Standing on Higher Ground

I know the truth
 But I can't say
 And I have to turn my head
 And look the other way
 I'm not afraid
 And I won't lie
 As long as I see no wrong
 I won't need to testify
 I see the world
 And I'm looking from a high place
 Way above it all
 Standin' on higher ground
 I breathe the air
 While they're runnin' in a rat race
 Way above it all
 Standin' on higher ground
 I feel the blow
 But I don't speak
 And I have to close my eyes
 Pretending I'm asleep
 Well, I see the tears
 But I don't cry
 As long as I do no wrong
 I don't need an alibi
 I see the world
 And I'm looking from a high place
 Way above it all
 Standin' on higher ground
 I breathe the air
 While they're runnin' in a rat race
 Way above it all
 Standing on higher ground
 Way above it all
 Way above it all
 Oh, standing on higher ground
 Way above it all
 Way above it all
 Oh, standing on higher ground
 I see the world (way above it all)
 And I'm looking from a high place (way above it all)
 Way above it all
 Standing on higher ground (way above it all)
 I breathe the air (way above it all)
 While they're runnin' in a rat race (way above it all)
 Way above it all (oh)
 Standin' on higher (way above it all)
 I see the world (way above it all)
 And I'm looking from a high place (way above it all)
 Way above it all (ah, oh)
 Standin' on higher (way above it all)
 I breathe the air (way above it all, I breathe the air)
 While they're runnin' in a rat race (way above it all)
 (Runnin' in a rat race)
 Way above it all (oh, oh)
 Standin' on higher ground (whoa!)
