Derek Minor - Higher Lyrics

[Verse 1:]
I came in the game stuntin' on my haters
Who would know I'd be praying for them years later?
Man, was a rider went from being most wanted
To signed to a label whose music is most wanted
Some would say I came up, finally built my name up
You doing pretty good, why you changing everything up?
Let me explain, I've been forced through adversity
I'll school you to the rules, it's Derek Minor University
(1) Keep God at the center of your plans
(2) Family is important, so be a man
Life is more than whip-whippin' in the Benz
And if they see you wrong then you better clean the lens
I never planned to be on entertainment
'Cause my family in the hood, y'all ain't seein' the pictures, I'm here to paint it
You lookin' for that bubblegum candy-coated, I ate it
I gotta keep it real 'cause the truth you can't replace it

[Hook:]
So climb aboard this plane please let me take you higher
Let me take you higher
Let me take you higher
There'll probably be some turbulence but let me take you higher
Let me take you higher
Let me take you higher
We know who's in control and I bet he take us higher
Bet he take us higher
Bet he take us higher
PSA Volume 3, let my symphony take you higher
And I'm no longer PRo, introducing Derek Minor

[Verse 2:]
Ok I'm puttin' on for my city, New Jerus my home boy
You can find me in Chat-town, in Cashville I roam, boy
Shout out to BJ, the mayor of M-Town
RMG, Reach Records, we shut this thing down
What a world that we livin' in, I'm a let you know about it
Dirty where we work, this time I flow about it
My people going to jail, they ain't got no hope about it
So I'm screamin' out Jesus, my faith in his throne around it
116 what I claim, man we sorta like a gang
'Cause we rep our set proud in the lanes where I stay
Yellin' God over money, shot the Bizzle in the H
And my name may have changed but the mission's still the same
The Lord told me he making me something greater
Scales gone from my eyes, I see the Savior
If you don't like where I'm going, then give me prayer
But I prefer you ride, let's see where this journey take you

[Hook:]
So climb aboard this plane please let me take you higher
Let me take you higher
Let me take you higher
There'll probably be some turbulence but let me take you higher
Let me take you higher
Let me take you higher
We know who's in control and I bet he take us higher
Bet he take us higher
Bet he take us higher
PSA Volume 3, let my symphony take you higher
And I'm no longer PRo, introducing Derek Minor
