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
