Love brings a change
I wanna take a chance
And let it grow
I trust my feelings
I wanna be with you
Wherever you go
Oh baby
WeÚFFFF92re more than friends
So precious it should never end
Oh baby
CanÚFFFF92t help but win
Stand up, say it loud
What we need is a lot more love
Stand up, say it loud
What we need is a lotta good good love
Tonight is our turn
We have the opportunity
DonÚFFFF92t be afraid
Want to make you happy
Satisfy the dreams inside our heads
Ooh daylight comes around so fast
I wanna make this evening last
Ooh baby, IÚFFFF92ve given my best
Stand up, say it loud
What we need is a lotta love
Stand up, shout it out
What we need is a lot more love
Ooh baby, new dreams to share
And someone that will truly care
If youÚFFFF92re lonely
I will always be there
Stand up, say it loud
What we need is a lot more love
Stand up, shout it out
The battle cry is getting louder
The countdown's close to the final hour
The enemy is on every side
But still no match for the Crucified
Victory unto victory
We are soldiers in his army
Stand up, take a stand for Jesus
Stand up so the whole world sees us
Showing the way in a world gone astray
Shining our light with all of our might
Stand up, take a stand for Jesus
Stand up so the whole world sees us
Following Him and serving Him
Fighting the fight that we know we will win
Out of our pews and into the streets
Making some use of our beautiful feet
Redeeming the time for the days are evil
This whole world's in such upheaval
We wrestle not with flesh and blood
But when the enemy comes in like a flood
Gotta lay our lives down
And stand up for the truth we've found
Some days you don't understand
All the world looks upside down
When you're trying to be strong
Nothing ever falls in place
Don't give up and let your shadows swallow up your mind
No, that's no way to treat yourself - just leave your doubts behind
Stand up - for what you're fightin' for
Stand up - just don't take anymore
Stand up - for what you're fightin' for my friends
Stand up - for what you're fightin' for
Stand up - some things you can't ignore
Stand Proud - for what your fightin' for my friends
Oh, oh!
When accusations put you down
And people talk behind your back
Turn your head and walk away
Never let them see you frown
Don't give up and let your shadows swallow up your mind
No, that's no way to treat yourself - just leave your doubts behind
Stand up - for what you're fightin' for
Stand up - just don't take anymore
Stand up - for what you're fightin' for my friends
Stand up - for what you're fightin' for
Stand up - some things you can't ignore
Stand Proud - for what your fightin' for my friends
Don't give up and let your shadows swallow up your mind
No, that's no way to treat yourself - just leave your doubts behind
Stand up - for what you're fightin' for
Stand up - just don't take anymore
Stand up - for what you're fightin' for my friends
Stand up - for what you're fightin' for
Stand up - some things you can't ignore
Stand Proud - for what your fightin' for my friends
Stand up - for what you're fightin' for
Stand up - just don't take anymore
Stand up - for what you're fightin' for my friends
Stand up - for what you're fightin' for
Stand up - some things you can't ignore
Stand Proud - for what your fightin' for my friends
Stand up

[Intro]
Ey, I know you done kicked it with a lot of niggaz before
But you ain't never kicked it with a nigga like me
Hey Hey
[Hook]
I see ya baby, throw ya hands up high
If you wanna come and kick it with a stand up guy
Because the rocks go glisten and the drops on 20's
Bend it over let it drop if you wanna roll wit me
I say all my sexy ladies throw ya hands up high
If you wanna come and kick it with a stand up guy
Because it don't get betta, niggaz don't get cheddar
Like that fella in the yellow, purple label ? sweater
[Verse 1]
The stones keep glowin' on my wrist like whoa
And she can't stop lookin' I know ya bitch like those
And she chose, ain't no question if ya bitch might blow
Just get her to the crib and get her whole back so (sore)
I'ma blow my dro', I'ma pop my peel
Ask anybody wanna take a shot, I will
Might see me in a different color drop, hot wheel
With the top down low, and the glock concealed
I got my niggaz who be racing up the block, One mil'
If the police try to chase me you know they a done deal
I got skills, anybody wanna come test
? this .45 will be up in yo chest
A lot of ladies wanna kick it with a nigga so fresh
He could spend a 100k, any day, no stress
The watches is insane, the chain is grotesque
Stay single if you wanna but you gain no cash
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
If you got a man and you're tired of being there
You done gave him too many chances, you're tired of being fair
I give you the opportunity to ride with a playa
You, me, and a couple of freaks in the ride with a playa
Nevermind those outside, when they stare
'Cause the chrome 24's on the ride give a glare
Because of one guy, you decided to share
As long as you having the time of your life, who cares
Man, we all sinners, what matters is in the center
I know god see its hard, and I'm a stand up nigga
You can't beat me 'cause you ain't man enough nigga
I look him in the eye and tell him man up nigga
You really getting money? Throw a grand up nigga
Wanna fight? You should've hit me when you ran up nigga
Really swift, don't waste a hammer, body slam fuck niggaz
Go and kick it with the hoes and throw ya hands up with 'em
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
You ain't know me 'cause I live so special
Try to stay low key but it's still so special
Flat screens in the floor, quarter mil' in the dresser
Jewelry box glowing like I loan on treasure
I'm chillin' with Vanessa, met a girl named Heather
Told her 'Hi, how ya doin'? Buy a drink? My pleasure'
Told her if she got a homegirl go tell her
That I got a hard rug, I could go for-ever
If Vanessa wanna touch it just let her
If she laughed out loud, I'll be shocked if we jus met her
Bought the dro', get low, and its only one-fifth
And it's four peels left, do you wanna come with?
[Hook]
[Intro: Cha Cha]
I, Cha, stand up before y'all
One hand in the sky, other hand over my heart
Vouchin to be the last woman of my breed
Right alongside some niggaz who seem to feel the same way
After all, one who stands for nothin falls for anything
So um, Tre Little why don't you stand up first?
Tell 'em your story
[Verse One: Tre Little]
Yeah, I made my own bed, yeah that's what the judge said
Called me a young punk like he hold grudges
Held up the same knife that I lunge with
The one his lungs hit, I left him breathless
Haha.. "Death is Certain"
But for you to gimme that sentence the system's not workin
Your Honor, understand my pain
It's like I got nothin to lose, and shit to gain
Please, hear me out
Dude doused gasoline my house to get me out
And all I could think about is how we was raised
And - he like the gauge, and - I prefer the nine man
Crime partners, robbin sprees
Ten years plus Your Honor, just him and me
And really - to make a long story short
This nigga tried to eat from my fork
Can't have that
[Chorus: Royce Da 5'9"]
(Stand up) Put your hand on your chest
The other hand in the air, and say that you solemnly swear
When you (stand up) basically
Reach out to the hatin streets, tell 'em to take a seat
After you (stand up) put your hand on your chest
The other hand in the air, and say that you solemnly swear
When you (stand up) they listen now
to a man who's standin demandin respect cause they sittin down
[Verse Two: Cutty Mack]
I was born in this world the most, innocent child
With no worries, expectations, look how I smile
Everybody proud, my household loud
Look what he can do now, gangstas is all around
Couldn't fathom bein touched, by the life they led
Would've rather been in church and touched by Christ instead
I done seen everything from teens turn crack mothers
Robberies led by teens are undercover
And the law, is the same way my homeboy's do
Took the work behind the kitchen sink, hustle was smooth
And the risk never mattered, cause there's strength in fear
Not thinkin beyond the next day I'm gettin this here
And the world don't give a fuck, that's my thinkin
Cause the world don't give a fuck, heavily drinkin
Hit the, block at night when the bars let out
Raw heads'll still hit me 'til they veins dead out
I'm trapped
[Chorus]
[Verse Three: Billy Nix]
I saw four corners, crackheads on two of 'em
Whores on opposite sides; I was 'bout nine or ten
Wonderin why my sisters was lookin like they was homeless (damn)
Cars'll roll up, and they hop in them for a moment
Wasn't later I realized they need a supply
To get it, would take a few minutes, they blow him in his ride
It seems the scenes I've seen with fiends in abundance was
part on some scheme to intervene in the number of
people who make it up out of this life, conspiracy theory
Nah, not quite; but government gotta know somethin
Tell a child we were once unified, he might doubt it
Went from, yellin "Black power" to sniffin white powder
Could it be we wasn't brought here to be free, just subserviant
to those in authority, slowly I'm learnin this
Evolution of the mind defines us as men
My resolution, it's time for revolution to begin
[Chorus]
[Outro: Cha Cha]
Feel me? Nobody respects you for sittin down
Respect is to be earned, it's yours for the takin
Closed mouths don't get fed
Gotta get the wet behind your back
Attack the storm, when it rains it pours
Stand up
I said Welcome to my show
It's just a-you and me baby
We got the whole damn night to go
You're holding out on me, while I'm on fire
If you can't stand the heat, then you should try
Victim of my vices, you know you are
You skate on ice to paradise, stairway to the stars
Stagefright all night, won't you let go
All night Stagefright, on with the show
You come on like a lady dressed to kill
Never thought you could be caught,
but you will
A little understanding, a little love
A headline act around the back,
is what I'm thinkin' of
Stagefright All night, Won't you let go
All night Stagefright, On with the show
Stagefright All night, You're dream starts today
All night Stagefright, is only a heartbeat away
You're going for my head,
you're going down
Gettin' good at being bad,
you're hangin' round
A fun inspired asylum, toys for the boys
Love on the rocks, forget-me-nots,
you got no change
Stand up
Try a little bit of love
And a bit of persuasion
I heard love plus love's
A universal equation
But don't let somebody push you 'round
You gotta stand up
Stand up
You got something to say
Don't sit there and pout it
Put your feet on the seat
Stand up and shout it
And don't let somebody sit you down
Stand up
You wanna own the world
You want it stuffed and mounted
You can't do it sitting down
Stand up and be counted
But if you wanna break the rules
Stand up
This ain't no movie theater
This ain't a classroom
Nobody's gonna tell you what to do
So come on everybody, get up
I want you
Stand up
Let's see a little upward motion
You've got to clap your hands
If you wanna commotion
But don't let nobody sit you down
Stand up
Try a little bit of love
And a bit of persuasion
I heard love plus love's
A universal equation
But don't let somebody push you 'round
You gotta stand up
I said, ?Don't let somebody push you 'round
Stand up?
Don't let somebody push you 'round
Ever had a hot date one night
Couldn't wait, they won't get you too far
In the middle of a good night
Have you ever got a ride in the back seat of your car?
Stand up, have you ever been there?
Stand up, identify
Stand up, tell us all about it
Stand up, and testify
Ever met a woman, a late night woman
Party till your money was gone
Smiling Mona Lisa loaded up your Visa
Took the bartender home
Stand up, have you ever been there?
Stand up, identify
Stand up, tell us all about it
Stand up, and testify
Thought I was a He-Man, do it just for me, man
I know just what to do
Thought I was a hero, she rated me a zero
Honey, you ain't through
Stand up, have you ever been there?
Stand up, identify
Stand up, tell us all about it
Stand up, and testify
Stand up, stand up
Stand up, stand up
Stand up, tell us all about it
Stand up, identify
Stand up, have you ever been there?
Sometimes it's not so easy
Sometimes life can be so cruel
Every time you think you're winning
Someone changes all the rules
But the odds are in your favour
When you know you're on a roll
When you know just what you're playing for
So now's the time to take control
They try and break you
Make you compromise
Just look them in the eyes
And tell 'em you'll not take it anymore
Stand up
Show this world what you are made of
Keep the dream alive
Stand up
Tell anyone who may be listening
Keep the dream alive
Don't listen when they tell you
What you're doing can't be done
You don't have to be what they tell you
All you have to be is strong
They try and break you
Make you compromise Just look them in the eyes
And tell 'em you'll not take it anymore
Stand up
Show this world what you are made of
Keep the dream alive
Stand up
Tell anyone who may be listening
Keep the dream alive
Stand up
Show this world what you are made of
Keep the dream alive
Stand up
Tell anyone who may be listening

