[Intro] Your thoughts are not my thoughts Your roads are higher than mine [Verse 1] I drew a map from the dust on the floor Measured the distance, demanded the door Built every answer with steel in my hand Then watched it collapse when I thought I could stand I called my angle the final decree Made a small throne out of certainty But the sky keeps opening past what I know And the farther I climb, the less I control [Pre-Chorus] Higher than the ridges Deeper than the sea What I cannot measure Still can carry me [Chorus] Your ways are higher, higher than mine Your thoughts run deeper than the edge of the sky I bring my questions, you bring the dawn When my road breaks down, your road carries on Higher, higher, I release the fight What I see is small in the width of your sight [Verse 2] I rap through the wreckage of plans I defended Count every promise I thought had been ended You see the whole field while I stare at one stone You turn a dead end into something unknown No, I do not need to hold every thread No, I do not need to know what comes next The pride in my chest keeps demanding a sign But mercy moves farther than the limits of mind [Breakdown] Not my height Not my frame Not my road Not my name Lift my eyes Break the scale When my wisdom fails Your purpose will prevail [Chorus] Your ways are higher, higher than mine Your thoughts run deeper than the edge of the sky I bring my questions, you bring the dawn When my road breaks down, your road carries on Higher, higher, I release the fight What I see is small in the width of your sight [Bridge] I will not worship what I understand I will trust the unseen work of your hands Every closed gate, every unanswered prayer Can still be held inside your wider care [Final Chorus] Your ways are higher, higher than mine Your thoughts run deeper than the edge of the sky I bring my questions, you bring the dawn When my road breaks down, your road carries on Higher, higher, above what I planned I surrender the map, I trust where you stand [Outro] As high as the heavens rise over the ground So far are your ways from the roads I have found Your thoughts are higher than mine
