Stand Up Lyrics

Stand Up lyrics

OOOoo hoO hOoo

Uhhh

I know its cliché to say everyday be positive,


Life’s’ filled with obstacles and broken promises,

When the sun
don’t shine your battling time,

On the search to find answers that you
never find,

Sometimes... you feel like giving up,

Throw your hands
to the sky cos’ you’re so fed up,

Sometimes... you truly lose your
hope

Trying to find an escape so you drink and smoke

Then the next
day comes and it doesn’t get better

Our generations lost, n we needa’ go
get her

so many of us got folks that don't get us

it's not the same
as it was, their mentality's stuck

in their old ways, but it's not the
same





In the past 20 years things have really changed, 

We’ve lost our sense of hope; n lost our sense of pride

I wanna change
the way I think, at least I’m going to try.



Stand up for what you
believe in, don’t be afraid [Don’t you be afraid]

It aint easy, to have
hope when you’re always broke

But you know you’ve gotta keep, keeping on
just the same

My baby...



It’s a hope a sense of air the
breeze around the world,

Trina t latch on to somethin’ like riches and
pearls, 

Tryin’ to find a sense of purpose in material things,

Distracted from yourself when your cell phone rings,

Hey

I
understand how it feels, how life can be so hard to deal with,

Hey,

I’ve been down that road, searching for direction with no path to follow,

You can’t just go to college and get a degree, 

Fo’ sure it’d make
enough to support your family 

We’re an angry generation littered by the
situation

Weapons too accessible to take out of frustration

With
violence involved, guns resolve

Minor disputes in schools bathroom
stalls

I’m not sure how to process all the thoughts I have

I know
times are tough but it’s not all bad

Come on



Stand up for
what you believe in [You’ve gotta believe], don’t be afraid [Don’t you be
afraid]

It aint easy, to have hope when you’re always broke

But you
know you’ve gotta keep, keeping on just the same

My baby...



It’s up to us ya’ll 

Our generation is way too complacent; 

We
have a war going on,

And so many of us are not free

Its time for us
to make a stand

And come together

N don’t just talk revolution, act
revolution,

Stand up, come on.



Stand up for what you believe
in, don’t be afraid [Don’t you be afraid]

It aint easy 

[It might
not be easy baby], 

To have hope when you’re always broke 

[But you
gotta have some hope]

But you know you’ve gotta keep, keeping on just the
same

My baby...



Stand up for what you believe in, don’t be
afraid [Don’t you be afraid]

It aint easy, to have hope when you’re
always broke

But you know you’ve gotta keep, keeping on just the same

My baby...



Stand up for something, no matter what it is,

What you’re unhappy with

Change your path,

Change your life,

Yeah,

We deserve equality, come on.