Walking down Williams through Mart and Blays (mart and blays)
Call it Big Steps where I used to play (used to play)
The girls in the park gotta lot to say (lot to say)
Them girls over here threw they life away (life away)
Cause they got babies and they just now head (just now head)
They double numbers they mamas promoting this here
The boys on the court playing basketball (basketball)

Blays Rd. Stand up! (uh)
Pre K Stand Up! (uh)
East Coast Stand Up! (uh)
You should
Come around my way [x2]
I'm from a place in Harlem
Where the streets they look like Africa
And the trees are in better condition than the homes so abandoned
P S 197
Where I study my academic stare run
And the books so worn and torn I can't think
How they tried to cripple me
Understood the lost side of me
Thank god I had a good teacher on the side of me
Showed me the right thangs to do
Overcame these obstacles
Haters stand up for the things that we've been through ooh
Blays Rd. Stand up! (uh)
Pre K Stand Up! (uh)
East Coast Stand Up! (uh)
You should
Come around my way [x2]
Here we got these buildings called projects but they ain't three stories
They fill about ten on the block april flow go up by twenty
Stories I tell be true story kids cut school and watch Maury
Like if they ain't intelect in what's affecting my life I can't respect them
But that's just they way of the ghetto
People who come from where I'm from get it
But we still gotta make a difference
Stand up tall so the world can get it
Teach kids pride insted of "Outside"
Show another side and they show gon' rise
Stop letting responsibilty fall
I can tell you ain't been aroung my way at all
Why don't you come around (way)
So you can see what my (way)
Eyes been seeing why (way)
Why don't you come around
Where we need directions (way)
Respect in every lesson (way)
Way, why don't you come around

Watch out for the medallion my diamonds are wreckless
Feels like a MIDGET is hanging from my neckless
I pulled up wit a million trucks
Looking, smelling, feeling like a million bucks-ahh!
Pass the bottles, the heat is on
We in the huddle all smoking that Cheech & Chong
What's wrong?! The club and moon is full
And I'm lookin for a THICK young lady to pull
One sure shot way to get em outta them pants
Take note to the brand new dance, like this
Go on wit ya big ass! lemme see something
Tell ya little friend he can quit mean mugging
I'm lit and I don't care what no one thinks
But where the FUCK is the waitress at wit my drinks?!
My people outside and they can't get in
We gon' rush the back door and break em in
The owner already pissed cause we sorta late
But our time and our clothes gotta coordinate
Most girls lookin right some lookin a mess
That's why they spilling drinks all over ya dress
But Louis Vuitton bras all over your breasts
Got me wanting to put hickies all over ya chest-ahh
C'mon! we gon party tonight
Y'all use mouth to mouth bring the party to life
Don't be scurred, show another part of your life
The more drinks in your system the harder to fight!
Stand up! Stand up!
Stand up! Stand up!
Damn right the Fire Marshall wanna shut us down
Get us out so someone can gun us down
We was two songs away from getting some cutta
Now we one song away from tearing da club up
Move over! Luda got something to say

Stand up! Stand up!
Stand up! Stand up!
Stand up! (just like that?)
Stand up! (just like that?)
Put on the headset, get on the stage
Out on a midnight escapade
Didn't want to steal your thunder
Wouldn't want to play your game
Makin' all the headlines
Gettin' on the front page

CHORUS:
Stand up, stand up and take it
Stand up, stand up and make it
Stand up, stand up and face it
Stand up
Get on the red dress, slip on the lace
Up for a high heel and a pretty face
Woman wanna get you under

Lovin' on a hot night
Stokin' up the flame

REPEAT CHORUS

Just be yourself, don't hide it anymore
Stand up and shout
Stand up and raise the cane, yeah
Stand up and shout
Stand up, stand up, stand up
One of us will always be waitin'
Open handed, hearts shinin' through

Stand up and shout
Stand up and scream your name
Stand up and shout
Stand up and shake your thing, yeah
Stand up and shout
Stand up, stand up, stand up
Stand up, stand up
Is there a reason for all your lies?
Your hatred and deceit
Reflected in your eyes
All the things you said
All the hate you bred
It's all trapped inside your feeble head
One thing that you should know
There's strength in numbers
And we're starting to grow
Face off tempers grow short
The noose is getting tighter
And you better abort
Mayhem is our middle name we're
getting sick and tired
of society's game
Vengeance is ours to know
We're taking to the streets
Gonna take control
They say they won't listen to me
All these years I struggled to be free
They say they don't like my ways
Now's the time for retribution
It starts today
Stand up today last chance
Don't try to turn your back on me
Are you the keepers of all our lives?
You prey and mistreat
We wait for your demise
Dishonest path you've led
Through all the blood you've shed
Excuses that you state
Will help us seal your fate
We're getting sick and tired
of all your lies
When the fuck will you realize
That things are destined for change
You've been fucking long enough with our brains
Now it's time to feel our pain
(Young/Young/Johnson)

Walking fast

Look at her shoes

Shoes, jealous, fuck you, stand up
(...)
I wish you
Were a help to me
Frightening light so
Keep it dark
Keep your lights low so
I can't see inside
She runs
To the big people
But listen to me
I know
Sent, go, ob, ed, a, no, face, way
Shoes, jealous, fuck you, stand up
(...)
I love
What does she put on now?
Every day
Do you love her more than me?
All night long
Sent, go, ob, ed, a, no, face, way
Shoes, jealous, fuck you, stand up
I did this track for the church
everbody talking about they livin it dawg
but we need to see it
signed doctor productions
lecrae you heard this
let's get it
verse 1
ey im not ashamed of this 116
my crew flipped up what it did with this
repetentant sinners
blood stained banner
i done rep for my lord whom i represent
from the island of summer
to the gs in the gang with the rocks on they wrists
with they glocks on they hips
but dawg it's the people dying for lack of this information
i pray that everbody
will flock to the rock of ages
especially when they find out we serve a god that's so graciuos
but,
ain't nobody talking to a brother that's incomplascent
we ran until he call us dawg
like adam we fallin dawg
and still he's callin dawg
and sometimes we be stalling dawg
gone ran like an athlete on the trac beat
and the to pack meat on his back like a back seat
you can catch me like a taxi on the back street
but god chooses to save us mayne
pull us out and rep his name
plus through jesus he pleases to use us as his vessles mayne
cats who wanna walk it and talk it
teach it and preach it
they love it they live it
they'll go it wherever they leaded
chorus
we kingdom people we willing to repent and guys that will rep the lord
unselfish forward servants who live to expect the lord
we live to bless the lord
coz we confess the lord
(just believe)all we ever needed was just the lord
verse 2
in the midst of this diasterr
he callin for ambassadors
to hit the street with a clique bent chipped on showing how he did'nt pass the cup
but how he took the wrath for us
and out of love he ask for us
but we ignore and pass him up for the life of the night
that's bad for us
somehow he keeps on grabbin us
attracting us
and before we know it
it masters us
men how dose this happen
we never
but could it be lackin love
we are in the war like maximus
and discipline builds your chacharacter
the tipical way we should live life
so mentor christ on his character
no hocus pocus magic wands
no one cares if you're the pastors son
persevere thruogh the trials of this life
there's no time to be complascent
let hope be your motivation
that's enough to spark a movement even in incarceration
on campus or in the hood
stop
learn the word and spit it bro
chorus
verse 3
ey first thing first dawg jesus lives
heaven dawg you bet is real
reppin him till we dead and still
or at least until the next
reaching for my people in the church
yellin all my kingdom people stand up
men its time we hold it down and live it
come on dawg
coz we christians
men as a
we livin stak on our mission
and if you knew your position you'd be out representing
holding yopur bible and track
yelling revivle is back
on the block in the hood
boom ducks in the wood
beeing troops not even laying back
jesus he died for us dawg

wth him was the folden the spirit
and that the same spirit
let's put the cross on the move
they should see more than our
let's
hope this is god in your view
god's with us immanuel
and if you not time will tell
dawg i don't iplay with no fire

rep his love

Hey, hey
Don't keep apologizing
Cause everything's undone
You can never know
What nothing might become
If the only thing you do is dream
Then you're spending all your life asleep
So where's the light
When you're never trying
The tunnel never seems to end
Don't apologize
For everything you're not
You know that
Everything was nothing at the start
If you been sitting down - STAND UP
Been stuck to the ground - STAND UP
Don't apologize
When you know it's time to stop
You gotta stand up up up
Just stand up up up
Together we can stand up up up
Just stand up up up
It's never over til the final moment
You give up
Always complaining
How you're running out of luck
If the best thing you can do is dream
A dream is all you'll ever achieve
Too far from perfect
To think you're worth it
Has perfect ever been seen
Don't apologize
For everything you're not
You know that
Everything was nothing at the start
If you been sitting down - STAND UP
Been stuck to the ground - STAND UP
Don't apologize
When you know it's time to stop
You gotta stand up up up
Just stand up up up
Together we can stand up up up
Just stand up up up
So if you're better at giving up
Just keep run running runners up
And if you keep on falling
Just stand up
But if you give it the best you got
Making room for another shot
And if you end up falling just stand up
Don't apologize
For everything you're not
You know that
Everything was nothing at the start
If you been sitting down - STAND UP
Been stuck to the ground - STAND UP
Don't apologize
When you know it's time to stop
You gotta stand up up up
Just stand up up up
Together we can stand up up up

[Chorus]
[Outro: M.O.P.]

