  45. J.... ....

    You ooz you lose

  46. M.... C....

    the original slaps way harder.

  47. J.... B....

    I hate Stevie wonder ( mostly because my family plays his music to death) but this a great cover. And I’m usually not into cover songs

  48. J.... H....

    RHCP-->They did what they needed to DO to THIS SONG... Ya..

  49. G.... D....

    The bass in the beginning though.

  50. H.... 6....

    0:01 Seinfeld vibes

  51. J.... F....

    *ANAKIN:* You underestimate my Power!

    *OBIWAN:* Then I’ll keep on Climbing🎵Keep on Reaching For Higher Ground!🎶

  52. T.... 6....

    Obi Wan's favorite song

  53. p.... 8....

    Where is the real video to the song

  54. h.... t....

    Karate KiD? 😂

  55. A.... a....

    Magical moon azinika from Harry potter’s Theme song

  56. A.... a....

    If. This song telates to a Harry Potter movie comment Ebola and tell me the Harry Potter movie

  57. g.... ....

    https://youtu.be/4wZ3ZG_Wams

  58. C.... D....

    Esse música é demais

  59. R.... C....

    Big Stevie Wonder fan....at first, I was skeptical, but this is an awesome remake.

    R.... C....

    stevie wonder is awesome

  60. T.... F....

    I guess I’m the only one who is not brought here by those shitty power rangers

  61. G.... G....

    The rapture

  62. B.... T....

    I remember the karate kid

  63. M.... M....

    Back when they were hungry ...

  64. A.... T....

    It’s over Anakin

  65. S.... ....

    Ooooh I like this version! Yet, there's nothing quite like the original voices and band. Especially when you're 13 y/o and in a new life! But the ending here is awesome ... where's the fing dance floor!

  66. A.... F....

    Funny enough, but the Peppers' music basically got softer with every album. Compare a headbanger like this to smoother grooves like Californication.

  67. D.... C....

    There's a rugby club somewhere in the UK that plays this as the teams run out onto the pitch - and it sets the atmosphere perfectly.

  68. S.... A....

    Go Go Power Rangers!!!
    Go To Higher Ground!!! :-)

  69. J.... ....

    "That's a lotta air!!"

  70. A.... 1....

    Damn this is a good song! They done a SUPER job covering this!

  71. M.... G....

    Phuck the POWER RANGERS 💯💯💯

  72. a.... ....

    Glo Worm theme song!!!!!!

  73. a.... G....

    Karate kid 2010?

  74. J.... ....

    Red Hot Chilli Potatoes may exist, in a parallel Universe! Sounds tasty! Always loved this tune. Love the bass filter effect.

  75. V.... P....

    Courage for the next day.

  76. E.... S....

    Sometimes, it is, all about the 'bounce'....

  77. T.... ....

    I remember playing this at a house party and having a girl not look up from her phone and say "what the fuck is this shit music?"


    Wasn't necessarily house party music, but regardless I left immediately hahah

  78. N.... ....

    Who Came from Karate Kid ?

  79. s.... m....

    Skydiving with a snowboard doing flips and shit. Nice

  80. R.... V....

    I’m here from the Power Rangers movie.

  82. M.... O....

  88. C.... E....
