Stand Up

 

Well I can’t wait any longer

‘Cause I won’t get any stronger

Waiting for you to wait for me

While we’re searching for the answers

I can feel the social cancer

Dividing us in times of need

And it feeds on hopelessness

And the feeling that we’re powerless

To ever change this world

 

Stand up now for your dream

Stand up for what you believe

Yes you can be free

When you stand up

Now is the time to stand up

 

As the collective reason waivers

The earth’s situation looks graver

Who’s gonna save us from ourselves

But we’ve got all that it takes

And I know it’s never too late

To create a better world

 

Stand up now for your dream

Stand up for what you believe

Yes you can be free

When you stand up

Now is the time to stand up

 

What will it take ‘til we’re free

To act on what we believe

When will we awaken to see

Our strength is in our unity

 

Well the signs are all so clear

The time is surely here

For us to stir the winds of change

So take action     Use your voice

And make the conscious choice

To make a difference in this world

 

Stand up now for the dream

Stand up for what you believe

Yes we can be free

When we stand up

Now is the time to stand up