I'm there of what you dream
I see you, but what are you?
I'm there of what you dream
I see you, but what are you?
You make me sick
Eat me up
Stand up
I was there where you will never be
Bits come off your shell
But I recognize still nothing
You change with the flow of the mass
A thick empty shell with no content
I keep my eyes shut, but I scream at you
Just open your eyes
Take me up, tear me down
But when I'm gone
You're the one who's left
Take me up, tear me down
You're the one who's left
I can't recognize you
A bug full of stand ups
I can't recognize you
A bug full of stand ups
A bug full of stand ups
A bug full of stand ups
Bits come off your shell
But I recognize still nothing
You change with the flow of the mass
A thick empty shell with no content
I keep my eyes shut, but I scream at you
Just open your eyes
Take me up, tear me down
But when I'm gone
You're the one who's left
Take me up, tear me down
Tear me down
Take me up, tear me down
But when I'm gone
You're the one who's left
Take me up, tear me down

Got babies like caviar, growin' evening star
God bless the dead, Tupac Shakur
You can't divide war, this slim galore
Arabian flow, at nine a gigolo
With a bad hot hoe, only cocaine up the nose
Incognito, defeat me, how so?
Rap K'd O, money green playin', go

Made me blow, on rap radio (Wu, Wu)

Born God Body with the vest of heat
When the Bee Sting hit, niggaz move they feet
Yo, we banned from the club, you best to not sleep
Keep somethin' on the waves, thug passion with the Alize's
Smack 85 percenters, right in they face
On some black pimpin' shit, like my dun-dun Huey
God Squad in the building, big bags of ooey
Push the phat shit like Dutch Tsasui
RZA bring all the shit, fuck these clowns
Ason Unique, yeah baby, hold me down
Original tag team, S.I. City
Ain't nothin' sweet kid, ain't nothin' pretty
Wu-Tang Forever, kid, keep it gritty

Oh baby, dedicated to all the pretty girls
All the pretty girls in the world, and the ugly girls too
We gotta stand up - for what we believe in
We got no time - We havent got a monent
Oh yeah there's - gotta be something
A new revolution - A final solution
Oh a rich man in the white house
All gonna rise up to let you hear our voice
Bullied and paid your way there is no doubt
Who are they to take away a woman's choice
We've been livin so long under oppression all afflicted by their sick economic games,
Power, policy, and religion money talks leaders listen
All over the world the story's the same
We gotta stand up - for what we believe in
We got no time - We havent got a monent
Oh yeah there's - gotta be something
A new revolution - A final solution
Oh gotta change the world for our children
It'llbe them who inherit all of our mistakes
So can you please listen to what I'm sayin
gotta change our self-destructive ignorant ways
Becuase our state of mind needs to be corrected
So let's teach our kinds never to hate
And its their future we're protectin
So black and white I'm beggin - Can we all get along together someday
We gotta stand up - for what we believe in
We got no time - We havent got a monent
Oh yeah there's - gotta be something
A new revolution - A final solution

Now when I was just a little child
Enrolled in elementary school
That big 'ol teacher
Would ask me a question
And I'd sit there
Trembling like a fool
So I asked my daddy,
I said, What's wrong with me?
He said, Son, if you know the answer
This is how it's got to be
He said
CHORUS:
You've got to stand up
And be counted
You've got to raise your hand
And let them call your name
You've got to stand up
If you want to be counted
Lift your voice
And don't ever be ashamed
The next day at school
The teacher asked a question
And she shot a look my way
And I stood right up
And I said, Teacher
There's something
That I've got to say
You know the grass below is green
And the sky above is blue
And Columbus found this country
In 1492
You need to stand up
And be counted
You've got to raise your hand
And just let them call your name
You've got to stand up
If you want to be counted
Lift your voice
And don't ever be ashamed
Now I believe the Lord
He's looking for someone
Who's gonna stand up
For the Church
And he wants you to stand up
On the street
And where you go to school
And where you go to work
And in a world filled with darkness
That's surrounded by the night
Someone needs to stand up for Jesus
And start to shine that Light
We need to stand up
And be counted
We need to raise our hands
And start to praise His matchless Name
We need to stand up
If we want to be counted
Lift your voice
And don't ever, ever, ever
Stand up make a joyful noise
Stand up here today
Stand up make a joyful noise
Stand up give Him praise
He is the only One
He is the King
He is the only One
He's everything
He is the only One
I wanna sing
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Stand Up and give Him praise.
I can't keep it to myself,
I wanna shout.
I can't keep it to myself,
I gotta let this praise come out.
I've been released, from sins of my past
Taken away from my conscience at last,
What d'you see when you look at me? You got somethin' you need to say
your eyes are cryin' but your voice is still well don't wait for charity
to pay your bill! Stand up! The door is open wide stand up! It's time to
turn your tide just once tell me what you keep behind those eyes we all
plead intentions, but the devil's intentions aren't good (ya know!)
everybody has got their cross but you wear yours right across your face
damning me with your sainted eyes suffering our compromise stand up! The
door is open wide stand up! It's time to turn your tide just once tell
me what you keep behind those eyes we all plead intentions, but the
We gotta stand up - for what we believe in
We got no time - We havent got a monent

So they say that we'll never make a difference.And if we do it they don't care.What do they really know about us anyway.What do they really care about us anyway.As we all stand together.Side by side forever.They can't deny what we have done.Or what we have become.Standing strong side by side, just me and you.This time we know wrong from right.The ways of this world we will fight.This time we won't be deceived.Stand up for what we believe.
Some people stand by
While others stand tall
Some stand in the breech
Some stand behind the wall
Some stand and cheer
For a stick and a ball
Some stand for nothing at all
What do you stand for?
Do you stand for the right?
Do you stand for justice
The truth and the light?
Do you stand up to honor
The true and the brave?
Do you stand for Old Glory?
Long may she wave
(Where do you stand?)
If you stand for freedom you must stand the price
(Where do you stand?)
If you stand for peace
Sometimes you got to stand and fight
(Where do you stand?)
If you stand for peace but will not stand for war
(Where do you stand?)
Then you stand for nothing worth fighting for
What'll make you stand up?
What'll make you rise
With a cheer on your lips
And a tear in your eyes?
What forges your will
Not to budge one inch more?
What'll make you stand up?
(Stand up)
It's time to stand up
(Stand up)
You know you got to stand up
(Stand up)
Stand up for what you stand for
(Where do you stand?)
If you stand for freedom, you got to stand the price
(Where do you stand?)
If you stand for peace sometimes you got to stand and fight
(Where do you stand?)
If you stand for peace but will not stand for war
(Where do you stand?)
Then you stand for nothing worth fighting for
What'll make you stand up?
What'll make you rise
With a cheer on your lips
And a tear in your eyes?
What forges your Will
Not to budge one inch more?
What'll make you stand up?
(Stand up)
It's time to stand up
(Stand up)
We've all got to stand up
(Stand up)
Stand up for what we stand for
(Stand up)
For what we stand for
(Stand up)
All the lonely people crying
It could change if we just get started
Lift the darkness, light a fire
For the silent and the broken hearted
Won't you stand up, stand up, stand up?
Won't you stand up, you girls and boys?
Won't you stand up, stand up, stand up?
Won't you stand up and use your voice?
There's a comfort, there's a healing
High above the pain and sorrow
Change is coming, can you feel it
Calling us into a new tomorrow?
Won't you stand up, stand up, stand up?
Won't you stand up, you girls and boys?
Won't you stand up, stand up, stand up?
Won't you stand up and use your voice?
When the walls fall all around you
When your hope has turned to dust
Let the sound of love surround you
Beat like a heart in each of us
Won't you stand up, stand up, stand up?
Won't you stand up, you girls and boys?
Won't you stand up, stand up, stand up?
Won't you stand up and use your voice?
Won't you stand up, stand up, stand up?
Won't you stand up, you girls and boys?
Won't you stand up, stand up, stand up?
Won't you stand up and use your voice?
Won't you stand up?
Won't you stand up, stand up, stand up?
Abusing
No more
No more
He says he loves you but the make-up
Will not cover up the bruises he left on you
I tried to stop the cycle for you, this relationship is wack
You bastard, don't touch her anymore
Stand up, stand up
He's a drunk and abusing
Stand up, stand up
He thinks that you'll never leave him
Stand up, stand up
I wont let him get near you
Stand up, stand up
Next time's your fault when he hurts you
I think that you should have the chance
To enjoy the friends you have, he wants to erase them
I know that you are trying hard not to show up
But the coward is an asshole, he's shameless
Stand up, stand up
He's a drunk and abusing
Stand up, stand up
He thinks that you'll never leave him
Stand up, stand up
I wont let him get near you
Stand up, stand up
Next time's your fault when he hurts you
Abusing
No more
No more
Abusing
No more
No more
Stand up, stand up
It's not your fault when he hits you
Stand up, stand up
He thinks that you'll never leave him
Stand up, stand up, stand up
He'll always hurt you
Stand up, stand up, stand up
One day he'll kill you
Stand up, stand up, stand up
He's always hurting you
Stand up, stand up, stand up
Loser, some times I feel, but I know it's not real
I've told myself this a million times before
Time and time again, I try to see things 'til the end
But sometimes something seems to hold me right back to the ground
Over and over again, I think of what it could have been
If I had kept my head on straight and out of the clouds
This feeling inside of me, nowhere left to hide
It's like a bomb waiting to explode inside of me
You've got to stand up for yourself
Don't rely on no one else
Only you know where you stand in life
Go after your dreams
It's easier than it seems
Only you know where you stand in life
Take some time to figure out just what it's all about
And keep on holding on to what's dear to you
I think that in the end what it comes to my friend
Is to enjoy life and to keep on holding on and on
"Stand Up"

When it's only you and me (you & me)
And can nobody take us under
'Cause the rest is history (rest is history)
So everybody stand up
'Cause we roll like the sound of thunder
When it's only you and me (you & me)
Hands up -

