Yes I was abused
Feeling so wronged
Didn't realize, oh, I could be strong
I knew I had the responsibility
To take it to a higher place
I knew I had the power
I had to dance again

Ohhhh, I went down, down
Ohh, I was down, I was down down
Take it to a higher place
I want to take you there
Take me to a higher place to dance

Now I'm walking on air
I'm skipping on stones
But we only got here
Walking on other women's bones
I know I am scared
And I wanna be strong
We have nothing to fear
We're not walking alone
We'll take it to a higher place

I remember the shame
It never felt right
I only know, oh, we have to fight
The battles that incite a riot in us
Taking the truth, deny it to us
I know we have the power
We have to dance again

Ohhhh, I went down, down
Ohh, I went down, I went down down
Take me to a higher place
I want to take you there
Take me to a higher place to dance

Now I'm walking on air
I'm skipping on stones
But we only got here
Walking on other women's bones
I know I am scared
And I wanna be strong
We have nothing to fear
We're not walking alone
We'll take it to a higher place

Now I'm walking on air
I'm skipping on stones
But we only got here
Walking on other women's bones
I know I am scared
And I wanna be strong
We have nothing to fear
We're not walking alone

We'll take it to a higher place
We'll take it to a higher place
We'll take it to a higher place
We'll take it to a higher place
(To a higher place, ooooh)
