3. Stand
"Stand"
We all carry the cross and speak what we're taugh
Lie and money become the white man's god
We've burned all our bridges one too many times
The time has come now to draw the line
[Chorus]
You know you've got to
Stand
Stand
Stand for what you believe
You know you've got to Stand
Stand
Stand for what you believe
Oh, you got to Stand for what you believe
Alright, alright
You got to listen now
Express yourself in the face of change
Repress yourself, you surely seal your fate
You got to look inside
The answer lies in wait
Resurrect before it's too late
[Chorus]
Somebody rescue me
Come down and rescue me
I know the soul of a good man
Has got to be free
When you stand, stand for what you believe
[Chorus x2]
We all carry the cross and speak what we're taugh
Lie and money become the white man's god
We've burned all our bridges one too many times
The time has come now to draw the line
[Chorus]
You know you've got to
Stand
Stand
Stand for what you believe
You know you've got to Stand
Stand
Stand for what you believe
Oh, you got to Stand for what you believe
Alright, alright
You got to listen now
Express yourself in the face of change
Repress yourself, you surely seal your fate
You got to look inside
The answer lies in wait
Resurrect before it's too late
[Chorus]
Somebody rescue me
Come down and rescue me
I know the soul of a good man
Has got to be free
When you stand, stand for what you believe
[Chorus x2]
