🎶 Higher Ground song analysis

The protagonist reflects on the state of the world, where people are learning and soldiers are fighting, while powers continue to lie and people continue to die. He is grateful for the chance to try again, as he has learned and grown since his last time on Earth. He knows he must keep trying until he reaches the highest land. He will sail to a "funky sound" and "break out" as he strives to reach the highest level.
