Music A heart can be broken, a heart can despair But a heart that is open will climb up the stairs Looking for a higher love Music We all want a higher love Music Frederick Douglass, you're my hero Cause nothing could keep you down, nothing could keep you down Music Sometimes I feel so ashamed When I can't get back up again I don't stand up despite the pain And I don't walk on despite my reach You had a high love Music You had a high love Music Read were the first words of the prophet Read just like Frederick Douglass Read like my mother told me Read He wrote on stone and he wrote in the sand He held the words right in his hand To illuminate, emancipate his beautiful mind He had a high love He had a high love Music He had a high love Music Read were the first words of the prophet Read just like Frederick Douglass Read like my mother told me Read just like Frederick Douglass Oh, Frederick Douglass, you're my hero Cause nothing could keep you down Nothing could keep you down He had a high love High love, a high love Higher love, a higher love Higher love, a higher love Oh, let's just try to be kind Let's try to be kind Let's try to be kind Let's try to be kind Read with the first words of the prophet Read just like Frederick Douglass Read like my mother told me Read just like Frederick Douglass Oh, Frederick Douglass, you're my hero He walked on water He walked on water He walked on water He walked on water He walked on water Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
