Stand Up

 I know it’s cliché to say everyday be positive cuz life is filled with obstacles and broken promises when the sun don’t shine, you’re battling time on a search to find answers that you never find, sometimes, you feel like giving up, throw your hands to the sky cuz you’re so fed up, sometimes, you truly loose your hope, trying to find an escape so you drink and smoke, than the next day comes and it doesn’t get better, our generations lost and we need to go get her, so many of us, got folks that don’t get us it’s not the same as it was, their mentality is 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 and lost our sense of pride I want to change the way I think, at least I am going to try

Chorus

Stand Up for what you believe

Don’t be afraid

It ain’t easy

To have hope when you are always broke but you gotta keep on keeping on just the same my baby

There’s a hopeless sense of air, that breaths around the world, trying to latch on to something like riches and pearls, trying 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 directions with no path to follow you can’t just go to college, and get a degree, for sure make enough to support your family we’re an angry generation bitter about our situation, weapons to accessible to take out our frustrations, with violence involved guns resolve, minor disputes in school’s 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

Chorus

Repeat

Repeat
