Tomara - Higher Road

I was living life for me
I just turned 23
Didn't know where I was going
But that's when he found me

Took me in with a voice
And a melody so sweet
Colorful past of wrongs
With a chance to paint it differently
A reason for his rules
Although I never seem to follow
Consequences always chasing me
We're a hard pill to swallow
On that sunny Sunday morning
Church choir singing loud and clear
We've got a greater life for ya child
Listen now with open ears

Two wrongs won't make a right
But three rights will make a left
If you try to make it quick
You will come full circle with regret
Try to map this journey out
But you get there when you get there
Stay the course
No matter how slow
There ain't no shortcuts
On the higher road
On the higher road

Every night I masquerade in the city of Angels
Every day is a battle that I fight with myself
Drinks and dancing to disguise all the demons
Trying to take me from my purpose
And take away my reason
My light is shining brighter with every right choice
Feeding my fire and strengthening my voice

Two wrongs won't make a right
But three rights will make a left
And if you try to make it quick
you will come full circle with regret
Try to map this journey out
but you get there when you get there
Stay the course
No matter how slow
There ain't no shortcuts
On the higher road
On the higher road

The temptation of tomorrow
Taking away the beauty of today
The thought of flying to touch the sky
But your wings won't carry all of your weight

Two wrongs won't make a right
But three rights will make a left
And if you try to make it quick
You will come full circle with regret
Try to map this journey out
But you get there when you get there
Stay the course
No matter how slow
There ain't no shortcuts
On the higher road
On the higher road
