Yeah, stand up   What do you believe in?   Yeah, stand up, come on      Just a face in the crowd   Feeling lost, down and out   Can you hear me now?      Millions more just like you   Afraid to do what they wanna do   Am I getting through?      Lots of losers hanging 'round   Only there to bring you down   Get your feet up off the ground   Get up, get up, get up      If you don't stand for something   You will fall for anything   If you don't stand for something   You will fall for anything, get up      Don't you know that you're worth   As much as anyone on earth?   You're a mega star      Put your hands in the sky   Let your freaky colors fly   Get 'em way up high      You got style and you got game   So get it out, don't be ashamed   Let everybody know your name   Get it on out, now, what's you name?      If you don't stand for something   You will fall for anything   If you don't stand for something   You will fall for anything, get up      You can stand for peace, you can stand for war   I stand in the square, never stood before   I take a stand for my son like Afeni Shakur   I take a stand like I'm 4 double six 64      Stand alone in my struggle   Can't make me stand down   Make 'em crash and burn   Mayday, mayday, mayday down   Get up, stand up, get your damn hands up   If they're not shackled to your feet   Get some handcuffs      We need solutions not propaganda   Let the tape roll, make the whole world stand up   Hold your position, don't go backwards   X still grindin', the west keep shining      Don't look too long, you might get blinded   Follow your heart, your head might just find it   I pray for the strength to handle what my city brings   Better stand for some or you're bound to fall for anything      If you don't stand for something   You will fall for anything, get up   If you don't stand for something   You will fall for anything      Everybody's got a voice   Now's the time to make some noise   Let me hear you now      Get up
