you might just need a good tune up if that dont fix it check your fuel filter if that is good then get some throttle body cleaner and clean that out and if your still not good have your injectors cleaned and worst case senario you might have weak ignition elements

You should check if the clutch is still OK. When it gets worn out, the engine 'races' to high revs ( with high pitch) when you accelerate. When driving without much load on the engine, that is, for example, coasting on the straight and a higher speed, the engine will sound fine but try to accelerate harder and the 'revving up' will show up again.
