Stand for Something
The world’s veins are tearing and a crying out loud
It’s heart beats strong the fire never goes out
Music is the healer of cultures throughout
Get out of your chair take a stand and shout
You feel it inside deep down and about
It’s the passionate heat you can’t live without
Cultivated seed that begins to sprout
Channel the spark and quench the drought
CHORUS
You got to stand for something
Or you stand to fall
You got to stand for something
Or you don’t stand for nothing at all
Nothing at all
When we beat with one blood a power exists
Walk tall and in the name of peace resist
Shining through from within like the morning mist
If the people start to plummet and grab they fist
Like the rush that you felt when you first were kissed
Turn it around repair the world assist
Speaking your mind until the fighting’s dismissed
Today’s the day to raise your hand and clench your fist
CHORUS |