She looks like Monroe
It's a good impersonation
From start to finish
It's her better side
Head over heels
Yes, he feels a strange sensation
Excedrin Headache #65
That's the trouble with love
That's the trouble with war
You never get what you came for
Stand up, stand up
The more you do it
The less you fall down
Stand up, stand up
Put your head in the clouds
And your feet on the ground
Stand up, stand up
For the time of your life
You turn it up loud
Stand up, stan up
What kind of fashion
Is this flash infatuation
Is all this admiration mutual
Need no lessons
In emotiona starvation
Tat look in her eyes
Is too good to be true...
So now you got a good reason
Yeah, but you just gorra learn
It's what makes the world turn
Stand up, stand up
The more you do ti
The less you fall down
Stand up, stand up
Put your head in the clouds
And your feet on the ground
Stand yp, stand up
For the time of your life
You turn it up loud
Dream yourself awake
Can't make it through the night
Wicked dreams will haunt you
When the morning light shines
You try to find your way outside
Just another day
You try to let them shine
The people disappoint you
Makes you wonder why you cry
You can almost see the end of you
So come on stand up
Yeah put your hands up
It ain't wrong to be strong
And it's gonna be gone
And then they won't come back to you
No, no, no, no, wake up
Try not to break up
If they're holding you down
Then you rise to the top
'Cause you're a bad, bad girl
And you just can't stop, no, no, no
Give yourself a break
Listen to your heart
Let your conscience guide you
Never let your guard down
Find out the best of you
Everything you do
And what is done to you
Doesn't have to change you
It only makes you stronger and stronger
The more they take away from you
So come on stand up
Yeah, put your hands up
It ain't wrong to be strong
And it's gonna be gone
And then they won't come back to you
No, no, no, no, wake up
Try not to break up
If they're holding you down
Then you rise to the top
'Cause you're a bad, bad girl
And you just can't stop, no, no, no
'Cause you're a bad, bad girl
And you just can't stop, no, no, no
You won't lead no beggars life
And you sure don't need their bad advice
Or their five cents worth of what they think of you
Sometimes they're not so into you
Keep your head up above that line, you know
Everybody loses sometimes
Shame, shame, shame
The things they've done to you
So come on stand up
Yeah, put your hands up
It ain't wrong to be strong
And it's gonna be gone
And then they won't come back to you
No, no, no, no, wake up
Try not to break up
If they're holding you down
Then you rise to the top
'Cause you're a bad, bad girl
Too bored to live and too young to die
You get too tall, I'll cut you down to size
TV fear sells brand new cars
My love lives with my guitar
It's easy to feel that free
When you know what you want to be
Stand up, your time is come back around
Stand up, there's nothing holding you down
Walk on with your feet off the ground
How they gonna stop you now?
And how they gonna stop you now?
So learn to love or learn to lie
Just don't sit and watch the world go by
TV fear sells brand new cars
My love lives with my guitar
It's easy to feel that free
When you know what you want to be
Stand up, your time is come back around
Stand up, there's nothing holding you down
Walk on with your feet off the ground
And how they gonna stop you now?
How they gonna stop you now?
And how they gonna stop you now?
Never gonna stop you now
I said, stand up, don't sit back down
I said, stand up, don't sit back down
They got the mouth, we got the soul
Come on now, honey, won't ya let it roll?
You got to move, don't hang around
Come on now, honey, can you hear me now?
Can you hear me now?
Can you hear me now?
Can you hear me now?
Can you hear me now?
Can you hear me now?
Can you hear me now?
Can you hear me now?
Stand up, stand up
Stand up, your time is come back around
Stand up, there's nothing holding you down
Walk on with your feet off the ground
How they gonna stop you now?
I said, how they gonna stop you now?
Said I, I, I, I never meant to hurt you
But you didn't even try
To take away my pain or dry my weeping eyes
Cos you can't, can you baby
Keep doing me wrong and I won't accept it no more
You had me so caught up baby, had me so blind
Everything was about you and I put all my needs aside
So go back to her, stop wasting my time
Cos I'm gonna, I'm gonna
I'm gonna stand up, I'm tired of being let down
Takes a damn fool to keep you around
Gonna stand up on my two feet
Cos I don't need you to make me complete
See, I had to learn the hard way
That you were doing me, you were doing me wrong
All those lonely nights that you left me alone
And gave me the power to finally
Stand up, stand up
Damn fool to keep you around
Gonna stand up on my two feet
Cos I don't need you to make me complete, no, no
To all my ladies and my girls
Know that he's not your world
Don't be afraid to leave
Come on ladies sing with me
And stand up, I'm gonna stand
I'm gonna stand up on my two feet
Cos I don't need you to make me complete
(Stand up) I won't miss you around oh baby
(Damn fool) I'd be a damn fool to keep you around
(Stand up) I'll stand up
Spent your life on the fence
And wonder where the time went
From the time you were born
You always did what you? ve told
When you? ve gone there? s nothing you leave behind Always easy to please
Never get off your knees
Give and you will receive
Just like a kick in the teeth
How long can you just turn the other cheek Tell me what you? ve got to lose
There? s just so much you can do Stand up, one shot can make a nation cry
One voice can make them wonder why
One spark can make a fire burn
One lesson everybody must learn You gotta search for the truth
It? s just so easy to lose
When there? s so many lies
That find a way to get through
I know the future is in your hands
Don? t hide your head in your hands
There? s just so much you can stand Who? s gonna answer your prayers
When you are no longer there
If you? re looking for signs
You must be crazy or blind
I know the future is in your hands Tell me what you gotta lose
'Cause I came here to dance
I'm gonna put up my hands and stand up, stand up

Verse I
Stand up for right
Join in the fight
Be a soldier for Jesus
Stand up for what is right
Join in the fight
Be a soldier for Jesus
The world is under a siege of war
Your soul you must guard
To be on the winning team
Let God recruit your heart
In drug infested streets
Satan makes his attack
Arm yourself with prayer and praise
Drive the devil back
Chorus
Stand up for right
Join in the fight
Be a soldier for Jesus
Verse II
The combat zone is everywhere
Satan out to devour
His bark is worse than his bite
Against God's Almighty power
He'll tempt you to fall
Or to go AWOL
With power, truth untold
You can stop him cold
Vamp
We're going no stop

Look at all the lonely hearts
Shivering out in the dark
Hiding from the truth
Cover up the proof
Demons that I've tried to hide
Imprison me in my own lies
And all that I can do is cover up the proof
Don't be afraid to
(Stand up)
Stand up if you're broken
(Stand up)
Stand up if you feel ashamed
You are not alone when you hurt this way
(Stand up)
Stand up if you need love
(Stand up)
This is not Judgment Day
You don't have to hide, there's no need to run
Everything will be okay
Secrets got me torn apart
Trying to destroy my heart
But I can see the light
It's cutting through the night

The face before me flies
Laughs at me inside
Masks are made to hide the glow
Shining eyes
Distance 'tween us grows
feeding lies
It's hard to start things over
You can feel the fire around us
All the time
Yeah
Something I should say
It takes you every day
What you give is not alive
Today
Your soul served on a plate
Throw it away
It's hard to start things over
You can feel the fire around us
All the time
Yeah
It's hard to start things over
Oh yeah
You can feel the fire around us
All the time
Yeah
It's hard to start things over
Oh yeah
You can feel the fire around us
All the time
Yeah
All the time
What the hell have I?

I've found something that nothing else brings...keeps me complete.
So listen closely... could you try harder
faking something that shows some signs that you believe
There is still worth in time spent,
But we don't enjoy the journey to the end.
Well that's not perfect for me.
This life is enough.
This life is my love.
It's so hard to stay young,
It's so hard to stay young.
This life is enough.
This life is my love.
It's so hard to stay young,
It's so hard to stay young.
I feel doubt when your expectations leave me outdone
But my successes, they wont be measured by long term lessons...
I live each moment like my last.
There is still worth in life spent,
so whats the point in racing to the end?
Well that's not purpose to me.
This life is enough.
This life is my love.
It's so hard to stay young,
It's so hard to stay young.
This life is enough.
This life is my love.
It's so hard to stay young,
It's so hard to stay young.
Stand up, Stand up now, Grab a hold of what you got.
Stand up, Stand up now, The best years are spent growing up.
Stand up, Stand up now, Listen to your hearts request.
Stand up, Stand up now, It never leads you straying from the best.
This life is enough.
This life is my love.
It's so hard to stay young,
It's so hard to stay young.
This life is enough.
This life is my love.
It's so hard to stay young,
You're fallin' down, you hit the ground
You must rebound, stand up my friend
When morning come, you can get some
Keep movin' on, get up again
You're fallin' down, you hit the ground
You must rebound, stand up my friend
When morning come, you can get some
Keep movin' on, get up again
Trust me, dirt tastes dusty
My demons push me and rush me
They got me by the throat like a goat
So I wrote these notes that everybody can see
You know when you're all alone and you're on your own
And you feel stripped down to the bone
Just lying down in the dust and a bloody dirty crust
Is running up and down your nose
Spit it out brother, say it loud brother
Come on, enough is enough, I'm too tough to give it away
One of my demons will pay
For these crazy puzzles I face everyday
You're fallin' down, you hit the ground
You must rebound, stand up my friend
When morning come, you can get some
Keep movin' on, get up again
You're fallin' down, you hit the ground
You must rebound, stand up my friend
When morning come, you can get some
Keep movin' on, get up again
Good better best, mi na go rest till mi good is better
You ain't gonna see me rest till I made my better best
To the good, to the better, to the best
Never gonna let good be my measure
This gonna be my quest mi na go sleep, mi na go rest
More mountains to top, more oceans to dive in
And more beauty to drop and our soul makes it up
We go dead or alive, right now we sing our life
See how these words can drive, where do you wanna arrive?
We wanna move non-stop seeing all your heads up
Dont need a roof on our club, we are all part of the mob
Wanna rock your soul, that's our goal
Gonna pick you up truck around the clock
You're fallin' down, you hit the ground
You must rebound, stand up my friend
When morning come, you can get some
Keep movin' on, get up again
You're fallin' down, you hit the ground
You must rebound, stand up my friend
When morning come, you can get some
Keep movin' on, get up again
You're fallin' down, you hit the ground
You must rebound, stand up my friend
When morning come, you can get some
Keep movin' on, get up again
You're fallin' down, you hit the ground
You must rebound, stand up my friend
When morning come, you can get some
Gotta make a stand
Gettin' too damned deep,
I think I need my shovel
Gettin' deep my brother
Gotta make a stand, yeah
Hearin' all your lies, I don't need another
No, you're not my brother
Yeah, I'm gettin' tired
Tired of what they're givin' to me
Turnin' up the fire
Now you're gonna start to feel the heat
Chorus:
Yeah, I'm gonna stand up
never keep us down
Stand up, don't push me 'round
Stand up, people can't you see
Stand up, no I'm not, no I'm never
goin' down on my knees
Better walk away
See it in my eyes, it couldn't
be much stronger
Don't be 'round much longer
Better get away
Gettin' in my face, gonna be a goner
Self defense, your honor
Everday they're pushin'
Tryin' to put one over on me
I don't need a cushin'
'Cause I'm throwin' away my seat
Chorus
Gotta make a stand
Hearin' all your lies, I don't need another
No, I no I, no I don't
Yeah, I'm gettin' tired
Tired of what you're givin' to me
Turnin' up the fire
Now you're gonna start to feel the heat
Yeah, I'm gonna stand up
never keep us down
Stand up, don't push me 'round
Stand up, people can't you see
Stand up, no I'm not, no I'm never
From the moment I met you
Everything changed
I knew I had to get you
What ever the pain
I had to take you and make you mine
(had to make you mine)
I would walk through the desert
I would walk down the isle
I would swim all the oceans just to see you smile
What ever it takes
It's fine
(what ever it takes its fine)
Oh oh oh ooh oh
So put your hands up
Oh oh oh ooh oh
Cause its a stand up
I won't be leaving till i've finished stealing a piece of your heart
Every piece of your heart
I know your hearts been broken
Don't you give up

