Stand up-will you believe it
Stand up
Just a face in the crowd
Feeling lost, down and out
Can you hear me now
Millions more just like you
Afraid to do what they wanna do
Am I getting through
Lots of losers hangin' round
Only there to bring you down
Get your feet up off the ground
Get up! get up! get up!
(Chorus)
If you don't stand
For something
You will fall for anything
If you don't stand
for something
You will fall eor anything
Get up!
don't you know that you're worth
As much as anyone on earth
you're a mega star
put your hands in the sky
Let your freaky colors fly
Get 'em way up high
You've got style and you've got game
So get it out don't be ashamed
Let everybody know your name
(Chorus)
Breathe with me, come on, breathe
you could stand for peace
You could stand for war
I stand in the sqware I never stood before
I take a stand for my son like Alfina Shakur
I take a stand like I'm 46664
Stand alone in my struggle
Can't make me stand down
Mak'em crash and burn (mayday mayday)
Get up! Stand up! Get your damn hands up
If they're not shackeled to your feet get some handcuffs
We need solutions not propaganda
Let the tape roll
Make the whole world stand up
Hold your positions
Don't go backwords
X still grinding
The west keep shining
Don't look too long
You might get blinded
Follow your heart
You're head might just find it
I pray for the strenth to handle what my city brings
Better stand for something or you're bound to fall for anything
(Chorus)
Everybody's got a voice
Now's the time to make some noise
Let me hear ya now
Get up!
