Higher Law

If I was your leader I would do my best To keep that residue off my chest I would gather my congress. I wouldn't hesitate 'Cause there's a new law and it ain't up for debate The good book says, as far as I can tell Everybody's going to heaven or Help me find out Lord, Gotta find a better way There's a higher law we need to turn to and there's no more time to waste We need to sit right down in the middle of the floor Instead of running all over the place Open up your mind, it's time. We gotta leave those fears behind There's not much time at all y'all, 'cause there's a higher law Just like a magician, make me believe That you ain't got nothin' hidden up your sleeve Then you kill my brother 'cause you don't agree It may make sense to U but it don't to me I say going to church may be a start But the good book is written in your heart Don't you wait for tomorrow It's best you start today There's a higher law we need to turn to and there's no more time to waste We need to sit right down in the middle of the floor Instead of running all over the place Open up your mind, it's time. We gotta leave those fears behind There's not much time at all y'all, 'cause there's a higher law There's a new sun rising, coming over the hill Ain't no use running you'd be better off standing still And don't keep acting like we got to kill 'Cause it's time to go higher, higher, higher There's a higher law A higher law we need to turn to, or we may have to burn thru Unless we choose to learn through, through from our mistakes 'Cause that's sho'nuff what it takes to reach the higher ground To go from lost to found, so when the end times come We'll still be around Just like the song says, I'm talkin' 'bout a higher law Not the judge in city hall Take off your watch 'cause the time is right now. You Ain't Listenin' Anyhow! There's a higher law we need to turn to and there's no more time to waste We need to sit right down in the middle of the floor Instead of running all over the place Open up your mind, it's time. We gotta leave those fears behind There's not much time at all y'all, 'cause there's a higher law --- Higher Law - Victor Wooten