To fix you with love
It hurts me to think
That you've ever cried
Oh oh oh ooh oh

If you give me the chance
Oh oh oh ooh oh

I got in a fight over some stupid insecurities.
Stepped out of the light.
When did we lose our old identity?
Now my white flags are waving around
'Cause you don't need your best friends bringing you down.
Something in the air with the smoke and the fire
Got in my eyes, our eyes singing,
Stand up, stand up
Can I be strong enough?
I'm trying hard to be myself again
To be myself again.
I've been tripping over all the rules
Living my live somebody else's way.
I've been sinking on this ship of fools,
Following orders that I can't obey.
Now my white flags are waving around
'Cause the choices I've made ran me into the ground.
Someone's at the crash site digging me out.
I hope it's you, I hear you singing to me
Stand up, stand up
Can I be strong enough?
I'm trying hard to be myself again
Stand up, stand up
Brothers be strong enough.
We're trying hard to be ourselves again
To be ourselves again.
When plans go wrong they won't set the sun.
When plans go wrong they won't ruin the day.
Stand up, stand up
I gotta be strong enough.
I'm trying hard to be myself again.
So stand up, stand up.
Brothers be strong enough.
We're trying hard to be ourselves again again.
Stand up, stand up (Stand up, stand up)
Stand up, stand up, stand up!
Stand up, stand up (Stand up, stand up)
Stand up, we shall not be moved
Except by a child with no socks and shoes
If you've got more to give then you've got to prove
Put your hands up and I'll copy you
Stand up, we shall not be moved
Except by a woman dyin? from the loss of food
If you've got more to give then you've got to prove
Put your hands up and I'll copy you
We still don't understand thunder and lightnin?
Flashback to when we didn't fund the dam
Didn't fund the damn levee? No wonder man
Now, our whole damn city's torn asunder man
Under water but we still don't understand
We see hurricane spills over on the land
Through gaps you couldn't fill with a 100 tons of sand
No, we still don't understand
We've seen planes in the windows of buildings crumbled in
We've seen flames send the chills through London
And we've sent planes to kill them and some of them are children
But still we crumblin? the buildin?
Underfunded but we still don't understand
Under God but we kill like the son of Sam
But if you feel like I feel like about the Son of Man
We will overcome
So stand up, we shall not be moved
Except by a child with no socks and shoes
If you've got more to give then you've got to prove
Put your hands up and I'll copy you
Stand up, we shall not be moved
Except by a woman dyin? from the loss of food
If you've got more to give then you've got to prove
Put your hands up and I'll copy you
I said, "Put your hands up and I'll copy you"
Put your hands up and I'll copy you
If you've got more to give then you've got to prove
Put your hands up and I'll copy you
We shall not be moved
Except by a child with no socks and shoes
Except by a woman dyin? from the loss of food
Except by a freedom fighter bleedin? on a cross for you
We shall not be moved
Except by a system that?s rotten through
Neglectin? the victims and orderin? the cops to shoot
High treason, now we, need to prosecute
So Stand up, we shall not be moved
And we won?t fight a war for fossil fuel
It's times like this that you want to plot a coo
Put your hands up and I'll copy you
Stand up, we shall not be moved
Unless we're takin? a route we have not pursued
So if you've got a dream and a lot to do
Put your hands up and I'll copy you
I said, "Put your hands up and I'll copy you"
Put your hands up and I'll copy you
If you've got a dream and a lot to do
Put your hands up
Now shake, shake, a Polaroid dream
Nightmare negatives develop on the screen
We sit back and wait for the government team
Criticize they but who the fuck are we?
The people want peace but the leaders want war
Our neighbors don't speak, peek through the front door
House representatives preach, ?Stay the course?
Time for a leap of faith once more
Put your hands up high if you haven't imagined
Hope that the pen strokes stronger than the cannon
Balls to the wall, nose to the grindstone
My interrogation techniques leave your mind blown
Place your bets, let?s speak to the enemy
Don't let ?em pretend that we seek blood
And who's we anyways, Kemo Sabe?
Mighty warlord, wannabe street thug
A threat for a threat leaves the whole world terrified
Blow for blow never settles the score
Word for word is time, need, clarify
We the people did not want war
So stand up, we shall not be moved
Except by a child with no socks and shoes
If you've got more to give then you've got to prove
Put your hands up and I'll copy you
Stand up, we shall not be moved
Unless were takin? a route we have not pursued
So if you've got a dream and a lot to do
Put your hands up and I'll copy you
I said, "Put your hands up and I'll copy you"
Put your hands up and I'll copy you
If you've got a dream and a lot to do
This is the way it feels
When you are lost
Can't help feeling
I've given up
A lot more than I got
No hope inside
Believe me when I see surprise
On your face and in your lies
You spewed to me
On our wedding day
And I can't face you
You come out swinging
You'd better hope your aim is true
Come out swinging
You might be swinging from a noose
She's tellin' lies
I realize
She's tellin' lies
About you again
I realize
She's not my friend
No one wants to hear you
When you're down
Turn their backs and
Turn off the phones
And draw the shade
Estranged from hope
Desperate and alone
It's getting difficult to swallow
Or work up a sound
Anymore, anyway
And I can't face you
You come out swinging
You'd better hope your aim is true
Come out swinging
You might be swinging from a noose
She's tellin' lies
I realize
She's tellin' lies
About you again
I realize
She's not my friend
(Repeat Chorus)
I've got something to tell you
Something you can't deny
I've taken all that you've given
I've had it p to my eye
Can't feel the hunger
Feel that you can't go on, now
Stand up and be counted
Don't push your luck too far
Stand up and be counted
Don't push your luck too far, woah woah woah woah
And now I feel it
Burnin' deep inside
I've got a lot of good reasons
Of the mysterious kind
Can't feel the hunger
Feel that you can't go on, now
Stand up and be counted
Don't push your luck too far
Stand up and be counted
Don't push your luck too far
Can't hold on
Can't hold on
Gonna rock it up tonight
Let it roll now
Let it go now
Let it loose tonight, woah
(Guitar Solo)
Can't feel the hunger
Feel that you can't go on, now
Stand up and be counted
Don't push your luck too far
Stand up and be counted
Don't push your luck too far
Stand up and be counted
Don't push your luck too far
Stand up and be counted
Don't push your luck too far
Stand up and be counted
Everytime I'm by myself
I'm staring out the window
I'm looking at the weather change
Seeing how the wind blows
I'm tired of giving everything
I've only got the air I breathe
I need sometime to myself
To lift me off the ground
Sometimes we learn
After we fall
But it's okay
Hook
If you stand up now
Your dreams will be heard
Gotta look inside your heart
If you believe you'll make
It through after all
Though at times they may break
You don't ever forget who you are
Because a woman's strength is in love
When I look into your eyes
I know the pain you're feeling
But it doesn't take away
The beauty of your smile
Sometimes we learn
After we fall
But it's okay
Hook
If you stand up now
Your dreams will be heard
Gotta look inside your heart
If you believe you'll make
It through after all
Though at times they may break
You don't ever forget who you are
Because a woman's strength is in love
Bridge
Time after time
They will hurt you
(don't you ever give in)
There's a reason you've made it this far
(don't you ever give up)
Though the road maybe long just hold on
To the faith in your heart
In your heart
Hook
If you stand up now
Your dreams will be heard
Gotta look inside your heart
If you believe you'll make
It through after all
Though at times they may break
You don't ever forget who you are
If you stand up now
Your dreams will be heard
Gotta look inside your heart
If you believe you'll make
It through after all
Though at times they may break
You don't ever forget who you are
Because a woman's strength
Is in love
If you surround yourself with negative people
You'll never feel settled in or become an equal, no
They'll suppress you of your spirit and rinse you dry of smiles
So reach deep and release your inner child, yeah, yeah
So stand up for the love, love, love
So stand up for the love, love, love
So stand up for the love, love, love
So stand up, stand up, for the love, love
'Cause you're as old as you feel you are
And if you don't reach for the moon you can't fall on the stars
So I live my life like every day is the last, last, last
'Cause you're as old as you feel you are
And if you don't reach for the moon you can't fall on the stars
So I live my life like every day is the last, last, last
So stand up
If you let a frown become your normality, yes
You don't set an example for the youth of our humanity
If you spend every day wishing for the next to come
Aged and lifeless is what, yes, you'll become, yeah, yeah
So stand up for the love, love, love
So stand up for the love, love, love
So stand up for the love, love, love
So stand up, stand up, for the love, love
'Cause you're as old as you feel you are
And if you don't reach for the moon you can't fall on the stars
So I live my life like every day is the last, last, last
'Cause you're as old as you feel you are
And if you don't reach for the moon you can't fall on the stars
So I live my life like every day is the last, last, last
(So stand up)
I live my life like every day is the last
So ignore the bad and the good will soon come
Don't think second best, be number one
Spread some love, don't give to receive
Strive to be happy and live to believe
So ignore the bad and the good will soon come
Don't think second best, be number one
Spread some love, don't give to receive
Strive to be happy and live to believe
So stand up for the love, love, love
So stand up, stand up for the love, love, love
So stand up for the love, love, love
So stand up, stand up, for the love, love
'Cause you're as old as you feel you are
And if you don't reach for the moon you can't fall on the stars

