[Intro]
We got a higher calling, yeah

[Chorus: Jill Scott]
It's like, I treasure each night
To know that you exist
In the midst of all this shit
Mmm, you are my higher calling

[Justin Scott]
Pick up when I call ya, I'ma be there in a second
Need directions when you get this message, somethin's goin on
Earlier this mornin, had a feelin that we might've hit the ceiling
And our purpose ain't fulfillin in this home, so
Maybe, we should take some time on it
Put a groove on, and bump and grind on it
And get our mind right, the stars align like our very vessels
And I know that we ain't planets but I'm knowin somethin special
Comes from callin heaven, dialin seven's, waitin on a pickup
Stomach bigger, skin is glowin, girl I love yo' figure!
This is simple, this is REAL, somethin' to remember
HAD to hit ya, so we could blend such a lovely mixture

[Chorus: Jill Scott]
It's like, I treasure each night
To know that you exist
In the midst of all this shit
Mmm, you are my higher calling

[Justin Scott]
("Hello?") Pick up when I call ya, I was starvin for your garden
And I heard that you was thirsty, this is perfect, I got water
We could plant a seed and grow it, won't nobody know it
'Til you showin, overflowin, overdoin, double soulin, hey
This ain't 'bout no bill collectors askin you for time
Sallie Mae can't get connected when you on this line
This is private, this a island, this is more than being worth it
This is callin when yo' lights go out and they start back workin
This is unexpected, such a blessing, had to tell you to express it
You wouldn't FEEL it if I text it
No emojis were selected, because I'm serious 'bout this here
Signal strong, I'm clear about this here

[Chorus: Jill Scott]
It's like, I treasure this hike
To know that you exist
In the midst of all this shit
Mmm, you are my higher calling

[Outro: Justin Scott]
Hydration, meditation, elevation
Celebration, levitation, this is danger
Higher calling, higher calling
Oooh, we got a higher calling, higher calling

(Higher calling)
(Higher)
[Jill Scott:] I treasure when I'm on the line
(Higher)
