There would have been no better song to start this EP with, than Higher. This song not only came from the deepest parts of her heart but also gives us an in-depth into who Dami is and how far she has come.

To knock me off my feet,
But I am solid and I've got the master key.

“When it gets tough just kneel and pray
He'll be like, tell me what you want, girl I got you
I'll be like take all of my pain, I don't want it
He'll be like, tell me what you want, girl I got you
I'll be like take all of my shame, keep me happy
I just want to wake up (ahhh) come a-live.”
The lyrics to this song is completely explicit, with a very cool and calming sound easing her listeners into a trance of Hope and inert connection with something bigger than all of us.

3. READY.
This very strong and emotional piece brings out the strength and realness in Dami. The lyrics point to a lady who is ready for something serious with a lover  who keeps telling lies and plays with her feelings. She explains in this song how she would not be part of his games.

I don't want none of these games
Are you out or are you in
Tell me do you get the message

Used turn up till the morning comes.”

A slow and cool vibe but yet strongly relaxing.

On this rocky road, I have doubts, but I ride still.”