So I live my life like every day is the last, last, last
So stand up for the l-l-love, yeah
So stand up for the l-l-love, yeah
You give me untold riches
To which I hatched a plan
I drink myself to death
Just because I can
Gave me many choices
I didn't understand
Crawled across the floor
I knew I couldn't stand
Can't lie to myself this way
I have to stand up and walk away
I can't lie to myself this way
I have to stand up and walk away
Stand up
Stand up
Stand up
Stand up and walk
Away
Hard to watch you suffer
So hard to feel the pain
But you're wrapped so tight in your one block world
Too scared to make the change
Ask yourself this question
While you're playing with your gun
Is your finger shaking on the trigger
Are you really having fun
I can't lie to myself this way
I have to stand up and walk away
I can't lie to myself this way
I have to stand up and walk away
Stand up
Stand up
Stand up
Stand up and walk
Away
Stop talking
Try listening
To what I'm trying to say
If you're walking
You're breathing
Maybe you can make a change
You give me untold riches
To which I hatched a plan
I drink myself to death
Just because I can
Now I'm judge and jury
Are you having so much fun
Sitting up there on your throne
I've only just begun
I can't lie to myself this way
I have to stand up and walk away
I can't lie to myself today
I have to stand up and walk away
Stand up
Stand up
Stand up
Stand up and walk
Chorus
Stand Up Stand Up Stand Up

If You Look Into The Light You'll See
What You Were Meant To Be
Stand Up Stand Up Stand Up
It's Very Easy When Ya Rollin' Challengin' When Ya Down
Expectations Have Been Stolen Now Ya Smile Is A Frown
Ya Past Has Been Golden Now It's All Ugly Brown
Ya Dream Is Now Broken And Your Feet Have No Ground

For The Dead And Gone We Need A Moment Of Silence
Reactivate All Your Energy And Power
I Am Waitin' With A Goodie Bag On The Highest Tower
I Need Ya To Stand Up In This Very Second
Got A Life To Live Very Beautiful Check It

i need a sedative
but i don't need what you give
i don't see how you're so divine
i don't see how you live
reform you sanity before you come to me
or i'll just say goodbye
there is no guarantee of what you mean to me
stop, stop asking me why
stand up with it to throw it down
stand up willing for the sake of sound
stand up with it to throw it down
stand up willing for the sake of sound
it's all so relative
but it's all that i can give
i don't seem to ever mind but it comes time after time
so long to sanity, ever since you came to me
but you always come to mind
if we will ever be what we used to be
you'll have to take what you find
stand up with it to throw it down
stand up willing for the sake of sound
stand up with it to throw it down
stand up willing for the sake of sound
better believe what you see
i gave you ground on me
better that you try to prove
you only get what you give
stand up with it to throw it down
stand up willing for the sake of sound
stand up with it to throw it down
Be friends wit'cha gram!

Hey you, blow your whistle
Yo, yo, yo

You should know, yo I fucked you on the side of my hood
Never that dawg

Throw a razor in my mouth on the low
And suck ya dick wit' it
The world famous, priceless, still stainless dick
Pray over this, scoped ya love, nameless
Heavyweight dick in ya jaw
Good lickin' fom ya lips, now babygirl throw the song
Yo, yo, yo
Aye yo Tony, you phoney
We both signed to Sony
But for half ya pub, ride that dick like a Pony, what
Yeah, what, put your money on my dick
Girls, all eyes on my dick
Yo, yo, yo
Cats fatigued out, thinkin' they armies
My crew arms me with beats, how we swarm bee?
Who bang?, B'More and Wu Tang, new thang
Mad at how we do thangs, RZA cop me two fangs
Official, now I bite through gristle
Gold teeth style in from Philly to Stanton Island
While in the meantime, spit mean lines
Fuck clean rhymes, like mine's grimmy
Like my niggas be
Picture me, coming off soft
Ya'll just cough up shit, I swallow rhymes
Makin' bitches swallow 9's, re-define
This rap shit, make my shit a classic
Like Bethoven, stay posin'
For the camera, stamina
Like a crackhead, and crackheads are amauters
You try me, no in-between like Y to Z
Pick brains like labotomies
Still thoughts to charts of Billboard's
Throw pour ill spores, leave niggsa stiff like still-born's
I want all you brothers and sisters to stand up
(What, what, what)
I want everybody to stand up and be counted tonight
(Stand up baby, stand up baby)
Brothers and sisters, if you know you've got your thing together
I want you to stand on up!
(Stand up yo)
Now I got something to tell ya
I'll tell you, now that I think about it
(Yeah, what, what, what)
And now I wanna tell ya how to get your thing together
I'm like Spider-Man's fifth brohter up in the Clan
Drop like crap's that's scattered all up in ya van
Skelly-man crook, character star
In Donna Boines book
MGM, Heaven and Hell, sat with the cook
With the big spice bone, red hair's is killin' me
Knotted up, twisted and green
Seen them crystal's in that rap yo
And get Barear
Bear hug and five hundered ounce of that Staision
Wild man, Sarah
Rush after hours, Alpha in the beds
Caked hands like Dai Smith, rap haggler with a fade
Magillia, Charli Baltimore with Hazel driftin' withdrawels
Wind Face start with the Killah
Stood still, a whole river chill
Looked up and got dogged, that's when RZA started to build
Hey yeah!
I want all you brothers and sisters to stand up
Hey yeah!
I want all you brothers and sisters to stand up
Hey you, blow your whistle
What, what, what, what!
Aye yo, you craze me, turtleneck nigga rockin' Pasley
Shots crazily, steady blazin' where the spaids be
Teams like Starsky and Hutch, you put deluxe truck
Ya bankrupt, 52's Knox, I heard you Ku Klux, damn
Tear it out the van, sweat it with a tan
With get like Remo spray can, suga the ram
Fuck a cocktail, get my balls licked in Hell
Read his Igloo Tales, hell all the dogs with broken tails
Salt range, short order tab
Ironman, bubble bath, nuclear, split the atom in half
Meet dime O's, fifth brother bug inside 8 pole
Change though, crush the birds inside the strip pose
Rap Conspiracy, hold songs for ransom
Lancin' in Ghostmode, coke mixed with Branson
Sheisty, tree's soaked in half-ki's
Sabotage N.Y. with snipe's and 79's
Channel 9's scene street team made news with who's
Charli, every 16 bars be
Sickening, peep the scription
Rhyme vixen
Keep the clips in tact, watch ya back
Ain't done yet, 8-Spunett
Poison webbers
Spider-Woman, two legged, how we did it
What!
Come on and get a groove goin'!
Hey you, blow your whistle
Hey you, blow your whistle
Now clap your hands and say yeah
Yeah....
Now let me count it off

Hey, hey, hey yeah!

Something's fucked up. Something not right. I came to have a good time. You
came to fight. But I do fight. Nothing to fear 'cause I know my friends are
here.
I don't like to fight. I don't like getting hurt. Got my guard up. State of
alert.
I don't look for trouble. Trouble finds me. Need my friends. In an
emergency.
Don't go out alone. Go with a friend. You might need him in the end. Stand
I got in a fight over some stupid insecurities.
Stepped out of the light.
When did we lose our old identity?
Now my white flags are waving around
'Cause you don't need your best friends bringing you down.
Something in the air with the smoke and the fire
Got in my eyes, our eyes singing,
Stand up, stand up
Can I be strong enough?
I'm trying hard to be myself again
To be myself again.
I've been tripping over all the rules
Living my live somebody else's way.
I've been sinking on this ship of fools,
Following orders that I can't obey.
Now my white flags are waving around
'Cause the choices I've made ran me into the ground.
Someone's at the crash site digging me out.
I hope it's you, I hear you singing to me
Stand up, stand up
Can I be strong enough?
I'm trying hard to be myself again
Stand up, stand up
Brothers be strong enough.
We're trying hard to be ourselves again
To be ourselves again.
When plans go wrong they won't set the sun.
When plans go wrong they won't ruin the day.
Stand up, stand up
I gotta be strong enough.
I'm trying hard to be myself again.
So stand up, stand up.
Brothers be strong enough.
We're trying hard to be ourselves again again.
Stand up, stand up (Stand up, stand up) [x3]

Splattered,

But I know full well couple prars wanna bury me,

Come around my way
I'm from a place in Harlem
Where the streets they look like Africa
And the trees are in better condition than the homes so abandoned
P S 197
Where I study my academic stare run
And the books so worn and torn I can't think
How they tried to cripple me
Understood the lost side of me
Thank god I had a good teacher on the side of me
Showed me the right thangs to do
Overcame these obstacles
Haters stand up for the things that we've been through ooh
Blays Rd. Stand up! (uh)
Pre K Stand Up! (uh)
East Coast Stand Up! (uh)

Come around my way
Here we got these buildings called projects but they ain't three stories
They fill about ten on the block april flow go up by twenty
Stories I tell be true story kids cut school and watch Maury
Like if they ain't intelect in what's affecting my life I can't respect them
But that's just they way of the ghetto
People who come from where I'm from get it
But we still gotta make a difference
Stand up tall so the world can get it
Teach kids pride insted of "Outside"
Show another side and they show gon' rise
Stop letting responsibilty fall

My head spins with a thousand lies
So many voices only one that decides
I hang my head as I change my mind
If I let you down I apologize
There's one right choice but to go wrong
There's a million ways
It gets so hard I wish I could but I can't
Run away they tell me I shouldn't love you
They stand in the way I can here the voices and they all say,
Should I stand up for love
Or should I break your heart
I never knew why
Held the answers in my hands yeah,
So we never let it break us down
Though I wanna run I can't quit now
Anything I do won't be enough
Unless I stand up for love.
So I stand up and I stand tall
They can critisize but there not me at all
Consequence take it on the chin,
Love one way we won't be giving in,
One right choice that I make
Is another mans disdain
It gets so hard I thought about it
But I can't run away,
They can tell me I shouldn't
Love you and try to stand in the way
But I can hear the voices and they all say,
Should I stand up for love
Or should I break your heart
I never knew why
Held the answers in my hands yeah,
So we never let it break us down
Though I wanna run I can't quit now
Anything I do won't be enough
Unless I stand up for love.
Everything you want
Everything else seems so far,
Can't get enough
(Through love I am)
Yes I'm gonna fight for a
Very long space in time
Until your mine
(Solider for love I am)
Should I stand up for love
Or should I break your heart
I never knew why
Held the answers in my hands yeah,

