You Never Knew What These Misunderstood Songs Were Really About

‘Higher’ – Creed

One of 1999’s biggest hits, Creed’s “Higher” has gone on to be the band’s signature song, and is emblematic of the post-grunge rock scene of the time. While on the surface the song seems to likely either be about a drug-induced high or (on the opposite side of the spectrum) Creed’s publicized Christianity, it’s actually about neither.
