Jake Emlyn - Higher Than Us (Official Video)
Stream:
When we look around at the world we see a lot of quarrel and hypocrisy. It seems to have always been this way and it’s hard to know how it will change. This song “Higher Than Us“ by Jake Emlyn is asking a simple question. “Could it be that the solution to our worldly problems is Higher Than Us?“
The video by Kavi-Karnapura Das features the Hip Hop dancing duo “Krishna Twins“ and depicts a mad world of advertising and greed which is contrasted by spiritual elements to visually pose the same question “Is it Higher Than Us?“
The song and video hopes to leave the audience contemplating this question, offering a tangible solution to life’s difficulties in the final verse for those who are inclined to find the answer.

Мы видим много ссор и лицемерия в этом мире. Так было всегда и трудно понять, как это может поменяться.
Трек Higher than us задает простой вопрос - “Может быть решение наших мирских проблем находится на более высоком уровне? Выше чем мы - Higher than us?
Видео сделал Kavi-Karnapura Das - в нем показыван танцевальный дуэт в стиле хип-хоп “Krishna Twins”.
Ролик изображает безумный мир рекламы и жадности, контрастирующий с духовными элементами, чтобы визуально поставить тот же вопрос: “Это выше, чем мы?“
Надеемся что трек и видео заставит аудиторию задуматься над этим вопросом, предлагая осязаемое решение жизненных трудностей в последнем куплете для тех, кто склонен найти ответ.

LYRICS:
I can feel the shift,
In consciousness through all of us and I can see clear
The tools we need to change the world are all already here
A change of heart’s the place to start
Can I ask you something? Look in my eyes
Are you really satisfied?
With all of these fantasies ballin in clubs
All of this *** will never bring love
All of these cheaters will never bring trust
All of this Maya will never break us
Ropes woven of wicked deeds, our pockets swollen, our sickness breeds
The prostitutes of our mundane talks
Infect us all, we’re summoned towards
So much sex and so much money, all the drink and all the drugs
So much envy, no compassion, only fear but there’s no love
Seems no matter what we get it’s like were always wanting more
Makes me wonder what it is that we’re really searching for
Oh is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Take me back home
Is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Take me back home
I grew up on Hip Hop
If I was in another town it could have been Trip Rock
That’s not the real me, the real me is not
An accumulation of material ideas
That’s just this block in this life here
I’m quite scared feeling like I’m living in a nightmare
Part of me knows that I’m more than they see
Part of me fears that I’m less than they hope
Part of me sees that it’s not about me
The other parts telling that part it’s my show
I’m contradicted though
Cos I know my need to be a hero is false ego
A claustrophobic soul, holding on to the noose of a rope and I won’t let go
So much sex and so much money, all the drink and all the drugs
So much envy, no compassion, only fear but there’s no love
Seems no matter what we get it’s like were always wanting more
Makes me wonder what it is thst we’re really searching for
Oh is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Take me back home
Is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Take me back home
I know you’re scared
But out of your vulnerability comes strength
I know this system has torn us to bits and we’re victims but don’t worry about them
Democracies gone demon crazy but there’s hope don’t be fooled
Cos though they’re controlling us right now, we’re all controlled by nature’s rules
If there’s a common cause
That means we can change the course
If we don’t want the applause and we recognise the source
Been suffering for so long and so warn out from all this fear
That we never asked ourselves
What if there’s no real happiness here?
Oh is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Take me back home
Is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Is it Higher Higher Than Us?
Take me back home