Why do our failures seem to have a voice
They say we're lost and we don't have a choice
They’re telling us that we’re not capable
They say our prison's inescapable
CHORUS:
Stand up now
They can't hold us down
Stand up now
Get up off the ground
Why does our brokenness keep whispering
It’s telling us that we’re not anything
I say no fall is going to keep us out
This fear is something we’ll forget about
Chorus
bridge:
We’re fallen – it can’t hold us down
These failures – they hold us down
We’re broken – they can’t hold us down
This is the beginning – of a new lease on life
This freedom, - this passion is how we survive
Only got one life – one chance
To show what I got – and nothing will ever
Take this from me
You can never take this from me
Whatever happened to just – wanting to live your dream,
When no one cared about – the cover of a magazine
This is the price I pay – for the life I’ve made,
But I’m always finding a way to – Stand up,
Can’t you hear the – sound of – a thousand screaming voices,
Eager to watch you succeed – Give them something real to believe
You’ll try everything – to sell your soul for a quick buck,
So look at it this way
Tried to control my life – but I’ve got something to say
Your words, they make me sick,
Mind-blown by all the constant bullshit
Go back to your pathetic life – and let me be
Whatever happened to – just wanting to live your dream,
When no one cared about – the cover of a magazine
This is the price I pay – for the life I’ve made,
But I’m always finding a way to – Stand up,
Can’t you hear the – sound of – a thousand screaming voices,
Eager to watch you succeed
Give them something – real to believe
This is a song for the times I’ve failed
This is a song for the times I got it right
Maybe I’m just a boy – with a dream,
But my dreams are becoming a reality
This is a song for the times you’ve failed
This is a song for the times you got it right
Maybe you’re just someone with a dream,
But your dreams are so close you just have to believe it
Stand up, can’t you hear the sound, – of a thousand screaming voices
Whatever happened to – just wanting to live your dream,
When no one cared about – the cover of a magazine
This is the price I pay – for the life I’ve made,
But I’m always finding a way to – Stand up,
Can’t you hear the – sound of – a thousand screaming voices,
Eager to watch you succeed

We pulled into Denver
As the sun was lightin' up the Rockies
Checked into a cheap hotel & fell asleep
Holdin' each other close
We just knew in our hearts
This had to be a new beginning
Well I guess it goes to show you
Just how li'l some people know
CHORUS:
The first year in Denver
We were as happy as we could be
The good times I remember
We loved & heard, heard lovin' free
But then she dropped me in Denver
So I know I had at least a mile to fall
Is there life after Denver?
Is there life after Colorado at all?
I crawled out of Denver
Moved a little higher in the rockies
Decided I would try my hand pickin' up
The pieces that she left
Lord, it didn't take long to realize
That higher ain't always better
& it's awful cold & lonely
When you're king of the mountain all by yourself
(chorus)
Lord, is there life after Denver?
When you get up late for work in the morning
And somebody's broken into your car
Makes you feel like killing
Maybe you'd be willing
But you don't have to take it that far
Stand up, say who cares and stand up
Cos when things drag you down
You can't take it sitting down
Stand up
You catch you girl making love with the postman
And they're doing it in your very own bed
She says he's giving her a letter,
I think you should forget her
And go out with her sister instead
Stand up, kick the cat and stand up
Don't go crying on the floor,
Just kick them out the door
And stand up
Every now and then boy
You gotta take it on the chin
It's just another symptom ofthe world we're living in
Everydays a battle,
Sometimes you're gonna bruise
But if you let it get you down you'll lose
Stand up
Sit down
Sunday morning you relax with the papers
All week long you've been working so hard
Then you can't believe what you've seen on the page
About a road they're gonna build through you yard
Stand up, shout about it stand up
you don't have to beg them please
Don't go down on your knees
Stand up
If they're gonna tread on you
make them think before they do
Stand up
Stand up, dont take it lyaing down
Tonight, I'm okay
When the lights go down
And I hit the stage.
I'm alive, there's no way,
You can stop me now,
It's in my veins.
I can't wait,
Let's start the show!
It's time to see you stand up
Let me see your hands up
Wanna hear you shout it out
(Come on)
Tell me if you want it.
Stand up!
Let me see your hands up
Wanna hear you shout it out
Tell me if you're ready to go.
Ready to go!
Turn it up, let it grind,
Just plug me in, I'm amplified.
Can't stop me, block me!
Don't care if it's the death of me
Tickin' like a time bomb
Ready to blow.
Now it's time,
Let's start the show!
It's time to see you stand up
Let me see your hands up
Wanna hear you shout it out
(Come on)
Tell me if you want it.
Stand up!
Let me see your hands up
Wanna hear you shout it out
(Come on)
Tell me if you're ready to go.
Ready to go!
Time won't wait for anyone
Cause we don't live forever
And if you think I've had enough
I'm only getting started now
You'll see...
The lights are shining on me.
Yeah yeah
Wanna see you stand up
Let me see your hands up
Wanna hear you shout it out
Yeah!
Stand up!
Let me see your hands up
Wanna hear you shout it out
(Come on)
Tell me if you want it.
Stand up!
Let me see your hands up
Wanna hear you shout it out
(Come on)
Tell me if you're ready to go.
Tell me if you're ready to go.
20 years are done, Grew so fast and didn't know
Arbitrary fate again, a year lost, but will be more.
It's easy to complain and roar coz your tears are on the floor
You're fragile so vulnerable, But you're stronger than before
Stand up, face all your fears
We'll stay together through the years
That's a reason to go on
You've gotta, stand up, you're not alone
Fight untill all hopes are gone.
We're together, carry on
True friends are not gone, but all strangers have forgot
Your existence, name and face, we're not starting any war
You witness all this evidence and you're closed behind a door
It's useless to complain and roar, when you can only stare at the ceiling
Endure my friend, it's almost over
The worst is past; your weakness is something won't last
When you'll be ok, we'll go on holiday!
Our love is something true
Your bro's are here with you
There's no reason to give up he fight
We'll make it together
There's no more bad weather
Now we're standing here at your side
[Intro]
What's goin on world?
It's Pop Da Brown Hornet
Chillin wit Black, Blackstreet, Chauncey
This song is dedicated to, inspired by
Brother of mine, Poo Johnson
My love baby, this for you
[Pop Da Brown Hornet]
A childhood friend of mine, was shot to death
I visioned his body, fo' they lay him to rest
The autopsy showed he was hit in the head, in the chest
Weakened the strip, straight thru his flesh
Whoever responsible will see the judge
I hold no grudge, I fight evil with love
I hear no evil, and I see non either
Comin from believin the creator
As a juvenile, I would often sit and wonder
Starin out the window at the lightning and thunder
Will they better days for mom dukes and me, at birth
She wrapped up her dreams and gave them to me
Genetically, I could feel the energy
Pullin me towards my destiny, it was meant to be
Eventually, it'll all pay off
If you want it bad enough, you gotta give what it costs
Chorus: Chauncey Hannibal
Every woman, every man
To spread the news across the land
Stand up, stand up, stand up
Everybody, there has to be a better plan
Stand up, stand up, stand up
[Pop Da Brown Hornet]
Nothin in life for free, not even death
Can know and at em, cut out to be the best
With we form mistakes, no one was born perfect
Be careful who you love, because they might no deserve
The knowledge that I drop, pure enough to worship
As for Pop the individual, I'm just a mere mortal
I'm trying to make it out of poverty
Buy some property, build for the family
Establish and establishment
Put the proceeds I receive from entertainment
All I want is love-love, so I can retire the all black knockout glove
And just touch you in the mental, reach the next level
Weed out the devil, assemble the puzzle
Blow up a 8X10 so you can see the big picture
Take care of self, we can all get richer
Chorus
[Pop Da Brown Hornet]
Yo, any day could be our last, a world full of psychopaths
Learn ya math, or you just might crash
How to reality and into insanity
In this cold world we can't even trust family
Nowhere to turn when you stuck in between a
Concrete jungle and a pack of hyenas
Scavenger huntin, ain't no time for frontin
Brothers in the street with nothin
Always tryin to take somethin from somebody
They usually pray on the week,
sacrifice a life cuz somehow they gotta eat
No regrets when actin out threats
It's a different world when growin up inside the Projects
Outsiders get hawked by night riders
You bound to get game in a world full of liars
You gotta stand firm on shaky grounds
Yo Chauncey, break it down for Da Brown
Stand up
Ever had a hot date one of those can't wait and things go
a little too far
In the middle of a good night have you ever got right in
the back seat of your car
I said stand up have you ever been there
Stand up identify
Stand up tell us about it stand up testify
Ever met a woman late night roamin' party till your money
was gone
Smilin' Mona Lisa loaded up your visa and took the
bartender home
I said stand up have you ever been there...
[ guitar ]
Thought I was a he man do it just for me man knew just
what to do
Thought I was a hero she rated me a zero said honey child
you ain't through
I said stand up have you ever been there...
Stand up have you ever been there...
Jack was never a normal man
He never fit into the plan
Ain't as easy as it seems
When your living the American dream
He wants to runaway
Miles and miles and miles away
He walks thought the bosses door
Never gonna work in the stump no more
Stand Up!
If you wanna be free at last
Stand Up!
If you wanna forget the past
Stand Up!
If your living your life too fast
Stand Up!
Come on just have a blast
Na na na na na Na na na na

She was never a normal girl
Didn't fit into their world
She sang to pass the time
While she saved to make a dime
But then she ranaway
Miles and miles and miles away
Never payed to hear her songs
Of love just sing along
Na na na na na Na na na na
Stand Up!
We've got the right to love

Relentless
Breathless
Day to day failure, so much in every way.
Its homicide
Killing these dreams of mine
How can I survive?
I need this in my life.
Can dreams rise above this pain?
Show me a sign
Must be a way
Sometimes you’ve got to stand up
In time of trouble
You’ve got to still believe
This is no time to be waiting
Got to, you’ve got to achieve
Stand up right on the double
You’ve got no time to waste
This is the time to take over
So stand up! Stand up and take your place
Two roads
Diverged at one time
And I chose, don’t know why this is mine
It figures
No one picks road like this
Never ending
Never moving without a twist
Can dreams rise above this pain?
Show me a sign
Must be a way
Sometimes you’ve got to stand up
In time of trouble
You’ve got to still believe
This is no time to be waiting
Got to, you’ve got to achieve
Stand up right on the double
You’ve got no time to waste
This is the time to take over
Whatcha waitin' for yo
Everything is here and now, all around
So don't be shy it's time to party
Get your back up off the wall
You know what ya came here for, for sure
So don't be late let's get it started
Lean back, walk it out
Two steppin's what it's all about
Uh c'mon, rock with it now
Stand up now everybody

Open invitation

[Verse - 1]
How you ain't gon' FUCK! Bitch I'm me?
I'm the GOD DAMN reason you in VIP
CEO you don't have to see ID
I'm young, wild, and strapped like Chi-Ali
BLAOW! We ain't got nothing to worry about
Whoop ass, let security carry em out
Watch out for the medallion my diamonds are wreckless
Feels like a MIDGET is hanging from my neckless
I pulled up wit a million trucks
Looking, smelling, feeling like a million bucks-ahh!
Pass the bottles, the heat is on
We in the huddle all smoking that Cheech & Chong
What's wrong?! The club and moon is full
And I'm lookin for a THICK young lady to pull
One sure shot way to get em outta them pants
Take note to the brand new dance, like this
[Chorus]
[Verse - 2]
Go on wit ya big ass! lemme see something
Tell ya little friend he can quit mean mugging
I'm lit and I don't care what no one thinks
But where the FUCK is the waitress at wit my drinks?!
My people outside and they can't get in
We gon' rush the back door and break em in
The owner already pissed cause we sorta late
But our time and our clothes gotta coordinate
Most girls lookin right some lookin a mess
That's why they spilling drinks all over ya dress
But Louis Vuitton bras all over your breasts
Got me wanting to put hickies all over ya chest-ahh
C'mon! we gon party tonight
Y'all use mouth to mouth bring the party to life
Don't be scurred, show another part of your life
The more drinks in your system the harder to fight!
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Stand up! Stand up!
Stand up! Stand up!
[Verse - 3]
Damn right the Fire Marshall wanna shut us down
Get us out so someone can gun us down
We was two songs away from getting some cutta
Now we one song away from tearing da club up
Move over! Luda got something to say
Do it now cause 'tomorrow' ain't promised 'today'
Work wit me! let's become one with the beat
And don't worry bout me steppin all over ya feet
[Chorus]
[Outro]
Stand up! Stand up!
Stand up! Stand up!

Pleasure's all you'll ever feel from me
Stand up and shout

Behind my back
That shit won't last
You've brought it on
Your fucking self
The words you speak

It makes me sick
I will not let you bring me down
Know where you fucking stand
And don't let go

[Intro:]
Stand up!
You know what's up!
Can't nobody fuck with that Latin Don
[Sen Dog:]
I used to be a vato from the street
Had a lot of hunger, loved to compete
Want the whole world to know about my barrio
All the way to Cuba, Mexico and Cairo
They would know my name like they would know my cliqua
Got some game, que toda via, rrripa
Things have changed, now I'm a grande
Got two blammas livin with me at the chante
Game just ain't like it used to be
I can't find no vato I used to call me
So I go home enciento empienso
Don't let your mind play those pinchy juegos
Shake it off boss, show 'em you got huevos
No dejas nada chinga tu nuevos
Rife on my hip for my heina, my ninos
All my car knowledge they get my carino
Remember dog that, you can do all
Just believe in yo'self and have faith in God
Anybody don't like it can FUCK 'EM ALL
Caveza barriba I'm walkin tall
[Chorus:]
All the raza in the house stand up
Show that you're proud and you don't give a fuck
Let me see show that you got love for yo' gente
Somos muchos intelligente
When we unite, no one can harm us
Get in our way or try to stop us
Don't front ese, you know whassup
Can't nobody fuck with them latin thugs
[Sen Dog:]
Now, you're gonna have those pinchy tiempos
When all you need is food or silencio
Time for yourself to smoke calleno
Whatever it takes to make you contento
Relax with the fam and take some vacaciones
Don't deal with this or the pinchy horday
What seperates the men from the ninos
Is a big failure or a fly Benzino
I've had all of that, yo se lo que te digo
Gotta be there in the long run for my hijos
Look out for the youngsters and kick down glecha
Make sure they know all about the iglesia
Teach 'em your knowledge and help our sensia
Then we're gonna see a big differencia
Don't get trigger happy, you big maton
Cause it'll come back down on your own canton
Look out and have love for your gente
So we can move from the ride in the frente
Don't be hardheaded, yo sucker tu entiende
The mission put down by the big vato Senne
THIS IS NOT THE ONLY LOVE YOU HAVE
EVEN THOUGH IT'S NEVER HURT SO BAD
THIS IS FOR THE DREAMERS, THIS IS FOR BELIEVERS
GOTTA GIVE WHAT YOU HAVE
THIS IS NOT THE ONLY HEART TO BREAK
THIS IS FOR THE RISK YOU GOTTA TAKE
THIS IS FOR THE FIGHTERS, HOLD UP ALL YOUR LIGHTERS
GOTTA GIVE WHAT YOU HAVE
(b-sec)
NO MORE HOLDING ME DOWN
'CAUSE I NEVER WANTED TO BE LIKE THIS
GONNA TURN MY LIFE AROUND, YOU'LL SEE
ONLY ONE WAY LEFT TO GO
(chorus)
YOU GOTTA STAND UP,
'TIL YOU CAN'T GO NO FURTHER
MAYBE THEY DON'T DESERVE YA
MAYBE IT'S JUST A BLESSING IN DISGUISE
STAND UP, EVEN IF YOU DON'T WANNA
IT'LL JUST MAKE YOU STRONGER
OH, JUST TO KNOW YOU TRIED
YOU GOTTA STAND UP
OH, HANDS UP TO THE SKY
YOU GOTTA STAND UP
OH, JUST TO KNOW YOU TRIED
(verse 2)
GOT ANOTHER RIP UP IN MY JEANS
I'M STARING OUT THE SCENES
THIS IS FOR THE FADED, UNDERESTIMATED
IT CAN ONLY GET BETTER
BUT I'VE NEVER FELT SO HIGH
AND FALLEN DOWN SO LOW
I'M ALL OUT OF CONTROL
BUT IT CAN ONLY GET BETTER
(b-sec)
GET UP OFF OF THE GROUND
CAUSE I NEVER THOUGHT IT WOULD BE LIKE THIS
GONNA TURN MY LIFE AROUND, YOU'LL SEE
ONLY ONE WAY LEFT TO GO
(chorus)
YOU GOTTA STAND UP,
'TIL YOU CAN'T GO NO FURTHER
MAYBE THEY DON'T DESERVE YA
MAYBE IT'S JUST A BLESSING IN DISGUISE
STAND UP, EVEN IF YOU DON'T WANNA
IT'LL JUST MAKE YOU STRONGER
OH, JUST TO KNOW YOU TRIED
YOU GOTTA STAND UP
OH, HANDS UP TO THE SKY
YOU GOTTA STAND UP
OH, JUST TO KNOW YOU TRIED
(bridge)
LIKE A HIT AND RUN
AND YOUR HEART GOES NUMB
AND PAIN YOU CAN'T ESCAPE
WHEN THE RUG IS PULLED
OUT FROM UNDER YOU
AND YOUR SOULS ABOUT TO BREAK
THE TRAIN IS CRASHING
THE LIGHTS ARE FLASHING
YOU CAN'T GET OFF THE TRACK
YOU'RE AT AN ALL TIME LOW
BUT YOU CAN'T LOOSE HOPE
'CAUSE THERE'S AIN'T NO TURNING BACK
(chorus)
YOU GOTTA STAND UP,
'TIL YOU CAN'T GO NO FURTHER
MAYBE THEY DON'T DESERVE YA
MAYBE IT'S JUST A BLESSING IN DISGUISE
STAND UP, EVEN IF YOU DON'T WANNA
IT'LL JUST MAKE YOU STRONGER
OH, JUST TO KNOW YOU TRIED
YOU GOTTA STAND UP
OH, HANDS UP TO THE SKY
YOU GOTTA STAND UP
OH, JUST TO KNOW YOU TRIED
(outro)
THIS IS NOT THE ONLY LOVE YOU HAVE
EVEN THOUGH IT'S NEVER HURT SO BAD
THIS IS FOR THE DREAMERS, THIS IS FOR BELIEVERS
Stand up, walk with me
I know what you are
I cannot take much more of this game
I will not break. Won't you ever change?
I seem to always justify my life
You damn me every time I try
Stand up, don't you give up on me now
Stand up, don't you give up on me now
Stand up, don't you give up on me now
You're falling. Won't you stand up?
See me, clear your eyes
Don't push me aside
I cannot take much more of this game
I live in solitude. Will you ever change?
I seem to always justify my life
You damn me every time I try
Stand up, don't you give up on me now
Stand up, don't you give up on me now
Stand up, don't you give up on me now
You're falling. Won't you stand up?
Will you every try to change?
Will this always be the same?
Will we stand the test of time?
Or will we fail again?
Stand up, don't you give up on me now
Stand up, don't you give up on me now
Stand up, don't you give up on me now
We're falling. Won't you stand up?
Stand up... yeah. Won't you stand up?
Stand up, don't you give up on me now
Nobody said that it was easy
Nobody said that this is how it should be
I wanna be, I wanna dream, I wanna see what we are missing
Every step you take, I'll walk you through it
Every when you breake, I put it back together
If they wanna throw you to the ground
If they try to kick you when your down
Even if there's no one else around
I'll stand up, stand up for you
Always you and me, never gonna stop what we believe
Even if the world is on its knees I will sand up
I'll stand up, stand up for you
I know your past has made you cautions
You know our future is more that you can see
But I believe, I believe we can kick the door wide open
Every step you take, I'm walking through it
Even when you breake, I put it back together
If they wanna throw you to the ground
If they try to kick you when your down
Even if there's no one else around
I will sand up I will stand up for you
Always you and me never gonna stop what we believe
Even if the world is on it's knees I will sand up
I will stand up for you
We can turn this thing all around
We can make it with the hand untight
I'll stand up, stand up.
If they wanna throw you to the ground
If they try to kick you when your down
Even if there's no one else around
I will sand up I will stand up for you
Always you and me never gonna stop what we believe
Even if the world is on it's knees I will sand up
I will stand up for you
Anything you want, anything you need
Anything that you want me to be
It's time to open up the memories of your past
And its time to move on
It's time to open up the shadows of your heart
And it's time to move on
Cause it's a great time to live and it's time to
Stand up and be counted on
Cause it's a great time to live and it's time to
Stand up and be counted on
It's time to open up and shed a little light
On your soul
Cause the box you put your heartache in got
Lost or swept out to sea
Now it's time just to move on
And it's a long long road to carry on I've got to
Stand up and be counted on, It's a long long
Road and I've got to be strong.
And it's a long long road to carry on I've got to
Stand up and be counted on, It's a long long
Road and I've got to be strong.
Yea it's a long long road to carry on I've got to
Stand up and be counted on. It's a long long
Road and I've got to be strong.
Yea it's a long long road to carry on I've got to
Stand up and be counted on. It's a long long
